Ten minutes later, all the seeds began to sprout, except for those confirmed to be dead, which remained inert. It seemed that the soil could revive the seeds, not the water.
Jiang Xia observed the other seeds. The ones produced from her interspace grew faster than the ordinary seeds.
In order to make the seeds mature as soon as possible, Jiang Xia watered the reclaimed land in front of the wooden house twice. This attracted some small herbivorous animals, but many were deterred by traps.
Jiang Gu sat beside Jiang Xia and observed the changes of the seeds with her.
“Sister, why do the seeds from your interspace grow so fast? Does the water from the space also have the magical effect of restoring physical strength?” Jiang Gu asked with a curious face.
Jiang Xia shifted her gaze from the seeds to her sister and sighed. Jiang Gu always asked questions that she couldn’t answer.
Jiang Xia thought for a moment before responding, “Actually, it’s not just the interspace water that has this effect. Our country will slowly develop and develop something with similar effects in the future.”
“In the future?” Jiang Gu asked in confusion.
Jiang Xia nodded with a smile, “Yes, in the future! During our adventure, mom, dad, and I saw many things about the future. In the future world, everyone will be able to eat well and dress warmly, consuming fine food and living in tall buildings.”
The more Jiang Xia spoke, the brighter Jiang Gu’s eyes shone. Although she couldn’t imagine the world her sister described, she looked forward to the arrival of that time.
“Sister, if the future world is so good, does everyone have a interspace like you?” Jiang Gu couldn’t understand why the future life would be so good, so she associated her sister’s description of the future with her sister’s magical space.
Jiang Xia smiled and shook her head, “Of course not. The future is good because generation after generation of unheralded scientists and researchers tirelessly research and develop new weapons, methods to increase food production, and so on.”
Jiang Gu widened her eyes in surprise and asked, “Can food production be increased?”
The expression on young Jiang Gu’s face amused Jiang Xia. Jiang Xia smiled and replied, “Of course it can! Just like before the invention of the airplane, no one believed that humans could fly. The same applies to food production. As long as someone finds a way, food production can also be improved.”
Jiang Gu nodded solemnly. Even though she hadn’t seen one, she had heard of airplanes.
As they were talking, the seeds Jiang Xia had watered three times with interspace water gradually matured and bore fruit.
Jiang Xia compared the vegetables grown from the interspace seeds with those grown from ordinary seeds.
Firstly, the vegetables grown from interspace seeds were larger and of better quality than those grown from ordinary seeds. If the plant bore multiple fruits, the ones from the interspace produced more. From this, it seemed that if the villagers planted short-season crops from the interspace, even if they didn’t plant much, it would have a significant impact.
Jiang Gu looked at the attractive large white radish, her mouth watering. This radish looked so juicy and delicious.
Seeing Jiang Gu’s eager expression, Jiang Xia couldn’t help but laugh. She picked up the radish in front of Jiang Gu, washed it clean with the water in the bucket, and handed it to her.
“Try it and see how it tastes?”
Hearing her sister’s words, Jiang Gu took the white radish and took a bite.
Eating raw white radish can carry a hint of spice and bitterness. Jiang Xia wasn’t a fan of this in her modern life, but in these times, having food to eat was already a luxury. Moreover, the white radish from Jiang Xia’s special space, despite its initial spiciness and bitterness, left a gentle sweetness on the palate, and was satisfyingly crisp and juicy upon chewing.
After finishing one bite, Jiang Gu couldn’t wait to take another.
After a few big bites, a third of the large white radish had been devoured by Jiang Gu. Seeing that Jiang Gu was about to eat more, Jiang Xia hurriedly stopped her.
The white radish is rich in vitamin C and dietary fiber, which are indeed beneficial to the body.
Eating raw white radish occasionally can promote metabolism and intestinal peristalsis, helping to quickly expel toxins and waste from the body.
However, everything should be consumed in moderation. Eating too much white radish at once could possibly cause uncomfortable reactions, such as abdominal pain or diarrhea..
