There are some small science leaflets on hybrid rice seedlings here at the seed station, and Changgui asked for a copy and asked about rice seedlings.

"For the specific operation, you have to go back and ask the experienced old farmers in your brigade. Some of their methods are no worse than those in this manual, but more practical. "Although there are technicians in the seed station, and they are also professional and technical personnel who graduated from agricultural schools, they are rich in theoretical knowledge and lack of practical experience, so if they really go to farming, they are not as good as the old farmers in the village.

Changgui suddenly felt that he was really useless, he was a little embarrassed by the face of a reborn person, he didn't know anything, and even food and clothing were so difficult.

After buying the grain seeds, Changgui walked around the street to see if he could find some business opportunities.

There are people selling dried fish larvae in the bazaar, and the price is not very expensive, a few cents a tael, that is, a few yuan a catty, but people's dried fish larvae are very delicious fish larvae. Wax loaches can't be sold at all.

Changgui's idea of selling loaches for money really doesn't work. The city dwellers on the provincial side may have more purchasing power than the quasi-city dwellers on the Jinshi Bridge, but they will also be more picky. The loaches may not fool them.

"It seems that if you want to make money, you have to look at Shi Er."

Changgui also has no craftsmanship and little capital, so it is not so easy to make money in Jinshiqiao.

It's not that there is no way to make money. At this point in time, it should be more profitable to run a brick factory. However, to set up a brick factory, first, it requires a large amount of capital, and second, it is necessary to get coal. Coal is not easy to do now. Even if you can get coal, Changgui can't get the money to run a brick factory.

Changgui remembered that in the previous life, someone in Xuefeng Village set up a brick factory, and he should have made a lot of money, but for the people in Xuefeng Village, he was also very lacking in morality. Mining clay in Xuefeng Village, digging I don't know how many big pits.

Later, after a heavy rainstorm, the pits were filled with water. There was a child in the village who fell into a puddle and drowned one.

"Oh, it's hard." Changgui sighed.

Back at home, Changgui went to find the cheap eldest brother Zhang Changfu and asked about the seedlings.

"I'll come over in the evening to give you a bud. I thought you weren't going to plant late rice. Zhang Changfu also has some hatred for this uncompetitive brother.

"Didn't you get a little drunk before? I won't drink anymore. This field has to be planted well, otherwise the stomach will not be full. "Changgui is now a human being in two lives, and the thickness of his face is extraordinary.

"Don't be grim, if it weren't for Zong Qiu's pity, I wouldn't have bothered to care about you. They are all fathers, and they are not mature at all. Take Zong Qiu well in the future, that child will definitely be better than you when he grows up. Zhang Changfu said.

When the rice is just harvested, it will sprout if you are not careful. But if you buy rice seeds that want to germinate, it's not so easy.

Freshly harvested rice has a higher moisture content and higher vigor, and as long as the temperature and humidity are suitable, it will germinate immediately. However, after the rice seeds are harvested, dried in the sun, and then stored for at least half a year, the rice has entered a dormant state.

Therefore, first of all, we have to let the rice seeds re-hydrate and reawaken. Soak the seeds first, and then also apply the appropriate temperature. The temperature and humidity are properly controlled, and the rice sprouts quickly.

Zhang Changfu came to Changgui's house in the evening and arranged for Changgui to prepare one by one. He only said but didn't move, and let Changgui do it himself, and he just stared at it. Changgui didn't do well, and immediately scolded: "The water is so hot, are you going to cook this rice seed and eat it?" Try it with your hands, it's not very hot. Can your hands go down to your water? ”

Changgui has a request for others, and he doesn't care about the words of his eldest brother at all.

"Zong Qiu, you go and get two catties of rice wine. Uncle will have dinner at our house later. Changgui felt a little embarrassed by being scolded, which affected his tall image in front of Zong Qiu in the future.

"Zong Qiu, don't drink. This drunkard is not allowed to drink in the future. If he dares to beat you, you come and tell Uncle to see if Uncle doesn't beat him flat! Zhang Changfu said.

"Uncle, did you beat my dad to win?" Zong Qiu felt that there was no play. Ma Yongxing didn't win.

Zhang Changfu said disdainfully: "Since I was a child, your father has never won against me, and every time he is beaten by me on the ground." ”

"Brother, why are you talking to children about this?" Changgui said helplessly.

"Don't be long-winded. Soak the grain seeds in water! While the water is still hot, this is a critical period. Zhang Changfu said.

"By the way, you have to prepare the seedling field tomorrow, and once the rice seed has sprouted, it will be planted in the seedling field." Zhang Changfu added.

Changguiliu has a small rice field that is ready to be used as a rice field, but this small rice field is now overgrown with weeds, and the weeds have to be cleaned up. Plow it again.

The seedling field is a few fields, and it is troublesome to take the oxen to it, and you can only dig it by hand without oxen ploughing.

