Chapter 5, digging ponds and planting trees

After a night's good sleep in exchange for the next day's refreshment, Yang Chengzhi got up at seven o'clock, finished his hygiene, and saw that the sunspot was still asleep.

Pushing the door to the courtyard, I wanted to know the fruits of yesterday's day's labor. When I walked to the vegetable bed, I saw that the vegetable seedlings planted yesterday were all green and shiny, standing in the field like sentinels.

Yang Chengzhi was overjoyed, the experiment was successful, and the jade pendant was indeed a cheating artifact for planting crops.

Yang Chengzhi looked up to the sky and roared, the master is back again, this roar doesn't matter, it frightened a pair of mice who were talking about love in the corner of the yard, and also woke up the sleeping sunspot.

Heizi ran out and yelled at Yang Chengzhi, venting his dissatisfaction in his heart. Yang Chengzhi glanced at the sunspot. My heart was also sour.

Originally, a high-achieving student with lofty ambitions experienced the most painful thing in his life in less than two months, his body was disabled, his high-paying job was lost, and he had to leave the girl he liked because of his appearance.

Now a magical jade pendant space has activated that young and turbulent heart, and Yang Chengzhi wants to use this magical space to create his own future from scratch.

Looking at the empty yard, Yang Chengzhi pondered, planting some vegetables in the yard, this idea was immediately dispelled, yesterday half an acre of vegetables, he was tired and half dead, to plant vegetables in five or six acres, then his own fate, he didn't dare to think about it.

Since planting vegetables is too tiring, then this yard can't be empty, look up at the green in the mountains in the distance, you can plant trees without vegetables, the yard is five or six acres, and you can always plant some fruit trees! People are also idle.

I remember that in the sand ditch outside the west wall of the courtyard, there was a mountain spring, and I was still fishing for shrimp and fish there when I was a child. After a long period of planning, Yang Chengzhi planned to dig a one-acre pond near the west wall to raise fish, leave about one and a half acres to build a chicken coop to raise chickens, and the rest of the place was an acre of vegetable land, and the rest would be planted with fruit trees.

made up his mind, Yang Chengzhi came to Uncle Qiang's house, Uncle Qiang was also planning to work in the field, seeing Yang Chengzhi's arrival, the farm tools in his hand at the moment, "Chengzhi: I'm still used to living these days, come to Uncle Qiang's house if there is anything missing at home, don't take it personally." ”

Yang Chengzhi waved his hand and said, "Uncle Qiang, I also grew up in the village, so delicate." If you want to have something, you must find Uncle Qiang first, by the way, Uncle Qiang, I want to discuss something with you, but you don't think so."

"What's the matter, as long as Uncle Qiang can do it well", looking at Yang Chengzhi, who had changed greatly in front of him, Uncle Qiang said: "Uncle Qiang, I remember that there is a mountain spring outside the west wall of my house, I don't know if there is water now, you see that my yard is also empty, and I plan to dig a pond in the courtyard to raise fish, Uncle Qiang doesn't think so."

Uncle Qiang lit a cigarette, thought for a while and said, "The mountain spring in the sand ditch still had water a few years ago, but a few years ago there was a heavy rain, and the sand in the ditch collapsed and blocked the mountain spring, if you want to dig a pond in the yard, you have to find someone to remove the sand pressed on the sand ditch mountain spring, I remember the general location of the mountain spring, it seems that the sand on it is not too much." It's almost enough to find three or four people to dig for a day."

"Uncle Chengqiang, the farm work is not too busy these days, you go to find a few people, see how much money is dug in the yard by the way to dig a one-acre pond in the yard, you find a good person to talk to me, I also have a preparation." ”

"Okay, Chengzhi, I'll go out to find someone for you in a while, I'll touch about seven or eight people and finish it in three or four days,"

"Then Uncle Qiang, please leave this matter to you, I'll go to the county first to ask if there are fruit seedlings, and by the way, buy a refrigerator, settle down with some meat and vegetables, don't finish the house and have nothing." ”

Uncle Qiang smiled, "You can rest assured that you will go to the county seat, and when you come back, Uncle will go to your house to find you......"

After settling down, Yang Chengzhi went out and waited for the car to go to the county seat.

When he came to the county seat, he was stupid again, Pingcheng, a poor mountain and bad water, basically relied on God for food, and few people planted fruit trees.

He suddenly thought of the seed company, maybe they could bring in a batch of seedlings from somewhere else.

