Leisurely monastic life

Chapter 450 The Field of Hope

Li Shishi went back to the room and fell asleep straight away, sleeping until dawn.

Waking up in the morning, Xiao Chunxiu looked at Li Shishi with a strange expression.Li Shishi's temperament is different.Xiao Chunxiu thought that her grandson finally couldn't bear to eat Li Shishi.Transformed from a girl to a woman.But something was wrong again, Li Shishi had an indescribable temperament.It's not as simple as a girl transforming into a woman.It is more like transforming from a delicate princess into a detached fairy.

"Grandma, where is Tianwang?" Li Shishi asked.

"Tianwang went to the field. I got up early in the morning and couldn't stay idle. Shishi, are you hungry? I'm going to make breakfast now." Xiao Chunxiu asked.

"Not hungry." Li Shishi shook her head.

In the countryside here in Hemawan, breakfast is only eaten at eight or nine in the morning.Every household has to go out to do work all morning, and they will come back to make breakfast when their stomachs are empty.Now the young and strong labor force in the village has gone to work in the city.The left-behind old people in Hemawan still maintain their habits for many years.

Luo Tianwang was checking the growth of the seedlings in the field at this time.Although he grew up in a rural area, Luo Tianwang has never planted crops like he does now, at least he has never carefully observed the conditions of each stage of seedling growth as he does now.But now, he had to figure out the growth law of the seedlings in the formation.Prepare for future expansion.The model on the experimental field is actually not worth promoting.At least subcontracting rice fields with such a high subcontracting cost puts huge financial pressure.One mu is 500 yuan, and [-] mu requires a subcontracting fund of [-] million yuan. The investment in farmland improvement may be higher than the subcontracting cost.In addition, all kinds of machinery are required, and huge investment will form a very huge gold-absorbing cave.No matter how good the development of Ruyi Farm is, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have such a huge cash flow.

Ruyi Farm has now become a well-known high-end food material trading enterprise in China. The supply of high-grade rice is huge. The quantity of high-grade rice produced by contracted farms and independent farms of Ruyi Farm cannot meet the demand at all.If these needs are to be met, a [-]-mu ecological rice field plantation is not enough.If [-] mu of paddy fields produce ecological rice, the yield per mu in a single season will be around [-] jin.The annual output is less than one ton.Moreover, the quality of early rice should not meet the requirements of high-grade rice.Therefore, [-] mu of rice fields can supply up to [-] tons of high-grade rice.This is simply a drop in the bucket for the needs of Ruyi Farm.

The growth of the seedlings is gratifying, and there is no possibility of pests. Every day, a large group of sparrows and a large group of crows clean up the rice fields in a grid format, and it is impossible for insects to survive in this area.The aura is abundant, the seedlings are strong, and their disease resistance is much stronger than that of ordinary seedlings.

"Tianwang, what kind of seeds are you planting in this rice field? Why do they grow so fast?" Luo Guangfu's voice sounded.

"Grandpa Guangfu. I grow ordinary grain seeds in this rice field. I bought them from the seed station in the town." Luo Tianwang said.

"The seedlings are growing really well, twice as good as the seedlings in ordinary rice fields. College students are different, and the crops they grow are much better." Luo Guangfu said.

Luo Changqing came over: "Uncle Guangfu, weren't you still worried about Tianwang's messing around? How about it? Tianwang grows crops much better than you, right? Tianwang grows crops without getting his legs dirty, just sit on the rice transplanter Just operate it. I haven’t seen him use nitrogen fertilizers or pesticides in this paddy field, and the crops grow much better than others. If you want to say it’s the reason for this paddy field, why didn’t they use it when Zhigang Dayong raised the field in previous years? How do you grow such good rice?"

"Well, it's science and technology. It seems that we old farmers have to retire. In the future, the rice fields will not be barren, but will be better. Tianwang planted dozens of acres of rice fields easily by himself. From now on, Tianwang will be able to handle all the rice fields in this village by himself." Luo Guangfu thought that Luo Tianwang used science and technology in the rice fields.

Luo Changqing also nodded: "Nowadays, we all pay attention to mechanized farming. In other places, airplanes are used to spray rice fields. But compared with Tianwang's ecological agriculture, it is still far behind. Tianwang does not need to fertilize or spray pesticides. In the past, this was called a lazy man’s field.”

"Paulin, come and take a look at the rice grown by Tianwang in your family. You have been a farmer all your life, but you can't grow such good rice." Luo Guangfu saw Luo Baolin approaching from a distance, and hurriedly shouted .

Luo Baolin was naturally very happy when he heard others praise his grandson, and he walked lightly.

"This is also something I learned from Tianwang University. It seems that this kind of farming must be cultured." Luo Baolin grinned.

The people staying in the village seemed to have heard the commotion, and they all ran over to watch the commotion.Usually, everyone didn't pay much attention to the situation in Luo Tianwang's rice field, but when they came to have a look today, they realized that Luo Tianwang's rice field was really different.Everyone finds it strange that good rice can be grown in this way.

