    "It's not a good harvest, I can only say that I planted enough for one person to eat." Regarding Li Wensheng's expression of envy, Chen Xin just shook his head slightly reservedly.

    Although the yield of rice in the field is good, it is really not a bumper harvest, especially since he is growing upland rice. Compared with rice, the yield is only 60-70% of that of rice.

    After hearing Chen Xin's explanation, Li Wensheng could only nod his head in understanding and agreed with Chen Xin's view, but he also put forward an idea: "Writer, can you turn this place into paddy fields? If you grow rice,  Or will the yield of paddy fields be higher?"

    "Paddy field? Make paddy fields underground?" Chen Xin frowned, feeling that this was a bit unrealistic.

    However, Li Wensheng explained: "Of course it is not possible to cultivate traditional irrigated paddy fields underground, but what if you, as a writer, use hydroponics? It should be possible to grow rice on hydroponics trays and use the water cultivation method."

    Li Wensheng¡¯s suggestion inspired Chen Xin a lot. He hurriedly asked: "Rice itself is an aquatic crop. Isn¡¯t it planted directly in the water? Why is there still a water cultivation method?"

    "Although rice is planted directly in water, there are still requirements. There should not be too much water, otherwise it will become waterlogged." After all, Li Wensheng has been planting land for a long time, so he understands this naturally: "And rice is also  Only the rhizome part is soaked in water. If the leaves are also soaked in water, they will inevitably get sick, so the water for planting rice should not be too much. As for the water planting method, the rice is fixed on the water surface with a planting tray, and the root system is still soaked in the water.  in the water, but the rest is above the water.¡±

    Hearing Li Wensheng¡¯s explanation, Chen Xin suddenly understood. He nodded and said, ¡°I understand what you said, but this planting method sounds simple, but it should be difficult to operate in practice, right?¡±

    "It's not easy. I've seen people do it before, and it's not very easy. But it was done on a lake. It's a greenhouse, so it's still different." Li Wensheng admitted that there are technical difficulties in growing rice like this, but it doesn't mean it's completely  It can't be done.

    Chen Xin nodded in understanding and said nothing more, and Li Wensheng also took the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.

    After sending Li Wensheng away, Chen Xin returned to the shelter, still thinking about what Li Wensheng mentioned about growing rice on the water.

    If rice can be grown using hydroponics, Chen Xin can certainly calculate how much the yield will increase. This is an attractive enough idea.

    Normally, the yield per mu of upland rice is only about eight or nine hundred kilograms per season, but the yield of rice is much higher. Even if you don't count those super rices in Yan country that have a yield of tons per mu, even ordinary rice,  The yield per mu can also reach from 1,000 to 1,200 jins, and the higher-yielding varieties can even reach around 1,500 jins.

    In addition, rice can be harvested twice or three times a year in most areas of Yan State. As long as the farmers are a little more diligent and use scientific methods, there will be no problem in growing one or two tons of food from the ground in a year.  .

    If it were upland rice, even if it was grown in a greenhouse like Chen Xin, it would take three crops a year to obtain a yield of more than one ton.

    Although high-yield rice relies heavily on hybrid breeding of rice seeds and the use of fertilizers, even so, being able to produce more grains is very tempting for Chen Xin.

    ?Perhaps when you upgrade your greenhouse next time, you can make a modification to the current planting mode?

    Chen Xin seriously thought about the feasibility of this idea. With the system in hand, even if he really changed the land in front of him into paddy fields, he was not worried that his idea would not be realized.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    In addition to the ten fish sent by Li Wensheng, Li Yulong also quickly sent the seeds promised to Chen Xin.

    Peppers, eggplants, spinach, coriander, tomatoes, white radish, lettuce, chrysanthemum, long beans, lentils, red amaranth, water spinach

    Chen Xin counted the packets of seeds sent by Li Yulong, with a happy smile on his face.

    The seed package he originally purchased included these common crops. According to Chen Xin's original idea, he should grow food in half of the land, vegetables in a quarter of the land, and four more in his greenhouse.  One-third of the land is planted with fruits.

    In this way, even if the channels for obtaining food from the outside world are cut off, he can still eat and drink in the underground shelter.

    But God is not as good as man. Who would have thought that when he bought seeds, the courier did not deliver them to him?

    Chen Xin thought that he would only be able to eat cabbage, lettuce and carrots after the end of the world.

      But now Chen Xin no longer has this kind of trouble. After having this batch of seeds sent by Li Yulong, Chen Xin can live a life of growing whatever he wants, greatly enriching his recipes, so that he will not be overwhelmed.  The intermediate chef certificate became a piece of waste paper.

    And there is something that makes Chen Xin particularly happy and excited, which are the seeds of more than a dozen kinds of fruits.

    There are mangoes, watermelons, strawberries, dates, cantaloupes, kiwis, oranges, lychees Although some of these varieties are no longer easy to grow, like strawberries, watermelons, and grapes, Chen Xin can definitely grow them in your own greenhouse.  Plant it.

    Hey is pitiful, he really has never eaten fruits for almost half a year.

    This made him want to plant something first after getting the seeds, so as to comfort his long-awaited stomach.

    Fortunately, Chen Xin restrained this impulse.

    The hydroponic planting trays in his greenhouse are now used to grow vegetables. Before this batch of vegetables is harvested, it is impossible for him to pull out the vegetables currently planted and replace them with fruits.

    Although the fields are now vacant, Chen Xin decided to continue planting rice instead of moving the fields to grow fruits after some consideration.

    Of course, after this batch of carrots is harvested, Chen Xin still plans to reduce the carrot planting area to a certain extent, free up a small piece of land to grow strawberries and the like, and improve the food.

    In addition, Chen Xin must also consider what Li Yulong wants to get from him after giving him so many benefits.

    You must know that Li Yulong came to Chen Xin several times. Except for the fruit and vegetable machine, which was not a valuable item, the two hams and a large number of seeds he sent were all very popular hard currencies in the last days.

    Chen Xin does not feel that his relationship with Li Yulong is so good that he can give himself things without asking for anything in return. There is no good thing in this world that does not ask for anything in return. There is nothing before the apocalypse, and there will be nothing after the apocalypse.

    Chen Xin just agreed to cooperate, but the cooperation has not yet begun. Li Yulong has invested so much up front, and all he wants to get is more.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
