Chapter 5: The seedlings of Tomato Tun
"All your knights are indispensable parts of our territory, I need you. You also need me."
Valen's voice was not loud but he was very powerful. Valen's shouts entered everyone's heart.
Logan hammered his chest hard, and shouted in an extremely standard way, saying, "
"Swear to be loyal to Lord Valen!"
Seeing Logan's oath, other knights also imitated Logan and shouted to Valen in front of him:
"Swear to be loyal to Lord Valen!"
Watching Logan's loyalty change from loyalty to high loyalty, Valen nodded with relief.
Under such a cold aristocratic system, it is a very rare thing for a nobleman who remembers all their names and appearances.
It is also a thing that can impress these low-level knights very much.
Their labor was far more labor-for-work than those knight-leaders, but they were hardly recognised by their masters.
A lord who can know them and know them is enough to move them.
A scholar dies for his confidant.
Valen grasped their psychology and used his panel to display names, firmly grasping the hearts of these knights.
Valen nodded to all the knights and said loudly:
"I will remember the achievements of all of you. As long as you are truly loyal to me, you will have a bright future in the future."
"Now our fiefdom needs you to protect."
Valen looked at Logan on the side and said:
"You assign all the knights a place to patrol and guard every day to ensure the safety of our fiefdom. Do you understand?"
Ron's eyes were very hot at this time, and Valen could even feel a flame appearing from his eyes and pressing against his skin tightly.
"Lord Valen, please leave it to me."
The title of these knights for Valen has gradually changed from Master Valen to Lord Valen at this time, proving that these knights have fully recognized their identity as Lord Valen at this time.
Valen looked at a limp old man in the distance slowly walking from a distance with a cane. He limped when he walked, his clothes covered with patches could not cover his thin body at all.
After seeing Valen, the lame old man immediately became nervous. He trembled his body and saluted Valen in a strange way.
Valen waved his hand and looked at the old man in front of him and asked:
"Don't be too nervous, which village are you the head of the village?"
Suddenly being summoned by the new lord made the old man very nervous at this time, so that his voice trembled a little.
"Lord, I am the head of Tomato Treasures, and others call me Old Sam."
Tomato Tun is the closest place to the Lord Castle, so it is not surprising that Old Sam arrives at the Lord Castle for the first time.
"Old Sam, when I came, I seemed to have stopped growing the crops in our village fields, right?"
Old Sam nodded and said:
"Yes, Lord Lord. There was a large area of yellow and yellow in our tomato field. I'm afraid that the tomatoes in our field will die in the fields in a few days."
Old Sam's face was filled with sorrow. Obviously, such things have troubled him for many days.
Valen looked at the old Sam in front of him and said, "You take me to the Tomato Village now to take a look. I'll see if I can solve the problem in the Tomato Village."
When Old Sam heard Valen's words, he immediately became excited.
"Thank you Lord for your favor for our Tomato Village. If our Tomato Village does not have a harvest this year, I'm afraid that the people in our town will starve to death. Thank you Lord."
After Old Sam knew Valen's purpose, he quickly walked towards the place where Tomato Tun was. He said that it was actually more like running. When you passed by him, you could even feel a gust of wind blowing.
Valen said to Logan behind him, "Logan, let them come to Tomato Village to find me after the leaders of other towns come."
After saying that, Valen stepped onto the brown horse beside him and ran to the place where Old Sam went, and let Old Sam sit behind his horse.
The vast majority of the harvest of the fields in this world belongs to Valen, and the remaining small part is the food left by these residents.
Valen carried Old Sam to quickly walk through the Tomato Village and saw someone riding a horse through the village. Everyone in the village looked up at the street.
I want to see which nobleman came to Tomato Tun.
The people in the village are all pale and thin, and their long-term work makes them feel more or less hunched.
Old Sam pointed at the tomato field, and the tomato seedlings inside were green and yellow. All the seedlings drooped their heads and collapsed on the ground.
Valen turned over and got off the horse, and pinched a handful of the soil next to the tomato seedlings with his hand, but it was still wet.
Obviously, this situation is not caused by long-term watering.
Old Sam said from the side: "Lord, we water it on time every day, but the tomatoes inside are still half-dead. Now there is no normal field in the village."
Valen nodded. Valen still believed Old Sam's words, but it was still strange that these seedlings all turned into this.
Valen walked into the field and looked at the tomato seedlings inside the field.
The tomato seedlings here all turn yellow in the tips of the leaves and lose their original luster. The seedlings are slightly shorter than normal seedlings.
The root growth of these tomato seedlings is very poor, and the roots are all distributed in relatively shallow soil and are very young.
If you apply a little force, such seedlings will be uprooted.
With the high school creatures I learned in my previous life, Valen quickly made a judgment on this situation. It should be that the seedlings lack phosphorus and potassium, which can be said to be malnutrition in the seedlings.
Valen asked, looking at Old Sam on the side;
"Old Sam, do you use fertilizer when you grow these tomatoes?"
Hearing Valen's words, Old Sam blinked his eyes in confusion and said:
"Lord, what is fertilizer?"
Seeing Old Sam's reaction, Valen knew that his judgment should be fine.
The planting situation here should be the most primitive "slash-and-burn" planting method. When planting in the next year, use fire to burn the weeds that grow in autumn and winter, then start planting peanuts and then weeding. This cycle is the way of planting.
The fertility of the original land will be exhausted soon.
Without using fertilizer, no matter how good the land is planted a few times, it will become barren land.
If you want to solve such a problem, you must strengthen the fertility of these lands.
"Old George, I know how to treat these fields, but this matter requires you to use all of our villages."
