After the Earthquake of Rebirth

The house Bai Chengyi mentioned was on the hillside of Ning's farm.The highest point on the hillside is the small courtyard where Ning Qiyan and the others live. The size and layout of the house are built according to the space, facing south from the north.In the middle is the living room. Considering that there will be a lot of people coming to have a meal after moving here, the living room is built a little bigger, at least it can accommodate two large dining tables and there is room.Ning Qiyan and Du Cheng lived in the east room, while Ning Xiaowen and Hu Zi lived in the west room.There is a storage room on both sides of the east and west houses.Except for the storage room next to the east room, which is expected to store some things that are not used in ordinary times, the other rooms have been heated, especially the storage room next to the west room, which is the best insulated. In the bedroom.

The yard of Ning Qiyan's house occupied the entire top of the hillside, and there was also a house specially used for making sauces and temporary storage in the yard.Standing on the edge of the yard, you can see the whole farm clearly.

Further down, there are two small courtyards on the left and one on the right, respectively belonging to Bai Chengyi's family and Wang Yang's family.

When the house was first built, Ning Qiyan directly asked the two to choose the location, and the yards of the two families took up quite a lot of land.

Although judging from the construction of the new city, the government will allocate housing to all citizens, but it should only be for temporary residence, and it is impossible to allocate a house for free without paying a penny.Moreover, Bai Chengyi and the others directly participated in the construction of residential buildings, knowing that although each house has more than 60 square meters, judging from the surviving population of several million in D City and the number of residential buildings planned in the new city, after the relocation, it is likely to be several Families crowded into one house.In that case, he might as well live on a farm, at least not with people he didn't know.

And when building the house, Bai Chengyi and Wang Yang's family divided the rooms directly according to the number of people.Everyone can have their own bedroom.

A circle of houses was also built on the hillside, without a yard, and with a small layout. Ning Qiyan planned to make a dormitory for the employees employed by the farm in the future.Every room is equipped with heated kangs, which are directly connected to the small earthen stoves in the house. In winter, each family can heat their own kangs according to the situation.

The pig pens, sheep pens, chicken farms, and duck farms are just below the hillside, and there are still a lot of places reserved around them, which can be expanded when the number of breeding is expanded in the future.

The newly built house needs to be ventilated to dissipate moisture before moving in, so Ning Qiyan and the others are still living in tents for the time being.

After the people hired to build the farm left, the whole farm fell silent, and Ning Qiyan and the others had more things to do every day.

There is no need to worry too much about irrigation, but they have to grow the vegetables in the greenhouse by themselves.

The seeds are mainly exchanged from the redemption point. The area of ​​the greenhouse is too large, and Ning Qiyan's own seeds are just a drop in the bucket.

In the early stage, Ning Qiyan's family mainly planted vegetables with a short growth cycle, such as lettuce, Chinese cabbage and spinach, which can be matured and picked in more than a month.Taking time, just in time to wait for Cangyun Mountain's first season of grain to be harvested, and the new grain will be harvested after it is planted.At that time, the rush of farming was over, and many people could be recruited to help harvest.

There are also two greenhouses vacated by them, which are specially used for cultivating and planting fruits. This year's time is too late, and the fruits picked from watermelons and strawberries can only wait until next year.These two greenhouses are planted with peaches, cherries, apples and other fruit stones left over from eating in the space of the past two years.The survival rate of this kind of fruit tree planted by itself through the core is very low, but one tree can survive.

In the orchards preserved by the government after the earthquake, most of the fruit trees were either sunburned or frozen to death due to the extreme climate.Compared with vegetables, which are also in short supply but have a relatively short growth cycle, the lack of fruits in the entire D city is more serious.

Ning Qiyan didn't dare to transplant the fruit trees in the space. He was afraid that they would not survive after transplanting. It would be better to stay in a space with a good climate and provide them with fruit pits for planting every year.

Although busy, but after the work on the farm was on the right track, Huzi and Bai Chengyi rushed back to Cangyun Mountain to help Zhang Pingguo and the others harvest corn, sowing and cultivating so hard during spring plowing, and Zhang Pingguo taking care of it every day. If it was wasted due to untimely harvesting, not to mention Zhang Pingguo, even Ning Qiyan and Hu Zi would feel sorry for them to death.

Compared with such a vast field as the farm, the three of them have less than a fraction of the farmland in Cangyun Mountain, but after all, they have been farming for so long, so they are not willing to give it up casually.

However, the news brought by Dong Wen'an that the government intends to move all the citizens back to the new city for the winter before this winter made Ning Qiyan hesitate.

With such a large farm, you can grow more land than in the mountains, and there is a semi-automatic irrigation system. In summer, you don't have to work hard to fetch water yourself, and water the land twice a day.In this case, their land in Cangyun Mountain would be a bit tasteless.

As far as the entire city of City D is concerned, whether it is the experience before rebirth or the current situation, even if the citizens move back to the new city for the winter, they will definitely have to return to Cangyun Mountain to farm after tomorrow's spring.Unlike before the earthquake, no matter how fast City D develops, it has to rely on its own self-sufficiency in food and vegetables in recent years. The land that has been reclaimed must not be thrown away.

