Volume 1: The Source of Life Chapter 99: Enclosure
This land is not much better than other wastelands.
There were clods of soil everywhere, and there was no trace of fertility, and even the grass on the ground was sparsely grown, and it looked like a malnourished.
As far as the eye can see, the whole land is thin bushes and wild grass.
The only thing that can be thankful is that the water in the nearby river is not polluted, and there is a reservoir above the river, and the water in the reservoir is also a non-polluted water source.
With water, there is everything.
Sang Yu squatted down, reached out and scooped a hand of water, put it between his nose and sniffed it, and then stretched out his tongue and licked it.
The smell is clear and the taste is dull, and this is indeed the best quality water source available.
Liu Xing saw Sang Yu looking at the river and didn't speak, and pointed to the two hills behind the reservoir: "The reason why the water in the reservoir here is not polluted is because there are springs in the mountains. The water here is all left over from the stagnant water and springs in the mountains, so it is much cleaner and purer than other places. ”
I see.
Sang Yu suddenly realized that with the blessing of the spring water, her confidence was a little stronger.
Although, Xiaoxiaoxiang is a water system ability, but others have low abilities, and now there is no problem with drinking water to meet several people, and no matter how much it is, it can't be done.
If you want to get better irrigation for this more than 1,000 acres of land, you can only rely on the reservoir on this mountain.
"Even so, the upstream intake canal of the reservoir still needs to be equipped with a purification system. The canals had to be re-dug to prevent sewage from flowing in and to facilitate irrigation. ”
Sang Yu whispered to Meng Qinghu, and Meng Qinghu quickly recorded it on the light brain.
A purification system.
Liu Xing pointed to a farmland below the reservoir, and several swaying figures in the farmland.
"Dashuai let us bring a set of farmland machinery and equipment, and will leave ten people for you, these people will be your people in the future, just use them, they are all good at farming."
This is an unexpected surprise, Sang Yu and they are most lacking now is people.
With the help of these dozen or so people, then their early rice may be able to go to the ground early.
Sang Yu is also not polite to Liu Xing, he owes too many favors, and he can't be polite.
"Okay, thank you Uncle Wang for me, when my farm is all repaired, I will invite him, Brother Jinghua and Sister Jingxian to come over to visit."
Seeing her unceremonious look, Liu Xing's face showed a smile, the more Sang Yu was like this, the more he didn't treat him as an outsider.
"Our eldest lady was clamoring to come, but the eldest prince stopped her. When I left, she told me in person, saying that after a month, your side will be almost busy, and then she will ask the eldest young master to accompany her to play for a few days. ”
For being sent to help on the farm, many people may feel that it is useless work. But Liu Xing didn't think that he had realized that the little girl in front of him was someone that both the eldest son and the eldest lady liked.
Even the big handsome gave her land, which shows that the relationship is not ordinary.
As long as you manage it well, you will definitely be able to make the handsome man leave an impression on himself.
When I go back, I must run more to the eldest prince and eldest lady, and brush up on the impression points, and half of the Wang family will not belong to this brother and sister in the future.
Several people watched while walking, and Meng Qinghu recorded the things that needed to be purchased.
Now they have two sets of machinery, Wang Bancheng sent one set, and Xiao Muchen extorted one set. When Daming comes, he and Daming can operate one by one. More than a thousand acres of land, with modern machines, are completely out of the question for them.
However, since Uncle Wang sent someone to help them open the pit first, it would be the best, at least everyone would be more relaxed.
A few people walked and stopped, and every piece of land, mulberry elm would be picked up to see, soil quality, moisture.
After a circle, Sang Yu felt a little bottom in his heart.
A few people walked all the way up the hill along the old canal, and they went to the reservoir first.
Sang Yu chose a relatively fertile piece of land near the bottom of the reservoir and circled it with his own pen: "Here, vegetables are planted, parsnips are planted in the reservoir, fruit trees are planted on the mountains, and grain is planted below." ”
Liu Xing looked at Meng Sangyu's plan and found that she had enclosed the two small hills behind the reservoir.
Originally, these two small hills were not included in her title deeds.
This girl is really not simple, don't look at her young age, one step is ten steps. With just a few words, she occupied two more hills.
No one cares about barren mountains and bald mountains, and it costs a lot to plant fruit trees. I only hope that this little girl's ambition can be worthy of her ability, and don't be able to grow anything badly at that time, even kung fu will be on board.
Liu Xing would not remind Meng Sangyu that the soil on the mountain was even more barren.
When he came, Dashuai personally told him that he was playing with the child, and she was happy to play. Whether the land can be planted or not, the marshal has no hope at all.
Relying on a few children to farm the land is a big joke.
But the eldest lady and the eldest young master told him that no matter what Meng Sangyu wanted to do or want, they asked him to try to meet it. If you can't be satisfied, don't say no, come to them, and they will find a way for him.
I don't know what the three of the handsome father and son like about this child, not only the handsome are spoiled, but even the eldest young master and eldest lady are spoiled.
