The days of being a spiritual mentor in Meiman.

Chapter 1227 The Farm of Justice ([-])

In the early morning in Kansas, when the sun shines through the slightly humid air, there are dense light and shadows floating in the air.

When the golden light shines on the land, the distant sound comes from the wind. When the last trace of coolness in the wind fades, the footsteps of spring bring gentle whispers, telling the hard-working human beings on this vast land, Spring plowing is about to begin.

Several young people living in the Kent farm hut got up early in the morning. The sun had just risen from the horizon, and everyone was already packing things in a hurry.

Before dawn, the sound of "rumbling" tractors was connected to last night's spring thunder, and the noisy chatter and laughter of farm helpers came from the main house not far away. Clark pushed open the wooden door, and came out from the wet In the air, I could smell the aroma of Martha cooking thick soup.

Clark just lifted his foot to go out, then suddenly withdrew his leg, and turned to the people behind him and said, "Don't come out, the cobblestones outside are a little loose, Bruce, help me get a shovel, I want to press them tightly a little."

With a "whoosh", a shovel flew over. Clark instinctively reached out to catch it, but when he looked up, he saw Diana's face. He raised his eyebrows in surprise. The force of the shovel flying just now was not light.

Diana gave a big smile and said, "I know, you're proud of your strength, boy, but I'm not bad either."

Clark smiled, walked out with a shovel in his hand, and said, "I've seen that you want to play two tricks with me. You Amazon women are like this. You always want to prove your strength."

"There's nothing wrong with that. At least you'll have a good helper when you're farming today." Diana shrugged and took out a shovel to help Clark smooth the cobblestones at the door.

Bruce, who had just woken up, stood by the door in a daze. He stretched out his head and glanced outside the door, and then said, "There seem to be a lot of people on the farm. What are they here for?"

"Of course I'm here to help with farm work." Clark said briskly.

But Bruce and Diana stared at him at the same time, with expressions of disapproval on their faces. Clark sighed helplessly and said, "What are you thinking? I'm not an evil landlord who exploits farmers!"

"The Kent farm has long been a large-scale mechanized farming, and no one will go off to plow the land in person, but because of the large-scale formalization, we need a lot of professionals to help the farm complete the spring plowing."

"First of all, we need an agricultural consultant who is responsible for providing knowledge and technical assistance. He is not an expert himself, but he knows where to find the most reliable experts."

"These experts will collect the soil from the Kent farm, take it back to the laboratory to analyze our soil conditions, and determine the most suitable plants and planting methods and timing of planting."

"We also need a purchasing broker, who needs to be responsible for all business matters. After getting a professional report from an expert, he will help us analyze what kind of seeds are the most economical to buy, which farms have planted which fine varieties, and which have won Nice earnings."

"The next step is to contact the seed dealer, go to the mechanical farm tool market or the second-hand trading market to purchase the farm tools that need to be purchased this year."

"At the same time, we also have a government consultant, who mainly helps us solve some policy issues, such as, what policy incentives have been introduced for farmers this year, whether there have been any changes in relevant agricultural regulations, and whether the harvesting and secondary processing of agricultural products have improved. The new standard."

"In the end, my father was personally responsible for the sales channels of agricultural products, pushing our high-quality products to various suppliers."

"Of course, this is not all. There are also some more sophisticated technical consultants and skilled workers. For example, in agriculture, there are experts in pesticide spraying, there are volunteers for nature protection forests, and in animal husbandry, there are veterinarians. Do a physical examination and have a breeder in charge of breeding."

Clark said a lot in general, and he spread his hands and said: "In modern agriculture, almost all manual labor is replaced by machines, but in contrast, knowledge and technology require a lot of talents."

"The sound of the tractor you heard this morning is the seeder we hired. You can't expect us to plow such a large piece of land, right? Even if we drive the tractor 24 hours a day, it's useless."

"The timing of spring plowing is very precious. We have to start planning after the rain, wait for the moisture level of the land to reach a just right level, and then start planting immediately. Seize the most precious few days and scatter all the seeds."

"So, today we're going to work with these seeders?" Bruce asked.

Clark shook his head and said, "No, this year's situation is a bit special. We can have an independent field. I can take you to plant the land together and wait until the harvest season to harvest together."

Clark threw the shovel to Diana, and Diana put the shovel back into the house, and then he waved to the two of them and said, "Come on, let's go and see the field."

After speaking, Clark turned around and left, sighing as he walked, and then said: "It's a pity that Louise is busy with work. He has already finished his annual leave, so he can only go back to work."

Diana smiled teasingly and said: "You can ask me directly, was she a little bit reluctant when she left? I can tell you, yes, and you are the main one she is reluctant to part with."

Standing on the side of the road, Clark coughed twice, covered his mouth with his fist, and said falteringly, "It has nothing to do with me."

After a while, Diana and Bruce both changed into waterproof boots, and Clark held some small flags, an ax and a roll of hemp rope in his hands, and the three of them started to go deep into the Kent farm.

