Chapter 50 Rape Cultivation

At the end of September, when the water in the paddy field began to dry and dry, Zhang Cuihua finally became a D member, and successfully became the captain of Zhang Tao's first team in their village, that is, the village chief of Zhangjiawan. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

(Their name here is a bit confusing, the official name is a group of Huangpu Village, but the names of the villagers are called Bay, and the village chief is sometimes called the team leader, sometimes called the captain, and the later unified name is called the captain, and the production team is a team, that is, a group of Zhangjiawan in Huangpu Village.) )

"It's all expected!" The old captain finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he could rest, Zhang Tao's mother was cultured enough. Coupled with the fact that their family has developed vigorously this year, and the identity of the D member, the people in Houwan who took over as the captain did not have too many opinions, and this position could be regarded as a seat.

It's just that Zhang Tao knows that things are not so simple, because the above is about to be announced. Calling on the entire brigade to plant how many acres of rape should be planted in every household, responding to the painstaking efforts of the leaders above, etc., this can actually be regarded as creating some economic benefits for the people in the village.

It's just that the rape crop was introduced at this time, and the villagers are not familiar with this thing at all, and they are not very interested. And I heard others say that the smell of vegetable oil is particularly strong and I am more disgusted, so they all wait and see, and even a little resistant to this thing.

As soon as the cadres of the brigade saw that they could not complete the tasks handed over by the above, they sent this instruction to each squad. also added a special order, the team will not be able to grow enough rapeseed to pay a fine, and then the team leaders will go to collect the money one by one.

This happened in Zhang Tao's previous life, and there was a lot of trouble. The villagers have so much land at home, and they don't know that rape can actually be planted in paddy fields, as long as it is well drained. Conventional thinking makes them think that rape is a vegetable and should be planted in dry land.

However, in the dry land, we need to grow vegetables to make some cash crops, and we also need to grow winter wheat, so how can there be any remaining land to grow rape? So in the first year, there were few people who paid attention to the instructions above, everyone didn't plant, and the village cadres couldn't be fined if they wanted to pay a fine, and in the end, the big quarrel was over, and no one planted it for several years in a row.

Zhang Cuihua was also worried after receiving this instruction, she herself didn't know how to grow this rapeseed and how to do the work of the people in the bay? And the people above are sometimes messing around, throwing everything down rudely, without even a guide, just let the people do it, and if they don't do it, then they will threaten the villagers with fines, and no one will say whether it has any effect.

Just like when Zhang Tao and their paddy fields were required to plant grass seeds in winter, they said that this thing fertilizes the field and can also improve the quality of the paddy field. Then a notice came down, how much money each family paid, how many catties of grass seeds were distributed, and the villagers were casually thrown into the paddy fields. If it doesn't grow long, no one will take care of it, and they will just complete the task.

For several days in a row, Zhang Cuihua sat at home and worried, she never thought that she would become a D member and be the captain, but Zhang Tao pushed her to this position in a daze. Then as soon as she took office, she encountered such a tricky matter, and she couldn't think of any good way, so it was strange that she was happy.

Zhang Tao tugged at the corners of his mouth, feeling that if he didn't say something, it was estimated that his mother would remain in this state for a long time, and the important thing was that it would also be a blow to her future work in the bay. It is estimated that her captain, will also be particularly troublesome, and her prestige in the bay will also be affected.

"It's not difficult to plant rape, there are less than 100 households in our village, and the task of at least two acres of land for a family is only 20 acres, and our family's seven acres of paddy fields, plus the old captain's family and the Mancheng family are almost enough, and then just do the work of a few families."

"It's very easy for you to say, I don't know what this rape is for, let alone how to grow it, how do you let others grow this thing?" Zhang Cuihua was not happy after listening to her son's words, and replied angrily. "Wait, you said our paddy field can grow rape?"

"Ugh." Zhang Tao was choked for a moment, and then after organizing his thoughts in his heart, he said: "I could have planted in the paddy field." It is good to find a small dry soil in the seedling stage of rapeseed, and its growth period is just during the period when the rice field is fallow in winter. ”

"At this time, all the paddy fields are dry, and a few drainage ditches are dug directly. Then dig a small pit evenly in the paddy field and transplant the rape seedlings in the dry soil to plant it, and you don't even need to plough the ground. After harvesting rape in the coming year, it would be good to plant rice at that time, and there would be no delay. ”

"You won't see it in the newspapers again, will you?" After listening to her son's words, Zhang Cuihua asked suspiciously, Zhang Tao did not say anything, which was considered a tacit acquiescence. "But if you have to plant several acres of land, that's also a big job, and what will happen after the rape is harvested?"

