No matter how much he was worried, Father Ye still rode a donkey to Zhuangzi outside the city on the second day.

It's just that this time Daddy Ye didn't get his wish to live in Zhuangzi for a few days.

Father Ye was busy when he arrived in Zhuangzi.

Although Qingzhou Mansion can not be regarded as the extreme north, generally in the middle of October also has to enter winter, whether the grapes can be cut at this time depends on the time of the month and a half before the winter, so we must seize the time to prepare the land, as soon as possible to cut the grape branches into the soil.

What kind of land is needed for cuttings, Daddy Ye still knows in his heart.

When he arrived in Zhuangzi, he first asked Qi Gui to find Qi Anhe, and he sat down and drank a bowl of water.

When Qi Anhe came, he first handed over the things that the Yang family entrusted him to bring, and made sure that Qi Anhe had no important arrangements today, so he simply let him follow him and Qi Gui all the way to the small hill.

He first had to find a piece of land for cuttings that was flat, loose, sunny, and far from the water source.

Now the most important thing is the cultivation of grape seedlings, and only by cultivating more grape seedlings can we talk about expanding the cultivation of grapes.

A few days ago, before Qi Anhe came back from Hongfeng Village, Father Ye had talked with Qi An about the plan to reclaim the hill for planting grapes, and told him that he had time to find out the bottom of the hill.

These days, Qi Anhe has really pondered this hill up and down, and he has a considerable understanding of this hill.

Where can be reclaimed, where to reclaim is also in vain, Qi Anhe already has an account in his heart.

It's just that the land that Daddy Ye proposed to find was flat, loose, sunny, and had a water source, which really stumped Qi Anhe.

If you are looking for a flat terrain, loose soil, and sunny land, there is really such land on the mountain, but there is really no water source on the mountain.

Seeing Qi Anhe shaking his head, although Father Ye was a little disappointed in his heart, he had already had such a realization, how could he expect that this place would be as lucky as Hongfeng Village, and he could dig a spring in the mountain casually!

Since there is no such land in the mountains, we can only look for suitable ones in the limited wasteland at the foot of the mountain.

So the three of them turned around to the sunny places at the foot of the mountain, and stopped from time to time to dig a few hoes, and when they went down with a hoe, they would dig a few more times when they found that the soil was good.

Although there are a few places where I feel good when I first dig up, there are always some shortcomings when I really dig up.

The three of them went round and round at the foot of the hill and dug and dug and dug again, and an hour later they stopped at the pond at the foot of the hill.

Not far from the pond there is a piece of land that is only about two points long, and because it is a sandy area, no one wants to use it to grow something even if it is close to the pond.

Father Ye didn't like this land very much, but this was already the most suitable piece of land that could be found, otherwise he would have to collect the land from the tenants and come back to make grape cuttings and multiplication land.

"Uncle, can you use this land with more sand than soil?" Qi Anhe dug the ground twice with the hoe in his hand, squatted down and grabbed a handful of sand and soil in his hand, raised his head and looked at Father Ye worriedly.

Father Ye also grabbed a handful of sand in his heart, this place is really more sand than soil.

Fortunately, this is not a big problem, and the soil can be transported from other places to improve the proportion of sandy soil here, and the fertilization is carried out together, and this land basically meets the requirements of cuttings.

Daddy Ye is most worried that this piece of land is too close to the pond, and he is afraid that the water will come out when it is turned deeply, and it will not be used at all.

Father Ye spat into the palm of his hand, wielded his hoe and dug up the ground.

Seeing that Daddy Ye was digging directly into the depths of the pond closest to the pond, Qi Anhe and Qi Gui glanced at each other, and they both understood what Daddy Ye meant, so they hurriedly went over and dug together.

The three of them quickly dug a pit nearly two feet deep, and to Father Ye's delight, not only did he not have the water seepage problem he was worried about, but when they dug about one and a half feet, they actually dug up the black soil!

If this is the case in both areas, where it is necessary to dig from other places to improve the proportion of sand, it can be solved by turning deeply.

If it weren't for the five-year-old grandson sent by Qi Gui's family to come over and call them back for dinner, I am afraid that these three people would immediately go and lead the oxen and carry the plough to turn over the land.

After having lunch in a hurry, Qi Anhe suggested that Father Ye go to take a nap first, after all, he was not too young, and he had not rested since he came to Zhuangzi from Hongfeng Village.

Besides, the land was only two centimeters, and there was an ox plough in the village, and he could turn the ground up and level it alone.

Where is Daddy Ye willing to rest, he can't wait to see if that piece of land can bring him real surprises.

Qi Anhe and Qi Guijian persuaded Father Ye to let him go.

The three of them led the oxen and carried the plough to the field, and Qi Anhe was the youngest and strongest of the three, so naturally he would plow the land.

Qi Anhe ploughed from the farthest place from the pond, and the soil turned out after plowing did not have black soil as Ye Lao's father expected, but the ratio of sand to soil was okay.

Seeing that the black soil was not turned out, Qi Anhe specially pressed the plow deep, but unfortunately it was still not black soil, and the three of them couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Qi Gui asked Father Ye to rest on the side, while he himself followed Qi An and behind him to break the clods of soil that had been turned out with a hoe.

Of course, Father Ye would not argue with Qi Gui, he lit a bag of cigarettes and squatted on the ground to smoke, and before he took two puffs, he heard Qi Anhe shouting excitedly: "Uncle, look at it, there is black soil here!" ”

Qi Gui bent down and picked up a swarthy clod of soil and shook it at Father Ye, obviously very excited.

Father Ye naturally couldn't squat anymore, put out the cigarette he had just lit, and took three steps and two steps to Qi Anhe and Qi Gui, panicking Qi Anhe and said continuously: "Uncle, you slow down." ”

After all the land was turned over, the result was indeed very surprising, except for the first two zhang or so of the ground did not turn out the black soil, the others turned out the black soil.

What makes Daddy Ye happiest is that this black soil is loose and is the most suitable for cuttings.

In order to the survival rate of the grape branches of the cuttings, Daddy Ye specially fertilized and watered the land, at this time there is no chemical fertilizer, there is only organic farm fertilizer, which is naturally the most suitable for grape cuttings and planting.

After fertilizing and watering the land, Father Ye told Qi Gui and Qi Anhe to turn it over again three days later, and then made the ground into a furrow about two and a half feet wide, about three and a half inches, and a distance of about two feet.

Although Father Ye said to his family that he would live in Zhuangzi for a few days, because he was really worried about his family, he planned to stay for one night at most today, and when he was sure that the few places on the mountain needed to be reclaimed, he would return to Hongfeng Village to arrange for Qi Gui, so he had to explain in advance how to do this land in advance to avoid mistakes.
