Back to seven or seven kinds of fields to raise children

Even if it costs a little money, it's worth it.

In late May, the sticks have grown quite tall, and it's time to start weeding the ginseng field.

As for Xu Shiyan, he also began to prepare for fermented bean cake top dressing.

Yu Shouguang allocated three young men to Xu Shiyan, and drew out a [-]-foot-frozen club as an experimental field.

He also promised to keep another [-] feet of new planting this autumn, all of which will be used to test the effect of bean cake fertilizer.

After Xu Shiyan accepted the task, he led his men to crush the bean cakes.

The bean cakes of these days are all machine-pressed into a big disc, and it is not easy to smash them.

The bean cakes should be steamed in a pot for a period of time, until the bean cakes are softened by the steam, and then chopped with a guillotine.

Those who make the base fertilizer soak the bean cakes, add pesticides, and pile them up in a spare room to ferment.

After the fermentation reaches a certain level, take it out to dry in the sun, dry it and put it away, and use it when planting ginseng in autumn.

The bean cake water for topdressing can be fermented in a large tank or pond, but the easiest way is to dig a deep pit in the horseway, and then add water and bean cake powder to fertilize.

The advantage of this is that it is close to the ginseng field and it is convenient to fertilize.

The disadvantage is that there is no agricultural plastic film these days, so there must be yellow mud in the temporary pits, and the bean cake water is mixed with yellow mud water.

But it’s okay, anyway, it’s all going to be poured into the ground, so the yellow muddy water is just yellow muddy water.

In this way, Xu Shiyan led the people, first crushed the bean cakes, and then went to the ginseng field, dug a few holes in the [-]-foot pond and horse trail, and began to fertilize.

"Hey? Why do I feel that the temperature has been a little low these two days?"

On the evening of May 24th, after finishing work, Xu Shiyan and three other young men walked outside the venue together. Xu Shiyan suddenly felt that something was wrong.

It's almost June, and it's going to be summer soon. Why is the temperature so low in the evening?

"But really, if you don't tell me, I haven't noticed yet, it's chilly.

This year's bad weather is terrible enough. It didn't rain in the spring, and it rained again a few days ago. The ground temperature can't rise, and the crops don't know what they can grow. "

The people together raised their hands and rubbed their arms, and quickly put on their coats.

"I feel cold, it's not a good thing, I'm afraid of late frost."

Xu Shiyan vaguely remembered that it seemed that in the past seven or eight years, in late May and early June, late frosts fell continuously in Daying, Songjiang, Xinglong, Donggang, Quanyang, Beigang and other areas, and the affected area was more than 4 mu.

At that time, Xu Shiyan was working in the Daan Coal Mine. He listened to the radio broadcast by you. He couldn't remember the exact time.

But Xu Shiyan knew one thing, the No. [-] bridge is the frost road, and as long as there is frost, he must go here.

Now all the sticks have sprouted quite tall. If there is a late frost and the sticks are frozen to death, the consequences will be very serious.

"Let's go, take the car home." Xu Shiyan was a little anxious when he thought of this.

Hurry out of the venue, find the carriage of the brigade, get on the carriage with everyone and return to Donggang.

After getting off the carriage, Xu Shiyan didn't even go home, and went straight to Yu Shouguang's house. "Secretary Yu, I have something to tell you."

Chapter 128

"Xiao Xu, you just came back from the mountain? Why, something went wrong with the fermenting of bean cakes?"

When Yu Shouguang saw Xu Shiyan's body was covered in dirt, he knew that he had just left work and came here before he even came home, so he couldn't help feeling a little strange.

"Uncle, it's not about bean cakes.

It's because the temperature is low these days, why do I feel that there should be night cream?

The No. [-] bridge is frost road. If there is late frost here, what will happen to the sticks on the mountain? "

Xu Shiyan was straightforward and expressed his worries.

When Yu Shouguang heard this, his expression turned serious, and he could feel the low temperature in the past two days.

But he really didn't think about the late frost, because it had been raining a while ago, but it has just cleared up these few days, and the temperature is a little lower, which is normal.

