The whole family traveled through ancient times and fled in an RV
Chapter 224 Spring Plowing
The people are based on agriculture, and the country is based on agriculture.
Late April and early May are good times for transplanting rice seedlings. Whether you are at school, working, or have fields at home, everyone will go to transplant rice seedlings.
Tianshifu, whose surname is not Tian, is an agricultural worker who teaches people how to farm and provides guidance and technology. People like to call them Tianshifu. When the farming season comes, besides the farmers, Tianshifu is also busy.
The rice seedlings were bundled up and piled on the cart, and then distributed to each household by Master Tian. Because these people were newly relocated, many of them were from the north, and most of them had never grown rice before. So what was distributed was not rice seeds, but rice seedlings cultivated by the agricultural department.
Everyone wore straw hats and rolled up their trousers, waiting by the paddy field. The water depth in the paddy field was ready according to what Master Tian had said.
Each family received rice seedlings and went to the fields to plant them according to Master Tian's instructions.
Lin Zisu began to plant rice for the first time in her life. She stepped into the paddy field barefoot, and some mud splashed on her face. She raised her sleeve to wipe it off, and then took the seedlings to learn how to plant them. After planting a row, they were all tilted and she couldn't bear to look at them.
Look at the seedlings planted by Master Tian. They are neatly arranged in a row and look full of vigor.
The seedlings are all hybrid rice. The stems of the seedlings are thick and there are many pockets. They cannot be planted too densely. You must pay attention to the depth of planting, direction, row spacing, and seedling spacing.
Lin Zisu was not the only one like this. Most people were similar. They had no experience and no feel for the first time. But they got the feel for the rice seedlings after a while. After all, most people had been dealing with farmland since childhood and had been farming for half their lives. Most of them were good at farming and could get the hang of it quickly.
In the paddy field, there was a huge crowd of people, men, women, old and young. They received the rice seedlings, learned how to plant them, and were all working hard.
This is working for yourself. Except for a small portion that has to be handed in, most of the harvest from the fields this year is yours.
The sun was shining brightly, and everyone was bending over to plant rice. The paddy fields were full of people, and the scene was very lively, with people talking and laughing, looking forward to the grand scene of the autumn harvest.
Old Man Lin really looked down on the farm work done by his granddaughter Lin Zisu. His granddaughter was smart and capable, and could study, open a shop, etc., but she was not good at farm work. Even digging loaches and catching yellow eels were better than doing farm work.
Old Man Lin took a few puffs of his cigarette, looked at his granddaughter who was standing up to rest, and shouted, "Zi Su, you and your sisters should go home and cook! You have to eat and drink enough to have strength to work!"
"Okay! I'll send it to you when it's done!" Lin Zisu was eager to do so. She got goosebumps just looking at the leeches in the paddy field.
She used water from the paddy field to wash off the mud on her hands and feet, called her sisters, and left the battlefield.
As soon as Lin Zisu got on the RV, she went to the bathroom, washed her hands and feet, and washed her face and neck. She opened the refrigerator and poured a glass of water to quench her thirst, waited for her three sisters to come up, washed their hands and feet, drank water, and then went home to cook.
This time, she and her brother Lin Xianwen were the only ones who came out to plant rice. Lin Youcai was very busy at work, and Shen Xianglan Pharmaceutical Factory was even busier, so she often stayed in the factory.
The two uncles of the Shen family were busy purchasing medicinal materials from various places and transporting them back.
If there was no one to cultivate the fields, they would hire someone to do it. Many people had moved to Xinghai City, so there was no shortage of people to cultivate the fields.
Old Man Lin and Old Lady Wang did not allow anyone to be invited, and Lin Youfu and his brothers said the same thing. The Lin family was divided into households according to the regulations of the country, not severing ties, they were all one family, so there was no need to talk about two different families.
Lin Youcai said that during the autumn harvest, his three brothers' families should take more grain. Anyway, the four people in his family could not eat much, and Heguo was not short of grain to sell.
Lin Zisu drove the RV back and passed by Dongsheng Fast Food Store. She saw some people stopping to look, but the gates were closed and there was a sign on the door: The boss went to plant rice and will open in 3 days.
The weather was getting hotter, the construction of Xinghai City was getting better, and the business of Dongsheng Fast Food Store was high. We couldn't close for too long, and after three days, we could only open the store and deliver three meals and water to them.
During the busy farming season, the store hired children in their early teens to work as temporary workers, serving dishes, taking orders, cleaning, greeting customers, and doing miscellaneous tasks.
The teenagers were all very happy about it, as they were given free drinks and food from time to time, and they also got paid.
After the busy work of transplanting rice, Lin Zisu did not forget to remind her parents and grandparents to buy fish fry and put them in the rice field, waiting for the autumn harvest to eat rice fish!
After planting rice, it's time to plant corn. Anyway, there is no idle person in the country, there is always a job suitable for you. Even if the people who have just come to the country spend half a day reading and half a day working to earn money, it is enough to keep people busy.
When planting corn in a field, you have to dig ditches first. Digging ditches is a tiring job. It is considered good if one can dig two or three acres of land in half a day.
Master Tian said to everyone, "Corn is wind-pollinated, so pollination is less in two rows. Planting more rows with shorter rows will help pollination."
"Okay! We'll do whatever you say!"
"Yeah yeah!"
"Master Tian, what do you think of these furrows and ridges?"
Master Tian: "Okay, just follow this!"
Master Tian: "You can plant some soybeans or sweet potatoes under the corn."
Rice, corn, and sweet potatoes were all new to them, and they were planting them for the first time. But soybeans were very familiar to them, and they were planted in both the north and the south.
Corn seedlings need to be grown in advance, and when growing seedlings, Master Tian went to various villages to teach on-site. The local people in Xinghai City and the people who moved here were all very excited.
In the past, when farming, seeds were directly sown on the ground, and there was no such thing as raising seedlings.
Corn seeds were distributed to each household, and everyone was taught how to grow the seedlings. When it was time to plant, each family took the corn seedlings they had grown and planted them in the fields.
After digging the furrows, each family took the corn seedlings they had grown and planted them in their own fields. They dug holes on the ridges, and put the roots of the seedlings in the soil, along with the soil, and then covered them with loose soil and watered them.
Lin Youfu took the corn seedlings to check, and saw the white fibrous roots of the corn seedlings sticking out from the soil. "Master Tian, this method of raising and planting seedlings is good. It does not hurt the roots of the seedlings, and there is no fear of the seedlings dying after transplanting."
When they were farming in the past, they often encountered a shortage of seedlings or dead seedlings. They would then exchange or buy seedlings from their own fields or other places to replant.
But the transplanted seedlings will take several days to recover, or they will become listless or die, which means the transplanting is in vain.
Master Tian: "It's not just corn that can be grown this way, it can be done for all crops. Sow the seeds directly into the ground, and the growth of the seedlings depends on fate. There will be good seedlings, but there will also be many seeds that will not grow, or the ones that grow will be weak seedlings, diseased seedlings, etc.
But using a seedbed to raise seedlings and then planting can solve all the problems. Moreover, raising seedlings will not waste manure, and it can ensure that the seedlings are good, avoiding seed waste and a lot of trouble later. "
Lin Youfu and his group nodded their heads. It was good to have a professional master to teach! They could avoid detours, avoid wasting seeds, and most importantly, increase the grain harvest.
