Chapter Twenty-Nine: Growing Corn is Busy

The three cars drove into Shuanghe Village in turn, and Tian Fei did not unload at home, but went straight to the Baltou Mountain Pig Farm. One is that there is no such a large place at home to store these seeds and fertilizers; The other is also for the convenience of planting, otherwise you will have to carry these fertilizers from the village to the mountain, so far and laborious, it is better to transport it directly to the foot of the mountain.

The farm has not yet been built, so the seeds and fertilizers have to be kept outside. Tian Fei chose a piece of pig yard foundation, fortunately there were preparations before, and now they have been leveled. Then Tian Fei brought dozens of repaired cedar tree poles to pad on it, and the fertilizer was directly unloaded on it and piled into several piles.

After that, Tian Fei brought a few colored raincloths from home, so that it would not be exposed to the wind and rain.

"Xiaofei, after buying so many seeds and fertilizers, are you going to start planting?"

"Fei Yanzi, you have to call me to plant corn, I promise you won't be lazy."

"Tian Fei, my brother-in-law heard that you planted corn, can you come over, he is from another village."

"Is it really thirty yuan a day for you to ask someone to work, will it be over when you finish it?"

"Dumbo......"

……

This is the case in the countryside, and everyone knows what is going on. Seeing that a few truckloads of things were loaded at the foot of Bald Mountain, everyone almost knew that Tian Fei was going to start planting corn. Then the goods were not unloaded yet, and everyone came over to ask Tian Fei.

"Uncles and aunts, if you want to do something, come here at seven o'clock tomorrow morning. Everyone can rest assured, the salary is thirty-one days, and it will be paid after the work is done. Tian Fei said loudly.

At present, there is not much labor force in the village, and most of the young and middle-aged people have gone out to work. Some of them entered the factory and some worked on the construction site, and most of the people who stayed in the village were women and elderly people, but fortunately, they could do all the work of farming.

Tian Fei wished that more people would work.

"Remember to bring a hoe to those who come to work tomorrow." Tian Fei said to the surrounding villagers.

After unloading the car, it was already more than five o'clock in the afternoon, thanks to many onlookers who came to help, otherwise it would have been unloaded until dark.

……

Seeing off the driver from the city, Tian Fei gathered people non-stop. Corn planting will start tomorrow, and according to Tian Fei's scale and time requirements, more than 100 people must be organized to work together. If so many people are working, there must be a part of the backbone. Otherwise, it will have to be messed up.

Some of these people were the ones who helped Tian Fei cut down the trees, and just after the fir trees were cut down, they continued to come over to help plant corn. Everyone has cooperated for so long, and Tian Fei is also relieved of these people; The other part is Tian Fei's relatives and elders, after the farming, these elders who did not go out to work are idle at home, and they can earn some money when they come to help, and Tian Fei also trusts them.

……

"Dumbo, Dumbo... It's almost up, and all the people in the village who came to help grow corn are almost gone. ”

Still in a dream, Tian Fei was woken up by his father's urging. Look at the alarm clock, it's only five o'clock.

"Dad, why is it so early?"

"Don't you think it's all so early? In the past few years, you have been going to school outside, and in the early years, our family farmed, and we all got up early to work. Tian Fei's father said.

The peasants were very religious in their treatment of the crops in the fields.

It's the middle of summer, and the sun is old at 10 a.m., so if you work outdoors, you have to call it a day, otherwise you will get heat stroke. In order to do more, everyone can only start as early as possible.

After a little washing, Tian Fei and his father rode a motorcycle to Bald Mountain. A few minutes later, I came to Bald Mountain, and found that a large group of people had gathered at the foot of the mountain at this time. Tian Fei roughly estimated that there should be more than a hundred people, all with hoes, and some with dustpans and flat poles. Although the genius is bright, the enthusiasm of the big guy is still very good.

"Xiaofei, we're all here."

"Feizi, you're late to us, hurry up and tell me what we're doing?"

As soon as Tian Fei arrived, everyone gathered around and waited for Tian Fei to assign tasks.

……

"Guys, there are so many of us together, it's not easy to work in a mess, so I think it's going to be divided into ten groups. Let's group each other, not too much and not too little in one group, about a dozen. Tian Fei thought about it, or let everyone do it separately, and it would be more efficient.

"Also, the men and women in each group are evenly distributed, anyway, they won't be divided into tasks, just finish it." Tian Fei continued to add.

After speaking, everyone was divided into ten groups with similar personnel according to their familiarity with each other.

"At present, the soil cannot be planted directly with corn, we have to ridge the land first, and then apply base fertilizer," Tian Fei said loudly.

Since the excavator starts leveling from the top of the mountain to the bottom, everyone starts planting corn from the top of the mountain.

With everyone along the road that had just been built to the top of the mountain, Tian Fei evenly spread the newly grouped people on each layer of terraced soil.

According to Tian Fei's requirements, some people began to organize the land turned over by the excavator into one ridge after another. Tian Fei adopts the method of sowing seeds with 60 cm row spacing.

The other part of the people picked up the fertilizer from the bottom of the mountain and prepared to apply the base fertilizer. There are two kinds of base fertilizer, one is the calcium phosphate fertilizer purchased yesterday, and the other is farmhouse fertilizer, which is actually Tian Fei diluted the pig manure of the pig farm with water.

……

"Since the division of the fields, we have never had so many people working together."

"Isn't it, this kind of large-scale work makes everyone energetic, and the last time I was in such a situation was when we were repairing a reservoir in our village."

……

Everyone worked and discussed enthusiastically.

Tian Fei was also shocked by such a hot collective labor scene.

……

According to 40 kilograms of chemical fertilizer per mu and a number of farmhouse fertilizers mixed with water, we sorted out more than 10 acres of land in the morning. They are all 60 centimeters wide and 15 centimeters wide with fifteen centimeters between each ridge, which can be used to drain water and store water.

Looking at the sun, it was almost eight o'clock. Tian Fei had told the village bun shop before that the buns were delivered, because it was manual work, so Tian Fei ordered five hundred buns, and each person had about four to eat, all of which were meat buns. The buns in this year are still very real, and ordinary people feel very full for both, so four should be enough to eat.

In summer, he can only work in the morning and evening, so Tian Fei also tries to save time and do more, if he eats at home in the village, it will be too wasteful of time to come and go, everyone understands, and he can also eat big meat buns.

……

In the morning, Tian Fei didn't go to Bald Mountain, because he still had one more thing to do first, that is, to prepare the seeds.

Although it is sown directly, it does not mean that the seeds in the bag can be sown in the soil, and the seeds must be treated.
