"It's very simple, stay and plant vegetables for me!"
The Lord looked at Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin and spoke word by word, as if he had anticipated the choice of Lin Xiao and others.
Yu Xilin and Lin Xiao looked at each other, with a solemn look in their eyes. Apparently they didn't expect that their lord would let them farm!
Lin Xiao recalled the way the man in black led by him was holding vegetables and jumping for joy, and she probably understood the reason.
Vegetables are extremely precious on this island!
But it shouldn’t be!
According to Lin Xiao's understanding of this island, this island is extremely rich in resources and wild vegetables emerge in endlessly. How could there be a shortage of vegetables?
This unscientific!
The Lord seemed to see through what Lin Xiao was thinking, and he said calmly:
"Back then, the leader of the Ming Dynasty fled to this island with a group of people. They were all equipped with craftsmen, palace maids, royal chefs, and bodyguards, but the only thing missing was the peasants."
"Over the years, we have tried to grow our own vegetables, but with little success. We can only eat mainly meat, which has made us weak and even contracted strange diseases."
The Lord glanced at Lin Xiao and silently took off the grimace mask on his face, revealing the old face inside.
His face is much paler than ordinary people, his face is full of wrinkles, his skin is rough, his eyes are sunken, and he looks very scary.
"It's scary, isn't it? You've only just turned 30 years old alone!"
The Lord smiled bitterly, with deep sadness in his eyes.
Lin Xiao knew that the reason why the Lord and the others became like this was actually related to the long-term lack of vitamins and carbohydrates.
"Teaching people how to fish is worse than teaching them how to fish. My lord, I can teach you how to grow vegetables and some simple crops!"
Lin Xiao looked at his lord, his eyes full of determination, as if he had made some kind of important decision.
When the Lord heard this, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but then he hid it, looked at Lin Xiao, and asked:
"really?"
"Yes, as long as the master agrees to let us leave after I teach you those skills!"
Lin Xiao nodded firmly and looked at his lord.
The Lord pondered for a moment, and finally nodded:
"Yes! As long as you teach us the skills you know to the people of the Ming Dynasty, I will let you go!"
“It’s a deal!”
Lin Xiao's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
She did not believe that the lord would let them leave the island easily, but in order for Lin Xiao to willingly teach her skills, the lord would appease her first. She had to use this time to let them prepare the boat and food quietly.
good.
"Then... let's start now! Please take us to your planting base first!"
Lin Xiao stood up straight and said respectfully.
When the lord heard this, he called a girl without any hesitation. The girl was none other than the girl who raised the savages.
"Hongye, take them to see our planting island."
Hong Ye glanced at Lin Xiao and then at her lord. Seeing the determination in his eyes, she nodded and said to Lin Xiao and others:
"Please come with me!"
Lin Xiao and others immediately followed Hong Ye and walked out of the palace.
After a short while, they came to a rockery. When they bent down, they found a winding path, and the moist sea breeze rushed towards them.
The end of the path leads to a cave with water, where several small boats are docked.
After getting on the boat, Hong Ye skillfully shook the oar and slowly headed towards the sea.
Lin Xiao and the others sat in the boat, looking at the beautiful scenery outside and feeling the cool sea breeze.
At this moment, they were comfortable.
Hongye was very quiet, not saying a word, just rowing the boat steadily, occasionally looking up at the sky, with a touch of longing and melancholy in her eyes.
"arrive."
Suddenly, Hongye said, his voice calm and calm.
Hearing Hongye's voice, Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin turned their heads and looked outside.
At this time, the ship had docked at a small island, with endless green lawns on the shore.
“What a beautiful island!”
Lin Xiao sighed in admiration, but did not dare to take another look.
She knew that she couldn't covet this beautiful scenery, because what they needed to accomplish next was more important than this beautiful scenery!
"You two gentlemen, please follow Hong Ye."
After Hongye finished speaking, he jumped off the boat first and walked towards the center of the island.
Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin looked at each other and followed closely behind her.
Along the way, I met many people dressed as farmers. They looked at Lin Xiao and the others with doubts and vigilance in their eyes.
Hongye took the two of them to the center of the island, which was filled with dense green vegetables.
But because they were planted too densely, these green vegetables looked malnourished and wilted.
Seeing this, Hongye frowned, walked forward quickly, and asked the farmer who was looking after the vegetables eagerly:
"What's going on? Why did the vegetables become like this?"
"I, I don't know what's going on! I was fine yesterday..."
The farmer was frightened by Hongye's fierce tone and stammered when he spoke.
It's really not his fault. He takes care of these vegetables with all his heart, and he doesn't dare to be careless in the slightest.
It was fine yesterday, but it looks like this early this morning. Isn't this a lie?
When Hongye heard this, her brows furrowed even deeper. She looked at her surroundings, and finally her eyes fell on the piece of wilted green vegetables, and an ominous premonition suddenly surged through her heart.
"These vegetables are planted so densely, it would be strange if they don't wilt!"
Lin Xiao also frowned, glanced at the red leaves, then at the wilted vegetables, and sneered.
Hongye's face turned pale when he heard this:
"Do you know how to grow vegetables?"
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she wished she could slap herself in the face. Isn't this a nonsense question?
If they didn't know how to grow vegetables, why did the Lord let him bring them to the planting island?
Lin Xiao saw this and smiled: "I just understand a little bit."
Understand a little bit?
Hong Ye looked at Lin Xiao with wide eyes and couldn't help but doubt Lin Xiao's words.
Looking at this confident look, he doesn’t look like someone who knows a little bit!
The farmer on the side stopped immediately when he heard Lin Xiao's words. He pointed at Lin Xiao and shouted angrily:
"What do you know? Do you know how to grow vegetables? Just talk nonsense here! Do you know how precious vegetables are here? How can we eat enough if we don't plant them more densely?"
When other farmers heard the commotion here, they also gathered around and pointed at Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin.
“It’s really shameful to just point fingers when you don’t even understand!”
"Why did Miss Hongye bring someone who knows nothing to the plantation island?"
"Look at their shabby looks, are they here to steal our vegetables?"
"I look like the same old person!"
"..."
They didn't believe Lin Xiao at all, apparently they also felt that Lin Xiao was not an expert in growing vegetables, but a robber who only knew how to brag!
