Chapter 504: Hometown

"What is the pond?" asked Uncle Li. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Li Mo's parents speak the Caozhen dialect, which is divided into Chinese dialects, Jianghuai dialect, close to Mandarin, but not Mandarin. If you speak quickly, it is not easy for outsiders to understand.

Uncle Li often interacts with Li Mo's family, and he is no stranger to this dialect.

Li Mo explained what it means to hit a pond.

"I'll take a look," Uncle Li and Uncle Qin also became interested.

"You should send Aunt Liu and Aunt Song to the ferry first. Li Mo said.

I left early today, and now it's only in the afternoon, after the transition to Cao He, Aunt Liu and Aunt Song still have a long way to go, and at the end of the year, they also want to go home early.

Uncle Qin sent them away, but there was a road in front of Li Zhuang, and they were sent to the street quickly.

Li Mo took a pack of cigarettes.

He doesn't smoke, but when he meets someone, he has to smoke freely, and he doesn't know where this habit came from...... Anyway, the leaders of the Tobacco Bureau must have rejoiced at this habit.

The big ditch contracted by Li Guanglong's family is the main drainage ditch of Liuyewei.

This ditch almost runs through most of the willow leaf polder, there are some ponds and bridges in the middle, the pond ridge is not a dead pond ridge, and the cement pipe is placed below, so that the main drainage ditch is separated into a section. Some of the ditches have been contracted, and some of them have not yet been contracted.

The ditch behind Lizhuang belongs to one of the branches, the south is behind Lizhuang, the north is the road from Chen Village to Litan Village, in addition to the ditch ridge, there is also a stone bridge, forming an oblique upward upturned reverse "F" shape. If the two bifurcations are included, the total length together is about 700 meters, nearly 20 acres of water area.

Li Guanglong's family contracted this big ditch, or Li Mo proposed it.

For the clan, Li Mo's father is very enthusiastic, Li Tan Village built an ancestral hall, posted music, rowed dragon boats, dragon lanterns and other activities, Li Guangping will immediately take out a share of the money.

However, Li Mo was very cold.

Because in Li Mo's previous life, he had dealt with some people in Li Tan Village, who were from a "big village", and they didn't know you at all, and even beat your idea.

Even if Li Guang usually goes to Li Tan Village, only a few people such as Li Guanglong really have contact with Li Guangping.

For such a clan, Li Mo must have no sense of identity.

But for Li Guanglong's family, Li Mo still felt very cordial.

So this proposal was made.

Liuye Wei is close to the Yangtze River, even the ditches and ponds in the polder are mostly different from the north, often an inconspicuous small ditch, can reach several meters deep. In the past few decades, China lacked chemical fertilizers, so the state encouraged the common people to use some tools and boats to scoop up the silt from the ditches and cover the fields to fertilize the fields.

As for the effect, Li Mo is not an expert in this area, but there is one thing he still remembers very clearly. For example, in a single night (single-season stem rice), when he was a child, one mu of land could harvest seven or eight hundred catties, even if it was a good harvest, this is a big mu, and it is only five hundred or dozens of catties when converted into a standard mu. But later, the good one per mu in a single night can be close to 2,000 catties, and the ordinary one can reach more than 1,000 catties. There is the seed factor, and there is also the fact that the silt can never dry up the fertilizer.

These ditches are constantly fishing under the mud, getting deeper and deeper, just like the big ditch behind, don't look at its widest point is only about 30 meters, but the deepest part can reach seven or eight meters deep, and the depth of the inland sea of Shajiao Sea is comparable to the depth.

In addition, at this time, there is no technology in fish farming, that is, the fry are bought, and they are thrown into the pond, and they don't know how to place the aerator or use the fish feed, and the density of the fish is not large, so the ditch is full of many aquatic plants.

But in the future, many farmers planted cotton, which, unlike rice, is inseparable from water, so the mud has always remained sticky. However, most of the cotton has to be drained, and after the high temperature evaporates in the summer, the ridges are soft, and a heavy rain, or a single irrigation, can carry a lot of soil into the ditches with the water.

