Chapter 106: Professional things to professional people
Because this incident has no impact on the Gu clan, they have not interfered with it, so the area of the Tiger Camp has been very clearly defined over the years.
In the southeast direction of the camp, there is the field circled by Huwei. Some people in the camp who know how to farm say that this area is the most suitable for farming.
Before, Cheng Ming told Mrs. Jiang that the land in the Tiger Camp is very fertile and very suitable for farming. If they use it properly, they will have no problem to feed themselves.
After arriving at the place, Qiao Yang pointed to a large tunnel ahead: "This is it."
Su Ying looked around and found that the place was really not small, and it was almost impossible to see the end, but the three or five vegetable crops scattered in the field really didn't have much effect.
"You have been here for so long, why is this place still so empty?"
Hearing this, Qiao Yang was so angry that he almost didn't jump up, "It was pretty good when we first opened up the land here, Madam Su doesn't know what good melons and dates can be found in this northern wilderness, things It didn't take too long, those starving ghosts came to steal it, and at first the eldest brother brought people to stop it, but wave after wave came, and they couldn't be driven away. As time went by, no one came I am happy to grow vegetables in this area.”
Su Ying nodded noncommittally, "Cheng Ming, go to the field and see what is suitable for planting this season."
Cheng Ming nodded.
As soon as Cheng Ming left, Qiao Yang took out a bag of dim sum from his body and opened it, "Ms. Su, this is the peach cake brought back by elder brother. Try it. If you like it, I will ask someone to bring it back next time."
There was something to eat, and Su Ying was not polite to him. She took a piece of peach cake and took a bite. It may be that the peach cake has been placed for a long time during transportation, so the taste of the peach cake has completely lost the crispness of freshly baked cakes. It's soft, but in this **** place, it's definitely delicious to have a bite of peach cake.
"There is a dealer named Li Mazi in the Tiger Camp, do you know?"
"Of course I know, this Li Mazi is also tactful and shrewd. When the Gu Clan was still around, he would not offend both sides. He would even send something to my elder brother from time to time. Otherwise, he would not be able to make a living all these years. It went so well."
"Where did he get those goods?"
A few days ago, she kept telling Jiang Yang to stare at Li Mazi. Not to mention, that kid was really scheming. After staring at him for so long, he changed the places where he picked up the goods. She didn't let Jiang Yang and the others Catch the man who delivered him.
Later, when she learned that Huwei also had a channel to buy goods, Su Ying asked Jiang Yang and the others to come back, but she was still a little curious about this Li Mazi.
Qiao Yang said: "This kid is very shrewd, and he covers it tightly, but it is better than we found out. His goods are all through the channel of Chu State. I heard that he has some connections at the border, otherwise he would not be able to get those things. .”
"Ma'am, I have seen it all. Although this land has been cultivated before, it has not been planted for a long time. If you want to reuse it, you have to recultivate it again. This season combined with the climate here, you can try to grow it." Some winter wheat, if you want vegetables, you can grow some cabbage and potatoes."
"Don't delay if you can plant it." Su Ying looked at Qiao Yang, "Can you get these seeds?"
Qiao Yang nodded, "No problem."
"Okay, how much is needed, Cheng Ming will communicate with you directly."
Cheng Ming felt that this piece of land could be planted, "Ma'am, are they all planted?"
Su Ying raised her eyebrows and said: "If you want to plant everything, then it will be full. I, Su Ying, can afford to pay for this, but since you are determined to do this, you can do it even if you don't eat or sleep. "
Cheng Yang was deeply moved when he saw that Su Ying believed in him so much, "Madam, don't worry, I will do my best and won't let Madam down. Before that, I need to learn more about the climate change here from Mr. Qiao."
Su Ying nodded, she always felt that it was enough to leave professional matters to professional people, and she didn't need to worry about the details.
Cheng Ming chatted with Qiao Yang for a long time, and after finalizing the number of seeds needed, Qiao Yang went back to the tiger camp first.
Su Ying was about to go back, but saw Cheng Ming standing still for a long time, "What? Is there anything else I can't figure out?"
Cheng Ming patted his brain and said, "I almost forgot the most important thing."
"kindness?"
Cheng Mingdao: "Water source, farming requires a lot of water. If there is no water source, such a large area cannot be planted."
Su Ying thought for a while and said, "I'll take a look around with you."
"good."
The place where this land is located is not far from the foot of the mountain, but the two of them walked around the cultivated land and did not see any obvious water source. There were only one or two pools for storing water, but the water in them was already very little.
The two saw a hunchbacked old man digging the ground, so they walked over.
Cheng Ming said politely, "Old man, you are in this kind of land, where does the water come from?"
The old man raised his head and pointed to the front, "Over there, go straight ahead and there is a well, and they brought water over there."
The two followed the sound, but they couldn't see the well mentioned by the old man at a glance.
"Thank you, old man." After Cheng Ming thanked him, he followed Su Ying to find the old man's direction, and it took him two quarters of an hour to walk.
"No wonder these people don't want to come here to farm. The water source is too far away, and there is only one well. How can it fill such a large area of land."
Although Su Ying didn't know much about this, Cheng Ming was right, not to mention that the well was still very small, and there wasn't much water in it.
"Go up the mountain and see if there is a source of water."
"yes."
The two turned to continue walking into the mountain, and when the sun was about to set, they finally found a small stream.
"Found it, finally found it."
Su Ying looked at the gurgling stream. This stream is very wide, and the water flows down from the upper reaches. Because the water surface is very wide, it is not easy to stop the flow. However, this stream is a short distance from the farmland they want to irrigate. The distance, if you want to lead the stream over, it will take a lot of effort.
But no matter what, it is a good thing to be able to find a water source.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back first."
"yes."
After walking for nearly two hours, the two finally saw the wooden building. After they approached, they found several people kneeling outside the door.
