Chapter 165: The Banquet for the Promotion of the Appointed County Minister

There has been basically no drought in Qinghuai County, and there is another river running through the county, and there is plenty of water in the county.

The people of Qinghuai County have never experienced the suffering of water shortage, and the same is true of the villagers of Zhuwo Village and Diowo Village.

But now it's different, especially for those who have planted more than ten acres of land, or who lack people in their families.

Every day, I feel like I don't have to do anything else, just between the river and the fields.

Not to mention being tired, whenever I look at the buckets of people who are watering in the fields, even a "wave" can't be turned up, and the rice can't be short of water, the despair in my heart may only be understood by the villagers of the two villages.

More than ten days have passed in a blink of an eye, and the spring equinox has finally ushered in.

Just after the vernal equinox, the sky began to be gloomy and a prelude to rain.

The villagers have never been so eager for a rain, not too big, not too long, as long as a little rain can be sent to moisten the seedlings in the fields.

At ten o'clock in the evening, thunderstorms gradually sounded in the sky, and several lightning bolts shuttled through the dark clouds in an instant.

Lightning.

The raindrops finally fell from the sky above the land at this moment, moistening the land for thousands of miles.

The arrival of spring rain also indicates that... The continuous spring rain will inevitably cause the river to rise to a certain extent.

The villagers excitedly ran into the rain and yelled, venting the joy in their hearts.

Some even untied their coats and danced in their hands, running through the rain and shouting.

Su Baiya was checking the account books in the financial room, and suddenly heard a roar and shouting outside, and her heart was surging.

When I looked at the sky under the eaves, it turned out to be a ticking spring rain.

I returned to the house, picked up the oil-paper umbrella, stretched it out, stepped into the rain, and welcomed the arrival of the first spring rain with the villagers.

I don't know who suddenly shouted: "The river is connected to our fields, can we raise some fish, and even fish out the fish in the river and raise them in our fields, how good it is to eat sashimi when there is nothing to do." ”

"Ergou, let's go down to the river to fish?"

"Let's go, I'll go with you."

This idea not only made the villagers excited, but also woke up Su Baiya, and it is a good way to raise fish in rice fields or ducks in rice fields in later generations.

This will not only increase the yield of rice, but also generate income for the villagers, in short, many benefits.

After a few spring rains, the river gradually began to rise, and finally overflowed the lowest part of the dam, and gradually flowed down the canal into the fields, and finally into the catchment pond.

From now on, the villagers no longer need to carry wooden barrels to fetch water from the river half a mile away.

The villagers worked hard to pick up water for almost 20 days, and it was not without harvest, Su Baiya went to the field to check the growth of the rice, and there was no difference from the expected results, and some of them were ready to be planted.

...

In fact, Su Baiya's initial decision was to connect the canal to the fields near the river bank to grow rice and see how it works.

After the rice season is ripe and harvested, we will consider convincing the villagers to plant all the rice.

After she proposed the idea of planting rice and explained the benefits of planting rice, the villagers immediately believed him and said that they wanted to plant rice.

So she changed her original plan and connected all the fields in the two villages with a canal, and at the same time distributed rice to the people of the two villages.

Hopefully, her decision is not wrong and can bring higher income to the villagers.

...

In the process of raising seedlings, when the growth of seedlings exceeds 8 cm, they can be officially transplanted into the field.

The seedlings that had been raised earlier had already exceeded this height, and they were ready to start planting in the fields.

Rice cultivation is not difficult, Su Baiya once accidentally saw it in a book.

One of them: I'd rather float on the water than lose my waist.

Second: the row of seedlings is about 15 centimeters apart, which is not absolute and can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

Third: the waist of the rice seedlings is flush with the water surface.

Where it is difficult to plant rice, it is difficult to maintain it in the later stage, such as weeding, insect control and sparrow control.

In terms of field drainage, Su Baiya has already considered when designing the canal, once the water source is sufficient, only need to lower the dam gate to cut off the water source.

At the same time, the retainer between the field and the catchment tank is opened so that most of the excess water in the field can be put into the catchment.

How to plant seedlings in the field, Su Baiya does not plan to guide the villagers by hand, because this is not difficult.

So the method was completely handed over to the people in the regulatory department, and the people in the regulatory department then taught it to the villagers.

The villagers mastered the method and began to plant rice in full swing.

......

Now that the weather is warmer, the sales of down jackets are zero, and they have entered the off-season, Su Baiya simply closed the down jacket shop.

I started to ask someone to decorate the two shops next to the down jacket shop, one to sell face masks, the other to sell flowers, and the original down jacket shop to sell flower tea and other things to be launched in the future.

In the coming winter, the production of flowers will inevitably decrease, and if the sales of flowers are not good, then stop first and continue to resume sales of down jackets.

If the sales of flowers are good, then sell flowers that are only available in winter, such as plum blossoms or cold orchids.

After a month of rushing work, the mask already has a certain amount of stock, and if the sales are too hot, then limit the sales volume of the day and the maximum number of purchases per person, which will not lead to a shortage of stock.

The initial forecast of flower sales will not be too high, because the premise of playing flowers is that the family has spare money, otherwise, just pick some flowers and plants on the roadside and plant them in the yard.

There are so many rich people in Qinghuai County, and there are not many people who can play with flowers.

The decoration of the shop was in full swing, and at the same time, Boss Su's letter of appointment came down, and the word agent in front of the county was successfully removed without accident.

This incident caused a wave in the rich circle of Qulan Town, because with Boss Su's qualifications, his life was also the end of the classic history, and he could guess that there must be something wrong with it after a little thought.

When Boss Su arrived on the day of Xiumu, he began to send out invitations, inviting big families in Qulan Town to celebrate in Fuyun Building.

Celebration is real, but of course receiving red envelopes is also true.

If the local businessman wants to do business smoothly, he has to have a good relationship with the county general.

Boss Su got up early and went to the shop in the Fuyun Building, ready to welcome the arrival of the guests.

Ruan Ruiyi arrived, Ruan Carrier also waited here early.

Seeing Boss Su walking into the shop, he quickly got up and congratulated: "Congratulations to Master Su." ”
