If you have money, you should spend it, especially after being poor for a long time, Sun Xiangfu no longer has to wear like a beggar, at least, he now has a few robes made of silk cloth, and there is also a squire identity equivalent to the head of Xiaoheji, and even those merchants on the set began to compliment him when they saw him, this is the benefit of being rich and powerful, no, it should be the benefit of spending money to him.

After walking around, Sun Xiangfu spent twenty yuan in Xiaoheji, bought more than a dozen stones of grain, and a few stones of soybeans, this is his relatively normal expenditure, the most frightening thing is his harvest, his family's fish and goods are all pulled by boats, 1,000 catties per boat, how much is this worth? When the whole village of Xingfu Village began to make fish cages, it only took a few days for the total number of fish cages to exceed 1,000.

Now, every round of fish cages, you can get more than 2,000 catties of fish of all colors, two rounds a day, that is, three or four thousand catties, the whole village can not finish eating the cheeks, Sun Xiangfu had to stop the production of fish cages, let everyone dig a pond in the bamboo forest, and all the yellow eel loaches that are caught back are raised, yes, they are not sold, all are cultivated, except for dozens of catties of fish sent to Qinfu every day.

"Xiangfu, are there too many ponds we dig, there are more than a hundred, and the children can't dig earthworms."

The pond of eel loach should not be too big, it is very good in the shade of the bamboo clearing, and the area of Xingfu Village is a dirt mountain bag with a radius of several hundred meters, and now, half of the place has been dug into an eel loach pond.

"Then chop up the scaly fish that can't be eaten and feed it to the eels, and on the loach side, you can grind some bellflower into foam, throw a few bundles of rotten grass in each pond, and only feed a small amount of fish and offal, by the way, Master Ma's new plough has also been made, except for the morning and evening fishing time, call everyone to gather in the barren field, I want to take advantage of these two days to open the remaining more than 2,000 acres of land, and plant a season of summer beans."

It's already the beginning of July, and if you don't plant any more, those fields will be really barren this year.

"In two days, open more than 2,000 acres of wasteland? Why can't I resist questioning you again? Sun Dali couldn't accept it.

"That's right, if you've seen the plough I designed, you know it's not impossible."

The next morning, the sun was blazing, but Sun Xiangfu had to work against the sun, and now it was the last cultivation period, and ten buffaloes were reluctantly driven to the edge of the wasteland.

That's right, it is a curved plow, and it is a big curved plough with four plowshares, the plow is made of fine iron by Marin, the cold light is shining, with the wave of the whip in Sun Xiangfu's hand, two oxen in a group, five four-plough Quyuan ploughs are pulled by these ploughing oxen in the field.

"This, how do I feel that this land is so brittle, the ox pulls the four-head plough and walks, it is as fast as when it is not pulled, my God, these five roads go down, it is directly the five-compartment field, to the end, fifty acres."

All the farmers in the village who have cultivated for generations are stupid, a single plough plough is twice as fast as the original triangular plow, four, is eight times, five groups, is forty times, when the efficiency is magnified forty times, this wasteland of more than 2,000 acres is turning into fertile land at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At the end, fifty acres, walking back, another fifty acres, back and forth, in less than two days, more than 2,000 acres of land were all cultivated, more than 100 people, under the leadership of Sun Xiangfu, began to sow seeds, and several stones of soybean seeds were all sown into the field.

"I feel that our village will never have to worry about food in the future. Moreover, as the village chief said, he can eat meat every day, whether it is fish, pork, or mutton. Villager Wang Erxiao raised his head and said happily.

"Well, in the future, we should worry about what to do if the meat that can't be eaten stinks." Villager Zhang Dashu said happily.

"You two boys, don't daydream, we're still far from eating meat! At least, before the two major projects in the village are completed. Sun Dali interrupted the conversation between the two of them inappropriately.

"Two major projects? What are the two major projects? The two looked at Sun Dali together.

"It's the village house, and the village fishing ground, and the village chief said that it will all be done before the end of the month."

Soon, the happy village started the two major projects that Sun Dali said, the so-called public house, that is, the public use of the house, the original is not nothing, but the scale is too small, only two small warehouses, a cowshed, and Sun Xiangfu needs is a house that can put the whole village people in, wide, and complete production and living facilities, so the people of the whole village began to get busy.

Under the assignment of Sun Xiangfu, the whole village spent a daytime to get down the corners of the wall, and even dug all the houses and courtyards, which were more than 3,000 square meters.

Then the two brothers Wang Fu and Wang Gui led more than a dozen people to take charge of the timber affairs, mainly to make tripods and house beams.

Ma Lin and Zhang Quan took the rest of the people to be responsible for burning bricks and tiles, these things were burning when they burned charcoal before, and there are already a lot of hoarding.

