Chapter 16 The spring flood is coming, and the tourists are happy
After Professor Lin's new home was built, Boss Zhang led the engineering team to start the construction of the small project entrusted by Liu Wen, and after it was completed, they could not leave.
Yang Yong and Xue Fang saw that Professor Lin rented land to build a house, and they also moved their minds, and at a price of 1,000 yuan per mu per year, they also rented three acres of land next to Professor Lin's new home to build a new house.
Yang Yong's father is not in good health, with high blood pressure, coronary heart disease and other chronic diseases, Yang Yong plans to take his parents to Liu Jiachong for a period of recuperation after the new home is built.
Yang Yong's father originally ran a company, but then his health was not good, Yang Yong had little interest in managing the company, and he was indeed not a qualified helmsman. Yang Yong's father had no choice but to sell the company, and all the money from the sale of the company was used to invest in real estate.
Yang Yong's father is really well-intentioned, as long as these houses are not sold, Yang Yong and his wife and Xiao Haohao can live a chic life.
The two little monkeys should be called Huanhuan and Lele now, the one with a small handful of white hair on the back of the head is called Huanhuan, which is a male monkey, and the other smaller female monkey is called Lele, which is still the name given by Liu Wen's mother. There are also two small squirrels that have names, the larger male squirrel is called Huohuo, and the smaller female squirrel is called Honghong.
Professor Lin and Mrs. Lin sometimes take some peanuts and melon seeds in their hands, as long as they wave and call their names, the little squirrel will climb down from under the longan tree, and sit on its two small front paws to grasp the food flexibly.
With Huanhuan and Lele, Laifu and Zhaocai completely lost the favor of Liu Wen's mother, as long as the two puppies saw Liu Wen, they would keep spoiling, and Liu Wen would follow wherever he went, for fear that he would also lose favor here in Liu Wen.
This morning, Liu Wen took a bag of ryegrass seeds, followed by two puppies, and went to the Taoyuan side to accept the cabin and the wild boar house and sow the seeds by the way.
The peach blossoms in the peach orchard are now almost gone, and the number of butterflies is much lower than in the past, but there are also many tourists every day, because there are two more big wild boars in the peach orchard. Qiang Qiang and Chubby were the names given to wild boars by young tourists, and after a long time, everyone accepted the name.
Qiang Qiang is the male wild boar, to say the least, it weighs more than 300 pounds, and Fat is a female wild boar, which is slightly smaller. Now the two wild boars don't need Liu Wen to feed them at all, and tourists come to feed them every day, and take photos of the interaction with the wild boars by the way.
Boss Zhang and the workers were finishing the finishing work, Liu Wen walked over to say hello, and smoked a cigarette handed over by Boss Zhang. Liu Wen looked at the quality of the cabin and the wild boar house, nodded with satisfaction, settled the balance and sent Boss Zhang and his party away.
Liu Wen sprinkled ryegrass seeds soaked in space spiritual liquid everywhere in the peach orchard, strong and strong are very obedient, and they arch the soil in the peach orchard if they have nothing to do, now is really the time to sow the seeds, as soon as the spring flood arrives, the seeds will take root and sprout and thrive.
The bamboo roots of the Xiangfei bamboo and the lotus seeds of the dancing concubine lotus that Professor Lin specially ordered from other places arrived yesterday afternoon. Professor Lin also asked Liu Wen if he needed to plant some as well? Liu Wen shook his head, thinking that it would be better to plant the native species of Liujia Village.
Bamboo choose those small bamboos, lotus, the east of the Changgan Reservoir and the Bailu River junction is covered with a lot of lotus, just the villagers gave Professor Lin some native products have some lotus roots, before I have time to eat, I plan to plant these.
A few days ago, Boss Zhang instructed the workers to drive an excavator and dig out a lot of silt from the ditch in front of Liu Wen's house, which was used to lay the bottom of the pond so that it was convenient to plant lotuses.
In the morning, Professor Liu Wen and Professor Lin came to this pile of dry straw, which stumbled together, which was not only convenient for transportation but also a good base fertilizer for lotus roots.
Today, there are also many villagers who fish up silt in the shallow water by the ditch and go ashore, some of them are also stumbling straw and wheat straw to make fertilizer to grow crops, and some are directly shoveled up and piled on the shore, so that they can cultivate early rice seedlings.
Liu Wen put down a handful of straw, used a rake to completely twist the straw and silt into a ball, and then hooked it with a rake and threw it to the other side.
The last time the excavator hooked the silt, there were a lot of bear children who came to pick up the panicked yellow eels and loaches in the mud, but I didn't expect that there were a lot of more than left today, and after a while, Liu Wen picked up more than a dozen loaches and two yellow eels with more than two taels.
These small surprises from time to time made Professor Lin more and more energetic, and after mixing all the mud with the straw, Professor Lin was still a little unsatisfied.
Liu Wen went home and brought a small bucket, packed the loach and yellow eel in the mud pit, and after washing it, he saw that there were still a lot. There are thirty or forty loaches, all of which are relatively fat, and there are more than a dozen yellow eels, most of which have two or three taels, and the yellow eels and loaches are enough to eat a meal.
