The first batch of workers was quickly recruited.

Aunt Ma went to Chen Changsheng to make the final decision, "This is Chen Dafa from the east entrance of the village. He is hardworking and honest. This is Chen Laosan from the second household in the camp. He is very strong. He can hold up to two people... ..."

She kept talking and introduced all fifteen people in detail.

Chen Changsheng frowned and looked at the piece of paper, and couldn't help but said, "Aunt Ma, how do you remember so many people so clearly."

"I wrote it." Aunt Ma handed the paper full of circles to Chen Changsheng and said, "These are the records I made, but I can't read, but I can understand these records."

Thanks to Aunt Ma's good memory, she was introducing the circles while looking at them.

"I have also figured out the management regulations of the kiln factory, such as when to start and end work, but I have to arrange who does what work, Dafu Niang."

After all, Aunt Ma didn't know what the process of baking bricks was, and she had never baked bricks before.

Chen Changsheng said, "Well, I will make arrangements after the masters teach you."

Aunt Ma continued to add, "As for the kiln management regulations we mentioned earlier, do we need to find someone who can write? How about asking Uncle Li Zheng for help?"

The village had the most Zhengshi characters and was the most educated. If anyone wanted to draft a document or go through any formalities, Chen Lizheng would be asked to come forward.

Chen Changsheng nodded.

Mrs. Liu indeed has a talent for carpentry. After hearing Chen Changsheng's idea about the mosquito coil mold in the morning, she thought about it alone and came up with a prototype.

She found a ball of yellow mud to try first. As soon as the mold was pressed, a disc came out. The only thing was that the two pieces of mosquito repellent incense were not easy to separate and needed to be polished to be sharper.

But this is already a big improvement.

Chen Changsheng simply made fried rice noodles with pork as a lunch for thirty or forty people.

In the afternoon, the sun got a little lighter, so she went to her old house again and asked Mrs. Chen how to grow soybeans.

Mrs. Chen knew that her eldest daughter-in-law was in the business of tofu nao. The raw material was soybeans, and her daily consumption was quite large.

She said, "You know how to live a good life. You know that it is more cost-effective to grow your own beans than to buy them in the city, even though it takes a little effort."

The old lady's hands that were constantly weaving baskets finally stopped temporarily. She stood up and said, "There is gold and silver. You two take the tools and come with me. Let's go to your sister-in-law's house to dig over the land. "

Chen Changsheng led the three of them to his four-acre piece of land. The two brothers-in-law had already gone down to the field ridge with hoes, and started digging in the familiar way.

My brother-in-law is working, so I can't stand aside and watch.

Chen Changsheng said, "It turns out that we have to dig up the ground first, so I'll go back and get the hoe right away."

Old Mrs. Chen stopped her with her hand and said, "You can't do the work of digging the ground. It has to be done by men. They are strong. If the two boys Dafu Erlu come back later, tell them to come over quickly and follow them. Learn how to plow the ground if you have gold or silver.”

The old lady's eyes drifted to the boundary of the land and continued, "Four acres is not too much, and it is not too little. If four people work together, they should be able to dig it all out today.

As the saying goes, ‘A crop is a flower, and it all depends on fertilizer’. After plowing the ground, you need to pour fertilizer immediately. Don't you have a lot of chickens and ducks in your yard, as well as that big ox? Don't throw away those chicken, duck, and rhubarb cow manure, they are all good fertilizer. If that's not enough, you can go to the stove and pull some plant ashes, or you can go to the pit in your backyard and pick some up. "

Chen Changsheng still knew that animal excrement could be used as fertilizer, but forget about the pit in the backyard. She still couldn't intuitively accept human excrement.

Farmyard manure is not only nutritious, but can also adjust soil acidity and alkalinity and improve soil structure. However, it needs to be composted before using it.

Cow manure does not need to be adjusted. Chicken manure and duck manure need to be supplemented with straw, straw or chaff, and then mixed with some kitchen waste and allowed to reach a certain temperature before retting.

If the farmyard fertilizer is not enough, you can buy some organic fertilizer in the bracelet and mix it with chicken and duck manure and apply it.

Thinking of the bracelet, Chen Changsheng couldn't help but take a peek.

She had just activated the "transfer" function yesterday, transferring the calories consumed by Sanshou to herself. Adding in her own consumption, she didn't know how much she had saved.

The bracelet shows: 1520 calories.

Great!

Sure enough, I made the right choice to choose Sanshou.

This monkey is jumping up and down all day long and can't take any time off. One person can consume nearly a thousand calories, and Chen Changsheng's two people can consume nearly two thousand calories a day.

Becoming a Wanka household is just around the corner.

Old Mrs. Chen continued talking, "After pouring fertilizer, use a rake to mix the fertilizer and soil together, plow it deeply again, and finally rake it flat and make ridges before sowing seeds."

The land at her home is well taken care of and can produce more than a hundred kilograms of soybeans every year, which can be sold in the city and earn a hundred hundred cents.

If it hadn’t been for the drought last year and the fields suffered, we wouldn’t have had such a hard time this year haha.

time flies.

The finishing work in the brick kiln factory has been completed, and the master workers started to pack up their equipment and tools after finishing their work in the morning.

Chen Changsheng had to prepare meals for forty people today, which was a lot of work. He had to find someone to help him.

Since Chen Dafu's legs had to go to the city every day to see Doctor Liu for diagnosis and treatment, she only asked her eldest son to drive a bullock cart into the city to deliver goods, while the remaining three children stayed to help her.

There were not enough pots, pans, pans and other utensils at home, so Li Zheng readily took the initiative to lend out all his own things. After all, he also wanted to come to Chen Changsheng's house for dinner.

Chen Lizheng had long heard that the food at Chen Changsheng's house was the best. The last time he watched the workers eating fried locusts by the river, he had thought about it many times, but he just didn't know how to cook it. Even at such an age, it’s hard to be so shy as to ask a junior for food.

Chen Changsheng prepared half a fan of pork bones and a few radishes to make pork rib soup, stir-fried pork with chili and glutinous rice meatballs, killed two chickens to make chicken nuggets roasted with potatoes, and roasted fish with soybeans. Whole stir-fried bean sprouts and stir-fried wild vegetables.

Of course, his signature fried locusts and cool and refreshing tofu puffs are indispensable.

With seven dishes, one soup and one dessert, this noodle banquet is unprecedented in Chenjiacun.

Chen Erlu was responsible for killing chickens and fish. Chen Changsheng prepared the minced meat and glutinous rice. After first showing Sanshou and Sixi how to make glutinous rice and meatballs, the rest was left to the two children.

As long as the glutinous rice and meatballs are not separated, the children can roll them into any round or square shape.

Since he wanted to have a big meal in the evening, Chen Changsheng simply baked two rough flour pancakes for everyone for lunch.

Mrs. Liu ate a pancake at Chen Changsheng's house at noon and then went back. It was not that Chen Changsheng rushed Mrs. Liu back, but Mrs. Liu knew that her sister-in-law's house was hosting a banquet that evening.

Although he and Chen Changsheng were sisters-in-law, it was not easy for him to have dinner at someone else's house, so he casually said that Mrs. Chen had something to do with him, and hurried away with the newly made mold.

Four tables were set up in the courtyard of the Chen family. The mother and son worked hard all afternoon and finally prepared several tables of good food.
