The people of Lijia Village are not interested in the 'columbus seeder'.

Although they didn't say it explicitly, it could be seen from their expressions.

"County Master."

Seeing that it was a little cold, the village chief Li Fu was afraid that Chen Gengnian would not be able to come to the stage, so he hesitated: "Why don't you try it in my field first?" ”

Next to her, Zhang Ahua, who spoke one step later, pouted.

She had inexplicable trust in the county magistrate, and naturally wanted to try the three-legged car, but since the village chief spoke first, Zhang Ahua didn't say anything more.

Of course, Zhang Ahua knew what the village chief had in mind.

Li Fu has a sow at home who is about to give birth, and he wants to be close to the county master, and let the county master help take care of his pigs when the time comes.

In fact, Zhang Ahua also wanted to ask the county magistrate how to raise pigs.

She thinks that the county magistrate will definitely not only deliver sows, but also be a good hand at raising pigs.

It's just that I haven't found the right opportunity to ask for advice.

Chen Gengnian didn't know the careful thinking of these two people.

Hearing Li Fu's words, he smiled and said, "Okay, then go to your field." I remember that you had a ploughing ox at home, and you just poured the seeds into the cocoon and you could start sowing the seeds. ”

Just sowing a seed, and you have to use cows?

The people of Lijia Village muttered in their hearts.

Li Fu was also a little stunned.

But he quickly adjusted his expression and said, "Wait a minute, the county master, I'll let the mother-in-law of the family prepare." ”

Chen Gengnian is not a fool, and it can be seen that everyone is not enthusiastic about the columbium planter.

But he is not prepared to explain either.

Although the seeds are sprinkled quickly, the seeds float on the surface of the soil and can be easily damaged by the sun.

Even if it is not sunburned and barely germinates, it will not be able to absorb enough soil nutrients, and if the nutrients are insufficient, it will naturally not be able to grow much food.

And also.

Sprinkling seeds will make the wheat seedlings grow in a disorderly manner, which is not conducive to light, weeding, insect control, and later harvesting.

And the seeder can solve these problems perfectly.

But it is futile to explain so much now.

Only when an acre of land is planted first and people can see the effect can they understand the value of the existence of the seeder.

-

Although the people of Lijia Village are not optimistic about the columbladder planter, they still gather around the ridge to watch the excitement.

Li Fu's mother-in-law brought seeds and ploughing cattle over.

"Similar to the use of the quyuan plow, the cart is first put on the back of the ox, and then the seeds are poured into the bucket."

Chen Gengnian commanded, and Li Fu did as he said.

The bucket of the three-legged cocoon is not big, but it is very deep, and when it is full, it is just thirty catties of grain.

With so many seeds poured in, a touch of distress appeared on Li Fu's wrinkled face.

However, only by planting these seeds can we harvest in the fall!

Therefore, Li Fu sighed, turned around and asked, "County Master, what should I do next." ”

Chen Gengnian said: "The operation of the columbus requires some technology, and if it is not well controlled, it may affect the germination of seeds. ”

Li Fu's face tightened when he heard this.

"Don't worry, I'll have someone help you."

Chen Gengnian said.

However, before Li Fu could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the county magistrate say to the dark-skinned young man beside him: "Skewers, you come to help Village Chief Li sow seeds." ”

Li Fu: ?

If you guess correctly, then the errand officer is a certain Second Ancestor Young Master!

What a joke to let this straw bale thing sow his field!

Li Fu subconsciously wanted to object.

But firstly, he wanted to ask Chen Gengnian to help him take care of the sows at home, and secondly, Chen Gengnian's prestige had increased recently, and Village Chief Li didn't dare to speak.

"Ah, let me go?"

Hu Ming, who was ordered in public, was also very confused, and he stumbled and said: "Brother Gengnian, no, county master, I won't." ”

Chen Gengnian stretched out his hand and pushed Hu Ming to the side of the car, and said with a smile: "On the way here, didn't I teach you everything?" It's okay, just follow the way I taught you. ”

Teach, that's really taught.

