Love delays my farming

The troublesome human race fed the pigs, and then took Shuhu to live in the second small building.As for the horses he brought, they will be released directly into the wild. As long as the vegetables and food are not spoiled, the whole island can play freely.

Grandpa Chu took his cattle and sheep out for a walk, followed by a few foals and pony horses.This little thing is not much bigger than a sheep, each one is lively and coquettish, but it makes Grandpa Chu very happy.He hugged this one and touched the other, looking sour in his heart, and finally just nestled in Grandpa Chu's arms and did not move.

Why, I am also a cute little lamb!

Ying Wei and the others completely occupied the kitchen, directly causing Grandma Chu to lose her job.The unemployed old lady hugged the cat and took the pig, picked some vegetables for a while, and looked at the chickens for a while, her eyes were full of handsome, beautiful and energetic young people, and her own male god.This day is going well, and the gods are nothing more than this.

After delivering the dishes to Boss Zhuang and eating breakfast, Chu Yao put on water pants, put on two masks, and silently lucked out with a shovel in his hand.

The work of planting vegetables and digging saplings is simple manual work, which is quickly assigned.Because of the privilege, Mr. Ju helped pick up eggs and quail eggs, so he started chatting with Grandma Chu while helping to chop vegetables and leaves.

Only Chu Yao stood beside the biogas pit, looking at the bubbling garbage inside, with resistance written all over his body.

Because they couldn't use the biogas for the time being, they removed the biogas pipe.Now the pool is full of fermented feces and various food wastes. Not only is the color weird, but the smell is also very weird.It doesn't smell bad, but it smells bad.

But the manure fermented in this pond is also the best fertilizer. After a while, winter wheat will be planted, and the vegetables in the greenhouse also need to be fertilized.Because the wasteland is getting more and more open, the chicken manure and bird manure are not enough, and the best fertilizer is the stuff from this pond.

only……

"Hey!" Chu Yao kept retching, not to mention him, even Long Jiu, who was thinking about clinging to him, silently retreated several meters away, not daring to look at those things.

He, dignified Zhu Jiuyin, has never seen such a world! !

"No, I give up." Chu Yao threw away the shovel, found a rock upwind and sat down for a long time, then took out his mobile phone and asked Village Chief Kang for help, "Uncle, I really can't handle these things, can you help me?" Should I ask someone to clean it up? I'll pay."

Village Chief Kang laughed out loud, and after laughing for a long time, he said: "What a big deal, you and Uncle Shunzi will get it done in a day. You can give us half of the manure you covered later, no money. How about it?"

Fertilizer is a good thing in the countryside. Although there are chemical fertilizers and pesticides now, old farmers actually prefer farmyard manure.This long-fermented manure fertilizer was mixed with the soil for a month, and the heat in it was enough to burn the eggs to death, and then applied to the ground. Vegetables and food grew well.

For those who raise pigs and cattle, a car of manure can be sold for a lot of money.

"Okay, okay!!" Chu Yao nodded frantically, hung up the phone, looked back at the biogas pond, couldn't help groaning again, and ran away in embarrassment.

Now he especially wants those guys who are envious of rural life to come and have a look, what is yearning for the countryside, not to mention farming and pulling weeds, just cleaning this thing may scare away 90.00% of the cultural young men and women who have always cultivated their sentiments.

Long Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, then followed behind Chu Yao and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Chu Yao: ...

He took off his water pants and took off his mask, wondering if the young master was making fun of him.

Village head Kang came soon with his brothers carrying tools.He has been dealing with the land for half his life, and without Chu Yao's efforts, he put on water pants and a mask and started working.

They chose a place not far from the biogas tank to pour a layer of soil first, then put the excrement in the tank into buckets, and then poured it on the soil over there.A layer of dung water and a layer of soil are piled up high to form a hill, and finally the whole dung mountain is firmly buried with soil, and it can be used after burying it for a month.

The pool was big enough, the two of them didn't eat lunch, and were busy until the afternoon.Said to be a skilled worker, but doing this kind of work is also disgusting. After washing the water pants and bucket, the two of them took out a bottle of distilled water and took a few sips each to relieve the sourness in their stomachs. Press it down.

