Of course, the probability of this is not high.
But among thousands of acres of land, it's not uncommon.
And Luo De's Breeding Lord ability influenced this single grain of wheat, causing it to mutate.
This blue shoot sprouted in the snowy winter.
Luo De murmured, his breathing gradually becoming rapid.
He gazed at the wheat sprout, his thoughts racing.
"So is this a cold-resistant wheat seed?"
"No, not just cold-resistant!"
Luo De couldn't help but laugh, immediately asserting in his heart,
"This is a cold-loving magic plant!"
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to sprout and grow in such a deep winter!
Luo De's heart surged instantly!
If this wheat seedling is indeed a cold-loving mutant, what does that imply?
It means sowing in winter!
During the long cold winters of the Northern Wasteland, while other lords can only stay indoors waiting for spring, Luo De can continue to harvest food from the land!
With his own ability as a Crop Lord, the yield of this mutant wheat seed could multiply!
Within a few years... wait!
Luo De suddenly realized something, but couldn't grasp the key point immediately!
"Calm down!"
Luo De scolded himself, taking frequent deep breaths to steady his nerves!
Yes, where did the wheat seed come from?
It sprouted and grew from wheat in the winter!
This means that the wheat sown in this weather, only the cold-loving mutant wheat can grow!
So, can I rely on this method to massively cultivate cold-loving wheat seeds?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, his lips involuntarily curling into a smile he couldn't suppress.
Even if I'm unsuccessful, it's just a few bags of frozen grain.
Besides, the frozen wheat won't produce toxins or harmful substances, it's essentially still grain.
It can still be cooked into porridge for the slaves, no waste!
And once Luo De succeeds in cultivating it.
It means it won't take a year for him to start farming in the winter.
"Don't get too excited, the wheat might not bear fruit."
Luo De reminded himself.
But then he thought, what does it matter if it doesn't bear fruit?
With large-scale cultivation, eventually, there will be results.
The most important thing is, this time, I discovered the method for targeted cultivation.
Luo De turned to Otto, patting him on the shoulder, speaking in a tone of commendation: "Well done!"
Otto beamed widely,
"My luck comes from you, it's mainly because you chose the right path."
Luo De smiled, ignoring Otto's flattery.
Luo De's gaze returned to the blue wheat sprout,
"Go, get a shovel, I want to dig it up."
"You want to do it yourself?"
Otto volunteered: "Let me do it..."
Luo De's expression turned cold,
"Hurry and get the shovel!"
"Okay."
Otto dared not argue, he swiftly ran back to the crowd and handed the shovel to Luo De.
Luo De bent down, carefully drawing a circle the size of a soccer ball around the wheat sprout, then dug out all the surrounding soil.
"Go, bring the leather bag."
"Coming right up!"
This time Otto didn't hesitate, hastily bringing the leather bag.
It was originally for storing grain, but now Luo De placed the wheat sprout with its soil into it.
"No one is to speak of this matter today."
Luo De's expression turned stern as he loudly ordered everyone,
"If I hear any news about today's wheat from outside, I will cut out the tongues of all of you!"
Luo De's fierce aura swept out, instantly making everyone lower their heads involuntarily.
"Yes, Lord!"
The crowd replied in unison, not daring to neglect.
After speaking, Luo De smiled again, placing an arm around Otto's shoulder, "You'll be rewarded when we return."
"Thank you, Lord!" Otto's face lit up immediately with joy.
"Let's go, back to town!"
Luo De mounted his horse, heading straight for Frost Leaf Town.
Upon returning to the manor, without entering the house, Luo De immediately called Lawrence to his side,
"Mobilize fifty people, demolish the houses next to the manor for me!"
"What?"
Lawrence was instantly stunned.
Has something shocked the lord, coming back wanting to demolish houses?
"Did you hear me?"
Luo De urged.
"Ah, yes, my lord!"
Lawrence hurriedly responded.
"And remove the foundations as well, I want it for farming."
"Be quick, complete it within three days!"
Lawrence quickly nodded, "Yes, understood!"
"Also, dispatch fifty reliable slaves to plow and farm tomorrow!"
After Luo De finished speaking, Lawrence was completely stunned.
"Farm?"
Lawrence looked at Luo De in disbelief, "Lord, it's so cold outside that it freezes when you urinate, and you want to farm?"
"Lawrence, do you trust me?"
"Of course, my lord, you are always right!" Lawrence shouted in response.
"Very good, go arrange it, you'll understand later!"
Luo De ordered with a serious face.
Luo De couldn't wait.
The key issue is not knowing how long this cold-loving wheat will take to mature or if it can withstand heat.
If sown now, it can mature by May or June during spring tillage.
By that time, it won't be too hot in the Northern Wilderness, more like warm.
If it rains, it will still be very cold.
But come July or August, it will be the scorching summer.
Seeing Luo De's expression, Lawrence immediately understood.
Something extraordinary was undoubtedly discovered on this trip!
Lawrence glanced at Otto, refraining from asking more,
"No problem!"
Lawrence immediately ran out, his chubby body swaying swiftly from side to side as he moved.
Luo De then turned his gaze on Otto,
"Go prepare the farming tools now."
"Also, separate some people from those today, to find the wheat sprouts we saw today in other fields!"
"Doesn't matter the color, as long as it's a wheat sprout, dig it up with the soil and bring it to me!"
"Find one, and the reward is fifty pounds of rye!"
Otto had a vague idea about the sprout's role, his face lighting up with joy,
"Rest assured, Lord, as long as it's in the field, I'll find it for you!"
"Hurry up!"
"Yes!"
Otto immediately turned and ran off!
Luo De carefully cradled the wheat sprout in the bag.
Afraid that this wheat might not withstand heat, Luo De didn't even enter the hall, issuing orders outside.
"Congratulations, Lord Baron."
Vivian crossed her arms, smiling as she said, "You discovered something incredible this time."
Vivian had a good noble education.
She knew very well how important this thing was in the Northern Wasteland.
The brick bed solved the cold, and this will turn the vast Northern Wasteland into a granary.
"You can tell your sister, let her be happy too."
Luo De was in a good mood, staring at the sprout in his hand,
"But, wheat is just the beginning."