The yellow eel can be eaten at noon today, and the loaches should be put in the water, and the impurities in the stomach can be spit out for a few more days.
At noon, I fried garlic seedlings and fried yellow eel, after the yellow eel was slaughtered and the stomach was taken out, the head was nailed up with a nail, and the flesh and bone were separated with a stroke on both sides of the knife. After the yellow eel meat is cut into sections and marinated, it is put into the oil and stir-fried, adding green onions, ginger, garlic, and peppercorns, and finally pouring in the garlic sprouts and stir-frying them before they are served on the table.
In the afternoon, Liu Wen planned to go to the county seat, there was no hatchery in the town, and he could only go to the county seat to order chicken seedlings. It is about 700 meters from Ganlu Spring to Liu Wen's home, and Liu Wen's parents and Professor Lin and his wife are also old, so it is still a little difficult to carry water back from Ganlu Spring.
Came to the county to find the hatchery and successfully ordered 500 chicks, Liu Wen mainly wanted to sell eggs, and the hatchery owner recommended a special ability to lay eggs of cinnamon chicks, Liu Wen paid a deposit, and agreed to let the hatchery boss send Liu Jiachong after Qingming.
Coming to a building materials store, Liu Wen explained his intentions, and the owner waved his hand, saying that this kind of small project can be done in one day, and he will come to Liujia Village tomorrow morning to ensure that the water can be opened in the afternoon. At three o'clock in the afternoon, the water pipe installed in the yard of Liu Wen's house and Professor Zhao's new home flowed out of the clear manna spring well water, and the water pipe on Professor Lin's side still had an interface, so that Yang Yong's house could also be connected to the water. After Liu Wen planted the small bamboo and lotus root, there was nothing to do for the time being, just waiting for the spring flood to come, and the spring flood was the beginning of spring sowing.
"Shalala! "It's raining in spring, and the rain in spring is not as swift and fierce as in summer, but it's fine and long enough, and the rain has been raining for a day and two nights before it slowly begins to weaken, but it doesn't stop, and the sky is still drifting like a silky light rain, drifting around with the wind.
Water began to rise in several ditches in Liujiachong, and muddy rainwater flowed from the two ditches to the reservoir. The ditch that flows to the rice paddy area, the clear well water of Ganlu Spring, was also stained with rain water, and soon the rice fields were filled with water and overflowed to the reservoir.
Early in the morning of the third day, today happened to be the weekend, and the sky was still drizzling, and Yang Yong and Xue Fang, who had been notified by Liu Wen, came to Liu Wen's house with Xiao Haohao. I heard that I was going to catch fish, Professor Lin was also interested, Liu Wen and Yang Yong's family were wearing raincoats, but Professor Lin deliberately put on an old hat and an old coat found from Liu Wen's utility room, and said ostentatiously, so that he was more like a fisherman.
Many of the fish in the reservoir like to swim upstream, especially carp and crucian carp, and the water from the three ditches flows to the reservoir, with the most fish in the rice field, because the well water of the Ganlu Spring contains a small amount of aura, which is more favored by the fish.
Dense fish, all kinds of grass carp, carp, crucian carp, catfish, bream, black fish, and some of their small trash fish bravely compete to be the first along the small ditch used to irrigate the rice fields, and soon many rice fields are filled with large and small fish.
Tourists and villagers who stayed behind or were notified in advance due to the rain were holding all kinds of fishing tools, some with fishing nets, some with kites, some with nets, some with dustpans, and some confident people ready to catch fish with their bare hands, and the funny thing is that a few bear children also used their rotten mosquito nets to catch fish.
Some people brought rain gear, and some of them ignored the light rain on their bodies, and all their thoughts were on the fish, and they were happy and excited to catch the fish. "Haha! I caught a big carp, I can barely hold it with both hands, the fish in this reservoir are really wild!!" a voice rang out somewhere in the crowd.
"Hey, come and see this big crucian carp I caught, it is estimated that it is almost two catties, it is really the big brother of crucian carp, and it must taste very good when used to cook soup." Another voice rang out from another part of the crowd.
There are also some people who bow their heads and catch fish in a muffled voice, and when they meet others, they exclaim when they see the fish in the bucket and exclaim: "Alas! The technology is not good! I haven't caught a lot of big ones!"
Liu Wen and his group came to the mouth of the reservoir in the rice field area, it was too late, and it had already been occupied by others. Deng Hongxia's dog and baby took five or six of their old customers to occupy the most advantageous position, and Liu Wen saw Zhang Chi Chengyang and the two catching fish were happy and crazy, regardless of the fact that his legs and arms had been wet with water. The fish in the reservoir are moving against the current regardless of the danger, and the water at the mouth of the water is the most rapid and not very deep, and the goal is so obvious that catching fish is like picking up fish for nothing. "This Deng Hongxia is a good person, no wonder there are many repeat customers at home. Liu Wen sighed, said hello to a few people by the mouth of the water and walked towards the rice field.
The water in the other two ditches is too deep, and it is estimated that no fish can be caught with the tools in the hands of Liu Wen and others, but fortunately, this rice field area is large enough and there are enough fields, and there are many fish swimming into each field.