This kid, even if he can't do it, this luck is good.
If she grows food, that's what she's capable of.
If she really can't grow food, I don't think anyone will blame her, it's a child after all.
Meng Sangyu had just drawn the planning map of the planting area, and Liu Xing came over to get it, and he had already sent the soldiers sent to plant to drive the machine.
According to the plan, those areas will be fixed first.
Ten machines drove into the fields, rotary tillage, strip sowing, and ditching.
Also, the place occupied by Sang Yu is not valuable, but he still has to report to the eldest lady and the eldest son.
It's not something he's up to.
Twenty days later, all the fields were planted, and the water from the reservoir was watched as the water flowed into the fields, moistening the fine soil and soaking the seeds.
Meng Sangyu had a smile on her face, she knew that the harvest from these fields was limited.
But she didn't mind at all.
It's just this year that she wants to clear these fields and plant crops. As for the real gain, she set her sights on the mountains.
The hill is not high, and the weeds and trees on it have been cleared, and the fruit seedlings have been transplanted into it.
No one knows where this fruit tree came from, the seedlings are small and immature, stretching their branches and leaves in this hot spring breeze.
"This seedling is too young, can it survive?"
Liu Xing came over today to deliver insect medicine to Sang Yu.
"It's okay, we can't buy adult seedlings now, so we can only find some of these seedlings."
Sang Yu can't say that these seedlings were catalyzed by her seeds, and although they are young, they are stronger than ordinary fruit tree seedlings and can quickly take root and grow.
Meng Qinghu and Daming are erecting water spray pipes.
The weather is very hot, and water is essential for growth. Only by erecting pipelines, turning on the machine regularly, and letting the water flow moisten the fruit trees on the mountain, can these fruit trees really survive.
And the excess water from the mountains will flow to the ravines below, and continue to water the farmland.
The building that Wang Bancheng built for Sangyu is very good, there is no shortage of walls, protective covers, and there are defense systems built by light blades, ultraviolet rays, and infrared rays on the walls.
Only ten buildings were built, if it weren't for Meng Sangyu's strong resistance, Liu Xing would have built fifty buildings according to the plan given by the eldest prince, and with the situation of the villa area, it was beautiful and good-looking.
Now there are only ten buildings, standing alone inside the wall, looking very lonely.
Meng Sangyu felt that the ten buildings were wasted, and joked, they only had two families of six people, and one person could not live in one of the ten buildings.
The three brothers and sisters of Meng Qinghu lived in one building, the three members of Daming's family lived in one building, and the ten people sent by Wang Bancheng lived in one building.
The other six buildings stand quietly. Only when it was first built, the people who helped with the planting lived in it, and now it remains empty, waiting for their owners to arrive.
If you really build fifty buildings according to the plan, there will be no one to live in in the future, and you will feel scared to think about it.
The fruit tree saplings on the mountain were planted on only one slope, and the time was too short, and the mulberry elm had limited energy.
Sang Yu took Liu Xing to see the fields under the mountain, the seedlings had just come out, and they were tender and green like a freshly laid carpet.
"Do you think it's going to be rewarding?"
Now the germination rate of seedlings is quite high, and they may not be able to grow well in the later stage, and Liu Xing has no confidence at all.
Sang Yu just smiled: "Do your best, the first year will definitely not be good, but it will be fine slowly." ”
The little girl said that it would be fine slowly, with a dazzling light on her face, if it weren't for Liu Xing's understanding of the current soil quality, knowing that this kind of agricultural products that do not rely on nutrient solution and reduce medicine are difficult to grow, he would almost have to believe her.
He didn't want the little girl to be hit, so he gently reminded: "If you can't plant it, it's okay, you can change it to nutrient solution to plant it." ”
"Nope."
The little girl's gaze suddenly became firm: "The disappearance of so many plants and animals is the most convenient way for people to pursue, and forget their original growth habits. Rice takes three to four months, from seedling raising to transplanting...... One by one, it has to go through the process it should take. ”
"Now that the blue star is warmer, many animals and plants have to adapt to this process, and I have researched that more than 1,000 years ago it was possible to grow double cropping rice, and now I want to try double cropping rice and grow wheat once."
"It's just that the wheat needs to be low, and now it's not cold in winter, I don't know if it's okay!"
Meng Sangyu's small mouth trumpeted and said a lot.
"I have a feeling that you might be able to build this farm."
Liu Xing looked at the little girl in front of her, she didn't say it casually, she really studied it. He hesitated, maybe the little girl could really do it.
"Of course, I'm sure I can."
Sang Yu proudly raised her little hand, she has the ability to give birth to plants and change the environment of the soil. The little water abilities also helped her a lot, but they were limited and could only change slowly one by one.
"Sang Yu, someone is looking for you, there are many people, they say they are your friends."
In the distance, Meng Xinai ran over, and there was really a group of people behind her.
Sang Yu looked at the few people who ran closer, his mouth opened slightly, why did they come?
