Broken leg by silly daughter-in-law

Fortunately, the underground river bed here is relatively shallow, but it took more than a day to dig the water.

In order to supply sufficient water, a 20-meter-deep well was specially dug.

I am afraid that the children in the village will come out to play, and there will be accidents in the water accidentally.

Liu Luochen deliberately asked those craftsmen to build the well very high, and added a heavy wooden cover on it.

Big locks are specially added on both sides of the cover. When I use it, I add a simple wooden shelf on it, and I can scoop water from the well. It is quite convenient that the water is in the middle of my five acres of land.

But seeing the bucket thicker than his waist, Liu Luochen sighed leisurely, missing the current water pump very much.

If this is in modern times, after such a well is equipped with a water pump, why would it need buckets of water for irrigation?

Well drilling is not a small sum of money. Others dig wells not only for wages, but also for food.

Liu Luochen was too lazy to cook for so many men who could eat, so he gave each of them an extra ten cents as the first cooking money.

Those guys are naturally willing to accept it, and there is no one who doesn't love money.

However, this well cost Liu Luochen nearly ten taels of silver.

Seeing Liu Luochen spending so much money, the surrounding villagers felt a little disapproving.

Some people privately commented that Liu Luochen would never farm land because of the banned money.

It took 10 taels of silver to dig a well. This means that there is a field and it is floating.

During the autumn harvest, the grains are not harvested, and the loss is so great that I can’t even eat

But now every household is busy with farming, and this is just a topic of conversation for other people after dinner.

Liu Luochen didn't care either, the land at home was plowed well.

Liu Luochen poured water into the ditches. He had asked the village chief to raise 5 acres of rice seedlings for his family, and it was just right now.

The brothers settled accounts clearly, even though they made friends with the village chief's family, Liu Luochen did not take advantage of it for nothing.

All the money for these rice seedlings was handed over to Liu Jian.

Then he pulled the bullock cart to his own field and started planting rice seedlings.

However, anyone who has done farm work knows that transplanting rice seedlings is the most tiring, not to mention bending over and getting up all the time.

Let's just say that the insects in the paddy field and leeches are very troublesome things.

Liu Luochen was terrified of those soft bugs.

However, he still had to bite the bullet and go to the fields with Nan Nian to plant rice seedlings. If he waited any longer, he might miss the best season.

Nan Nian felt sorry for Liu Luochen very much, and wanted to do all the work by himself.

Nai and he have limited strength, so rice transplanting is a delicate job.

If he was the only one to do it, he would have to do it alone for a month for the 5 acres of land, which would delay the farming season and miss a big deal.

Liu Luochen's expression of going to death was all over his face, as if he was experiencing life.

He also made an agreement with Nan Nan that the two of them would compete to plant seedlings one by one.

Whoever finishes the insertion first will wash his feet when he returns home at night.

Seeing her husband cheering up, Nan Nian smiled dotingly, nodded and agreed.

So the two began to plant rice seedlings quickly.

Of course, Nan Nian, who is tall and burly, won the rice planting in the end.

The two of them had been busy in the field all day, and at noon they just ate some dry food and jerky.

When it was completely dark, I walked home tiredly.

At this time, no matter men, women or children in the family, as long as they have the labor force, they will go to the fields to help transplant rice seedlings and cultivate them.

The elderly women in the family also help cook and deliver water. It can be said that the whole family works together.

After all, the food produced in this field will be used by the family for the next year, and it will be impossible for them to be sloppy.

It's hard to chase after a man's words, since he lost, Liu Luochen accepted it very calmly.

Now the thin horse-like figure, because of the delicious food and drink during this period of time, has gradually gained some flesh.

However, with his thin body, holding a wooden barrel that was wider than him, and a bucket full of water was still very easy.

He didn't talk too much. After exercising and eating well during this period, Liu Luochen's strength also increased a lot.

Such a large bucket of water is really nothing to him, he can't even shake his hand.

Liu Luochen took a figure-to-foot step, and put the wooden bucket full of warm water in front of Nan Nian with a bang.

Then he took out a small bench, put Nan Nian's feet in the bucket, and scrubbed them.

He also learned the modern technique of rubbing feet, kneading and knocking on the soles of Nan Nian's feet.

Nan Nian laughed so hard that he couldn't stop grabbing the soles of his feet back.

However, Nan Nian is not as strong as Liu Luochen, so he can only be scratched on the soles of his feet, and tears are about to burst out of laughter. It is also painful and happy,

In the end, Nan Nian couldn't stand this kind of enjoyment, so he pulled Liu Luochen into his arms and pressed him on the bed.

Then he poured the water out of the wooden barrel like a scud, went out to blow out the lamp, and after playing around for a while, the two fell into a deep sleep.

The rice seedlings in the paddy fields grew taller little by little, so Liu Luochen began to look for suitable fish seedlings and snails.