"Go back after eating, you have to stay for dinner." Grandpa Chu held one hand and wouldn't let anyone go. If they do so much hard work and don't need money, they need some dung. If they don't stay for dinner, it would be too unkind.Not only did he stay for dinner, but he also asked Grandpa Chu to drag him to the bathroom, where he took a good hot bath.

Village Chief Kang and Kang Yongshun, the elders in the village, usually take a bath, and just boil two pots of hot water to scrub and scrub.Now that I have taken a fragrant bath and put on the clean clothes brought by Grandpa Chu, I feel a little uncomfortable.

"Just did some work, look at this..." Village Chief Kang touched the clothes on his body, and his face was wrinkled with a smile.

Although these are Grandpa Chu's old clothes, the quality is indeed good. They are soft and close-fitting from the inside to the outside, clean and comfortable. How can you dislike them just because they are second-hand?

"It's just a little bit of work. If we let the group of us do it, I'm afraid we won't be able to understand it until next year." Grandpa Chu said.

Before it was time for dinner, Village Chief Kang and the others couldn't sit still and said they wanted to help look at the dishes.Pointing out that the Chinese cabbage must be tied with rope to wrap the heart, and the sweet potato must be dug out before the frost, otherwise it will be easy to freeze.In the end, seeing that their leeks were growing well, I asked for another bag of leek roots and planned to plant them at home.

Leek is a vegetable that can grow very well. The seeds can be cut one by one when the seeds are scattered, and the roots can be dug out and transplanted to grow one by one, which is very convenient.There is only one thing. This thing likes to attract bugs. When the water is too hot and the weather is hot, it will rot into the ground accidentally. It is very sticky and disgusting.However, the leeks here are well taken care of, each one is smooth, thick and tender, and the special aroma of leeks can be smelled from afar.

Chu Yao filled a basket with a lot of leek roots. A thick layer of chicken manure was placed under the basket, and a layer of vegetable roots was piled on top of the basket. Throw it back layer by layer and throw it into the ground to thrive.

Now there are three greenhouses on the island, two for growing vegetables and one for raising birds.There are five acres of rice fields, and there was only one mu of wheat before, but now there are three more acres of land, and four acres of winter wheat have to be planted.However, there are more and more people on the island. Chu Yao thinks that there may be more and more "friends of Dragon Nine" who will come to the island in the future, so he stepped up to open up wasteland, and will plant three acres of rice in the coming year.

In addition to these grains, there are also one mu of pumpkins, one mu of sweet potatoes, one mu of corn, half an mu of potatoes, and scattered soybeans that add up to almost half an mu of land.

In half a month, the soybeans will be harvested. Some of these beans will be kept for making soymilk, and the other part will be used for oil extraction.So many people eat too much oil, so they have to store more by themselves.

There are also all kinds of vegetables grown in the corners, and there are only seven or eight kinds of beans, such as Dutch beans, lentils, kidney beans, cowpeas, beans, kidney beans, mung beans, red beans, broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, rapeseed, winter melon, gourd, gourd, fennel, leeks, cilantro, and celery. , carrots, white radishes, green radishes, heart-shaped radishes, and green onions, ginger, and garlic.As long as the vegetable seeds can be found in the town, they are basically planted one by one.

There are enough vegetables and eggs at home, but meat is a bit difficult.It didn't take long before I had to buy some meat from the town, causing a group of people to look at the group of pigs in the pigpen and start to feel itchy.

It's just that this kind of pigs don't like to grow meat, and they don't eat feed. Although they are raised in captivity, they are much smaller than large white pigs that produce meat.However, the gilt is almost grown up, and will enter the mature stage in one month. You can find a handsome boar for life exchange.

Village head Kang, who has a boar, has helped to choose it. It is the family that bought the pig before, saying that they want to choose the most handsome and healthy boar for the sister sow here.The new batch of piglets born in the future will be planned for free-range breeding. Chu Yao has already selected a place, which is a valley in the mountain behind the house.There are water, wild fruits, and small caves suitable for hiding from the rain. When the time comes, go there on time and add a meal to implement the free-range policy.

