Even if he has the consciousness and idea of making money, Xue Lang has no clue. After a few days, he hadn't even walked outside, and he didn't know any way to make money, so he could only put it aside for the time being and wait for a clue.

Brought a backpack with seeds, and as soon as he went out, he was taken by Changjian and carried-

The backpack has a certain weight, and Xue Lang originally planned to take it himself, but looking at Changjian's cautious appearance, he was afraid that he would be considered useless and disliked by Xue Lang.

Also, for the servants, having a messenger means having a future, and they will be entrusted by the master. If there is no messenger, it means that the master does not need him, there is no need for nature and there is no need to stay, and no one will raise idlers.

Xue Lang expressed his understanding, so he tried to ignore the discomfort caused by the use of child labor, and asked Changjian to carry his backpack. Changjian thought that he was used to doing work, and he didn't look hard to carry it for more than twenty catties, but he said in surprise: "Lang Jun's pocket is easy to use, and it doesn't take much effort to carry it on your back." ”

"This is called a backpack, and it's specially used to carry things."

Carrying the seeds over, in the garden, because of the large number of people, the grass and trees were basically cleared, and someone was driving cattle to turn over the soil.

Xue Lang only let them clean up half of it, and used it to grow potatoes, peanuts, and peppers, after all, there were too few of them, and it was not easy to go out to find land to plant.

The other half was only cleared of weeds, and the trees were still left, which were used to grow pumpkins, and the sweet potatoes and cabbage were to be planted in the field. Sweet potatoes can be planted about one acre, and cabbage will not be less than this area.

"Uncle Xue!"

Seeing that Xue Lang was coming, **** Liang ran over, with beads of sweat on his forehead: "The lime has been found, how to sprinkle it, please ask Uncle Xue for instructions." ”

"Don't worry, I'll take a look at the soil first."

Xue Lang shouted **** Liang to find a hoe and dug several hoes, some deep and some shallow, twisting a handful of soil from time to time, or digging a hoe-

When he first engaged in planting, Xue Lang had little capital, and he had to pay for a technician, and in order to save costs, he learned many things by himself. He just can't do manual work, and the manual work is basically hired by people, but the technical guidance has always been himself.

But all veteran or senior technicians who farm the land have the ability to distinguish whether the soil is suitable for planting without relying on things like test strips, and Xue Lang has also learned these skills from others. In order to learn this, he drank wine with others for a whole month, and he was stunned to practice the amount of wine that he could drink half a catty to eight taels, which was a real effort to get drunk.

The soil quality of this garden is okay, there are not many insect eggs or anything, and the exposure to the sun and sprinkling lime should be enough to meet the conditions for planting.

Xue Lang clapped his hands and put down the hoe: "The soil is okay, turn the soil over and expose it to the sun, you find two or three people to come out and sprinkle lime, and I will teach them how to sprinkle it." ”

"Whoa."

After a while, Liang picked three people: "Uncle Xue, this is Ah Hu, this is Ah Zhao, this is Ah Huang, these three people are the best at farming in my team." ”

Tang people call people, and they call them A on the surname, which means the cordiality of the upper and lower levels, and there are also people like Princess Pingyang who directly call Xue Lang the table character, which represents the importance and cordiality of Xue Lang.

Xue Lang smiled and wanted to shake hands, but fortunately he stopped it in time and changed it to a fist: "It's good to know how to farm, I like to be able to farm, so it's easy to understand." Come here, three, and I'll tell you. ”

The three simple men smiled innocently, and Ahu came out to reply on behalf of the three of them: "What should I do, Xue Zhubo just ordered so-and-so." ”

"Okay, refreshing! Then you're welcome, come, I'll teach you how to sprinkle lime. ”

Xue Lang called the three of them aside, squatted directly, and began to teach how to sprinkle lime with the turned soil. The three of them are worthy of being experts in farming, and Xue Lang understood as soon as he said it.

After teaching, Ah Zhao asked cautiously and respectfully: "Dare to ask Master Xue, I don't know why you want to sprinkle lime in the soil?" ”

There was nothing to hide, and Xue Lang told him cheerfully: "The purpose of sprinkling lime is very simple, that is, to kill the toxins in the soil that may cause crop disease and to kill the eggs of pests that parasitize in the soil. ”

Of course, scientifically speaking, there is also the effect of neutralizing soil acidity and alkalinity and supplementing the soil with calcium to fertilize the soil, however, in this way, it is necessary to explain what acidity and alkalinity and calcium are, and explain these two problems to people without any chemical foundation, Xue Lang felt that it was too painful, and it should be enough for them to understand the benefits of these two advantages.

After ordering these, Xue Lang called **** Liang over again: "Yuan Liang, in addition to tidying up the land, I also need a lot of grass and wood ash here, by the way, I also need a batch of shallow pots, it doesn't matter if they are broken or old, as long as they can hold water." ”

"Well, the little nephew will do it immediately."

"Don't be in such a hurry, it's not too late to go tomorrow."

"Whoa!"

Seeing that everyone was in full swing, Xue Lang was embarrassed to be too lazy, so he asked **** Liang to find what he needed, and first treat the seeds, so that the germination rate would be higher and the pests and diseases would be reduced as much as possible.

After doing all this, it was almost time for dinner. After Xue Lang's seeds moved over, **** Liang was going to bring people to garrison here.

Xue Lang can leave after doing his own thing. After saying hello to **** Liang, Xue Lang went back to listen to the wind courtyard.

Liang is a good partner, he only asks Xue Lang what he needs, never asks why he needs it, Xue Lang does whatever he wants, and never talks much. Xue Lang said he was very satisfied!

"Lang Jun, where are you going to get this dust?"

Back in Tingfeng Courtyard, as soon as he entered the inner courtyard, Mo Zhu exclaimed when he saw Xue Lang's appearance, Lamei was not surprised, but silently went to get tools to dust Xue Lang, and finished fetching water to wash. Because of the cold weather, Xue Lang loves to drink water, and there is always hot water in the kitchen.

Xue Lang actually just had a little dirt on the hem of his clothes, and he didn't do heavy work, so it wasn't dirty, but Mo Zhu made a fuss.

With the help of Mo Zhu, Xue Lang changed the soil-stained robe and said with a smile: "This is not dirty, is it?" Just a little dust, just dust it off. ”

However, seeing Mo Zhu's disapproving appearance, Xue Lang had no choice but to go with her.

After washing, dinner is served, and dinner is lamb soup and steamed buns-

"Why is it sheep soup again?"

Since crossing here, except for the days when I was lying down and couldn't move, licorice said that I couldn't get meat fishy, and only gave me some chicken soup with clean oil, and at other times, almost every ton of meat had mutton.

Mo Zhu said while setting the dishes and chopsticks: "Isn't it good to have meat to eat at every meal?" Lang Jun really won't enjoy the blessings. ”

The tone seemed a little wrong, Xue Lang raised his eyebrows, didn't say anything about her, and didn't bother to say, and he wasn't a servant of his family, he was just "seconded".

However, in the concept of the Tang people, mutton or venison and rabbit meat obtained from hunting are considered meaty, chicken is not considered meat, and few people eat pork.
