The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside

In the evening, when Shen Xuening came home from get off work, Grandma Shen showed her the herbs she had collected like a treasure: "Ningning, look, these are the herbs that grandma collected, what do you think?"

Shen Xue Ning looked over and saw all fresh herbs: "Grandma, I asked you to soak the herbs you collected in the nutrient solution for two hours. Did you do it?"

Grandma Shen nodded: "I soaked it for two hours before I washed it."

The well water contains spiritual spring water. Soaking medicinal herbs in it can enhance the efficacy of the herbs by more than three times. Compared with ordinary medicinal herbs, this is still quite good.

Shen Xue Ning said: "Grandma, our own basil is more expensive, and the ones you buy from outside are cheaper, do you know?"

Grandma Shen was puzzled: "Why? Aren't they the same?"

Shen Xue Ning said: "This is different. The medicinal effect of our basil is better, and it is different from the ones we harvested."

Grandma Shen understood: "I understand, our basil is better, right?"

Shen Xue Ning said: "Yes, it is not only good, but much better, so it should be sold at a higher price, twice as much."

Grandma Shen nodded: "I understand."

……

After a few days, the Swiss chard seedlings bred by Shen Xue Ning grew up. She immediately took some nutrient solution to water them, and then she could transplant them after waiting for a few days.

Now there is a problem that bothers Shen Xue Ning - the spices on the two mountains need water to be irrigated, where does this water come from?

Even if the mountain is flattened, it will still be higher. Water will accumulate in the depressions and will not be able to flow up the mountain.

Even if we dig a well, it is not realistic to have two thousand acres of land.

Shen Xue Ning was helping to mix the cement while thinking about a solution.

After getting off work in the evening, Shen Xue Ning returned to her room, finished her work, and then searched the Internet for methods of irrigation in the mountains.

There are some solutions: building reservoirs and ponds, constructing irrigation canals, adopting water-saving irrigation techniques, strengthening water resource management, and utilizing natural terrain and rainwater collection systems.

Shen Xuening looked at the specific operation methods and thought about it in combination with the actual environment. Finally, she chose to build a mountain pond.

At the intersection of two mountains and deep mountains, a pond was artificially dug here, and the fish can be fed there, which is killing two birds with one stone.

The next day Shen Xuening contacted the excavator.

After listening to Shen Xuening's words, the master followed Shen Xuening to plan the scope of the pond, and then started construction.

The construction was somewhat difficult this time as there were many tree roots in the ground and the excavator was quite obstructed.

The mountain pond is a rectangular pool of one hundred meters by fifty meters by two meters. If it is dug out straight, it will look like a swimming pool.

Shen Xue Ning asked the master to dig as quickly as possible. After the digging was completed, some water could be stored when it rained. Otherwise, it would take an unknown amount of time to fill the pond with water.

The master was really awesome. He started digging at 8 a.m. and worked until 12 p.m., and then dug from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., without stopping except for going to the toilet and drinking water.

After seven days of hard work, the master finally finished digging the pond.

The next thing to do is to lay a layer of bricks on each side of the pond and then put a layer of cement on the bricks. Otherwise, the pond will not be able to store water because the mountain on this side is higher and the water will flow downwards.

In view of this, Shen Dong and his team temporarily stopped the construction of the pig house and focused on finishing the pond first.

Shen Xue Ning asked the excavator to dig a road to facilitate the transportation of materials.

The excavator master also worked tirelessly, driving the excavator while digging the road. He also considerately compacted the road to make it look quite real.

Transport bricks, cement and river sand to the vicinity of the pond and start construction directly.

Now everyone almost obeys Shen Xue Ning's words. They do whatever she says and rarely ask any questions. They just take action.

With the efforts of Shen Dong and others, it took seven days for them to build a layer of bricks around the pond and then a layer of cement. As long as there are no cracks, water can be kept inside for a long time.

It rained the next day, and the pond was filled with a foot of water, which had already covered the bottom of the pond.

Shen Xuening thought about it and simply pulled a pipe to pump water from the big well in the village and store the water first.

The big well in the village is an old well, which is said to have a history of more than two hundred years. The water in this well has never dried up, and many buckets have fallen into it.

At this time, the water level in the well was very high, only two meters away from reaching the surface.

Nowadays, every household has dug their own well and seldom draw water from big wells, so Shen Xue Ning can use water freely.

The old people in the village said that if the water in the well was drained today, it would be restored to its original state tomorrow. Shen Xue Ning was quite curious whether it was true.

Regardless of these statements, Shen Xue Ning installed the pump, electrical wires, and water pipes and started pumping water.

At the same time, Shen Dong and his team went back to build the pig house.

While Shen Xuening was busy, villager Xie Gui came to Shen Xuening. He was in his forties, the same age as Shen Dong and the others, and was dressed in rustic, rural attire.

"Ningning." Xie Gui called out somewhat restrainedly.

Shen Xuening turned around: "What's the matter?"

Xie Gui said: "I heard that you want to raise pigs. You should need help, right? Do you think I can do it?"

Shen Xue Ning asked: "You want to help me raise pigs?"

Xie Gui said: "Yes, it's not easy to find a job in the village. If I can help you raise pigs, I won't be a burden to my family and I can also earn a salary, which is good."

Shen Xue Ning had no other choice. If it was suitable, she could let the person in front of her do it: "Do you know what it takes to help me raise pigs?"

Xie Gui said tentatively: "Cooking pig food, feeding pigs, and cleaning."

Shen Xue Ning said: "There is also irrigation for Swiss chard. Swiss chard can only grow well after irrigation, so it needs to be irrigated every time after picking. If it is not enough, you need to continue planting. You also need to be able to operate a machine, the kind that grinds corn or rice into powder..."

Xie Gui blinked, obviously not expecting to do so many things: "I can learn the machine, it shouldn't be difficult."

Shen Xue Ning said: "I can teach you. I can also teach you how to use the vegetable cutting machine. Put the Swiss chard into the machine and the machine will start to run. The Swiss chard will be chopped. It can also cut potatoes, sweet potatoes, taro and other things."

With so many pigs, it is unrealistic to cut vegetables manually, so we have to buy machines to help.

Xie Gui didn’t expect that raising pigs was not easy: “I thought I could do it.”

Shen Xue Ning said: "You can try it first, and then do it if you can do it. After all, the workload is not low."

Xie Gui nodded: "Okay."

Shen Xue Ning said: "Uncle, are you okay? If you are okay, go and help my dad build the pig house. I will pay you."

"No need to pay me, just give me work." Xie Gui said happily, "I'll go help you right away."

Shen Xue Ning said: "Thank you very much."

Xie Gui immediately rushed to Shen Dong to help build the pig house.
