Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 91 091 The prototype of Taoyuan Village [one more]

Mu Yu ran to the stone house of the village chief's house and came to the backyard of the stone house.

This place used to grow vegetables, but now it is empty, which is just convenient for her.

She had noticed this place when she was tidying up the stone house before, and she thought it would be used to test whether direct sowing could germinate.

Yes, she wants to plant some grain seeds harvested in the mustard space here to see if they can germinate directly and what the germination rate is.

When she was still in the ruined temple, she tried to plant the seedlings grown in the mustard space on the dry land outside. Facts have proved that this is feasible, and a considerable part of the seedlings survived.

Direct sowing is much simpler than planting seedlings, and it can save a lot of trouble, but she hasn't tried it before, so she doesn't know how it will work and whether it will work.

Guessing that time is running out, I thought about planting it quickly to see the situation.

The sooner you plant it, the sooner you will know the result.

She took out a handful of millet that had just been harvested two days ago from the mustard space, divided it into three parts and planted them in the yard.

The first portion is not watered, the second portion is poured with a bowl of well water, and the third portion is poured with a bowl of spring water.

She vaguely guessed that the spring water in the mustard space might have an effect on this, so she thought about experimenting, and anyway, she would know the result in ten days at most.

At this time, Yang Erlang came over from the front yard, stopped beside her, looked at the turned and watered land in front of her, and said,

"I knew you were here."

Mu Yu took the initiative to say, "I planted some millet and went down to see the situation."

"Is it the kind you said before that can grow in drought years?"

"Ah."

Yang Erlang squatted down and looked carefully.

"I tried it before, and transplanted seedlings can survive a lot even without watering, but they may grow slower.

I want to try how to plant it directly. Anyway, the results can be produced in ten days, and there will be no delay. "

Ten days is probably just enough to settle down the other people, set the rules, and let them get used to it. It is impossible to farm directly at the beginning.

Yang Erlang thoughtfully picked up a small handful of soil, found a seed in it, held it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully.

"These seeds, except that they can grow in dry land, are not much different from normal seeds, right?"

The food grown in the mustard space is fuller and tastes much better...

But it doesn't seem to make much of a difference.

"Not much difference."

"Well." Yang Erlang nodded, "In the beginning, everyone just wanted to survive, and they didn't think too much. At this time, they can say whatever they want, and they don't have time to think too much. But in the future, when they can eat enough, they may just Someone will be free to think about it.”

Mu Yu looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

"Although they can't make any waves, it will be troublesome if someone with a heart finds out.

So I think, when explaining these, it can be said that it is an ancient method handed down in the village for many years, so that you will not be exposed. "

Mu Yu nodded, "Yes."

There is no need to think about this kind of trivial matter, the two have a tacit understanding for a long time.

The two stood here for a while, and when they saw that it was almost dark, they walked in the direction of Yang Erlang's house where they stayed.

Mu Yu was thinking about how to arrange other people tomorrow, when Yang Erlang who was walking aside suddenly spoke,

"From now on, you will live in the stone house of the village chief's house, and everything will be fine in that house."

Mu Yu was a little puzzled, why did he say this suddenly.

But she still thought about it, living in the stone house of the village chief's house was a good suggestion.

The stone house of the village chief's house is the largest in the village and the safest. There are many houses inside, which can be used as warehouses, and the back yard can also be used to grow things.

She nodded, and then asked habitually,

"how about you?"

"Of course I still live at my house."

It sounds like there is nothing wrong with it, but Mu Yu just feels weird.

The two have always lived together.

But Yang Erlang didn't seem to have this feeling, he continued,

"Let Taohua live with you, this girl has a tougher personality and is outgoing, she can be your helper.

Granny Chen is also there. Although she is old, she is quick in doing things and has a lot of knowledge, so she can help you. "

Mu Yu was still thinking about what was wrong, but after thinking about it, there seemed to be nothing wrong.

Although living together is a little strange, but thinking about it, there is no reason to live together!

We used to live together, no matter in a ruined temple or on the road to escape from famine, it was not unconditional and unsafe, we had to live together.

But now that the conditions are met, why bother.

So he nodded in agreement.

Anyway, Yang Erlang's house is not far from the village head's house, it's only a few steps away.

Just as he was talking, he arrived at the place.

Li Dayou waited for the two of them at the door holding a crude torch, he was greatly relieved when he saw the two came back,

"The master is back, the meal is ready, let's eat quickly."

Because it was getting late, the three of them hurriedly finished their dinner and got ready to go to bed.

It was Yang Erlang who was keeping watch in the first half of the night, and she suggested that she watch the first half of the night and let Yang Erlang go to sleep.

Yang Erlang smiled lightly and told her to go to sleep,

"Don't worry, I'm fine tonight, I don't need to be comforted, you go to sleep.

They're coming tomorrow, and you need to take care to arrange them. It's okay if you don't have energy. Go to sleep. "

Mu Yu thought about it, so he didn't refuse anymore, and lay down directly.

But she didn't fall asleep directly, thinking about it, yesterday she stayed up most of the night before falling asleep, today it's still early, and the kang is so hard, she really can't fall asleep if she doesn't feel sleepy.

Anyway, it's still early, and it's not a big deal if you can't sleep for a while, so she started to think about tomorrow's things.

At noon tomorrow, no later than the afternoon, the others should be able to reach the top of the mountain, and the three of them have to go to meet them.

It's easy to say, this hole looks scary, but it's actually very simple, if someone is afraid, you can pull a rope, which makes people feel a little bit more secure.

The hole is quite big, and most things can be brought down, such as buckets, food, and small carts, these are not problems, but the cattle and ox carts may not be able to pass.

We have to think of a way to do this. Yang Erlang said that there is another entrance, and we can try it from there. If it doesn’t work, we can raise the cows outside first, and find someone to watch and feed them. It’s not a big problem.

After the reception is over, it is a matter of arranging the residence. This matter is easy to say, the members of each team are allocated together, the family lives in one place, and the other two people live in one place, or one person. Anyway, the house is enough.

As for supplies, there is nothing lacking. There are bowls for eating, and there are some basic living supplies in the house, which can be used completely.

These are easy to talk about, but the difficult problems are how to restrict activities, how to arrange things, and how to increase strength.

She doesn't want a loose village.
