Reborn in the red years, I am farming in space

Chapter 43 Transplanting Mushrooms
There was a gust of wind, a gust of rain, and the torrential rain finally stopped in the early hours of the morning.

at this time.

The rice fields and ditches of the entire production team were filled with roaring floods rushing and roaring.

The air after the rain is fresh and slightly cold.

at this time.

It was the time when the middle-aged and middle-aged children in the production team went up the mountains and forests to find mountain goods, and went to the fields to dig fish and shrimp with a dustpan.

Luo Xuan walked out of the room, stretched his arms and stretched himself.

Now I don't have the heart to fish for fish and shrimp in the water.

Going to fish these things in the flood, the water was a bit cold, Luo Xuan didn't want to waste his precious physical strength doing things that couldn't bring him high returns.

I took a little look around my new home, the clear scenery after the rain.

Luo Xuan then entered the space, slipped out the broken pot that he had picked up, and put it in the shade of the yard.

Then I took the dustpan, dug some dustpan soil on the ground of the space, took it out and put it in a clay pot.

Done with this.

Luo Xuan took the hoe again and dug a small hole in the corner of the yard, taking advantage of the fact that the soil was soaked by the heavy rain and it was easy to dig.

Then find some gravel.

The stones were piled up with yellow mud to form a pond as small as half a ping-pong table, and then some of the big eels in the space were picked out and raised in the small pond.

On the small pool, Luo Xuan carefully covered it with a straw shed.

In order to prevent the mud pit from being exposed to the sun, it is difficult for the eels raised in it to survive.

However, these eels will be sold by Luo Xuan in the market tomorrow, and they will only be raised for a day or two, so the eels will definitely not die.

For the next while.

Luo Xuan estimated that the three brothers of the Zhou family would send him a lot of earthworms, small fish and shrimps this week.

If I take earthworms, small fish and shrimps into the space to feed eels every time, it is not easy to explain to others, what do I do with so many earthworms and horse shrimps?
Although judging from the degree of fear of the three brothers of the Zhou family, they might not dare to ask themselves questions.

But in the end, it would be better if we could try not to arouse others' suspicion, right?

So Luo Xuan planned to raise some earthworms in this clay pot first.

After two days, after I bought the chicks and ducklings, I could cover them up perfectly.

At that time, if someone thinks that Helix buys so many earthworms, small fish and shrimps, and feeds such small chickens, ducks, eels, etc., is it a bit too much?

Luo Xuan was already prepared for this.

I am only a child and a half, and the family has just been separated, and I have just established a household at the beginning.

Half a child is in charge of the house, and the house is collapsed.

Sometimes, doing things by myself is not so perfect in the eyes of others, and I take it for granted.

Just like the little daughter-in-law who is kneading noodles for the first time, it is normal to add too much water or flour.

Moreover!
Luo Xuan is the head of the family himself, so what should he do is none of their business?

If you feel that you are not safe enough to do things and care about yourself, you can come and give pointers.

But Luo Xuan would never allow anyone to come and point him out a lot.

After finishing all this work, it was already two strokes in the day, about 8 o'clock and less than 9 o'clock.

Usually at this time, Luo Xuan had already gone fishing for eels with a hook.

But now there is a flood in the rice field, and the seedlings are all submerged in the water, so I can't go out to catch eels.

Since he is so free today, Luo Xuan plans to do some work in the space and try to plant something.

There are many sweet potatoes planted in the field of the production team.

Generally, members of the commune go to get some sweet potato seedlings and sweet potato vine tips, but no one cares.

Anyway, we don’t have big livestock at home. Who can chew sweet potatoes and vines like pigs and cows?
With a basket on his back, Luo Xuan went to the field to cut some sweet potato vines and came back.

Cut the vine into about a foot long, then spin it in the space, insert it upside down into the ground, and transplant a sweet potato seed.

This time when planting sweet potatoes, Luo Xuan did not adopt the method of mounding the ground like the members of the commune used to do.

It's just because I really don't want to eat sweet potatoes. If the sweet potatoes are ripe, Luo Xuan only intends to use them as feed.

Therefore, this method of inserting Qian on the flat ground is very fast to work.

Soon.

After Luo Xuan transplanted the sweet potato seedlings, he left the space.

Just after I came out to take a rest, I heard someone calling me outside the fence.

"Luo Xuan! Luo Xuan!"

Every time Zhou Lao Er came to look for Luo Xuan, he always called Luo Xuan's name from a long distance away.

It was as if he was afraid that if he didn't reveal his identity in time, he would be tricked by Luo Xuan's agency.

At this time, Zhou Laoer had already been psychologically shadowed by Luo Xuan.

As for Boss Zhou, ever since he said the words "I surrender" to Luo Xuan, he always avoided Luo Xuan intentionally or unintentionally.

So every time something happened, the second son of the Zhou family always came forward to find Luo Xuan.

Follow Zhou Laoer's voice to look.

