Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 47 Boy Scouts

"You guys are busy. I think the carriages are free now. Go and get some water and start growing vegetables!" Su Mu looked over to the land reclamation team. Everyone was busy with their work, but the five carriages were Leisurely stopped on the ground.The dozen or so acres of land yesterday had all been tidied up, so we can't keep delaying like this, it's best not to miss anything.

Su Mu rode Er Ba Da Kick and kicked back.

He thought that he had to go to the city to buy things if he had time, at least he had to find a better means of transportation than Erba Daki.

The place in the mountains is already big, and it's easy to go out for more than ten or twenty miles.Always kicking back and forth like this, before Huatanao gets rich, I have to get tired and get sick first!

After finally kicking back to the original place, Su Mu's coat was a bit damp.

"How's it going over there? If there's a shortage of manpower, send a few more over there." Mrs. Hei was skillfully leading the charge with a lawn mower, and asked with a smile when she saw him come back.

Su Mu was so tired that he was out of breath, waved his hands and replied: "I think there is still not enough manpower. Tonight, we will gather all the able-bodied people in our village. The strength of the number of people is great! The carriage is idle at the moment. If you are idle, why don’t you send two people to catch up with two cars and go to the river to bring some water here, I want to plant all the land that was driven yesterday.”

"It rained a little last night, and the ground is still wet right now, so it's suitable for farming." Mrs. Hei stopped the machine and looked into the crowd, and said in a low voice, "Let the boss drive the car. Besides, he is an expert in the crops." After all, he is not as physically strong as our young people, just let him rest for a while."

Boss Che is only in his forties, but his seniority in the village is high, so he is usually called uncle.

Most of the ten-year-old children who run and play in the street all day have to call him grandpa, and even the younger ones have to be called grandpa.

When the village chief recommends someone, he sees him as a good crop grower; he is especially good at driving, and he is also down-to-earth and willing to work.

It's just that, after all, Boss Che is not as good as a strong laborer in his twenties and thirties.Although the work is quite good, compared with a group of young men who are like wolves and tigers, it seems a bit slow.

"Uncle Boss, you can find another helper and catch up with two cars to transport water from the river. I'll plant the land I made yesterday and serve it with vegetables. Didn't I say 'one year's mistakes are made by people', It's better to go early for everything." Su Mu parked his bicycle and came up to ask the owner of the bicycle.

The owner of the car did not stop turning over the ground, and said with a smile: "Muzi is fine, and he knows a lot of country slang! That doesn't need two people, I can do it by myself!"

He poked the shovel in his hand to the ground, wiped the sweat with the towel around his neck, poured out the soil in the shoes and put them on again.Walking to the ground, he said: "Most of the horses in the village are trained by me. Now my big white horse is pulling the cart in front, and I am following behind. But, we have to go back to the village first. Pull up the big wooden barrel for carrying water, and you have to ask those wild boys to help fetch water."

While talking, the owner of the car had already sat in his carriage and greeted him: "Muzi, come up quickly, I'll go back to pull the barrel and call for a helper; you happened to bring all the rapeseed with you."

After Su Mu sat firmly, the owner of the carriage slapped his whip in the air and yelled a few times. The big white horse pulling the cart really walked forward obediently, and another brown carriage followed.

"Uncle Boss, this is the big white horse you mentioned yesterday? When will you let me enjoy riding it?" Su Mu was still thinking about riding a horse.

The owner of the car laughed, pointed to the saddle and other things on the carriage and said: "It was prepared for you, who knows that you didn't come with me today. After finishing the business, bring the water over and plant the vegetables, I will set it up for you." Come on, let you try riding a horse."

Not long after, two carriages entered the village.

Su Mu got off the car at the entrance of the village to "get" the rapeseed; the owner of the car yelled at the animals and went to the village committee compound.

In the past, whenever there was a drought, the villagers had to pull a horse-drawn cart to carry water to the river to irrigate the land collectively, so the village head specially bought a few big buckets.They are usually placed in the compound of the village committee, and whoever needs them can pull them by themselves.

When Su Mu took out a small bag of the labeled rapeseed in the space and waited at the entrance of the village.I saw a large group of wild boys running out with their own buckets, shouting loudly.

"Brother Muzi, let's go to the river to catch fish, will you go? It's fun!" The kid Wang carried the biggest bucket, and when he saw him, he shouted: "The little fish you catch are washed clean. Salt it and dry it in the sun, and when you want to eat it, fry it in a frying pan, it's very fragrant!"

As the saying goes, the children of the poor are the head of the family early, and the older ones are now the main force in cooking at home.

When it comes to delicious food, everyone will show their hands.

It's just that the villagers don't have much money in their hands, and they can't afford to eat big fish and big meat.Most of them are children touching wild food in the fields, and occasionally making tooth-beating sacrifices.

"You all know how to catch fish? How dare you! Today you even fetch fish with water belts. After you pack up the small fish, come to my house to fry them." Su Mu knew that his family members were reluctant to eat fried food.Don't look at the lively talk at the moment, 90.00% of the small fish can only be grilled and eaten by himself, so he agreed to help fry the fish.

"Okay! Let's go, hurry up and follow!" The child king was immediately happy when he heard it, and took the lead to rush towards the Taohua River in the distance.

