Chapter 36: Green Reserve
"This matter is not in a hurry, our bud valley has not been confiscated, I have to say hello to my uncle, and when the time comes, the two families will do this together."
If you want to compete with your stepmother, the power of the patriarch should not be underestimated, and it works for him to talk in front of his grandfather! After all, my father is still only a son.
It is quite complicated to use bud grain poles to make green storage, and you must use some extraordinary means, and if you don't get moldy, you can't use it to feed livestock.
The tender buds in the snack bar were selling very hot, and finally, the three big families in the town touched Sujia Village.
They also knew the patriarch of the Su family, and when they said what they meant, the patriarch groaned a little.
"The seeds are not mine, they were sent by my uncle, I only planted two acres this year, I ate them at home, and the rest is only next year's seeds, there are really not many, and I have to share some with relatives." However, I can help you ask about Uncle's Mansion. ”
"Brother Su, I don't want to thank you, we have also heard that this thing is very popular around the capital, but I went to buy it a few times, but I didn't buy the seeds. I have also eaten in the capital, the taste is far inferior to ours, delicious, my grandson is greedy, every day I call people to run to the wonton shop. ”
The price of seeds is much higher than selling grain, and Qing Niang listened to her uncle's intentions, and she was very willing, and she didn't hide it from him at the moment:
"Wait for Liu Song to come back, I asked him to inquire about the price of the seeds, if you make seeds, they must be ripe, it's still early." During this time, ten acres have been picked one after another, and ten acres are left for self-eating, and the rest can be sold in addition to seeds. She plans to harvest ten acres of tender ones and sell them for a high price! ”
"How much grain can we lay in this acre, does Sister Qing know?"
"I estimated it, it's about seven or eight hundred pounds." In her previous life, the yield per mu was more than 1,000, but now there is no chemical fertilizer or anything, and she doesn't dare to estimate it.
"Can you really lay this? Haha, okay, you are the lucky doll in our clan! Haha, by the way, I heard Li Da say outside, Bofu wants to raise mules? ”
"This matter, I was going to tell my uncle, I recently harvested a lot of tender bud grain, and the pole is still green, I saw a method in the book, you can make a green store, and leave it for winter to feed livestock, so I want to get it together." She didn't say anything about the mules, so why didn't she feed them when she had feed?
"What you say is true? Is there any use for the bud bar? ”
"Really, the bud stalks are sweet, and the livestock eat the fat, and then mix some beans with it, which is the best feed."
"I'm afraid it's not easy to put the green pole in winter, right?"
"It's not easy, the method of preservation is very complicated, that is, digging cellars. I see that there is a large piece of high ground behind our ancestral hall, which is not easy to accumulate water, so it is more suitable for this. ”
"That's really a coincidence, that place was originally your family's, connected to the ancestral hall, your grandfather used it for the clan, and now no one can say anything about digging the cellar!"
At the moment, the address was finalized, and the patriarch went back to find someone to build, this cellar is not an ordinary pit, and it needs to be paved with bluestone slabs. Because the patriarch's family didn't plant much this year, he said that his family would only dig one bite, and when it was next year, he would dig next to it.
The patriarch helped find someone, and Qing Niang didn't let him bear any more expenses.
The ten acres of land in the bud valley were broken, and the green poles were not cut, just to make a green reserve. After cutting the poles, she had to plow as soon as possible, and she was going to use the ten acres of land for experiments to see if the winter wheat could survive?
Although the winter here is cold, she wants to try her own seeds, doesn't it mean that the space has the ability to defy the sky?
"Uncle Li, is there a suitable person in the village, let's hire some short-term workers, I have been working too much recently, and I have to borrow some guillotines to make this green material."
"Then I'll go to the village and say, "The one with the guillotine will be paid more?"
"Okay, this method is good, when the time comes, I won't pay the wages, and I will give two carts of materials, I estimate that I will touch it, don't stop, one guillotine can be used for a hundred carts."
When the time comes, it is the business of others who do not change the knife, and what she wants is fast, because after the green material is finished, it must be compacted and sealed within a few hours, otherwise it will become moldy.
She is also very adventurous this time, and when she plans to press the material, sprinkle some space stream water, that thing is also a little magical, although it is not as good as the spiritual spring, the vegetable fields that can be used to water it are very good, and there is no disease.
If you have a gold finger, you have to use it, otherwise you won't be blind?
The patriarch found a lot of clansmen, because Qing Niang's salary was high, and they worked very hard, but they didn't understand, why did they dig so many pits, and the patriarch didn't explain, they could work with money, and it was useless to ask so much.
The stone is also beaten by the people of the village, because the wages are high, the fertilizer water can not flow into the fields of outsiders, and their poles have just been cut, and the pit has been paved flat.
In order to seal the lid well, she didn't dig that kind of big pit, it was all two meters square, because it was easy to seal.
Ten acres of fresh food bud valley, Hulu Town can't eat it at all, because it can't be put for a long time, she plans to transport it to Fucheng, but whoever goes will make it difficult for her, Li Da has no problem doing the work in the field, but he doesn't even recognize the road to Fucheng, and Uncle Liu is in the food shop, and he can't do without it.
Her eyes are on the second uncle, there will also be this problem in their family next year, let's go on a trip together this year.
As soon as her meaning was revealed, the second aunt jumped up.
"Go, I'll go with your second uncle! You don't know, my uncle is in Fucheng, he is still the governor of the government, although the official rank is not high, but there are many people who know him. ”
The second aunt's family is in the city, and she also took a fancy to the Bofu family back then, so she married her daughter, and she has lived well over the years.
Qing Niang didn't go when she heard it, she only received three wen per ear, and gave up the profit of two wen, as for the second uncle, whether they cooked and sold it, or wholesale, it was none of her business, anyway, they must be profitable. At that time, the second aunt's face was smiling like a chrysanthemum.
Because of the high technical content of being a green reserve, she has to be present for guidance, and she has to do some cheating, right?
Uncle Zu is also very interested in this, the whole process is watching carefully, those green poles are broken, soon put into the dug cellar, each layer, let people go down to step on it, this is a laborious work, can be given a high wage!
Qing Niang held a kettle on the side, watched the material dry some, sprinkled some water, after the whole compaction, sealed it with a wooden board, and then wiped it with mud, pressed a large stone on it, and built an umbrella-shaped top, just like that, two days of hard work, there are a few more round hats behind the ancestral hall, even if it rains, it can't be drenched.
"That's it, won't it break?"
"As you can see, there are several layers of oiled paper under the boards, and they are slowly fermenting underneath. The top top is also very important, it can block the rain, and the inside will not break. When the winter comes, you can come and get it in parts, and the livestock will not be hungry. ”
The green storage cellars here were sealed one by one, and the second uncle and second aunt came back from Fucheng happily, and they sent the payment to Qing Niang, and happily told her:
