219 Greenhouse Rice Harvest
October was a huge surprise for Gu Qingming and the Shi family.
Why?
The greenhouse rice had a bumper harvest!
On the surface, it was Gu Qingming who was planting. In fact, under the management of the Shi family, the growth of the greenhouse rice was getting better and better day by day. It grew better than the rice outside.
!!
Also, perhaps due to meticulous care, the greenhouse rice did not receive any pests or diseases.
From the seedlings to the particles that wrapped the flowers and ears, they turned yellow and matured until they were harvested. Other than adding some farm fertilizer, they had never been beaten with pesticides. Moreover, not only were the grains produced plump, but they were also clearly more grain particles than ordinary rice outside.
Using the greenhouse to grow the rice, he actually received 1,100 catties.
This harvest shocked everyone in the village.
They did not expect the harvest to be so high.
Generally speaking, the best harvest in five regions would be around 700 catties. At most, it would hit 800 catties.
Now, the production exceeded by 300 catties. Although it was a small number, it was a huge difference.
There were 600 catties for an acre of land. With 10 acres of land, they would have an additional 6,000 kilograms of rice.
After harvesting, the rice grains were golden and full. There was not a single bug or insufficient grain in the entire field.
Such a harvest was really too shocking.
Even Grandma Shi asked in surprise, “Is the greenhouse rice really that good?”
They had not used pesticides. Yet, there was not a single bug, not a single one that was not full. It sounded like a miracle.
Little did they know that the greenhouse was not the differentiator.
Instead, Gu Qingming secretly watered them with spiritual spring water.
Kong Xingfan said that these rice only needed to be watered with Spiritual Spring Water three times.
The first time was the growth period, the second time was the flowering period, and the last time was when the grains matured and slowly turned yellow.
Therefore, Gu Qingming would go for walk at the greenhouse frequently.
The most surprising thing was that the rice steamed from the greenhouse was especially fragrant.
The entire family loved to eat it.
The two children, who had never liked to eat, ate a whole bowl of rice in their own bowls for the first time. If not for the fact that they were afraid that they would be stuffed, they would probably be able to eat another bowl.
Gu Qingming did not plan to sell these rice grains. Instead, she mixed them into normal rice and distributed them to these close friends and relatives.
Those who received the rice praised them unanimously!
None of them had expected the rice produced by the greenhouse to be so fragrant and delicious.
Although the rice production in the greenhouse was high and there were few diseases and pests, the cost was too high. It was fine to plant a few plots of land, but if they planted a few acres of land and these plots of land were not in one piece, wouldn’t it cost tens of thousands of dollars?
Tens of thousands of dollars might have been someone’s savings for half their lives. How could they easily take it out to try out unknown gains?
After Eldest Uncle and the others tasted the greenhouse rice, they were a little tempted, but they also had to consider the cost.
After Gu Qingming found out about their thoughts, she encouraged them to build a greenhouse and plant rice to develop green products that were harmless. In that case, the price they fetch would definitely be higher, just like the watermelons.
Of course, Gu Qingming did this to make it easier to add spirit spring water to their rice.
Hearing Gu Qingming’s words, the three uncles were tempted.
After tasting the sweetness of selling watermelons, the entire family was interested in selling green agricultural products.
