Chapter Eighty-Six: The Irrigation System (Two Changes, Various Requests)
Sent away Chen Guo!
The family had breakfast and went to the field to pick tomatoes.
The tomatoes in the field are generally ripe in the morning, and I don't know why, while the tomatoes in Tang Chendong's space are generally ripe at night.
Pick all the tomatoes and put them in a basket for every hundred! Because I couldn't pick it up in the morning and send it to the city, I only picked it today and sent it tomorrow!
Tomatoes were picked and seeds were sown on five acres of land! Today, Tang Zhenguo continued to find people to help open up the wasteland, carefully ploughing, and removing the weeds and grass roots one by one. Three acres of land have already been cleared of weeds, and two acres have to be cleared in two days. Because the tomato seedlings have to be transplanted in two days. No later than three days.
Because 1.2 million yuan belongs to the capital verification process, it cannot be used, and now there is very little cash available for Tang Chendong to use. He could only hope that the city would bring him more than 10,000 yuan of running money every day.
Fortunately, he doesn't have much money to use now.
There are five acres of iron shelves, and nearly eight acres of automatic irrigation.
That's the most important thing he needs to think about at the moment!
Irrigation scores sprinkler irrigation, flood irrigation, and point-to-point drip irrigation (or micro-irrigation). The most convenient is of course sprinkler irrigation, a sprinkler head at a certain distance, and the sprinkler head is watered in the whole plane. Basically all seedlings can be covered.
Flood irrigation is the most primitive irrigation system, and the nullah is the most important embodiment of it, which is of course the most water-intensive. Of course, it is also the most convenient and cost-effective.
Although Tang Chendong found that the space spring water seemed to be running out, it was just a seem! If the space spring ran out of water before he had established enough strength, then he would rise and decline as quickly as he could, and he could only die miserably. So, he had to conserve water.
The most efficient way to save water is, of course, drip irrigation, where each plant is equipped with a faucet. If the design is scientific, it can be turned on and off with a computer. In this way, the amount of water required for each plant is pre-designed, not a drop more, not a drop less! At the beginning, he also used point-to-point drip irrigation in principle, but the amount he used at that time may be slightly more than normal micro-irrigation.
But the cost of this drip irrigation method is relatively high!
But how high can it be? He harvests three fruits of these tomatoes every six days, that is to say, one tomato plant brings him half a fruit, which is five yuan! Even if a sprinkler costs him one tomato money, and a system costs him ten days of tomato money, he has three hundred and fifty days to generate income!
Of course, if every faucet needs to be controlled by a computer, I don't know if fifty yuan is enough! However, it is clear that this is not possible.
When he got home, he looked up information about micro-irrigation on the Internet. I found that this micro-irrigation technology is more mature than I imagined! However, the full computer control is not realized!
In general, computers really can't compare to the human brain. However, thinking about the dozens of acres or even hundreds of acres of tomato orchards in the future, it would be a dead man! Therefore, this irrigation technology must be implemented.
At present, the current micro-irrigation technology has not yet achieved the precise control of every nozzle, and Tang Chendong has no way to do this. Even if he is willing to try, it is unlikely that he will be able to achieve it.
There is no product in this area on the market. Unless there is a computer chip on each nozzle, which controls the water output, and it will automatically stop when the water output reaches the specified level!
Tang Chendong wrote down several manufacturers that produce micro sprinkler irrigation equipment, and there are agents in Ningyun City or several manufacturers in Ningyun City.
It seems that it will not be possible to do it in these two days. And these fields will need to be irrigated in two or three days!
Now for him, with the scale of expansion, many things are not very able to cover up.
For example, why didn't his tomatoes use pesticides? Why is no fertilizer used, why is farm fertilizer not used? Why are there no weeds in the field?
It's hard for him to prevaricate on the grounds that these are all new technologies from him.
In addition, as the scale grows, the demand for water will increase. If he just secretly carried water for irrigation, Tang Chendong knew that this would definitely not work. To outsiders, it seems that after these tomatoes are planted, nothing will be taken care of.
He now needs to solve a problem, that is, what will be the unpredictable result of mixing the spring water in his space with the ordinary water in nature.
He was already doing this a few days ago, and when he watered a new batch of tomatoes, he asked his parents to go to the river to fetch water, and he poured space spring water into the water in a small proportion, but the overall guarantee was that the water consumption of one acre of land was about the same as that of the space spring water that was watered by one acre of land before.
At present, this batch of tomatoes seems to be growing well, but it is far from the time of abundant fruit, so it is not yet proven!
It made Tang Chendong regret that the tomatoes that had not been watered with space spring water had already borne fruits, obviously the speed was more than twice as slow, these fruits were not yet ripe, what he needed to know was what kind of quality it would be when they were ripe!
If the ideal purpose can be achieved by mixing space spring water and ordinary water irrigation, Tang Chendong can hide people's eyes! When the time comes, he can completely say that the water is the water that he has configured himself with high-tech special effect fertilizer, blocking other people's words.
It seems that his ten acres of land can only be irrigated by hand!
After the grain was harvested and the whole piece became a plan, he could arrange the micro-irrigation equipment.
Then the only way to do this is to motivate Leng Qian'er and water his tomatoes.
If only there was a way to make the water in his space flow automatically into the tomato field! It's a pity how impossible this method seems!
Besides, everything has dried up the space, where does he get the sense of accomplishment?
If others don't know, isn't it clear to him? It seems that all the qiē he can get at the moment is brought by space, and without space, he is nothing! It is certainly impossible for him to pretend that this qiē is his own credit!
He can deceive others and make others think he is capable, but he can't deceive himself! He seems to be involved in every step of the process, from sowing tomatoes to sales, but in fact he doesn't do anything at all! Or the most critical work without his involvement!
So, he still needs to work hard!
At present, the qiē of the space is not transferred by his will, but fortunately, the qiē outside the space, he can slowly rely on the space to control.
Of course, at present, he is only passively accepting the space and does not have much active exploration, maybe one day in the future, when he knows more secrets of space, perhaps, he will control more.
