3378 Pandora Star Farming
After chatting with some people in Guyan City, Qiu Feng decided to walk around alone like the Seven Demon Stars and observe the development of Pandora Star with his own eyes.
Qiu Feng commandeered a gryphon from the garrison camp in Xiaoyueying Town, and then began to fly around the Pandora planet. He thought that he would stay in the game for several more months, and would have to follow Li Pingyang and others after returning.
The discussion was about coping with the population peak, so Qiu Feng did not start the inspection directly from the territory of Pandora Province this time, but started the inspection from the beginning.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Qiu Feng saw a farmland with at least tens of thousands of acres of connected farmland in the air. Many people were working in the fields, so Qiu Feng landed his griffon and saw an old farmer on the field.
While they were resting, Qiu Feng approached him. When the old farmer saw Qiu Feng, he hurriedly wanted to get up, but Qiu Feng gently pressed the old farmer's shoulder and said with a smile: "Sit down, old man. It's okay. I'll just come over and take a look."
"
The old farmer said in fear: "Master Star Lord, how about this?"
Qiu Feng patted the old farmer on the shoulder and asked: "Old man, how many more days will it take to plant this year's crops?"
The old farmer then returned to normal a little bit and said: "Reporting to Lord Star Lord, it will take about four or five days to finish. The old man was originally a soldier of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was already very uncomfortable to be a soldier at such an old age.
Appropriate, I lost six fingers on the battlefield a few years ago.
Fortunately, Lord Star Lord’s magic soldiers have unified the world, so that this old man can live to smell the smell of this earth again.”
Qiu Feng smiled and asked: "Old man, after all your hard work this year, can the food you have harvested be enough for your family?"
The old farmer replied: "There is enough food there. At home, the old man still has an old wife, three concubines, four daughters-in-law, five grandchildren, and seven granddaughters. He cultivates ten acres of thin farmland. After a year of hard work, he can earn more than 3,000 yuan."
Half of the kilograms of food will be handed over to the empire, and the empire will levy another 20% on behalf of the Star Lord. What is left for his family to eat and drink is only 00,900 kilograms of food.
However, it is much better than the previous few years when there was no harvest. In fact, 00900 kilograms of grain, adding more water when cooking, and drinking porridge every day can barely cope with it for a year. There are 21 people in the family, and we also raise some chickens and ducks.
, although it is not said to live well, but at least he will not starve to death. The plunder of the end of the world
Some people said a few days ago that in the area where the northern border of the empire connects with the Star Lord’s territory, one acre of land can produce thousands of kilograms of grain. If we can also plant the super-yielding seeds blessed by the gods, the life of the whole family will definitely be improved.
Much better.”
Qiu Feng nodded, reached out and took out two bags, one large and one small, from the Nirvana bracelet, handed them to the old farmer and said: "Old man, meeting each other is fate. This small bag contains what you call the seeds blessed by the gods, but they are seeds."
In dry land, sowing is done in mid-May and harvested in October. At least three thousand kilograms of grain can be harvested from one acre of land.
The other bag is fifty kilograms of grain, which I gave to your family, hoping to give your grandchildren a full meal."
The old farmer stood up again in fear and said: "Master Star Lord, how can this happen? My parents and grandson are all thirteen this year. If I persist for two more years, I can help the old man support his family, Lord Star Lord"
Qiu Feng was already riding a griffin and flying towards the distance.
In the American Eagle Millet Empire, the Puxiong Maozi Empire, and the Franroman Empire, Qiu Feng would come down once or twice to talk to some farmers resting in the fields. Qiu Feng would talk to every farmer who communicated with them.
Send out a small bag of high-yielding grain seeds and about fifty kilograms of grain.
And farmers who have obtained high-yielding grain seeds are warned not to eat the grain harvested in the first year as much as possible, but to continue to expand the sowing range of such high-yielding grain seeds in the second year.
Generally, when Qiu Feng comes down and sees people sowing paddy fields, he will usually give them high-yielding dryland crops such as potatoes. If he sees people who are in dry land, he will often give him high-yielding rice seeds. The purpose of this is very simple, that is, to stimulate stimulation.
Farmers who obtain high-yielding grain seeds can consciously cultivate more farmland.
In the Kingdom of Wales of the Great Never-Set Sun Empire, Qiu Feng lowered the gryphon again. This time the farmer sitting in the field was a middle-aged woman. The restoration of the Kingdom of Wales basically relied on the efforts of the Seven Demons Expeditionary Force.
, so the Seven Demon Army's mass base in the Kingdom of Wales is relatively better.
As soon as the female farmer saw Qiu Feng coming, she immediately stood up and said hello: "Master Star Lord, why are you here?"

Qiu Feng smiled and motioned for the farmers to sit down and talk, and asked: "Are you almost finished with spring plowing?"
The female farmer smiled and said: "Reporting to Lord Star, we have already sown seventy-seven. Under your protection, our Kingdom of Wales's tax revenue is only 20%. Lord Star Lord, your tax revenue is also only 20%. About 60% of the annual harvest belongs to us.
I own it, and the seeds I sow are always high-yielding seeds provided by you, Lord Star Lord. The harvest every year is enough for the family, and a part of it can be sold to the kingdom in exchange for money to improve life."
Qiu Feng was stunned and asked: "Oh, how many people are there in your family? How many acres of land are you cultivating? Can you be busy yourself?"
The female farmer said: "Reporting to Lord Star, there is a mother-in-law in the grassroots family who can no longer work in the fields, but she raises more than a dozen chicks at home and can provide some eggs for the children to improve their food.
In addition, there are three sons, two daughters, and several sisters-in-law. Because all the men died on the battlefield and the children are better than my children, they were brought to live together. They all add up to a population.
A total of 3 acres of paddy fields and 5 acres of dry land can still be cultivated and sown with high-yielding grain seeds. 3 acres of paddy fields can harvest more than 4,500 kilograms of grain a year, and 5 acres of dry land can harvest more than 5,000 kilograms of grain. The total can reach 10,000 kilograms of grain.
After excluding taxes, there are still more than 6,000 kilograms of grain left for a year.
I am really grateful to Lord Star Master for providing good seeds, otherwise we, the orphans and widowed mothers, would not be able to support our family on this small amount of land."
Qiu Feng still took out fifty kilograms of grain and a small bag of high-yielding grain seeds for her, because her eldest daughter was already 14 years old and had not found the right person to marry. Next year she would be a very important daughter.
With help, maybe some new farmland can be reclaimed this year.
At this point, Qiu Feng's one-week free inspection in Pandora has ended. When he left Xiaoyueying Town a week ago, Qiu Feng had already left the problem of coping with the population peak to Li Pingyang and her Governor's Mansion. Now is the time
It's time to go back.
After returning the gryphon to the garrison in the Great Sun Empire, Qiu Feng teleported back directly.
