It's not that there are no people in the village to open up wasteland. There are those who can endure hardship. After a few years of hard work, they have fertilized the land, and it is good to be able to harvest more.
But the past few years of raising the land have been difficult. Not only is it hard work, but the output of the land is still low.
Usually those families with a large family are really not enough to eat, so they go to open up wasteland and exchange hard work for food, as long as they can maintain food and clothing.
But Qin Shen didn't plan to open up wasteland by himself. Firstly, he was not short of money, and secondly, he had other livelihoods. The purpose of opening up wasteland was to better take root in this place.
He doesn't expect the output in the field to bring him much income, he just wants to have a farmer's foundation.
Moreover, people like Qin Shen, who have experienced the end times, have an almost instinctive pursuit of land and food. Money is something outside of the body, but without food, it is absolutely impossible to survive!
Qin Shen calculates according to his own appetite, he can eat more than others, and he eats about three catties of grain a day, so he would eat about a thousand catties a year.
The main crops in the village are rice and wheat, both of which are harvested once a year. However, due to limited farming techniques, the yield per mu here is not high. The yield of rice per mu is only more than 100 kilograms, while that of wheat is barely about [-] kilograms.
Qin Shen realized that he also likes to eat rice and noodles, but paddy fields are difficult to serve, the price is more expensive, and it is not convenient to open up wasteland, so he only wants to buy dry land, and if he wants to eat rice, he can only buy it outside.
He thought that if he opened up five acres of land, the grain he could produce would barely be enough for him to eat, and that didn't count the taxes he had to pay.
But he still buys grain to eat. Even if he wants to farm the land himself, he can buy grain to eat in the future. He has space, so he is not afraid that he will not be able to store grain.
If there is less, let’s have less, first open five acres of land, it doesn’t sound like showing off your wealth, if you have the opportunity to buy other people’s land in the future, everything can be done slowly.
The news that Qin Shen wanted to open up wasteland in the village quickly spread throughout the village. Opening up wasteland is not an easy task. If it weren't for the people who really can't get rid of the pot, no one would be so tired to open up wasteland.
The big guys chatted one after another. It is not easy to do business in the town. Even if it continues, sooner or later you will need land to live. No, Qin Shen will come back to open up wasteland?
In the eyes of many people, running a business and setting up a stall is not a serious job after all, and it also depends on the weather-didn't Qin Shen have to stay at home during the heavy rain before, and couldn't make money?
Apart from gossip about whether Qin Shen made any money and how much money he earned, everyone was most concerned about whether Qin Shen should ask someone to help open up wasteland and farm the land.
It's still too early for the real busy farming season. Everyone goes to the fields every day to weed and kill insects. The free time means that some parents are short-sighted.
Some are more capable, some are more clever, and they can go to the town to find work, but most of them are tired and don't make much money, and they don't last long.
So if they can find work in the village, most people are not willing to go to the town to find work.
If Qin Shen wants to open up wasteland, he still has stalls in the town to take care of, so he must hire people to open up wasteland, so that they can help and make a living for a few days.
Qin Shen really wanted to ask someone to open up wasteland. He asked the village head in advance to help coordinate who could come to his house to help open up wasteland.
Of course, the village head is willing to help find someone to open up wasteland. Let me tell you something earlier, most of the people in this village are relatives, and being able to give some benefits to the villagers is what the village head wants to see most.
During these days of helping Qin Shen open up wasteland, among other things, at least one meal a day can be eaten. Have you saved food for your family soon?
Even if only five mu of land is opened, the village chief took a puff of dry tobacco and asked, "Shouldn't open more? Five mu of land can be opened by a dozen or so men in a month. "
Qin Shen shied away with a smile: "I don't have that much money, so let's open some first, as long as it's enough to eat."
The village chief nodded, then shook his head again: "It's not enough for your young man to eat. The five acres of land can't grow any food in the first few years, and you have to pay taxes in the future!"
Qin Shen smiled wryly: "You can only take your time, how can you become a fat man with one bite."
Although everyone in the village knew that Qin Shen set up a stall in the town, no one thought how much money he could earn. After all, the meat was so expensive, and the meatballs Qin Shen sold were not that expensive. There is not much money left, at most it is about ten or twenty Wen a day.
None of them thought that Qin Shen's cost could be kept so low, and he could cook delicious dishes with fish.
Qin Shen bought cattle before, and now he wants to open up wasteland. In the hearts of the villagers, Qin Shen probably has spent all his money, and it is understandable that he can't open up too much wasteland now.
Qin Shen didn't want to be too high-profile, so he only reclaimed five acres of land this time.
