The History of Farming Struggle Through Time Traveling
Chapter 33 Farming
"So, the ginseng smell last time..." Liu He remembered the faint ginseng smell when he drank chicken soup last time, and was frightened by his own thoughts for a moment.
Xu Yongxuan smiled at Liu He's expression, nodded and said, "That's right, Er Ge Lang, your body is too weak, so Yi Ming took a thousand-year-old ginseng beard and added it to it. Now it seems that this thousand-year-old ginseng is not random. Said."
"What... Yi Ming, you have a thousand-year-old ginseng beard."
Jiang Yiming was overwhelmed by the excited people in the room, so he said bravely, "Anyway, anyway, there are so many ginseng beards, it doesn't matter if there are a few less."
What does it mean to be missing a few ginseng? Does this guy know how much a thousand-year-old ginseng beard is worth?To put it bluntly, a thousand-year-old ginseng beard is almost a month's living expenses in an ordinary family, or even higher, and this person actually said... Many people are covering their chests in unison to control their emotions of being hit.
Jiang Yiming saw that everyone was stunned by the shock, and couldn't help but glared at Xu Yongxuan, but he knew that this matter would be revealed sooner or later, but it was just ahead of time, so he chuckled a few times and said perfunctorily: "I just It's just luck, if it wasn't for being chased by wild boars, I would have almost died, maybe I still can't find these two ginsengs."
Although the blow was a bit abnormal, everyone still felt that Jiang Yiming's words were very reasonable. The blessing of escaping after the festival, this is God's will in the dark!
"Ahem, second brother, so you don't have to worry about the money. I discussed it with Yi Ming. Second brother, you and fifth brother only have three acres of fertile land and two acres respectively, so we plan to increase you to ten acres per person. Excluding the twenty acres of fertile land that Yi Ming bought before, as for the remaining twenty acres of fertile land, Li Ada, I remember that your family only has four acres of fertile land. I'll rent it from you, and I'll sell it to you when you have enough money." Xu Yongxuan's long series of words drew everyone's thoughts to the field again, but after saying these words, several people were shocked.
Xu Yongchun didn't expect Xu Yongxuan to make such a decision, so he retorted calmly: "No, you paid for it, I don't want anything."
"Second brother is right. Third brother, you not only helped us buy land and build a house, but now you also share our fertile land. This, this..."
"Of course it's not free. It's the same as land and houses. You can just return it to us when you earn money. Second brother, don't refuse. Yongxuan and I can't do it no matter how capable we are. Tian, you can rest assured to plant it, if you really feel sorry, at worst, give me a stone of grain when the harvest is over." Jiang Yiming's words directly made the two parties speechless.
Xu Yongchun knew that they had nothing on hand now, and the only thing that could make money was the fields, but there were too few good fields, and dry fields and sandy land couldn't grow much food, so he could only accept this proposal.
As for Li Ada's surprise, he didn't expect Xu Yongxuan to rent good land for him. He looked at Xu Yongning next to him, and he probably understood what it meant, so he didn't refuse, and expressed his gratitude with a nod.
Everyone at the table accepted it, and Jiang Yiming turned his attention to Wang Jiu'er again, and said with a smile, "Brother Jiu'er, do you want to rent the land, I can rent it to you with five acres."
Jiang Yiming knew that Li Zhuang's family also had few acres of fertile land. The two sons in the family had to eat, drink, and pay taxes. It was impossible to have extra money to buy land. Having six acres of fertile land was already very good.
"Are you really willing to rent another five acres of land to us?" Li Zhuang asked in surprise.
"Fifteen acres of fertile land is enough, Brother Li, and these five acres of fertile land are the same as Li Ada."
He obviously has nothing to do with them, but he can help them so generously, that's real money!The group of people were extremely moved. Li Zhuang patted Xu Yongxuan on the shoulder and said in awe, "Thank you."
The field matter was settled, and Jiang Yiming began to think about planting. Judging from the seasons, it was time to plant seeds. Judging from the current seedlings, it is impossible to plant all [-] acres, only [-] acres can be planted. mu.
