Chapter 490 Natural Disasters and War-torn World 38
The progress of land reclamation was much faster than Ling Xue expected. Ling Xue even admired the efficiency of these refugees.
Fortunately, Ling Xue's cornucopia was powerful, otherwise she might not be able to provide sweet potato seedlings.
Ling Xue's operation was also very simple. She cleared a piece of land in the garden, planted diced sweet potatoes, and then used the wood power to induce growth.
When the sweet potato seedlings grow long enough, cut them into sections that can be cut, then tie them into a bundle and put them aside.
After all the sweet potato seedlings have been cut, the cuttings will continue to be produced, and the process will continue until there are enough sweet potato seedling cuttings to plant a thousand acres of land.
At night, Ling Xue placed three more bundles of sweet potato seedlings on the three replicas of the cornucopia, and by the next morning there would be three hundred more bundles of sweet potato seedling cuttings available for cutting.
In this way, it is much faster than Ling Xue's use of wood power.
However, Ling Xue was not sure whether the sweet potato seedlings copied in this way would have any impact on the yield, so she would rather spend more time using the wood power to induce growth than use the cornucopia to copy more.
When the results of this batch of experiments come out, she will know what to do next year.
"Little Taozi, little Taozi, come here!"
Lingxue called Xiao Taozi over. She planned to let Xiao Taozi be responsible for cutting the sweet potato seedlings.
After all, Xiao Taozi was considered an experienced person. If she guided Xiao Taozi in advance, there would be no problem.
"Here we come!" Xiao Taozi was making tea for Ling Xue. When she heard Ling Xue calling her, she immediately ran over.
"Master, what are your orders?"
Ling Xue smiled and assigned the task to Xiao Taozi: "I plan to put you in charge of planting sweet potatoes. How about it? Do you have confidence?"
Xiao Taozi almost jumped up with excitement: " No problem, I promise to complete the task!"
Then she didn't know what she thought of, and Xiao Taozi felt a little sluggish.
After Ling Xue saw it, she immediately asked: "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Xiao Taozi shook her head and explained: "It's okay for me to watch the sweet potato planting work, but who will take care of the young master? ? I don't worry about these maids in Fucheng, they are all very dishonest!"
Lingxue burst out laughing when she heard this. She comforted Xiao Taozi: "I don't need anyone to take care of me. Don't worry, wait for the sweet potato. After the planting is done, you can just come back and take care of her."
Xiao Taozi suddenly became happy when she heard that Ling Xue would not have anyone around her, so she was asked to come back when she was done.
The young master still values her. He would rather wait for her than wait for her. What a good master!
There are many wealthy families in Yunyang City who do not intend to stay. They are not optimistic about Young Master Shen, for fear of being implicated if he stays.
However, they were also afraid of offending Young Master Shen, so they came up with a way to please the Shen family.
They planned to give all the fields under their name to Ling Xue before leaving, so that even if Young Master Shen succeeds in the future, he will not be too harsh on them.
This idea was also influenced by Ling Xue's latest land reclamation policy. Don't you, Mr. Shen, want to farm? It just so happens that we have good fields in our hands, so let’s use them for you to plant!
They were leaving anyway, and these lands would fall into Young Master Shen's hands even if they didn't give them to him. If they didn't want to be more generous, just give them to him, and it would appear that they were generous.
Just like that, within three days, Ling Xue actually had 50,000 to 60,000 acres of prime farmland in her hands.
