Chapter 34 Planning the Farm
Nearly half of the things Wang Qiang bought today don't need to be taken to the second floor, just put them in a utility room on the first floor.
Therefore, the four siblings worked together, and after a while, they were sorted and placed.
Everyone went to wash up first, and then came to the large kitchen on the second floor, sat around the big wooden table, and happily ate rice noodles.
Because I want to take it home, there is no soup in the rice noodles, and the rice noodles kept warm in the large casserole are still hot, and there is no paste, and the taste remains the same.
But there is a boiled fish soup at home, and a little green onion and ginger is put on it, and it tastes delicious.
The four siblings ate rice noodles for lunch, Wanjun went to clean up her things, and Wanyu and Wanling, two little girls, were fiddling with a few puppies.
They first fed the big yellow dog and the puppy, and then went to bathe the puppy.
The puppies that I just bought are basically dirty, so you have to wash their fur with soap and disinfect them with soapy water by the way, otherwise there will be fleas nine times out of ten.
It took a few pots of warm water for the two little girls to clean the four puppies and then dry their hair.
The big yellow dog Ah Cai came over to join in the fun, it knew that this was his future wife, so he stayed by their side and guarded it dutifully.
Now the puppy is still alive, and it will take a few days to raise it before it will consider its new home as its home.
Wang Qiang ate rice noodles, sat in the large living room and rested for a while, got up and took the pig killing knife, boning knife and other tools, went to the well near the first floor, and began to deal with the big wild boar left at home.
After the big wild boar was carried home by him, he had already mended the knife and bled out.
If you want to get rid of the fishy smell of wild boar, you must remove all the blood and water remaining in the wild boar to make it delicious.
It took him about an hour to finish processing the big boar and turning it into two large pots of bacon ingredients and one pot of ingredients to be eaten as soon as possible.
Nowadays, there is no refrigerator or freezer at home, which is really inconvenient, and even in winter, fresh meat cannot be stored for long.
Although the quality of the wild boar meat is very good and the weather is relatively cold, it can only be kept fresh for two or three days.
If it snows and the mountains freeze, then it's easy to get an ice cellar out, which is enough to preserve for a long time.
As for buying saltpeter to make ice?
It's not that it doesn't work, it's that it's not necessary.
The weather is so cold, isn't it delicious to get more bacon to eat?
At the end of next summer, Jiangbei Village will be electrified, and Wang Qiang said that he would also complete the electrical appliances that he could buy in the tea city.
When the time comes, you will be able to live a truly comfortable and good life.
By the time Wang Qiang finished marinating the bacon and seasoning the remaining large pot of ingredients, it was already half past three in the afternoon.
It's winter now, and I can't transplant the bamboo forest, and the main thing left is to open up the wasteland.
But before he opened up the land, he planned to build a tall gatehouse at the exit of his field, that is, on the side of his house with the stone arch bridge he had built.
After the gatehouse is built, the installation of two large wooden doors, coupled with the barrier of the completed large ditch, can make the site where the house is located have preliminary safety protection measures.
Although this kind of primary protection is basically useless, it can clearly tell the visitor that if you want to come in, you must knock on the door first, otherwise you will enter the country illegally.
If you want to be truly protected, you have to wait until next spring to transplant the bamboo forests around your own fields and forests, and when they grow into a large circle of tall bamboo walls, you can isolate your own fields and forests from the outside world.
At that time, his own ecological farm was just taking shape.
It took Wang Qiang five days to build a large gatehouse, because it was to be as strong and elaborate as possible.
The main material is also stone quarried in the wasteland of the house.
The large gatehouse that has been built is like the ancient city gatehouse, which is very simple and beautiful.
The two large stone pillars on the side are one meter square and five meters high, and the width of the passage in the gatehouse is six meters, which is the same as the width of the stone arch bridge outside the gatehouse.
Two large pillars of tall stone, made of polished bluestone blocks and equipped with some cement mortar, are tightly combined with masonry.
The top of the gate tower is a solid wood building, the material is very thick, finely carved, there are buckets at the four corners, and the eaves are carved into the appearance of birds and beasts, which looks lifelike, very strong and good-looking.
The large double-opening wooden door under the main gate is very thick and heavy, so it is designed as a track at the bottom, and the opening and closing of the gate is also a push-pull type.
Because the bluestone track is polished very smooth, it is level with the bluestone slab floor paved under the gatehouse, so the switch is very slippery and labor-saving.
Two carved thick wooden doors, adding up to nearly 100 pounds, after closing, you can't see a single gap from the outside, it is natural, which makes people shocked.
