Chapter 93 Digging a Pond and Planting Rice Seedlings

After Yu Wan rested for a stick of incense, Li Pozi came in with food and put it on the table: "Miss Four, I've put the food on the table, please try it."

Yu Wan came out to the living room, she sat down, picked up a piece of rabbit and ate it.

"Well, it tastes good, better than before, Aunt Li, have you eaten it?"

Seeing that her master liked it, Li Pozi said: "Miss Four, you can eat it, there is more in the kitchen, you can eat it."

"Okay, then Aunt Li, go eat quickly, I will collect the dishes later."

"Yes", Li Pozi left.

Yu Wan ate fresh rabbit meat fried with chili peppers and ate an extra bowl of rice.

After dinner, Zhu Dagui was already waiting outside, and she let Zhu Dagui enter the living room.

"Miss Four."

"Just tell me if you have anything to say, I came back just to take a look."

Zhu Dagui said, "Fourth Miss, I'm mainly talking about the crops on the farm. The seedlings have been grown, but there is not enough water in the fields on the farm. I'm afraid that they won't survive long after being planted."

Yu Wan knocked on the table. She remembered that the farm was at the foot of Daqing Mountain, and there was a stream of water flowing down from the mountain.

"Uncle Zhu, let the people on the farm plant all the seedlings and plant everything that should be planted on the ground. I'll find a way to solve the water problem. Accompany me to the mountain tomorrow."

Zhu Dagui: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

After Zhu Dagui left, Yu Wan entered the space. She had to see the seedlings that had been grown. Now was the time to plant rice, so she had to hurry.

Although rice could also be grown in the space, she couldn't bear to sell the things produced in the space. She had to keep them for her family to eat.

Besides, the space was not big, and there were only about 20 acres of vacant land. She planted peppers on 10 acres, vegetables on 5 acres, and seedlings on one acre of the other 5 acres. She planted rice on the remaining 4 acres, which could be harvested unlimited times.

Those herbs that are ripe are all placed in the storage bag. Many of them are newly planted in the spiritual land.

There are five acres of spiritual fruit trees, and they are picked when they are ripe. When she left, she left a storage bag of spiritual fruit for Feng Shi and others. Now, except for the ones that are made into wine, there are not many spiritual fruits, and only she can use them.

So in fact, the space does not produce much, and the fields on the farm outside must be planted with seedlings.

"Aoaoao", at this time, the two white tigers ran to her side, licking here and there.

Yu Wan touched their heads: "What? Want to go out?"

The two white tigers shook their heads and lay one on each side of her.

The two white tigers have been in the space for a long time, and they have developed spiritual intelligence. Don't underestimate them, they know how to supervise Sanzhuzi, as long as that guy is lazy, the two white tigers will definitely slap him.

Yu Wan played with the white tigers for a while, and then fell asleep in the space.

The next day, after breakfast, Zhu Dagui followed Yu Wan up the mountain along the farm.

Yu Wan walked up the mountain in the direction of the water source, checking the terrain as she walked.

Zhu Dagui didn't know why Yu Wan was walking in the direction of the water source: "Fourth Miss, what are you doing?"

Yu Wan: "Let's see where the water comes from. If the water source is sufficient, we can connect the water to the land. If not, we can dig a pond on the farm."

"But I think digging a pond to store water is more practical. Regardless of whether the water source is cut off or not, there is water to use on the farm, and it may be possible to solve the problem of drinking water."

Zhu Dagui thought about it and it was right.

Now the wells on the farm have not produced much water. When summer comes, there will definitely be a water shortage, so water storage is necessary.

Yu Wan looked at the terrain and thought that it would not be a big problem to break the bamboo to get water to the field, but it depends on whether the water source is sufficient.

The water collected by bamboo is living water, and the water stored in the pond is dead water. It is no problem to use it to irrigate crops, but it is not good for drinking.

She kept going up, over a mountain, and finally stopped in a small valley.

Yu Wan saw that the source of the water was the water from the big puddle in the valley, which flowed down the mountain.

The water in the big puddle was all infiltrated from the three sides of the mountain. Yu Wan looked at the puddle and knew that the water would be cut off in a matter of minutes.

"Uncle Zhu, let's go down the mountain and quickly find someone to dig a pond in our field and fill it with water. The water can be cut off at any time."

This water is not like the big water behind Yujia Village. It is the water flowing out of a big waterfall on the mountain, which is the river at the entrance of the village. That river goes directly to the county town. The river next to Yu Wan's farm in the south of the city is from that river.

It is unlikely that she would use bamboo to collect water.

"Okay, I will arrange it right away."

The master and servant came down the mountain, and Zhu Dagui went to make arrangements. Yu Wan looked around the farm. They were still planting rice today. Yesterday afternoon, several people planted several acres, and now there are more than ten acres.

Yu Wan frowned. She looked at the fields on the farm. There were at least 400 acres of fields. At this speed, it was still too slow.

After dinner in the evening, Yu Wan asked Zhu Dagui to sit down: "Uncle Zhu, in the afternoon, I saw that there were not enough people on the farm. Tomorrow you can recruit people in the town to help plant rice and dig ponds. We will pay you two kilograms of brown rice a day. Do you think it is feasible?"

Zhu Dagui's eyes lit up when he heard it: "Fourth Miss, this is of course feasible. Now many people don't have enough food at home, and crops can't be planted in drought. If you recruit people like this, there will definitely be a lot of people coming."

At this time, food is more useful than money.

"Well, you start recruiting people tomorrow, but you must recruit people who do farm work to avoid people who are unqualified."

"Okay, I will keep a close eye on it, Fourth Miss, don't worry."

Yu Wan nodded and asked Zhu Dagui to leave.

There is no problem with the farm in this town. As long as she does it according to her wishes, the seedlings can be planted in three days.

The farms in the county are much more troublesome. There is no water in the other three farms, so they have to rely on her little cloud and rain technique.

"Huh? Why don't I dig a reservoir in those three farms and use the space to transport the water there?" Yu Wan patted her head and cursed herself for being stupid.

So Yu Wan entered the space, collected the spiritual medicine from the one-acre land, and asked Sanzhuzi and the little snake to dig a pond.

The little snake: "Master, you are not stupid. I wanted to remind you before, but I think I'll forget it. Let's see how stupid you are, Master."

"See? You idiot, if you dare to be smart next time, I will roast you." Yu Wan directly slapped the little snake into the soil.

The little snake came out and yelled at Yu Wan: "You are so fierce, be careful that Mu Meiren doesn't want you."

"Oh, I'm so scared, hurry up and work, there will be a task after you finish." Yu Wan patted her chest and kicked the little snake, kicking it into the one-acre land, then she flashed out of the space, too lazy to listen to the broken snake's quacking.

The next day, Zhu Dagui set up a table at the south street corner to recruit people. As expected, many people came to work.

Zhu Dagui selected 40 people to go to the farm and planted the remaining seedlings in two days. The pond was also dug and filled with water.
