In my days as a farmer
Chapter 18
The time came to mid-April when Xia Dongli was looking forward to the rapid rise of the temperature day and night.
In this season, down jackets have been taken off in most parts of South China, and short-sleeves may be worn in the daytime in the further south, but cotton-padded jackets and trousers are still indispensable in Xiaojin Village.
Xia Dongli changed Xiaokang into the small clothes that his father had sent over thousands of miles away, and was just about to take a picture with Xiaokang in his arms to show the lonely and cold old Xu, when he vaguely heard calling.
He poked his head out of the window and saw Assistant Li standing downstairs, and hurriedly shouted down.Assistant Xiao Li had already stretched out his paws towards Xiaobaa. After Xia Dongli made a sound, he even jumped forward and hugged Xiaobaa who raised his head in response.
The young man suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes. He smiled and waved at him while stroking the sheep: "Don't worry, just go slowly."
Xia Dongli glanced at the lamb who was kicking its little hoof and was bleating until it was rubbed, then at Comrade Xiao Li who had lowered his head to concentrate on sucking the sheep, and then at Comrade Xiao Li who had stepped back a few steps and looked like he had nothing to do with me Rice, suddenly a little speechless.
Although the guests seemed to enjoy it, Xia Dongli still had to hurry up and go downstairs to open the door. This was a matter of courtesy.
As he walked quickly to the door, he added buying a doorbell to his to-do list in his mind.The small building was originally just a place for resting temporarily, no one would visit the door, and there was no doorbell. Xia Dongli had lived in it for a few months and no one came. He didn't think of it for a while. Now it seems It is indeed a little inconvenient.
Since he wanted to buy a doorbell, he might as well place an order together and buy the monitor, Xia Dongli thought.The surveillance brand he was looking at before seemed to sell a doorbell with a camera. Although the price was a bit expensive, it claimed to have infrared night vision and could be connected to a mobile phone.
When someone rings the doorbell, even if he is on the second floor, he will be able to see who is at the door through his mobile phone, and he can still have a conversation. It will be very beautiful to think about it.
Assistant Xiao Li came this time to deliver an organic fertilizer group purchase order.
The country now strongly supports the use of organic fertilizers to replace traditional chemical fertilizers, but organic fertilizers are slow to take effect and expensive. In order to encourage farmers, they can now get subsidies for buying organic fertilizers.
The province where Xiaojin Village is located also has organic fertilizer subsidies, and the price is very beautiful after the two phases are superimposed.But to get the subsidy, it is inevitable to provide various information and documents. This kind of thing will make the young people feel overwhelmed, let alone the elderly.
"There are a lot of elderly people in our village, so it is troublesome to fill out the application every year, so the village committee can buy it for you after discussing it. We know what information is needed to fill in the application, so that the factory can provide it at one time without running back and forth."
Assistant Xiao Li introduced to Xia Dongli: "Last year we bought cake fertilizer, but this year we chose animal fertilizer. This is provided by a state-owned farm in the next county, and the quality is guaranteed. And because it is testing the water, the price is also cheap. There are cow dung, sheep dung, chicken dung.”
Xia Dongli took the document and glanced at the price and was a little surprised. He had actually read the relevant information on the Internet before, and the price on the list is now [-]% cheaper than the retail price he saw online.
Seeing his surprise, Assistant Li smiled. He changed his posture on the small bench and said, "It's very troublesome to make animal manure. It tastes great and requires a place, so before it was done by a special manufacturer. a small monopoly."
"However, the price of livestock feed has risen in the past two years. In order to make up for this part of the cost, the farm can only try to open source. The director of this factory said that they used the new strain provided by the brother unit, which is faster and faster than before. more evenly."
"Their company is promoting now, and we are neighbors next door, so this is a preferential price." Assistant Li took out a bag of sealed dark brown solids from a plastic bag and handed it to Xia Dongli, "This It is cow manure, which is also their main recommendation. This farm mainly raises dairy cows, which are fed with pasture soybeans and mineral water, and the fertilizer is very good.”
Xia Dongli, who was still a city boy a few months ago, would never have been able to take this bag of soil without changing his face, but now he has experienced too much, and his threshold has obviously been raised, and mere manure can no longer move him.
After Xia Dongli took it, he took a look, and even opened the seal and leaned over to smell it.
He only smelled a faint smell of grass, almost no smell, and it didn't smell bad. He pinched it again, and it was quite loose, with a slight foreign body feeling, which should be the remaining fibers from decomposition.
He thinks this fat is good, but... "Assistant Li, how much do you think I should buy?"
Assistant Li looked at the plowed land outside and said: "Usually, if you use pure organic fertilizer for one mu of land, you need to use about 1.5 tons of organic fertilizer, but the quality of the soil here is not very good. It is recommended that you prepare 1.8 tons and do it in batches. Sow it down and raise it slowly."
He also added: "Don't look at the large amount. The effect of organic fertilizer is different from that of chemical fertilizer. It works slowly, mainly because the fertile land is not for plants. It is no problem to grow fertilizer on other land."
Xia Dongli understood this truth. He did a rough calculation and found that 1.8 tons per mu would require a total of 23 tons. Multiply the unit price and subtract the subsidy. The personal expenditure is about 2000 yuan, which is completely acceptable.
Xia Dongli took out his mobile phone and scanned the QR code to pay the deposit.He scraped together and bought 25 tons of cow dung, not afraid of too much. After all, he also raised earthworms. If the cow dung was really useless, he could feed the earthworms.
