Chapter 106 Changing Species and Increasing Yield

Everything is going well, and all businesses are growing rapidly. Rufeng told me a message and made a suggestion at the same time, and I was not only shocked, but also admired this intelligent AI.

Because of the rotational farming method, the sowing and harvesting dates are staggered, and a large number of wheat seeds are required every day. I signed a contract with a seed company to cover my usage, which cost me a lot of money.

Unbeknownst to me, Rufeng did an experiment. It cultivated another 10 square meters of land and planted wheat, using seeds that were not bought from seed companies, but wheat harvested on the island.

He carefully observed the growth of wheat every day, the straw was thick, the root system was more developed, and the ears of wheat grew by 1/4. The yield has also increased by 1/4, and more importantly, the growth period is only 12 days, which is shortened by three days. The only drawback is that the wheat seed input is twice as high as before.

I was very excited about the news, and it was not a big deal to have more seeds with home-grown wheat. There is no need to buy seeds, and it will definitely save a lot of money. Without saying a word, from then on, he used his own wheat seeds to sow wheat, and no longer used seed companies.

Touching the analogy, the intelligence of intelligent AI is indeed extraordinary, and with the precedent of wheat, like the wind, it has begun to ponder corn again. The results were equally encouraging.

The mother yield of corn can be increased by 1/3. The growing period was shortened from 10 days to 8 days. Seed input increased by 150 per cent.

What else can I say? Use your own corn seeds, save money and have a good yield, and be happy.

Not only has the yield per mu of grain increased, but the harvest per unit time has also increased. The amount of work on the island is almost 50% more. If it had been placed in the past, it would have been as busy as wind and snow.

It's not that they feel tired, it's that time is limited, and they can't finish harvesting or sowing 24 hours a day. This is where the advantages of the automatic control system come into play.

Rufeng surprised me more than that. For those vegetables, it also adopts the method of keeping seeds, deliberately leaving a few points for them to grow to natural maturity.

I was shocked to see the cucumber seeds, which grew like a rolling pin, nearly a meter long, and gradually turned from dark green to light yellow when ripe. Only now did I know that cucumbers themselves are green, why are they called cucumbers.

When the melon is ripe, it is plucked like the wind, dried in the sun, and the seeds are taken. A cucumber seed is two centimeters long and very plump.

Replanting it back into the field, the stamina is super strong, the melons are many and evenly proportioned, and more importantly, the growth period is extended, and it can maintain a vigorous period of one month in the space, saving the trouble of frequent planting.

This is true not only of cucumbers, but also of beans, eggplants, tomatoes, green peppers, and chili peppers. Planting with the seeds of the island's vegetables will always prolong the growth period, the vines are thick, the root system is developed, and the yield of one vegetable can be higher than that of the previous two.

Inside and out, I saved a sum of money. The vegetable seed money is not much, which is negligible for me, the main thing is that I save time going back and forth to the seed company. If I don't want to add new varieties, I don't even need to go to the seed company.

In addition to transporting vegetables and fresh fish from the space to warehouse No. 1 in the morning for wholesale, I now prepare the trash fish necessary for production in advance for warehouse No. 2.

In the morning, I helped Rufeng transport two truckloads of eggs, and I didn't have to rush for other things.

Take a break in the evening, go to the rented factory, and transport the grain straw and green fodder out and store it first.

As for the transport team, I don't need to call to arrange it, they will come as soon as they arrive, waiting for them in the factory like wind and snow.

Twenty cars, just let them transport goods for me is enough for them to do their work, and they don't need to find any more work. I handed over the specific business of fleet management to Xie Qingsong, and I just had to call him if necessary, so I didn't have to contact a single driver.

It's my father who is struggling the hardest now, and I see him smiling every night, but I know he's the most tired.

My mother's dinner was quite sumptuous and said it was for us to have a good meal, but in fact I knew that she was more concerned about my father's health. Let him eat better, eat more, sleep and rest, so that he can do the next day's work in good spirits.

I see it in my eyes, and it hurts in my heart.

I've been worried about revealing the secrets of the space, and after running it for so long, nothing has happened. As long as the measures are taken properly, the secrecy can still be kept.

I thought of Han Xiaobai and called him and invited him to come and help me.

Han Xiaobai is still on his cousin's farm, and now it is the time of the farm, and he is very comfortable. In addition to spraying pesticides every day, it is to water the ground, and work for more than 10 hours, that is, I am a little panicked, and I am not tired, and I can take time to rest intermittently.

The treatment given to him by his cousin is okay, the salary has reached 6,000, although he has the desire to farm his own land in the future, he is now more happy to be content with the status quo.

In the past few months of going home, in addition to earning more money, there is also a greater gain.

After the second blind date, the woman is interested, and now it has been decided, and she plans to get married at the end of the year. The girlfriend revealed it intentionally or unintentionally, and what she liked was his income. For this reason, his father was anxious to arrange for him to build a new house.

"Come to me, and the salary will be 10,000 yuan for you."

My conditions are very tempting. You must know that those who can earn 10,000 yuan in Loess County are skilled mason masters. A small worker like Han Xiaobai, who is at the same level as me, is only about 5,000.

To my surprise, he didn't say yes right away, and asked me what kind of work I had arranged for him. I wanted him to take over from my father, so I told him to make a receipt record at the flour mill and do the simple business of verification.

"I'm not tired from work, but it will tie me to death in Loess County. You don't have a Sunday there, when can I visit my family, can I meet my girlfriend, that's a big deal. It's about my happy life. ”

I can work tirelessly every day, and employees are not required to work every day, and the necessary rest days must be enjoyed by them in accordance with the laws and regulations of the country.

The workers of the cannery are able to rest normally, and the clerks at the wholesale station are not scheduled to take a break according to the calendar of Saturday and Sunday, but they can take a break backwards, and all those who do not want to rest are paid overtime.

Regarding Han Xiaobai's request, I thought twice and agreed to him. He can rest at any time, guaranteeing him a normal holiday. In this way, there are new problems, and he may not be able to meet the needs of his work alone.

"It's not complicated to live, and you don't need a high degree of education, you can bring your girlfriend with you and get the same pay for the same work with you. But I have one request, you have to go to work separately. ”

I mean, when they go to work, one of them is in the flour mill and the other is maybe in the feed mill, or one is in the cattle farm and the other is in the sheep farm, and they also go to the paper mill, and they can't be together anyway. I promise that they can rest at the same time, and the little couple will stay and fly together, and there will be time to visit their families.

That's not to say I intentionally took them apart, it's all about being more productive.

Han Xiaobai said that he could come, but he had to ask his girlfriend's opinion first, after all, he couldn't make the decision on this matter, and clearly told me that if his girlfriend wanted to come, he would definitely come, and if his girlfriend didn't want to come, he wouldn't be sure.

I was patient and waited for his reply.
