slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 37 The Lazy Man's Vegetable Garden
After speaking, he seemed to feel that there was nothing to talk to Cang Hai, so the old man put on a plastic sheet and ran into the light rain again.

Keep planting trees!After Cang Hai made up his mind, he went to the kitchen to find something to eat, took his lunch with him, and drove the ugly donkey and dragged the saplings to Fenghuanggou once again.

After digging a few pickaxes, Cang Hai was very happy, because the soil on the light rain ground was much easier to dig, and now it only took less than half of the effort to make a hole of the same size, and then placed the tree, pinched the formula and cast the spell in one go.All of a sudden, he saved a lot of energy, and Cang Hai started to work a little harder. In just one day, he planted about thirty small bottle saplings, which was much smoother than before.

After three days of light rain, the efficiency of the Canghai side has improved a lot. The bottle trees in the entire Fenghuanggou area have been officially planted. The soil potential of Jiazituo is much flatter than that of Jiazituo, and the undulation of the soil potential is also small. The soil potential of Jiazituo is a big slope when it goes out of the ditch, and a deep ditch when it goes down the big slope. It's like a mountain sand table.

After working for two days, before the soil on the ground was completely dry, Cang Hai automatically extended the time for planting trees by two hours a day. He would go there before dawn in the morning and return to the village wearing the stars and the moon at night.

After finishing today's work, it was already past eight o'clock when I returned to the village.

"Haiwazi!"

As soon as he entered the village, Hu Shijie stopped Cang Hai.

"What's the matter?" Cang Hai asked.

Hu Shijie said: "There are not many vegetables in the village, you have to go to the village to buy some meat tomorrow!"

"I see, what food is missing?" Cang Hai asked again.

"Vegetables? Can't the vegetables in your garden top it?" Hu Shijie asked.

Hearing what Hu Shijie said, Cang Hai was taken aback for a moment: "Can I eat the vegetables in my home?"

Hu Shijie was as stunned as Cang Hai at this moment: "You kid, don't you know that your vegetable garden has grown?"

Cang Hai touched his nose: "I'm so busy planting trees these days that I really didn't pay attention!"

Hu Shijie lost his temper, and said "Go and see for yourself" with his hands behind his back, turned around and left.

Hearing this, Cang Hai drove the car back to his kiln entrance, and came to his vegetable garden on the slope of the new kiln entrance, and took a look. Good guy, the small green vegetables I ordered at home were almost up to my knees, and there were no green peppers and tomatoes. They all grew up to the thighs, and the whole vegetable garden was thriving.

It was dark and I couldn't see clearly, so Cang Hai went back to the kiln, went to bed after eating and washing, and planned to go to see his vegetable garden early tomorrow morning.

Waiting for the sky to brighten, Cang Hai got up and went to see his vegetable garden first thing.

Standing next to the vegetable garden, Cang Hai couldn't help but take a deep breath, it was dark last night and he couldn't see clearly, but this morning he looked at the guy, this small vegetable garden is full of vitality.

It is a good thing to say that it is full of vitality, but it is a bit strange if it is too full of vitality, because the vegetable garden of Cang Hai’s family is obviously much higher than that of other families, like the vegetable garden of Li Lida’s family not far away. Well, Grandma Li San is fertilizing and weeding. Now the vegetables in the garden are only half as tall as those in Canghai Garden.

"I'll go, there's too much water!" Cang Hai scratched his head.

The water Cang Hai mentioned is not well water, but the water in the space. When ordering seeds, Cang Hai diluted the water in the space and then soaked the seeds overnight. He didn’t expect that the dilution was not in place. Now these seeds It's growing slowly, the small tomatoes from other houses haven't grown yet, and these in the Canghai Garden are starting to bloom, and they will bloom in the next two days.

Grandma Li Qiu Shanghua did not know when she came to the side of Cang Hai, looking at Cang Hai's vegetable field, and then at her own vegetable garden, she opened her mouth and said: "This kid who has studied is capable. This dish is also better than that of our farmer's parents!"

Hearing Grandma Li's words, Cang Hai came back to his senses.

"It may be that no one has planted this land for a long time, and the soil is better."

Cang Hai didn't know how to explain the current situation, so he could only use the strength of the ground to explain things.

Qiu Shanghua took a look and said, "Maybe, but the cabbage in your field can eat anything, if you don't eat it, you will grow old!"

"Let's eat. I'll go talk to Grandpa Li later. From now on, I'll just pick and eat the vegetables in the field," Cang Hai said.

Qiu Shanghua reminded Cang Hai again: "Haiwazi, your chicken coop is ready, and the chicks are almost grown, it's time to let them out and let them get acquainted with the nest."

It was only then that Cang Hai remembered that his chickens had been kept at Second Grandma Li's house for her to take care of, so he nodded, "I'll go after eating."

Looking at the fresh and tender leeks in his vegetable garden, Cang Hai thought about making leek eggs at noon today?Then I thought that I still had to go to the countryside to buy meat, so I had to suppress this idea a little bit.

After looking at the vegetable garden for a while, Cang Hai went to look at his chicken coop.Canghai’s chicken coop was built by Wu Jun. At the place where Canghai is going to plant some fruit trees at the foot of the slope, there is a small brick house with a height of [-] meters, a width of more than [-] meters and a depth of more than [-] meters, like a small house. .

Next to the chicken coop is a sheep pen, which is the same small house, except that the sheep pen is surrounded by a fence, which encloses more than 100 square meters of activity space.

Seeing that his chicken coop and sheepfolds were all built, Cang Hai went to Second Grandma's house.