Assistant Xiao Li was very interested in the earthworms he was talking about. He followed him to visit Xia Dongli's breeding base for earthworms and barley worms. He even reached in and pulled the soil to observe the size of the red earthworms.
Xia Dongli, who had only dared to mess with his chopsticks so far, was in awe of his actions.
"What is this?" Assistant Li smiled and looked for earthworm eggs in the soil, "My hometown is in Yunnan and Guizhou, and there are so many insects in the north..."
He smiled slightly, and Xia Dongli, the northern baby, saw a trace of contempt on his gentle face.
He, he, he, he, he, he, he, he dare not ask any more questions.
After seeing the two breeding tanks, Assistant Xiao Li also went to visit the septic tank that was already working hard, and the kitten fish that lived in the small pond that was only as deep as a palm so far.
The vitality of this fish is extremely tenacious, and it is distributed in waters across the country by virtue of its high tolerance and adaptability to water quality.Although the convincing power of using these fish to prove that the water in the small pond is safe is really not strong, but at least it proves that the domestic sewage treated by the purification tank is better than its direct discharge, which meets Xia Dongli's needs .
Assistant Li was also very satisfied with the condition of the pool. He even knelt down and sniffed the small pool, "It hasn't rained recently, and now all the water you keep is domestic sewage?"
Xia Dongli, who was frightened by the village official's sudden action, could only nod with a stiff face.Seeing him like this, Assistant Li couldn't help but narrowed his eyes with a smile: "That's right, the purification effect is quite good, now wait for the rainy season to come and your pool will be full soon, and then I'll collect some data and send it up."
Speaking of the rainy season, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone, "By the way, I saw a rainwater harvesting device two days ago. I think it's not bad for you to install this."
What caught Xia Dongli's eyes was a stainless steel oval cylinder. This cylinder was placed half a person's height above the ground, and it was connected to two outlets, one of which was connected to a hose.
Assistant Li pointed to the place where the water tank is obviously the water inlet. There is a metal device there, "This is the water diversion port. The collected rainwater will first enter the collector, and the excess rainwater will enter the purification tank when it is full."
"Then you can use the collected rainwater directly to wash the cages." Assistant Li pointed to the few cages that are still vacant with his thumb, "It's much more convenient than pumping water from the pool."
Makes sense.
This is a good suggestion. Xia Dongli immediately asked Assistant Li to send the picture to himself, and planned to upgrade his rainwater collection system to a lower level.
Seeing his support, Assistant Xiao Li was also very happy, "You have to hurry up, the rainy season in our Xiaojin Village will come in a few days, and it will be inconvenient to do anything then."
Xia Dongli listened, and as soon as Assistant Li left, he drove all the small animals that had been having fun outside back indoors, and then drove to the county town to order a collection bucket.On the way back, he saw that there were rarely live fish for sale, so he hurriedly took two of them back to make soup, and shared some of the fish with rice and Xiaokang.Both were very supportive and licked the basin clean with great interest.
When throwing fish scales and viscera, Xia Dongli had an idea, and thought of the method of retting fish intestines that was circulated on the Internet. According to legend, this is the TOP1 retting method, especially good for flowers, but smelly...
Hmm~ Anyway, his place is spacious, so the smell should be a little bit, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
Even though he thought so, Xia Dongli still found a leeward place and dug a hole to bury it. In order to prevent dogs from digging, he also sprinkled some orange peels in the soil. Rice doesn't like oranges, and the smell of oranges will avoid.
After burying the pit, Xia Dongli turned on his mobile phone to search for messages while walking back, but for some reason, Xia Dongli felt that Xiao Baa was in a bad mood today, and often nodded up and down very much, as if drinking fake wine.
After a rough look on the Internet, I didn't see any other sheep with similar problems, so Xia Dongli hurriedly sent a post for help.The netizens were very enthusiastic, but he flipped through several pages, and the more he talked about it, the more mysterious he became. He even said that it might be caused by parasites, which made Xia Dongli nervous immediately.
Parasites are almost the deadly enemy of all animals, especially young ones who cannot resist the deworming medicine, and are almost terminally ill.
But he really couldn't figure it out, how could Xiaobaa get parasites if he was kept at home in a good way.
This worry didn't stop until he saw the lamb pushing towards Xiaokang with his own eyes at night.
At that time, Xiaokang pig was eating Chinese cabbage for supper. Suddenly, he saw Xiaobaa and ran over, and then desperately stuffed his head under Xiaokang's belly. Xiaokang pig, who was eating happily, gave up his seat to him Unexpectedly, the little baa who successfully stuffed the melon into his head stomped his little hoof and raised his head sharply.
"Xi--" After a scream, Xiaokang Pig actually jumped up. It ran to the side for a few steps, and looked back at Xiaobaa walking away with high-spirited strides in bewilderment and bewilderment.
Xia Dongli paused, and changed the keyword on his phone to "lamb with the top of his head". The video that appeared after swiping Lala opened up a new world for him.
Sheep go up the wall, goats buttocks with horns, goats kick people, goats eat chickens...
Well, so brutal.
Xia Dongli, who has always believed that sheep is a kind of docile and cute animal since he was a child, was shocked. He hesitated and turned his attention to the bleating little baa, who seemed very satisfied with the fact that he had mastered a new attack method , is improving proficiency with the slippers on the head.
……what happened?His forefoot is still a cute pet who "came to trick me into raising sheep again", why did he suddenly turn to the current situation?
The little baa who successfully flipped the slipper upside down once again let out a proud roar of the king: "咩~~~~"
The author has something to say: the evolution of the baa-baa-baa-baa-baa-beast with horns on its head!