We invited people to open up wasteland, set a salary of fifteen yuan a day and a lunch, and the work of opening up wasteland began.
Most of the people in the village are honest, and the village head specially invited those capable people to measure the five acres of wasteland first, and then a group of people threw off their arms and started working.
The wasteland is not easy to open, and the weeds on it can be as tall as a human being. It will take a long time to clear all the weeds.
Fortunately, everyone can do it, and there are many people. After making arrangements, Qin Shen went to the town to set up a stall. When he returned to the village in the afternoon, he found that his land had been cleared of a large area of weeds, and it looked tidy. few.
The lunch at noon was cooked by an old woman Qin Shen found in the village who thought she was doing a good job of tea and rice. Every meal was enough to fill me up, and I could also stir-fry vegetables with lard for everyone to eat. There was also meat every now and then.
This meal is considered the best treatment for many people, so everyone works very hard, come early in the morning, and leave only after the sun goes down.
Qin Shen was not stingy either. There was dry food in the kitchen in the morning and afternoon, and he could eat two bites whenever he was resting.
He is honest, and the people who come to work are even more honest. Everyone works together to clean up the land that needs to be reclaimed.
In addition, Qin Shen had cattle at home, so Qin Shen didn't need a bullock cart to go to town these days, the cattle could help plow the land, and the large stones on the wasteland were plowed over and over again, and all of them were turned into fine soil.
Every day when Qin Shen came back, he could see a different wasteland. The wasteland that was full of weeds was quickly turned into a neat land where food can be grown.
In less than a month, Qin Shen's five mu of land was flattened, and the land looked yellow and barren without any nutrition due to lack of fertility.
Qin Shen was not in a hurry, and took the opportunity to ask everyone to work for a few more days to plant soybeans on the five acres of land.
The matter of planting all soybeans has puzzled many people in the village. Soybeans are of course good. They can fill the stomach and have high yields. They don’t choose the land, but eating too many soybeans tends to overwhelm them. on the price.
If the family is very poor, it's fine, just grow some soybeans to eat enough, but Qin Shen is not a person who is short of money, how come he grows so many soybeans?
Qin Shen didn't know the mutterings in the hearts of the villagers, he just cultivated the land according to the scientific method.
Freshly cleared land is the best place to grow some beans, because legumes produce nitrogen fertilizers that provide nutrients to the land.
Moreover, Qin Shen didn't plan to pick the first batch of beans, but planned to turn them all back into the ground so that they could feed the nutrient-poor land and prepare for the next planting business.
After planting all the soybeans, Qin Shen paid the big guy's salary, which was not a lot at all, and even gave some more, saying that it was a reward for finishing the work ahead of time.
But the big guys were so happy, they all said that Qin Shen was really generous, and the relationship with Qin Shen became more harmonious.
With Qin Shen's move, he easily integrated into the village, and everyone thought of him, so he would not be so xenophobic and taboo him as a foreigner.
After planting all the beans, everyone in the village went home, but Qin Shen's work was not over yet.
When he started building the house, he expected that he would plant some land in the future, so he started to store fertilizer in advance, and built a fertilizer storage pond at his home.
It's just that he doesn't save much by himself, but he doesn't care too much, because he already has other solutions.
After coming here for a while, even if Qin Shen doesn't pay much attention to how other people farm, he probably knows that the people here really depend on the sky for their food.
After they planted the grain, they weeded and weeded, weeded out insects, and applied some simple man-made fertilizers—that is, the fertilizer and water would not flow outside the field, watered when the crops were about to wither, and drained out when there was too much water.
Qin Shen had never seen any other method of fertile land.
What Qin Shen planned to do was to compost and burn dung.
Compost is a kind of organic fertilizer made by using animal and plant remains and excrement containing fertilizer components, plus soil and minerals to be mixed and piled up, fermented and decomposed under high temperature and humid conditions, and decomposed by microorganisms①.
Qin Shen had already started preparations. Every time he went to the mountains, he would dig out some leaves from the ground and pour them into the cesspool of his home. He had already covered these "fertilizers" with a thick layer of wood. Started letting them ferment.
Now it was time to use it, so Qin Shen carefully applied these fertilizers to the ground little by little to moisten every inch of the land.
Burning dung is to use some natural straw, soil and wood to burn together, and the fertilizer that is rich in phosphorus, nitrogen and other organic matter, Qin Shen has already prepared in advance.
The burned fertilizer cannot be used in the field immediately, otherwise the firepower will be too strong, which will easily burn the roots of the plants, and it will take a few days before it can be used in the field.
Qin Shen treated his five acres of land as if he were his own son, being careful, and only hoped that it could fatten him up earlier so that Qin Shen could grow some crops.
