[Comprehensive] The days when I pretended to be a meow in the Forbidden City

Xia Anran arrived at the post a full month earlier than expected. The magistrate of Qin was quite surprised when he received the information from the post station. He had already learned that the county magistrate who was going to take over this time was a young man who was not yet a weak crown and unmarried. People, I thought I would step on it. After all, in this case, it is very likely to get married first, and then take the small family with you before going to the post.

However, the serious work attitude of the young man is very commendable.

Mr. Qin stroked his beloved beard, looked at Xia Anran who had arrived at the county government hall early and was looking at the Yongchun County government documents he gave him yesterday, nodded in satisfaction, young people should be like this, young It's okay to be a little bit tired.

In the next month, Xia Anran followed Mr. Qin to do the daily work of the county government, and rode through the villages of Yongchun County alone, and then combined with the village records and his own memory, he wrote one article after another. article plan.

The most important thing is to improve the soil quality.

The soil in southern Fujian is slightly acidic. If you want to plant it, it is best to do acid reduction treatment first.

The land of China has a huge span from north to south and from east to west. Generally speaking, the land in the north is alkaline, while the land in the south is acidic. The essential reason is that the precipitation in the south is abundant and concentrated, which washes away the calcium and magnesium plasma in the land, leaving behind iron ions that are not easy to melt into water. , so the southern land is acidic and mostly red soil.

On the contrary, in the north, there is little rain and strong wind, which easily blows away the floating soil on the surface.

Some varieties in the south are inherently acid-loving, but the problem with acidic soil is that soil acidification will aggravate soil compaction and inhibit root development, especially the land here is clay texture.

Xia Anran's grandfather likes to plant flowers. Xiaoxia once saw that there were all kinds of strange things in the soil prepared by her grandfather, such as yellow sand, stones, and small shells.At that time, Xiaopang Xia would secretly pick out the small stones in the soil and put them aside.

He compared his heart to his heart, how painful it is to fall into a small stone in the shoe, Huahua will definitely feel the pain too.

Then, when my grandfather came out with a shovel and a flower pot, he saw his grandson's chubby black face with a silly smile, squatting on the ground to pick up stones.

The clothes and trousers were covered with dirt.

Grandpa Xia paused in his steps, and quickly picked up his grandson and patted his clothes as a first aid, for fear that the old woman at home would find him playing with his grandson with dirt.

Then he saw a pile of small stones that his grandson had painstakingly picked up. Grandpa Xia, who couldn't laugh or cry, told his little grandson about the soil.

Xia Anran was wearing a sporty bunt, squatting in the ridges of the field and scooping up a handful of soil.

The roots of plants need water and also need to breathe, and even pay more attention to breathing than water.

The clay soil in the south, together with the heavy rainfall here, has less impurities in the soil, which makes the soil in Yongchun very easy to clump.

The water fell last night, and after a night, in summer, the handful of soil that Xia Anran picked up will still leak water after being squeezed.

For plants, such soil is loose and soft and easy to take root, but once it rains, the soil has high water absorption and poor drainage. Except for paddy field plants, other plants cannot tolerate long-term soaking of roots.

Moreover, the clay absorbs water and becomes heavier, pressing on the roots, which is not conducive to root expansion.

There is a saying that only when the roots are deep, can the branches and leaves flourish.

The most important thing for a plant is the root, if the root is not regular, the seedling will not be red.

It is difficult for the roots to expand and water seepage is not easy, which will also cause the roots of the plants to develop horizontally. Such plants cannot absorb nutrients from the soil, and they cannot withstand strong winds. Fujian is a climate with many typhoons. In this way, once a typhoon comes, Plants that do not take deep roots are bound to be uprooted.

Xia Anran has observed the plows used by farmers. Deep plowing is not popular here, and the plow tips are relatively short. This is also because the land in the south is soft.

The root system of plants grows horizontally, and shallow plowing will increase the consumption of nutrients on the soil surface. Without nutrients, crops will not grow well, and the consumption of land will also increase.

He put down the dirt, clapped his hands,

If you want to change, you must change.

For crops, one looks at the sky, the other looks at the ground, and the third looks at the service.

The world is bad, no matter how intensively cultivated it is useless.

He just took a rough look, and there is nothing else in the soil except soil.

No sand, no stones, no clods.

It's all clay.

Is clay bad?Of course not, clay is rich in nutrients, and when mixed with humus and sand, it becomes loam.

Loam soil is just about every gardener's favorite soil.

Humus is easy to make. Yongchun County is backed by mountains, and the level of forestry development is low. The soft soil in the forest is humus. We just need to test the acidity and alkalinity of humus.

