Chapter 9: 9. Barren land in Peanut Village

The jujube red fire dragon horse carried Liszt, the knight of the earth, across the muddy land and came to Peanut Tunnel. Peanut Tun is a much smaller settlement than a village, with seven or eight thatched cottages scattered sparsely.

"What are you stunned for? When you see the lord coming, why don't you kneel down and salute!" The clerk in the town flexibly knocked on the door of every peasant household.

The people who live here are serfs.

Coming out of the leaking house, the expression on his face was numb with the oppression of life, and he stood at the door dumbly, at a loss. Under the loud scolding of the clerk, they knelt on the ground one by one and saluted in Liszt's direction.

The actions of adults are numb.

Only a few bare-bottomed children raised their heads from time to time and looked at Liszt with big dirty but bright eyes. Then he was slapped on the head by an adult, and he knelt down on the ground like them, his forehead almost touching the ground.

"Who is the steward of Peanut Village?" Liszt asked.

Gao Ertai rode on his horse, as if it had nothing to do with him. He didn't know who was in charge of Peanut Village. A clerk said, "If you go back to your lord, it's the lame old George."

"Please come over."

The clerk quickly pulled over an old man who was lame and unable to walk very well. The old man was covered in patched clothes, and his dry body seemed to dry up at any time.

"Lord Lord, old George is here."

The clerk pushed and shoved the old man, and seemed to want the old man to salute quickly, but the old man seemed very nervous, standing stiffly, at a loss.

Liszt waved his hand and asked the clerk to retreat, and said gently: "Old George, don't be nervous, I am Liszt Baron Tulip, the lord of Flower Town. I heard that there is a problem with the peanuts in Peanut Village, you take us there. Tian Li will see if we can solve this problem."

"Ah, oh, Baron... Lord Lord..." Old George stammered nervously, "I'll lead the way... Thank God... Peanut Town is saved... Lord Lord is here to save us!"

Excited old George can even take the wind when he walks.

Liszt has inspected the farmland, but he just stood outside and glanced at it, and now he is really looking at the farmland. Because they were all serfs' fields, there were no ridges. Each piece of long farmland had only a ravine as the dividing line. Different serfs planted different fields.

Almost 90% of the output of the farmland belongs to the nobles, that is, Liszt.

The remaining ten percent is their ration.

at this time.

The peanut fields that were supposed to be green were green and yellow. All the peanuts were gone, and they were paralyzed on the ground. The land was wet, so obviously the serfs did not miss the watering, but unfortunately watering did not make the flowers come alive.

Old George wiped his tears and said excitedly: "Lord, we are not lazy, we fetch water three times a day, but the peanuts are still dying. Now there is only the field that Archie planted, and the peanuts haven't fallen yet, but I can't stand it anymore, and some of the leaves are starting to turn yellow."

Following the direction of old George's finger, Liszt saw the long field in the middle of the peanut farmland.

The central part of the long field is green, and it is much more energetic than the yellow-blue hairy peanuts around it.

Liszt got off his horse and walked into the farmland. He bent down and pulled out a yellowed peanut seedling. He was about to observe carefully when Gao Ertai suddenly said, "Liszt, you shouldn't touch these dirty things, what do you need to do? A group of serfs will do it." Although he is a poor knight, he looks down on the commoners more than the average nobles mentally.

Liszt ignored it.

Instead, he repeatedly observed the peanut seedlings in his hands to determine the cause.

He is not an agronomist, but he cultivated fields as a child and is no stranger to agriculture. Peanuts of the two worlds, some aspects are similar, and some aspects are unfamiliar. But basically it can be judged that the peanut seedlings in the hands are caused by malnutrition.

"Will the fields be watered with ash, or manure?"

"What?" Old George didn't know why, "Lord Lord, we have watered it three times a day!"

Liszt asked, "No fertilizer?"

Old George was stunned for a moment, then asked back, "What is fertilizer?"

I don't even know what fertilizer is... Liszt felt speechless: "How do you all grow peanuts?"

Old George rambled about a lot. Basically, weeds grow in autumn and winter, and they will be burned in a fire next year, and then they will start planting peanuts. After planting, they will water and weed. From generation to generation, they have been planted like this, and the yield is particularly low. Only nobles can use elves to influence plant growth and achieve high yields.

Got it. Liszt shook his head.

Without fertilizing, no matter how good the land is, it will become barren after being planted a few times. The large tract of farmland in front of me is about to become yellow land. No wonder the peanuts are dying. They are starving to death.

But then Liszt had doubts again: "Why didn't you starve to death before, but now peanuts are starving to death?"

I heard old George say that they do this every year. Except for droughts and floods, there has never been a similar phenomenon. Therefore, there may be other reasons for the lack of nutrients in peanut fields.

"What's the reason?"

His eyes turned to the green patch in the middle of the field, thinking seriously.

Suddenly, there was a flash of light, and Liszt remembered the reward of the mission - the mission required to rescue the peanut field, and the reward was a elf bug. According to the way he obtained the reward for his first mission, Liszt felt that the elf bug would not be conjured out of thin air, but would probably have suddenly picked up one on the road.

"Reward me with a elf bug... The peanut field is malnourished..." Standing up, Liszt already had the answer in his heart, "I'm afraid, the one who caused the peanut field malnutrition is the elf worm that the mission wants to reward me. The elf worm Born from plants, my elf worm should be the peanut elf worm."

With a wave of his hand, he greeted everyone: "Go to Tian Zhongyang to see."

A group of people walked on tiptoe and came to the center of the peanut field, where the peanut seedlings were still vigorous. Liszt rummaged through his memories. He had seen the collection of elf bugs when he was a child. It was roughly a flower or sprout of a plant, and there was a elf bug like a silkworm that was as tender as jade.

Different elves have different patterns.

At his current worth, he has four elves, a tulip elves, a thorn elves, a corn elves and a clover elves. The cultivation of elf worms needs to cooperate with farming, and Galtai is still helping him find suitable farmland for cultivating elf worms.

After rummaging for a while, Liszt could not find a single peanut seedling that harbored elf worms.

"Probably the time has not yet come and the nutrition can't keep up. This peanut worm will probably have a miscarriage." Liszt couldn't help clenching his palms. The elf worm represents productivity, and this task cannot fail.

thought here.

He said to everyone: "I probably already understand the reason, old George, now, according to my instructions, come and treat this peanut field."

"Praise the Lord!" Old George cried with joy.

Galtai asked in surprise: "Liszt, you really found the problem, do you still grow peanuts? What caused the peanuts to die?"

"I can't say it right now, we'll see it in a few days." Liszt was conservative and didn't say the reason. He was also worried that he had guessed wrong. If there were no elf at all, wouldn't it be an oolong.

So, treat the peanut seedlings first and then do other things.
