Pastoral Trifles: The Poor Girl Turns Over

Chapter 149 The Pond Trifle 2
"Don't dare! I will do my best!" Song Chengxun said so, how could Cen Qi dare to underestimate Cheng Huan, so he hurriedly agreed.

"Thank you!" Cheng Huan agreed, chatted a little more, and asked Song Chengxun to send a carriage to take him back to the village.

Cen Qi is not an idler, after lunch at Cheng's house, Cheng Huan asked him to rest for a while and go to see it again in the evening, but Cen Qi couldn't stay idle, and took the initiative to go to the pond to have a look, so as to come up with a suitable plan as soon as possible.

The two came to the pond under the scorching sun.

There is still water in the pond, but it is very shallow, it is just accumulated from the rain, but because of the poor water quality, the bottom of the water is still not visible.

Cen Qi tested the depth with a long wooden stick. It was about one meter. He tried to insert it hard. The upper layer was moderately soft mud, about two feet high. After that, he could no longer penetrate. .

Only then did he pull out the stick and carefully observe the marks left on the stick.

Obviously, apart from the water at the top, there is about a foot and a half of black silt, followed by a piece of soft red soil, and further down...

It should be hard soil, and the perennial water shortage has already dried up under the pond and turned into ordinary land.

If you want to dig in such a situation, it is tantamount to digging a new pond. Looking at the pond that is about two acres in size, Cen Qi frowned, his face a little heavy.

"Cheng Huan, the situation is not very good. If you want to fix this pond, I'm afraid it will take some time and money!"

"Mr. Cen, please explain in detail!" Cheng Huan didn't understand this, and he had never done it before. Seeing Cen Qi's serious face, his heart sank.

"The area of ​​this pond is not too big but not too small. You can see that there is only such a little water on the top. The silt inside needs to be cleaned up, and the soil must also be cleaned up. This is the first step, and the water quality will be improved later. Look at this If fish are raised in the water inside, they will die if they are thrown into it. It will take a lot of manpower and financial resources to do these things, and Hongtu Village is in a mountain nest surrounded by continuous cultivated land. Where will the soil be put after it is removed? , How to transport it away is also a trouble."

Cheng Huan looked at the pond, she had thought that it would be difficult, but because she didn't understand anything, now after hearing Cen Qi's explanation, she realized that everything she thought was too simple.

Now that everyone is busy farming, not to mention money, manpower has become a problem, that is to say, even if she gave twice the usual amount of money, she might not be able to find anyone to help.

After all, no one would delay their one-year harvest for this small amount of money.

"Mr. Cen, how will we deal with these things in Shengtian?" Cheng Huan humbly asked for advice, and now he can only rely on Cen Qi.

Cen Qi glanced at the pond again, and then said: "Shengtian is close to the sea, and the soil for digging ponds usually goes into the sea, so it is not a problem to go, and there are many people from outside in Shengtian City, and here most of them are local farmers, who have their own jobs. , Many people in Shengtian can't find a job!"

Cheng Huan looked at the pond silently. He originally regarded the pond as his first step to make a fortune, but now something went wrong before he took the first step. Cheng Huan's heart sank suddenly, with a sour uncomfortable.

But now there is no way back.

If you look for someone from the town, the cost will be doubled immediately, and it is impossible for you to bear it.

It seems that this matter has to be let go.
