"Rice?" Sheng Qingqing's eyes widened slightly, a little unclear, and asked, "Uncle Kong, do you have any basis for choosing to plant this?" ”

Shengjia Village is located in the south, and there is nothing wrong with planting rice. But there are many other options besides rice.

Of course, no matter what you grow, you need to consume a certain amount of silver as a cost. Although she now has transactions with Shopkeeper Wan and the Cheng family, the money is not born out of thin air and can be wasted casually, so even if she has a goal, she still needs to ask why she is doing it.

Sheng Qingqing basically doesn't know anything about farming, so she has more problems. Fortunately, Kong Gaoming is a simple temper and doesn't care about her problems, and after hearing this, he patiently explained it carefully for her.

"I've been looking around for the past few days, and most of the rice in the village is grown." Kong Gaoming scratched his head.

Most of the crops grown in each village are different. Even in a neighboring village, it is possible to grow rice and soybeans. The reason why this is like this is probably because the village chief of this village has spoken, such as the town where Kong Gaoming used to live, before he planted the land, every time the town mayor would unite the people in the town, first announce the goal of the year, and then explain the types of plants that need to be planted, and finally everyone planted together, of course, this is not mandatory, if you really want to plant others, you can also choose by yourself, but the consequences are at your own risk, and if there is anything you need help during the planting period, the rest of the village will not be able to give it.

Kong Gaoming has observed Shengjia Village in the past few days and found that Shengjia Village is not such a model, the old village chief's choice of the villagers is in a laissez-faire state, what you want to plant, then plant.

But people, there always has to be a herd mentality, not to mention that if the big guys all plant this, you can't be too unsociable.

And......

"I don't know much about the climate here, but since everyone chooses this way, it must be because the rice can have a better harvest." Kong Gaoming said seriously.

Sheng Qingqing nodded in agreement when she heard this.

In ancient times, there was no weather forecast or anything, and if you want to know the changes in the solar terms and climate, it is all up to experienced old farmers to judge. Sheng Qingqing, a "rookie" who farms, naturally does not have this ability, and Kong Gaoming is from another place, even if he is not far from Shengjia Village, but his experience is definitely not as rich as that of the old farmers in Shengjia Village.

"Then let's plant rice." Sheng Qingqing thought about it, but still made a decision.

Rice is also a relatively safe crop, and if it grows well, it is not afraid that it will not be sold. There may be people who don't eat meat and vegetables these days, but there will definitely be no people who don't eat staple foods.

"So what are we going to do first?" Sheng Qingqing asked.

She really didn't know anything. In modern times, although they are poor, they really have never been exposed to farming.

Kong Gaoming smiled and said, "Are you busy now, girl, if you are not busy, go to the field with me to have a look?" ”

"Okay!" Sheng Qingqing agreed.

It just so happened that both children were asleep, and she was really free.

So after talking to Aunt Niu next door and asking her to help watch the Sheng family, the two walked to the Sheng family's field one after the other.

Kong Gaoming took the lead, and Sheng Qingqing followed.

When she and Kong Gaoming had decided to farm in spring before, Sheng Qingqing had already told Kong Gaoming the location of her family's two plots of land. In the past two days, Kong Gao has come here tomorrow to look, and now walking between the ridges of the field, he seems to be more familiar with going to the field than her.

Sheng Qingqing rubbed the corners of her forehead, a little embarrassed.

This is the second time she has been in the field since she came into this world. The last time she came was two months ago, when she had just come to this world, when she was confused and uncertain, and that time she was just passing by in a hurry, and she didn't even look carefully at what was going on in the field.

What's more, two months ago, these lands were a little devastated and poor due to the cold winter, but now, you can see villagers everywhere who are busy farming, and there is a vibrant scene everywhere, which is very different from two months ago.

Their family's land is not large, compared to other people's land of more than ten acres at every turn, Sheng Qingqing visually inspected it, and their family's land is about five or six acres.

But Sheng Qingqing doesn't care, there are very few people with cattle these years. Farming can basically only rely on manpower, and five or six acres of land, one person is already very tired.

"Your family has about six acres of land in the village." Kong Gaoming confirmed Sheng Qingqing's guess, and said: "There are still two acres of land on the mountain side, so I suggest that you don't need to plant rice, just plant some vegetables and give them to your own food." ”

Sheng Qingqing nodded seriously, and asked again: "Is it not good to grow rice in the mountains?" ”

Kong Gaoming smiled honestly and approvingly: "That's right, the soil quality on the other side of the mountain is not good." ”

In other aspects, Kong Gaoming is a little wooden, but in terms of farming, he has changed the impression he gave people in the past, and has become able to speak well, and has repeatedly said a lot of knowledge about farming.

Sheng Qingqing didn't know much about this, and he didn't think he was verbose at all when he heard the words, and listened very seriously.

One said happily, the other listened carefully, and time flew by in the conversation between the two, and in the blink of an eye, the two arrived at the Sheng family's land.

Most of the land in the village is in one place, and the middle is divided by a field. At this time, although it has just been the beginning of spring, the experienced farmers in the village have already begun the preparation work before planting.

Kong Gaoming explained: "Before planting, there is still a lot of preparation, especially your family's land, which has not been touched for nearly ten years. ”

The land that has not been planted for ten years has basically dried up and lost its vitality. If you want to replant, it is naturally much more troublesome than those that have been planted for many years.

Kong Gaoming said the preparations that needed to be made one by one.

The first is to reclaim the land.

It's not complicated, just turn over the whole land and make it soft.

But this step may be simple for other people, but for Sheng Qingqing, it is the most difficult step.

Because they have few families!

can be regarded as a laborer, and Kong Gaoming is the only one. Now that spring planting is about to begin, how can he quickly turn over such a large piece of land by himself.

Sheng Qingqing: "What does Uncle Kong mean?" ”

Since Kong Gaoming has proposed it, he already has a way.

Sure enough, as soon as she asked this, Kong Gaoming did not hesitate at all, and said the way.

"I asked, Second Brother Niu doesn't plant so much land this year, so the girl can borrow the old cow."