The sand is a bit difficult...it has to be transported from the sea. Although Fujian is close to the sea, Yongchun is still some distance away from the sea. It has to cross a mansion in a horizontal direction. It is not cost-effective to travel such a long way to transport some sand back. Find alternatives.

In addition, there is the problem of acid reduction.

Plants in nature also have their own preferences. There are many plants that like alkaline soil, but for example, orchids, rhododendrons, jasmine, and gardenia all like acidity.

But this acidity is also limited.

Most plants are neutral to acidic or alkaline, with limited acid-base tolerance.

Xia Anran didn't have test paper to measure the pH here, so she could only adjust it in a conservative direction.

He took a deep breath and decided to go back and talk to Mr. Qin about it.

He has just arrived here, and he is young. Although he has the reputation of being bestowed by the emperor, he cannot convince the public after all.

This is another matter of cultivating the land, and farmers are bound to have doubts, so they can only borrow the prestige of the former county magistrate.

As far as Xia Anran observed, although Master Qin looked at him with a smile on his face, he actually had a high prestige and a deep understanding of the jurisdiction. Xia Anran has learned a lot from this senior these days.

Master Qin was not stingy at teaching him the skills of being an official, which made him relax a lot.

This is exactly a limitation caused by the selection of officials by the ancient imperial examinations. To become an official by studying, you should study first and then become an official.

But every official didn't know how to be an official at the beginning.

The sage books only tell them to be good officials and treat the people well, but the specifics of how to do it are all figured out by officials, especially local officials.As for what troubles this kind of thinking process will bring to the local people...it all depends on what kind of officials are assigned to this position.

It's just that the big regulations are in place, there are many unannounced visitors in this dynasty, and the village chief Lizheng is in the middle to mediate, so far there has been no major disturbance.

What Xia Anran didn't know was that this place was carefully selected for him by Jinshang.

County Magistrate Qin is the elder brother of Qin Zheng, the servant of the household department. He was the one with the best ratings among the many county magistrates last year. During his tenure, he opened up water conservancy projects, built commercial roads, connected Yongchun with other counties, and Xia Anran entered the county. The road that was wider at that time was built by the county magistrate Qin.

The government is sound and the people are harmonious, and the common people love him. In such a state, what can Xia Anran do?

It is not difficult to make some achievements in a place that is waiting to be built, but in a beautiful place, how to block the influence of the former county magistrate and make achievements under the harsh eyes of the people is the most important thing. hard.

Said that he is looking forward to it very much.

Just when he was very satisfied with his decision, he didn't know that the so-called splendid land he picked for Xia Anran actually looked dilapidated in Xia Anran's eyes.

In just this month, Xia Anran wrote out more than a dozen problems to be solved.

He suppressed two-thirds of them, selected the most urgent ones, wrote the plan overnight, and showed it to County Magistrate Qin the next day.

County magistrate Qin read it carefully, his brows became more and more tightly wrinkled, after thinking for a long time, he took his pen and ink, and called Xia Anran to come to him. The two analyzed and discussed each item one by one. I found a few years old farmers in Yongchun County and asked a very crucial question.

How is the fertilizer in Yongchun County made?

Many old farmers looked at each other, a little puzzled.

But I still answered respectfully. The fertilizer in Yongchun County is mainly animal manure and human manure.

The old farmer was also afraid that the county magistrate would think it was dirty, so he explained in detail that the manure was buried in the ground and had no direct contact with the crops, and that the manure had been fermented, so it had no peculiar smell.

Yongchun County has many hills and few plains. This kind of terrain is more suitable for grazing livestock. Many old farmers raise chickens and ducks, and some of them raise some pigs and sheep. The manure produced by this livestock will be piled up and decomposed in the village as a unit.

County magistrate Qin nodded to Xia Anran, indicating that he would be the one to ask the next question. Xia Anran sat under the county magistrate Qin, nodded when he saw this, and he turned to the old farmer who turned to face him respectfully and asked, "Old man, have you ever tried using plant ashes?" For fat?"

The old farmer was a little confused, so he said, "Of course there are, but most of the ashes were collected and washed by the women at home, and there are not many left."

This is where the problem lies.

Plant ash is alkaline, and manure is mostly acidic.

And the land under their feet is acidic, and acidic fertilizers are added to the acidic soil, and the result can be imagined.

But this matter is not clear, only experiments can be shown to them.

There are a few small pieces of land behind the county government office, and Xia Anran has taken out cucumber seeds to urge them to grow a few days ago.The current weather is not a suitable season for seeding, and it is very easy to grow in vain.But Xia Anran had no other choice.

He divided a piece of land into four parts, and each part was inserted with a bamboo pole, with one, two, three, four written on it.

Land No. [-] is native land, and there is nothing special about it.

