The Rich World: A Farmer’s Daughter

Chapter 358: terraced fields

In the impression of rural people, only the land in the concave basin can be developed into fields.

However, this time, people were once again shocked that...

"Have you heard? Lan girl is going to turn that low hillside into a field?"

Among the hills that Lin Yuelan bought, one hill was obviously much shorter than the others. Therefore, Lin Yuelan planned to transform it into terraced fields.

"I heard that too." Someone immediately echoed, "However, how does this hillside develop into fields? Who doesn't know that water and sunlight are the most important things to grow food."

"Yeah. There is sunshine on that hillside, but this water..., this water is known to everyone, and it can only flow from a high place to a low place. You said, this field is on the hillside, how does this water flow up? No Water, even if the barren slopes are turned into beautiful fields, it is useless."

"It's just Lan girl, don't you understand? If she didn't have a way to get water from the fields on the hillside, how could she open up fields in the mountains on a whim?"

"Maybe it is. Since that girl's transformation, what she has done is beyond our comprehension."

...

The villagers talked a lot about Lin Yuelan's development of land on the hillside.

In the Lin Family Garden, everyone was also surprised and inconceivable about Lin Yuelan's bizarre thoughts about opening up hills into fields on sloping fields.

Guo Bing asked suspiciously, "Farming on the slopes? Miss Lin, what can I do with this water source? It's fine if it rains every day, but when it's sunny, there's no way for the water to flow from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain?"

Guo Bing's question is also the question of everyone present.

Therefore, everyone looked at Lin Yuelan in unison, wanting to get the solution from her mouth.

Lin Yuelan came out with a blueprint and spread it out on the table.

Everyone looked at the drawings on the table with great curiosity, but at first glance, a consistent question mark flashed across their foreheads.

Because they don't seem to understand.

Lin Deshan asked suspiciously, "Girl, what is this?"

Lin Yuelan said, "This is a blueprint for the development of sloping land into terraced fields!"

After hearing what Lin Yuelan said, everyone took another look and seemed to be able to understand a little bit.

These wavy lines, the connected figures, are not like a ladder.

No wonder Lin Yuelan would say it was a terraced field.

The more people looked at it, the brighter their eyes became.

"Hey, is this still possible? Why can't anyone think of it?" Guo Bing said with regret and surprise. "If someone could think of the development of this terraced field before, maybe this world can solve the problem of a land for food production."

In this era, there are fewer people and more land, so there is no land to grow food at all, as long as you are diligent.

However, the land in which to live and grow food also depends on what kind of land it is.

Flat land is generally a place for people to build houses and live. Only those depressions and basins can be developed into fields.

The rest of the land, either on the mountains or on the slopes, cannot grow food at all.

Unless it is in the sloping land, it is opened into dry land and some vegetables are grown.

Now that they saw Lin Yuelan's blueprint, they realized that this sloping land could also be developed into fields to grow food.

Terraced fields may give the people of the world a way to survive!

"Yue'er, where does the water for this terrace come from?" Jiang Zhennan asked with a frown.

Without Lin Yuelan's explanation of the drawings, they would have no idea about some of the more scientific designs.

Lin Yuelan pointed to the top of the **** and explained, "The most important thing about terraced fields is where the water comes from.

In fact, terraced fields, the most important source of water, are the dense forests on these hillsides.

Because the mountains are high, the flow between the air is blocked, and it rains frequently, these vegetations can store water very well, and the water storage capacity is large, so that the water is discharged and continuously circulated.

Therefore, for such sloping terraces, we only need to add some drainage systems. For example, dig ditches, or use diabolo to drain the water down to the fields! "

Everyone listened with gusto.

"However, the forest on the top of the mountain is not lush. So, what we need to do is to keep these rare forest trees on the top of the mountain, and at the same time, we can build a reservoir here like a farmland. , As long as the reservoir is large enough, there are thick trees around to store water, plus the water storage in rainy days, there is no problem in irrigating the terraced fields on the entire hillside.

As for how to water, it is to use diabolo to make water pipes, and to divert water from the reservoir down to each terraced field. "

"If the water in the reservoir at the top of the **** is not enough for watering according to the measurement, you can also build a reservoir in the middle of the slope. Of course, the trees in this area must be retained, and the function is also in addition to the water storage function. , is to prevent soil erosion!"