Because the drunkard father didn't care about anything at all before, and the cattle shared with several farmers were not well taken care of. Every time it is Changgui's turn to herd cattle, Changgui doesn't say anything about herding cattle when he goes home late, and many times, he directly forgets about herding cattle. Everyone has an opinion about Changgui. even threatened not to use cattle for a long time.

Changgui doesn't know how to plow the fields, he uses oxen to plow the fields, and he has to beg others not to talk to a few cooperative farmers. So, early the next morning, Changgui simply picked up his head and went to the field.

The paddy fields are waterlogged all year round, and the soil is soaked to a thin soak, making it much easier to dig than to dig up dry land.

Zong Qiu carried a bamboo basket and followed behind Changgui.

Now there are a lot of loaches in the field, and when you plow the field, you can turn out a lot of loaches.

"The water in the fields is very deep, and even loaches are not easy to catch. You might as well put the fish cage in it. Changgui said.

"Our ridges have long been emptied by yellow eels, and the fields are all dry." Zong Qiu said.

Whether it's the previous drunkard father or the Changgui after rebirth, it seems that he has never been in the field well. Others carry hoes to the fields early in the morning to check the water, and immediately fill the loopholes when they find the leaks.

When Changgui came to the seedling field, he found that there was not a drop of water in the field, and the soil in the field was even slightly forked. The part of the rice field is overgrown with weeds.

"It's a real headache." Changgui stroked his forehead.

Dry fields are much more laborious to dig than paddy fields, but they are more rewarding. There are a lot of loach eels, and there are many holes in the ridges, and the largest one is three fingers thick.

This wild yellow eel is very ferocious, and when it is caught, it sticks out its head directly and opens its mouth to bite. was choked by Changgui's two fingers, and he couldn't move.

It was only when the eel was a little dying that it was thrown into the bamboo basket.

"Dad, what do you want the eel for? It's not tasty at all. Zong Qiu said with some disgust.

"You know. In the future, yellow eels will be much more expensive than loaches. Loach eels will be much more expensive than fish in the future. Where do we rural people know what good things to eat! Changgui said.

"How do you know?" Zong Qiu didn't believe it.

"Junwu said that people in the city love to eat loach eel." Changgui had no choice but to pull Wang Junwu over to block the bullet.

"Dad, if we sell loaches and eels to the city, can we sell them for money?" Zong Qiu asked.

"Of course, it can be sold for money, but Jinshiqiao can't afford to sell it at a price, so it has to be sold to the provincial capital. It can be sold to the provincial capital for a long distance, with too little, can not guarantee the road expenses, sell too much, afraid of dying on the road. It's not worth anything if you die. Changgui said.

"It would be nice if Jinshi Bridge were a provincial capital." Zong Qiu said regretfully.

"You little kid don't think about making money, making money is made by adults." Changgui said.

Although the seedling field is a little dry, digging the soil is not very tiring, mainly because from time to time the loach yellow eel can be turned out of the soil. It can be said to be a combination of work and rest.

It took another day for Changgui to tidy up the seedling field, which can be regarded as a lot of effort.

Changgui's quarrying fungus plan can only be pushed back again and again.

After the field was dug up, new problems came again.

The water in the canal is dry, and Changgui can't put water.

"People in the irrigation area say that the water should be stored now to ensure that after the early rice is harvested, the late rice can be planted in time." The secretary of the brigade, Luo Wei, got more accurate information from Changgui.

"Then what should I do if my late rice seedlings haven't fallen yet?" Changgui was a little worried.

"Then there is no way, there are often people in the canal a few days ago, and you can also prepare the seedling field." Luo Wei said.

There was no water in the canal, and Changgui could not sit back and wait for the water to come, so he had to use a bucket to carry water from a nearby pond to the rice fields.

A load of water was poured into a rice field with a few points, and there was really no shadow in sight. But now there is no other way, late rice is the key to reversing the food and clothing of the two fathers and sons.

I don't know how many times I ran back and forth, but I finally accumulated some water in the rice field.

Zhang Changfu guided the germination of rice seeds very well, and the germination rate of cereals was not low, and all the cereals that had been soaked the night before had sprouts. Now that the seedlings are ready, Changgui immediately sprinkles the grain seeds.

This time, the weather has been clear, the temperature is getting higher and hotter.

Zhang Chaoshan's big yellow dog was lying on his stomach under the big locust tree in Sunguping, his tongue sticking out and wilting.

The crops in the vegetable patch are also wilting.

"The sun is as poisonous as fire, and the crops in the field are dried up! If this continues, there will be no food to eat this fall. ”

"It's nothing if you don't have food to eat, I'm afraid you don't have anything to eat. The work is so bad, the reservoir is dry, the late rice cannot be planted, and this year's annual scene is over. ”
