Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 112 Listening to Songs and Farming
Long before, it had been planned to reclaim some fields, and the plan of 4 mu of rice was calculated based on 50 people.

Cultivate new land and plan for a rainy day, which must be done well in advance.

Now the total population has reached 52, and some new people may be added in the future.

Besides, to plant some other things now, land is also needed.

What's more, the hybrid rice was planted before. Although the yield is high, it cannot be kept.

Even if I bought a lot of high-yield hybrid rice before, and in a low-temperature and dry environment, through scientific storage methods, it can be stored for more than three years.

But I can't be completely at ease. Now that the end of the world is breaking out, it is no longer possible to buy hybrid rice. Everything has to be prepared, so now I have to start planting some conventional rice that I can save myself.

I also discussed with my grandfather and others before, to reclaim terraced fields at the foot of the mountain.

Between the ridges, sections of terraced fields are reclaimed.

It's November.

It is the season of early rice planting.

In the base, in the paddy field.

Li Yu also got out of the field, bent down, and planted rice seedlings.

Recently, Li Yu has been in a good mood and at peace.

When transplanting rice seedlings, he wore earphones and listened to the songs he had downloaded a long time ago.

Under the scorching sun, Li Yu was in the paddy field, listening to Beyond's Mandarin version of "Farmer":
Don't look at people building tall buildings overnight

Don't ask who the heaven prefers more
With my heart and hands
In exchange for a safe and comfortable life
a piece of sky on everyone's head
a piece of land in everyone's heart
Is it a good harvest or a bad year?
ask feeling don't look at money
Life may be bitter, but in the face of life, everyone is like a soldier.

Keep working hard for your goals and dreams, maybe you work hard, but there is no result.

Maybe not hard enough, but only you know.

Don't fight for it, when you don't know what to do.

Do it first, sometimes as you do it, you can see the way you want to go.

someone said:
In this limited life, we must see endless scenery.

So... have to be on the road all the time.

In the last days, no one knows what will happen the next day, or what accidents will happen.

However, the field in my heart must be planted by myself.

Just like the paddy field where Li Yu is standing at the moment.

Seriously planting rice seedlings, irrigating water, spraying medicine, using these two hands.

Waiting quietly. The season of autumn harvest.

Plant the field in your heart well, and you are worthy of yourself.

The 4 acres of paddy fields were planted very quickly, and there were so many people, it took less than a day to plant them all.

As the sun sets, the sunset glow in the sky turns red, and the clouds seem to be on fire, so gorgeous and colorful, with distinct layers of burning clouds, and the color gradually fades from west to east.

The beautiful scenery in the sky made Li Yu raise his head to watch.The setting sun stretched Li Yu's figure very long. Li Yu slowly lowered his head and looked at the flat paddy field in front of him, his eyes were full of pleasing greenery.

The inner joy is indescribable.

He enjoys this peaceful and beautiful life very much.

After the paddy fields in the plain are full, we must take advantage of the season to plant peanuts, corn, and sweet potatoes in a hurry.

April is a good season for planting. In April, you can plant Chinese cabbage, white radish, carrot, sword bean, potato, spinach, cauliflower, broccoli, jicama, cucumber, melon, mid-late ripening gourd, yam, alpine eggplant, alpine Peppers, spring cress, jicama, leeks, green onions, bamboo leaf vegetables, chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, purple cabbage, etc.

However, the reclamation of the terraced fields has not been completed yet, so in addition to still going out to search for supplies and guarding the base, the remaining people in the base are divided into two waves. Some are responsible for planting vegetables, etc., and the other part is cultivating fields on the mountain.

Li Yu was not on duty today, and Li Yu passed by early in the morning wearing his old clothes.

There are many hills in the south, which is different from the plains in the north, so large-scale planting operations are often not possible.

A lot of land in the south is patchy and scattered, so it is difficult to use large machines to plant like in the north.

But Li Yu also has a way. Two of the workers also know how to use an excavator, so when reclaiming the land, there is no need to use manpower to reclaim it with a hoe.

The land in the mountains and forests is difficult to walk, but small excavators are convenient and flexible. With the assistance of two excavators, the speed of reclamation has increased several times.

After the excavator dug down the mountain soil and formed a flat land, Uncle Lai and Grandpa directly drove the tractor behind to crush the hard soil and clean up the stones in the soil by the way.

With the help of machinery, in less than an hour, 1 mu of land was reclaimed on the mountain on the left.Originally, it might be faster to use a tractor to cultivate in the flat land, but in this mountain, even with the help of an excavator, the speed is still much slower.

But it is much faster than manpower.

3 mu of land is the number finally decided by Li Yu after careful consideration. Although it is not large, it is still enough for now.Although the terraced fields reclaimed in the mountains can also grow plants, the reclaimed area is too large, which is also a kind of damage to the water and soil balance of the mountain forest.

In addition, after the end of the world, heavy rains will erupt from time to time, so the area for reclamation should not be too large, so as not to cause mudslides.

3 mu is not very big, compared to the two mountains, it is less than one percent of the area.

If we want to expand the base in the future, to the outside of the wall, if we expand to the forest side, the wall should also be extended to the outside.At that time, we can simply reclaim the plains behind, so there is no need to reclaim too much area on the terraced fields for the time being.

After the terraced fields were reclaimed, a waterway was brought in from the mountain pond in the afternoon to irrigate the land here.

The mountain pond is not very deep, showing a U-shape, the deeper it gets to the center, the deeper it gets, but the closer it gets to the shore, the shallower it gets.

In this mountain pond, the deepest part is almost 20 meters.

Of the three mu of land, one mu is going to be used to grow corn, one mu is going to be used to grow sweet potatoes, and the last mu is going to be used to grow potatoes.

Southerners mainly eat rice, but occasionally they also eat other miscellaneous grains, and occasionally some noodles.

Barley and wheat are also grown in some places. Many liquors are actually made from barley, and many Fen-flavored liquors are made from barley.

Maotai-flavored liquor is mostly made of sorghum, glutinous rice and sorghum.

In Li Yu's base, some wheat is also planted, but they are all winter wheat planted before, and not many are planted, just a small piece.

Dig the soil, sow the seeds, water, and water thoroughly.

In the afternoon, Li Yu and his grandfather planted the three acres of land.

Time always passes quickly. At the foot of this mountain, although it is not high, it is higher than the plain below.

Spring is not hot, and in the air, under the blowing of the wind, the fragrance of fruit trees is blown over.

The wind blew Li Yu's hair, he raised his head, his waist was a little sore, but for some reason, looking at the bright sun, he always felt so beautiful.

Recently, he has been in a good mood.

This period of time was also the time when he felt the most stable and comfortable since his rebirth.

Although he has to get up every day to farm and reclaim wasteland, occasionally it is his turn to go outside to search for supplies and so on.

But for some reason, his mood has become more and more peaceful recently.