According to the modern terrace design, it is actually watered with a pump.

But to use a pump, you must use electricity, but there is no electricity here.

No matter how capable she is, she won't be able to invent "electricity" for a while.

Moreover, she can invent, but, she thought, this history has to go on her own footsteps, otherwise, this history will be seriously affected as soon as the electricity comes out.

People who have studied history in modern times, who do not know that because of the emergence of "electricity", the world has undergone major reforms immediately.

She just wants to be an ordinary person and doesn't want to participate in these major historical changes.

So, electricity, unless absolutely necessary, she would never let it appear.

Therefore, what she uses is the most primitive method in modern times - water storage and irrigation!

Listening to Lin Yuelan's explanation, everyone suddenly realized.

What the hell!

Even so!

What a difficult problem this was in the past, it was solved easily by Lin Yuelan.

This is because no one thought of using this hillside for farming before. However, due to various reasons, it has never been successful. In addition to the difficulty of development, the water source for irrigating the fields has become a major problem.

But now, these two difficulties have been solved by Lin Yuelan.

"Okay, girl, I didn't expect that this field could be developed like this!" Lin Deshan was very excited, with a feeling of glory and Yan.

Once Lin Yuelan's terraced field design is successful, it can solve the problem of insufficient land for many farmers.

It is not that there is no land to open a field, but also a hillside.

If one person cannot succeed, then the people in the village will come together. I believe that the court and the government will definitely intervene in this matter of benefiting the country and the people.

So don't worry, the terraced fields will not be successful.

Jiang Zhennan listened to Lin Yuelan's explanation, his excitement was not suppressed by Lin Deshan, he held Lin Yuelan's hand tightly, and said with a very moving expression, "Yue'er, this... This is really thank you!"

Lin Yuelan rolled her eyes indecently and said, "Okay, fool. I'm doing this for myself, you don't need to thank me!"

When the others heard it, they immediately burst into laughter.

"Ha ha……"

When Lin Yuelan reacted, her face couldn't help blushing, and she was obviously a little embarrassed.

Jiang Zhennan's ears turned slightly red under the ridicule of everyone.

A young couple was teased and made fun of by everyone.

"Let me tell you, this is a terraced field designed by Miss Lin for her own hillside. What are you doing, Miss Xie Lin, who is so excited?" Guo Bing was most happy to see Jiang Zhennan's jokes.

Jiang Zhennan glared at Guo Binghu, and his sharp eyes shot at Guo Bing fiercely.

"Oh, Brother Bing, what you said is wrong." Xiao Liuzi became more and more courageous, so much so that he dared to make a joke about Jiang Zhennan, "Although Miss Lin set up the terraced fields for herself, but the people present were People, who don't know, it's very likely that this terraced field will spread across the entire Longyan Kingdom. You say, who gets the credit for this?"

"Of course it's Miss Lin!" The third son immediately agreed.

"That's right." Guo Bing immediately nodded in agreement, "Based on the relationship between you and Miss Lin, part of her credit is not to be attributed to you. The sage's reward must be greatly reduced. Your boss. So, boss, you should thank Miss Lin! Little Liuzi, you are so smart!"

Xiao Liuzi touched the back of his head, and made two embarrassed "hehe".

Seeing Xiaoliuzi's simple, honest and cute appearance, everyone burst into laughter again.

"Haha..." Xiao Liuzi was even more embarrassed.

After everyone joked for a while, they returned to business.

Guo Bing asked, "Miss Lin, this terrace project is still a bit big."

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, "That's right. But once it succeeds, unless it encounters an earth dragon and turns over, or encounters a heavy rain that forms a mudslide and destroys the terraced fields, it will be beneficial for a hundred years."

Everyone thought about it, it was indeed the case.

"Miss Lin, you seem to have only bought four hilltops. This one is used for terraced fields, the other is for special fruits, and the other is for grapes. What kind of arrangements do you have for the rest of the hills?" Guo Bing asked.

Lin Yuelan said, "No, just plant some ordinary fruits."

"But girl, didn't you say you want to plant those sweet potatoes and potatoes?" Lin Deshan asked with a frown.

Lin Yuelan said, "These things can be mixed and planted. That is to say, after the saplings are planted, these things can be mixed next to them. In this way, the space used will be larger."

Others are not very clear.

Lin Yuelan said, "You will know this when the time comes."