Jiang Yiming intends to keep his [-] mu of fertile land to only the [-] mu of fertile land by the river to grow rice, and the rest to be planted with peppers, soybeans, and of course some ginger, garlic, and sweet potatoes; the dry land is suitable for corn and wheat, but because the seeds are too So Jiang Yiming planned to plant pumpkins, cucumbers, cowpeas, and cabbage. Of course, the left sandy land would be planted with radishes and potatoes. Anyway, the sandy potatoes were big, and the radishes grown in the sandy land would have enough water.
Jiang Yiming, who had made up his mind, asked, "Second Brother, what are you going to do with your dry fields and sandy land?"
"Well, we generally don't use sandy land, and dry land may just focus on vegetables and the like." Xu Yongchun explained.
Jiang Yiming looked at the others, nodded and knew that the result was the same. Seeing this, Jiang Yiming couldn't help but sigh and said: "Dry fields and sandy fields can be planted. You can plant wheat on dry fields, and sandy fields can be used to plant radishes and sweet potatoes." Anyway, there is more than one type of radish in this world, carrots and red radishes are collectively called radishes.
"Planting wheat on dry fields, this... Yi Ming, we usually plant wheat on good fields." Wang Jiuer said.
"I know, but this method is wrong. Fertile fields are too watery and are only suitable for planting some water-loving plants. So your fertile fields are all planted with grains, and wheat is drought-tolerant. If there is too much water, it will reduce production."
It was the first time they had heard that food doesn't like water. Jiang Yiming knew what everyone thought, and said with a smile: "It's not that I don't like water, but I can't have too much water. If you don't believe it, then you will die in the past six months." Look at me planting, if you have a good harvest, why not plant it with me in winter.”
"Can wheat be grown in winter?" Li Ada asked in disbelief.
Jiang Yiming nodded, "Of course, wheat can be grown in two seasons, but it depends on the weather. Fortunately, our side is hot in summer and not too cold in winter, so it's no problem to plant two seasons." Like rice, it is not drought-tolerant, and water shortage reduces production!
"But if we all plant the fertile land with grains, what will happen to your and Xu San's fertile land?" Xu San's words are what everyone cares about.
Jiang Yiming waved his hand and said it was all right, "Don't worry about it, I can plant five acres of fertile land, and I will plant the rest of the fertile land, so don't worry."
How can it be possible not to worry, the good fertile land is being used for planting other things, no matter what they say, everyone disagrees.
Although Xu Yongxuan didn't understand what Jiang Yiming was going to do, he cooperated with Jiang Yiming tacitly and said, "I think Yiming has his own ideas, and he will definitely make good use of the fertile land."
"Yes, I still have a lot of things waiting for me to plant, so I will start work tomorrow."
"Tomorrow, so early?"
Jiang Yiming shook his head at Xu Yongxuan, "It's getting late, the planting season will be over any later, don't worry, I will take care of my body."
Xu Yongxuan was still worried, finally saw that Jiang Yiming's body had improved a bit and gained some flesh, what if he collapsed from such a busy schedule?
Wang Jiu'er probably understood what Xu Yongxuan was thinking, so he volunteered and said, "Don't worry, I will help, Xu San, your house is the key, you can't do without people, don't build a house in Yongnian, I will help you three times tomorrow." Brother."
Xu Yongnian nodded, Xu Yongning also said to help, and even Liu He joined in and said he would help, so Xu Yongxuan had no choice but to agree, but he couldn't be tired in one word, otherwise he would rather not plant.
Well, how dare the boss not listen to what he said, Jiang Yiming could only bite the bullet and nod, but judging from the situation, the house should be repaired, and his ten mu of fertile land should be able to be completed.
"By the way, I almost forgot one thing." Jiang Yiming got up and ran back to the house, took two pieces of paper and handed them to Xu Yongxuan, and said: "Send these two pieces of paper to Mr. Zhang who blacksmiths tomorrow, I'll wait for them. "
A sickle, a machete and a saw.Xu Yongxuan, who was surprised by the things on the paper, asked suspiciously: "What do you want these for?"