The whole farm doesn't look very big from the sky, because there are all such large farms around, but if you really walk, it's like running to death. The three of them walked for more than half an hour before finally arriving at Clark's place. Said target point.

Walk eastward from the ridge, enter the natural reserved land of Kent Farm, walk out along a small road, and come to an open land like a paradise.

There is a forest on one side, and windbreak plants on the other two sides, like a garden surrounded by fences, but the actual area is also very large, and the windbreak forest on the opposite side almost disappears into the skyline.

This piece of land looks a little different from other fields, the biggest difference is that the soil on the ground looks a bit messy, without the obvious tractor plowing traces of other farm fields.

"This was originally the vegetable field of the farm." After walking in, Clark pointed to the land and introduced: "But during the spring plowing last year, our sheep just got infected with the disease, and my parents were busy working with the veterinarian to deal with the sheep. The problem of disease, there is not so much energy to take care of the farm.”

"After they reacted, they realized that they had missed the best planting season, and this vegetable field was left empty. My father originally proposed to plant some late-sowed plants, but my mother said that it would be better to take turns."

"Retirement?" Bruce asked with some doubts.

"Take turns to fallow." Clark said while looking for something around: "The fertility of the land is a gift of nature, but this kind of gift is not common. Plants will absorb the nutrients in the land. If the nutrients are continuously planted, the nutrients will decline. Then the output will drop as well.”

"So, instead of cultivating all the land, we will let the land fall fallow in rotation to restore fertility. In fact, only about two-thirds of the entire Kent farm is cultivated now, and the rest is fallow. Like a fishing moratorium."

"I didn't have time to sow last year. My mother decided to abandon this vegetable field and re-open a vegetable field in another direction. This year, they decided to continue planting that field."

"However, I think this piece of land is already quite fertile. It has almost recovered after a year of repairing. It would be a waste to leave it empty, so why don't we plant something together on it."

Bruce and Diana looked at each other, neither of them seeming to want to ask the stupid question themselves, but finally Diana said, "So, what are we going to grow? How?"

Before Clark could speak, Diana stretched out her hands and gestured, and then said, "The Amazon mainly relies on hunting, and we also plant, but at most we can grow some herbs or something."

"Our planting method is to burn a piece of land, and then directly sprinkle the seeds in it, without watering or spraying pesticides. It is all up to God to reward us, and we count as much as we can grow. So, you'd better not expect me to be able to grow." Offer any constructive advice."

Bruce also looked at Clark and said: "Don't look at me, I have almost no research on agriculture. You all know that Gotham can't grow land. Plants are just like the people there. There are only two outcomes, either dead or crazy. "

Clark sighed deeply and said, "That's why I brought you to this small field for practice. If you let you drive tractors directly on the big farmland, you will be able to drive them in a crooked manner."

"What's so difficult about driving a tractor?" Diana snorted and said, "Isn't it similar to driving? At most, there are a little more buttons, and my car drives pretty well."

Clark rolled his eyes, but he was too lazy to talk to her. He found a small fallen tree from the nearby forest, cut the trunk into several pieces, and then split the stake from the middle, turning it into thin A little stick.

Immediately afterwards, he planted wooden sticks around the field, and tied the flag to the top of the sticks with hemp rope. After finishing everything, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, this is our experimental field." Well, the method of growing ordinary vegetables is similar, we have to drive the tractor over first."

"Why drive the tractor first?" Bruce asked behind Clark, "Shouldn't the type of plant be selected first? Then pick the seeds?"

"Because we need to grab a good tractor first." Clark said quickly, "Those hired sowers all have their own tractors, but there are also some who don't drive their own tractors and want to use ours. "

"Our family has a total of four tractors, but there are also old and new ones. Do you want to recall the glory of German industry in my grandfather's time?"

Bruce paused, glanced at Diana next to him, but finally grabbed Clark and said, "Fly over, I want the newest one."

Clark looked back in surprise, he glanced at Diana, Bruce coughed, and stared at Diana, Diana raised her hands and took a step back and said, "Well, I definitely didn't see you flying up to kiss last night." Wild goose."

"I'm not kissing geese!" Clark raised his voice and said angrily, but then his tone changed to helplessness: "The bat cat went to fight crime in the geese's dream, causing two geese to fly and fall Now, I have to send them back."

Then, Clark realized that he had missed something, so he stared at Bruce with some dissatisfaction, then looked at Diana, and wanted to explain.

Diana withdrew her hand and hugged it to her chest. Seeing the two boys staring at her, she gave a disdainful cut, and then said, "Do you really think it's rare to be able to fly?"

As soon as the words fell, under Clark's shocked gaze, the black-haired princess jumped up.

Diana's figure drew a smooth arc in the air, like a fish swimming in the water, with her long hair fluttering, the waves in her eyes were brighter than the morning light.
