Chapter 71 Rice Fields

"This branch can gradually spread out, and when it reaches the ground, you can dig a few more and divert them out. The river flows quickly, and it is also suitable for branching into several more tributaries."

Xu Luqing opened his mouth to explain that he had considered far more than that.

"In addition, I also plan that if it is successful, we can also plant a few acres of rice, and then we will raise some snails, crayfish, rice flower fish and the like in the fields, and occasionally we can also have a tooth-making sacrifice."

In the past, they used to grow upland rice here, and although the harvest was good, since they could grow rice and raise some freshwater fish in the rice fields, why not do it.

Lin Wanwan didn't care about anything else, only hearing this, her eyes lit up.

"I think it's a good idea. Anyway, we all want to grow crops. It's also good to raise some freshwater fish, so we don't need to spend money to buy them."

Lin Wanwan nodded repeatedly. Among other things, she raised her hands in favor of raising crayfish in the rice fields.

"But can this really be done? It's not raining now, and the land is dry. It would be nice to grow crops. It's a bit unrealistic to plant rice fields and raise crayfish."

Lin Wanwan just looked at the drawing, but she couldn't see the flowers. After all, she didn't understand these things, so she had a lot of energy.

"Don't worry, as long as the river can be dug through, it will definitely work. But there is one thing, if the water is used for long-term irrigation, the fields will turn into sand, so it is not suitable for long-term planting."

Xu Luqing is aware of this, so he is not afraid of the jealousy of the villagers. If they are willing to turn their land into sand, they can naturally follow him to plant it.

But he doesn't plan to get too many rice fields, just plant an acre of land so that the family can eat fish and shrimp.After two or three years of planting, the land will be changed, and only vegetables and sweet potatoes will be planted.

Xu Lu had already made plans early in the morning. He didn't just decide what to plant in a flash of his head.

"You don't have to worry about other neighbors following suit. Fields are very important to farmers, and they care more about long-term development. After all, rice fields can only be used for two or three years. When they turn into sandy land, they can't manage it. Wasteland."

Farmers have to hand in part of the grain harvested every year, and almost all of the leftovers are only enough for their own food. Even if they have surplus, they will be taken to the town to sell for money.

Crops are their only source of income, and it is impossible for them to give up their food guys for short-term benefits.

The sand leaks water and fertilizer. Although Xu Luqing can grow rice in the sand, it takes too much time and energy, so there is no need for it.

"Our family has a small number of people to eat. Unlike other families, there are only a few children. Although the fields are a little more than ours, there are more places to spend money."

If it wasn't for this time, a bag of cornmeal would be absolutely impossible for someone like Xu Luqing to marry a daughter-in-law.

"That's fine. I don't understand these things, but if you say yes, I will believe it."

Lin Wanwan said seriously, she had no idea how much she wanted to be bullied by her appearance.

Xu Luqing was silent for a moment, then smiled again.

"I'm just talking about it, you just believe me, one day I sell you, maybe you will count the money for me."

Xu Luqing is just joking, not to mention that Lin Wanwan is so thin, not beautiful, and cannot be sold at a high price. Even if he really wanted to sell, no one would dare to buy it.