The problem is that I don't understand it very well.

Feeling the staring eyes of the village chief and the village chief's mother-in-law behind him, Hu Ming was like a man's back.

I knew that he might as well stay in the county government to fight with Pei Baolai, and if he loses money, he will lose money, which is better than being embarrassed here!

Hu Ming is very self-aware.

He hadn't done farm work since he was a child, so where could he do this?

But Chen Gengnian had to ask him to help sow the seeds.

In front of everyone's eyes, Hu Ming had no choice but to refuse.

Soon after.

Li Fu drove the cattle, Hu Ming pressed the cart with both hands, and hurriedly began to sow seeds.

"Scared! How is it that a second ancestor is sowing? He didn't look like he had ever worked. ”

"The clothes are loose and loose, and the appearance is too good, this is too nonsense!"

"The village chief is so pitiful, will his family's field be abolished?"

The people of Lijia Village looked at Hu Ming and whispered, their eyes full of disapproval.

Listening to the doubts around him, Hu Ming was upset, and the more upset he was, the more he couldn't remember what Chen Gengnian taught on the way, so he began to panic.

What if he spoils all the seeds in this acre of land?

It was at this time.

"Don't get distracted. The center of gravity sinks, the shoulders press down on the cocoon, shake slightly, pay attention to the seeds in the cocoon, and let them keep them evenly shaking and leaking......"

Chen Gengnian's voice sounded behind him, as if it carried some kind of power, which made people feel at ease.

Hu Ming was not so panicked.

He took a deep breath, and according to what Chen Gengnian said, he pressed the cocoon and began to sow seeds.

The hot summer sun was very scorching, and Hu Ming was sweating from the sun.

It turns out that doing farm work is such a hard job.

Fortunately, the sowing speed of the columbs is very fast, and the sowing of one acre of land is completed in less than half an hour.

Hu Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

But the village head, Li Fu, was about to cry.

"County master, this, how can you finish sowing an acre of land?"

Li Fu panicked: "I only laid thirty catties of seeds!" ”

Under normal circumstances, half of the harvested grain, that is, at least 50 catties of seeds, should be sprinkled on an acre of land to ensure the germination rate.

Even in many cases, fifty catties of seeds can have half the germination rate, even if you are lucky.

Thirty pounds of seeds, it's not useful at all!

"Village Chief Li, don't worry."

Chen Gengnian gently explained: "One of the effects of this three-legged cocoon is to save seeds. Because the seeds sown by the cocoon are buried deep and absorb enough nutrients, the germination rate is higher. ”

What is the effect that can save twenty catties of seeds?

That's nearly half of that!

Li Fu regretted it in his heart.

He shouldn't have taken the initiative to stand up just now and let the county magistrate conduct experiments in his field.

When this acre of land arrives in autumn, there should be no harvest!

Even if he regretted it in his heart, he didn't dare to say it, so he had to reluctantly smile and say: "County master, I believe in you!" ”

But Li Fu just said that he believed it.

After the county lord left, his face turned across, and his mother-in-law complained: "Even if you want to befriend the county lord, you can't let that second ancestor mess around in our fields!" Now it's okay, the county master didn't stammer, and he paid himself in. ”

"The county master said that those thirty catties of seeds can germinate!"

Li Fu was flustered, but he was still stubborn.

But everyone is a crop manager who has been dealing with the field all their lives, and they all know how many seeds produce and how many wheat seedlings.

After this day, the people of Lijia Village were rumored that the village chief Li Fu's acre of land was damaged by the second ancestor's servant.

Because of the perennial drought in Jiang County, the sunshine is abundant.

Basically, as soon as the seeds are sprinkled in the ground, they begin to germinate after three days.

However, three days have passed, and Li Fu's field has not moved at all.

Li Fu was furious, and his face was black all day long.