It's just that Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei's partner has not yet been found. Although these two dogs are the most common Chinese garden dogs, they have eaten well and grown strong. Now they have become majestic big dogs. Can't see their eyes.Village head Kang also brought a couple of little bitches for a blind date before. Unfortunately, the little girl was very attentive, but Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei were so stubborn that they drove the girls all over the mountain. They were simply born single dogs.

In the evening, I simply fried a few dishes, but I also fried a large plate of quail and loach to go with the wine.

Grandpa Chu and Village Chief Kang went from planting the land to planting vegetables, watching the sky, eating, and talking about national affairs. They ate a meal for more than two hours. In the end, Chu Yao and Qubo sent the dizzy Village Chief Kang and his brothers back to the village. .

The old people in the village basically raise quails, separate the big ones from the small ones, set aside a place in the yard, and let those quails fly and run away.Because they are all female quails, they are very quiet, but the soil in the yard has been dug up badly, and they have to change places every two quails.

However, these quails have become the hope of the old people. After all, they can earn about a thousand yuan a month, which was a good thing that they could not have imagined before.

When Chu Yao sent Village Chief Kang home, the village chief's wife stuffed a big bag with home-steamed old noodle buns.This kind of steamed bun is big and yellowish in color, but it tastes particularly chewy and has a strong aroma of wheat.

No one on the island knows how to make noodles and steam steamed buns. Before steaming steamed buns, it was the help of the villagers.After that, there are dumplings with stuffing, and I don’t even have to eat noodles.Chu Yao liked this bag of steamed buns very much, and planned to eat fried buns tomorrow.

Sliced ​​steamed buns are wrapped in egg liquid and deep-fried in a frying pan until they are golden. Take them out and eat them with sauced tofu and pickles. It is delicious.

After all the calculations, he has been here for so long, and he didn't eat a slice of steamed buns just once, which is really pitiful.

After Yuhu came, there were no new people on the island. After the fruit trees were transplanted, the weather became colder day by day.

The persimmons and hawthorns in the mountains are already beautifully colored. It is not difficult for a group of people to open a simple road with hatchets. There are sixty or seventy persimmon trees in the ravine. It is very tall, and the tree is covered with fist-sized Mopan persimmons, which are so heavy that the branches are bent down.

Hawthorn trees also come from one to the other, and I saw dozens of them along the way, dotted with bright red on the hillside.

These two kinds of fruit trees are both resistant to cold and drought, but I don't know whether they were planted before or originally grown on the island. Anyway, they have become large-scale now.Moreover, there are more than these two kinds of fruit trees in the deep mountains. Many chestnut trees and walnut trees have also been found, and many mushroom fungus have been found on those decayed and dead trunks.

Otherwise, the old people say that green mountains and green waters are golden mountains and silver waters, and there are really many treasures in these mountains.It's just that if the treasures can't be shipped out and exchanged for money, they won't be valued at this time.

All the horses, big and small, from the Yuhu area went into battle, and there was also the only bull on the island among them.Brother Huang Niu is less than two years old and not yet an adult, and his body is relatively tender, but he is not small because of his good food and drink, so he can do a lot of work.

Brother Niu put in a lot of effort to transport the fruit down the mountain before, and it wasn't until the tricycle bought by Chu Yao that he transported it to the island before he could rest.But the mountain roads here are all freshly opened, and the tricycles can't get on, so Brother Niu can only go back to his old business and work diligently to transport goods.

Baskets of persimmons, walnuts, and hawthorns were transported along the winding mountain road to the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. The wife of Village Chief Kang brought several women to help, and taught Grandma Chu and Wang Xishan how to make persimmon persimmon sauce and crispy persimmons.Ripe persimmons cannot be stored, and must be processed when they are hard.The processed dried persimmons and crispy persimmons can be transported to the town one after another to sell, and at least they can be exchanged for some money.

As for hawthorn, cook hawthorn sauce directly or cut open and dry hawthorn, chestnuts and walnuts can be stored, just put them in the storage room, and eat at any time.

