Chapter 303 Ah!
First is the wood ear land.
This is the area that Xu Wenyan is most optimistic about, because there are already a lot of wood ear mushrooms growing there.
“In this fungus field, you can see that there is already mycelium on the wood at the edge, so you can put another piece of wood to the edge.
I have built the racks, you just need to maintain them."
Xu Wenyan selected a few people who looked young and strong to follow him. This shelter could be a little dangerous if one was not familiar with it.
There are many traps here, and there are also several datura plants in the back mountain.
Anyway, Xu Wenyan has already explained the precautions clearly. If they disobey and commit suicide, that will be their fate.
Walking along the fungus field, here is a pond, which is actually more like a swamp: "There are many reeds here. I will provide you with quilt covers in the fall. You can use these reeds to fill the inside."
After that is a large piece of sandy land in front of the house. Xu Wenyan will grow watermelons in the future, and the sandy land here is the main part.
If you want to grow sweet watermelons, the sandy soil here is the best choice.
Most commodities are classified into different grades, and the watermelons grown here are exclusively supplied to customers on the second floor of Qing'an Pavilion.
Chen Sanlin taught Zhan Laowu and the others how to fish, set the nets and mend the nets.
"I will ask Xiaohu to bring some food tomorrow, so we can have another pumpkin meal today." Xu Wenyan said, "There is also the earthen kiln here.
We will need a lot of coal in the future, both bamboo charcoal and wood charcoal will do, but you have to be careful not to pick only one piece of tree to cut down.”
It is okay to live in the water pond, but destroying the ecological environment here will not be worth it. Xu Wenyan and his friends lived here for a year before they could barely maintain peace for humans here.
Having said everything that needed to be said, Xu Wenyan and Chen Sanlin left the shelter.
After I got back, I had a meal and went straight to bed. I hadn’t stayed up late for a long time, so I didn’t feel very tired after staying up late for so long. However, my body’s hormones had been disrupted, so I should maintain a regular schedule as soon as possible.
Let Chen Sanlin send Zhou Rong to Qing'an Hall today. She will live in the hall from now on. If Xu Wenyan and others want to go there sometimes, they can bring her back with them.
After dinner, Chen Xingjie brought his men. Most of these people had experience, and this time the construction of the farm would be much faster.
"Wen Yan, everyone is here, take a look." Chen Xingjie walked to Xu Wenyan and gave him the list he had drawn up yesterday.
There were fifty people in total, neither too many nor too few, all young and strong men.
"The house I want to build this time is a bit big, and I need earth bricks. Please make some for me when you go back. I will charge you as much as you make."
The men below had joy on their faces. Thirty cents a day's work was better than the factory wages. Adding the money from making earthen bricks, they could earn about forty cents a day.
Most people here have never seen such high wages.
"Brother Xu, aren't you at a disadvantage by doing this?" Xu Wenyan knew the person who was speaking. It was Li Dezhu, a man who was honest and kind-hearted.
"Yes, there are so many of us, and each person has to pay at least thirty coins a day. Brother Xu, you have to pay a lot of money every day."
Everyone has received Xu Wenyan's kindness, so it would be too hot for them to handle such a large amount of money.
Xu Wenyan waved his hand: "Why should I suffer any loss? You all worked hard, and I don't provide meals here. Everyone does physical labor, so thirty cents a day is about right."
Although Xu Wenyan said this, everyone was grateful to him in their hearts. Since they got so much money, they had to work hard, and everyone was full of fighting spirit.
After arriving at the place, Xu Wenyan explained to them the main shape of the farm and marked clearly how much to dig and where to dig from. All they had to do was to put in the work.
With the reliable Xiaoman watching over here, Xu Wenyan went to record the melon seedlings. To be honest, he hasn't been to the melon field for two days as he has been busy these two days.
The watermelons are planted on more than one acre of land. They are growing well and the leaves are very healthy, except for a few that show signs of being eaten by insects.
Xu Wenyan recorded the plants that were least bitten by insects, and then carried out artificial pollination. Seeing the yellow flowers, Xu Wenyan thought of the bees in the shelter.
I forgot to tell Zhan Laowu about this when I left. I hope they are not dead.
Xu Wenyan collected honey a few months ago. The bees in it reproduced very quickly. It was time to build two more beehives, which would add flavor to the juice in the future.
Especially when the pears in the mountains are ripe, a dish of candied pears will definitely be a big hit.
Carefully putting away the record book, Xu Wenyan prepared to go to the factory again.
......
"Sister, are you sure it's here?" The two sisters Yuyin and Yubai squatted on the ground, seeming to be looking for something.
Yu Bai held a stick in his hand and carefully scratched the ground: "If I remember correctly, it ran to this side."
"What are you looking for?" Xiaohu passed by with tea in his hand.
"Ah! Found it."
As soon as Yuyin called out, she walked towards Xiaohu. Xiaohu was a little puzzled, wondering how she found it.
What did you find?
Following Yuyin's gaze, I saw a spider half the size of a palm lying on Xiaohu's shoe.
Ever since he was bitten by a centipede, he has developed a fear of these poisonous things.
"what!!!"
"Don't move!" Seeing Xiaohu trying to run away, Yuyin hurriedly grabbed his hand and said, "Don't move, I'll do it."
The little girl lowered her head, and while the big spider was still, she pressed her slender fingers on the spider's body and caught the spider in a deft way.
Then put it into a special bamboo basket.
Seeing this, Xiaohu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Yuyin who was smiling brightly beside him. At this moment, the girl with dark skin was a god in his heart!
"Miss Yu, you are so amazing." Xiaohu was stunned and looked at Yuyin with admiration.
"It's nothing. Everyone in our village can catch them, including my sister." Yu Bai also saw that Xiao Hu was a little afraid of this thing, so he patted her shoulder and said, "Brother Xiao Hu, if you encounter these bugs next time, call me and I will help you catch them."
After saying that, the two girls left. Xiaohu was slightly distracted as he watched Yuyin's leaving back.
That girl was so brave, unlike any other girl he had met.
"Hey, where is Hu Zima?" Xu Wenyan came down from the field and happened to run into Xiaohu. Following the direction of Xiaohu, Xu Wenyan also saw the two sisters leaving.
He understood something immediately, and he hugged Xiaohu's neck: "Hey, our Huzi, is there something wrong? Which of the two sisters do you like?"
Hearing Xu Wenyan say this, Xiaohu's face instantly turned red: "No, no, Brother Xu, don't talk nonsense."
"You don't want the two sisters, do you?" Xu Wenyan joked, raising an eyebrow at Xiaohu: "The young man has a bright future."
"Oh, Brother Xu, I really didn't." Xiaohu broke free from Xu Wenyan and left in a hurry.
Xu Wenyan was happy in his heart. He thought that both the sisters were suitable and their personalities seemed good for the time being.
Her appearance is also one of the best, worthy of Xiaohu.
