Chapter 298: Daoxiang
After lunch, Zhao Yulong rode a motorcycle to the farm.
"Laiwang, are you back? As it happens, I have something to report to you. Zhao Yulong's report was very natural. Let Laiwang feel a little fluttery.
"Hehe, what's the matter?" Laiwang asked.
"The matter of farmland subcontracting over there in Ma'an Village. More than 90 percent of the farmers in Ma'an are willing to subcontract their farmland to us. After leaving them enough vegetable plots, there are still more than 1,000 acres. The total number of our villages is only 1,000 acres. However, there are still some problems. Some of the farmers have already gone to the city, but the right to use the land is still in their hands. Normally, their fields are planted by their relatives. But now it is necessary to subcontract, and these relatives cannot be the master. There are also some people who want to leave their land as a homestead. You also know that the fields in the countryside are all east and west. Although the number of these people is small, most of the places have their land. Zhao Yulong said.
"Isn't that easy? We don't care about that. This matter must be resolved by the village of Ma'an itself. Otherwise, I can go to a village that is willing to agree to our terms. Laiwang said.
"But most people are willing. Only a tiny minority disagree. Because they don't need to grow vegetables to make money. See if you can exclude these people first and let other people who are willing to join in first. Zhao Yulong was a little ruthless, after all, his identity was now the son-in-law of the Ma Ansun family.
"But if there is a difference in the middle of the field, how do we transform the farmland? Even if the farmland is renovated, pesticides and fertilizers are used in these fields. Isn't our work in vain? Even if I agree, I can't pass the level of Fuwang Farm. Laiwang said.
"Oops. It's a really hard thing to do. Zhao Yulong frowned.
Lai Wang smiled, "Jade Dragon." I know that because of Sun Jinling, you are ruthless to Ma'an Village, but if you break the rules, you will only harm Fuwang Farm. Our signboard is easy to erect, and we must be careful when making any decision. ”
"I see." Zhao Yulong said.
"Actually, it's not impossible. You talk about these things to death. There are so many people in Ma'an Village, they will always come up with a way. So a few people can be tough on us, but can they be tough on their relatives? They went out, and the fields were naturally left unattended. If it weren't for his old family to take care of him, it would have been barren a long time ago, and the village has the right to take back the contract rights for the barren land. Laiwang said.
Zhao Yulong's eyes lit up and he smiled, "Why didn't I think of this stubble?" Okay, I'll go and spread the word to the people of Ma'an Village. Let them figure it out on their own. Otherwise, our Fuwang Farm will not take care of their affairs. ”
Lai Wang nodded, "That's right." Jade Dragon, don't leave yet. What happened to the fish in the farmland? ”
"It's ok. At first, I was a little worried that someone might steal fish with an electric fishing machine. Unexpectedly. As soon as someone comes to fish, they will immediately be chased by a pack of wild dogs. As soon as it came out, there were dozens of wild dogs. The last time I came to fish, I didn't even dare to ask for an electric fishing machine, so I fled back. Zhao Yulong said with a smile.
"It's still a little bit of a special note. Once this electric fishing machine passes, none of this saury fish will survive. By the way, is there any loss of saury? Laiwang asked.
"Nope. It's weird, this saury grows so fast. When I was a kid, we also had saury in the pond in our yard. But the saury grows very slowly, but the saury in the rice fields grows very fast. When I put it down, it was only the size of a finger, and now the largest one has almost three fingers. It's almost two. Zhao Yulong said.
"That's good. until the end of the year. There are almost three or four taels, and only the three taels of river knives can be sold at a high price. Laiwang said.
"In the spring of this year, the river knife was sold for thousands of yuan a catty, and I don't think we should be in a hurry to sell these saury fish first. Used for seeding, next year, so many river knives don't know how many eggs they can produce. Then we used all the farm to raise river knives. At that time, the output of this saury fish will be higher than that of rice. Those sturgeons grow faster. Don't know what you eat? Zhao Yulong vaguely felt that the water in this rice field was a little special. In the early days of high temperatures, the fish were most susceptible to fever or death due to lack of oxygen, but the fish raised in this paddy field did not lose anything. Never saw a dead fish in a canal or in a field. This couldn't help but surprise Zhao Yulong.
"We were lucky. Later, I'll go to the fields and have a look. Later. Yulong, how do you think you should get it right, you just make your own decision. I don't wait for the money either. I think you're talking about this swordfish very well. Chickens cannot be killed for eggs. When the saury expands next year, we will be able to break even. Lai Wang said with a smile.
This problem cannot be explained by luck.