However, there were quite a few of these things. Boss Zhuang drove over when he heard about them, picked the best ones and loaded them into the car, which relieved the pressure a little.

Boss Zhuang's quail business has not been fully started, mainly because the source of shipments is really not strong.There are other quail sellers who want to cooperate with the owner of the village, but the quails of the same species are compared and compared immediately, which immediately makes the quails in Taoyuan Village more sought-after.

If it weren't for Boss Zhuang's strict control, these originally inconspicuous female quails would have become tools for second-hand dealers to make money.However, the male quail can be regarded as keeping up with it anyway. Twenty cans of quail soup can be produced in the hotel every day, and there are serious and regular users.

However, the publicity of quail also made Taoyuan Village into the eyes of others. If such a good quail can be raised, how can others be worse?It's just that the things produced in Taoyuan Village are basically consumed by Boss Zhuang. Even if they are willing to drive for more than two hours to go around the mountain road, they may not be able to receive good things. They all broke up in the end.

After all, the village is full of old people, and the productivity is really lacking, even if you want to do more, you can't get it out.

The old people in the village are waiting for the New Year. After the young people in the family come back, I hope they can see hope in the village and be willing to stay.If you can make money by staying at home, who wants to go out and work hard at the risk of being cheated?

Most of the people in the village are not well-educated. I have heard that many people have been cheated. After working on the construction site for a year, their wages are not settled, and they can hardly afford to eat.

Not to mention those who work in the factory, the "blessings" of 996 and 997 are so overwhelming that they can hardly hold their heads up. Every day the factory dormitory goes round and round, and it costs only a few thousand yuan a month.

Chu Yao hatched hundreds of new quails for himself in a small incubator. After all, he has a big shed, so he can raise as many quails as he can.Now the quail eggs in Taoyuan Village have become Zou Qiaohuo because they are big and beautiful. Only Boss Zhuang and his brother Boss Zhou sell them in the store.

Although they are all quail eggs, but I don't know why, the quail eggs from Taoyuan Village are boiled, and the children at home like to eat them.Cooking a few quail eggs for breakfast every day for children and the elderly at home has almost become a benchmark.There are even children who will take boiled or marinated quail eggs to school and eat them slowly in front of their classmates. They will be greedy for those who can’t grab the eggs, so they proudly give them one or two .

After domestic quail, this quail egg has become a new show off vane.

The technician surnamed Ding who came to help with the greenhouse before took away a cage of quail and some dried fruit and jam from Chu Yao with the help of "his position", and they were all robbed at home.

The caged quail has become the favorite "pet" of his daughter and son. Every day, he carefully cleans up the excrement, feeds and waters, and then picks up the quail eggs and puts them in a small jar with satisfaction, counting them every day.Because of this jar of quail eggs, even the ability to count has improved a lot.

Later, because the children of the brother's family wanted to share two, as a result, the two children ignored him for half a month.The good dad turned into a bad dad because of the two quails, which made him dumbfounded.

But quails are really hard to deal with. Now he is looking forward to Chu Yao's installation of one or two more sheds, so he can try to "take advantage" of the nearest one.

But this time when I went to the town, I found that Boss Zhou had bought a lot of chestnuts and walnuts, which indicated that they were produced on the mountain and sea island of Taoyuan Village.

"Is it really from that island?" Xiao Ding was secretly happy when he saw that there were not many people buying it.

Boss Zhou is not worried about selling these things when he arrives. After all, chestnuts and walnuts are no better than quail eggs. These things are all raw, and it is troublesome to buy them back and have to process them again.Quail eggs are much simpler. It only takes 10 minutes to wash and boil them.

"That's necessary." Boss Zhou pulled out the photos on his phone and showed him, "Look, I just picked them from the mountain, and before I finished picking them, I asked my brother to bring a few baskets here to help them sell them. They are all good things, and if you want to eat them after this batch is sold out, you will have to wait until next year."

After all, Xiao Ding has been to the island and met the people on the island.Even with their eyes closed, these handsome guys couldn't admit their mistakes.Others picked mountain goods and looked like very simple farmers. This group of people walked the mountain road like a catwalk show. Coupled with those tall horses, it seemed that these dry goods were worth a lot of money.

