Chapter 258 The Volcano Is About To Erupt
Wu Yue had never seen the video of the thresher, so it was the first time she saw the thresher working.
Looking at the small pile of corn kernels and the bare corn cob, Wu Yue's expression seemed to have discovered a new world.
"It's so fun? I'm coming too!"
Wu Yue picked up a piece of corn and threw it in, even squatting aside to watch it spit out corn kernels.
Su Nian looked amused, "Actually, you can put more than one at a time!"
As soon as Su Nian finished speaking, Wu Yue couldn't wait, picked up one corn cob after another and threw them into it.
There were only 200 corns in total, and it didn't take long before they were all thrown in.
After throwing it away, Wu Yue was still a little unsatisfied, "Why did it disappear so quickly..."
Such a fun thing, I didn't even get to play for a long time.
Su Nian looked at the pile of corn and couldn't be more satisfied.
Even though he has never planted land before, Su Nian knows that it is already very powerful to grow so much corn in such a small area!
These corn kernels are not particularly dry, and they still need to be dried.
As for those corn cobs, they can be used to light a fire after drying, and the effect of starting a fire is very good.
Plant ash is also useful and can be used to mix seeds.
As for the stalks, the tenderest part is cut off and eaten like sugarcane.
As for other stems and leaves, there are livestock that can be used to feed livestock. Biqu library
Drying without livestock can also be used to burn fire.
The three of Su Nian didn't plan to raise any livestock. After the corn stalks were cut down, they were placed in a place out of the way and allowed to dry, and then put into the space when they were dry.
When the eternal night comes, these things will be useful sooner or later.
All the corn had been harvested, and the three of Su Nian turned over the soil in the logistics box together, and got out the roots of the corn.
When planting again this time, I still divided it into two parts.
Half of the seeds were treated with nutrients, while the other half of the seeds were left without nutrients.
If these corns are used as seeds without nutrients, the harvest can be increased, and a lot of troubles can be solved virtually.
The corn in the living room has not been planted for a long time, and the corn in the next room is also ripe.
Not only that, but the potatoes and sweet potatoes upstairs can also be harvested.
this time
Obviously, the corn in the living room did not grow as well as the corn in the living room, and not only did the corn yield half.
The finally grown corn cobs are also much smaller in size, and the corn kernels on them are not full enough, and they are also a little sparse.
Although there is corn in the whole room, the grain harvested in the end is not as much as the previous harvest.
No wonder the people in the base still can't get enough to eat even though there are new varieties and the growth conditions are not limited. This is the reason!
Not only was the harvest of corn not very good, but potatoes and sweet potatoes were also not good.
Whether it is potatoes or sweet potatoes, they are not big in size, with thicker skins, a bit astringent taste, and take longer to cook.
Even if it is ground into powder and then eaten, the food will be very astringent and not easy to digest.
Looking at these things, Su Nian felt his head was getting big, so he simply put his head into the space.
As for whether to use nutrients for improvement, we can wait until the corn in the living room is harvested.
This wait is more than two months.
After more than two months, the half of the corn that had been treated with nutrients matured first.
As before, the corn cobs are very large, and the corn kernels on it are crowded and full.
Su Nian and the others have also ground corn kernels into flour and made them into various pasta. The taste is very good!
It can be said that there are no shortcomings.
After this half was harvested, another ten days passed, and the other half of the corn that had not used nutrients was all mature.
Generally speaking, the corn cobs are smaller, and the quality and taste are slightly worse than those of the base varieties, but they are still much better than the base varieties.
After all the corn was dried on the tarpaulin, Su Nian didn't want to move anymore.
When I first started farming, I was still a little interested.
I was also very happy when I planted it for the second time, after all, it was to verify some of my guesses.
But now, the speculation has been verified, and farming is troublesome, Su Nian doesn't really want to do it by himself.
Wu Yue waited for quite a while, but didn't see Su Nian move, only saw her meditating there, she couldn't help being curious, "What are you thinking?"
Su Nian looked at Wu Yue, "I was thinking of a wise saying - if you don't lead a team, you can only do it yourself."
"Won't......"
Wu Yue repeated Su Nian's words softly, deeply feeling that this is the most important thing.
Reasonable quotes.
"How about we find some people to work for us?"
The base lacks everything, but obviously there is no shortage of labor.
Jing Mo also said, "I can go out and look for..."
Before Jing Mo could finish speaking, an alarm suddenly sounded outside.
The sound was very loud and harsh.
Hearing this voice, the three of Su Nian looked outside at the same time.
This is not the alarm from Jingmolong in their yard, but the air defense alarm.
Su Nian frowned slightly, "What's going on?"
Wu Yue has already picked up the phone, "There should be a notification!"
Su Nian, "..."
Who among them is the blue star?
Why is Wu Yue smoother than her with her mobile phone now?
While thinking this in his heart, Su Nian also turned on the phone.
Just after the base app, Su Nian saw a red announcement - the volcano is about to erupt, and all the residents of the base will be moved to underground shelters within a day.
The moment Su Nian saw the announcement, Su Nian wasn't too shocked.
Probably because he had anticipated it a long time ago and knew that this day would come sooner or later.
But there is no time to be stunned by them now, Su Nian turned off the phone, looked at Wu Yue and Jing Mo, "Hurry up and change clothes, and put some food and supplies into the mountaineering bag, and I will put the rest in the space later." .”
Wu Yue and Jing Mo were also unambiguous, and the three of them went to work separately.
Su Nian first put all the food and logistics boxes into the space, then went into the kitchen and bathroom, and swept everything inside.
Then came the upstairs bedroom and Wu Yue's room.
Turning around, the whole house was empty, no different from when they first arrived.
At this time, the three of them were fully armed, from head to toe, covering as much skin as they could cover.
Wu Yue and Jing Mo put on wigs, but Wu Yue didn't wear contact lenses.
Once the volcano erupts, the temperature will rise in a straight line, even if you stay in an underground shelter, it will not be 100% safe.
Wearing contact lenses in this situation is no different from courting death.
However, the wig Wu Yue wears today has straight bangs, and the bangs are quite long, covered by the bangs, and there is not enough light in the ground, as long as they don't stare at her all the time, no one should notice the difference in the color of her pupils.