Don't look at the pond in front of Li Mo's house, it is not big, and it can be close to two meters deep at this time. However, after the new century, as the soil from the cotton fields was poured in, there was no one to remove the silt, so the ditches became shallower and shallower. Like the pond in front of Li Mo's house, except for the silt nearly half a person deep, the real water depth is less than one meter. The same is true of the big ditch at the back, the southernmost fork, that is, the fork behind Lizhuang, is completely silted, and the main ditch is not much deeper.

Therefore, many people who do not understand attack the Three Gorges......

If there is no Three Gorges, this is a very bad trend.

These ditches are getting shallower, which means that the water storage in the rainy season is also getting less and less, so to avoid waterlogging, they have to be discharged into the river.

However, without the impoundment of the Three Gorges, the water level of the Yangtze River rises sharply during the rainy season, and the sluices of the tributaries of the Yangtze River will inevitably be closed, and the water of the tributaries will not be allowed to be discharged into the Yangtze River.

Drown!

The construction of the Three Gorges has not started, and the ditches and ponds have not been seriously silted, but because of the serious damage to the water and soil, since this year, throughout the 90s, floods have been mercilessly punishing China.

But the current Dagou is undoubtedly the most suitable for fish farming.

At Li Mo's suggestion, Li Guangping contracted this ditch at the end of the year before last, and the contract period was six years in total. Moreover, Li Mo bought some books on fish farming for his family, and suggested digging a pond every two years, so that the fish could be raised a little bigger and sell better.

Wrap the pond, you have to send someone to see the pond, although the situation of Liu Yewei is much better now, but there are still cases of stealing chickens and dogs, if no one looks at the pond, there will be people stealing fish.

It just so happens that the relationship between the two families is also very close, and sometimes Li Guanglong occasionally comes to Li Mo's house and drinks two drinks with Li Guangping.

When it was time to hit the pond, Li Guangping also went to help.

Li Mo's two younger brothers were naughty and mischievous, and followed to see the excitement.

The ditch was about to drain out, and the fish rushed into the ditch to the north...... Because the water of the fork ditch in the north is the deepest and widest, as for the fork ditch in the south, although it is long, it is shallow and narrow, Li Zhuang people call it the eagle's head, and the main ditch of the big ditch is the fork ditch in the north, and the tip of the ditch in the south is the tip of the ditch.

Two little women in Li Zhuang took a few half-grown children under the "eagle head", which is also a habit of Cao Zhen, generally the master will drain the pond, catch the fish, and then use a shovel to paddle the silt, because there are some carp, crucian carp and black fish in the silt, if you are lucky, you can also row out a few soft-shelled turtles.

After rowing and pulling, the rest will not matter, at this time the surrounding folks will also come down to join in the fun, although rowing again, there are some pits, there are also some small crucian carp inside, and other small miscellaneous fish, if you are lucky, maybe you can pick up the leak, touch one or two big fish.

Li Mo's father is not here, Li Mo still has to go forward, he must bypass the stone bridge, and then to the east, which is today's "main battlefield".

This pocket is a mile away.

But it's not too far.

From a distance, I saw more than a dozen people standing on the ditch, some of them Li Guanglong's family, and a few of them fishmongers.

September is also available.

She shouted from afar, "Brother." ā€

"Be careful, don't fall. Li Mo hurriedly shouted.

But Li Mo's father doesn't care, the ditch is drained, it really falls, it's a big deal to take it home to change a set of clothes, raise a child, that can be spoiled......

There are also primary three and four.

There was a leap month in the lunar calendar of 90, so the Spring Festival in 91 came relatively late.

Today has come to the end of the sixty-nine, five-nine-six-nine along the river to see the willow, referring to the willow tree has officially sprouted, seventy-nine rivers open, eighty-nine swallows come. Compared with the Central Plains, the spring in Cao Zhen undoubtedly came a little earlier, and the Liujiu River opened without Qijiu, and there was no ice in sight.

It's still a little cold, but it's running around, and it's afternoon, so it's not cold.

Seeing that Li Guanglong's family was catching fish, Li Mo's two younger brothers directly took off their shoes, rolled up the corners of their trousers, and ran down to help.

