Mr. Feng replied yes with a smile, and then picked up the compass to explore around, drawing something on the ground from time to time. Books.com

Meng Xi couldn't understand it, so he simply tossed it, and he took the snowflakes around the hill together, thinking about how and where the wall at the foot of the mountain should be repaired.

As for the thorn rose tree, she had already taken a large picture in the depths of the mountain forest, and it would be better to move it over when the time came. At that time, the outside of my yard is like the castle of Sleeping Beauty, surrounded by flowers, and outsiders can't enter at will.

Meng Xi's girl's heart exploded at this moment, and her smile was bright.

Xuehua didn't know what she thought of again, but seeing her smile so happily, she was also happy, and opened her mouth and laughed.

When Mr. Feng came down from the mountain, he saw that the two girls were all smiling, and he also squinted and smiled, and the smile was meaningful, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Crazy old man, have you finished measuring?" Meng Xi was no longer polite when he saw Mr. Feng, but he was not displeased.

"Haha, girl, you are so disrespectful to the old man!" Mr. Feng smiled and counted.

"Hmph, you don't look like an old man at all, let me respect something. Meng Xi sneered.

"Okay, what do you like to call it, I don't care!"

The most annoying thing in this world is that you try your best to anger the other person, but they don't take it to heart at all!

Meng Xi almost choked back his internal injuries.

Seeing that Meng Xi's cheeks were puffed up with anger, Mr. Feng shook his head with a smile, and no longer deliberately angry with her, "Okay girl, don't be angry, I tell you good news that I should make amends!"

"What's the good news?" Meng Xi was not interested.

"I found a hot spring at the top of the mountain, not deep enough to dig a little bit to get water. ”

"Ahh

"Of course it's true, if you don't believe it, let's find someone to dig it up now. Mr. Feng didn't care what Meng Xi teased and called him, but he never allowed others to question his ability.

He is not only a master of looking at the direction of feng shui, but also a master of finding water and finding holes.

Meng Xi hurriedly apologized: "Oh, I'm sorry, don't be careful, I don't doubt your ability, I'm just too excited." Hurry up and take me to see it. ”

Mr. Feng's old face looked better now, "Come with me." ”

Following Mr. Feng to the northwest corner of the mountaintop, Meng Xi saw that this place was indeed not quite different from other places.

It's obviously a little wetter and greener elsewhere. A few days ago, she had had the entire hill cleared, and there was not a single weed left, but in just a few days, it was green again.

Looks like there's something weird about this place.

"Crazy old man, are you sure this must be a hot spring?"

Mr. Feng nodded heavily, his beard flying to his face, "Sure! This must be a big hot spring, and the temperature is not too low, and the amount of water is also very large." If it weren't for the fact that it happened to be at the top of the mountain, I am afraid that it would have been exposed early. ”

Meng Xi got this affirmative answer, and happily didn't know what to say.

"Haha - it looks like my building plans need to be changed, and I can build a huge hot spring bath!"

Mr. Feng also stroked his beard and nodded, "Well, bathing in hot springs is excellent, especially for your girls' skin!"

Yo, this old man really knows a lot!

Meng Xi couldn't help but be impressed by him, he didn't expect him to know how to take hot spring baths! This crazy old man really has some information, and he will dig more in the future.

Mr. Feng was a little hairy by Meng Xi's gaze, and he didn't know which of his words had provoked her again. But seeing that she didn't speak again, he didn't ask much obediently, and saved himself from internal injuries.

Meng Xi circled around this suspected hot spring several times, looking around as he walked around, planning how to make the best use of this natural hot spring.

"Crazy old man, do you think that after this hot spring is dug up, will it run out?"

This is a very important question, in case you try your best to fix the hot spring bath, but it doesn't wait to wash it a few times, and it runs out of water, it will be ridiculous.

"No, the hot springs must be connected to the underground water veins, and as long as there is no major drought or major changes, the flow will not be stopped. Mr. Feng said very firmly, "And the water volume of this hot spring must not be small, now there is no outcrop so much impact, once the outcrop, it must gush out." ”

After receiving a positive answer, the stone in Meng Xi's heart fell to the ground, and he basically thought about how to make this hot spring play its greatest role.