"Speaking of which, I used to do stupid things. When he saw that the seedlings had insects, he sprayed the medicine fiercely, and as a result, all the beneficial insects and fish such as frogs and loaches in the field were killed. The biological chain in this field has been completely broken. In the end, it can only be sustained by increasing the use of pesticides. Now there are no pesticides, and the frogs in the fields are dense. There are also many loaches in the fields that bite their feet. But the seedlings hardly grow seeds, and the moths, as soon as they enter the field, are eaten by frogs before they fall on the leaves of the seedlings. At night, you can hear the croaking of frogs. Zhao Yulong sighed.
"This is natural, I used to use so many pesticides. As soon as I sprayed pesticides myself, a large number of loaches died in the field. A lot of people still go to pick it up. Smoked and sold to the town. Zhao Laiwang said with a smile.
"It's no wonder that the people in the village are of low quality. But there is really no way to make money. If you want to die like now, there is a way to make money, who wants to do that kind of immoral thing? Besides, don't the people in the village eat it themselves? Aren't the people in the village eating the rice and vegetables raised with pesticides and fertilizers? If only there was another way. Don't we want to eat something healthy? "Zhao Yulong has been very down-to-earth recently, and his understanding of the countryside has deepened a lot.
Laiwang nodded, "Hehe, you Zhao Laiwang, I used to want to go to the city and live the life of a city person, but I didn't expect to start understanding farmers now." ”
"Am I not a farmer myself? If you don't know us farmers well, can you still be considered farmers? Zhao Yulong scratched his head.
"Alright. Let's go to the fields. Lai Wang patted Zhao Yulong on the shoulder.
Zhao Yulong still rode his motorcycle, walking in front, Laiwang drove the car to follow behind, this road is really paved with stones, and when you walk, the motorcycle is faster.
"When the road in the town passes, it's time to build a concrete road here." Laiwang heart said.
This road is the main traffic artery of Laiwang. All meat and five-star greens are shipped from here. If the road is not good, the loss will be great. In the future, when the road in the town is completed, this road will become a bottleneck. However, fortunately, Laiwang's funds are now more abundant. It's really not that difficult to build a road.
In this rural area, especially on the Maoma Road here in Zhaojiatun, there are basically no other cars, so when you park, you can just park on the side of the road. Laiwang parked the car directly in the middle of the road to the intersection of the farm.
Although the millet in the rice fields is still green, it has long since bowed its head. There are large bunches of rice ears, and when the autumn harvest comes, it seems that the yield will only be higher than that of early rice. After all, the temperature difference between day and night is relatively large during the period of late rice grain filling and maturity, which is more suitable for starch storage. And it will improve the yield and quality a lot.
"Laiwang, how is this rice?" Zhao Yulong was very proud. Although he also understands that this rice can grow so well, the main reason is still in Laiwang. However, as the direct manager of the farmland, he was able to make the rice so good. Zhao Yulong felt a burst of pride in his heart.
"Not bad, not bad. Jade Dragon, you've bothered a lot. Laiwang said.
"That's what I'm supposed to do. Now the soil in this paddy field is getting more and more fertile, which is really strange, instead of applying chemical fertilizer, it is getting more and more fertile. Zhao Yulong said.
Laiwang can naturally see that what used to be yellowish suddenly has become dark now, and it looks very different from before. Such soil is suitable for the growth of rice. Rice is growing in the paddy fields, but there are still weeds. In the past, when everyone was intensively cultivating, they would always pull out the weeds by hand to prevent the weeds from competing with the rice for fertilizer. But now such a large area, and the labor cost is so expensive. Naturally, it is impossible to pull weeds by artificial methods. Many farms choose to use herbicides. But herbicides can also have an impact on rice. And as organic rice is grown, herbicides are also prohibited.
However, Laiwang found that the weeds in the field did not seem to affect the growth of the rice, and each was confined to its own range, and the growth of the rice was stronger, which restricted the growth of weeds.
"There are a lot of weeds here, but the manpower is really limited, and with such a large area, if you pull the weeds by manpower, I'm afraid it won't be able to pull out in a day or two." Zhao Yulong saw that Laiwang was always looking at the weeds, and thought that Laiwang was a little dissatisfied with too many weeds.
"I don't think this weed has any effect on the rice?" Laiwang said with a smile.
"Hmm. The impact is really not significant. In fact, weeding is not much necessary. The main reason is that we now restructure the ground once a season and bury all the topsoil to the depths. A lot of weeds just died. Zhao Yulong said.
"Whoa!"
Laiwang suddenly heard a sound of water in the rice field, opened the rice and looked inside, and immediately saw a sturgeon writhing in the shallow paddy field. It seems to be very pleasant.
"It got to be more than a pound, right?" Laiwang said.
"Well, at least a pound more." Zhao Yulong leaned over and said. (To be continued......)
