Li Kai could not believe it. He lay down again and carefully pushed the soil away. He carefully looked at the roots of the rice seedling and could not help but be shocked. “Brother Qin, this… this is the rice seedling of Xiangshui Tribute Rice?”
“Brother Li, you can tell?” Qin Lin could not help but be surprised.
When Li Kai heard this, he was a little unhappy. “Brother Qin, I’m an expert associate professor. Moreover, I’ve seen the rice seedlings of Xiangshui Tribute Rice before.”
When Li Qing heard their conversation, he said in surprise, “Uncle, are you saying that this is Xiangshui Tribute Rice’s seed?”
It was common knowledge that Xiangshui Tribute Rice could only be planted in Xiangshui. Furthermore, only that small area could be planted. It could not be planted anywhere else. Even if it was planted, the taste and nutrition were too different from the original.
This was also the reason why Xiangshui Tribute Rice was especially expensive. 90% of the rich could not eat it.
Now, his uncle was saying that the rice in Qin Lin’s paddy field was Xiangshui Tribute Rice?
Li Kai explained, “This is indeed Xiangshui Tribute Rice’s seed. Brother Qin, how did you do it? Logically speaking, the geographical environnt of the city doesn’t et the growth conditions of Xiangshui Tribute Rice at all. It’s even impossible for seeds to germinate.”
Qin Lin had long thought of this answer and imdiately explained, “Didn’t they exchange Xiangshui Tribute Rice for my dicinal wine? I asked the other party to get so seeds and wanted to try cultivating them myself. My hotown has a very special old field, so I wanted to see if I could use it to cultivate this seed.”
When Li Qing heard this, he recalled what Qin Lin had said previously and could not help but explain, “I rember now. Qin Lin, your waterlon seed seed to have sprouted in that old field and was accidentally discovered (Chapter 138), right?”
“Yes!” Qin Lin nodded.
The reason he had made up before was now rounded.
Li Kai looked at his nephew and asked, “What’s going on? What old field? And why is it connected to the waterlon?”
Li Qing explained, “Qin Lin has an old field at ho. These waterlon seeds were left in that old field. Qin Lin discovered them when they germinated in winter.”
“Qin Lin, you’re smart. That old field can make the waterlon genes mutate and grow in the middle of winter. There must be sothing special about it. There might be an unexpected harvest when planting other seeds. Didn’t the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds grow?”
Seeing that Li Qing was so cooperative, Qin Lin also smiled and said, “That’s right. When I returned to the old residence for the new year, I dug so soil in the old field to cultivate. I realized that this seed could germinate, and the germinating ti was even shorter. I dug out two big bags of soil and mixed it into this artificial field to experint. You saw the result.”
Li Kai was completely surprised to hear their words. “Brother Qin, the soil in your old field might not be simple. It might be a rare and special soil.”
China was vast and had many resources. The land was different, and there were many types of soil. The most common ones were black soil, red soil, yellow soil, pine soil, sand soil, and so on.
However, so of these soil were suitable for planting, and so were not.
Black soil was very suitable for planting, while red soil was more barren.
Other than this soil, there was so rare soil. This soil might be affected by so environnt or weather, climate, temperature, humidity, and so on. It contained special elents.
So of these special elents could promote crops. For example, there were more or less special elents in the soil where they were specially planted.
It was also because of the existence of these special elents that those crops were very different and beca precious and rare. Without those elents, the soil elsewhere could not be replicated and planted. Even if it was replicated and planted, it would degenerate.
Naturally, there were also so special elents that were harmful. For example, the land that had been irradiated and the soil of the heavy tal elents. The crops that were planted could not be eaten by humans.
Without a word, Li Kai reached into the soil and pulled out so to rub on his palm.
Brother Qin’s soil was undoubtedly beneficial. After all, it had already allowed the waterlon seed gene to survive in winter and taste better. Now, it could also nurture the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings.
Li Qing looked at the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings and said, “Qin Lin, doesn’t this an that you can plant Xiangshui Tribute Rice here in the future? I wonder what the final harvest will be like.”
“We’ll only know when it’s planted.” Qin Lin had to answer this question in an uncertain manner even if he knew the outco.
After all, it was not that there were no other places where the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings had been cultivated, but the rice harvested in the end was too inferior.
Cultivating rice seedlings was only the first step. Harvesting was the second step.
“Qin Lin, if it’s not worse than that Xiangshui Tribute Rice, you can’t forget your friends.” Li Qing imdiately played the emotional card.
That was the Xiangshui Tribute Rice. He had to enjoy the benefits of a favorable position, right?
“You only know how to eat.” Li Kai pushed Li Qing away angrily and said to Qin Lin, “Brother Qin, can I analyze the soil composition and see what elents are in it?”
For the agricultural expert, in addition to the study of crops, the study of crop soil was also an ability.
“Of course, Brother Li. Help see if there’s anything wrong with this soil.” Qin Lin naturally knew that there were elents in this soil that increased the survival rate of crops and improved genes.
