Rebirth Space Farming

Chapter 170 Farm Crops

"Brother-in-law, how dare we," said the person in charge of the dairy farm who had pissed off Zhuo Feng to death a while ago.The fodder for the dairy farm is purchased from NMG.

In order to let the daughter-in-law of the family give birth to a boy, he was caught by the superbirth brigade in the village and fined some money, so he took the money away.

He didn't have enough money, and couldn't find cheap fodder for a while, so he let the cattle and sheep out of the dairy farm indiscriminately, regardless of the complaints from the surrounding residents and Zhuo Feng and the others.

Of course, he didn't dare to tell Huang Tengchong about this in private.There was not enough fodder, so the cattle and sheep were driven out.When questioned, he was even more stubborn, and refused to admit that he was greedy for fodder money.

"If you weren't Maxim's brother, I'd be the first to fire you," said the man who taught me, Huang Tengchong, with his hair combed to a seven-point cut and covered with pomade, and he looked like a dog. of.

This person sounded familiar, he was the dog-legged translator that Xiaoxian met in Baijia Ancient Town a few years ago.
He is the owner of this dairy farm and also the general manager of a well-known breeding company in BJ.

"Brother-in-law, look at what you said. You said that my sister, a big girl, has been with you for two years regardless of her status. You should take care of me for her sake." The person in charge of the dairy farm salivated. smile.

He used to be a pig farmer in his hometown, and his family was very poor. Thanks to the raising of a beautiful girl, Huang Tengchong who followed after he came to BJ for a few years.He came and went, relying on nepotism, and became the person in charge of this dairy farm.

But I didn't know that something happened when I ate it. I invited a veterinarian to come over to see it. They only said that the forage had been eaten and it would take a while to raise the milk. The milk produced during this period cannot be sold.

"Idiot, you can eat whatever you want in the spring, especially in the wild, and you don't hire someone to watch it. Haven't you heard that cattle and sheep will "run green"?" , In spring, grazing cattle and sheep eat grass. Animals like to bite two bites of grass and then run forward to eat the front ones, and then bite two more grasses and then eat the front ones. Fat)
Huang Tengchong graduated from technical secondary school, learned fluent English, and after setting up a breeding farm, he also took some supplementary lessons in animal husbandry. He is considered a little bit of an expert.

"How can we know? When we raised pigs, we only knew that pigs would eat when they ate and fell asleep. How could they run around?" The person in charge thought that they all run on four legs. Why is it so troublesome to raise them?

"It's really a food without a brain. The milk of this batch of sick cows continues to produce milk. Find someone to give them more antibiotics. As for the batch of sheep, they are all skinny, and they are all slaughtered. I will talk about it in BJ City There are several hot pot restaurants, hot pot has been very popular in the city for the past few years, and then they will say that our mutton is imported from Inner Mongolia, you understand?" Qifentou really has a bit of economic sense, and the person in charge of the dairy farm Nod straight.

"But brother-in-law, it's not good to feed too much cow. The veterinarian said it when he came last time. He said that the stuff will come out with the milk. When the milk is sent out, it's not good for people to drink it. "The person in charge thought, he used to give the pigs some rotten pig food at most, but he didn't dare to give the pigs medicine.

"What's the big deal? Those things are called antibiotics. If you use too much of them, your immune system will be disturbed, and your disease resistance will be poor. You won't be able to kill people. Also, where did the cattle and sheep eat grass?" A large amount of milk was followed by diarrhea and vomiting. There is no reason for it, but it must be caused by nearby residents.

Damn country bumpkins, I kindly responded to the district government's call and built the milk farm in this ghostly place where the cost of driving and transportation is high, creating jobs for them. a mouthful.If they didn't clean up, they really thought that his "Huang's breeding" was easy to mess with.

"The problematic cattle and sheep were all kept on the one-kilometer piece of wasteland, which had been vacant for decades. Before I put them out, people looked at them. The forage is growing well. It was moved a month ago. A young couple came over and had a fight over fodder, but I drove them away," the person in charge hurriedly reported.

"I've checked to see if that couple lived in such a ghostly place at such a young age. I suspect that they tampered with the grass." Huang Tengchong lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth.

"Probably not. It seems that they are all educated, and they are said to be college students." The person in charge has not graduated from elementary school, and he is still in awe when he sees those who can read big characters.

"What's so great about studying? I just finished technical secondary school, and I'm not worth over [-] million. Let me tell you, if a person wants to prosper, he has to rely on his brain and luck. If you don’t know the reason, let’s forget it? It’s really a pig’s head. I’ll get a batch of herbicide in a few days, and you can secretly spray it around, so that they can’t even grow a hair. It’s a loss to me. I bought a batch of cattle and sheep, so don't even think about it and settle it like this," Qi Fen exhaled a smoke ring, feeling very comfortable.

"Brother-in-law, those sheep are gone, what should I do in the future?" The person in charge is not feeling sorry for those sheep, but worried about his fodder money. If there are fewer sheep, wouldn't it mean that money is also less.

