Chapter 114: Extensive Planting (1)
Li Xin thought about it seriously, anyway, there are still a lot of sweet potato vines at home, so there is nothing to send some out.
Because many families have paddy fields and dry land. This season is generally rice planting, paddy fields can naturally grow rice, but dry land can not grow rice. And there are not many things that can be grown on dry land, and the yield is not high. Some families only want to grow sweet potatoes on dry land, and rice is still planted in paddy fields, which will not affect the yield of rice.
Since it won't affect the yield of grain, there's nothing wrong with letting everyone grow sweet potatoes.
Since people from several villages came, Li Xin also asked people to invite the village chiefs of those villages.
She asked several village chiefs to roughly count the families who wanted to plant and the area they wanted to plant. However, she also made it clear to the village chiefs that she could only give as many sweet potato vines as she could, after all, she gave some to the villages, and if the other villages had so much area to plant, the sweet potato vines were really not enough.
However, she also said that those sweet potato vines are delivered, and no money is charged, at most it is enough to give some money to pull the cart. It's all neighbors, after all, they all belong to a town, and even if the sweet potatoes are planted first, she can't accept other people's money.
If she can change everyone's life because of this, then she will be really happy.
Two days later, the Zhang family said that they would start planting sweet potatoes, and Li Xin asked the Zhang family to go to the back vegetable garden to cut them. This side is relatively close, you can cut as much as you can plant in a day, and the sweet potato vines are fresh. Let's cut this side off first! If the one here is not enough for the Zhang family, let Zhu Yong go to Zhuangzi to pull some over.
When Li Xin was fine, he walked around the village. The wheat in the fields has been harvested, and many families have already packed their fields and are waiting for the next season to be planted. Speaking of which, there are many families who want to plant sweet potatoes this year, and many people have wasted a lot of seedlings.
The seedlings that should have been planted have been planted, and the field has a slight green color.
After walking around, Li Xin went to his watermelon field to take a look. There are not many watermelons in the field, and the vines are a little yellow. It seems that it is time to harvest all the watermelons and vacate the fields. There are not a few watermelons left, and it is a waste to always occupy the fields.
She took a closer look, and almost all the watermelons were already ripe, after all, had they all reached this time, and everything that should be ripe should have been ripe. There are also some crooked melons and cracked dates, and it is useless to keep them. After walking around, she went back. In the next two days, she had all the ripe watermelons harvested.
Although it doesn't look like much, it's just a few acres of land! I still collected a lot of watermelons. Li Xin asked people to send some everywhere, some from the people in the village, and then a lot from the shopkeeper Sun in the town. and the Zheng family in the county town also sent some, and then sent some to everyone in Zhuangzi.
There are still some left, Li Xin asked people to put them in the cellar, and the watermelons are well stored in the cellar, and they can still be kept for many days. There are still some left, which is enough for the family to eat until the weather gets cold.
The watermelons were harvested, and the next thing was to clean up the eight acres of fields. Although there is a Zhuangzi in the family now, eight acres of land is nothing. But! It's still eight acres of land in the end! If you manage it well, you still have to have a lot of output, so naturally it will be wasted like this. It's good to clean up the fields and plant corn.
Last year, there were few corn seeds, and the family was not willing to eat them properly! Now that I think about it, I really miss the taste of green corn! If you plant it early, it won't take long for you to eat green corn. This year, there are more varieties, so that the family can eat well. It's not good if there are few people who plant, and if they are planted everywhere, it's not like you can eat as much as you want.
Or should we spread the word as much as possible, so that everyone can plant some of everything. If you grow it yourself, you can eat it outside, and you can eat it as you like. You don't have to think about keeping seeds for everything like last year, and you don't have to give up to eat anything. Wen Hao always looked at her pitifully, but she didn't relent.
After all, there are not many seeds, if she really eats them casually, where will she find seeds in the future!
After the watermelon vines were pulled, Li Xin asked people to clean up the acres of fields. Before her family's fields were cleaned up, the village chief also said that the fields that the people in the village should have sorted out, and then they had to hurry up and plant sweet potatoes. Li Xin went to the shopkeeper Sun to borrow some big cars, and went to Zhuangzi with Zhu Yong to transport sweet potatoes and vines.
If Zhu Yong goes to transport alone, it is still too slow. Planting! Naturally, the sooner the better, and the bad is always dragged. There is a lot of strength in people, and it is naturally best to be able to run it out quickly. When the sweet potato vines were transported to Osmanthus Village, Li Xin asked people to send them directly to the village chief's house, and the next ones, the village chief would naturally distribute them himself, so she didn't have to worry about it.
"Sister, will our village be able to grow a lot of sweet potatoes this year?" Yueting looked at the sweet potato vines transported by taxi and was very happy. I harvested a lot of sweet potatoes last year, and there is no shortage of sweet potatoes to eat at home this year. A few children are used to eating, and they really think it's delicious. After a while, a few children will have a meal of sweet potatoes.
Since there are still sweet potatoes in the house, Li Xin will not refuse a few children to eat them. Moreover, eating more sweet potatoes is actually good for the body.
"Yes! There are so many sweet potato vines, and this year, our village will definitely harvest a lot of sweet potatoes. Li Xin smiled and rubbed Yueting's head. This girl is very cute, how to look at how to attract people! Now, their family has reconnected with the people in the village, Li Xin has always been more generous, and if he has something at home, he will send some to the people in the village.
Nowadays, there are more people who are good friends with their family, and when a few children go out to play, they can also have a lot of companions. In the days when she lived in the village, Yueting was very happy, she went to play everywhere every day, and she could always bring a lot of children. Although she was young, she looked like a child's head.
Seeing that Yueting is having fun every day, Li Xin is also very new. As long as the children find it fun and happy, that's fine. Niuniu and Yuexiang always like to play with Yueting, and now, there are servants in the house, and Yuexiang doesn't have to help the family do anything, compared to before, it is more idle