Li Guangping did not object, but he thought that the two sons were used to following the eldest brother, and it was a good thing for them to suffer a little.

Li Guanglong's family has more sons, five sons, the eldest son is married, but all of them came together, and they also went down to catch fish together, some were wearing long rubber shoes, and some were barefoot like Li Mo's two younger brothers.

Li Mo hugged September, and September said, "Brother, I have seen your big car from afar." ā€

"September's eyes are good. ā€

Li Mo approached.

There is also a puddle of water that has not been drained out, there are many fish in it, most of them are common freshwater fish, silver carp, fat head (silver carp, bighead carp), herring carp (herring fish), white carp (grass carp), carp, crucian carp, small ginseng fish, and a few bream, Li Mo also saw a few large yellow eels from the fish bucket, some large shrimp and ang male fish.

It seems that the harvest is not small.

Li Mo snorted a few times.

Li Guanglong said loudly under the ditch: "Little Mozi, if you have a chance, you can't forget to go home." ā€

Li Mo didn't explain, just smiled.

He turned his head again to look into the distance, and near him were fields of rape and wheat.

This is the polder center (polder, in order to prevent flooding, the earliest villages in the polder area are on the high ground or on the edge of the polder, so the polder contains another meaning, referring to the place that is far away from the village and is quieter), only farmland, nothing else.

To the south is the road that he financed to build through the whole polder, and at the moment there are still relatively few cars, mostly old-fashioned motor tricycles, and only occasionally a truck or passenger car can be seen passing by. As for the sedan, without the leaders from above, it is almost invisible.

However, in the vicinity of the villages, you can see many vegetable greenhouses.

Because of the TV purchasing turmoil, Li Mo held his breath in his heart, although the road was built throughout the whole polder, and the road was not repaired, but it was like this, combined with the vegetable greenhouse, it also brought great changes to Liuyewei.

As a result, more and more buildings appeared.

Including Li Zhuang, except for Li Dafu's family, who did not have a son, the remaining families also built buildings.

Li Mo advanced this time by ten years, and then there were two situations, one was debt, although the vegetable greenhouse brought a lot of additional income to everyone, but the accumulation in everyone's hands was too small. In the early eighties, most, like Li Guangping's family, had almost nothing. Although I earned some money, I usually need to spend a lot of money on marriage, funeral, birth, old age, sickness and death. The more you earn, the more you spend, just like Li Guangping's family, they have to pay tens of thousands of yuan a year. Of course, it is impossible for ordinary people to spend so much, but it also costs one or two thousand yuan.

So most people will have some debt after building a house.

The second is to work harder, now building a building in the countryside is still not less expensive than buying a house in the city, so in order to make money, I have to desperately grow a variety of greenhouse vegetables, and even like Li Yi's family, let my son go out to work to get more extra income.

As a result, the area of greenhouses is increasing, so that around the surrounding villages, there are pieces of plastic film shining.

Li Mo's support for his hometown is not enough, but it can be regarded as support, at least it has allowed everyone to slow down for nearly ten years. If it weren't for him, like Li Mo's previous life, in the nineties and ten years, the farmers of Liuyewei were working hard to build a small building. I finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the trend changed again, and if I wanted my son to marry a wife, I had to buy houses in various towns...... If you don't have a good side job, with the income of the peasants, you want to buy houses in the cities and towns, it is impossible to do it. So they tried to find a way outside, but the money outside was not easy to earn...... To some extent, people are becoming more and more snobbish, but behind this snobbery, it is the result of the general environment. It seems that the living conditions are getting better and better, but in fact, it is indeed getting more and more tired.

Uncle Li was taking off his suit and shoes, and Li Mo asked strangely, "Uncle Li, what are you going to do?"

"Go down and help. ā€

"It's cold. ā€

"Boss, what's cold, I used to be a soldier in the Northeast, that's called cold. ā€

Li Mo understood, and he was so idle, especially Uncle Li, I am afraid that it was the first time he saw this scene and wanted to have a good time.