"Xiao Xu, this is not a joke, are you sure?"

The second brigade has more than 1 feet of sticks, all of which are at the end of the No. [-] bridge. If there is a late frost, all the stick seedlings will be frozen to death, and the loss will be too serious.

"Uncle, I said this myself, you definitely don't believe it.

If it doesn't work, Uncle ask some old people on our team to ask. "

Xu Shiyan knew that since he was young, it was normal for people to ignore what he said.

But he has to say that this matter is related to the income of a brigade or even a commune this autumn. If it is not fully understood, it will be hard for conscience.

"Yes, yes, let's go, let's go to the team headquarters."

When Yu Shouguang heard this, he nodded heavily, followed Xu Shiyan and went out to the team headquarters.

When he arrived at the team headquarters, Yu Shouguang turned on the loudspeaker and started shouting.

Call the other cadres of the Second Brigade, several veteran households, and technicians to discuss matters together.

When everyone arrived at the team headquarters, upon hearing Xu Shiyan's deduction, the technician jumped up before anyone else could speak.

"Impossible, when is it still frosty?

This was affected by the previous rain. We are too close to Changbai Mountain, and the temperature is already low. "

The technician was a worker, peasant, and soldier college student who was studying at the Agricultural University and was assigned to do an internship a while ago. He was a bit cultured and quite proud.

Yu Shouguang gave Xu Shiyan the matter of bean cake retting and fertilization, and also assigned him the matter of the experimental field, the technician was a little unhappy.

He felt that Xu Shiyan had robbed him of his errand, and he was a little emotional towards Xu Shiyan, so he jumped out to object before anyone else could speak.

On the other hand, those old farmers murmured in a low voice for a long time, but no one expressed their opinion hastily.

Seeing the expressions of those old people, Yu Shouguang knew that something was wrong, "Uncle Zhang, just look at it, what should we do about this?"

The man Yu Shouguang called Uncle Zhang is seventy years old this year, with gray hair, but in good spirits.

The old man stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, "I remember when I was young, maybe in my twenties.

One year around this time, the mallet seedlings came out of the ground and grew quite tall. When a frost came, they all froze to death.

Alas, at that time, they were all owned by our own family, and there were several large households. Because of this frost, they lost everything. "

The mallet seedlings will rot if they are frozen to death, and the germs will infect downwards, and even the mallets underneath will rot.

In order to reduce the loss, once the mallet seedlings are damaged by freezing, they have to hurry up to produce ginseng.

But at this time, the mallet is not starched, the scale is not weighed at all, and the goods are not produced. It is useless.

When Yu Shouguang heard this, his expression turned ugly, "Uncle, what do you say about this? Can it be prevented?"

Yu Shouguang is in his forties this year, has never experienced such a thing, and has no idea, so he hurriedly asked.

Mr. Zhang sighed and shook his head.

"It's not easy to fix, if it's a big field, you can try using smoke.

Ours is ginseng ground. The pool skewers are covered with sticks, boards and thatch. If there is a fire, even the sticks will be burned. "

Experienced old farmers will look at Shuangtou.

Before the frost comes, pile some branches and dry grass around the whole field, and when the first frost arrives, light it around.

By raising the temperature with pyrotechnic gas, crops can be prevented from being killed by frost.

But that is a big field, relatively open and easy to operate.What's the deal with this ginseng?

The pond strings are covered with thatch and thatch, if one is not done well, the fire will jump up to the pool strings, don’t resist frost, let’s set fire to the camp.

When Yu Shouguang heard this, his heart turned cold. How can this be done? "Xiao Xu, do you have any tricks?"

Yu Shouguang turned his head and looked at Xu Shiyan with hopeful eyes.

Xu Shiyan also shook his head, "Secretary, this matter is not easy to deal with. The key is that we can't find something suitable."

"What is it?" Yu Shouguang and the old men asked together.

"Cao Xiang, use this thing to stick it on the side of the pool, and arrange for people to wait.