The people of Lijia Village did not dare to touch the village chief's moldy head, but only dared to talk behind his back, and unanimously decided not to use the county master's car seeder.

As the ploughed ground dried, some families began to eagerly sprinkle the seeds.

"In such a hurry? Don't you want to wait to see what is going on in the village chief's field? ”

"Don't wait, there have been no seedlings for three days, something must have gone wrong."

That's right, too.

The county master does have some ability, but he is not a god, and everything he invents can be useful.

Save 20 catties of seeds per acre, and you have to ensure that all germination, the gods can't do it!

Seeing that some people in the village began to sprinkle seeds one after another, Zhang Ahua was also anxious, and kept asking her son Li Quan about the three-legged car.

But Li Quan didn't understand, and the mother and son could only stare dryly.

In the end, Zhang Ahua gritted her teeth and said: "Wait, wait a few more days, I always feel that the county master is trustworthy." ”

But the village head, Li Fu, has completely lost confidence.

In the past few days, he ran to the county government two times in three days, because he didn't dare to disturb the county master, so he could only find Hu Ming.

"Hu Chagong, it's been three days, and the ground hasn't sprouted yet."

"How many days will it take to germinate, you give me the right words, don't you know? How could you not know, the county master said that you understand! ”

"It's the fifth day, and if it doesn't sprout, it's equivalent to wasting a full thirty catties of food!"

Hu Ming couldn't answer these questions.

So I had to hide in all directions.

Pei Baolai proposed: "It's a simple matter, find a few brothers and blast that old man out." ”

In other words, Hu Ming would have agreed to do so. This time he sighed: "Don't, let him be, I'll try my best to dodge." ”

can hide from Li Fu, but he can't hide from his conscience.

Even Hu Ming was lying on the bed recently, and as soon as he closed his eyes, Li Fu was full of worry and his eyes were red.

It's also strange, why is there always an indescribable sense of guilt?

Thirty catties of grain is only, Hu Ming's family has hundreds of acres of land, when do you care about this thing!

Even Hu Ming's father, Hu Zhifeng, sensed that something was wrong with his son.

Master Hu asked, "Are you going to cause trouble again?" ”

Hu Ming opened his mouth.

He wanted to ask his father for thirty catties of grain and pay compensation to Li Fu.

But the ghost sent the gods, Hu Ming didn't speak.

He is the most calm in this group of second ancestors, and he is not so mixed.

The planter was operated by him throughout the whole process, and Hu Ming suspected that he was distracted and did not listen to Chen Gengnian's teaching, so he messed things up.

"No trouble, Dad, I'll go out."

Hu Ming regretted in his heart, he didn't eat anything in the morning, and hurried to Lijia Village.

In fact, he didn't tell anyone, in the past few days, he has secretly come several times.

It's just that every time I am disappointed.

It was the morning of the sixth day.

Hu Ming sneakily came to Lijia Village and happened to meet Li Fu outside the ridge.

Li Fu's old face was wrinkled deeply, and he sat on the ridge in a daze.

Hu Ming greeted awkwardly: "Village Chief Li, I'll come to see Tian." ”

Li Fu waved his hand silently, motioning for the other party to take a look for himself.

Hu Ming took a breath and went to Li Fu's field in silence.

A moment later.

Hu Ming's excited shouts sounded in the field: "Village Chief Li, Village Chief Li, come and see, come on!" ”

When Li Fu heard the movement, he hurriedly got up and staggered to check.

Then an old man and a young man stood on the ridge, stunned with excitement.

The red sun is rising, and the morning light is faint.

Clusters of tender green seedlings grow in neat rows in the fields, and the buds are covered with early morning dewdrops, which are full of vitality in the light of the morning sun.

Li Fu's expression was sluggish: "My God, thirty catties of grain, so many seedlings!" ”

And Hu Ming, his dark face was faintly red because of excitement: "Sow thirty catties of grain on one acre of land, what Brother Geng Nian said is really right, it's too awesome!" ”
