Chapter 22 The farm is over
Boss Tang listened to Qin Si's question, and was stunned, "Why are you asking this?" ”
"I used to see a method of fertilizing the field in the book, which is to start with this fertilization, but I don't remember it really, so I wanted to study it with my father, and it would be nice if I could increase the yield per mu of crops." Qin Si said seriously.
Boss Tang's first reaction was that his son-in-law was talking nonsense.
They don't have any way to fatten the fields with old crops, and they want to harvest more crops, so they see if the seeds are well chosen, whether the servants are careless, and whether God gives face.
"If you want to talk about fertilization, it is nothing more than gray manure and green manure, oh and manure, the manure of our chickens, ducks and pigs is used." Boss Tang didn't think too much, anyway, he looked at the crops, and he couldn't call his son-in-law Hu Lai.
Qin Si probably knows a little bit these days by relying on the memory of the original owner.
This green manure is a green plant, planted in the field and crops together to fertilize the field, some leaves can also be eaten, such as rao, broad beans, alfalfa, mung beans, flax, rape, and radishes.
Ash fertilizer is grass and wood ash, messy firewood and grass.
Manure is also called farmhouse fertilizer, people, cattle and horses, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese and sheep are all OK.
In addition, there are dregs of fertilizer, bean dregs, sugar dregs, sake lees, etc., but they are not as convenient and easy to use as those three.
There are also lime gypsum, but this is all inorganic fertilizer, in ancient times or organic fertilizer-based, after all, lime this thing has to be bought, the average farmer who can think of fertilization to buy, then the manure at home is pulled over to water the ground, what is the waste of that money.
Qin Si pestered Donald to ask more clearly, the ingredients, the ratio, and the fermentation time, and then went back to ponder.
If you can get lime, it's okay, if you can't get lime, you have to start with organic fertilizer, manure is also a meticulous job, and the content of phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium in fertilizer needs to be distinguished according to the type of crop.
Boss Tang couldn't help but be surprised when he saw his chattering appearance, and went to ask Tang Juan, Tang Juan was also confused, "I don't know, I only heard Xianggong say that he wanted to sell food, and I didn't hear about any fertilizer." ”
"But I believe in Xianggong, he said that if he can, he will definitely be able to."
There was not enough time, and Qin Si couldn't make the fertilizer he wanted, so he could only mix manure and inorganic fertilizer according to the fertilizer ratio that was most suitable for wheat, and told Donald, "Dad, believe me, this will definitely increase the yield per mu." ”
"It's just that time is tight, otherwise I can come up with a better fertilizer."
"If you don't feel at ease, how about trying it on my five acres of land now?"
He said this, if Donald didn't let him, he would be unkind, "Okay, let's try, anyway, this fertilizer can't burn the crops, so use it." ”
Qin Si laughed, "Dad can tell the good and the bad at a glance, and he is worthy of being an old farmer." ”
In the middle of October, he was so busy that his feet did not touch the ground, planting winter wheat and harvesting rice, Qin Si felt that muscle soreness and fatigue had become the norm, but his body was much stronger.
At least you don't have to take a car from the village to the city again, and it is not a problem to walk to the junction, unlike before when you walk there and you are paralyzed from exhaustion.
By the time he was completely busy with the work in the field, he counted the grain and handed it over to the local government granary, and it was already the end of October.
Xinghua made two winter clothes and sent them, and watched Qin Si change them, "It is said that people rely on clothes, Qin Xianggong is already handsome, this dress is even better-looking, and he really looks like a scholar." ”
After passing the exam, he can wear a long shirt, Tang Juan looked at Qin Si's appearance, and couldn't help but fantasize in his heart about what his father-in-law looked like in a long shirt, and his heart burned a little.
"I'm embarrassed to praise Sister Xinghua, thank you, Sister Xinghua." Qin Si touched the new clothes on his body with a smile and turned around twice as if showing off.
"Hey, what's this, then I'll go back, girl, you have something to call me again." Xinghua sat down and left.
Tang Juan also wants to make two middle clothes for Qin Si, such close-fitting clothes must be made by herself, "Xianggong thinks this color looks good?" ”
"It's good-looking, and Wanwan will also make a new outfit, right?" Qin Si pulled the man to sit down.
As soon as the grain and silver were in hand, every family had to buy some delicious rewards to reward their families for a year's hard work.
"I don't need it," Tang Juan shook his head, "I only made it the year before last, let's make the middle coat close-fitting, this fabric is easy to wear and comfortable, what do you think?" ”
"I think that Wanwan and I are all together, and the extra can sew pillowcases." Qin Si sat on the kang and continued to practice calligraphy.
When he was in modern times before, he was fortunate to see a champion's examination paper on the Internet, and the full text of more than 4,000 words was not smeared or corrected by a typo, which was a masterpiece.
If he wants to take the exam, a good hand is essential, and when he takes the exam, he must answer in the font prescribed by the imperial court, and pay attention to a neat and tidy order.
Tang Wan couldn't resist him, took the sewing basket to the other side and sat down, the husband and wife were busy with their own, but they were also comfortable.
"By the way, Wanwan, I want to go to the city tomorrow to sell lo-mei and try it, let's get two chickens and vegetarian dishes first, shall we?" Qin Si asked.
"Okay, then I'll go get the marinade now." Tang Juan put down the needle and thread in his hand and got up to go out.
She's pretty good at marinating now.
Because of the small amount of work, the main thing is to taste the workers on the dock, so there is no need to prepare anything special, chop the marinated chicken in advance and divide it into pieces, put it in a clay pot, and the husband and wife take a car to the city, rest their feet and go to the wharf.
"Brother Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time, yo is busy, then you are busy first, you are busy first." Qin Si greeted warmly.
Two truckloads came today, and the dock was busy, Tang Juan looked at it curiously, "Xianggong, what is that transporting?" ”
"It seems to be gunpowder, probably coming to the end of the year, and it was transported for artillery battles." Qin Si glanced at it a few times and said.
The old man next to him smiled when he heard this, "This little Langjun has poisonous eyes, and you can see it at a glance." ”
"The old man is polite, how many artillery workshops are there in our city?" Qin Si chatted with someone.
Artillery is all made by the government, and private civilians are not allowed to make it privately, so as to prevent people from harboring ill intentions.
"There are three of them, there are many villages nearby, and you are also from the village, right? If you are waiting to work here, you have to register first to see if there is a shortage of workers at the dock. The old man looked at the two of them.
"Come and do some small business," Qin Si said with a smile, seeing that Brother Yang was busy over there, he pulled Tang Juan over, "Brother Yang, remember if I don't." ”
"Ah...... Oh, oh remembered, you are from Xiaobeiwang, and you want to sell lo-mei, and you brought it today? Brother Yang wiped the sweat on his face with a sweat towel.
"It's time for dinner, I brought braised chicken and braised vegetables today, and I will give you big brothers a taste to see if it is right."
A group of people came around, and some of them brought steamed buns and immediately brought chopsticks, "I'll try it first." ”
Qin Si had already prepared, and fished a piece of chicken from the small crockpot and gave it to him, "Huh." ”
Surely not both chickens can be tasted, that's a loss, get some to try, and sell it on the spot.
