Xu Qingzhi didn’t look at her phone, and she didn’t know that the group had exploded because of rice.
She reluctantly said goodbye to Xia Weiwei at the airport and returned home.
On this day, Xu Fuqiang accompanied Wang Yanmei to take the final tractor test and got the certificate. The second-hand tractor that the family had purchased long ago finally came in use.
Xu Qingzhi laid out the manuscript of the back mountain plan and discussed it with his parents one by one.
These four hundred acres of mountainous land are still mainly planted with fruit trees. The Camellia oleifera seed trees that were already on the mountain were planted in a designated area, and some new Camellia seed saplings were purchased for planting.
Xu Qingzhi thought, this tea seed oil itself has high nutritional value. It costs 70 to 81 kilograms when sold outside. It is not as good as the one grown in the spiritual energy array.
The tea seeds grown by oneself are safe to eat when oiled.
Xu Fuqiang and Wang Yanmei nodded, indicating that there was no problem.
Xu Fuqiang thought of the tea seeds, slapped his thigh, and said angrily: "Originally, there was a piece of tea seeds in other mountains that belonged to our family. Every year your mother and I went to pick them, but they were all picked in advance. Those unscrupulous people
They picked the tea seeds before they were ripe, sneaking there under the light at three or four in the morning. In fact, the oil from the few tea seeds was not very much. Your mother and I later stopped caring about them.
You have to buy oil to eat."
When Wang Yanmei heard this, she thought of another question: "I heard that the pumpkin grower in Bajia Village had his pumpkins stolen once, and then several more were stolen in succession. People in the village said that the pumpkins he planted were varietal pumpkins.
They are very expensive outside. He was so angry that he started to install surveillance cameras. Should we also install surveillance cameras in our house?"
Xu Fuqiang frowned and thought deeply, and muttered: "It's really strange, our food has never been robbed once."
In fact, most people in the village are still very simple and live their lives down-to-earth.
But there are also sneaky people, but Xu Qingzhi is now building a foundation, and she can feel any movement within a five-mile radius.
Several times, someone sneaked into the vegetable field in the middle of the night and wanted to do something. She used crows to scare people with red eyes. The crows and a group of crows scared the thieves into thinking they were ghosts.
It's just that her parents didn't know about these things, so she didn't need to say anything. She said, "Okay, let's install surveillance cameras later. If something happens, there will be evidence."
You can't just let Crow Crow run errands for such trivial matters. It's still necessary to install surveillance.
But the most important thing now is to plan the planting area.
Xu Qingzhi continued to express his thoughts, "Mom and Dad, I also want to grow some Chinese herbal medicine."
"But no one here specializes in growing Chinese herbal medicine. We have people who harvest it, that is, the two or three Chinese herbal medicines found on the mountain." Wang Yanmei said.
Xu Qingzhi shook his head, "This thing has a price and a market, so don't worry about lack of sales. Mom, our family usually makes soup and eats it and also adds some Chinese medicine to stew it. In the future, if you grow it at home, you don't have to go to the drugstore to get it."
”
I have to say that Xu Qingzhi still understands her mother very well.
This is just a chicken soup, and the medicinal materials cost one hundred yuan.
Wang Yanmei waved her hand and nodded, "Okay, you come to make the decision, Mom doesn't understand."
Xu Qingzhi smiled and continued to talk about his thoughts: "And there is no need to open up additional land for planting. Some Chinese herbal medicines can be planted under the planned fruit trees. On the sunny side, Yang-loving medicinal materials such as Rehmannia glutinosa, Scutellaria baicalensis, Astragalus membranaceus, chrysanthemums, and cow's milk can be planted.
Knee, Isatis root, Cassia, Atractylodes, Aconite, Bupleurum, etc. Plants on the shade side like coptis, aroid, yam, anemarrhena, etc. There are also cherries grown at home, peach trees, persimmon trees, and apricots planned to be planted.
The trees can be planted with Pinellia ternata, Gastrodia elata, Ganoderma lucidum, Panax notoginseng, Aroid star, Konjac, Polygonatum odorifera, etc. Under the pear tree, you can plant salvia, lily, Asparagus and other medicinal materials."
After hearing what Xu Qingzhi said, Xu Fuqiang and Wang Yanmei's eyes widened.
