As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a big boy turning around from the path behind him. He had a shiny black round head and a tall and thin body. He was wiping his tears with his sleeves, feeling aggrieved, whimpering, and crying...
"Pfft!" Ulan couldn't hold back, and went to take the basket in his hand with a smile: "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Look at our Qiaoqiao's cat face, it's ugly when we cry!"
Some people felt distressed, and Song Qiao cried even louder.
Song Tan refused to take the blame: "Nonsense, I have sown all the seeds, why didn't I plant the land properly? Didn't I leave a handful for you to plant slowly?"
Then he explained to Wu Lan in a low voice: The seeds of milkvetch can be sown directly into the soil, but Qiao Qiao only knows how to grow corn, so he had to sow them one by one.
In the end, Song Tan sprinkled all the seeds, leaving only a palm-sized area for him, and a handful of them killed thirty or fifty seeds, allowing Qiao Qiao to sow them one by one...
Song Qiao cried so miserably: "But you...but you! If you scatter seeds randomly, no corn will grow in the future! I..."
He rubs his left and right sleeves on his face carelessly, and the more he talks, the more sad he becomes: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.. Mom, my sister is hiccup... Just give me some seeds. I plant them very seriously... There will be too little corn by then. Eat it."
Not full, woo woo…”
He stared at Song Tan with tears in his eyes: "In the future...I won't be able to support my sister anymore..."
Ouch, you silly boy!
Song Tan felt so soft-hearted all of a sudden - no wonder Qiao Qiao cried so miserably, probably because she remembered what she said about farming to support herself at the beginning!
As a result, the seeds were scattered everywhere. He must have felt that there was not enough corn to eat, so he felt sad and aggrieved.
Sure enough, Wulan also glared at her and quickly comforted her: "It's okay, Qiaoqiao, mom knows how to farm, and mom will support you!"
Song Qiao stopped crying, hesitated for a long time, and started twitching again: "Well, then I'll raise my sister too."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Tan hugged his shoulders: "Good brother! Good Qiaoqiao! Sister is so touched - come on, stop crying, wipe your face and let's watch Peppa Pig!"
"I can watch two episodes today!"
Finally, the pink pig ended up crying.
…
Early March.
The third day of the second lunar month is the Waking of Insects.
All things begin, Cordyceps revives.
Song Tan has been back for half a month.
In the past half month, Song Sancheng and the villagers have almost tidied up the hillside, and a layer of green has appeared in the fields——
It was the milkvetch that had just sprouted and grown. The soft green emerged from the brown soil, trembling, as if it would break when the wind blew.
The villagers looked at it and marveled: "Nowadays, the seeds are not afraid of freezing! Look at this, in previous years we only dared to sow seeds in March, and now they have sprouted in March."
The continuous ten or twenty acres of land are all covered with this kind of fluffy green. The fields are scattered high and low. At a glance, you can't help but feel happy.
Everyone in the village couldn't help but stop and take a second look when they passed by.
This is the saying "the color of grass looks far away but is not there up close".
The old man in the village led the old cow from the side and couldn't help but ask: "Tantan, when this milkvetch grows, can I take the cow to the field and let it go?"
Milkvetch is nutritious and tender to eat, and is cute for cattle and sheep to eat! When cattle were needed to pull paddy fields, they had to be fed once a year. Later, they stopped farming and the cattle got old.
No one is growing milkvetch either.
Song Tan quickly agreed: "Okay, Grandpa Li! When the time comes, you can bring the cattle over to the two fields at the bottom and put them in, and you can eat whatever you want!"
Milkvetch grows quickly. If you start eating the green leaves, you can eat them for a month!
Old Man Li thought for a while: "Are you just going to plant these two fields this year? How about I bring cattle to plow the fields for you?"
Oxen plowing is definitely not as good as a cultivator, and only five or six acres of land can be plowed in one day. But here in Songtan, the land is only more than three acres and less than four acres!
Otherwise, Old Man Li would be reluctant to part with it: "But my cow is old and I have to plow slowly. You can't rush me."
"I'll plow it for you in two days, okay?"
Song Tan laughed: "Okay! That's great! Grandpa Li, I won't mention the money anymore. When the time comes, I will beat the rice and give you fifty kilograms!"
The old man doesn't eat much, and fifty pounds is enough for a baby for half a year.
Old Man Li was extremely happy!
Nowadays, when young people come back, they always have money at their fingertips. This doesn’t mean that you can’t pay people for work, but helping neighbors sometimes seems very awkward.
It's not that young people don't want to help the villagers more, but they don't know how.
They, a group of old people who are used to talking about village customs, always feel uncomfortable.
It's still as good as Tantan.
Besides, the rice you grew yourself! How fragrant it is!
Do the math, he hasn’t had anything to eat in ten or twenty years...
I didn’t expect to be able to eat it again after the end of the year.
The old cow also seemed to notice his joy, and also gave a long "moo". Old Man Li also patted its head: "Let's go home! There will be delicious food in a while!"
…
Song Tan is also thinking:
Milkvetch, green leaves and purple flowers, old cow...
What a beautiful material!
Song Tan had already thought about it, but now that there are more cows, it will look more lifelike.
As for whether I can bring the goods myself after it becomes popular - of course I can!
Why is she doing this if she can't bring the goods?
She can guarantee that no one will be able to resist coming back after eating there once.
I have been farming at Yinyuefeng in the back mountain for hundreds of years, killing insects and weeds to improve the taste. I have learned that method properly!
I don’t believe there can be no market for vegetables grown in Reiki!
Moreover, many of the vegetables she plans to grow are storable, and black fungus and white fungus are suitable for online sales.
Nowadays, logistics has developed to the point that in most cities, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can get it delivered the next day, which is enough to meet the needs of online shopping.
Those that are not shelf-stable can be digested locally once they become famous.
She farms, firstly to satisfy her appetite, and secondly to make money.
As for how much she can earn, as long as she can repay her capital, she has no requirements.
With this calculation in mind, there is still a lot to prepare for next.
In the past few days, she has to quickly prepare the filming tools, and she also has to pick up her editing skills. Whether she can be prosperous by then depends on this!
After thinking about it, Song Tan stood at the edge of the field, moving his fingers slightly, and quietly activating the strands of spiritual energy...
The white mist that is invisible to the naked eye slowly blends into the fields, and the green of the milkvetch seems to have reached a new level.
As the breeze blows, the hazy green becomes more intense at this moment.
The roots of milkvetch rapidly extract nutrients from the ground, and the pale yellow rhizobia attached to the roots feed back to the field.
Such is the life of nature.
It goes round and round, the rhythm is cyclical.
There is still one today.
Hiring people to plow fields is very expensive. Nowadays, rural areas are aging seriously. Tantan may find more people from the village to do many of the jobs that require machines.
Don’t just calculate economic accounts, as that will definitely result in losses. But if there is harmony between people and between people and nature, we will never lose money.
Of course, there are also old people who are unreasonable, and Tantan will definitely not suffer.
Also, it’s time to eat wild vegetables after waking up from the stings... What do you like to eat?