When all the materials are done, it is already three days later, it is not difficult to use clay to build bricks, the difficulty is to meet Sun Xiangfu's production standards, such as the horizontal line, many villagers do not understand what this thing is for, and he also requires the villagers to lay bricks in accordance with different horizontal and vertical stacking methods, not with horizontal stacking on the line, so that all bricks are required to be the same size, and those bricks that are unqualified will be used to pave the ground in the end.

These things are not difficult to learn, but in just two days, more than 100 people will leave all the brick walls with window holes, and then the tripod on the wall, the main beam on the top, cover the tiles, in the eyes of the villagers, this house in addition to the doors and windows, even if it is built.

But in Sun Xiangfu's view, it is far from enough, when the two brothers Wang Fu and Wang Gui built doors and windows according to Sun Xiangfu's design, Sun Xiangfu came to the cave again, and after two days of tinkering, he finally burned some white lime, and let people use a bamboo scraper to paint the entire exterior wall of the house, which can prevent ants and crawlers.

At the end of July, including the long wooden table and bench required by Sun Xiangfu, all of them were built, and the whole public house was completed, and the public house had a courtyard of 1,000 square meters, and the house covered an area of about 2,000 square meters, including a hall of more than 500 square meters, and dozens of long benches in the hall, and long wooden tables, and there was a large shrine platform in the center, which enshrined the spirit cards of the dead people in the whole village, because only Sun Xiangfu was literate in the village, so these spirit cards were written by him.

To the left and right of the hall are the blacksmith's room, the carpenter's room, the kitchen, and two grain storehouses. Each room has more than 200 square meters, and then there are two miscellaneous warehouses in the corner of the courtyard wall, a long strip of livestock sheds, and a long strip of firewood and grass houses, all the ground is tightly paved with green bricks, coupled with snow-white walls, it looks very clean, and everyone in the future is basically concentrated in the commune except for sleeping, eating and working.

Of course, after doing this, everyone must not stop, the fishing ground is not the small holes and ponds dug by the villagers in the bamboo forest, Sun Xiangfu had an idea when he first passed the two firewood mountains in the village.

Two Chai Mountains are in the shape of eight and together, in the middle is a canyon, Chai Mountain is not very tall, only when the rain is strong, there will be a small stream flowing down from the canyon, into the small river, if a long embankment is built on the two feet of the Chai Mountain figure-eight to block it, then the whole canyon will become a triangular reservoir with an area of more than 1,000 acres, such a scale is enough to breed thousands of catties of fish salvaged from Happy Village every day.

If you have an idea, you have to put it into practice, set fire to burn the weeds in the canyon clean, and clean up all the carnivores such as turtles and black fish in the small stream, the villagers began to level the land, clean up the rubble, and build a dam with those things that have been cleared, but this embankment does not need to be too high, because there is not much water coming down from Chai Mountain, and it cannot fill the entire canyon in a hundred years, so the embankment only needs to be two or three meters high at first, and more than 100 people can build 100 meters in a day, and after a few days, the embankment is all built.

Several Wang Fu Wang Gui according to Sun Xiangfu designed the pedal water dragon car was erected on the embankment, the children played happily on the water wheel, the water in the small river was constantly swept into the reservoir by the water wheel, two or three days, during which there were several heavy rains, in August, the happy village hoarded many days of fish fry can finally be launched.

"Village chief, why do we only put these three kinds of fish in our fishing grounds?" Shi Dalang was appointed by Sun Xiangfu as the manager of the fishing ground, and more than a dozen and a half children in the village will take care of the fishery under his leadership.

"Crucian carp, carp, grass carp are strong fecundity, strong survivability, and not picky fish species, and these three kinds of fish grow fast, although the crucian carp grows to more than a pound a year, but he can become hundreds of thousands, and nourishing, pregnant women must eat, in the middle of winter can be sold at a high price.

Carp can grow to three or four catties a year, he can also breed a lot, grass carp, it is more powerful, although its food is large, reproduction is not as good as crucian carp and carp, but a year can grow to more than five or six catties, two years can grow to more than a dozen catties, and even a few more years, it has no growth limit, it is possible to grow to dozens of more than 100 catties, we only need to put fish fry in the first year, it will be a continuous source of energy, and it has been harvested.

As for others like silver carp, it needs living water, in the reservoir, its cost performance is not as good as these three kinds of fish, although the price of black fish is slightly higher, but as long as there are more black fish in the pond, there will be no other fish species in this pond in the future, because it is a carnivorous fish. There are also Huanggu, whitebait and the like, which can't grow much meat in a year, it belongs to chicken ribs, and the white scales grow fast enough, but the fishy smell is big, the price is cheap, and it is almost the same to feed the yellow eel. ”