There is no breeding of snails at present, so we can only find opportunities to catch some in the stream, and then slowly raise them.

However, it is best to use carp and grass carp for fry.

For this reason, he deliberately ran to the only family in the village who raised fish, and that family was surnamed Duan.

So it is said that he is a person with a foreign surname, but he has lived in the village for more than ten years, so he can be regarded as half of Liujia Village.

Liu Luochen came to the door with some sweets and snacks, and explained why he came. Duan Laosan also had a sad face, and said with shame: "Brother Liu, it's not that my brother doesn't want to sell your fish fry. My brother's fish pond is not profitable, and he lost a lot of money a few years ago." , the mother-in-law at home is sick, and I really don’t want to manage that fish pond. I wanted to sell it last year, but no one took it over, so I didn’t buy fry this year either.”

For a moment Liu Luochen was very disappointed.

Duan Lao San saw that he was really anxious, and said again: "But if my brother really wants fish fry, I can point you to a way, maybe it can meet your needs."

The third child was also a real person during this period, and he told Liu Luochen about the purchase channel of his fry.

Although he felt unbelievable and not very optimistic about Liu Luochen's desire to raise fish among rice paddies.

But after several times of persuasion to no avail, he didn't say any more,

Hearing what he said, Liu Luochen suddenly remembered that the old village chief had said about the fish pond in the village years ago, and rolled his eyes, so he said, "I think the fish pond at Brother Duan's house is in a good location and it's well maintained. You are quite careful, why don’t you suddenly stop raising them?”

Third Duan took a puff of cigarette and sighed leisurely.

Recently, he felt depressed, and wanted to have a chat with others to relieve his depression, so he said, "I'm not going to hide from Brother Liu, my fish pond has made a lot of money before. But in the past two years, I don't know how. Yes, many people die of illness every time they raise fish. You also know that these fish are expensive, and the villagers around are reluctant to buy much, so naturally they can’t buy much. I always have to carry the fish to the town to sell. This fish is already delicate. After leaving the water, some of them died in the town, and they were no longer alive, so they couldn’t be sold at a good price, but I was so worried that I also lost a lot of money for this in the past two years, and I really couldn’t afford it. "

It is easy to buy a fish pond, but fish farming is such a craft, but it is not easy. Professional things still need professional people.

After thinking about it in his mind, Liu Luochen came up with an idea.

So he looked up at Duan Laosan and said, "I don't know what price Brother Duan wants to sell for this pond?"

Youngest Duan was slightly startled, and looked up at Liu Luochen.

The Liu Family Village probably knew about the other party's situation.

Liu Luochen had just separated for less than a year, and how much money he could have in his hands, he was probably just curious and asked the price.

But Duan Laosan is kind and honest, even though he thought Liu Luochen was just asking casually, he still said honestly: "I bought this fish pond for 25 taels of silver. I didn’t even sell it, but now I want to sell it for 25 taels of silver to exchange for some capital, and I want to be a peddler and earn more money.”

Liu Luochen nodded knowingly, the pool was right next to his house.

The area is not small, about 300 square meters.

He wanted to sell the pond, not to sell fish.

Instead, he wants to raise more fish, shrimp and crab seedlings, etc., so that his fish-rice symbiosis system can really achieve a bumper harvest.

At that time, the villagers in the village will follow suit, and the fish fry in this pond will be useful.

But Liu Luochen knew nothing about raising fish.

He was at home in his previous life, but he never even raised a goldfish.

Liu Luochen looked thoughtfully at the teenage boy behind Duan Laosan, and said, "To tell you the truth, Brother Duan, my brother really intends to enter the pond, but he doesn't know how to raise fish. Dare I ask Brother Duan if this son will Can you raise fish?"

Although Duan Laosan did not know, he was overjoyed when he heard that the other party wanted to buy a pond, and he said repeatedly: "My family, Da Fei, has been soaking in the pond with me since childhood, and his skill in raising fish is no worse than mine. If you want to raise fish in the fish pond, you can ask him if you don’t understand anything.”

Liu Luochen nodded, and said, "Brother, your character. I am also relieved, but I just dug a well, and you also know that I don't have that much money at the moment. Why don't I pay 20 taels for this pond, and I promise every day I pay 50 Wen per month, and every year there is a reward at the national border, let my little nephew go to the pond to raise fish for me." Seeing Duan Laosan's worry, Liu Luochen said again: "Don't worry, if the loss is mine, if the pond is profitable , then [-]% of the net profit will be drawn from the price every year, I don’t know how.”

Hearing that Duan Laosan's eyes lit up, he is also a businessman, so he is naturally very sensitive to this.

Not to mention that now that Liu Luochen hired his son to work, he was paid 50 Wen a month, which was a salary that could only be paid for hard work.

And if the fish pond is profitable, the family can still get a part of the commission, and the white money is free.
