Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Zhou Tian said with a smile, and before his grandfather could react, he immediately picked up the two hares in his hand and said, "Grandpa, look, what did I bring you?"

"Habbit, grandson, you're going up the mountain again. Have you forgotten that you promised your grandma that you would not go up the mountain again?"

When grandpa saw the hare, his face suddenly tightened and he said quickly.

“Grandpa, it’s okay, I didn’t go up the mountain this time, I just caught it at the foot of the mountain!”

Zhou Tian naturally didn't dare to tell the truth and lied.

"That's good. Well, you've been playing for the whole morning, so you must be tired. Take a rest first. Grandpa will prepare the rabbit. When your grandma and your second aunt come back soon, let them give you a meal of rabbit for lunch!"

After saying that, Grandpa took the rabbit from Zhou Tian’s hand and walked towards the kitchen.

He knew in his heart that his eldest grandson must have lied, but considering that his eldest grandson was not injured, he did not say much.

Zhou Tian originally wanted to clean up the mess himself, but with a bag of seeds in his hand, he was a little impatient to plant them, so he didn't fight for them.

When he returned to the room where he slept, he opened the bag and saw that there were indeed quite a few wheat seeds and corn seeds in the bag, as well as a dozen or so other seeds like sweet potatoes and potatoes, and quite a few vegetable seeds. There was also a small bag that contained rice seeds.

This made Zhou Tian feel a little strange. After all, he remembered that there seemed to be few people growing rice in the north. However, he didn't know that Sijiu City was the origin of Xijing rice in the past.

However, seeing so many seeds, Zhou Tian was still very happy. Immediately, an idea flashed through his mind, and he appeared in the space again with the seeds.

With a thought, he planted all the seeds. Out of the twenty acres of land, he planted a total of five and a half acres: one acre of rice, one acre of wheat, one acre of corn, one acre of vegetables, and half an acre of sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Seeing that all the seeds had been planted, Zhou Tian was just about to plan some fruit trees, strawberries and wild grapes, when suddenly his eyes were caught by the wheat that had just been planted that morning.

However, the wheat that was just planted this morning has already begun to sprout. You know, it’s not even half a day yet.

According to his estimation, it usually takes five to seven days for wheat to sprout, but this is less than half a day. Doesn't that mean it only takes ten days for wheat to mature?

But after thinking about it, he felt that this might be related to the spiritual spring water he used to irrigate the water. After thinking about it, he began to experiment.

Except for one acre of wheat, he did not irrigate with the spiritual spring water, but irrigated the other crops of corn, rice, vegetables, sweet potatoes and potatoes once.

Then he looked at the fruit trees transplanted into the space. He now had apple trees, pear trees, jujube trees, persimmon trees and hawthorn trees.

He planned one acre of land to plant apple trees, pear trees and jujube trees. As for the hawthorn trees and persimmon trees, Zhou Tian just broke off a few branches and planted a few. As for the apple trees, pear trees and jujube trees, he planned to plant more. After all, he also liked to eat these fruits.

He transplanted branches from the apple, pear and jujube trees, and picked the ripe wild apples and pears. After taking a bite, he frowned.

Perhaps because it was not fully ripe, the taste was very bitter and unpalatable, but he still picked out the seeds of the apple and pear, planted them in the plant, and after watering it again with the spiritual spring water, he nodded with satisfaction.

Although the wild apples and wild pears are not delicious now, he believes that the apples and pears will become better and better after being watered with the spiritual spring water.

Finally, he planned another acre of land to plant snakeberry and wild grapes. The same procedure and the same actions were used, but when planting snakeberry and wild grapes, Zhou Tian also used some wooden sticks collected from the mountain to build racks and inserted them around the wild grapes.

If he remembered correctly, grapes were wild plants and needed to be grown on trellises.

As for the hares and pheasants, Zhou Tian used his spatial ability to divide an acre of land for the two. This acre of land was specially used by Zhou Tian to grow grass, but he had just planted the grass and had not had time to water it.