Jiang Yiming rolled his eyes, pointed at the sickle and said, "We use this knife to cut the wheat seedlings we grow, and this flat knife is used to cut bamboo, and this saw is used to saw trees or bamboo. Alas, In short, you do it first, and when it’s done, you’ll know when I use it.”
Although everyone didn't understand much, but there was one thing that everyone understood and exclaimed. It was the sickle. After all, the rice and wheat seedlings in this world were still chopped with knives.
Xu Yongxuan looked at another piece of paper, and Xu Yongxuan couldn't understand the strange shapes on it. Jiang Yiming, who was standing beside him, explained: "This is a plow. Put it on the cow quilt, and you can easily turn over the soil." Jiang Yiming With such an explanation, everyone really thinks this is the truth.
Xu Yongxuan nodded, it would be great if such a good agricultural tool can be widely used, "I see, there is carpenter's work on it, I will let you know."
Jiang Yiming nodded in satisfaction at Xu Yongxuan's discovery of the importance of it.
The next day, Jiang Yiming got up early in the morning, had a simple breakfast and then started to work in the field.Because peppers are still seeds, only seedlings can be stored first.
After the chili seeds are processed, soybeans, ginger, and garlic will be planted. Jiang Yiming plans to plant five acres of soybeans, but only one acre of garlic. Jiang Yiming plans to plant two acres of peppers, and ginger for the remaining five acres.
Before sowing, the field must be cleared and the soil must be loosened. It may be because the fertile land is too wet, so Jiang Yiming dug up a part of the soil and planned to dry it, and finally sprinkled it on the surface after the seeds fell to the ground.
It took Jiang Yiming and others five days to process ten acres of fertile land. It was indeed painful in the age without machines. For the first time, Jiang Yiming knew the hard work of farming.
When I was young, I watched everyone busy in the fields at my grandpa's house and thought it was fun, and I made trouble a lot, but my grandpa and grandma never scolded him.Now it seems that it is all because of the love for his grandson. If it was a son, he would have slapped his ass long ago.
This body was tortured by the disease before and almost only skin and bones remained. If it wasn't for drinking so much ginseng chicken soup later, Jiang Yiming was sure that this body would have collapsed a long time ago.
Beating his sore back, Xu Yongxuan looked distressed, took his hand and said that the house will be repaired in a few days, and he will come over to help him immediately.
Jiang Yiming knew that Xu Yongxuan was concerned with him, so he didn't care about the so-called "just a few days" to help him, and kissed Xu Yongxuan with a smile, which almost made him lie on the bed the next day. The last bit of sanity was blocked.
The sixth day began at the end of April, and the weather became much warmer. Jiang Yiming hurriedly began to sow soybeans, with four to five seeds per hole, no less than [-] to [-] holes per acre, and five acres of land. Jiang Yiming really felt Tired.
Fortunately, he and Xu Yongxuan's house was built at this time, and the two-story towering building was not to mention really impressive, like a small western-style building, not to mention how exquisite it was.
But the outside is fine, but the inside is still empty and there is nothing, of course Xu Yongxuan didn't bother to pay attention to it, and hurried to work in the field.Xu Yongchun and others were considering postponing the housewarming day that was supposed to be on May [-]th, but it was only one day, and Jiang Yiming persuaded them to do it.
Xu Yongxuan smiled at Liu He's expression, nodded and said, "That's right, Er Ge Lang, your body is too weak, so Yi Ming took a thousand-year-old ginseng beard and added it to it. Now it seems that this thousand-year-old ginseng is not random. Said."
"What... Yi Ming, you have a thousand-year-old ginseng beard."
Jiang Yiming was overwhelmed by the excited people in the room, so he said bravely, "Anyway, anyway, there are so many ginseng beards, it doesn't matter if there are a few less."

Does this guy know how much a thousand-year-old ginseng beard is worth?To put it bluntly, a thousand-year-old ginseng beard is almost a month's living expenses in an ordinary family, or even higher, and this person actually said...
