Farmers in the courtyard

Chapter 5 Chapter 005: Farming is a technical job
Arriving at the other end of the valley opposite the log house, Wang Zhendong stopped the car.

He jumped out of the car, came to the gate of the fence, lifted off the wooden door bolt, and opened the gate.

Then he put his hand into his mouth and whistled.

The five horses in the distance moved upon hearing the sound and ran towards this side.

Four of the five horses were male and female pairs, and the other was a newborn foal.

The horses circled around Wang Zhendong twice. Wang Zhendong touched each one and then patted them flatteringly.

"Go and run..."

The four adult horses, together with the foal, began to run wildly, looking extremely happy.

The empty and flat valley plains, fertile land, densely covered with wild grass, are lush and green.

Wang Zhendong decided to put the horse outside the fence for the time being.

Anyway, the wheat from his one acre of land had been harvested before returning to Beijing from the Northeast a few days ago.

Don’t worry about it being spoiled, it’s just a small vegetable patch, you have to find a way to surround it.

Maybe we can keep the horses in the orchard over there...

A few horses should not cause damage to the fruit trees in the orchard.

The dozen or so sheep can't do it. The sheep will chew the bark of the tree.

The pigs are even worse. Those pigs are almost turning into wild boars. If they were put in the orchard, the roots of the trees would have to be dug up.

Pigs are too destructive. In the future, pig pen breeding will still have to be carried out, using logs to build several larger pig pens.

It’s just hard to catch now!

Of course, it can be solved without capturing him alive with a few shots, but capturing him alive would be a bit difficult for him alone.

Then we can only catch the little pigs and kill the big pigs.

The little pigs are raised in captivity, and the big pigs find ways to sell their meat.

However, the breeding pigs still need to be kept for breeding. There is no rush yet. When everything stabilizes, he will slowly plan the valley.

After closing the fence door again, Wang Zhendong drove back to the yard.

The car parked at the yard and then returned to the log house.

The log house is actually a kitchen and a warehouse, with things piled up in a mess.

The beams were covered with dark bacon, and dozens of large sacks containing wheat and corn were piled in the corners.

The quantity is more than 3000 kilograms, accumulated over the years.

There is no way, there is no time to open up wasteland, and there is no time to stay in the space for a long time.

We can only grow so much over the years, and we need to spread some from time to time to feed the pigs and chickens.

If it cannot be carefully managed, the yield is actually not high.

The seeds are dense, the ears are small, and the seeds are sparse, but the yield is still small, not to mention the impact of weeds.

Farming is a technical job!
Agricultural machinery must be transformed as soon as possible, so that tens of thousands of acres can be reclaimed. Even if the output is low, the total output will be scary.

One square kilometer is one thousand five hundred acres, and this valley and plain covers almost twenty square kilometers.

The length is about seven kilometers and the width is about four kilometers, minus the breeding area, machinery yard, streams, houses, orchards, etc.

The developable land is almost fifteen square kilometers, or 2 acres.

Thinking of this number, Wang Zhendong swallowed.

It was just him, and he felt so tired just thinking about it.

The transformation of agricultural machinery requires not only plowing machinery, but also a harvester.

Otherwise, there is nothing he can do if the seeds rot in the ground.

I have to design it and find the agricultural machinery factory in Sijiucheng to process some parts. I don’t know if it will cause trouble.

At this time, everything produced by factories was planned.

Don’t use iron plows for plowing, just do it in one step, get a rotary tiller and hang it on the back of a light tank.

Then find a way to connect the external power output to the rotary tiller.

The horsepower is certainly sufficient, no need to worry about that.

Unknowingly, Wang Zhendong was sitting at the door of the log house and began to think about these things.

Finally, he checked the time on his watch, then quickly took off his clothes and left the space.

The watches on his wrists were also confiscated, and he had many of them.There are military watches from Vacheron Constantin, Patek Philippe, Longines, Lange and other brands, but the one on his wrist is just Omega.

There were too many gadgets in that cruel war, including Swiss army knives, lunch meat, chocolate, cigarettes, chewing gum, lighters, tents...

It can be said that various battlefield supplies can be seized easily.

Of course, it's easy for him because he has a lot of space.

You can even easily sneak into the enemy camp and carry out a one-pot operation.

There are just a lot of things that cannot be taken out in this era.

After leaving the space, he did not get dressed again, but closed the damper of the coal stove, lifted the kettle, and put the iron cover on the stove mouth.

Then I put the kettle on, turned off the lights in the living room, and went into the bedroom to sleep.

At this time, the fire bed was already warm and it was very comfortable to sleep on.

Putting his coat on the quilt, Wang Zhendong pulled the light switch.

……

Early the next morning, Wang Zhendong, who had had enough sleep, got up.

After getting dressed, I came to the living room and checked the coal stove first. Fortunately, there was still fire, so I immediately opened the damper.

I went outside and shoveled some briquettes and added them in.

However, when I went out just now, I saw Qin Huairu again, wearing a bloated dress, holding a little boy about five years old with one hand.

One hand also held a small wooden bucket with a lid.

He hurriedly walked outside, apparently to use the toilet.

This is the inconvenience for the people in Sijiu City. The public toilets are too far away and they have to rush there early in the winter.

You even had to queue up, especially to empty the toilet bucket. You can imagine the smell of the scene.

Wang Zhendong couldn't bear to think about it. Fortunately, he had space. He closed the door and fastened it, and he entered the space.

It not only solves the problem of going to the toilet, but also increases the fertility of the valley and plains.

Pulling daddy in the wilderness, one word, cool!

As for having a bathroom in a room in a courtyard, that is a joke. This problem has not been completely solved even after decades.

Although Wang Zhendong saw yesterday that workers were excavating at the intersection of Gulou East Street and Jiaodaokou East Street.

There are also a lot of cement pipes piled up on the roadside. It seems that they are laying sewer pipes, but don't think about it in the alley.

In the courtyard, all the old rainwater was drained into the water, and many places were still open ditches. At most, they could only wash clothes and vegetables.

If you want to connect the sewage pipeline to the main road outside, it will be a big project, and a lot of courtyards will have to be demolished.

It's completely impossible. Besides, there are people who specially collect the waste water from public toilets in Sijiu City.

From rural areas outside the city, donkey carts would come regularly to take them away.

Before liberation, excrement was a big business, and there were also dung bullies, who were very profitable.

After leaving the space, Wang Zhendong felt refreshed.

He had already washed up in the space just now, so he went out directly and went to the breakfast shop for breakfast.

At this time, there are also small private individuals in the breakfast shop.

That is to say, it is run by one person and is divided into small owners. Many people have no choice but to make a living and survive.

Of course, the small business owner element is actually nothing. They also belong to the common people. Even in the later years, the small business owners had little influence.

In fact, there are many small owners in Sijiu City, after all, it is such a huge city.

Eating, drinking, sleeping, and everything else requires the circulation of materials.

It is also impossible for the public to handle everything.

Just like the human-powered tricycles, human-powered tricycles, donkey-horse carts, and wheelbarrows all over the streets, they are all small business owners who make a living.

Also called a small businessman, Wang Zhendong actually didn't understand why Si Zhu was a farmhand.

First of all, He Daqing owns two rooms, one in the front and one in the other. This has nothing to do with the farm laborers.

Landlords, rich peasants, middle peasants, lower-middle peasants, poor peasants, and the last and lowest category are the poor peasants and farm laborers.

He Daqing's family of three are destitute farm laborers?
Besides, city people are not classified in this way, but are capitalists, small businessmen, and workers.

To be more detailed, they are big capitalists, small capitalists, businessmen, small owners, poor people, and workers.