When he poured the spiritual spring water down, suddenly four little rabbits and five pheasants (two large and three small) seemed to have discovered something delicious. They began to raise their heads frantically and swallow the spiritual spring water falling from the sky.

As the pheasants and rabbits devoured the food, they soon grew rapidly like balloons. The originally little pheasants and rabbits suddenly caught up with their parents in size, and even became fatter.

The pheasant, which was already an adult, also began to lay eggs continuously. After the spiritual spring water was used for watering, the pheasant actually laid 23 pheasant eggs.

Its body also expanded a lot and weighed a full six kilograms. As for the hare, it weighed about six or seven kilograms.

Zhou Tian was stunned. He never expected that the spiritual spring water would not have a big effect on the growth of grain, but it would have such a big effect on animals.

But after being stunned for a while, he became excited. After all, if the spring water really had such a huge benefit to animals, then he would not be short of meat soon.

Especially since the growth cycle of domestic black pigs is slow. If they can be enhanced with spiritual spring water, then one can be harvested in just a few days?

Thinking of this, he could no longer stay in this space.

After leaving the space, Zhou Tian immediately ran to the yard and saw his grandfather who was still collecting wild rabbits and asked, "Grandpa, do you know if anyone in the village raises pigs? Do you have piglets to sell?"

"Piglet, grandson, what do you want piglets for? They are not allowed in the city!"

After listening to his eldest grandson's words, the grandfather stopped what he was doing and asked curiously.

"Grandpa, it's not me who wants it. It's our workshop director who asked me to ask. He knows I'm going back to the village, so he asked me to ask if there are any piglets for sale in our village. If there are, he asked me to buy him two, one male and one female!"

Zhou Tian came up with a solution in a blink of an eye and said.

"Well, it's not that there isn't one. I seem to remember that there was an old man named Liu in the east of the village. He seemed to sell piglets!"

Grandpa pondered for a moment and said uncertainly that after all, no one in their family thought of raising pigs, so he was not very clear about selling piglets. However, he had heard about it from villagers, but it had been a long time and he did not remember it clearly.

"Old Man Liu's home in the east of the village?"

Zhou Tian knew the address and turned around and ran out of the yard.

"Grandson, your grandma and the others will be back soon, you should go back soon!"

When the grandfather saw his grandson running out, he immediately stood up and shouted.

"I know, Grandpa!"

Zhou Tian agreed and ran all the way to the east of the village. He found out the specific address of Old Man Liu from the villagers and went straight to his door.

"Is Grandpa Liu home?"

Zhou Tian knocked on the door outside and asked loudly.

"Who!"

An old voice came from inside, and then the door was opened. A hunchbacked old man who looked to be in his seventies looked at Zhou Tian tremblingly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Who are you looking for, young man?"

"Grandpa Liu, I'm Zhou Tian from the Zhou family at the west end of the village!"

Zhou Tian spoke immediately.

"Zhou's boy, oh, I remember now, you are the grandson of old Zhou, come in, tell me what you want to say."

Old Man Liu quickly remembered who Zhou Tian was, and opened the door to let Zhou Tian in.

"Grandpa Liu, I heard that you sell piglets here, so I want to buy four, two males and two females!"

Zhou Tian walked into the yard, and when he saw a pigpen on the west side of the yard, a light flashed in his eyes.

"Oh, you want to buy piglets? OK, Grandpa Liu will pick four sturdier ones for you."

When Old Man Liu heard that Zhou Tian wanted to buy piglets, he was not surprised. After all, since he was from a different family, he had no contact with Zhoujia Village on weekdays. The only contact was that when villagers wanted to buy piglets, they would come to him.

"Grandpa Liu, that's all right. You take a rest. I'll do it!"

When Zhou Tian and Old Man Liu came to the pigpen, they saw a dozen piglets running back and forth inside, with a hint of joy in their eyes.

"Okay, then catch it!"

Old Man Liu knew that his body was not good, so he didn't force it. He pointed at the four piglets and said, "Catch those four. They are more active than the other piglets!"
