Chapter 624 Farming

   Mu Qingli couldn't bear to beat their enthusiasm, so she nodded and agreed.

   Back to the residence, it was still dark, and many people were still doing some odd jobs in the fields, tidying up the grounds. The children were also playing in the mud while laughing and laughing.

   The cows have not done much work these days, and at this time they have already returned to the shed, chewing and eating grass.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone down, illuminating everything golden light, dragging long shadows, the birds returning late flew from the sky, chirping, the laughter of the women and the frolic of the children, there was peace. .

   This is the real idyllic land.

   Mu Qingli's lips unknowingly revealed a small smile.

   When it really settles down, we will buy more acres of industrial land. As long as you are willing to work, you will not be able to live a prosperous life.

   After all, the entire "overseas relics" are held together in a group, with a strong force value, no one dares to provoke, even the government can't control this area, isn't it a paradise?

   However, she still encourages more people to go out. After all, she has been isolated from the world for hundreds of years, and now she has come out with great difficulty, but she is still huddled in such a corner.

  Well, when the time comes, a chamber of commerce can be established, a few caravans can be formed, and where can we go?

   However, that's all in the future, she just irresponsibly mentions a few words, how to do it, the village chief Zhao and the third uncle and they are just tossing it out.

   It’s not far from Nanshan City and Minju City, so they can practice in these two places first.

  Anyway, she lacked money and nothing, and some of them had the capital to let them toss, even if they lost everything in one trip, it didn't matter. As long as you can learn from it.

   "Qingli they are back!"

   When the carriage came back, everyone cheered and gathered around.

   Mu Qingli jumped out of the carriage and greeted the crowd with a smile. After a few greetings, he asked everyone to unload all the sweet potato vines from the carriage and pile them on the ground.

  The crowd agreed, swarming up, and soon all the sweet potato vines were emptied and piled into two piles on the ground.

   Zhou Dali and others drove the carriage to resettle them, while Mu Sangu and others asked Mu Qingli to explain how to plant this sweet potato vine.

  Many people haven't seen sweet potato vines yet, so it's inevitable to look at it curiously. Hearing Mu Qingli say that things bear more fruits in the ground than all crops such as yam and taro, I am more interested.

   Seeing that there was still some time before dinner, Mu Qingli greeted everyone to line up and demonstrated in front of everyone.

   This is very simple. Dozens of women have learned it after reading it. Now, one person has cut some cuttings. In the blink of an eye, he has planted two or three acres of land. Then he finished work with a smile and went back to dinner.

   Mu Qingli couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, and sure enough, there are many people who are powerful and easy to do things!

   When Mu Qingli got up the next day, the two carts of sweet potato vines that she had pulled back yesterday had all been planted, which made her feel very embarrassed.

   Zhou Dali, Dazhuang and Heitan drove the car to the town and pulled the sweet potato vine back, but no one followed.

   Mu Qingli looked again at the rapeseed that was first sown a few days ago, and it had already sprouted and sprung green.

  It will take three or four days to grow half an inch in height, and in four or five days, it will be ready to be picked and eaten.

   The buried shallots also sprout green onion leaves, but the leeks can only be sown and just sprouted.

   As for the other seeds, they did not germinate so quickly, and I am afraid it will take two or three days to wait.

  Mu Qingli glanced at the acres of land where corn and peanuts were planted. It was very good. The birds around here should have no experience of stealing seeds, so these days have been quiet, and no birds have fallen down to dig the soil and steal them.

   I'm afraid I won't be so lucky next year.

   You must know that peanuts and corn will always fall to the ground when they are harvested. As long as one bird eats it accidentally, other birds will soon follow suit.

   tasted the sweetness, and will come to the ground in groups in the future.

   There is nothing you can do about it, you can only drive the guards tighter at the time of sowing and harvesting.

   Or simply don't grow such crops.

  Everyone did their morning work, washed their hands in the drain, and went back to breakfast.

  After breakfast, half of the people rested, and half of the people brought the half of them to continue to plant.

   At this moment, Zhou Dali and the three of them also brought sweet potato Fujiko back from Qingshan Town.

  Today happened to be the day when Minzhou merchants came to deliver rice, noodles, vegetables, meat and eggs. At noon, forty carriages, led by A Yuan and Zhao Xiaosong, headed to the pier in Qingshan Town.

   Cargo ships from Minju will be unloaded at the wharf.

   When the time comes, they will bring the things back directly. This is food for four days.

Forty thousand catties of rice noodles, baskets of countless vegetables, including old corn, sweet potatoes, yam, lotus root, etc., as well as baskets of eggs, baskets of live chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits, as well as dried fish and mushrooms , dried meat, etc.

   In addition, there were thirty live pigs and twenty sheep on a small boat.

  It is not the first time that everyone has come to transport supplies back, and there is no chaos in the orderly manner.

   The only troublesome thing is the live pigs and sheep. It is inconvenient to load the car, so only seven or eight people can drive them back.

  It is not easy to transport live livestock. After all, it is not a day’s journey from Minju to take the waterway. It is not bad to be able to transport so much. People are not very willing to transport them on weekdays. After all, they can't be left hungry, eat, and pull along the way.

And this mere thirty pigs and twenty sheep, it is impossible for more than 6,000 of them to eat for four days, eat evenly, and have to add all kinds of prey hunted in the forest. enough.

After all, the big guys are working every day, and they are still doing hard work, which requires a lot of physical strength. In the past, in their lives, eating meat was the staple food. This time they changed their eating habits. live.

   Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for every meal to be without meat, not only must, but also have enough.

   After three days of planting, all the sweet potato vines were finally planted.

  The women are very diligent and take the initiative to irrigate the ground. The sweet potato vines that drink enough water will turn green in two or three days and begin to grow fresh leaves.

   And the various rapeseeds that were scattered before have grown into a large piece of green oil, about two inches long.

   It's just that it's not yet the season, the weather is too hot, even if you water it early in the morning and night, the vegetable seedlings still don't grow very well and look very thin.

   The matter of land reclamation has come to an end for the time being. The three thousand acres will be treated first, but Mu Qingli is not in a hurry to let people open up the land further.

  , on the other hand, let everyone have some free time. First, tidy up the vegetable garden in the valley that belongs to him. If he wants to plant something, he will go to the warehouse to collect the seeds.
