It was Shen Yunxi who bought rice today. At night, she secretly changed the rice, and no one noticed.

Now there are only three cows in the village, so a total of three plows were bought. There were 15 households, 15 shovels, 15 hoes, 15 sickles, and all the silver was spent.

After loading the truck, the village chief took the young and middle-aged people in the village to the barren mountains to reclaim the wasteland.

Women are not allowed to do heavy work, but they can work together to mow and weed and clear wasteland.

Shen Yunxi and Zheng Guizhen also followed.

After cutting the grass on the hillside, the villagers began to plow the ground with their oxen, plucking all the grass roots and stems on the ground, and the ground became soft.

Then build terraces and ridges according to the topography.

There is a small stream that flows down from the mountain. A ditch can be dug directly to divert water, and then it can flow into the field.

Shen Yunxi was very distressed when he saw that the village chief led people to scatter the seeds directly in the terraced fields.

In modern scientific planting methods, it is best to soak these seeds for two days before raising seedlings and then transplanting.

Not only is it good for subsequent weeding and management, but it is also good for increasing yields due to good ventilation.

Obviously, there is a scientific planting method, but Shen Yunxi doesn't know what to say.

Because even experienced farmers in the south did not know about this method of cultivation.

She suddenly said it, and no one believed her.

Fortunately, these rice seeds are resistant to growing. Although the yield will be affected, there should also be a good yield.

There is a thick layer of guano in the forest. Some people just scatter bird droppings on the ground.

Shen Yunxi hurriedly stopped him. "These bird droppings are used to make fertilizer along with some dead leaves, which is more fertile."

Tian Ergou said: "But the old local farmer said that he could pour dung on the turned soil and pour water into the ground. The land will become damp and there should not be too much water in the ground. Then he can sow the rice. But the old farmer also said that he could not put too much manure in the soil, because too much would damage the seeds. ”

Tian Cun also nodded repeatedly: "When we bought iron plows, we talked to those old farmers who also bought iron plows, and they said the same thing."

When it comes to farming, Tamura Chief and Tian Ergou have absolute authority in the village. Shen Yunxi couldn't say anything.

In this case, Shen Yunxi would not argue. We'll talk about that later.

"Then listen to the old peasant!" Shen Yunxi replied, "But I dug up some sweet potatoes in the dense forest on the other side of the Qingmei River. They are delicious. I'm going to find a place to plant them. If the yield is high, I will give you some seeds for free. ”

Old people with children, half-grown children digging wild vegetables or fishing by the river.

A man has worked hard all day and does not have enough food.

Tian was very unhappy. He shouted to the village chief, "Chief, you see, we reclaim the wasteland from morning till night. The food I make now is wild vegetables. How can we work hard?"

Tamura looked at what everyone was eating. He didn't feel well fed either. He looked at Yang Dacui, who was in charge of cooking. "Da Cui, don't you have anything to eat?"

Yang Dacui sighed: "We don't have much food left. For the last two days, we ate food from me and Youqing's family, but we were running out of food. We ask others for food, but they won't give it to us. I can't go to someone's house and grab food, can I?"

Yang Dacui was very angry today. Those who had food to eat were reluctant to take it out, so they still ate with the villagers.

When Tamura heard this, his forehead was bruised, and he was so angry. "Who are these people? They eat together and bring no food. Tian Toutou, you still have something to eat. Why don't you take it out?"
