The sick and charming male god of fast transmigration wants to hug

But then there is another problem, that is, the germination of seeds requires water.

It's not that there is no water in this area, it's just that the content of salt and alkali is too high. As Xie Xian said at the beginning, blisters will form on the body even after taking a bath, let alone pouring the ground.

The seeds would probably burn to death in less than a day.

Even the deep wells dug from the ground are still not up to the reference standard. Many people who couldn't help their thirst died after only a few sips in two days.

At this time, everyone discovered that a wooden shelf had been erected at some point next to the land allocated by General Zhu, and there were huge glass blocks placed on the wooden shelf.

Every day, Bai Lin asked his subordinates to lift buckets of saline-alkaline water from the abandoned wells of nearby farmers to the bottom of the glass block, water the whole area thoroughly, and put a few wooden buckets under it at night.

"Master, we are so busy, what are we doing? What is the water for?"

The maid noticed that the water in the barrel was increasing every day, Bai Lin asked them to collect all the water for future use.

Bai Lin smiled mysteriously: "There is salt and water in this saline-alkali water, the key is to separate them. During the day, the heat from the sun evaporates the water in the saline-alkali water in the ground and floats to the relatively cold glass." It turns back into water, and when the temperature is lower at night, it will fall into the bucket, and this is pure water."

His method is to refer to the distillation method to separate salt and water. It is not easy to tell these people too much, and they can't understand.

The servant girl half understood: "I see, so the water in the bucket is fresh water, right?"

Bai Lin nodded: "The reason why I need glass is because the glass is transparent and won't block the sun's rays, and this angle is just right for the sun's rays to converge, which is more conducive to the evaporation of water."

The guards and subordinates couldn't help casting admiring glances, the master really has a good head!

Bai Lin checked the water collected from the barrels, there were already several large barrels, and he felt that it was time to start work.

"Tomorrow we will sow the seeds, success or failure depends on it!"

-

The news that Bai Lin was going to sow the seeds spread, causing the nearby villagers to come here admiringly.

On the day of sowing, the fields were crowded with people, and everyone wanted to see the saline-alkali land grow crops.

"Ahem, considering that there are not many freshwater resources collected at present, flooding rice is a waste of water, so let's plant some corn first."

Corn, like sweet potatoes, is a dryland crop and does not require much water, so it is a suitable experimental material.

Bai Lin signaled for his subordinates to plant the corn seeds, and then buried them with a shallow layer of soil mixed with gypsum to prevent the seeds from being burned to death by accident.

Before dawn on the third day, Bai Lin was woken up by his subordinates.

"Master, a villager has come to report that they saw sprouts in our field when they passed by in the morning!"

This is exciting news, the sun had just risen when Bai Lin arrived at the field, but many people had already gathered at the field for the experiment.

He stepped forward and came to the place where the crowd gathered.

There, a newborn seedling is soft and weak, as if it is about to fall when the wind blows.

But it is a brand-new hope for this area. Corn seeds can germinate in saline-alkaline soil!

Bai Lin was surrounded by the villagers, and everyone gave a thumbs up, including many who had gossiped about him.

"God, grow crops in saline-alkali land!"

"It's amazing, how did you do it?"

"We have hope again!"

At this moment, Bai Lin showed a sincere smile.