But now it’s different from when the fields were distributed to households just a year ago. At that time, every household did not have enough food, and it was difficult to eat enough.Therefore, when good crops are grown in the rice fields, everyone is extremely happy.Now this kind of field is not promising.No matter how high-yield an acre of land is, it is only a few hundred catties more rice, and one catty more rice, at most, the difference is a few hundred dollars.What can a few hundred dollars do in this day and age?If you have less, you will not starve to death, and if you have more, you will not be rich.Therefore, rice is grown well, and everyone has nothing to envy.Take Luo Tianwang’s more than 30 mu of land as an example, even if the yield is increased by 1000 catties per mu (in fact, this is impossible, the maximum increase is about 3 catties), and the rice that costs two yuan per catty is only 10,000 yuan more an acre.Thirty acres of land, at most an extra [-] yuan.But Luo Tianwang spent [-]+ on subcontracting fees for the [-] acres of land.

It will take several years to earn back the capital, and it will also require good weather.Engaging in agriculture involves high investment risks, and the benefits obviously cannot be commensurate with the risks and inputs.

Although the people who came to see the fun were talking about Luo Tianwang, they didn't necessarily like what they praised in their hearts. On the contrary, they felt that Luo Tianwang had studied in college but came back to farm. He was really stupid for studying.

How does Luo Baolin know what other people think?He was very happy when he was praised as his grandson, and he kept giving cigarettes to the villagers.

"Tianwang, how do you estimate the output of your rice field?" Luo Guangfu asked.

"How do I know? Maybe it only grows seedlings and doesn't produce millet." Luo Tianwang shook his head and laughed.

"That's different. The growth is really good. How much does a stalk of rice seedlings produce? I reckon that the output of your rice field will not be low. At least one thousand and two. But, Tianwang, are you really good?" Are you going to fertilize? The seedlings are growing so well, they must have absorbed all the fertilizer in the rice field. If you don’t fertilize, you are afraid that you will be short of nutrients in the later stage. This will affect the yield." Luo Changqing asked.

Luo Changqing's elder brother Luo Changping also said: "Yes. It's not easy for the rice to grow like this. It's better to apply some fertilizer."

Luo Tianwang smiled and said, "This is an experimental field. I was just experimenting to see if I could grow good rice without fertilization. In the future, it will be used to grow organic rice. If I fertilize now, I won't be able to continue this experiment."

"That's true. However, if the rice lacks nutrients, I'm afraid the yield will be affected." Luo Changqing said worriedly.

"If the output is low, it will be low. As long as the quality is good, it is worth reducing the output." Luo Tianwang is not worried.He just wanted to know how effective this formation would be on the rice.

There are more and more loaches in the rice fields.After Luo Tianwang transferred the loach from the pond to the rice field, it spawned soon after.Now these little loaches have grown to the size of toothpicks.It can be seen everywhere in the rice fields.There are little loaches out, and there are many little tadpoles in the rice fields.Small loaches and tadpoles are mixed together, in large groups.These little tadpoles will grow into frogs in the future. I'm afraid there will be frogs everywhere in this rice field.

In fact, the reproductive ability of frogs is very strong, but the use of pesticides and fertilizers in rice fields is so serious that a large number of tadpoles cannot survive at all, and some human captures have resulted in fewer and fewer frogs.

Luo Tianwang wanted to restore the number of loaches and frogs in the rice fields first.Slowly improve the ecology of farmland.

The seedlings are very dense, and no one has noticed these changes in the rice fields.Even if you see it, you won't feel any surprise.How could there be no tadpoles and loaches in the farmland?
"Cuckoo"

Suddenly there was a cry of a tiger frog in the rice field.

"Tiger Frog!"

This kind of toad used to be very numerous.People here in Hemawan don't eat the most common green-skinned frog, saying that it is a sin to eat green-skinned frog.People in Hemawan only eat this kind of tiger frog. There used to be a lot of this kind of tiger frog. Just grab it with your hands.Tiger frogs are very big, and the largest one or two weighs a pound.Not only are the tiger frogs basically invisible now, but even the blue-skinned frogs are rare.The reason is that people have no moral bottom line, and they can do anything for money and desire.Knowing that frogs are beneficial, but for money and appetite, they still hunt and kill them indiscriminately.

These old farmers in Hemawan could not fail to hear the cry of the tiger frog.

"Hey, there are still tiger frogs here. Alas, this kind of tiger frogs used to be everywhere. Go out at night and find a few ridges, and you can catch a catty or two. It's hard to find now." Luo Guangfu sighed.

"Yeah. They've all been caught. Don't talk about tiger frogs, even green frogs are hard to see. No wonder there are so many bugs in the fields that we can't spray them with pesticides. In the past, there were no pesticides and fertilizers, so we didn't Do you want to farm? I have never seen so many insects. It was because there were a lot of frogs at that time." Luo Baolin also felt the same way.