Since then, in addition to climbing over the wide and deep ditch of his house, whoever wants to come in in the future will have to call the door.
Wang Qiang deliberately built a beautiful large kennel with stone and solid wood on the side of the big stone pillar of the gate tower.
When the four earth dogs grew up and were able to take care of the house, they let the big yellow dog Ah Cai live here, and when someone came, they barked a few times.
This purpose-built kennel is not small, and Wang Qiang built it according to the same model as building a house.
It is a small house with an area of nine square meters and a height of two meters, and the style is also very beautiful.
At least it looks much better and sturdy than the brick bungalows in the city now.
Most of the urban bungalows in Chacheng are built with prefabricated cement slabs and red bricks, and the quality is really not good, let alone good-looking.
"Brother, the gate of our house is so big, it's so beautiful!"
"It looks like the city gate tower mentioned in the book."
"The top of this gate building looks even more beautiful than the roof of the big villa at home, and the gate is better and bigger than the one at home." ……
On the day of the official completion of the gate building, three little girls gathered around, one by one, they were full of praise, and they were very excited to open and close the big wooden door to play.
There are two sturdy handles inside and outside the big wooden door, and with the lion statue on the wooden door, it is like a pull ring bitten by the lion's mouth, which is powerful and beautiful.
On the day of the completion of the gate tower, a large number of villagers once again attracted onlookers.
Everyone was surprised, but there were also some surprises.
After all, with Wang Qiang's tossing energy, there are too many whimsical ideas, even if he makes something unusual, everyone is a little accustomed to it.
……
After getting the gate of his future villa, Wang Qiang then began to plan and build chicken farms, pig farms, duck farms, and goose farms.
Before these can be built, an artificial lake must be planned.
For these animals and poultry to grow healthily, it is important to have an artificial lake of the right size.
In real ecological farming, the most important thing is to have a large flowing water source, which can keep the environment clean, so that those livestock and poultry who like to play in the water have enough places to play in the water.
In this way, we can ensure that the free-range livestock and poultry are strong and the meat is delicious.
This artificial lake, Wang Qiang planned to be about 15 acres, no matter how big it is, there is no need, and the amount of excavation is too large.
Now there is no excavator rental in the county, and there is no trace of the eight characters from the advent of the era of mechanized construction.
The excavation of the artificial lake can be slowed down, but the pig house and pigsty must be carried out as soon as possible.
However, the amount of work on this artificial lake is too large, and he plans to spend about 20 days to build this envisioned artificial lake.
He hadn't forgotten that if he didn't catch those wild boars in the nearby mountains, they would soon be caught by people starting next year.
Even in the five days of building the gatehouse, he still had to go into the mountains every morning to hunt two big wild boars and come back, load them on a tricycle, cover them with oilcloth, and pull them to the Mazi Restaurant in the city to exchange money.
It's only been five days, and the family's savings have increased by more than 4,000 yuan.
In this era, the income of about 800 yuan a day is already very awesome.
He remembered that the price of land in the city was very cheap at this time, less than one dollar per square meter.
Yes, you heard it right, it's less than a dollar and a square meter, and it's still the land price on both sides of the main street in the county, not the house price.
The land on both sides of the street that is not the main street costs only five cents to eight cents a square meter.
Two years later, it will rise to 50,000 yuan per mu.
After the 90s, the land in the city needed to be auctioned or bought through the back door.
The strange situation that land prices are cheaper than house prices will only happen in the past two years.
Wang Qiang didn't know if this was the case in other counties, anyway, it was like this in Chacheng County.
However, if you want to successfully acquire a large piece of land, you must start construction immediately, and there is a time limit for the completion period, otherwise it will not be developed, and the county has the right to take it back.
Wang Qiang thought about it and felt that if he wanted to live a truly comfortable life in the future, it was best to set up a company and have no worries in the future.
Since 1984, the reform and opening up has basically been completely finalized, and the tea city has set up a special investment promotion office for this purpose to attract investment everywhere.
Whether it is a private company or a joint venture company, they can get some preferential policies, among which foreign joint ventures are the most popular.
There are so many benefits to registering a company.
You can ask for a bodyguard, a security guard, a lawyer, and when you go out, let the bodyguard, the security guard clear the way for you.
When someone comes to find trouble for him, he directly calls a lawyer to sue him, or asks the security guards to subdue them and then call the police to arrest them.........
As long as your company is not bankrupt and not easy to own, you will have a layer of tiger skin on your body, which is enough to deter the average young person.
This is very important for him to legally and reasonably own a large ecological farm in the future.
In the future, the large farm will be assigned to its own company's breeding base, which will undoubtedly reduce too much trouble.
