Chapter 13 Building a Duck Shed

Zhang Niu, who stewed rabbit meat at night, was addicted

With a round belly. Take King Kong and go back to the hut at the foot of the mountain. Zhang Niu felt like a devil going down the mountain to sweep away, drinking and eating. It's best to grab a flower girl and go back.

Return to the cottage on the side of the mountain. Didn't come back for two days. The table was already covered with a layer of fine ash. With a light blow, the sky is full of dust. Zhang Niu, who had no choice, had to exercise after meals.

As the saying goes, if you move after a meal, you will live a long life. That's quite true. At least it's not bad for Zhang Niu. Fetch water to wipe the table or something. I was busy for a while before I finished work. "Little Dot" and "King Kong" returned to the territory very early to rest. He was the only one left fighting the dust.

After some activities, since the family had not dug a well, I had to run to the pond and wash it casually. Go back to bed with all your body comfortable, fall back to bed, and fall asleep.

The weather in September is still early and fast. Sparrows in the trees or something. The chirp scum is so lively.

Today, Zhang Niu is going to build a water shed for the ducklings. The first half is covered on the 6th floor and the second half is covered on the water, so that in the winter, the ducks can sleep on the 6th side at night and on the water side in the summer. It is also convenient to clean duck manure, and you can directly buy a small pumping machine and add a few meters of pipe, and you can clean it frequently.

Driving the bottom pile, Zhang Niu wants to use the pine trees on the mountain, which are strong and durable. After all, they all have to be hit in the water. Perishable. Everything else uses 30 bamboos on the mountain, and 100 catties can be used to buy some points, he is not going to build a very large one, and he can close more than a thousand points. Too much too hot and less in winter.

Run to the village in the afternoon. I was introduced to Uncle Wang's house. Said he wanted to buy some bamboo and go back. Uncle Wang agreed without saying a word. In the end, I bought a thousand catties at a price of 28100. He just wanted to go to the mountains to cut bamboo, and the children of Uncle Wang's family were all out of the house. Not at home. The matter of cutting the bamboo can only be cut by Zhang Niu himself. It's still early. Uncle Huang took Zhang Niu to the place where the bamboo was planted to recognize the way. And pointed out the range of moso bamboo, the whole piece of moso bamboo on the mountain is connected together, no one explained. It's really hard to recognize.

After knowing the location of the bamboo, I hit the pitch. It's getting late. It can only be cut tomorrow.

Early on, Zhang Niu went to Maozhudi, as well as Xiaobudian and King Kong, and now there is a fixed team when he goes out.

The moso bamboo in the mountains is generally some old moso bamboo. There are very few newly pumped bamboos, and every spring and winter, bamboo shoots arch out of the ground in the bamboo forests. Skilled hands with good eyesight can conclude that there are bamboo shoots underneath just by the slightest crack. At these two times, many people will go to Maozhu Mountain. Look for bamboo shoots. Bamboo shoots, especially winter shoots, are the most expensive, and the price of spring shoots is average. There are many in the mountains, and the price has fallen like this, and it is worthless.

When the winter bamboo shoots were first released in large quantities, many second-hand dealers entered the village to buy fresh bamboo shoots, leaving only a few of their own houses. The basics will be sold. There are also people who do not sell but use it themselves to make dried bamboo shoots, or castrate bamboo shoots. If the weather is good, you can eat dried bamboo shoots during the New Year, which is usually cooked together with bamboo shoots and old ducks. The taste is not generally good.

Uncle Huang's moso bamboo is particularly tall and tall. , without branching. Pen to the top. The bigger the bamboo, the better, and generally the older the better. Very recognizable. You can see it at a glance. Zhang Niu specifically attacked the old bamboo, and the bamboos fell down one by one. Cut off the forks at the back, and the tip, so that you can get a bamboo.

It was so busy until noon. Then carry it from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. They dragged Zhang Niu to Zhang Niu on a tricycle, which also cost Zhang Niu a lot of RmB and called out his heartache.

The freshly cut bamboos are piled up in the open space in front of the courtyard, and the bamboos are cut down and dried for a few days to remove the water. But after a few days, it was loosened again, which is the problem of water in the bamboo......

After a day's rest, Zhang Niu called his father, uncle and other relatives to help build a duck shed, dig pits and pile piles in the morning, and sawed down the bamboo according to how long and short it is. Then cut out a thin strip of bamboo of uniform size, which is used as a clamp at that time.

In the morning, three large piles were erected by the pond, and six small piles were already in the first place. After eating and drinking at noon, we continued to work. There are already shelves. The afternoon was much faster. Finally, it is covered with asphalt linoleum. And tie them with bamboo strips one by one with iron wire. A simple 6-place duck shed can be built, and the more people there are, the more power there is. But the premise is to eat and drink well. The rest of the water part will be done tomorrow.

Due to the troublesome piling of the water part, it took a lot of time, after three days of hard work. The duck shed was finally built, and the water was used for 6 purposes. Pull the wires in as well. Hang up the light bulb. Just waiting for the ducklings to check in.

That night, Zhang Niu caught all the ducks in the space. Locked up in a duck shed. For the new place, the ducklings are still more excited, walking around, quacking and quacking. Form a symphony.

Zhang Niu is not prepared to use traditional duck feed. I'm going to keep it like this, and I still have a lot of old rice at home anyway. Can be fed. During the day, in the pond, the ducks will catch some small insects, small fish or something. In the evening, they rushed back to the shed. After a few more times, as long as the lights are turned on, I will go back to the duck shed. Just a short time ago.

Finish the duckling's work. Next, Zhang Niu, prepare the things in the space. It's a bit of a shame to have such a good resource that hasn't been used. Who told him to be a little busy?

Standing in the space, I kept thinking about what I should plant. Money on hand is running out. If you don't get something new out, you're really going to run out of food.

The price of corn is now high. There should be a few more batches to be planted. The seedlings by the pond have already grown new young leaves, which is a stark contrast to the bare seedlings outside. Zhang Niu estimated in his heart that it would not be long before these fruit seedlings would bloom and bear fruit.

There are still a lot of fish fry left in the pond, and now they all weigh a lot. It's time to start serving. But I still feel a little smaller. Maybe in half a month, it should weigh four or five pounds.

The last sweet potato vine that was planted. Now they can dig up sweet potatoes, and it is estimated that they can dig up hundreds of catties of sweet potatoes! The sweet potatoes in their own space are also considered to be precocious. The sweet potatoes in my field are not as big as my own.

People in the sweet potato village like to dig a cellar and cover it with piles of pine needles. This will allow it to be released in the following spring. Or it's easy to rot. At the beginning of spring, there are basically no sweet potatoes to be sown.

One more to. Something happened in the morning and now it's out.,I'm sorry corn shouting for recommendations and collections.
