Chapter 523 Growing Sweet Potatoes (33)

The next morning

Zhang Feng squatted at the door and saw the second uncle walking by the door with a basket on his back, so he asked with a smile.

"The second uncle is going uphill?"

"Yes, I'm going to plant some sweet potatoes!" Seeing Zhang Feng, the second uncle responded with a smile.

"Isn't the land under the fruit tree empty? No, I'm going to plant some sweet potatoes in it. By the way, Xiaofeng, your family won't grow sweet potatoes this year?" The second uncle finished speaking, and then asked Zhang Feng.

"I don't know, my family hasn't raised sweet potato seedlings yet!" Zhang Feng shook his head, not deciding whether to grow sweet potatoes, because the family can't eat much.

"Hehe, there are a lot of sweet potato seedlings in my field. If you want, you can just dig in the field yourself." The second uncle said generously. Anyway, it is useless to take too many things, and the rest will be picked home and fed to the pigs.

In a big city, the stems and leaves of sweet potatoes can be sold as vegetables, but in small places like Qingshan, sweet potato leaves are something to feed pigs, and few people are willing to eat them, so they cannot be sold at all, and they are very difficult to sell. Few people will take it to the market to sell.

"Then I won't be polite, Second Master!" Zhang Feng said with a smile, after thinking about it, he decided to have a little more.

"Hehe, do you still need to be polite to me?" The second uncle waved his hand indifferently. It's just a little sweet potato vine. Compared with Zhang Feng's help to him, it is nothing worth mentioning.

Now everyone's life has become so good, with a monthly income of [-] to [-], isn't Zhang Feng responsible for all this?So everyone is very grateful to Zhang Feng.

Especially the second uncle, who has a better impression of Zhang Feng, because last year, Zhang Feng recovered for him the hundreds of dollars stolen by thieves. It was because he worked hard to sell vegetables for more than a month. Yes, so now, the second uncle is still very grateful to Zhang Feng.

"Then Xiaofeng, I'm leaving first!!"

"Go slowly, I'll be here in a while."

Zhang Feng smiled, and when the second uncle disappeared on the mountain road, Zhang Feng returned home, took out the hoe from the utility room, and drove towards the orchard on his bicycle.

"Xiaofeng, here, here!!" Seeing Zhang Feng coming, the second uncle smiled and waved.

"Hey!" Zhang Feng responded with a smile, carrying a hoe like a sweet potato field.

"The sweet potato seedlings are here, dig as much as you want!" the second uncle said cheerfully.

"Thank you so much, second uncle!" Zhang Feng was not polite, he raised his hoe and started digging.

Sweet potatoes are not directly planted. You need to use sweet potato pieces to raise seedlings. After the seedlings are drawn to the vines, roots grow on the vines. At this time, you can dig out the sweet potato vines and plant the places with roots in the soil. This will not only save a lot seeds, but also conducive to the growth of sweet potatoes.

"Xiaofeng finished digging? Don't you want to dig more?"

"Thank you, Second Uncle, these are enough."

Zhang Feng nodded with a smile, then hugged a bundle of sweet potato vines, just like walking in his own field.

Zhang Feng was digging holes and planting at a very fast speed. In less than half an hour, a large piece of sweet potatoes with an area of ​​[-] to [-] square meters was planted.

Seeing that the second uncle was still busy in the field, Zhang Feng went over to help with a hoe.

"The second uncle asked me to help you!!"

"Hehe, thank you Xiaofeng, you young people are still fast. Thinking about when I was young, it was not bad. I was also an expert at work in the village. Of course, I won the first prize in the production competition issued by the production team! !" The second uncle told Zhang Feng about the glorious deeds of his youth with a smile.

"Hehe, I didn't expect the second uncle to be so powerful when you were young!!"

"Hey, of course, that's me, but I'm a party activist in the village. If your grandfather didn't let me get involved in the struggle, I guess I'd be able to eat in the public house and become a civil servant!"

"is it?"

"That was, back then..."

When talking about the things in his youth, the old man suddenly became interested, and when he talked vigorously, his eyebrows were beaming and his hands were dancing.

"Oh, it's a pity that the year was too chaotic, you didn't know that time..."

"So scary??" Zhang Feng was also taken aback. For people of his age, chaos is still too far away, so it doesn't matter. This is the first time he has heard of such a terrifying thing.

The second uncle still had some lingering fears when he said that, that era was too chaotic, so the second uncle's father, that is, Zhang Feng's grandfather, did not let him join the party and become a cadre of the commune.

Hearing this, Zhang Feng was also silent. Thinking about how good our current life is, it is really worth cherishing.

"That's why, only those who have experienced turmoil know the value of peace. Look at the current West Asia, which is in a mess. The Americans are bombarding it, and the people there will have a hard time!!"

The second uncle shook his head and said with a sigh.

The strong survive, while the weak can only cling to the strong, either surrender or be destroyed. This is the law of survival of countries in this world, and it is more cruel than the competition between people.

However, the current Huaxia is not without strength to fight back, and the country has made great progress after obtaining the technical information on fighter planes and missiles provided by Zhang Feng.

I believe that in two or three years, Huaxia's latest fighter jets and long-range air-to-air missiles will be born. By then, even if they face the United States, Huaxia will not hesitate at all.

"Thank you, Xiaofeng. If it wasn't for your help, I don't know how long I would have been busy!" About a quarter of an hour later, the two finally finished planting sweet potatoes, and the second uncle thanked Zhang Feng with a smile.

"You're welcome!" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Xiaofeng, go back first, I'll go back after weeding some more." The second uncle said to Zhang Feng.

"Weeding? My family, Dabai Xiaobai, is the best at weeding. Don't bother me, I'll take them to you, and I'll eat up all the grass in two days!!" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

Two days ago, the two idiots had just finished eating the weeds in their orchard. No, they have been idle at home for the past two days. They ate and slept every day, and they ate and ate after sleeping, or they just played cute with their mother and strolled in the yard Take a walk, don't live a comfortable life.