Uncle Li rolled up the corners of his trousers high, there was not much silt under his eyes, only a thin layer in most places, but there was still a lot of stagnant water under the ditch...... But even if you roll up the corners of your pants, you will get stains on your body, but who cares.

Uncle Li ran down to catch fish, and while catching fish, he was also talking to Li Guangping and Li Guanglong.

After a while, Uncle Qin came over and ran down......

"Brother, sing and sing. September was held by Li Mo on the shore and said.

Two movies have been released one after another.

"The Railroader" has an overseas box office of nearly $30 million, and more than 100 copies have been sold in China, and "The Time Traveler's Wife" has reached nearly $80 million at the overseas box office, and nearly 300 copies have been sold in China.

The biggest winners of the Golden Rooster Awards in 90 are "The Founding Ceremony", "Dream of Red Mansions", and "Deep Courtyard", because there was too late, Li Mo's two films were not shortlisted, but they are still eligible to compete next year, but Li Mo is not interested.

The biggest winners of the 90-year Hundred Flowers Award are "The Founding Ceremony", "Dream of Red Mansions", "Deep Courtyard", and "The Year of Destiny" and "Towering Kunlun" also won the best feature film. Well, "The Founding Ceremony" is a red movie, and it is not an accident that people can win. "Dream of the Red Chamber" is the most elegant novel of China's four great novels, and it is no accident that it won. So what is the movie "Deep Courtyard" adapted from Qiong Yao?

According to Song Haijun, although "The Railroader" received a good response, it was all rejected because there were ghosts in it.

Now there is no Internet in China, and all media almost completely serve the various machines of the state, and if they are eliminated, they will be eliminated, and no one will be wronged for Li Mo.

However, some media still implicitly reported the overseas box office of Li Mo's two films, after all, they are different from award-winning films such as "Red Sorghum", which rely on burying China, they are all films that reflect China's positive energy, create a high box office, and win glory for the country.

In fact, if you think a little deeper, they are not only winning glory for the country...... Li Mo didn't have that idea, and let foreigners know more about China, rather than the closed country they imagined.

is not only a movie, but Li Mo's Beth is actually equivalent to exporting Chinese culture in a different direction.

The support for scientific and technological research and development plays an immeasurable role.

Although China is too large for Li Mo to build this house alone, with his current assets, it is far from being a "screw", at least it can play an important role as a pillar.

The audience doesn't pay much attention to whether they win awards or not, but mostly think that the movie is better and a few songs in it are better. On which side of the Xiangjiang River, the song "Sea and Sky" also attracted the attention of many people, and Li Mo deliberately handed over this song to Huang Jiaju. In fact, there is no such song, Huang Jiaju has also created many excellent songs, such as "Earth" and "Glorious Years", but Li Mo still felt that he couldn't go away, not only handed over this song to Huang Jiaju for free, but also used a word of invitation, and also granted him the right to adapt.

Huang Jiaju was inexplicable at first, but after seeing the song, he immediately liked it. Anyway, Li Mo has a lot of money and doesn't care about this copyright fee, so Huang Jiaju really made some subtle adaptations and took it out to sing.

Some people compare the singing of the two and think that Huang Jiaju sings better, of course, no one looks down on Li Mo, Li Mo has crossed so many industries and has outstanding performances in every industry, can ordinary people do it?

However, outside of the Chinese area, the related records and tapes did not sell very well, and many of them sold pure soundtrack records and tapes. These songs have also attracted the attention of some musicians in China, not the sea and the sky, then when you hear it, you will know that it is Li Mo's music created in imitation of Hong Kong flavor. What really caught people's attention was another interlude, the Chinese-style "Bead Curtain", which undoubtedly opened a bright skylight for many musicians, allowing them to see more beautiful scenery outside the window.

This is the opinion of the insider, and the layman only thinks it is good. Tapes are also selling well...... But all of them were pirated tapes from various pirate manufacturers.

Li Mo sang two songs.

A few fishmongers in the vicinity saw his mild attitude and also came over to talk.

Most of them were people from several nearby villages, but Li Mo didn't know any of them.

Li Mo thought in his heart, it's not his hometown, it's about to become his hometown......