He immediately grabbed the bag and started to pack it. While loading it, he said, "You should release this photo and let others see it like Boss Zhuang. The things will be easy to sell."

Boss Zhou laughed loudly and said, "Do you think I'm worried about selling it? If it wasn't here, my relatives would have already divided this thing. Xiao Chu said that he must first get rid of their reputation, otherwise the village You can’t even see anything produced on the island.”

"From Taoyuan Village?" Uncle Song looked at the broken cardboard boards next to him, and directly pulled a bag and began to pack chestnuts and walnuts, "I said Xiao Zhou, you are not good at doing business, so who are you going to give these three small characters to?" Look? If I didn't know that you often have some good things here, I would have been fooled by you."

Boss Zhou chuckled and said, "Sir, don't talk about it. When did you lose something? Even if you don't come, I have to leave a few catties for you, right? By the way, do you want quail eggs today? I just delivered them, and I Fifty catties were weighed here, and the rest was taken away by Lao Zhuang."

"You fat man, why do you earn so much money?" Uncle Song said angrily, "Yes, give me three catties. I just bought a few pig's trotters at home, and they just happen to be stewed in a pot."

"There are also persimmons. The crunchy persimmons are big and sweet. How about some?" Boss Zhou asked, pointing to a few baskets of persimmons next to him.

"My blood sugar is high..." Uncle Song hesitated.

Xiao Ding packed two bags of dried fruit and weighed them. When he saw the persimmons, he asked, "Is it from Taoyuan Village?"

"Didn't you see all the photos just now? It's over there." Boss Zhou took one and peeled it with a knife, and then cut a piece for each of them. "Taste it, it's crunchy, like rock sugar."

Persimmons are not really a new product here, and many people who have yards at home will have some.Some places are greened, and the whole street is planted with persimmon trees, which not only bear fruit, but are also beautiful.

But persimmons are too high in sugar, and they will fall down when they are ripe. The sticky ground attracts insects, and persimmons are easy to attract insects without spraying, which is troublesome.

If the baskets of persimmons and hawthorns piled up next to them hadn't been marked with the word Taoyuan Village, they wouldn't have attracted people's attention.

Xiao Ding's eyes lit up after eating the crispy persimmons, "Give me a few catties of persimmons too, but I can't eat too much of these things, hey."

Uncle Song also bought a few hesitantly. He and his wife are both old and their blood sugar is unstable.Persimmons are too sweet, and this big persimmon can directly burst blood sugar.However, his little grandson and granddaughter came to play these few days, so it happened to be a snack.You can also buy some hawthorn, which can not only stew meat, but also boil water to digest food and lower blood pressure.

Boss Zhou said: "The crispy persimmons have only been eaten for a few days. Their family has started to dry persimmons and hawthorns now. They can't help but put them fresh. They are all eaten fresh. When the persimmons are really ripe, they will not be able to be shipped outside. That’s right, the mountain road was bumpy for two hours, and I can only drink soup when I come down.”

Uncle Song laughed a few times, and weighed two catties of hawthorn.

What Boss Zhou said was right. There seemed to be a lot of these things piled up here, but many customers who came to Taoyuan Village bought a lot of them, and they basically bottomed out before noon.

Xiao Ding went back to work from the town to sign in, and the big bags and small parcels in his hand were followed by people, "You went to Lingshan Town today? It's not a big market there today, why do you buy so many dry goods? Is it cheap? It won’t sink this way?”

Xiao Ding laughed and laughed and said, "Hey, I just bought some fresh products from my hometown. The children at home like to eat them."

The colleague stared at him for a while, and said: "Tsk, look at you, you are nervous, last time you brought dried quail, it was from a fellow villager, but I asked if it came from Taoyuan Village, and now it is only for Lingshan Township The Dragon and Phoenix Hotel, right? Your boy... this thing is also there, right?"

"It's really not, I just bought it on the road." Xiao Ding hurriedly packed the pile of things.

The colleague rolled his eyes and brought out two persimmons, "Sell us two, and I'll give you five yuan."