"Isn't the rape oil squeezed after it is harvested? It's similar to pressed tea oil and peanut oil. However, there is a special machine for rape pressing, and our family can buy one when the time comes. In the future, there will be more people in the bay who grow rapeseed, and there will always be a place to squeeze oil, and it will not work to use a machine to squeeze tea oil. ”

After listening to ****** words, Zhang Tao said that their brigade has a place to squeeze tea oil, and at the beginning, it was a manpower oil press made of a big tree, and it took several laborers to use it. Later, it was much more convenient to change to a machine, but there is a difference between mustard oil and tea oil.

The machine for mustarding rapeseed oil is much smaller than that, and it is not as troublesome as squeezing tea oil, and it is necessary to burn firewood and prepare straw to make tea. It's good to crush and press directly, and the speed is very fast. This kind of thing was very popular in Zhang Tao's previous life, and a few years later, it was very popular with them.

At that time, the villagers in their entire village did not need to be mobilized, and actively planted a large number of rapeseeds, just to be able to squeeze a few catties of oil a year.

Compared with the camellia in the mountains, which completely depends on the sky for food, it is much more secure to grow rapeseed in the paddy fields. As long as it is well cared for, it is easy to get more than 100 catties of vegetable oil a year. Zhang Tao was very familiar with how to grow rape because he often helped his family with farm work at that time, so he said it first.

"These things are also written in the newspaper that we ordered at home, but the cadres in our village and township are not people who are in charge of personnel. It is complete nonsense to let the people do such a big thing without doing any work. At least we should publicize what this rape is used for and how to grow it, right? ”

After telling his mother how to grow rape, Zhang Tao couldn't help but complain, Zhang Cuihua has a deep understanding of this, she still belongs to the cadres now, and still thinks that those guys are very unreliable. But at this time, she couldn't take care of this anymore, and after listening to Zhang Tao's words, her mind immediately became active.

After thinking about it for a while, she picked up the flashlight at home and went to the village, Zhang Tao knew that she should have discussed with the old captain, so she didn't say much, and started her homework with peace of mind. He believed that his mother would definitely be able to handle this kind of thing, and there was nothing to worry about.

At this time, the homework is fine, just copy the text paragraphs and other paragraphs that the teacher said a few times, and then do a few exercises and make up a few sentences to write a diary. Compared with those children in later generations, doing homework requires the whole family to go out to check information on the Internet or something, which is really.

However, fourth-grade students already need to keep a diary, and for Zhang Tao, this kind of thing is too simple, and he can write hundreds of words casually. But for the rest of the class, it's a headache, and the most annoying thing at this time is to write a diary, and I have to write every day, so there are so many things to write?

So their diaries are basically written back and forth about a few things, today on the way to school to pick up a penny, tomorrow whose pig or cow eats someone else's crop, they immediately drive the pig and cow away, or what I feed the chickens today, and then a month a reincarnation, write the previous one again.

Moreover, there are more than 30 students in the class, and at least more than 20 students have the same diary. Zhang Tao: When their Chinese teacher checked the students' diaries, they were laughed at every time: "It seems that there are so many little Lei Feng in our class, but we really have money to pick up every day on the road to school?" Crops are eaten by sex animals every day? How much money have to be lost this year, how many crops have been lost. ”

A few days later, I didn't know how my mother did the work of the team members, but more than a dozen families in their village agreed to plant rape together, adding up to fifty or sixty acres of land, which greatly exceeded the amount allocated to each production team in the village.

However, these people also have concerns, the rape seeds are kept by Zhang Tao's family, and they can just take the seedlings to plant them when the time comes. Zhang Tao's mother agreed to this condition without thinking about it, it is already very good that other people's families can cooperate with their work, and what is the loss point of their own family.

However, the corners of Zhang Tao's mouth pulled up after hearing this result, who said that the peasants in the countryside are not smart, this calculation is very good. After the rice is harvested, the farmers will not have much to do, and they will spend some time digging a few drainage ditches in the paddy fields and digging a few small pits to plant rape seedlings, which will not take long.

A few acres of land can be done in a few days, and it doesn't take long to fertilize in the middle. At that time, even if the rape harvest fails, they will not lose anything, and they will not occupy their own dry land, anyway, the rape seedlings are raised by Zhang Tao's family, and it is estimated that they will be reluctant to give the seed money at that time.

After getting the rapeseed share, Zhang Tao's mother was much more comfortable, so she went to the brigade early to get the rapeseed back, and also advanced the seed money by herself, and then found a piece of dry soil by the reservoir and sowed the rapeseed seed. This is similar to growing radish and cabbage at home, there are not too many requirements, and the fertilizer is enough to keep up with the moisture.