Land No. [-] is primary land, poured with manure.

Land No. [-] is original land, poured with plant ash.

The land No. [-] is the original land, but Xia Anran ordered people to sprinkle some white powder into the soil when hoeing, and added some small stones to the soil.

Then he planted the cucumber seedlings, which had grown four leaves, into the soil.

Li Zheng and the old farmer were a little confused, not understanding why the future county magistrate asked them to watch this.

Cucumber is a kind of crop that likes neutral to acidic soil. It is also grown locally and is a relatively convincing crop.

And the cucumber grows quickly after germination, and the results can be seen better.

In order to make the effect more obvious, Xia Anran also planted some cabbage, which can be said to grow the fastest among vegetables.

Xia Anran asked them to come and see the growth of these four cucumber plants if they had nothing to do.

Both Lizheng and the old farmer were puzzled, but after all, this was the county magistrate who was going to take over Yongchun County in the future, and it was not the busy season for farming, so they had to comply.

Within a week, the difference was already there.

The growth of No. [-] and No. [-] is slower than that of No. [-] and No. [-], which is not bad. This is the growth speed they usually see, but compared with No. [-] and No. [-], they are a bit weaker.

The cucumbers in the No. [-] field have begun to climb the vines, and the leaves of the cabbage have also taken shape, ready for thinning.

The cucumbers in the fourth field climbed a head higher than those in the third field, and the leaves were also extremely wide. The growth of the cabbage was not much different from that in the third field.

Some old farmers have already asked Xia Anran what the white powder was.

An old farmer puffed on his pipe and said, "Isn't that white powder a fertilizer made by the county magistrate?"

His head was patted by his clansman. The county magistrate is a scholar, how could he do such dirty things, but a young man also went to watch the fun. The backyard of the county government has not been sealed these days. They were all put in, and he was one of the people who joined in the fun, and he even touched the soil of No. [-] plot at close range.

As long as there is no farmer who is not interested in good soil, this young man will do some wall-pasting work to subsidize his family after farming. He had some guesses after seeing the white powder in the soil.

but he dare not say it

Because this is ridiculous, how could the county magistrate mix lime powder into the soil.

The author has something to say: The author originally wanted to give it a try, but was exposed by the comment area... Bamboo shoot jelly is actually soil bamboo shoot jelly, not made of bamboo shoots, but a mollusc that lives in the sand. I didn’t I have eaten it but it should taste similar to sea sausage?From the description it should be delicious.

In fact, there are a few people who cooperated with me, but there are a few people who are very honest and exposed (covering their faces) Hey, the readers of this year are really hard to deceive... I originally wanted to reveal this in the article, I knew I would I won't write it in the words... Languo, wronged.

Have you said it long ago, please give the author a sense of accomplishment! !

I have to write down this matter in a small notebook secretly, ╯^╰

The soil is acidic and alkaline.

Most plants are neutral to acidic or alkaline, but a small number of plants are more partial to eclipse.

If you raise a plant and die no matter what, it has something to do with the soil.

Chemical fertilizers are not counted. If you use organic fertilizers... Organic fertilizers have a pH level. For example, if you grow rhododendron and jasmine (acid-loving) and use plant ash as fertilizer or mixing material, I can only light candles for you.

But there is an exception to this situation, that is, open-air soil cultivation, or pot cultivation, but in the open air, why pinch it, because when the rain falls, there is also a pH value, which is generally weakly acidic, so even if you turn the soil into a weak base Sex, but it can barely resist the alkalinity in the soil when it is often rained.The feeling is probably that although the place where I live is a bit cheating, the food is not bad, that's how I feel.

But vegetables can basically resist.To be honest, if it is not for the environmental pollution in the area where your home is located, I recommend that you water the flowers with rainwater, or throw the flowers out in the rain on rainy days, especially for babies who do not have the habit of losing weight.

Now the environmental pollution is much less, and the rainwater contains a lot of trace elements, which can barely give your flowers more nutrition. The premise is that the flower pots you use have holes at the bottom, not ceramic pots, or hardened soil.Water resistance must be good.

Finally, the author is actually a farming girl. Amway finished stationery. Do you want to listen to the TB shop where the author Jun Anli sells flowers? The autumn broadcast is about to start! (rubbing hands excitedly)

ps, in fact, no matter what kind of plants you grow, unless they are too big to carry, or you want to deliberately control the size of the plants, you will have to change the soil and pots in at most 2 years.

It is good to replace the soil with any fertilizer. For plants, the fine and dense soil is not good soil (such as pure peat soil). The good soil is that when you water, the water will leak out in about 10 seconds. the kind that got it.

This kind of soil...in case one month is too poor, it tastes better than pure peat soil ⊙v⊙
