Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

When they passed the sheepfold, a smell hit them, and the two went over to take a look.

The sheepfold is full of mud, and the underside of the hut is also wet. The forage that was not eaten yesterday was trampled in the mud, mixed with excrement and urine.

Dirty and smelly.

Lin He's brows were all frowned, and he hadn't been here for a few days. He didn't expect this place to be so dirty.

"It's too dirty. Sure enough, we still need to find a special person, or set a different price. If the salary is the same, most people will choose to do relatively easy things."

Li Changhui looked at the sheep pen: "It's not just because the work is too dirty. The terrain of this hut is a bit low. When it rains, the water flows backwards."

Then he pointed out a few places to Lin He: "Look, there are still many traces of water flowing here."

I looked in the direction Li Changhui was pointing at, and sure enough, just like what Li Changhui said, it rained yesterday, and all the rainwater flowed into the sheep pen.

After thinking for a while, Lin He said: "Then dig a drainage ditch around the sheep shed, add some soil under the sheep shed, and tamp it down a bit, so that this situation should not happen in the future."

The sheep shed is very large, and it is more than enough for fifty sheep in it. There is thick dry thatch piled on the ground beside it, so that the goats can lie on it to rest at night.

It's a pity that at this moment, the thatch that the goats use to sleep has all been mixed in the mud.

"Master and Madam, you are also here."

Lao Zhang and Zhang came from behind, both of them carried dung buckets and shovels on their shoulders.

"Are you here to clean up the sheepfold?"

Lao Zhang nodded: "Yes, we saw that the circle was very dirty in the morning, so we thought to clean it up first. When the goats came back in the evening, the ground would be dry."

The other one was more silent than Lao Zhang, and seemed less courageous. When Lao Zhang spoke, he nodded aside.

Lin He was a little surprised: "You fed the pig so soon?"

When they came here just now, these two people were obviously still busy in the pigsty.

Lao Zhang smiled stupidly: "Not yet, it's cooking, let's tidy up here first, and feed the pigs later, anyway, I'm idle while cooking pig food."

"That's it, then you guys are busy first."

Lin He pulled Li Changhui out of the way, and said, "By the way, Lao Zhang, when you are done working, dig a drainage ditch outside the sheep shed first. I will find someone later, and let them finish their work. Pull some soil from the field and build another layer of this sheep pen to make it higher."

Lao Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll dig the gutter when I'm done working."

Don't be afraid of working, what you are afraid of is not having work to do. This is what makes people anxious.

Someone tidied up the sheep pen, so Lin He stopped worrying about it, and went to see the fish pond that had just been dug for a few days with Li Changhui.

The fish pond that Lin He wanted was not small, with an area of ​​about one mu. Before starting construction, the area and location had already been planned.

It was only now that I discovered that the fish pond I was positioning hadn't even pulled out the weeds, but a hole about ten meters high and half a person's height had been dug in the corner next to it.

There is a lot of water in the pit. It seems that the location is not bad, at least there is no need to worry about the pond not storing water.

Moreover, it is not far from the river bank, about a hundred meters away. In winter, when there is little rain, a canal can be dug to bring water here.

However, Lin He looked around, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt, and asked, "Brother Hui, this seems to be the upper hand of the paddy field, right?"

Although she has an idea in her heart, she is not sure after all. Li Changhui, who has been on the battlefield for many years, should be able to distinguish even if the terrain looks flat.

Sure enough, Li Changhui just glanced at it without even looking closely.

"Yes, this is upstream, and so is our house. The paddy fields, cattle and sheep, etc. are all downwind."

Although it is downwind with the paddy field, it is not on the same horizontal line. The paddy field is relatively farther away, and it is closer to the vineyard.

When Li Changhui was speaking, Lin He nodded secretly, and when he finished speaking, he quickly pulled Li Changhui: "Let's go to the mountain to see first."

Standing here can't see the whole picture, and it happened to be at the foot of the mountain, so I just dragged Li Changhui up the mountain to have a look.

I didn't climb too high, I only climbed halfway up the mountain, and found a gentle place where I could see the entire vineyard and paddy fields.

After taking a closer look, Lin He became excited: "Sure enough, it's exactly what I thought!"

Li Changhui looked at her puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Lin He didn't answer in a hurry, but looked around, finally broke a branch, and gestured on the ground.

"Brother Hui, look, this is our home, and these are two mountains."

Lin He said while drawing a few circles on the ground, indicating that this is the home and the two mountains she mentioned.

"This is the location of the fish pond. It's at the foot of the mountain. The pig pen and the sheep pen are on the other side. At that time, I thought that it would be closer. When the cattle and sheep return to the pen, they can come here to drink water and save a lot of trouble."

"This is the vineyard. The vineyard was the earliest location, and the ones that were transplanted this year are next to it. This is right between the paddy field and the pond."

"The paddy field is here. The canal dug before just runs through the middle of the vineyard. It was originally planned to be repaired later and dig a little deeper. It will be much more convenient to water the vineyard in the future."

The two squatted on the ground, Lin He gestured and rowed with a branch, Li Changhui watched and listened carefully, and when Lin He stopped, he asked, "Now you have other ideas, what do you want to plant?"

"No." Lin He shook his head, and Li Changhui raised his eyebrows, obviously in disbelief.

I have started to draw pictures, so I have no other ideas?

Sure enough, Lin He went on to say: "I don't want to plant anything, I just want to remodel the canal."

Hearing what she said, Li Changhui immediately understood.

"Speaking of it, the fields this time are larger than those in Yonghe Town. If the hundreds of acres of land are all planted with crops, it will be a big project just to carry water and irrigate the fields."

"Yes." Lin He nodded: "Look below, there are many canals near other farms. What we bought here is wasteland, so naturally there is nothing."

"My idea is that the pond happens to be at a high level, so we simply divert water from the pond, first divert the water from the river to the pond, and then block the water outlet with a fence, so that we can raise fish in the pond by the way."

"The ponds where fish, ducks and geese are raised, because of the feces of fish, ducks and geese, the water is also fertile. The canals are dug from the fish ponds and connected to the vineyard paddy fields and other fields."

"In this way, it will not only be convenient to carry water and irrigate the land in the future, but the water and fertilizer for fish farming may also make the crops grow better."

The most important thing is that she can use her spiritual power to raise fish at the source, that is, the pond in the future. In this way, doesn't the water she pours have a little spiritual power?
Although the amount is definitely weak, it is better than nothing, and it is more convenient!

The more I think about it, the more I feel that this method is very good.

Li Changhui also agrees, it can save a lot of work when watering the ground.

"But in this way, there are more things to be busy."
