Chapter Ninety-Five: The Field of Hope

"Great! Shaolangjun is watching us transplant from the side. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Pepper and pumpkin seeds need to be transplanted, and these seedlings are particularly tender. When transplanting, it is best to bring soil with you, and you must pay attention not to hurt the seedlings, otherwise it will be difficult to survive.

However, Li Hao is a little worried, these farmers are all good at farming. As long as Li Hao tells them how to operate, they can do better than Li Hao's instructions.

In addition to pepper and pumpkin seeds, there are also corn and peanut seeds. These two crops do not need to be transplanted, just dig a pit in the place and put in the seeds, and then cover them with soil and fertilize them.

If some seeds do not germinate in the middle, just move some from the side to fill the pit. The more troublesome thing is sweet potatoes, which this good farmer has never planted, and the planting method is also very special.

On a rainy day, Li Hao and his farmer braved the rain to cut the sweet potato vines back, then cut them into sections as required, and then buried the sweet potato vines evenly on the dug land.

The next few days happened to be rainy weather, which also saved a lot of things. After a few days of planting, the sweet potato vines began to take root and survive. After a little fertilization, it can grow rapidly.

"Can you still eat these sweet potato leaves?" When cutting sweet potato vines, Li Hao picked some relatively tender sweet potato leaves, and made a new dish for a few girls, stir-fried sweet potato leaves.

This is a well-timed stir-fry, and the first and second leaders of the county who came to inspect the work also tasted it. The taste is good, and the two parents are very satisfied after eating it.

"Of course, the sweet potato leaves at this time are at their most tender. Later, these sweet potato vines could only be minced and fed to pigs, cattle and sheep, which were too old at that time. After hearing this, Li Hao explained with a smile that it was common sense in the countryside to feed pigs and cattle with sweet potato vines.

As a former rural baby, Li Hao's memory of these farming things is really good. When the sweet potato vines grow and flourish, turn the vines to prevent the vines from falling to the ground and growing small sweet potatoes and wasting fertilizer.

Liu Renliang and Cui Zhiyi saw that Li Hao attached so much importance to his seeds, and they became more and more looking forward to what Li Hao said. So far, half of Li Hao's words have basically come true, and this teenager has not lied to them.

The yield per mu is dozens of stones, thinking about this yield, the two of them can't help but be excited. If it is vigorously promoted, Datang will no longer have to worry about grain production.

It's just that if these things are really harvested, they have to wait until the summer and autumn, and the time is still early. In fact, what they didn't expect was that if there was a famine, these things would also be lost.

In addition to these, Li Hao's farm also grows a lot of rice. There is no way to do this, Li Hao was originally a southerner, and he was tired of eating pasta all the time. Now I miss the time when I could eat rice, so I let the farmers grow a lot of rice.

There are people who grow rice in the south of Chang'an, but the staple food here is not rice. Li Hao let his farmers plant some rice, which is not unusual, and they also know how to plant it.

Spring is a season of hope, after all the seeds are sown. A large number of livestock are also being bred and raised, and cattle pens, pig pens and sheep pens have been built around Li Hao's Zhuangzi.

The chicken and duck sheds and fish ponds also began to become lively, which carried Li Hao's expectations. Even in later generations, these things were a means for the peasants to get rich, and this is still the case at this time.

It's a pity that after he finished the spring planting, he had to leave Chang'an. I don't know when I went back again, and for a while, I couldn't see that my Zhuangzi's life was getting better.

"Xiao Langjun, do you really want to go over to Tanzhou?" Liu Renliang and Cui Zhiyi were very puzzled by Li Hao's departure, in their eyes, if the farmers here did not have Li Hao's care, it was estimated that the output would be much less.

Supposedly, this side should be the most important thing. If Li Er knew this, he would probably be able to send his Imperial Forest Army over to guard this Zhuangzi. But Li Hao didn't seem to care so much, and he had to travel far at this time.

"Well, I have more important things to do over there. On the banker's side, as long as you do what I say, it's not a big problem. Sweet potatoes and pumpkins are both better crops to grow, and they are more drought tolerant. When they are ripe, they are harvested, and the seeds can be saved for next year. ”

"Corn and peanuts are similar, and they don't need as much fertilizer. A little more attention should be paid to peppers, which need enough moisture and fertilizer. ”

Li glanced at the two of them, and he understood what the two were worried about. But what they don't know is that peanuts, sweet potatoes and corn are all dryland crops.

The requirements for water and land do not need to be too high, and those farmers in their own villages can plant well as long as they explain clearly. As for the tax matter, Li Hao has explained to Uncle Zhong and Da Lang, and it will not be too much, so that the life of the farmers can be better.

The important thing is that they don't need to watch the sky to eat now, unless the big river around Zhuangzi is completely dry. Otherwise, because of the existence of the cylinder car, the cultivated land of the Zhuangzi here does not have to worry about water.

As for how to use these crops in the future, Li Hao has already told the teenagers he bought. Cooking all kinds of food, and eating it as a staple food, these teenagers have seen it.

Of course, these things can also be used to feed livestock, so that staple food is not wasted, and pigs and cattle can grow faster. Li Hao is actually more worried about the breeding industry, which requires technology, and usual care is also very important.

Li Hao is worried that those farmers will not do well, especially since they used to be free-range and have not really been systematically raised. So how to breed these things, Li Hao can only write them one by one, and then put them on Zhuangzi's side.

Let them breed according to these when the time comes, and those teenagers in their own house will also come over regularly to guide these farmers according to the charter, and strive to make a professional breeder here, so as to meet the needs of their own restaurants in the future.

Li Hao, the candidate for going to the south, has also been decided, except for the dozen or so teenagers who have performed well, Li Hao will take him with him to continue to cultivate. The rest is Erlang, and he will follow. Da Lang and Uncle Zhong and Aunt Zhong want to stay in Chang'an because he is about to get married.

Niuniu and Wu Shun will also follow Li Hao to Tanzhou, and the Wu family originally had some opinions on this, after all, Wu Shun is not married yet. It's just that I didn't know how to agree later, which made Wu Shun feel a lot better during this time, and I could hear her laughter from time to time.

And the other two sisters are not so happy, after Li Hao left, no one told them stories, and got them some delicious and fun things, and the future will definitely be very boring.
