Power Farmer

Regarding marriage, Wei Jingze really never thought about it. He spends most of his time among men, how to get along with the opposite sex, or even spend his whole life, he has no such concept at all.

When word spread that the old man's millet sold for 300 yuan a load, many people were in a commotion. Sure enough, a matchmaker came to the door, wanting to marry Wei Jingze.

Nowadays, girls in rural areas do not like to marry men who work at home, but prefer to marry men who work outside, because working outside earns more, and whoever sends home more money every year will be more competitive.So every Chinese New Year is the peak period of blind dates. Maybe after returning home, a matchmaker introduces someone of the opposite sex. The two meet two or three times and feel that the other is pretty good. However, the parents of both parties are mainly concerned about the other's family background and every year. After the two parties feel good about how much money they earn, they start to discuss things like dowry. After the dowry and other things are negotiated, the two people's affairs are almost settled. After the dowry is given, they are engaged, and then they may go out again. Work part-time for a year, and come back to get married at the end of the year.

People who become like this are not uncommon in the countryside, and it cannot be said that every couple has a bad life, but obviously this way is no longer suitable for contemporary young people to choose their spouses.

Anyway, Wei Jingze didn't intend to do this.

There are no female elders in the family, and the old man is always working outside, and Wei Jingze also uses the excuse of working, if he does not stay at home, he will be caught by the matchmaker if he stays at home. This is a negative impact that Wei Jingze did not expect.

I've been busy plowing the fields for several days, this time I don't need to spread fertilizers, just plant the seedlings in the fields, the old man plans to plant one mu of glutinous rice this year, Wei Jingze let us grow two mu, glutinous rice has so many uses , and more expensive than ordinary rice, the old man listened to Wei Jingze's words.

After the rice was dried, Jiang Yanzong and the others gave two catties to try it, and Jiang Yanzong called Wei Jingze to taste the new rice together.

Generally speaking, the taste of early rice is worse than that of late rice. It is said that because of the growth cycle, the growth cycle of late rice is about one month longer than that of early rice.

But this time, when the rice was punched out, it was shiny, full and almost translucent.Chen Han cleaned the rice himself, and he didn't need a rice cooker. He cooked the rice in a small iron pot directly, just like in the countryside. When it was just boiled, but not cooked, he could smell the aroma of the rice.

Chen Han took a bowl of rice soup, put the small pot back to hang, and continued to simmer over low heat. He divided the rice soup into three portions and brought them to the room for Wei Jingze and Jiang Yanzong to taste.

When the rice soup was served, everyone was sitting on the white rice soup. They seemed to see a layer of oily flowers. After taking a sip, the rice fragrance filled the mouth immediately, with a hint of sweetness. It was very mellow and sweet, making people smack their lips.

Chen Han also ignored the soup, took a big sip, and said to Jiang Yanzong: "Let me tell you, if you use Xiaowei's rice to cook rice in the future, you can cook it in my way instead of using the rice cooker, so that we can still cook rice." sell rice soup."

Jiang Yanzong said: "You still call me a profiteer, but I think you are even worse than me!"

"Then tell me, do you sell rice soup?"

"Sell! Of course sell!"

Wei Jingze felt that there were some black lines on his head.

"Then I will tell the cooking apprentice to put in more water so that we can cook more rice soup."

Wei Jingze couldn't help laughing anymore, these two guys are like living treasures together, and Jiang Yanzong is less cold and more lively.

The quality of the rice passed the test. Jiang Yanzong personally went to Wei Jingze's house to weigh the millet. Wei Jingze decided to leave a thousand catties of millet, and the rest of the millet was sold to Jiang Yanzong. One thousand catties was enough for his father and grandson to eat until the late rice was harvested. .The old man is getting old, and eating his own rice can nourish his body. No amount of money can buy a good body.

However, Wei Jingze made an agreement with Jiang Yanzong that his family's rice would also be harvested from Jiang Yanzong's place, and all the bran that Jiang Yanzong and the others produced would be given to Wei Jingze. Wei Jingze wanted to pay for it, but Jiang Yanzong didn't want it. Wei Jingze kept this favor in his heart.

When the millet was being weighed, many people from the village came to watch, and some people asked: "Mr. Jiang? Are you really giving me three hundred and one load?"

Jiang Yanzong nodded: "As long as the millet is as good as theirs, I'll give you three hundred and one load. If it's better, I can charge even more!"

The onlookers couldn't help discussing what they said, how could the price be higher?Can Mr. Jiang still make money?

After weighing the rice, Jiang Yanzong took his computer and swiped the money, and directly transferred the money into Wei Jingze's account, leaving everyone in awe. No need to give the real money, just all at once?