"I will still be short of lambs, I will send you a batch after a while, remember this time, don't raise any problems, or I will castrate you like a sheep," Huang Tengchong finished the cigarette in one gulp , pinched in the forage.

In the farm one kilometer away, Zhuo Feng has been lying on the fence of the farm for the past few days, carefully observing the movement of the dairy farm.

The grass that had not been gnawed for more than half a month turned green again and grew several centimeters taller. Feng Xing piled up the manure left by the cattle and sheep after gnawing on the grass, and waited for it to be composted as farm manure.

"Ah Feng, you are still watching. The cows and sheep have eaten grass and got sick. It is the president's memory. If the dairy farm releases the cows and sheep next time, they will not dare to run this way again. Feng Xing wore a wide-brimmed straw hat, held a fence rake in his hand, and piled up all the dry grass and fallen leaves accumulated in previous years.

"I found that our little Xian is very clever," Zhuo Feng also put on his sleeves, turned up the soil, and when he saw a plant in the soil, he said to himself.

"Yeah, I actually thought of using Adiantum to drive cattle and sheep." Fengxing said that Adiantum is a perennial evergreen herb that is common all over the country. Its light green leaves look similar to ginkgo leaves. , only a few tens of centimeters tall, and in the [-] mu of land of Bai Juyi's farm, many clusters grew in the shade.

It is this humble herb that causes cattle and sheep to vomit and diarrhea. Xiaoxian said that when he was in the village, the sheep in the village ate Adiantum by mistake and vomited and vomited.

After the cattle and sheep were driven away that day, the three of them transplanted all the maidenhair ferns in the corner to the places where the cattle and sheep like to eat. Sure enough, within a few days, the dairy farm had diarrhea and vomiting. After that, the dairy farm didn't dare to graze here anymore.It has been quiet these few days, and it seems that there will be no more troubles in the future.

"Well, you have knowledge in everything you do. You know how to plant some commercial crops, but you don't understand the function of this kind of humble weeds. Do as the Romans do. If we really want to live here for a long time, we need more. Pick up here The land is almost ready, we will go to the city in the afternoon to look around and pick some crops to come back.” After all, Fengxing is the man of the family, without the fantasy of women, he pays attention to the land and lives in a steady stream.

The renovation of the farm cost a lot of money. Now that the water, electricity and heating of the house have been overhauled, and the land has been turned over, it is time to think about what to plant.

In the past few days after coming here, Fengxing and Zhuo Feng also wandered around, and their plan to plant some commonly used and easy-to-grow crops also fell through.

In this area of ​​Yanqing, the residents live scattered, and the things grown are also scattered. There are a lot of vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, etc., and these things can’t be sold. Shipping costs.

Fengxing also thought about planting some common fruits in the north, such as dates, persimmons, and apples, but these would require labor and technology, and the young couple did not have the capital for a while. Take a look at the seed station and choose some suitable ones.

On the way to the seed station, Zhuo Feng saw a stall selling sweet potatoes by the side of the road. At lunch, she just picked a few bites at random. After a short ride, she also felt hungry, so she thought about buying a baked sweet potato to fill her stomach.

A cart asked about the price, and a baked sweet potato weighing two or three was actually sold for two yuan, which is considered a high price, Zhuo Feng clicked his tongue.

The sweet potato seller's grandma laughed: "Miss, don't underestimate these sweet potatoes. I grow them all by myself and put them in a special cellar for the winter. They are sweeter than red Fuji apples."

After Zhuo Feng listened, he peeled off the scorched sweet potato skin.

Don't look at the ugly skin, the sweet potato is roasted out of shape, but you can put a bite into your mouth, the chestnut yellow sweet potato flesh is fragrant and sweet, like drinking the best honey, it makes people sweet from head to toe .

"It's delicious, husband, you can have a bite too," Feng Xing casually took a bite. When he was in BJ City, those hawker stalls couldn't stop randomly, and eating a baked sweet potato became a luxury.

"It's delicious. If the market is in the morning, the price of sweet potatoes will be more expensive." Before moving to the farm, Feng Xing had bought sweet potatoes at the vegetable market a few times, so he knew the price.

"Well, it's quite expensive." Zhuo Feng ate half of the meal, and suddenly had an idea, "My husband, I thought of it, let's go buy sweet potato seeds. Go back and buy some sweet potatoes with the mother-in-law who sells sweet potatoes, and then go to the market Ask here."

Feng Xing thought about it, and it worked out. Planting sweet potatoes in the first year is more practical, saving both fertility and labor. The couple will ask some people to help when the sweet potatoes are harvested.There are only a few acres of fields in the farm, and the remaining ten acres of grass are very thick, and it will take some time to sort them out.

Just do what you say, Zhuo Feng is eating sweet potatoes, but got a good idea to grow sweet potatoes.On this trip, the couple bought several catties of sweet potato seedlings of different varieties, and then waited to plant the sweet potatoes.