"I just bought a few!!" Xiao Ding wailed, "For the children to eat, why are you trying to grab food from the children?"

The colleague quickly ran away and shouted: "Who is not a baby anymore? I'll just eat you two persimmons. Take a look at you. Zhang Ke Zhang Ke, Xiao Ding bought dry goods from Taoyuan Village!!"

Xiao Ding fought desperately, and finally left some food for his children. He reluctantly held a few banknotes and said angrily, "You guys are deceiving people too much. Is it easy for me to snatch something from such a long distance?"

Zhang Ke peeled off the persimmon with a smile and ate it, and said as he ate, "This crispy persimmon is sweet, sweet and crisp, and I don't know how to raise it. Be careful, Xiao Ding, and you won't have your share in Taoyuan Village on a business trip." gone."

Xiao Ding: ...

What can I say? ?

Zhang Ke ate the persimmons, sighed and said, "Those villages are really good, but they are too far away. There are mountains on both sides of the waterway, and it is far away, and it is difficult to transport goods by mountain road. Otherwise, there will be no poverty alleviation with that road." be richer."

Xiao Ding also said: "That's not it. I went to help press the shed over there. The village is full of old people and hardly sees a few young ones. There are quite a few young people on that island, but they are all there to play. It is impossible to settle down in the mountains. Just Xiao Chu, Xiao Chu Chuyao, the contractor on that island is a good guy, and he found a way to make money for the elderly in the village. He raised quail and sold quail, which seemed okay."

Zhang Ke nodded and said: "Raising quails is also a way. I asked the higher-ups to see if there were any technicians who raised quails, and I assigned one later to see how I could help them raise quails. The mountains are beautiful and the water is good." Yes, farming is indeed a way out.”

Their department is all related to poverty alleviation, racking their brains every day to do something practical for the common people.In fact, many villages that are convenient to enter and exit from the town have gradually become richer. Whether it is growing vegetables or flowers, at least it is convenient for people to transport them abroad.

Not to mention Taoyuan Village, the villages near the town that benefited from that road have made more or less money, but the villages of Taoyuan Village and Panshi Village are too far away.Fishing next to the lake is difficult to transport out, and it is also difficult to transport them back if they cannot be sold. The market for fresh fish will not go smoothly.

In the past, there were also young people who set up greenhouses at home to grow vegetables. When the vegetables were ripe, there was heavy rain and the mountain roads were difficult to walk.Those fresh vegetables lost a lot of money if they couldn't be shipped out in one day. In the end, they lost the money and simply quit, and went out to work again.

The advantage of raising quail and selling it is that it doesn't delay things, and it won't break down a few days sooner or later, and it can also stimulate the business of bamboo cages in the nearby village, killing two birds with one stone.In fact, it's not that they haven't thought about breeding before, but whether it's ordinary Chinese quail or those free-range chickens and ducks, it's better to transport them near the town.Those villages suffer because the mountain road is too far and too troublesome.

"Xiao Ding, you have a good relationship with Xiao Chu. He will tell you what technical needs he has, and we will try our best to meet them here. I think their children are pretty good, they have brains, and they dare to innovate. They are better than us. Brains are much stronger." Zhang Ke sighed again, then grabbed a handful of hawthorns and began to eat.

Xiao Ding: ...

He silently fastened the bags of all the things into dead buttons, and he didn't intend to let them smell the smell!

In addition to hatching quail, Chu Yao also set his sights on a small pet chicken called Selama.This kind of small chicken is actually not much different from those large chickens in appearance, but an adult rooster weighs more than a catty, and a hen is smaller, only slightly larger than a quail.

But this kind of chicken can still satisfy those who live in a building without a yard to use the space on the balcony to raise it. It does not take up space, and it is round and looks good.And after all, it is a chicken, and a hen can lay eggs for four or five years, so it looks much stronger than a quail.

It's just that the breeding eggs of this kind of chicken are expensive, and the adult chicken is even more expensive, and it is still not up to the economic chicken species.But he can hatch some by himself, raise them for fun, and sell them to rich people who like to raise chickens.However, quail is still better for economical breeding. One batch is eliminated every year, and the rotation is also fast.