The owner of the car just came back with the car. Seeing the enthusiasm of these wild boys soaring, he asked with a smile: "Did you promise them something again? They said just now that you will help you with your money this afternoon. Give them sweets! These little fellows are all greedy!"

"Children are like this." Su Mu also raised his legs and sat in the carriage, and put down the rapeseed in his hand, "Don't underestimate them, everyone is a little devil. If you have time to plant fruit trees on the mountain behind us, it is necessary to let the boy scouts help. Let's go live. Bribe and bribe first, and let them help with any less strenuous work in the future.

After a long time, they probably began to think about the benefits of the school.When the time comes, the school will reopen in the village, let's see who will skip class! "

Su Mu still learned this trick from his former junior high school teacher.

At that time, many mischievous boys skipped classes all day long, and they couldn't control it anyway.Their homeroom teacher simply discussed with the parents and asked those guys who skipped classes to go to the county construction site to move bricks for a week.As a result, in less than a week, those guys who love to skip classes all sat in the classroom to study honestly.

In their words, it's still easy in school.In the future, if you don't pass the exam and have no ability, you will have to move for a lifetime!Mixed foreman or something, that's just a few capable ones, and most of them haven't spent their entire lives doing nothing to earn a living?
Su Mu thought that he couldn't keep raising the children like this, and let them do farm work when he had free time. After a long time, he would be able to figure out the benefits of going to school and become willing to learn.

"Boss, why did you come here so slowly?" The kid king led a group of children, and had already set up a long queue of buckets filled with water by the river.

After the carriage came, the boy scouts swarmed up and poured the water in the barrel into the big wooden barrel consciously.

Che Boss cheerfully told them to slow down, but he cut a few willow branches from the willow tree on the river bank and called him, "Muzi, don't worry about it. They can fill water very quickly!"

After finishing speaking, he twisted the willow branches in his hands together and began to weave flexibly left and right.

Su Mu didn't care about looking at the scenery, and stepped forward a few steps to watch Boss Che's handicrafts carefully.The willow twigs in his hands seemed to be alive, flying up and down, left and right, and within a short time, they were woven into a wicker basket with a diameter of one and a half meters.

"Do you really think they can catch fish by themselves? If they didn't have my skills, those wild boys wouldn't even be able to catch the fishbone!" The owner of the car looked at the boy scouts who were carrying water over there and started to pour water into the bucket of the second car. Irrigate and tie a few slender willow branches to the wicker basket with a smile on my face.

When the several large buckets of water on the two carriages were all filled, the boy scouts ran over and waited eagerly.

"Be honest, everyone, stay away from the water. It's still cold now, who dares to go down to the river to play in the water, no one has a share in eating fried fish!" Boss Che deliberately told them the precautions with a straight face. speak clearly.Then he walked to the river with a shallow willow basket with a somewhat strange appearance. After adjusting the angle several times, he lowered the willow basket into the water, and tied a few slender willow branches to the willow tree.

"Boss, when will we be able to catch fish?" A group of boy scouts were lying on the water's edge, and they could see small fish swimming in the crevices on the river bank, and they were already so hungry.

The owner of the car got into the carriage and whipped his whip, and shouted at them: "You all stay away from the shore, because the fish are scared away and no one will eat them. When we come to pull the water again, we can catch fish!"

This sentence obviously played a big role, and Kid King immediately led a group of boys and girls far away from the place where they got off the basket.

Sitting in the carriage, Su Mu felt that fishing was fun, and he became more playful, "Uncle Boss, how long will it take to plant ten acres of land? I also want to see how you catch fish."

"If you want to play, just forget about farming. Let the old black wife bring a few more women, and you can plant almost half a day." The boss uncle lit the filter cigarette that Su Mu gave him, feeling very happy I took two sips.

"Hey, I'd better help with some work before fishing." Su Mu pushed the frame of his glasses, thinking that I still have to find time to add ingredients to the water in the barrel.

This matter is much more important than catching fish. Whether the best vegetables can be successfully cultivated on ordinary land depends on the effect of the water.

"Sister-in-law Hei, bring some people to help grow vegetables!" Before reaching the ground, Su Mu, who was in high spirits, stood up and waved the coat in his hand to call for help.

Thanks to Mrs. Hei's good ears, she heard them from such a distance, and then called a few team members to join them.

"I've sorted out these rapeseeds. Spinach, water spinach, lettuce, cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes. Anyway, I have everything. Hei sister-in-law, you plan to plant these ten acres of land first." Su Mu specially marked Show them the little bag with the nice name.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Hei didn't even read what he wrote, and directly grabbed a handful of rapeseed in the bag and looked at it, "Oh, Muzi, do you still want to grow melons? That can't be mixed with vegetable fields, this thing Climbing vines need to be planted alone."

Su Mu suddenly broke out in sweat, thinking that others, like him, had to read the text to check their seats, but among so many people, he was the only co-author who didn't know the seeds!
"Hey sister-in-law, just watch the planting, and pick the most commonly eaten vegetables first. Let's try something new when the first crop grows!" He responded, but in his hand was a small bottle of space that had already been blended. Water was poured into buckets on the wagon.