"Qingzhi, you know so much. It's different after going to college. Unlike dad, who didn't know anything. When he planted bayberry, he just bought a fruit tree and left it alone." Xu
Fu Qiang gave his daughter a thumbs up.
Xu Qingzhi raised his phone and saw the search engine interface, "I don't understand either. I searched it online."
There are also some information points about planting, but she did not explain them to her parents one by one.
For example, normally you need to change crops every year, and the same goes for vegetables. Continuous cropping on the same land is prone to disease or yield reduction, so you need to pay attention to water and fertilizer management.
But with the spiritual energy array and spiritual spring water here, there is no need to worry about these issues, and there is no need for her to talk about them.
Wang Yanmei pointed to the flat land in the middle of the manuscript map and asked, "Qingzhi, what do you plan to plant on these eighty acres of land? This flat land is easier to take care of than the mountains."
"What I want to do is plant some strawberries in the second half of the year. When the weather gets cooler in September, I can plant them. This area is planted with raspberries, this area is planted with blueberries, and then these fields are planned to be planted with vegetables, and they can be planted in turns. Next year, these fields will be planted.
Plant watermelons, grapes and melons. Mom, don’t you love melons? You said the melons you bought this year don’t taste good and are bland. Let’s grow some ourselves next year.”
The more Xu Fuqiang listened, the more excited he became: "Cantaloupe! Qingzhi, plant some more cantaloupe. Your mother loves to eat melons, and your father and I love to eat cantaloupes."
Xu Qingzhi smiled, nodded, and responded: "Okay, parents, I will grow all your favorite food by then."
"There are also sweet potatoes, purple potatoes, potatoes, peanuts, etc., which are all grown in this land. The three vegetable plots at home are too scattered. Later, we grow everything in the vegetable plot in front of our house, just for our own consumption, which saves money.
We have to travel further to pick vegetables. The other two plots of land are dedicated to cultivating seedlings and preserving seeds."
"We will raise some fish to eat in the big pond in the back mountain, so we don't have to go to the market to buy fish."
In addition to planting, there are also dedicated people to handle digging ditches, installing water pipes, and installing monitoring wires. As long as you have money, there is nothing that cannot be solved.
A special room should be built on the mountain to store tools and have a place to stay when you need to rest.
Xu Fuqiang was so satisfied after hearing this that he immediately started calling people.
Xu Qingzhi called and asked someone to install the surveillance system to see how to install it and arrange the wiring.
The next day, the person who installed the surveillance system came to see it early in the morning and decided on the route.
Xu Qingzhi doesn’t understand this, so he just gives money.
The news that the Xu Family Back Mountain Farm was about to start construction soon spread throughout the village.
Many people came over with hoes to help. Grandpa, who was in his seventies, came over with a hoe on his shoulders, followed by many old men.
Xu Fuqiang was stunned. He didn't expect that in addition to some laborers from the village he called over, a large number of people from Wuyangyang came.
An old man who watched Xu Fuqiang grow up said: "Fuqiang, we are idle at home and have nothing to do anyway. We finished harvesting the rice a while ago. I heard that you wanted help, so we came over. We don't charge you, it's free."
I'll help you, just give me some water to drink."
"Yeah, we have nothing to do at home anyway, and it makes our whole body feel uncomfortable if we don't go to the ground all day long."
Xu Fuqiang was really embarrassed: "Uncles and uncles, how can you be so embarrassed?"
"Come on, I've seen you running around the village in your crotchless pants. The mountain you're covering is so big, so the work can only be done quickly if there are many people, otherwise it will take years and months to complete."
This person has taken the initiative to help, and there is no reason to drive people out. If you call people back now without helping, the scene will be ugly.
This is the case in the village. There used to be a fruit tree grower, and the villagers immediately went to help him as soon as he heard about it. They didn’t need to pay him, they just paid attention to him.
If the host is considerate, he will also take care of two meals.
So Xu Fuqiang asked everyone to have a drink of water, and then went to the back mountain and started to get busy.
Wang Yanmei drove the tractor to plow the ground, and Xu Qingzhi took the initiative to take over the cooking job.
There was no one at home, so she made a secret. The little paper man diligently began to wash, select and chop the vegetables. The big paper man was so skillful in flipping the pot that Xu Qingzhi could smell the aroma of the vegetables.
As expected of the little guys she cut herself, they are all smart and sensible.
