After looking at the rice, Bai Jintong went to look at the corn. These two were the most important crops on the farm. As long as they were planted successfully, there would be countless rice and corn in the future.

This will also alleviate the food shortage in Longguo.

"My girl, this corn was infested with insects some time ago, and we followed your instructions to get rid of the insects, and it really worked.

I just don’t know if the current results have achieved the expected harvest.”

Da Zhuang looked at the girl nervously as she walked forward and peeled off the husk of a cob of corn.

No one dared to look at the corn inside to see what the Great Wall looked like.

After all, this corn was something I had never seen before, and I didn't dare to break it open for a look, for fear that I would damage the whole plant if I touched it.

It was not until the last time the old lady came over and went straight up to break open the corn to see how ripe it was that they realized this was how they could check its growth.

But even if they knew it, no one dared to open any other ears to look at. They just kept looking at the ear of corn that had been opened by the old lady.

After looking around, they still didn't know which one was good, as it was the first time they had seen this thing.

However, he did take care of the corn fields strictly according to the instructions left by the girl.

Since the first time the insects were discovered, they have been caught and removed as soon as possible, and there are people patrolling back and forth in this cornfield every day.

Everyone in the village treasures this cornfield as if it were their own life.

Bai Jintong had already opened several cobs of corn and found that they were growing quite well. The corn kernels were plump and the color of white jade.

“It’s looking great, better than I expected.

You have worked hard."

As Bai Jintong was speaking, he noticed two people walking back and forth inside, as if they were looking for something important.

"Did they lose something?"

"No girl, it's..."

Da Zhuang told them that the two men were planning to catch insects.

Bai Jintong was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry when she heard this.

"Thank you all for your hard work. Go get two winnowing baskets, and have someone catch 15 chickens and ducks each and kill them."

They were promised chicken legs as a reward. The chickens and ducks on the farm were so numerous that the small chicken coop could no longer hold them all. The people on the farm had to go out every day to cut grass for the pigs, chickens and ducks.

When Da Zhuang heard that they had to kill so many chickens and ducks to feed the people on the farm, he felt a little distressed.

"What are you doing standing still?

If we don’t eat so much, the chickens and ducks will not be able to continue hatching eggs.

There are also chicken and duck eggs, which can be rewarded to the children to eat one every day.

Only when you all have good health can you help me take better care of everything on the farm.

Let them taste the chickens and ducks they raise.”

Bai Jintong really didn't expect that they could take care of the farm so well.

As a boss, she cannot be stingy with her rewards for a job well done.

Seeing that the girl was rewarding the people on the farm, Da Zhuang no longer felt bad.

As soon as he left, Bai Jintong called him back.

"Come back and kill a few more, so that the patrolling guards outside can have a taste as well.

Give me two chickens and two ducks to take back."

"Yes!"

Da Zhuang ordered someone to kill the chickens and ducks, and he took two baskets and followed Bai Jintong to learn how to break corn cobs.

"Pick the big and plump ones, but break the tender ones."

Da Zhuang picked out thirty relatively tender corn cobs and helped put them into the girl's carriage.

Bai Jintong couldn't help but want to try the corn produced by the system, it should be delicious.

She couldn't eat alone, so each family member got a stick, and Little Potato's family also got a stick.

The Prince Qi's mansion has been given to him, the Emperor will definitely know about it, so why not just give him two sticks as well.

The rest cannot be wasted. Although the harvest per acre is very considerable and feels higher than the yield per acre in later generations, it must be saved for seeds.

After a while, the people who slaughtered chickens and ducks packed up the chickens and ducks that Bai Jintong wanted to take home.

Bai Jintong saw that there were no internal organs, so she thought, that would be a shame since they were raised at home. She wanted to eat fried chicken offal with pickled peppers and duck offal vermicelli soup.

"I want chicken and duck offal, too."

When the servants heard that the girl wanted chicken and duck offal, they called several ladies to wash the leftovers and bring them to her.

Bai Jintong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she didn't reject these people's enthusiasm for her and took half.

"Cook the livers and feed them to the elderly and children. They are more nutritious than meat. These are enough for me."

At this time, Da Zhuang caught two big grass carps and two mandarin fish.

"Girl, how about trying the fish in the pond?"

"Oh, I forgot there was fish. That's perfect!"

It just so happens that my brother and his family can go home today to have some nourishing food.

Seeing that the time was almost up, she had to go pick up her brother from the examination hall, bid farewell to the enthusiastic and reluctant people, and return home with a full load.