"By the way, crazy old man, how to solve the problem of drinking water in this house?" Meng Xi thought of the problem of well water from the hot spring.

I used to think about how to build a house, but I forgot about the big things, and I couldn't eat water and had to go to the village well to pick it up, right?

That's too much work, and the road is not close, and when you bring the water to your house, how much dust will fall!

If only I could dig a well, it would be perfect.

"I've already helped you choose a good place to dig a well, and when the construction starts, I will help you find someone to dig a well to ensure that the water quality is sweet." Mr. Feng looked stunned, as if to say, "Hurry up and praise me! See how capable I am! Take me in and you will make a fortune." ”

Meng Xi looked at him funny, "Crazy old man, you are awesome!

"Okay!" Mr. Feng was happy, although he didn't lack silver, the more the better.

Meng Xi revised the design sketch again, then gathered people and chose a good day to break ground.

As soon as the villagers heard that Meng Xi was going to start building a house, they all enthusiastically signed up, and even many people came to help without money.

On the day of the chosen good day, the hill was full of people and lively.

Meng Xi first asked Mr. Feng to draw the scope of the entire homestead, and then held a series of ceremonies, and when it was auspicious, the ground was officially broken.

Meng Xi's new home has finally begun to be built!

The family was so excited that they even cried with joy, and finally, the bitterness came.

The villagers were very happy to see them so excited, and at the same time they all quietly fantasized in their hearts about when they would be able to live in a new house. It doesn't have to be so big and luxurious, as long as it is brick, sturdy, spacious, and you don't have to worry about rain leakage and collapse when it rains, that's enough!

With the full support of everyone, the work of digging the foundation was completed in one day, and the work of precipitating the foundation was done according to Mr. Feng's instructions, and the house was officially built after spring ploughing.

Meng Xi was so proud that night that he not only gave twenty yuan to everyone who came to help, but also distributed sugar cubes to the whole village.

At home, a sumptuous dinner was prepared to celebrate this memorable day.

Mr. Feng naturally did not return to the town, in fact, he had decided to stay down and not leave since yesterday. Anyway, there are many rooms in the ancestral hall, so you can live in one casually.

The latest reason he relied on was that the food cooked by Meng Xi was too delicious. With her craftsmanship, the old servant of the house makes it is simply pig food!

An old servant from the imperial kitchen of the family, after hearing his theory, almost fainted in the thatched house crying.

Now as long as Meng Xi cooks, Mr. Feng designates that he is the first table, and the last one to get off the table, does not eat until he is supported, and resolutely does not pick up chopsticks.

When Meng Xi saw his starving ghost reincarnated appearance, he couldn't help but worry, "Hey, crazy old man, you take it easy, don't break it!"

At such an age, is it really okay to be so overeating?

Mr. Feng didn't look up at all, his mouth was stuffed with vegetables, and he muttered, "Don't worry, my old man's stomach is very strong!"

Meng Xi spent two days, and he simply didn't feel surprised, and let him toss it, anyway, he didn't listen, and he couldn't help but know what else he could do.

The lively days passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was time to sow seeds.

At this time, the mountains are full of white plum blossoms, peach blossoms and pear blossoms are also budding, and the fragrance wafts in the mountains, so that people don't feel tired of working.

After Meng Xi asked Yu Tieniu to teach everyone how to use the ploughing ox, he assigned all the hired people to start sowing corn.

When sowing seeds, she also specially notified the whole village to come and observe and learn.

Meng Xi personally demonstrated, telling everyone to first turn the land deeply, and then plough into a furrow one by one, no longer digging pits and burying seeds directly in the ground as in the past.

It was just this first step that made all the villagers puzzled and questioned.

"Miss Meng, our ancestors have been farming flat for generations, you have made a high bulge, and there must be no shortage of water?"

The villagers feel that this is a waste of time and effort, and it will affect the normal growth of corn.

