Chapter Fifty-Six: Hard Watering
"Hiss~ If you do this, that piece of land will be completely destroyed!" After Jiang Xiaolong listened, cold air softened between his teeth, and he felt that the bed was sore.
Ruthless, this old thing is really ruthless.
Zhang Fugong smiled: "Are you stupid? That's not your land! Besides, it's a wasteland in itself, so a fool will contract it!"
"That's just as well. Jiang Xiaolong nodded and pondered, "But, how much salt does such a large piece of land get?"
"Look at it yourself. Zhang Fugong said.
Jiang Xiaolong pondered for a moment and said, "Then I don't have that much money to buy salt, so forget it and wait for it." Hey, it seems that that dead boy is going to get rich before me this time! No, you, the richest man in Jiangbian Village, are about to lose his position!"
In fact, he was waiting for Zhang Fugong to take the initiative to sign up.
Sure enough, Zhang Fugong couldn't see him retreating, otherwise wouldn't this bottle of Green River Daqu be in vain tonight? More than ten yuan a bottle!
"In this case, I'll give you salt!" he gritted his teeth, "You always have water, right?
"Okay!"
Jiang Xiaolong nodded and agreed, Zhang Fugong's heart was dripping blood! The bags of salt were all wholesaled by him.
In the evening, Zhang Fugong watched Jiang Xiaolong carry a whole box of salt home.
After turning around and entering the house, Zhang Fugong glanced at his daughter-in-law Miao Juhua strangely. The latter was leaning on the sofa and eating melon seeds watching TV, her face flushed, and she ignored her husband.
"Hey, something is wrong with you old lady today!" Zhang Fugong said.
Miao Juhua glanced at him: "What's wrong?"
"I usually pick and choose, and I feel distressed to spend a dime. Today, Jiang Xiaolong carried a box of salt away, and you didn't ask why?" Zhang Fugong said.
Miao Juhua sneered: "You two bad maggots got together, aren't you studying how to eat?
One sentence blocked Zhang Fugong back, and he didn't doubt him, so he snorted and went into the back room.
This night, Jiang Xiaolong was very busy.
He boiled water and soaked salt for most of the night. Then he called his younger brother, and carried him to the ground one load after another.
Crash!
When the first scoop of boiling salt water was poured into the field, the hearts of the two brothers, Jiang Xiaolong and Jiang Xiaobao, were still trembling.
But when they saw that the crops were wilting and the ground was smoking, their hearts rejoiced. The two of them became more and more motivated, scoop after scoop, helping Jiang Xiaohu pour the ground cold.
The two of them were busy until five o'clock, and Jiang Xiaobao couldn't hold it back: "Brother, I'll go back first, and when you go back, your brother and sister can't find me when they wake up, it's time to ask me what's wrong." ”
"Well, go ahead, I'll finish the last bucket myself. Jiang Xiaolong nodded.
As soon as his brother left, he turned around and tripped on the bucket, and with a bang, a half-boiled bucket of hot water splashed directly on his entire instep.
"Hiss!" Jiang Xiaolong gritted his teeth in pain, jumped and jumped with his feet in his hands, and tripped and fell into the ditch without paying attention.
A few minutes later, Jiang Xiaolong crawled out in embarrassment and sat on the side of the road to watch his feet burn. The instep of the foot is red and swollen, and the foot is full of blisters.
If you don't look at it, when you look at Jiang Xiaolong, you feel that even your hair hurts. The fall just now gave him a sore back and a sore back, and the bubbles were broken several times, a lot of liquid oozed out, and the wound was still sticking to fresh soil.
"xxx, Jiang Xiaohu, Lao Tzu is also heartbroken for you! Today, this land, if you don't waste it, you will be my father!" Jiang Xiaolong scolded.
He finally managed it all, and limped home with the guy.
Not long after Jiang Xiaolong left, the field behind him that had been destroyed by his hard work was undergoing subtle changes.
The surface layer of the soil that was almost cooked, the fine black layer, gradually assimilated into the other soil as the water soaked deep into the soil.
And those plants that seem to be scalded to death by boiling water have also undergone magical changes because of this change.
They have plump stems, thick leaves, straight waists, and no signs of wilting. Full of life and waving in the wind.
It seems that Jiang Xiaolong's hard work this night has really not been in vain!
......
"Ahh
He rubbed his nose, reminisced about the cool sneeze just now, and muttered, "Who is talking about me? Could it be Xu Linglong?"
Picking out the eye droppings from the corners of his eyes, Jiang Xiaohu lazily got up from the bed.
Going to bed early every day and waking up early in the morning, it seems that the regular life is actually another mystery at night.
At night, he was always dreaming, and in the dream, it was the little fairy sister chatting with him.
They seemed to speak in a foreign language, but Jiang Xiaohu didn't understand it at all. But listening to her was very comfortable.
After waking up every day, Jiang Xiaohu can feel that his body is different from yesterday, as if he is stronger.
But this may be a delusion, after all, there is no evidence to corroborate.
"Oh, I don't know what happened to my land. When Jiang Xiaohu brushed his teeth, he thought about it again.
Previously, he got a pot of black soil from the mountains and rivers and used it to plant a tomato. The results are encouraging, the black soil is clearly very nutritious, and the fruit is sweet and delicious. That ordinary tomato, compared to his experiment, is just shit.
But at the same time, he did a set of experiments, and there was a small vegetable patch in the yard of his house, and he also got some black soil and sprinkled it on it.
The quality of the vegetable plots has also been improved, and the fruits are abundant. As a result, Jiang Xiaohu boldly sprinkled all the rented land with black soil, which took him several nights of effort.
But the result didn't seem to be as he had hoped.
The notoginseng he transplanted gradually decayed, and the tomatoes and vegetables he planted did not grow as well as those at home.
After thinking about it, Jiang Xiaohu felt that it was most likely because the land was too barren and the amount of black soil was not enough.
"It's really not good, I'll get some more black soil tonight!" Jiang Xiaohu said secretly.
After breakfast, he took his head and picked up his pick, and went out into the field.
From a distance, a large area of green oil is growing gratifyingly. As soon as he saw this scene, Jiang Xiaohu was in a good mood: "Haha! I'm worried about it in vain!"
When he was in a happy mood, he was refreshed, but he also found that overnight, the weeds in the field had grown a lot, so he jumped down to remove the weeds.
said that Jiang Xiaolong's two brothers worked all night, and they were as tired as dead dogs. After sleeping until he got up in the middle of the afternoon, Jiang Xiaolong stretched his waist, ate something, and went out.
Along the way, he was in a good mood, hoping to hear some unfortunate news.
As a result, the village was very calm, and everyone was as usual.
As he walked, he saw a person coming to him, carrying a basket and a hoe, wasn't that his sworn enemy Jiang Xiaohu?
