Chapter 146: Planting Oyster Mushrooms
Meng Haowei asked with a dark face: "Who are those men who beat my son with Zhang Yanyan?"
How many men? Why did you bring up men again?
Zhang Yongnian also said with an ugly face: "Brother Meng, it's better to be more measured in your words. My daughter Yanyan is a girl, and her reputation is the most important. When did she beat your son with some man? Brother Meng saw it with his own eyes.
?"
Meng Haowei choked when he heard this.
If he saw it with his own eyes, would he still ask?
He has already brought his servants to the door, okay?
Zhang Yongnian did not give him a chance to continue speaking. He took a few steps back and said to the servant guarding the door: "Close the door and see the guests off."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.
The servant looking at the door looked at Meng Haowei with a smile and said to him: "Mr. Meng, it's getting late. You should go back to your house and rest as soon as possible."
After saying that, without waiting for Meng Haowei to speak, he directly closed the door and bolted it.
Meng Haowei didn't accomplish anything when he came here, and he didn't ask anything. Instead, he was so angry that he was almost speechless.
The servant next to him poked his head out from behind him and asked cautiously: "Master, shall we go?"
Meng Haowei turned around and glared at him, saying, "If you don't leave, why don't you stand here until dawn?"
The servant was so scolded by him that he shrank his neck and did not dare to answer.
Others looked at him sympathetically, and if he insisted on speaking at this time, wasn't he asking for a reprimand?
After Meng Haowei finished training his servants, the depression in his heart still couldn't come out, so he could only leave full of anger.
The other servants saw this and quickly followed.
On the afternoon of the second day, the servants found out where Gu Baiyi and others lived, and also found out Shen Jintang's identity.
"What? You said that little beauty is the county magistrate's daughter?"
Meng Xiajian immediately sat up from the bed in excitement, reached out and grabbed Meng Haowei's hand: "Dad, go help me propose marriage, I will marry her next month. No, I will marry her this month.
Come in."
When Meng Haowei heard that the girl turned out to be the county magistrate's daughter, she was also a little moved.
If you can become relatives with the county magistrate, it will be of great benefit to your family's business.
But why is the county magistrate’s daughter so easy to marry?
What's more, although his family has some money, in the end it is just a commoner's family with no fame or fame.
He patted Meng Xiajian's hand reassuringly: "Good boy, don't worry. That girl has a different identity, so we need to discuss this matter in the long run."
Moreover, since you already know the identity of the girl, there is no need to worry.
What we need to do now is to find the men who beat his son and teach them a lesson to avenge his son.
"You only found the residences of those men, but didn't find out their identities?" He looked at the servants and asked.
The servants looked at each other and said, "They seem to be just ordinary people."
Meng Haowei sneered: "Since we are ordinary people, it will be easy to handle."
"You choose a few thugs to follow me to where they live." Meng Haowei said coldly.
The servants responded immediately.
If Meng Haowei knew the identities of Gu Baiyi and others at this time, he would definitely not have the guts to trouble them.
It's a pity that there is no if.
On the other side, in Zhuangzi.
The greenhouse that Shen Jintang asked them to build to cultivate oyster mushrooms is almost completed.
All I have to do is cover the top with a transparent oil paper cloth.
Shen Jintang looked at the greenhouse that had been built in less than a day, smiled and said to Qingdai next to him: "This is the advantage of more people and greater strength."
Qingdai smiled and nodded: "Girl, you haven't said anything yet, why do you want people to build this greenhouse?"
Shen Jintang smiled mysteriously: "You will know when the time comes."
After the greenhouse is built, it needs to be left to dry for two days until the soil walls are dry and free of moisture.
Then soak the corn cobs prepared in advance in lime water.
Take out the soaked corn cobs and place them on a transparent oil paper cloth, arrange them layer by layer, and then sprinkle with bacteria.
Sprinkle a layer of corn cobs with a layer of bacteria, then cover the top with moist soil, and finally wrap it tightly with oil paper cloth.
The book Shen Jintang read at the time said that if the weather is warm, mushrooms will bloom in about fifty days.
If the weather is colder, it may take about two months.
Today's weather has become extremely dry and hot, and the workers in the village have all taken off their spring shirts and put on summer shirts.
With this kind of weather, it will take more than fifty days for mushrooms to bloom.
Because it had not rained for nearly two or three months, Shen Mu had people open the built sluices and release water into the small rivers that had dried up.
In order to prevent the crops from drying up, the people used iron to dig out the ditches at the head of the fields, allowing the water in the river to flow into the crop fields along the ditches.
Shen Jintang has also told Shen Mu about digging a well and using it to water the ground.
Although the method is good, there are so many people and fields in Yichang County, and there are only a limited number of workers who can dig wells and iron shops.
It’s too late.
It would be better to open the gate and release the water in the reservoir, first solving the urgent needs of the people whose crops are about to die from drought, and then hire well diggers to slowly dig the well.
Gu Baiyi knew that Shen Jintang was very busy, so he refrained from going to her to disturb her.
Until the afternoon, someone knocked on the courtyard door.
He was overjoyed and thought it was Shen Jintang who had arrived, so he quickly ordered De'an to open the door.
He couldn't sit still anymore and looked at the gate expectantly.
Who knows that the person outside the door is not Shen Jintang, but a middle-aged man.
De'an's original smile also dropped, he frowned and looked at the people outside the door, and said, "Who are you?"
Meng Haowei looked De'an up and down and asked: "You are not the master here, are you? Where is your master?"
Hearing this, De'an followed his example and glanced at him twice, and then said: "I am indeed not the owner of this yard. But our master is not someone who can see him if he wants to."
Meng Haowei sneered and said: "What a big deal! If you beat my son, I will see him even if he sees him, and I will see him if he doesn't see him."
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and pushed De'an away, leading several thugs into the yard.
As soon as he walked in, Meng Haowei felt something different.
This yard looks unremarkable from the outside, but it changes once you enter.
This kind of arrangement does not look like a place where ordinary people live.
He, who was originally very confident, suddenly felt a little unsure.
But even though you are here, you can’t be underestimated, right?
After so many years in Yichang County, he has long developed a thick-skinned person who does not express emotions or anger.
Therefore, I just went in.
While still comforting myself in my heart, the biggest official in Yichang County is the county magistrate. No matter how extraordinary the owner of this courtyard is, how high can he be?
It’s not just him who feels unsure, but also the thugs.
Everyone is not an inexperienced person, and they can all see that this courtyard is extraordinary.
Not far after entering the courtyard, I saw a man wearing a moon-white brocade robe with silver threads and dark patterns.
Wearing a jade crown on his head and long boots on his feet. His face is delicate and handsome, and his peach blossom eyes are like a deep dark world.