Seeing that the head of frost has arrived, it is lit immediately, and the frost will not fall after the smoke is smoked. "

Xu Shiyan sighed as he spoke, they all did this in their previous life, but what is going on now?

A few years ago, the feudal superstition was broken, and burning incense and paper was not allowed. Where can I find grass incense?

Sure enough, when Yu Shouguang and the others heard this, they all shook their heads and sighed.

These things are really hard to find nowadays, the factories that produce burning paper and grass incense are all yellow, where can I buy them?

"What's the matter? Are we really just watching?"

Yu Shouguang was in a hurry, more than 1 feet of sticks, not to mention being beaten by Shuang, even if the damage was one or two hundred feet, it would be a loss of tens of thousands, who can bear it?

"Hmph, I'm just talking nonsense, I don't believe there can be frost. What kind of grass fragrance is used? I've never heard of such a method."

On the other side, the technician rolled his eyes and hummed.

Xu Shiyan pondered for a moment, "Secretary Yu, if it doesn't work, we can only take a risk.

At this time, the vegetation on the mountain is lush and thick, and when a fire is ignited, it only emits smoke.

Let's arrange more people to watch it, as long as it doesn't get out of hand. "

What should I do then?You can't really sit here, can you?

Waiting for the frost to freeze the club to death, and the whole brigade will cry at home?

"Secretary, I think what Xiao Xu said is reasonable, we can't just wait, if it's really frosty, there's no place to cry.

Hurry up and arrange people to go up the mountain, and prepare as much as possible while it's still not too dark. "

The captains of several teams also agreed with Xu Shiyan's words.

This thing is related to the livelihood of more than 300 households for three years. It is not a joke. Even if the inference is wrong, it is better than not preparing for anything.

"Yu Yu, hurry up and call someone on the radio, and some of us old fellows will follow up, helping to see when Shuangtou will come."

Those old men couldn't hold back anymore, the matter was too big, who could stay at home with peace of mind?

Yu Shouguang gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and immediately turned on the loudspeaker to call out.

"Every household, please pay attention. Each household sends out a strong laborer, bring a sickle, ax and matches, and report to the team headquarters immediately."

After shouting four or five times in a row, it stopped.

The time is tight and the tasks are heavy, so there must be a lot of people. There are more than 300 households, and one person from each household should be enough.

As soon as the loudspeaker yelled, they quickly informed each other when they heard it. It didn't take long for more than 300 strong laborers to gather in the open space in the backyard of the team headquarters.

Yu Shouguang personally explained to everyone that he would rather make a mistake than let it go.

Even if it is a waste of time, you must go up the mountain immediately, cut fresh branches and wormwood, and pile them in the open spaces of the ginseng. Once the frost falls, light the fire immediately.

Chapter 129 Anti-Frost

The second team has a great career, this is really true.

When all the people were assembled, the barn over there was put on the carts, and everyone sat in the carriage and went straight to the ground of No. [-] Bridge.

When he arrived at the place, Xu Shiyan called to stop the crowd first, and mowed grass and trees outside.

Xu Shiyan led a few young men, and together with the spectators, dismantled all the ground guns.

At this moment, the sky has darkened and the line of sight is not good. What if someone accidentally trips over the ground gun and gets injured?

This side dismantled the ground gun, and the people at the other end went into the forest and didn't care about those. Whatever wormwood and shrubs, they cut whatever they had.

As the sky gradually darkened, it became inconvenient to work. Someone asked Mingzi to light it, made a torch and held it up, while others continued to mow the grass.

Everyone has been busy until late at night, and finally placed a lot of firewood piles around the venue and in some open spaces inside.

Every pile of firewood was guarded by a few people. The old men and Xu Shiyan were scattered around the field.

They are all experienced people who can feel the frost coming from the changes in the soil and air.

The temperature gradually dropped at night. In early summer, people who could freeze were shivering. Many people felt that the weather was abnormal and became more vigilant.

Even the technician who kept yelling that he couldn't put frost on his face gradually became serious.