I saw a fish basket in his hand, as expected, it should be the Zhou family's second child who went to the gap in the rice field early in the morning to catch small fish and shrimps and came back.

Wait until Lao Zhou's second child approaches.

Sure enough, he took the fish basket in his hand through the fence.

Luo Xuan opened it and took a look: there were some small miscellaneous fish and pony shrimps of various sizes.

"A little over 3 catties."

Luo Xuan estimated the weight, then took out 3 candies and handed them to the second son of the Zhou family, saying, "After this calculation, our account has just been settled."

Holding the fish basket, Luo turned around and went back to the kitchen, pouring these small fish and shrimps into the casserole.

Then return the empty fish basket to Zhou Laoer.

"Luo Xuan, I found a good place for Nagano mushrooms!"

Zhou Laoer took the fish basket, and said to Luo Xuan in a mysteriously low voice, "I'll take you to see this place, it's my filial piety. Cough cough, count it as my contribution to you, okay?"

In the rural areas of Bashu Province, after the summer rains, the sky clears.

Many wild mushrooms will grow in some woods and mountain depressions.

As long as you find wild mushrooms in a certain place once, after the next rain, go there again, and you will definitely find mushrooms in the same place.

So where every child finds mushrooms is their secret, and they never tell anyone else.

Luo Xuan took out the last corn candy from his pocket, and handed it to the second son of the Zhou family, "I won't ask for your things for nothing. But why did you tell me this place?"

The second child happily took the candy, scratched his head, and said a little embarrassedly: "We have 5 places to pick mushrooms. In the morning, my brother went to the other 4 places to pick up mushrooms. Now he has gone to Hongxing Township to sell mushrooms." went."

When Luo Xuan heard it, he immediately understood.

The mushroom that the second child mentioned just now must be very small now.

The three brothers of the Zhou family can't wait to pick the last mushroom.

Because Boss Zhou has already left to sell mushrooms in Hongxing Township.When he sold the mushrooms on hand and came back to pick this place, the mushrooms might have been overblown and turned into useless things.

If the three brothers of the Zhou family had plucked it for themselves to eat earlier, they might as well "sell" it to Luo Xuan.

In this way, they can not only get a piece of candy to eat, but also bring the relationship between Luo Xuan and them closer.

This kind of wild mushroom grows very, very quickly. It only takes half a day for it to emerge from the ground and completely senile.

If you look at it in the morning, maybe it's only half the height of a chopstick.

But by the time you go there at noon, the mushrooms may have exceeded the height of one and a half chopsticks.

Moreover, this kind of wild mushroom is very intolerant to storage.

If you find that it is only one finger high in the morning, and you think the mushroom is too small, you might as well wait a while before picking it.

But when you go in the afternoon, it is possible that the mushroom has overgrown, the core is already hollow, and the crown and stem have already ignited.

Mushrooms like this kind of old and dying mushrooms have lost the fresh and tender taste of mushrooms, and they taste like chewing wood.

There are even many small maggots growing on the mushrooms that have been overblown.

This kind of mushroom is dry and woody, without the unique fresh taste of mushrooms, it is really inedible.

Luo Xuan followed Zhou Laoer to find the two mushrooms hidden in the corner of the woods.

This mushroom is really very small, it is only the size of a finger now.

Luo Xuan said to Zhou Laoer: "You go back first, I will wait here."

waiting?

The second child was taken aback, feeling at a loss: Although wild mushrooms are sold at a good price, after all, there are only two of them, so how much can they sell for?
Luo Xuan didn't think it was troublesome, just foolishly waiting for it to grow up here?
Feeling puzzled, Zhou Laoer didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he took the candy and left alone.

Wait until he's gone.

Luo Xuan used a small hoe to carefully dig out the dead tree trunks around the mushroom, and even the surrounding soil.

Then bring the mushrooms together with the bacteria and mud into the space, and plant them lightly by the spring pool.

This wild mushroom is extremely fresh and tender.

The delicacy of that kind of taste is by no means comparable to those oyster mushrooms and chicken fir mushrooms artificially cultivated by later generations.

During this period, it was not easy for anyone to eat wild mushrooms. Everyone did not have the technology and equipment to cultivate mushrooms artificially.

Usually, if you want to eat mushrooms, you can only rely on luck.

Only after it rains, will someone in the market come out with a few bunches of wild mushrooms and sell them along the street.

The shelf life of wild mushrooms is extremely short, and their attributes are a bit special, so if anyone picks up wild mushrooms, they can openly sell them.

And if there is no rain in normal times, there will be no trace of any mushrooms in the entire market.

Since the things in the space are not easy to rot and deteriorate.

Luo Xuan wanted to try if he could successfully grow mushrooms in the space.

If it succeeds, according to Luo Xuan's estimate, as long as he spares time to sell mushrooms, the price should be very high.

Rare things are more expensive, and this principle is the same in any era.

(Not to mention being poor, no matter how poor you are, you will never see beef being dumped into the ditch. No matter how poor you are, some people will eat expensive things. Hush⊙﹏⊙)
