Chapter 232: Open Field

For the beginning of spring next year, from now on, Jiangle Village will start a lot of preparations, and this compost is one of them.

The so-called compost is a mixture of straw and animal manure that is fermented by microorganisms for a long time to produce fertilizer suitable for crop growth.

This method has long been mastered by farmers and has become an effective means of increasing crop yields. The best time to compost is in the summer, when microbial activity is active, the faster the compost is completed.

However, for the villagers of Jiangle Village, this winter also has the benefits of winter. Although the reaction is a little slower, the smell from compost is far less intense than in summer.

In order not to affect the environment in the village, Lin Qingqing also deliberately let them transport them to a vacant land in the south. Not only is it far away from the middle of the village, but it is also downwind, not blowing the smell into the village.

After composting the manure, Lin Qingqing began to lead the villagers to reclaim the new fields.

Jiangle Village is very large, and after more than 100 people live in, whether it is residential land or cultivated land, it is not overloaded. But Lin Qingqing still hopes that the villagers will cultivate more land so that it can be used to grow new varieties of crops.

"Miss Lin, is this reclaimed land here to bask in the sun? Nothing to plant? A villager asked Lin Qingqing.

"Even if you want to plant, you can't plant anything at this time." Lin Qingqing said.

However, Lin Qingqing suddenly remembered the plum trees that could still grow normally in winter. So she quickly discussed with the village chief and asked some of the villagers to plant plum trees in parts of the village.

After arranging the personnel for cutting plum trees, Lin Qingqing continued to arrange the reclamation.

"Don't worry, just turn the soil over and bask in the sun, let the grass and grass seeds on the surface die because there is no sun, and pile them up as fertilizer for next year's crops. The deep soil is just right for the sun to dry and disinfect. Lin Qingqing explained.

The villagers could not fully understand the new terms in Lin Qingqing's words, but since the bean seedling incident, the villagers no longer doubt Lin Qingqing's agricultural attainments.

"As I said, don't do anything to the land before the beginning of spring, just let the sun watch over you." Lin Qingqing said.

"Then, we'd better talk about what crops we're going to plant next year." Lin Qingqing said to the villagers.

"Miss Lin, didn't we grow soybeans very smoothly? Why change crops? A young villager asked Lin Qingqing.

"Because I won't be able to harvest only soybeans next year." Lin Qingqing spread his hand and said. "If this newly reclaimed land is also planted with soybeans, then I can't disappear completely, and you will probably have to find someone else to collect it."

Lin Qingqing's words alerted these villagers. Lin Qingqing's requirements for purchasing soybeans were harsh, but the price he gave was also high. If you sell to other merchants, it may be difficult to give a good price.

After thinking for a while, the villagers asked Lin Qingqing, "Miss Lin, then tell me, what crops do you want to harvest?" ”

"I want to collect a lot of miscellaneous food, basically everything that can be cooked." Lin Qingqing said. "It's you, think about what you want to eat, and then decide what to plant."

"Miss Lin, what does this mean? Aren't you ready to take our dishes? The villagers asked nervously.

"Can I still take all your dishes? Keep a portion for yourselves. Besides, I'm going to open a market where you can exchange your crops with each other. Lin Qingqing said.

However, hearing Lin Qingqing's words, the villagers did not become happy, on the contrary, they began to hesitate. After all, if you have to exchange, then the whole process is quite complicated.

"Forget it, I'll get a cafeteria then. I'll take your food, and when the time comes, you can eat whatever you want. Anyway, it's called your seed, and it will be cheaper when the time comes. Lin Qingqing looked at the villagers and said.

Lin Qingqing's words quickly won everyone's support, but in this way, it seems that he can no longer decide his own crops at will. In the end, Lin Qingqing decided to let Hua Ming make the plan.

Although Hua Ming is a little younger, he has a unique talent for this kind of thing.

Under the leadership of Lin Qingqing, the villagers of Jiangle Village began to open up new farmland. Every day, new land is reclaimed, and the enthusiasm of the villagers is also high.

However, it soon came to an event that kept them from rising.

"Repair the canal." Three simple words came out of Lin Qingqing's mouth.

"Alasβ€”β€”?" The villagers apparently did not expect Lin Qingqing to pull them to work as coolies.

"Don't think it's for me, it's for the irrigation of tomorrow's spring, I'm doing this for everyone's good." Lin Qingqing said solemnly.

However, everyone can understand this truth, but when they are really touched, the enthusiasm of each one is reduced to the limit.

Lin Qingqing looked at their expressions and guessed seven or eight points. The reclaimed land belongs to oneself, and every effort is a gain. However, the construction of the canal is public, and there is no way to get direct benefits.

Such a difference makes the villagers generally not interested in building the canal. In the end, she sighed and decided to go the old way.

Lin Qingqing took out the wooden sign that had been prepared long ago from his sleeve and waved it towards the villagers.

"Eat at a restaurant with 6% off." Lin Qingqing moved the conditions out again. And immediately, the enthusiasm of a group of people is like being beaten with chicken blood.

Last time, the villagers who got the small wooden plaque ate the sweetness and the limelight.

Although the dishes in the restaurant are expensive, after a 60% discount, the villagers can still afford to spend them. It's sweetness.

As for the limelight, that's because unconsciously, everyone treats it as a badge, representing a kind of honor. Especially when those townspeople look at them enviously, their self-esteem is greatly satisfied.

It is no exaggeration to say that in Jiangle Village, the most important thing is this small wooden sign.

So, in front of the bait thrown by Lin Qingqing, the enthusiasm of the villagers was ignited.

The villagers here were happy, but Lin Qingqing was a little depressed. In fact, he was ready to give money directly, but there were still some new people who had joined the village, and Lin Qingqing hoped that he could connect the people in the village with this kind of honorable thing.

In any case, taking advantage of the fact that trees are easy to cut down in winter, Lin Qingqing led the villagers to rebuild the canal. It's not the kind of diversion canal that brings water from the main canal to the fields, but the main canal that brings water down the mountain.

The amount of water conservancy projects is quite large, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to complete it before the beginning of spring.
