Chapter 110: The straw

A group of little kids were happily fishing for frogs. Lelang took a look and walked back. Shenmin's house has ten acres of paddy fields, half of which are his uncle's. They have always put the fields together and received them.

Except for leaving some rice to eat by yourself, the other rice was sold, and the two families would share the money they sold.

The yield per mu of rice planting in paddy fields is about one thousand kilograms per mu, which is only four thousand in two seasons a year. If there is a little more land, it is still OK to farm. What's more, the farming in Xiaoxi Village uses machinery to farm, which is convenient and labor-saving.

Labor can also go out to do some work, raise some chickens, ducks, and grow some fruits and vegetables at home. In fact, it is no worse than being exploited and oppressed by the flesh and blood factory in the city.

But not every place is like Xiaoxi Village. In a few villages not far from Xiaoxi Village, some have long stopped growing grain and replaced by wild rice, sweet potatoes, and corn. These things are sometimes sold at high yields and prices.

Rice is good, so many people change to plant these. Among them, sweet potatoes have the highest yield and the price of sweet potatoes is also very high. Now there are two pieces per catty, which is already very good.

You should know that if you manage sweet potatoes well, you can get two to three tons per acre, that is, two to three thousand to three thousand kilograms, or one season, or four to six tons in two seasons. No wonder fewer and fewer rice plantings are also easy to manage sweet potatoes.

, don't worry about bugs and typhoons. However, the staple food in the south is rice, and sweet potatoes are just auxiliary. People still prefer to grow rice, but the fields are getting smaller and smaller, and the conflict of values ​​is becoming more and more intense, resulting in the decline of farming now. How many young people are there now?

Some people who are farming may do it when they are old.

"Shenmin, do you have any rice seeds in your family?" Lelang asked Shenmin. He also wanted to open a field in the backyard to plant rice, and a piece of rice was also bloomed in the Yuruyi space, which was self-sufficient.

He always buys food and clothing. Moreover, the things he uses to water the spring water in Yuruyi space are extraordinary. He also wants to see what the rice he grows with the spring water in the space will be like.

"Why, do you want to plant too? Where do you want to plant? Then a few bags will be enough for you to eat for a year. What should you plant?" Shenmin said to Lelang, seeing that this kid is typically full and has nothing to do.

"I want to see if I have some land in the backyard. I asked you if you have it. I'm just chatting a lot of things if I ask you something."

"What kind of rice seeds are needed? If you want it, go to my place and pull it back. My uncle originally wanted to plant rice next season, but later I somehow wanted to change to plant sweet potatoes. The remaining seedlings were useless. You can go by yourself

Just pull it out." Lao Qi said.

"Look, Lao Qi is much better than you. Lao Qi is good. When I go to my house, I will give you some bayberry. You must know that the bayberry in my house is so big." Le Lang beat the two very stinky and fart.

Then, his two fingers bent in circles, looking the size of an egg.

"Just brag, you can apply for a world record so big." Shen Min glanced at it and said with a pout.

"You will know when the time comes." Lelang patted Lao Qi's shoulder and said.

At this time, a tractor drove from one side, and thick smoke came out of the tractor's head, which was simply polluting the environment. A middle-aged man was driving, and there were two women wearing hats sitting behind the bust.

The tractor stopped beside them, and the middle-aged man got out of the car and walked to Lelang and the others, and asked enthusiastically: "Young boy, are you selling straws?"

"How to calculate the selling?" Shenmin looked at the middle-aged man and asked. It was useless to keep straw in his house, so he simply sold it.

Straw is mainly used in rural areas to make mushrooms. In recent years, the price of mushrooms has been rising, and the price of straw has also risen. However, we use hay to make mushrooms. Middle-aged people now buy wet straw and go back to feed them.

Essential animals either go back and dry them by themselves. You should know that straw is still very popular in rural areas.

"One acre of one hundred and fifty." The middle-aged man thought for a while and said.

The price is already very high. In the past few years, acre of hay was just this price. It has risen to more than 200 in the past few years. That is the price of hay. Now even wet grass is sold at such a price.