Wei Jingze said: "This way of transferring money can avoid receiving counterfeit money, and you don't have to go to the bank to deposit it yourself. Putting the money in the bank can also earn interest, which is better than leaving it at home to breed worms."

Of course, the city people's concept of financial management is that saving money in the bank is the worst way, but for rural people who just want to be safe, it is a very good way.

Everyone suddenly realized that this is indeed the case. The money stored in the bank cannot be counterfeit money, right?

Wei Jingze’s family’s millet sold for nearly 3 yuan, which caused a great shock to everyone. Suddenly, many people came to the old man’s place to learn how to farm without chemical fertilizers or pesticides, and they were able to obtain such a good harvest.

As always, the old man kept his secrets and told everyone how to plant them.

By the end of July, the late rice had been planted. I was relieved and at the same time prepared to harvest peanuts, beans, and sesame seeds in August. I used to grow them for my own food, but now I have a good place to go. , everyone paid more attention to it.

Wei Jingze finally found out about the construction of a biogas digester.

The construction of biogas digesters is actually a matter supported by the government. It supports the recycling of energy in rural areas and reduces waste and pollution. However, because the cost is too high, many farmers are unwilling, so the promotion is not very smooth.

Wei Jingze has inquired. There are several prices for building a biogas digester. Of course, the more expensive the better, and the government also provides subsidies for biogas digesters at different prices. For example, if you build a biogas digester that costs 3000 yuan , The government may have a subsidy of 1000 yuan. Of course, it may be troublesome to apply, just like the case of Wei Jingze running the reservoir, but the policy is clearly written and the subsidy will be provided.

As for these policies, if Wei Jingze didn't check the Internet and go out to inquire and confirm, it is estimated that in a few years, Chashui Village would not know about it.

Wei Jingze deeply felt that the current countryside really seemed to be a little out of touch with the outside world.

After checking the information, Wei Jingze discussed this matter with the old man. The old man was very supportive of this matter. He let Wei Jingze make up his own mind. He didn't quite understand it, but Wei Jingze still wanted to tell the old man about it. After all, the old man is the one who is in charge of the house.

The old man is also willing to listen, although he can't understand it very well, he just sighs that people nowadays are really smart, and even useless dung can be used for cooking.

Wei Jingze chose a biogas digester with a price of [-] yuan, which is more in line with the situation at home in terms of size and materials.

The old man said: "It's still hot in August, why don't we wait until September, when the work will be easier for the masters."

Wei Jingze thinks the same, August is also extremely hot, and it is easy to get hot and suffer from heat stroke. In September, when the farming is slack, it will be easier to work.

In August, the second time the money was distributed, this time it was a little more than the last time, everyone was very happy, only two months of work, each family has earned several thousand, and many have already tens of thousands , Tens of thousands are basically selling chickens, ducks, geese and pigs. Nowadays, people still like to eat meat.

After distributing the money, Wei Jingze told everyone about the biogas tank again. Sure enough, not many people responded, and Wei Jingze didn't say much. Anyway, it's still based on their own opinions. Not someone who likes to persuade people.

Before the meeting adjourned, the village head mentioned that Uncle Wutang’s family had sold their own pigs as their own. The village head was an elder and a leader, so it was hard to refute it.Fortunately, Huang Ting has gone to find her husband now, otherwise she doesn't know what to do.

Those who want to build biogas digesters, after the meeting, asked Wei Jingze about this aspect, and Wei Jingze explained it clearly, convincing everyone that it is better to make more expensive, safer, and longer-lasting ones. .

"It's an old house now, and it will be scrapped to build a new one in the future. Will this one have to be rebuilt?"

Wei Jingze said: "Of course you don't need it. When you're building a house, you can ask the master to help you repair a stove outside and cook for you!"

After asking about all the details, the crowd dispersed contentedly, and Wei Jingze also went back with the old man.

On the way, the old man talked about raising ducks.

Because of the double rush in July, the matter of raising ducks was postponed first. Now that it has passed, this matter should be picked up.

"Do you have anything to do tomorrow? If it's okay, let's go pick some ducks?"

The old man walked slowly with a cigarette in his mouth and his hands behind his back, and said, "I don't have anything to do tomorrow, and I don't know if Duck Li is still at home. I'm afraid he's gone out to sell ducks."

"There is always a wife and mother at home, right? Let's go to the door to choose, and we can choose better ones."

The old man thought for a while and was reasonable, so he agreed.

Duck Li specializes in raising ducks nearby. Somewhere in the lower reaches of the river, the family sells ducks, duck eggs, and ducklings.
