Return to the countryside to engage in industry

Chapter 65 Fish Grow Slowly

Coincidentally, as soon as Yang Zhenyu came home, Wang Xiuying also talked about Wang Chunyan, saying that she hadn't come to play at home for a long time, and asked Yang Zhenyu if she had been indifferent to her recently?Remind Yang Zhenyu to be more enthusiastic about other girls, and praise Wang Chunyan all the time.

Yang Zhenyu's recent thoughts are all on the [-] mu of land in the back mountain. He can't think about so many things, but he just answered Wang Xiuying's words and started to study watermelon cultivation.

According to my own knowledge, the most important step in watermelon planting is germination and seedling raising.

After all, it is the first time planting, and he has no experience. Yang Zhenyu is going to try some watermelon seeds first.

Although watermelon seeds are not expensive, but if you plant them all at once, if you fail, it will take a lot of energy and delay the planting time.

The first step is to accelerate germination. Yang Zhenyu prepared warm water of more than 40 degrees, took out some watermelon seeds and threw them in for soaking. The soaking time is about [-] hours. Soaking the seeds can not only soften the seeds and facilitate germination, but also kill the seeds Pathogens on surfaces.

Not only watermelon planting, including rice planting, will also soak the seeds in advance.

Yang Zhenyu took note of the time, and waited until the seeds were soaked before proceeding to the second step of accelerating germination.

At noon, the weather was not too hot, so Yang Zhenyu drove to the back mountain to have a look.

The reclamation team organized by Luo Guiwen is working hard, and a large area has been turned over as far as the eye can see.

Seeing Yang Zhenyu coming, Luo Guiwen ran up with a teapot in his hand and handed it to Yang Zhenyu, "Xiao Yang, it's hot on the mountain, drink some water."

He wiped his face with the towel hanging around his neck, "Xiao Yang, to tell you the truth, this land has not been cultivated for too many years, it is difficult to turn over, and it may not be completed in three days, but I discussed it with the villagers. Now, I will only charge you three days' wages."

Yang Zhenyu instructed: "Old man, don't worry, take your time and tell the folks to take care of your body and don't suffer from heat stroke. I don't feel sorry for the wages, but your body."

"It's nothing. We've been working in the fields all our lives, so we know that." Luo Guiwen smiled, "Miao Zi is optimistic?"

Yang Zhenyu nodded: "Look, I'm going to plant some walnuts and red fruits, set aside another [-] acres to grow watermelons, and set aside [-] acres to build a greenhouse to grow grapes."

There is another purpose for coming to Houshan today, to see the terrain and make a good plan.

Yang Zhenyu plans to plan according to the terrain, and the [-] to [-] mu of land on both sides of the ridge, including his own [-] mu of land, will be used to grow walnuts.

This kind of larger fruit tree has no requirements on the terrain, and it can also consolidate water and soil when planted on both sides of the ridge.

The steep sandy land on the mountainside is used to grow red fruits, and the remaining [-] acres of land are used to build greenhouses, and the rest are used to grow watermelons.

Luo Guiwen is very much in favor of Yang Zhenyu's plan, but he is also worried for Yang Zhenyu, "Xiao Yang, the villagers can grow walnuts and red fruits like gourds and scoops, but growing watermelons requires technology and experience, and building a greenhouse, I heard It’s a bit expensive, but you need to do ten acres at once, do you have enough funds?”

Yang Zhenyu smiled and said: "Uncle, I have thought about the problems you mentioned. The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge, and there will be a way."

Luo Guiwen thought that he was not as flexible as Yang Zhenyu, so he couldn't say much. It was enough to make Yang Zhenyu feel his concern.

After the two chatted for a while, Yang Zhenyu drove around the Houshan Machinery Farming Road, and simply drew a planning map, which he then sent to the seedling company for reference.

I went home for dinner in the afternoon, took the sieve to the red worm farm, dried some red worms, and carried them to feed the fish.

This is a red worm that I raised myself, I don't know if the fish will like it?
Yang Zhenyu grabbed a handful, squeezed it into a small ball, and threw it into the middle of the pond. The red worm ball hit the water, and the water ripples dodged. After a while, several grassland seedlings swam over to suck it.

It seemed that the red worms he cultivated and bred tasted pretty good, so Yang Zhenyu threw all the red worms he caught into the pond in several directions.

After observing for a while, Yang Zhenyu suddenly discovered that the more than 1000 catties of prairie seedlings fed by Yang Kui at the beginning seemed to not like eating red worms any more. The young leaves of cod.

After half a month of breeding, the grass elves have covered the water surface in a small area. Yang Zhenyu doesn't need to feed the corn leaves, they can still eat enough.

But there is no effect of gaining weight.

Yang Zhenyu found that the size of these big fish fry was not much different from before. He speculated that perhaps the effect of the grass spirit was to improve the meat quality of the fish fry, and had no effect on fattening the fish fry.

If kept in this way, grass carp will also grow up, but the cycle will be longer, which is equivalent to the growth cycle of wild fish.

Yang Zhenyu has only signed a three-year contract with the village committee for the time being. According to the current growth rate, the fry will not be able to reach the most ideal weight in the market after three years.

It seems that it is necessary to start artificial feeding. In order to ensure the quality of the fish, Yang Zhenyu is not going to buy feed for feeding, but wants to try to prepare the feed himself.

During this time, when you are free, read more books and look up information to learn about the configuration of fish feed.

After feeding the fish and returning home, I made tea and licked the cat, then took the time to take out the watermelon seeds, wet the water with gauze prepared in advance, wrapped the soaked watermelon seeds and put them in a basin to wait for the seeds to germinate .

In the next few days, Yang Zhenyu would sprinkle water on the gauze wrapping the watermelon seeds every day, not only to keep the gauze moist, but also to ensure that the seeds could absorb sunlight.

At noon that day, Luo Guiwen also finished his work, and brought the reclamation team to Yang Zhenyu's house to wait for his salary.

Yang Zhenyu was very enthusiastic and brought several boxes of mineral water to the villagers.

"Everyone rest first, old uncle, you come in, I will settle the score for you." Yang Zhenyu said.

Luo Guiwen followed Yang Zhenyu into the house, walked to the door and saw the germinated watermelon seeds, squatted down to look at them, and praised: "Xiao Yang, you can do it. I didn't ask the master to teach me to germinate it myself."

Yang Zhenyu said with a smile: "The step of germination is very simple, not too difficult. You can do it if you want. The most difficult step is the next step, raising seedlings. To be honest, I have no idea, so I can only try."

"Your brain is good, so there shouldn't be a big problem." Luo Guiwen said with a smile.

"Thank you, uncle, for your compliment."

Entering the house, Yang Zhenyu settled the accounts for Luo Guiwen, "There are 30 people in the reclamation team, and each person is paid 13500 yuan per day. Here is [-]. You can take it out later and distribute it to everyone."

To be precise, it took the reclamation team three and a half days to complete the work, and Yang Zhenyu paid three days' wages according to Luo Guiwen's previous agreement.

The villagers themselves said the same thing. Many of them signed the contract and got the land contract money. At the same time, they also had the same idea as Luo Guiwen. They hoped to work under Yang Zhenyu’s hands in the future to make money. care.

"This is your share, old uncle." Yang Zhenyu handed it to Luo Guiwen.

"It's too much, Xiao Yang!" Luo Guiwen pushed and shouted with a smile. He watched Yang Zhenyu count out 1000 yuan.

"You helped me a lot by organizing the team. This is not much money, old man, just take it!" Yang Zhenyu said on the table.
