An unexpected heavy snowfall on the night of March 19th shocked the entire Xishan Village far more than other villages in Huangtu Town and even Mengyu County. Although such a rare "late spring cold" caused damage to the crops in Lingtian It's still quite big, but it's not so big that it will significantly reduce crop yields. However, Xishan Village was in panic because of Yang Junshan's previous advice to plant late-stage spiritual seeds. People had already arrived early on March 21st. The village office purchased the late rice and late grain seeds that Xishan Village had already reserved.
However, just when everyone thought that the temperature would rise soon after this snow, the wind was howling all day on March 20, except for Qinshui, which did not freeze even in winter, and underground well water. In addition, almost all places with water in Xishan Village are covered with ice.
Just when people were still hoping that the weather would clear up on March 21, another heavy snowfall on the night of March 20 completely extinguished everyone's hopes. Today, Lingtian's large-scale production reduction has become an indisputable fact. In fact.
I broke the ice in the water tank at home and found that the ice was already half a foot thick. Even in the middle of winter, it would not take just one or two days of severe cold to reach this level.
Many people in Xishan Village ran to the spiritual fields to check and found that the soil had been frozen, and most of the cereal plants that had just begun to sprout were covered with a layer of ice crystals. Even those with strong vitality would not survive until the snow melted. A substantial reduction in production is inevitable after that. As for the previous nonsense about survival of the fittest and increasing production, it sounds ridiculous now.
On March 22nd, the weather finally cleared up, the temperature also rose rapidly, and the snow on the ground began to melt slowly. However, at this time, most of the spiritual farmers in Yuzhou were already in a state of tears. Because just last night, the third heavy snow fell again.
In two days and three nights, this year's late spring cold actually resulted in three heavy snowfalls, which brought an almost devastating blow to the spiritual crops in the spiritual fields that had been sown in half of Yuzhou. The survival rate of the crops in the affected spiritual fields was only a pitiful 50%. However, after this late spring cold attack, even the 50% of the surviving spiritual crops themselves were greatly damaged. According to calculations by experienced spiritual farmers, after autumn, these 50% of the surviving crops will be able to have a normal year. A yield of two-thirds of the scenery is considered good!
At this time, there are two methods before the vast number of spiritual farmers: the first is to replant, replant new crops in the spiritual fields where the frozen crops are located, so that although the best farming work will be missed in time, Due to the insufficient growth period of spiritual plants, the yield is reduced, but in the end, 30% of the harvest can be recovered. With luck, with the surviving seedlings, about 60% of the harvest in previous years can be guaranteed throughout the year.
The second is to resow those late-stage spiritual crops. In this way, although the growth cycle of these late-stage spiritual seeds is short, their yield is only 80% of that of normal crops.
Of these two methods, the second one is supposedly the best one. Although re-cultivation of late-stage spiritual seeds will cause all the previously planted spiritual seeds to be wasted, at least 80% of the harvest can still be guaranteed; if not possible, choose replanting. , we should also replant those late-stage spiritual seeds, which can also reduce some losses.
However, who knew that the good years would turn into this, and who would prepare enough late-stage spiritual seeds? In fact, even in bad times, not many people are willing to prepare late-stage spiritual seeds. This is because of these reasons. The yield of spiritual seeds is inherently low, so this kind of seeds are in short supply at all times, unless someone is as unpredictable as Yang Junshan and knows that there will be such a situation in half of Yuzhou.
Catastrophe.
Therefore, when the spiritual farmers in Mengyu County poured into the town hall and county seat, they were already prepared for the grain dealers selling spiritual seeds to raise prices. Just buy some.
However, the late-stage spiritual seeds sold in Mengyu County were obviously less than they imagined. Although many grain merchants took the opportunity to double or even triple the price, they still could not hold on for two days. The entire late-stage spiritual seeds in Mengyu County It has been exhausted, and only a small number of lucky people can buy late-stage spiritual seeds. Many people have no choice but to buy ordinary spiritual seeds for replanting, so as to recover a little loss.
And when the entire Mengyu County, and even the entire Yuzhou cultivation world was in panic, the Yang clan members in Xishan Village who had received the late rice spiritual seeds in advance were planting rice in an orderly manner under the envious eyes of the entire Xishan Village spiritual farmers.
The batch of late rice spiritual seeds received by the Yang clan are the very high quality spiritual seeds found in the treasure house of the Changsun family. Compared with the ordinary late rice spiritual seeds, this batch of spiritual seeds produced less Spiritual rice contains higher spiritual power and has a higher yield, which can reach almost 90% of the yield of normal cultivated spiritual plants.
Moreover, after the village protection array is deployed this year, Yang Junshan is even sure that the output of late rice this year will be the same as that of Linggu in previous years, even if it is other ordinary late rice after adjusting the local climate within the array. Plant, he is also sure to guarantee a successful yield.
In addition to the Yang clan, there is also a group of spiritual farmers from Xishan Village who have always insisted on following the Yang family. They also received the late rice spiritual seeds at the first time. Although they are not as good as the batch of late rice spiritual seeds in the hands of the Yang clan, they are still Avoid the loss of early sowing.
Now, almost three-quarters of the spiritual farmers in Xishan Village are waiting for Yang Junshan to speak. After the late spring cold turned into a snowstorm, almost everyone understood the reason why Yang Junshan purchased a large number of late-stage spiritual seeds. These villagers also They never went to the town office or even the county seat to buy spiritual seeds, because they knew that Yang Junshan was waiting for them, and even if they wanted to go out to buy spiritual seeds at this time, it was impossible. At least the late spiritual seeds in the Huangtu Town Office had been taken by Xishan Village. Sold out.
"What are you going to do next?" Yang Zhenbiao asked, puffing out smoke one after another.
Yang Junshan muttered: "Originally, I planned to sell them to the spiritual farmers in the village at a 20% discount. But after what happened before, I plan to still give the villagers who have always followed the family a 20% discount, but other villagers will just give it as a discount. A lesson to them, just sell it to them at the original price.”
Yang Zhenbiao took a puff of cigarette and said nothing. Yang Junshan saw that he seemed to disagree, so he said: "Grandpa Biao, what do you think?"
Yang Zhenbiao did not answer him directly, but asked again: "I heard that the price of late planting in the county has increased three times the original price, and some people even offered a higher price to buy it, but there is still a price but no market, and you Even if the spiritual field area of Xishan Village is expanded five times, the late-stage spiritual seeds purchased before may not be used up?”
Yang Junshan smiled "hehe" and couldn't help but show a hint of amusement in his expression. As long as he released the news that Xishan Village had extra late seeds, he could sell them at three times the normal price, which would be enough for him to make a fortune this time.
However, Yang Junshan soon heard that there was something in Yang Zhenbiao's words, and said, "Grandpa Biao means that those who did not listen to the advice before, and even some who have ulterior motives to stir up trouble, will all sell seeds at a 20% discount?"