In addition to small pet chickens such as Selama, there are also ornamental chickens such as long-tailed Polish chickens, which are also very beautiful. Chu Yao couldn't resist buying breeding eggs, and bought ten of each breeding egg.As long as one male and one female can be hatched, then he is considered to have earned money.

There are not many ducks on the island, and most of the male ducks have entered the restaurant of Boss Zhuang, and the female ducks work hard to lay eggs every day.These eggs will pick out a big one to continue hatching, and the others will become salted eggs, and the owner of the village still pulls most of them away.

Most of the money that Chu Yao can spend now comes from Boss Zhuang, and a small part is from the dividends of quail and bamboo art.

There are quite a lot of orders coming from that bamboo art Taobao shop one after another. In addition, Anshu Kangjuan and the others are also working hard to innovate. They also set up these bamboo art houses to sell bamboo jewelry boxes, bamboo fruit plates and the like. The business is actually like this It's done.

The bamboo craftsman in the village was very grateful to Chu Yao, but he didn't know what the other party lacked to give away. The last thought was that since you are developing agriculture, do you need baskets?Do you need a dustpan?So I simply made dozens of large bamboo baskets, large dustpans, and fruit plate dustpans, and asked Uncle An to give them to Chu Yao.

Chu Yao really needed these things. When he heard that the other party didn't want money, he simply packed a basket of dried fruits and asked Uncle An to take them back for the big guys to eat.It was also scheduled to let them come over next year to help make furniture, because Long Jiu said that a group of people will come next year, and the previous two houses may not be enough to live in.Although the other buildings were cleaned every now and then, they were empty, with only beds and some simple cabinets.

Uncle An said with a smile: "Don't worry, we will definitely come. Now that some of us old guys have recruited apprentices, those orders can come quickly. These are all because you helped us, and we are too late to be grateful .”

"But the money must be collected. If you don't charge me, I can only buy it outside." Chu Yao was afraid that if they didn't charge the money, he would feel embarrassed to use such furniture.

Uncle An laughed and said: "Business belongs to business and favors belong to favors. Xiao Chu, don't worry, we won't make things difficult for you just because of favors."

They have already seen that although Chu Yao doesn't say anything, he really helps if he can.This kind of person is straightforward and afraid of being in debt, because favors will make them uncomfortable.Uncle An is such a person, so he understands Chu Yao's thoughts very well.

Peeled persimmons are hung in strings under the eaves, like little orange lanterns.The sweetness of persimmon sauce and the sweetness of hawthorn sauce are mixed together, making the air sweet and sticky.The dustpan in the yard was covered with hawthorn slices, and the night’s Xiaoshi tea became mint honey hawthorn tea, which was very popular because it was sweet and sour, refreshing and refreshing.

Village head Kang said that there may be frost in a few days, sweet potatoes can be dug, and rice will be harvested.

The villagers plant rice in patches, which can be harvested with small harvesters.However, it is not easy to grow rice on the island. At the beginning, it was terraced fields, and the harvesters couldn't get it up, so it had to be done manually.However, when the water was released, a batch of crayfish and loach were harvested, as well as small crucian carp that weighed more than a catty, which is an absolute masterpiece in stew!

After putting half of the water in, Chu Yao also found a lot of crabs.These are hairy crabs, the most common species in ravines and streams, but they grow very large, many of them weigh more than half a catty, and they are fat and mighty.

Boss Zhuang received a call about loaches and crabs, he put a stack of folding water tanks in the trunk, and drove up in the car.

In summer, those batches of crayfish and loach eels are gone before they have eaten their appetite, especially loach. The stewed soup tastes great, but it is more rare than quail, which makes many diners itch.It's just that I can't eat it because it's itchy, and it still smells like earth when I eat it from other people's homes, so I can only wait helplessly.

Now that Chu Yao said to release water to harvest the fields, Boss Zhuang almost became a child of two hundred catties with joy.

"I want everything you can't eat. I will stay here tonight, and I will go with Brother Huiguo's car early tomorrow morning. If my car can't fit, I will put it in his car." Boss Zhuang said that the hotel's water tanks are full. Washed out several, just waiting for new arrivals here.