Meng Xi patiently explained to everyone: "Your previous flat planting method is not conducive to the development of corn roots, so corn will not be able to absorb more nutrients, and finally it will not grow well and the yield will be low." And the water shortage you are talking about will definitely not be caused by ridges. On the contrary, flat land planting is prone to waterlogging, and once the rain is excessive, it cannot be drained. ”

The villagers basically didn't understand the previous words, but everyone had a relationship with each other about the last sentence.

However, every rainy year, the yield of corn will be greatly affected, especially in the low-lying fields, where a lot of corn is blistered to death.

Now that Meng Xi can tell such a situation, it seems that she really knows how to farm, or they try to believe her?

The villagers' initial suspicions have gradually been shaken.

Meng Xi saw that no one could refute it anymore, and continued to teach.

After all, the implementation of this new concept cannot be done overnight, and there must be a process for the villagers to accept it, and it should not be rushed.

This year is the year of trial promotion, and it doesn't matter how many villagers follow the seeds, and when they see obvious results in the autumn, they will naturally follow suit.

Meng Xi then demonstrated spacing seeding. Make a small hole about two or three inches deep with a simple planter at every foot width in the ridge, and then put two seeds in it.

The method of placing this seed was decided by her after a germination rate test. The seeds here are generally vigorous, and the germination rate can reach 99%, so two seeds are completely sufficient. When the seedlings grow to a certain height, they must pull out the seedlings and remove the excess ones.

After sowing the seeds, Meng Xi demonstrated "stepping on the lattice", covering the soil with his feet on the surface of the seed pit, and then stepping on it gently, so as to ensure that the "nest" of the seeds does not leak wind or lack water.

After a full set of demonstrations, the villagers were all stunned: it was too troublesome!

In the past, they only had to plough the land to remove the corn roots left after a year's harvest, and then rake the ground and sow the seeds. It had to be all the family to go out and work in a hurry for a spring.

If this is according to Meng Xi's method, they will not sleep endlessly, and they may not be able to spread the entire land in the qi of solar term changes.

Meng Xi heard everyone's doubts, and no longer continued to persuade, anyway, all the methods have been taught to you, and it is your business to listen or not.

After planting two rows of corn and two rows of soybeans, Meng Xi stopped and looked at the onlookers very seriously.

"Folks, I said that I will definitely let everyone live a good life, and you also said that you will believe me! So, don't be intimidated by temporary difficulties, as long as you are willing to endure hardships and be willing to contribute, you will not have a bad life!"

The villagers were immediately touched by this sentence.

Yes, people who dig in the soil, how can they still be troublesome about farming, it's a big deal to work hard, according to Miss Meng's method, as long as you can increase production, no matter how hard you pay, it's not too much!

Seeing that everyone was no longer as repulsed as just now, Meng Xi made persistent efforts and said: "I have already said that I will rent it to everyone to plough cattle, so if the family conditions allow, you can come to me to register, and when my own field is finished, I will immediately arrange it for everyone in the order of registration." ”

Most of the villagers now let go of their prejudices and decided to follow this method, and even bought soybean seeds from Meng Xi.

Meng Xi thought for a while, "Folks, if you believe me and plant soybeans with me, then I will provide this bean seed for free, but there is one point, in the autumn, all the soybeans harvested must be sold to me!"

When the villagers heard this, they immediately agreed in surprise.

Mother, this living bodhisattva is really kind-hearted, and even provides such expensive seeds, so why don't they follow it.

Originally, I was worried that soybeans would be too expensive, and I would not be able to recover the cost if it was not good. And no one has ever grown soybeans, and they don't know how to do it. But now that Meng Xi is providing seeds and demonstrating in person, everyone is less worried and looks forward to it.

If in the autumn, as Meng Xi said, they can really produce two portions of grain from one field, and the yield of corn must be more than before, then their good days are really just around the corner.

The villagers were finally all ready to try, and Meng Xi smiled with satisfaction. The rest of the work was left to the lads, who just watched from the sidelines, occasionally doing technical guidance.

The days of labor, although hard, but everyone's faces are all with happy smiles, spring, sowing hope, autumn, will be able to harvest joy!

There are many people with great strength, and it didn't take five days for Meng Xi's more than 300 acres of fields to be planted.

The villagers were amazed that they couldn't do it, but then they were all happy because they had been able to rent the cattle earlier.
