Chapter 108 Soaking Rice Seeds Again
Chapter 108 Soaking Rice Seeds Again
Xia Sicheng was a scholar, eloquent, and he also took notes of his observations. He will tell the story.
Xia Sicheng cleared his throat and then repeated what Zheng Sisi had said to him and what he saw Zheng Sisi do.
After hearing this, everyone nodded in sudden realization.
This time, Zheng Sisi handed over the task of soaking the rice seeds to Uncle Li, because he planned to train Uncle Li to manage the rice planting on various farms and serve as a rice planting consultant in the future.
Uncle Li received the important task and carried it out meticulously according to the steps.
Until he completed all the steps, moved the rice seeds to the side room and covered them with a quilt, and every step was correct, Zheng Sisi praised him greatly.
"Uncle Li is a fast learner and a great guy. I'll give you a bonus when the rice planting is successful."
Uncle Li didn't know what the bonus was and he didn't expect it. All he wanted now was to stop wandering and not go hungry. These were what the girl could give him, so he had to study hard.
Of course, Uncle Li did not expect that he would later have rich experience in rice planting. He was flattered wherever he went. Many wealthy families offered high prices to recruit him, but he rejected them all. He was only loyal to that girl.
This is something.
Uncle Li said honestly: "Thank you, young lady!"
Zheng Sisi said, "Uncle Li, from now on, come to Sunzhuangtou every day to check the temperature of the seeds and soak them in cold water."
Uncle Li: "Don't worry, girl. I will do it well."
When I returned to the yard, the work of purchasing chicken and duck eggs was almost over, and only a few people were still in line.
After collecting the eggs from the last few people, everyone counted them and found that the result was quite good. There were more than 2,000 chicken eggs and more than 1,000 duck eggs.
The reason there are so many is that this place used to be an imperial farm, so the treatment was better and there was surplus food. Other places wouldn't have so many.
I believe that they will go back in the future and raise more chickens and ducks, which will provide a steady supply. Chicken and duck feces can also be used as fertilizer, and chickens and ducks can also catch insects and prevent pests, which is an important part of the ecological cycle.
Why not kill two birds with one stone?
I just don't know if the materials bought by the third prince and his men are enough.
It was already noon, and the Third Prince and his companions had not returned yet.
Aunt Liu and her people had already prepared the food, and Zheng Sisi didn't wait for them and arranged to eat first.
After lunch, they took a short nap. The Third Prince and others had not returned yet, so Zheng Sisi arranged for several guards to dig up yellow mud, and especially emphasized that it must be yellow mud.
A few people responded and went out with baskets to look for yellow mud.
Not long after lunch, Sun Zhuangtou came again, this time with two people who were not from the village.
Sun Zhuangtou: "Boss, these are the people I sent to find to repair the house. These two brothers are the best at repairing houses in this area. Their surname is Jin."
Zheng Sisi: "Hello, Master Jin!"
Boss Jin: "Hello, Boss. I heard from Village Chief Sun that Boss wants to build a pig farm."
Zheng Sisi: "Yes, the pig farm I built is a little different, you can take a look first."
Zheng Sisi took out a blueprint from her sleeve pocket and spread it out. Actually, she took it out from the space.
Dongzhi brought up a few cups of tea and then went down again.
Zheng Sisi waited for them to look for a while before asking, "Master Jin, if you don't understand anything, you can tell me."
Boss Jin frowned and said, "We have been repairing houses for more than 20 years, and we have never seen a house like this. But we can give it a try."
Zheng Sisi said, "Okay, but they're all made of blue bricks. You guys estimate how many you'll need and when to start construction."
Boss Jin said, "Boss, can I go to the scene to take a look?"
Zheng Sisi: "Sure! Let's go now."
Then he said to Sun Zhuangtou: "Sun Zhuangtou, arrange a few people to take them there. I also need to check the scene and find a place with water."
Sun Zhuangtou agreed, and then took a few people to the small hillside.
