Chapter 191: Oil and Water
Especially after Ning Tian'er got married, she returned to the door three times and told Ning Youzhi and Yang what her mother-in-law had done, but Yang was so angry that she didn't rush out and pointed at Liu Hongrui and scolded.
However, this matter has nothing to do with Liu Hongrui after all.
It's all that Tao is too shameless, and he actually hides this kind of dirty careful thoughts.
Ning Youzhi called his daughter aside, and then taught her carefully, so that her daughter knew how to fight wits and courage with her mother-in-law Tao.
After Ning Pengpeng came home after drinking the wine, she put all her thoughts in the field, and she followed Ning Lao Er to the field almost every day to see the growth of rape flowers and milk vetch.
The year passed quickly, and the snow gradually stopped.
When it didn't snow at all, Ning Pengpeng asked Ning Lao Er to tear down the bamboo shed in the rape field.
These things can continue to be used again and again next year anyway, so you don't have to worry about wasting them.
As the days passed, the rape flowers all bloomed yellow, like hydrangeas.
And the milk vetch also blooms with purple flowers, which is very beautiful at a glance.
Ning Pengpeng saw that the milk vetch was blooming, so he called Ning Lao Er and ploughed all the fields planted with milk vetch.
Bury all these long, vigorous milk vetch in the ground and turn them into fertilizer.
Then, Ning Peng asked Ning Lao Er to soak the excellent seeds that he had found before that were particularly full and harvested.
Then find another piece of land, irrigate well, flatten, and sprinkle the soaked seeds in the field for seedlings, which can greatly improve the probability of seed germination.
Because although Ning Laosan brought back a lot of rapeseed seeds, it was not enough to plant so many acres of land in her village.
Therefore, those vacant lands also let Ning Peng Peng order them to go down, and let Sun Zhuang lead people to turn over the land first.
Then the ridges were watered, because they had been watering almost a month earlier, and the other people around who had been enjoying the river were very curious.
However, it is really a good thing not to be crowded into a pile, which is really good for the people around you.
After all, who doesn't lack water when planting rice?
This Zhuangzi is willing to irrigate a month earlier, and for them, they must raise their hands and feet in favor.
After the seedlings were raised, Ning Laosan and Ning Laosi took the caravan and prepared to set off again!
This time, it was still accompanied by Qing Niang, but there were several more people, and even several more carriages.
After sending the third and fourth children away, Ning Pengpeng went to Zhuangzi and watched Sun Zhuangtou pull up the seedlings, and then transport them to the fields that had been irrigated before to start planting seedlings.
Seeing that the group of people below were busy, Sun Zhuangtou wanted to say, wouldn't planting so early have an impact on the yield of grain?
It's just that thinking of the slap in the face last year, Sun Zhuangtou felt that it was better to be a dumb person after all.
After planting the seedlings that had been raised a month in advance, Ning Pengpeng raised another batch.
After the rapeseed is harvested, the field still needs to be ploughed before growing grain.
In addition, after being sprinkled with milk vetch, it was ploughed and replanted with rice.
Ning Lao Er marked all the fields in these three situations, just to facilitate the verification of output in the future.
It's just that Ning Lao Er doesn't know one thing yet, Ning Pengpeng wants to try to see if he can grow a second crop of rice here.
If the rice could have been planted a month earlier, it would have matured much earlier than before.
In that case, when the first batch of rice planted can be harvested in July, then we can really try to plant the second crop when the harvest is finished in July.
In October, the second crop of rice can be harvested.
A piece of land, planted twice.
Even if it is as before, there are only more than 200 catties of grain per acre of land, and if it is planted in two seasons, it is equivalent to doubling the grain.
It's exciting to think about.
This is not even combined with the bonus of frequent irrigation and planting milk vetch, if it reaches more than 300 or 400 per mu, if it is double seasoned, then there must be no 600 or 800 catties of grain harvest?
If double-cropping rice can really be planted, at least the situation of the poor here not being able to eat, there will definitely be no more!
After planting the rice, within a month, all the rape flowers had seeds!
The bag of rapeseed that Ning Laosan gave her can plant about thirty acres of land.
Therefore, regardless of whether the yield of these rapeseed planted this year is high or not, Ning Pengpeng is ready to leave all the rapeseed and wait for the end of the year to continue planting.
In this way, the yield of the cultivation can be expanded.
After all, most of the oil that can be eaten now is flax oil, that is, flaxseed oil.
There are also radish seed oil and tea seed oil, rapeseed oil in the south of the Yangtze River, Anzhen here, the rape flowers planted by Ning Pengpeng, and those people in Zhuangzi have seen this flower for the first time.
In addition to these oils, there is lard!
Oil prices are not cheap, so many people lack oil and water.
One acre of rape flowers can produce more than 300 catties of rapeseed, and 100 catties of rapeseed can squeeze about 40 catties of oil.
In other words, one acre of land can squeeze out about 120 catties of oil.
As long as 100 acres of land are allocated every year to plant this rapeseed oil, there will be more than 10,000 catties of oil a year.
After selling these rapeseed oils alone, not only can he feed the people in Zhuangzi, but Ning Pengpeng can also earn a lot of silver.
The remaining fields, if planted with double-cropping rice, are counted as the least in a year, and there are 600 catties of land per acre.
One hundred acres is 60,000 catties, and if you have 500 acres of land, hey, it's exciting to think about!
In May, the rapeseed was ripe, and Ning Pengpeng asked people to speed up the harvest.
After all, these rapeseeds will crack in situ after maturity, so Ning Peng will have to harvest a lot less rapeseed.
These rapeseeds, Ning Peng Peng uses the boiling method.
Prepare two pots, crush these rapeseeds, put them in the pot and add water to boil until they boil, and the layer floating on them is oil!
Use a spoon to scoop up the oil from the least layer of noodles and pour it into another pot, in order to prevent the scooped oil from carrying water, so you have to slowly use the other pot and boil the water under slow heat, and you can do it!
However, the oil boiled in this way is not as good as the oil yield of the oil pressed by the oil press after frying.
Shi Jiang was very pleased that 100 catties of rapeseed could produce 40 catties of oil.
After the first season of rice was harvested, it was obvious that the yield of those fields that had been planted with milk vetch was dozens of catties more than that of other fields without milk vetch.
"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"
About twenty days before the first season of rice can be harvested, Ning Pengpeng began to raise seedlings!
So, as soon as the first crop of rice is harvested, the ground is flattened, and all the newly raised seedlings are quickly planted.
In this season alone, the highest yield per mu has reached 380 catties.
Even in those fields without milk vetch, there are three hundred and twenty or thirty catties per mu.