The fertilizer for the paddy field is chicken manure, which not only fattened the rice, but also made the other residents in the paddy field fat and big.When the water is released, you can catch a lot of fish and shrimps directly from the water outlet with a dip net. After cutting the rice, you can fish it in the mud, and you can get a lot of harvest.

Now it is almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the crabs have just grown.Although not as famous as Yangcheng Lake, each of them is thick with yellow fat and tastes quite good.

It's just that the crabs are cold, and Grandma Chu doesn't allow everyone to eat more. One person only has two servings, and it's fair for one male and one female.However, loach, crayfish, and eel can be eaten open, but there are only so many people who can eat it open, and most of them are put into Boss Zhuang's collapsible water tank.

It took four or five days to fish for these things alone. Boss Zhuang came every day, stayed overnight and pulled a cart back the next day, and the restaurant's business went up to a new level.

The collected rice is dried separately according to the japonica rice and glutinous rice, and then the sweet potatoes are planed again.In the past few days, a group of people took turns to take turns without any time to rest. Even Teacher Ju, who was forced by Grandma Chu to eat jam and watch TV at home, couldn't sit still and insisted on coming to help.

After all, Long Jiu can still pick up a sweet potato by pretending to be blind. He can't be so lazy all the time, can he?Although no one else would say anything, it was rare for Mr. Ju to have an embarrassment of conscience.

Rice, sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and pumpkins filled the storage rooms of several small buildings.The pigs ate the boiled sweet potato and pumpkin with sweet potato and vine for several days, and they gained a lot of weight just by looking at it.

The harvested straw was piled aside and kept as firewood, all the corn stalks were smashed, some of them were made into bird food, and some were used as silage fodder for cattle and sheep.In fact, there is no need to worry too much about the feed. There is simply not enough pumpkins as high as a mountain, and they are all prepared for them.

When a layer of hoarfrost falls to the ground, only the cabbage and radishes that are resistant to frost are left in the field.

The cabbage that has been beaten by frost is even sweeter, because after all, the Chu family is a northerner through and through, and loves cabbage deeply in winter.Several thousand catties of cabbage were harvested here and there, and each cabbage weighed less than ten catties. The leaves were emerald green and the clappers were thick, and every bite carried a fresh and sweet taste.

The white radish is also a kind of crispy and sweet fiber. After washing the soil and peeling it, it tastes no worse than apples and pears.The so-called eating radishes in winter and ginger in summer, these white radishes have become the new favorite of the elders in the family. After eating every day, they have to cut a few pieces to drink with hawthorn tea. Bite a crisp radish and drink a sip of honey hawthorn tea, which is refreshing and relieves greasy.

But this is too much, and many Zhuang bosses can't consume so many radishes and cabbages.After all, his place is a restaurant, so he can't make stewed cabbage and radish for his guests every day.Moreover, this place is slightly to the south, and you can buy vegetables in greenhouses in the town, and only a few old people can store cabbage, but you can't buy much.

Grandma Chu was not in a hurry, she said slowly: "Marinate a few pots of sauerkraut, and slowly make stuffing for the rest. Vinegar cabbage, pork, stewed cabbage and cold cabbage heart, you ate less when you were young? Part of the radish was dried into dried radish Pickle it and eat it with porridge, and save some of it for me to eat as fruit. There are so many of us, how can we not finish eating cabbage and radish?"

But I don't want to eat cabbage and radishes for a whole winter, and I'm not a rabbit...

Chu Yao felt aggrieved, but did not dare to resist. After all, these cabbages and radishes were planted by Grandma Chu and Grandpa Chu, who took care of them meticulously.

"Besides, I can feed pigs, chickens, cows, and sheep if I can't finish eating. Those horses also have to eat. Do you think the group of things you raise can survive drinking the northwest wind?" Grandma Chu looked at the pile of cabbage Mountain and Radish Mountain are simply content.Without cabbage and radishes, how can we survive the winter?

But it didn't take long for things to turn around. Boss Zhuang called and laughed.