Yang Chengzhi walked to the seed company's store, or the middle-aged woman a few days ago, saw Yang Chengzhi come in and asked in a daze, "How about the seeds that big brother bought that day, what else do you need?" ”

"It's okay, eldest sister, take me two more packets of everything, and by the way, eldest sister, you know that we have fruit tree saplings for sale here, and my yard plans to plant some fruit trees," Yang Chengzhi asked.

"Big brother, you are asking people, you also know that we rarely plant that thing, but it just so happens that I have a batch of fruit trees under my hands, my family has a relative who bought a batch of seedlings from the field the year before last, planted for two years, because he does not understand the technology of fruit trees, he saw the seedlings and did not see the hanging fruits, no less money, planting fruit trees is not good and plans to go out to work, and also want to sell that batch of fruit seedlings, you wait first, I will ask if the seedlings are there. ”

A few minutes later, the middle-aged woman looked happy, "Big brother, the saplings are still there, but it's a little too much,"

Yang Chengzhi asked, "How much?"

"There are 120 apricot trees in Hami, more than 20 plum trees, and two jujube trees for no money, a total of 5,000, what do you think," the middle-aged woman said.

Yang Chengzhi thought about it for a while. A tree is about forty years old, and the age of the tree is really not expensive at all. "Then Sister Cheng, you remember my number, let him dig a tree and send it to Yangjiagou, I am two hundred more in front of the car, what do you see. ”

"Okay, I'll tell him in a moment and ask him to dig up the tree quickly. ”

After the matter of the saplings was solved, Yang Chengzhi went to the bank to take out the remaining more than 30,000 yuan, sold a refrigerator, bought some meat and vegetables, bought a few Hongta Mountains of ten yuan, moved a few boxes of mineral water, and bought more than 20 live carp, and hired a car to go home.

When he got home, the driver helped move everything in and left, Yang Chengzhi closed the door, carried the fish into the space, and put the more than 20 carp into the space pond, (Yang Chengzhi felt that the space water was so magical, and it was not a problem to feed these carp) Looking at the carp swimming happily in the water, Yang Chengzhi knew that this decision was right again.

After lunch, Yang Chengzhi was sitting in the house, stunned, and heard the door ring, "Chengzhi is not." ”

Yang Chengzhi hurriedly went out and saw that Uncle Qiang brought eight middle-aged people in with tools, "Uncle Qiang, you are here, come into the house and drink some water first," Yang Chengzhi said busily.

These eight people are also from the village, although it is a village, but Yang Chengzhi has been studying and is not very familiar with it.

"Cheng Zhi: These eight are all good laborers in our village, a leader in the work, forty a day, and a round meal after the project is completed. Uncle Qiang looked at Yang Chengzhi and said.

"Uncle Cheng Qiang, you can do it", turned around and went into the house and took a Hongta Mountain plug bought back in the morning to Uncle Qiang, and asked Uncle Qiang to distribute it to everyone to smoke first, and a few middle-aged men were embarrassed, and said, "Say that you are forty a day, and you are taking this cigarette, then ......"

Yang Chengzhi saw that a few people were embarrassed, "Several uncles, all from the same village, don't be embarrassed, I'll ask everyone for help if I have something in the future, don't be embarrassed if you're all smokers." When it comes to these people, they don't shirk.

"Uncle Qiang's pond is dug up, and I plan to use bricks and stones to build a base wall around it, what do you think. ”

"Cheng, it will save trouble after using bricks and stones, you don't have to worry about this matter, Uncle Qiang will do it for you. ”

After a few days, the pond was dug up, and a layer of white lime was sprinkled on the dug pond to sterilize and disinfect, and several people went outside the wall to dig a mountain spring pressed under the sand.

On this day, fruit tree saplings were also delivered, and several people planted fruit trees in the backyard and around the pond.

After waiting for another day for the mountain spring to be dug out, everyone built a canal with bricks and stones to lead the spring water to the pond that had already been cleaned up, looking at the spring water flowing into the pond, Uncle Qiang said, the Chengzhi project has been done for a total of five and a half days, one thousand eight, you give one thousand and five will be done.

"No, a few of you are busy before and after, you are busy, I will take the money in a while, two thousand three, they settle the rest of the Uncle Qiang to take it, there are many things to find you in the future, I will go to the county seat to buy some food, and call everyone to have a round meal in the evening." Yang Chengzhi hurriedly said, he didn't want to leave a bad impression in front of Uncle Qiang, he still had a lot of things to do in the future, and he had to ask Uncle Qiang for help, Yang Chengzhi knew.

"Uncle Qiang, let Aunt Qiang come to help in the afternoon."

"Got it," Uncle Qiang agreed.
