Chapter 168: Spice Garden
Common seasonings, generally that is, pepper, star anise, cinnamon, cumin, fragrant sand, cloves, pepper, meat and the like, like star anise, cumin and the like can be planted at this time, and there are also onions, ginger, garlic and peppers, plums and the like, pepper trees, cinnamon trees need to be planted for at least four or five years before harvesting, but they can also be planted first......
Tang Shijin wrote the list in his pocket book and asked, "How many circles?" ”
Yan Baiwei said: "Nearly 100 acres. ”
She nodded, and said, "On the other side of the spice garden, we want to lead a spring to the past, but instead of leading the river, we cut it off with bamboo halfway and make a pipe." ”
She took out the paper and drew it for him.
That is to say, first use the thickest giant bamboo, intercept the water halfway, and then use the way to divert the water to make a soil automatic irrigation system, when the time comes, every field, are connected to a bamboo pipe, when not in use, you can plug it with a plug, when you use it, remove the plug to let it flow out, flexible control.
Moreover, bamboo is not easy to rot, and it is not easy to freeze and crack with living water, so if you are lucky, you can use it for three or four years at a time.
In this way, for Tang Shijin, the advantage is that she can add spiritual spring water to it regularly and quantitatively, so that she doesn't have to add so much trouble to each one, and it is also safer and leaves no traces.
Yan Baiwei listened very seriously, and only nodded at the end.
Tang Shijin said again: "Speaking of bamboo pipes, I think of another thing, we take a bath, it's too troublesome to use a bucket every day, I think, find someone to beat a copper, or burn a ceramic." ”
She drew one on the paper: "It's this kind of very flat vat, we put it on the roof, cover it with a bamboo mat on the top, and make a pipe at the bottom, usually the sun will be very hot, when the time comes, you can add a little cold water, heat the water, adjust it properly, and you can take a bath directly down the flow, isn't it very convenient?" It saves firewood, doesn't have to be carried around, and is clean. Especially in summer! ”
This kind of thing, the real city people don't know, but they are little gangsters, and they have used it seriously for a few years, it is a big black leather bag, which is quite convenient to use, but it will age after three years, and they need to be replaced with another one.
Yan Baiwei smiled: "It's good, why didn't you say it earlier?" Now your yard is finished, and you have to change it again! ”
Tang Shijin said: "I just thought of it! ”
"Okay," Yan Baiwei didn't bother much, so he said, "I'll find someone to do it when I go back." ”
Tang Shijin said: "Then I'll go to the county seat to buy seeds." ”
So after breakfast, the two went their separate ways, and Tang Shijin directly called He Lantern to enter the city together.
Her space is getting bigger and bigger, she basically grasps what to plant, what seeds are all planted in, eat an apple and plant it in it, there are a lot of seeds she planted last year, because plants grow much faster in the space than outside, and they are not limited by the season, so they are planted in such a cycle, and they have saved a lot of seeds, and when the time comes, they will be mixed with ordinary seeds, and a few exceptionally good plants will grow in a large area, which will not be too strange.
After entering the county seat, she first ran to Luo Niangzi and stood there.
Originally, she just ran smoothly, and she was about to do something serious when she came over to play, but Luo Niangzi saw her at a glance and beckoned directly: "What's the matter with your hair, come here and I'll comb it for you!" ”
She let out a sigh and touched it.
She slept directly after taking a shower yesterday, and in the morning her hair was directly curled, so she combed it casually.
She obediently squatted down in front of her knees, and Mrs. Luo asked someone to bring clear water, dipped in water, and carefully combed her hair into a bun.
Tang Shijin asked: "Sister, has the wedding date been set?" ”
Luo Niangzi said: "It's set for the eighth day of the sixth month...... It was the hot time, people looked at two days, one on the eighth day of the sixth month of June, and the other on the sixth day of the ninth month, I said that September would be fine, lukewarm and hot, he preferred not to wait for a moment, and he wanted to be the eighth day of the first month of June. ”
Tang Shijin laughed, because the atmosphere was too warm, she didn't make fun of her.
Luo Niangzi said again: "You don't know, he is the most afraid of heat, that day, he was busy enough to suffer." ”
Tang Shijin said: "I'll come to help on the day I put my head on the day." ”
Luo Niangzi snorted, the two chatted for a while, Luo Niangzi combed her hair, and she left.
Then she remembered that she went to the furniture store where Yan Baiwei took her at that time.
Luo Niangzi's parents have died, and even the ancestral house has been taken away by the clansmen, and now they only live in a shop, and they live behind the shop, and the marriage is also welcomed in the shop, and it is estimated that no one has bought the dowry.
She went over and asked, fortunately the stepping bed had not been sold, she negotiated the price, and won it for six hundred and eighteen taels, and then tightly followed the sandalwood box and the descendant bucket that made people make color matching patterns, and the three major pieces of dowry were there.
And carrying the bride is to be carried by the mother's family, brother or uncle, Luo Niangzi has no brothers, and it is not good to make trouble with the clansmen, but I am afraid that no one will carry it.
She felt that she could do this, after all, weddings are not taboo for women.
While thinking, she came out, and then she was busy for a day, calculating nearly 100 acres of land, how much this one planted, how much that one planted, and then the guy introduced her, and she made it convenient for her to arrange the distance of "automatic irrigation".
She grows these spices, in fact, she doesn't plan to sell them, but mainly breeds, to see if she can raise the best seeds, and then look at the next step.
Guys are sending them here in a car.
Yan Baiwei is worthy of being a worrying person, and he has already made preparations.
It happened to be in May, and the food mill wanted to reduce the output, and it would not use so many people anymore, so it was necessary to temporarily dismiss a batch, and it happened that she was going to use people here, these people were all doing farm work from childhood to adulthood, and planting this was also an expert, seamless, and it was easy for Yang Pengxiao to do it.
Wait until you're almost busy, and then get the bamboo pipe she said.
Tang Shijin found that Yan Baiwei was really a treasure character, although she had such an idea, but she had never implemented it, she didn't know how to operate in detail, but he was stunned to arrange things properly, and it seemed that he didn't need to use his brain at all, just do it.
And the wedge technology of this era, flattening a little here and digging a groove there, I don't know how to embed it tightly, and the fire-roasted bamboo will make the bamboo bend, and the problem of the elbow has also been solved, Tang Shijin is simply amazed.
It took a large group of people five days to plant almost, and Tang Shijin only needed to mix the seeds from time to time.
Like the pepper tree, Yan Baiwei directly returned the seeds she bought, and then sent someone to buy a small pepper tree, transplanted it, and it was said that it would be able to bear fruit in the second year at the latest.
Then Tang Shijin remembered when he saw the transplanting, and went to buy some fruit trees and small trees, and let them find a place to plant them...... Then Yan Baiwei bought more, and it became a small fruit grove, with all kinds of fruit trees, planted in a staggered manner.
