Chapter 197 Preparing to Transplant Peppers
After leaving the Huangliang Escort, Shisi rushed over to buy ten barrels of tung oil before Nanshi closed.

That night, she coaxed Xiao Yan to sleep, but she didn't sleep, so she found "The Legend of the White Dragon" and read it at night by candlelight.

With the sound of the drum at the third watch, Shisi put away the books, changed into black clothes, and went out of the room, blending into the night.

Coming to the west of the city, the quite magnificent building of Changshun Escort Bureau is very easy to find among the ordinary dwellings.She touched the inner courtyard along the wall and found the most important place.

The first bucket of tung oil was splashed on the door and window of the study.

For the second bucket, I was fortunate enough to be in the counting room not far from the study room.

He took out three more buckets and connected the study room with the accounting room.

Changsun Xing and Changsun Yan should live in the main bedroom.Fourteen thought about it for a while, and continued to touch the sleeping position.

There are people living in the main bedroom and the surrounding corridors, which are not as troublesome as the study room.Fourteen cats swept silently under the eaves, took out all the remaining five barrels of oil, opened the lid, and lined up beside them.

Then in one go, he quickly poured out all five barrels of oil.

"Who?" The movement really alarmed people, "Who is outside?"

What responded to him was the fire book that Fourteen blew and threw out.

boom!
As soon as the oil and fire came into contact, a magnificent wall of fire immediately spread out.

If it wasn't for a place that needs to be lit, Fourteen would have stopped to appreciate it for a while.

Hearing that the people inside had arrived at the door, she immediately turned around, jumped away from here, and returned to the place just now.

With the same operation, another wall of fire was immediately raised, and the fourteen splashes were well-proportioned, just in the shape of "Hui".

"It's on fire! It's on fire!"

"It's on fire! Put out the fire!"

The entire Changshun Escort Bureau woke up from a deep sleep...ah no, sat up startled in the dream, then went to fetch water with a bucket, and hurriedly put out the fire.

Fourteen looked back at his masterpiece in the hustle and bustle, retired with satisfaction, and left.

The forces behind the group of Changshun Escorts are by no means easy to play with.But others have already bullied her to the door, and she is really depressed if she doesn't respond.

Fourteen has never been a person who would make himself feel depressed.

……

"Have you heard? The Changshun Escort Bureau caught fire for some reason last night. The flames lit up the entire west of the city red."

"I heard it, I heard it early in the morning, and the fire started from the inner courtyard, burning from the inside out. When it was extinguished, more than half of the entire Changshun Escort Bureau was burned down."

"Fortunately, it started from the inside. If it started from the side, wouldn't those who live around them be innocently involved?"

Early in the morning, Shisi rode out on horseback, and the road was full of people's discussions.

This voice made her start her busy day in a good mood.

The pepper seeds sown more than ten days ago have emerged and are ready for transplanting.

Due to the sudden situation, Shisiyi was nowhere to be seen for more than ten days in a row, Xiao Qilang, his wife and Lin San were in a hurry.Suddenly seeing her coming early in the morning, the three of them were both surprised and happy.

"Miss, you are finally here."

"Fourteen, is something wrong, why haven't you been seen for so many days?"

"The three of us are discussing. Seeing that the seedlings have grown, if you don't see your person anymore, I will ask your cousin to go to the county."

"Suddenly something urgent happened, and I didn't have time to say hello to you." Fourteen tied the horse to the willow tree on the ground, "It's been resolved, cousin and sister-in-law don't worry."

"That's good, that's good." Seeing Fourteen's natural expression, Tian Qiao was no longer worried, "The seeds that were sprinkled a few days ago have sprouted, and it seems that they have grown to the height you mentioned. Let's see if they can Hit the ground?"

"The people I found before are also asking when they will start work, and they are all waiting at home." Xiao Qilang said.

Fourteen took a few steps around the pepper seedlings: "It's ready to be transplanted."

"Cousin, go and inform those people, and start today." She asked Lin San, "Have you finished the shovels that you were asked to go to the county town?"

Fourteen drew simple drawings for Lin San and asked him to take them to the blacksmith shop in the county to make a hundred small shovels for transplanting pepper seedlings and weeding in the future.

"It's all done, lady." Lin San replied, "I just took it back two days ago, and it's in the house."

"Okay." Fourteen nodded, and said to Xiao Qilang, "Cousin, when you go to call someone, ask them to bring their own water pickers and wooden buckets, and when transplanting pepper seedlings, you need to water them while transplanting. Water, when transplanting, you need to fetch water from the nearby river.”

"Okay, I've remembered, I'm going to call someone now."

"Wait." Fourteen called to stop him, "I haven't finished yet."

"What are you in a hurry for? Listen to what Fourteen has to say." Of course Tian Qiao is aware of her man's little problem. When she gets excited, she becomes irritable. She looks like she's a teenager again.

The fourteenth battle was obviously going to be a big event, and this big event was also related to farming.Xiao Qilang was born in farming, and Fourteen showed such trust in him that he entrusted so many things to him.So he was full of thinking about doing more, doing things well for Fourteen, and proving his ability.

If you are eager to express yourself, you will be easily agitated, and when you are agitated, you will easily become disorganized.

No matter if you are doing big or small things, what you are most afraid of is getting out of order.Tian Qiao had noticed this a few days ago, so she was more careful and reminded Xiao Qilang all the time.

"Oh, good." Xiao Qilang was a little embarrassed, scratching his head, "What else, Fourteen, you continue to talk."

"Cousin, can you help me ask if everyone wants to sell the plant ash in their house?" Fourteen said, "I'll pay for it, two cents a catty."

"Plant ash? Is it the ash from under the stove?"

"Yes." Fourteen nodded, "Before transplanting the pepper seedlings, sprinkle a layer of plant ash on the ground to facilitate the subsequent growth of peppers."

These are all the information she searched temporarily on the Internet. The soil for planting peppers is preferably neutral or weakly alkaline. Sprinkling a layer of plant ash before planting is conducive to the growth of peppers.

Fourteen's previous life had nothing to do with farming. Now he has to make money by farming, which is basically crossing the river by feeling the stones.

Fortunately, there are enough plug-ins, and the stones in the river are very easy to touch.

"Usually the stove ash in everyone's home is used to retting manure. I have never heard of anyone buying it with money. Of course they agree to sell it if you pay for it." Xiao Qilang said, "Two pennies a catty is expensive. Let's go!"

"Dung?" Fourteen said emotionally when he heard the words, "Then you can ask me, by the way, whether the dung in their house is sold or not."

There are no chemical fertilizers in this era, and the topdressing of crops depends entirely on natural organic fertilizers.Her peppers will definitely need to be fertilized in the follow-up, and it is still a large amount.

"This... this may be a bit mysterious." Xiao Qilang frowned, "Everyone's dung is reserved for their own land, except for their own, there are people who go out with dung baskets to pick up horse dung and cow dung. This season happens to be the season for wheat seedlings to grow, and the field is short of fertilizer."

"That's right, Fourteen. Farmers live on the land. It's not good if you don't go to the dung field, so you have to collect ashes and harvest well. It shouldn't be easy if you collect dung." Tian Qiao said, "Even if someone watches you I am willing to sell at a high asking price, but I can’t get a lot.”

"My lady." Lin San said, "I think of someone, and my lady might want to get to know him."

"You said."

"Madam, do you know about the Yexiang shop in the county? If you want to buy dung water to fertilize the fields, you can find them."
