Chapter 124 Planting Late Rice

"It's nothing. We don't have much land. When the harvest is over, our family will plant first. When the second brother returns to the village, you can go to the village chief and talk to him. If anyone is willing, we can plant together. If not, our family will plant first.

Try it."

Jiang Yan smiled slightly and said that she was not worried about whether the late rice could be successfully planted. After all, her family could make money now, and the little grain in the field did not attract her. But if it was successful, the people in the village would at least have enough to eat.

The tax revenue of the Great China Dynasty is not low. Because they were at war a few years ago, the national treasury was apparently very poor, so the tax revenue in recent years has been on the high side. Assuming a harvest of one hundred kilograms of grain, one would have to pay thirty kilograms of tax.

, the remaining eighty kilograms are the food for the whole family throughout the year.

Moreover, this meal must also include expenses such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, clothing, shoes, illness, etc.

"Mom, we will do whatever you say. Even if we can't plant anything, it won't be a problem. We brothers are still young, so it doesn't matter if we work more hard in the fields." Lin Dong supported Jiang Yan, as long as his mother treats them

Well, let alone planting late rice, they would be happy even if their mother asked them to grow hay in the field.

Jiang Yan raised her lips and smiled, looking at the blind and filial behavior of the children, she chuckled helplessly and said: "Don't worry, I'm sure. In this case, I will start raising seedlings when I return to the village tomorrow, and I will leave the seedlings to you.

After I finish the autumn harvest, all you have to do is take care of the fields."

Seeds can be bought in the mall. Although she is not familiar with cultivating seedlings, she can buy some professional books in the mall and read them. However, talking on paper is empty talk after all. Only practice can tell the truth. As long as the planting is successful this year, there will be a lot of people in the village next year.

Followed by planting.

After the family discussion, they each went back to their rooms. There were three wing rooms upstairs. Jiang Yan and her two daughters-in-law slept in one room, and the remaining two rooms were divided among their brothers. Those who really didn't have room would share a table and sleep downstairs.

.

The next day.

Lin Dong and his two daughters-in-law stayed in the town to do business, Lin Bei and Erbi went to private schools, and the others returned to the village. Lin Nan was responsible for following up on the progress of the soap factory and supervising the work of the workers, and Lin Xi was responsible for organizing acquisitions by the villagers.

Zaojiao and the wild products from the mountains, Jiang Yan took Lin Feng and Xiaodouzi, and everyone was busy in an orderly manner.

After returning to the village, Jiang Yan went to the fields. She held a book in her hand and carefully studied the information on late rice and the steps for cultivating seedlings.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, a field of yellow rice swelled with the autumn wind, and there were many villagers bending down to work in the fields. Even though it was already autumn, the sun was still very strong, and the scorching light scorched the entire land.

Jiang Yan just stood on the ridge of the field and watched. Many people in Linjia Village had already begun to enter the autumn harvest. Compared with the scenes they saw before when there was water shortage, everyone was full of joy now. Even though harvesting rice is very hard work,

But everyone has a happy smile on their face.

Jiang Yan casually twisted a bunch of rice. The belly of the rice ears had swollen a lot, but not all of them were plump and bursting, and many were slightly shriveled. It seemed that the late supply of water had a great impact on the rice. Although

It won’t be a waste of pellets, but the quality of the pellets is still greatly compromised.

She found a shady place to sit down, and carefully read the "Hybrid Rice Encyclopedia" in her hand. The sun was very bright, and she felt that her eyes were wandering, dry and blurry after just reading for a short time.

My eyes are better.

"Regeneration rice? What is this?"

Suddenly she came across a familiar vocabulary. Jiang Yan cheered up and looked at it carefully for a while. The more she looked at it, the more interesting it became. Regeneration rice is more convenient than directly planting late rice. As long as the rice stalks are left longer when harvesting the rice, the ears of rice can be harvested.

, the retained root system is fertilized and cultivated, and another season of rice can be harvested.

Compared with having to plow the fields again to raise seedlings to plant late rice, it is indeed much more convenient to directly cultivate regenerated rice. Jiang Yan's eyes were bright, and she immediately ran to the harvested fields and studied the remaining rice stalks.

Several families harvested early, and new axillary buds have actually grown in the fields. In other words, it is not impossible to plant regenerated rice!

She was extremely excited. It was really not practical to persuade the whole village to plant late rice. They would wait until next year to plant it. Many people would go hungry this year. However, it was not difficult to persuade them to leave the rice stalks in the field longer when harvesting the rice.

Jiang Yan searched for information about regenerated rice in the mall.

When I saw the conditions required for regenerated rice, I immediately gave up the idea of ​​regenerating rice. Now the water in Linjia Village must be picked manually. Regenerated rice needs good light, abundant water storage, and the soil structure should be good and the soil layer should be good.

Only if it is deep, loose, fertile, rich in organic matter and a variety of trace elements, can it be suitable for regeneration rice. However, this unique natural environment is obviously not available in the land of Linjiacun.

Not to mention anything else, there is not even a drop of rain in the sky. It is obvious that relying on human labor to water the fields is not worth the gain. Those with less land are fine, but those with more land are afraid that people will die of exhaustion before the rice is planted.

Even if you want to plant late rice, you have to think of a way to divert water to the fields, otherwise fetching water is also a physical job.

Jiang Yan was still studying the details of late rice cultivation. The village chief, his two sons, Li Zheng, and his son Lin Nan rushed over in a hurry. Several people shouted Jiang Yan's name crazily in the fields, without knowing it.

I thought something was wrong with people.

"Here, here! Village chief, why are you here?" Jiang Yan quickly stood up from the field, her red floral gown very conspicuous.

The village chief ran to Jiang Yan excitedly: "Xiao Jiang! Is what you said true? Is what your boss said true?"

Jiang Yan understood immediately, quietly put down the book in her hand, and said loudly: "Village chief, please don't get excited. I don't know if it can be done, but I heard that two seasons of rice have been planted in other places, so I wanted to persuade the villagers to

Everyone will plant it together. If the village is not willing, our family will take the lead this year. If it succeeds, it will be the same for everyone next year."

Li was struggling to pull away from the village chief and squeezed to the front. The path on the field ridge was already narrow. The village chief couldn't help himself and stumbled and fell into the field. Fortunately, the field ridge was not high. He struggled a few times and climbed up again.

Come up.

"Xiao Jiang! I believe whatever you say. Anyway, the fields in our village are empty after the autumn harvest. Since you want to plant, the village will follow suit. If it succeeds, no one in the village will starve to death this year!"

Jiang Yan was a little surprised. When did Li Zheng trust her so much? She remembered that she had not done anything important to win trust in the village, but she was sure that she could successfully plant late rice. It would be best if the whole village could plant it together!

"I am indeed sure that this late rice can be successfully planted, but the village must use the seedlings I cultivated, because I have some special methods for cultivating seedlings."

In fact, it is cultivated with high-quality seeds from the mall. The rice seeds in the mall are high-yielding and high-yield. The seeds are plump and swollen to the point of bursting. Just compare them with the seeds of this era and you can see the obvious difference.

"That's no problem. You cultivate the seedlings, and I'll ask the village to buy them from you according to the market price. Whoever wants to plant can get as much as they want." Li Zheng said with confidence, he had confidence in Aunt Jiang!
