Chapter 29: Farming
Seeing off Jiang Lao and other guests, Li Jing returned to the restaurant and saw that Liu Le and Master Zhong were already waiting but had not moved their chopsticks, so he immediately beckoned: "Don't wait, hurry up and eat." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"Boss Li has earned a lot!" Master Zhong exclaimed, he heard the conversation at the door just now.
"It's okay, it's okay." Li was actually excited, but he was introverted and did not show his face.
After a full meal, Li Jing still had to pack up the tableware, but he really didn't have time to greet them, so he ordered money and handed it to Master Zhong and said: "102 acres of land, a total of 12,240, just hand it over to you, and you can help me fight the remaining 20 acres of land tomorrow morning." β
Master Zhong clicked it, got up and said, "Okay." β
When I went out, I glanced at the pool a few times, and slowed down, but I could only shake my head secretly when I thought of the expensive price. He had the money, but he was really reluctant to spend it, it was too expensive, although he really wanted to bring some back to his family to taste
Li Jing was accompanying Liu Le out to fish, and when he noticed Master Zhong's expression, he stopped and said, "Master Zhong, wait, bring some river shrimp and yellow spicy dices back!" β
"This ...... What's so embarrassing about that? Master Zhong rubbed his hands movingly, but after all, it was too expensive, and he was a little embarrassed to accept it.
"It's not worth a few dollars, take some back and give it to your family to taste." Li Jing fished two catties of river shrimp and some yellow bone fish, and stuffed them to Master Zhong. One is the mind, the other is to develop customers, although Master Zhong is thrifty, but he definitely has the conditions to consume. Today, after removing the cost of oil and the wear and tear of the machine, Master Zhong also has an income of six or seven thousand.
"Thank you, thank you." Master Zhong was grateful.
After sending Master Zhong away, Li Jing began to fish for Liu Le, ten river shrimp, five one-pound yellow spicy dice, two yellow eels, and two big carp.
"Not so much!" Liu Le exclaimed, such a thing is already worth thousands of yuan.
"Don't refuse, this is what you deserve, without your help, I won't be able to earn a dollar today." Li Jing Zhengse. He is very satisfied with Liu Le's cooking skills, the farm is short of a chef, and now he also has the capital to operate, and the plan to hire him as a chef is about to be put on the agenda.
Liu Le also guessed some of Li Jing's thoughts, after all, the restaurant of the farm had been started by mistake, but there was not even a cook, this was definitely not good, Li Jing obviously hit him with his idea.
"Okay! Thank you very much. Liu Le accepted this gift, and when he encounters good things, he is always used to sharing them with family and friends, which seems to be human nature, and he is no exception.
The guests were sent away, but Li Jing's busy work had just begun, and it was not easy to wash the greasy dishes on the two large tables.
Qiu Ping 10900; Wednesday 14000; Jiang Lao 10000; other 15000; A total of 49900. β
"Pay Master Zhong 12240, 37660 left."
"It's a good harvest." After washing, Li Jing lay on the bed and counted today's harvest, his mouth open and couldn't be closed. But thinking that there was still a lot of work to do tomorrow morning, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
At dawn, Li Jing got up from the bed, took the flashlight and put it away.
After the cage was collected yesterday morning, he threw the cage back into the river, but he didn't put earthworms in it. After a whole day and a night, it is estimated that there will be a harvest. Some fish and shrimp will instinctively burrow into the burrow, and even if the ground cage does not put bait, there is a possibility of harvest.
As expected, after a whole day of placement, the harvest was more abundant this morning, and all ten ground cages burst into cages!
It's just that the fish situation is different from yesterday, the yellow eel is not this time, and the number of miscellaneous turtles has also decreased, and there are a few of them, but the river shrimp burst the cage! Yellow spicy Ding bursts the cage! They are all burrowing animals, and the overall harvest so far is even more than yesterday!
Having learned the lesson of the last time, this time Li Jing did not only select the big ones to put into the fish pond, but left the large and small ones, and the others were directly put into the reservoir, a full twelve large barrels, and the reservoir was a lot more lively for a while.
After collecting the ground cage, Li Jing repeated his old trick, put the empty ground cage back into the river without putting bait, and came to collect it again tomorrow morning.
"I almost forgot to buy water!"
Today was the first day of planting big trees and rice, and Li Jing was very excited, thinking that the drinking water had not yet been prepared, he immediately drove to the town to buy it. As a result, it was still early, and most of the shops had not yet opened, so I ran several streets in a row to bring back two pieces of mineral water.
Not only that, but without waiting for the workers to arrive, he personally carried the saplings to the edge of the field, but he did not feel tired at all, and the big tree rice gave him too much hope.
Uncle Chen was the first to come, mainly inquiring about the content of the work, and happened to bump into Li Jing moving the saplings to the field, and said with a smile: "When they come, you can pull it down with a trolley, you don't have to move it yourself." β
"It's okay, it's all done." Li Jing didn't care at all.
Before eight o'clock, other villagers also came one after another and were taken to the ridge by Uncle Chen. There are men and women in this group, the younger ones are in their forties, and the eldest is nearly seventy years old, fortunately, they have a tough physique, otherwise Li Jing would not be able to let the old man go to the field.
The people have arrived, but they don't know anything about today's work, especially when they see the rice tree seedlings, they are even more confused, and they talk about it in private.
"I heard that this is rice on the trees."
"Rice in the trees? Then how to harvest, you can't climb up! β
"Unreliable!"
"The boss of the contract came and lost a batch, and he went away again and again, did he plant anything? Don't make a fuss. β
The simplicity and directness of these villagers somewhat embarrassed Li Jing, you have to pay attention to your chatter! But knowing that they had no ill intentions, it was good that he didn't hear it, and then slapped his palms vigorously to attract their attention, and said loudly: "Come here, everyone, I will teach you how to plant rice in big trees." β
"The seedlings are gently inserted into the ground with your hands, being careful not to hurt them, just like when they were planted in the field."
"The row spacing is two meters, and the spacing is one meter eight! It is the length of these sticks, we first use the sticks to measure the surrounding area, and then visually measure the horizontal and vertical distance and plug in the middle. β
"It is not required to be absolutely accurate, but please try to keep an approximate distance."
Not only talking, but also teaching by word and deed, personally walking down the mud to the knee-high paddy field to teach the cultivation skills of large tree rice, and various precautions.
The planting of big tree rice does not require much skill, the biggest requirement is the row spacing, narrow to affect the later growth, wide in the early stage and low yield, 1.8 * 2 is the golden distance of big tree rice.
One acre of land is not small, if it is ordinary rice, one person cannot complete the planting of seedlings in half a day. However, the distance between big trees and rice is relaxed, and there are only about 200 plants per acre of land, and three people can cooperate in a piece of land, which can be completed in more than half an hour per acre, and most of the energy is spent on measuring the spacing around them.
According to this efficiency, it will take less than three days to plant all the 100 acres of rice trees.
Li Jing saw that he was getting better, so he asked Uncle Chen to advise: "Uncle Chen, the saplings are not enough, I want to find some, you can help me look at them." β
"Go with confidence! I'm looking at this, and I won't mistake you. Uncle Chen said and squeaked the hookah again.
As long as you are the laziest, it is strange that he is relieved...... But Li Jing didn't dare to say this, and he was probably beaten. But it is imminent to replenish the saplings, and there is no way for them to be lazy.