When I arrived at the second grandmother's house, I found that the old lady was feeding the chickens, and a large piece of chick cubs were surrounding the second grandmother. The old lady grabbed a handful of millet and kept cooing.

"Haiwazi is here?"

Seeing Cang Hai approaching, Second Grandma Li smiled and greeted her.

"Well, Second Mistress, let me take my chickens back to the coop," Cang Hai said.

At this time, the chicks have already shed their fluff and grown feathers, and a little red crown can be vaguely seen on the head of the little rooster, but some chicks are a bit disgusting, half-drawn on the buttocks. There is no Mao Xingzi at all, pure flashing bare butt playing hooligans.

Hearing that Cang Hai said that he was going to drive the chickens back to his chicken coop, Qian Ximei didn't say much, she put down the basket in her hand to feed the chickens, and helped Cang Hai drive the chickens together.

Cang Hai doesn’t have this ability. If Cang Hai came to chase him, he would be as quick as a chicken and a dog. He might not be able to drive the chickens into two groups in a day, but Liu Aifen has this ability, and he went around a few times. She drove out Cang Hai's chickens, and occasionally a few exposed chickens were also caught by her from her own chicken group.

Only then did Cang Hai realize that his own chickens had some red marks on them, but Second Grandma's chickens did not have these marks.

"You just follow me, you are not good at driving chickens!" Second Grandma Li signaled Cang Hai to bring over a small stick leaning against the wall, with a plastic cloth tied to one end of the stick. Received it in the hand, left and right, a group of chickens began to gather together.

"Go to the house and take the small net I prepared! And Mu Zhuangzi next to me, a dozen or so will do," Liu Aifen said again.

When he arrived at Second Grandma's house, Cang Hai found a plastic net wrapped around a stick in the corner of the wall, and there were about twenty small tree sticks more than one meter high, one end was flat and the other was pointed.

Seeing Cang Hai take something, Liu Aifen gathered a group of chickens and walked towards Cang Hai's new kiln.The group of chickens then obediently walked forward in the direction that Second Mistress waved the stick.

While driving the chickens, Liu Aifen also told Cang Hai about his experience in feeding the chickens, nagging about when to water the chickens and when to feed them.

"Take some food, surround it with a gauze net for two days, and wait for the chickens to get used to the nest before releasing them. After that, they will know how to return to the nest automatically."

Liu Aifen drove the chickens to the chicken coop, and helped Cang Hai to surround the chicken coop. In this way, there was another [-]-square-meter space in the chicken coop for a week. Even if the chicks wanted to jump out here, they could only look at the net. sighed.

The chickens were brought back, but Yang Canghai had to be kept at Second Grandma’s house for the time being, because he had no ability to feed the sheep at all, and there was no fodder in the house, and the surrounding area was even more bare. Even if there were some small weeds, the sheep had to be released. Now Cang Hai doesn't have the time to herd sheep, so he has to continue planting his own trees.

After tossing and turning for an hour, Cang Hai drove the donkey cart to the village. When he arrived in the village, he first went to see Wen Yiyi's tree planting field, only to find that half of the seedlings had been planted in Ren's tree planting field. Now he is 45 Worker No. [-] is working diligently.

Wen Yidao was not here today, but he heard from the workers that he had gone to the forestry professor in the provincial capital, so Cang Hai took a look around and then drove the donkey cart to the town to buy meat.I bought half a fan of local pork, and bought a sheep, which was probably enough for a week, and went straight back to the village without stopping.

The first thing I did when I got back to the village was Cang Hai took the scissors and went to cut leeks in his vegetable garden. There was no farm manure or pesticide applied in Cang Hai’s vegetable garden, and there was no mud. The leeks were fresh and tender when cut Hey, I took it back to the kiln and washed it twice, and I can still see a little green in the water for washing the leeks, which shows how tender the leeks in the garden are.

Li Liren happened to pass by Cang Hai's door, and saw Cang Hai washing leeks, so he asked, "Haiwazi, what are you doing?"

Cang Hai said: "I'm going to bake a few leek boxes to eat, and I'll give each of you a piece to try!"

"fried leek dumpling?"

Li Liren's eyes lit up immediately when he heard it, he was worried that he didn't have any dry goods tonight, when he heard Cang Hai mention the leek box, he immediately thought it was a good idea.

"Haiwazi, don't do it, follow me to cut the leeks. I'm going to make this leek box today. I was thinking about whether to continue with the meat buns tonight. Who would have thought that you are so greedy for new things!" Li Liren laughed. .

Hearing Second Grandpa Li's words, Cang Hai immediately picked up the basin: "Then I'll save trouble here!"

Putting down the pot, picked up the basket and scissors Cang Hai and Li Liren came to the vegetable garden together.

"This little leek is really pleasing to grow. You are the best. People who have drank more ink for a few years are really different. They are more active in farming than us big bastards." Li Liren immediately boasted when he saw the little leek in the Canghai vegetable garden .

Cang Hai did not expect that the vegetables grown in his own vegetable garden are better than those of others, and these people can all attribute it to reading.What Cang Hai didn't expect was that since he pumped water out of the old well, everyone took a high look at Cang Hai, and really regarded Cang Hai as the head of the family, and didn't think Cang Hai was just talking about it. Haiwazi.

Cut two handfuls of leeks and put them in the bamboo basket. When Cang Hai turned his head and saw that the basket was half full, he glanced at Li Liren again and found that with a wave of the sickle in his hand, he easily cut off a piece of leeks. The efficiency was his own. ten times of that.In terms of brains, Cang Hai has an advantage, but in doing farm work, Cang Hai can't keep up with these folks, even if these people are almost ancient.