But Ning Qiyan had the farms close to the new city to rely on, so there was no need to rely on the fields on the mountains to support themselves.Ning Qiyan thought about it, and simply rented out the land on the mountain, which saved them the trouble of juggling both ends.

But in the end it was Du Cheng who let him dispel this idea.

As long as City D still needs the land of Cangyun Mountain to cultivate, it means that at least one-third of the citizens will live in the mountains for more than half of the year from spring plowing to autumn harvest, so Wang Yang and his Cangding store cannot close down.If the store is not closed, we can't just keep the two girls Liu Jia and Wang Yuanyuan around. Whether it's Wang Yang and the others or Bai Chengyi and the others, there must be at least two or three men on the mountain. If the fields of the three families can be planted with potatoes, sweet potatoes, and other grains that are harvested once a year, and then the entire field in the depression can be covered with small-scale irrigation pipes, two or three people can do it without giving up the fields on the mountain.

Speaking of Cangding Store, before Ning Qiyan could propose, Wang Yang and the others planned to divide it into two parts.Seeing that the new city is getting more and more lively, when the citizens move back, all the people in City D will live in the new city throughout the winter, so Canding Store will definitely open a store in the new city.Even if everyone goes back to the mountains to farm next spring, there will be no shortage of people in the new city whether they are participating in the reconstruction or staying here to live and develop. Therefore, if the stores in the new city are to be opened, the stores in Cangyun Mountain must not be lost.

Ning Qiyan thought the same thing, and at the end Wang Yang and the others figured it out, how would the staff be allocated if the two stores were open at the same time.

After Huzi and the others went back to the mountain to grab the harvest, there were only three people left on the farm, Ning Qiyan, Du Cheng and Ning Xiaowen.Although Ning Qiyan's back injury didn't hurt anymore, Du Cheng and the others still didn't dare to let him go around. In the end, Ning Qiyan had to stay in the yard that hadn't dried yet, helping Ning Xiaowen take care of the sauce.

The orders for sauces have not been interrupted. Even when he was busy building the farm in the dark, Ning Xiaowen still took time to make sauces every day.The daily credits given to those hired workers come from the profits from the orders, otherwise Ning Qiyan would have invested all his net worth in contracted farms, and the remaining credits would even buy the materials and accessories for laying the irrigation system not come down.

Du Cheng and Ning Xiaowen got up early every day, turned on the irrigation valves, watered all the land on the farm that needed to be watered, and then plunged into the greenhouse to take care of the vegetables.

Since they started recruiting workers, their family's credit points have been in a tight state. Every time they receive an order to check out the credit points, they have to save carefully so that they can barely last until the next checkout day.That's why not only Ning Qiyan, but even Hu Zi, who had never been in charge of housework, was in a hurry to save some credit.With such a big farm here, it is sure to make money if it is said to make money, but if there is any need, the amount of money spent may not be small.So no matter what, the family has to save some credits as backup funds.

For now, it's one thing to order from the redemption point, but the biggest source of income is the vegetables in the greenhouse.

As for sales, no one worries. There are so many citizens in City D, even if they sell them loosely, they don’t have to worry about not being able to sell them. What’s more, if you want to save trouble, you can also cooperate with the redemption point like a sauce, directly sign an order for shipment, or trade with the army in batches.So Ning Qiyan and the others discussed, wait for this batch of vegetables to mature, and continue to grow such short-cycle vegetables. At least in one or two years, it is impossible for City D to have a large-scale vegetable planting business like their farm.And taking a step back, even if there is no way to sell so many vegetables when they are mature, they can still be made into dried vegetables. When winter comes, even those who are usually reluctant to spend credit points to buy vegetables, will definitely use wild vegetables to deal with them. I need to buy some vegetables to go back to eat.The whole winter is full of ice and snow, not to mention wild vegetables, you can't even see weeds, if you don't eat dried vegetables, do you still eat rice with mixed grains like in the worst time?

As for the sales of the vegetables, there was really no need to worry. A few days later, before Huzi and the others came back, He Jun had the cheek to come over, along with Hao Yixing, the logistics manager of the first station.

Without the two of them opening their mouths, Ning Qiyan knew that they were aiming at the vegetables in the shed that hadn't grown to the size of half a palm.

He Jun and Ning Qiyan were already quite familiar with each other, so they went straight to the point and wanted to buy all the vegetables in the shed of Ning's farm in one go.

Ning Qiyan twitched the corners of his mouth, and said in amazement: "I didn't expect you to be 1.8 meters tall, but you have a face of [-] meters."

He Jun: "?"

Looking at He Jun with question marks all over his face, Hao Yixing kindly explained: "You say you have a big face."

He Jun: "..." Glaring at Hao Yixing, which side are you on? !

Hao Yixing didn't bother to talk to him, he didn't even mention the purchase price, he just opened his mouth to ask for all the vegetables, not to mention Ning Qiyan, even he felt that He Jun's face was too big.
