Chapter 8 8 Purple Clerodendrum

Chapter 8 8. Chinese Milk vetch

Song Sancheng frowned: "Are you planning to plant rice on dozens of acres of land?"

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so much Chinese milk vetch to increase fertilizer, dozens of kilograms? Chinese milk vetch only uses five or six kilograms of seeds per acre.

It's the end of February now, and the down jacket is still on. After March, the temperature will rise quickly. As long as there is no late spring cold, the temperature difference between day and night will not be so big, and most crops can be planted.

If you plant Chinese milk vetch, at least in late April and May, you can turn the soil again to plant other crops... It's okay, it won't delay planting other crops.

According to Song Sancheng's farming experience, May is the most suitable month for planting in rural areas. There is a late spring cold in March and April every year, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. The seeds will be frozen to death when they germinate, which is not suitable.

But he felt uncomfortable thinking about spending so much money and wasting time at the beginning.

Song Tan thought about it for a long time last night, and now he is not in a hurry: "Grow rice in the two fields at the bottom, and we will eat it ourselves."

The two fields add up to three or four acres, and the rice yield is high now, enough for the family to eat, and we can also give some to relatives and friends.

Song Tan will not consider more, growing rice is hard, so he will not grow more.

Raising fish in rice fields can also be tried.

"Grow astragalus in the other fields first, and I will grow vegetables when it gets warm."

Song Sancheng did not object this time: "Growing vegetables is good, and it is easy to sell. When the time comes, you can ride a tricycle to the street to sell it." The cost is low, the harvest is fast, and it is easier than growing rice.

Song Tan smiled: "Yes, I plan to do so too." No wonder. How many people are there in the town?

If you want to go, go to the city.

In fact, Song Tan thought about his work last night and had some other ideas-now people like to watch rural videos, relieve stress and calm down, but there are so many rural areas, how can you quickly catch the eye?

Either beautiful or unique

Her hometown, Yunqiao Village, is really ordinary.

In this case, we have to focus on "beauty".

The growth cycle of Astragalus is short, it is hardy and easy to grow, and the flowers are beautiful enough. When she shoots a video, the first shot will rely on the long Astragalus flower fields to attract traffic.

Otherwise, with so many crops and vegetables, when can it become a boutique?

…

At the end of February, there were few people in the agricultural supply store. Song Tan asked for 70 kilograms of Astragalus seeds. The boss was also very curious:

"How much land do you plant? Five kilograms of this original seed is enough for one mu of land, and ten kilograms of this medicinal seed. The price is the same, 10 yuan per kilogram."

Original seeds are original seeds that have not been processed.

Medicinal seeds are wrapped with insect and disease prevention drugs outside the seeds, and have good resistance.

Song Tan thought that he couldn't grow spiritual plants for a hundred years in vain, so he had to make a decisive choice:

"I want original seeds!"

In addition to Astragalus, other seeds must be bought, such as vegetable seeds, from the shortest growing cabbage to the peppers, eggplants, and cucumbers that need to be raised... All must be bought.

The seeds sold locally may not be as complete as those sold online, but for novices, they are the most adaptable. So Song Tan spent more than a thousand yuan in the end, and Song Sancheng's heart was twitching.

Song Tan is still asking!

"Do you have rice seeds? I want good taste."

The boss took a look and said: "Yes, this long-grained fragrant one has a very good taste. You can't buy it for ten yuan a catty. But the yield is low, only 1,800 catties per mu."

Song Tan couldn't help but sigh-technology is productivity!

In the world of cultivation, those spiritual grains that have not been hybridized and optimized, she has spent all her spiritual energy, but only 500 to 600 catties per mu.

"How much do you sell it for?"

The boss was not vague: "This seed is expensive, 80 per pound, and one mu of land needs two pounds."

Eight pounds of seeds for four mu of land, how expensive can it be? Thinking of the fragrant rice without impurities, Song Tan's mouth was about to drool:

"I want it!"

...

Two thousand yuan was spent on buying seeds. Song Sancheng took a puff of cigarette and said earnestly:

"Tan Tan, there is no rush to buy things slowly. It will be expensive to cultivate the land later. You have to prepare a lot of money."

The tiller needs to be equipped with plows of different depths. If you buy it, these will be equipped separately. They rent it, so they don't have this worry.

But their fields have not been cultivated for many years, and they have to hire people to clean up the weeds and trees. One person costs 150 yuan a day. Seven plots of land, ten people are needed to finish the work in one day, and another 2,000 yuan is gone.

If they don't hire people, it will waste time and affect their farming.

Then they have to burn a fire in the field before they can cultivate the land. After two days of drying, they can plant.

Even though it is machine-operated, the fields here can only be plowed for five mu a day at most. Fifteen mu will take three days and cost 1,500 yuan.

There are fertilizers and pesticides in the future... When Song Sancheng thought about the money spent, he felt that his daughter spent too much!

"You grow so many vegetables, do you need to build a greenhouse for seedling cultivation? Don't you say you need to hire people to dig the mountain? What are you going to do on the mountain?"

Song Tan was a little annoyed after the calculation.

Before the work started, the plan of tens of thousands of yuan was gone.

Song Tan made a prompt decision: "Dad, don't dig on the mountain for now. I plan to grow black fungus and white fungus on the mountain. I will use the oak trees on our mountain to grow fungus, so I don't have to clean up."

There are many oak trees in their local area, also called chestnut trees. This kind of wood is strong and can withstand fire. Now Song Tan's family uses this kind of wood for roasting fire.

Of course, it is also a good material for growing black fungus and white fungus.

But now they use fungus bags to grow directly, and this method has not appeared for many years. As a result, the prices of fungi from these tree species have also increased.

Song Tan vaguely remembered that when he was a child, his family had planted black fungus and white fungus in this way.

As a result, every household planted it, but the promised buyers did not come. In the end, they could only dry it and store it at home, and they ate it for several years.

Song Sancheng was confused.

—— Planting black fungus and white fungus?

Then you have to cut down the trees and deal with the trunks? Cut down the trunks of suitable thickness, and make holes on them one by one, and then fill them with fungus seeds...

Because it takes up space and has low yields, it has been gradually eliminated by fungus seed bags. But what Tan Tan said makes sense. Now we just want to be pure and pollution-free. It doesn’t matter whether there is pollution or not. Anyway, it tastes less than the tree seeds.

Song Sancheng sighed.

But he thought again-forget it, there are many oak trees planted anyway, and several hills are crowded, so it’s better to cut some.

It’s much better than spending money outside.

Spend it, spend it, and it will be out of sight if the money is spent cleanly!

He said sullenly, "I'll go ask the mushroom seller."

Song Tan felt uneasy when she saw her father like this - because she had bought a computer and some accessories online last night, and spent 8,000 to ensure the efficiency of post-editing.

But, the money was spent.

Song Tan struck while the iron was hot: "Dad, clean up the pigpen at the door, and raise three or four pigs this year."

The dishes are delicious, and the meat must keep up!

Song Sancheng was about to jump up: "You have so much work, do you want to tire me and your mother to death!"

Thinking about it, pork is quite expensive now, and he is actually quite tempted, so his face softened again:

"We can't build a pigpen at the door of our house now. The village said it affects the appearance, and the firewood shed must be cleaned up."

[Regarding cutting trees, there are many hills in the countryside, and every household has them. Everyone's tacit understanding is that if they are cut down, they must be planted, so there is no need to worry about cutting them all down. ]

[Regarding the cultivation of mushrooms in the forest, there is scientific guidance, which is stable. The basswood Tremella we eat now is grown in this way, but there is no basswood here, so we use local trees. ］
