The two walked around the mountain, discussed the matter of finding Xie Jiang, and talked about the sheep grass that could be planted.

I don't know other places, but at least in the area of Guanzhou Mansion, there should be goats, and there are no sheep, after all, their goats are brought by Xie Jiang from all over Guanzhou Mansion.

Goat's milk is not as good as sheep's milk, if you can get some sheep, you can raise more, goats, you can raise them for meat or sell them, fifty or sixty are enough.

Since they are all sheep, the things they eat should be about the same, and the more they raise, the more they must eat.

Although I have never heard of planting sheep grass, but just because I haven't heard of it doesn't mean that I can't do it, and when they found the sheep, the two had already dug up a lot of fresh weeds.

In order not to be confused, they were all dug in plants, and the sheep were probably full by this time, and were lying down and sleeping in the shade of the trees.

The leading goat, with a bell around his neck, was tied with a long rope and tied to a tree, and there was a lot of tender grass around him, and now he was also gnawed bald.

As long as the leader is there, the other goats won't run far.

Li Changhui shouted, all the sheep stood up in fright, and the two of them threw the grass they dug to various places, most of which were what the uncle had just said.

The bitter herbs and dandelions were eaten quickly, and there were some tender vines, and the leaves on them were also gnawed off, while the thatch was not eaten, and at most a few sheep gave up after two bites.

It's really a picky eater, not as easy to feed as a cow.

"There are still not enough people to do the work, so it's best to dig up the areas that have been gnawed by the sheep and sprinkle some seeds of the weeds they love to eat, and it won't be long before they can grow again."

Li Changhui looked around, this hillside is very gentle, not to mention stocking, even planting crops is also very suitable, reclaimed and planted with forage, you can raise a lot of cattle and sheep.

Lin He touched his chin and pondered: "Actually, if you don't think it's a waste, wheat seedlings, buckwheat seedlings and tender seedlings of corn and sorghum can also be fed to sheep and cattle." ”

Their large mountainous area can be developed quite a small area, and they do not rely on growing food to support their families.

On the contrary, growing food, in addition to filling the stomach, can not earn a few dollars.

And they developed all this large area, recruited one or two hundred people to work, not to mention feeding one or two hundred families, it was almost the same.

Li Changhui naturally has no opinion: "It's okay, there's nothing to eat after winter, a variety of cattle, sheep and pigs to eat, in fact, you can also grow vegetables, grow fast, cabbage, radish, thickskin cabbage, greens, etc., in winter, you can do it." ”

While talking, the two walked around the neighborhood, these two mountains are too big, and there are hundreds of acres of land, just the current fifty or sixty people, just to open up the wasteland, it is estimated that it will be a long time to be busy.

"Let's find some more." Li Changhui looked at a large area of barren mountains: "Just release the news and find someone to open up the wasteland, and now the people continue to clean up the paddy fields and plant seedlings." ”

Lin He frowned slightly: "There are so many people, it's too troublesome to cook, don't you have to find more cooking?" ”

"Give more money every day for them to eat at home, or bring their own food."

For three dollars, you can buy more than a pound of brown rice, in exchange for eating at home, which is completely cost-effective.

Li Changhui said: "First clean up all the wasteland, and when the seedlings are planted, many people's cattle will be idle, and then they can plough the land." ”

"By the way, it's better to dig the pond while there is a lot of rain in the summer, what do you think?"

Lin He originally planned to work slowly every day with fifty or sixty people, and there was always a time to clean up all the fields.

But the recent progress of this work has made her realize the reality.

Not only do you have to open up the wasteland, but you also have to sow seeds, and in the summer, you have to water every once in a while, and fifty or sixty people are really not enough.

Just like now, the paddy fields have not been fully cleaned up, and the water has to be released and turned off, and it is only less than ten acres.

At most, the seedlings will be planted in half a month, even if there are many people, it can be completely done within five days of planting seedlings.

But after that, the sweet potato vines will be planted in June, which is less than a month, and the wasteland will continue to be cultivated, and during this time, the corn and sorghum must be watered frequently, and the pigs, cattle and sheep will be fed.

By the way, there are also ponds that can't wait, ducks and geese are encircled by the river every day, and eggs are laid by the river, so they must dig the pond as soon as possible and build duck sheds and goose sheds so that they can lay eggs in the nest.

There are also rabbits, there are not many rabbits now, only fifty adult female rabbits, not that I don't want so many, but these rabbits, almost all of them were caught in the mountains and slowly bred.

Lin He pondered, many of them are almost inbred, although the problem is not big, but since it has changed places, let's get some hares on the mountains here.

It's just that I've been very busy recently, and Li Changhui hasn't had time to go to the mountain.

So up to now, all but a few of the fifty female rabbits have been pregnant when they were in town.

Tomorrow Li Changhui will go hunting in the mountains, and then the rabbits will be very good at breeding, and people will be busy every day.

Thinking about it here and outside, even if these few people take care of hundreds of acres of crops in their spare time, it is not enough, let alone when the farm is busy.

In this way, Li Changhui's proposal is even more tempting.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Li Changhui's method was good: "It seems that you still have to find a special manager, and don't care about anything else, just watch everyone, and don't leave the cheater in the field." ”

They don't have time to watch over the people who work every day, but they can't let the people who work there be those who are cheating and tricky.

If someone starts and everyone finds that they don't have to be so serious to get paid, in the end, everyone will be confused, and their farm will not be able to go on well?

"Looking for someone," Li Changhui bowed: "It is indeed necessary to find someone." ”

However, it is not easy to find someone you trust for a while.

Speaking of this, the two suddenly glanced at each other and said in unison: "Li Changqiang? ”

Lin He smiled and bent the corners of his eyes: "Brother Hui, it seems that we want to go together." ”

Li Changhui nodded with a smile: "Changqiang has a simple and honest personality, and he also has a little bit of admitting death, although he doesn't know much about flexibility, but he knows a lot about crops, and he has experience, so he is indeed very suitable." ”

Lin He was still a little worried: "But if you leave Yonghe Town, I don't know if he is willing or not." ”

At this point, Li Changhui is very confident.

"Probably not, even if he doesn't dare to come, Changsheng will definitely persuade him to come, I'll write a letter when I go back, and let someone bring him back in the afternoon, if you come, you can bring your younger siblings and nephews and nieces over together."

Fortunately, Lin He persuaded a few words, it was okay to write a letter, and asked him to arrange the town first, and it was best to find a suitable person to take over first.

It's really said that the wind is the rain, and the matter is almost settled.

Of course, whether he will come or not depends on Li Changqiang receiving the letter.