I must buy it back and feed it to the animals, otherwise I won’t pay any high price.

"Well, yes, I have ten acres here, do you want them all?" Shenmin asked the middle-aged man.

"Yes, yes." The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly.

"Then you wait a moment, it'll be fine soon. You go down and tie the grass again." Shenmin said to him.

The middle-aged man responded and spoke to two women on the tractor. After a while, the rice harvester finished cutting his rice. The master who drove the rice put the rice on Lao Qi's car and then again

He went to cut other people's things. After filling the rice, Lelang followed Lao Qi to the warehouse to help dry and bag it, and then delivered the rice that Shenmin wanted to stay at his house.

Shenmin, on the other hand, would have to stay with middle-aged people and others, otherwise they would tie up grass here, and those who didn't know would misunderstand it, and it would be bad if something happened.

When they came to the drying warehouse, Lelang and the others looked at it and found that there were not many, but fortunately there were not many people, otherwise they would not know when it would be their turn.

It was Lelang and the others' turn to dry it, and Lelang and the others remembered that they had forgotten to bring the bags to fill the rice. Lelang was about to go back to Shenmin's house to get it, but found that Old Man Lin's son was walking over with a pile of sacks.

"Uncle Qingyuan." Le Lang and Lao Qi greeted Lin Qingyuan.

Lin Qingyuan nodded and asked, "It's the rice of Shenmin's family."

"Yes." Lelang nodded and responded.

"Please use this, I have told Xinming a long time ago that he has sold all these rice to me. After the packing is done, see how many they will keep, and you can carry it away."

Lelang and Lao Qi nodded after hearing this. After a while, Shenmin rushed over and said hello to Qingyuan. In the end, Shenmin left behind two thousand kilograms of rice, and Lin Qingyuan took away the rest.

You don’t have to keep so much, the next season will only be about three months, and you can’t finish it.

After getting busy, after having a meal at Shenmin's house, Lelang went back. When he got home, he began to open a paddy field about three minutes in the backyard, and then fertilized it with chicken, duck manure and sheep manure piled on the wall.

It leads the mountain spring into the fields.

He also spent a while to bloom about half an acre of paddy fields in Yuruyi's space. The land in the space was full of fertile black soil, so there was no need to fertilize it. I didn't see the banana fruit trees growing tall and big

, The fruit grows big and well.

After the paddy fields were bloomed, the seedlings were pulled out of the Laoqi family's fields and planted them. It took a few days to get everything done. After getting free, Lelang cut a plate of pineapple and lay leisurely.

On the rocking chair under the longan tree, I swayed and ate the pineapple slowly with a fork.

The wild pineapple in the mountains tastes different. Although it is not big, it is better than sweet and juicy.

The clouds and mist surrounding the land in Yuruyi's space rolled back a long circle, and about a mu of land was added to the space, which was incredible, but all of this was going on quietly, and Lelang was still

Know nothing.

The flowering period of the old longan tree on its head has passed, and small longans have emerged on the branches. Lelang did not expect that the old longan, which has never been bearer, has produced fruits rarely this year, and the fruits are quite strange.

.The other longan fruits have yellow shells, but these trees are white, slightly yellow white, which is very strange. However, Lelang is no longer surprised by these things. What's more than fists.

The big lychees and peaches the size of pigeon eggs are strange.

Lelang put the pineapple aside again, chewed it comfortably, feeling the unique flavor of the wild pineapple in the mountains, swallowing slowly, thinking about the phone in his pocket.

"Hey." Lelang looked at it and it was a strange number.

"Brother Lang, it's me, Ren Shaoyun, do you still remember?"

"Oh, oh, Ren Shaoyun? Oh, Ren Shaoyun, of course I remember it. Why do you want to come and play?" Le Lang's memory has never been very good, and he almost remembered it.

"Yes, we have decided to go to your place to play tomorrow. There are more than twenty people. I may disturb you at that time. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, you guys just come, it's nothing anyway."

"Then thank you, you're busy with yours, that's it."

Lelang looked at the "beep" phone call and smiled helplessly. Are these kids so nonsense?
