Soon, everyone arrived in the village.
Tieniu pulled the carriage to the end of the village. Shen Fei's choice of homestead was a little biased, after all, she came later.
Two gorgeous carriages came to the village, which attracted the villagers' attention.
Village Chief Wang also didn't expect that such a young woman with a child would actually become prosperous.
Not only did they make a lot of noise in the village, but they also built houses, built pig pens to raise pigs, and planted autumn vegetables. There were all kinds of tricks.
And he also heard that winter wheat was planted in the newly allocated fields.
Winter wheat is grown in the village, but not many families grow it. Although the climate in Chang'an City can support two seasons a year, the fertility of the land is not enough.
Therefore, many households almost always plant spring wheat, once a year, or three times every two years, to give the land time to rest.
In fact, he thinks that the Shen family can cultivate the fields first this autumn, go to the mountains to dig more leaves for retting, and then add a layer of manure next year, which will be perfect for planting spring wheat.
He has also gone to remind him, but the Shen family has always been a servant, and he can only listen to the master's orders.
Even if Village Chief Wang gave suggestions, Ma Liu and the others would not dare to adopt them.
According to Ma Liu's opinion, he is actually similar to Village Chief Wang.
But due to Shen Fei's pressure, he could only listen to her arrangements.
Ma Liusan and his son also took good care of the winter wheat fields on weekdays. They didn't have high hopes for the autumn vegetables that Shen Fei mentioned.
After Shen Fei and the others got off the carriage, Nanny Li carried little Fubao into the main courtyard.
Shen Fei warned: "Mommy, you take care of little Fubao at home, and I'll go take a look in the fields."
Aunt Li nodded, "Don't worry, Miss."
Shen Fei looked at Tang Zhiling and said, "Would you like to go in and see the children, or go to the fields with me."
Tang Zhiling was curious, "What are you doing in the fields? Do you know how to farm?"
Shen Fei doesn't know how to do it herself, but she has seen a lot.
Neither farming nor breeding is the direction of her research, but her senior brother and sister are good at it.
She had a rough idea just by looking at it.
So Shen Fei nodded confidently, "Yes, I can, very proficient."
Tang Zhiling: "..."
Tang Zhiling looked at Shen Fei in disbelief, "Do you really understand?"
Shen Fei nodded heavily, "Of course, if you don't believe me, you can follow me."
So the two of them took a carriage together and went to the fields. On top of the carriage were fertilizers carried by Tien Niu.
The first thing the two of them went to was the winter wheat field. Now that the weather is getting colder, the wheat in the field has all sprouted, but it's just not neat.
Shen Fei directly asked Erniu to unload the fertilizer.
Ma Liu, his two sons and his daughter-in-law were in the fields, and they were replenishing seedlings where there was a shortage of seedlings.
When Ma Liu saw Shen Fei coming, he hurried over and said, "Miss, why are you here in the field?"
Shen Fei pointed to the bags on the ground and said, "Uncle Ma, these are fertilizers. You put them into the ground to make the land more fertile. These can increase the nutrients in the soil."
Ma Liu had long been interested in the pungent things on the ground, so he opened a bag.
I saw small black beads, round and smooth, which looked very interesting.
"Miss, is this fertilizer?"
Not only did Ma Liu want to smell it, but Shen Fei saw that he wanted to lick it and hurriedly stopped him, "Uncle Ma, this thing is poisonous and cannot be eaten. It is chemical fertilizer."
Ma Liu was just too curious and thought this thing was strange.
Now that I have heard that it is poisonous, I dare not use it on winter wheat.
"Miss, if this thing is applied to wheat, it won't kill all the seedlings!"
Shen Fei shook her head, "No, don't worry, look, just do it." Shen Fei grabbed a handful of compound fertilizer and sprinkled it on the wheat seedlings, "That's it, just sprinkle it on the roots. Just measure it the way I do. That’s it.”
Shen Fei gave him an experiment.
Ma Liu was a little tangled, but when he saw Shen Fei's insistent eyes, he didn't dare to resist, "Okay, miss."
"Okay, let's use this kind of fertilizer on all our fields. If it's not enough, you can tell me."
"yes!"
After Shen Fei and others left, Ma Liu called his son and daughter-in-law over and taught them fertilizing techniques and precautions.
He also warned that you must not eat it, wash your hands after touching fertilizer, and other precautions.
Tang Zhiling followed Shen Fei this time, but she didn't expect that she knew a lot.
The two of them rode the carriage forward again, and now they were going to Shen Fei's pig farm at the foot of the mountain.
It's a little further here, and it takes ten minutes by horse-drawn carriage.
Tang Zhiling asked: "The money-making plan you mentioned relies on these grains?"
Shen Fei shook her head, "I don't want to grow food. What I want to grow most is vegetables. I want to sell vegetables to those wealthy families."
Tang Zhiling chuckled softly, "Those families all have farms, and the tenant farmers grow vegetables and deliver them to the owners, so there is no need to go out to buy them."
Shen Fei never thought about this investigation, "Then...then I can sell the vegetables to those restaurants."
"They all have regular delivery companies, and there are a lot of farmers in Chang'an City. It's difficult to grow good vegetables. If you want to sell them well, the food must be of good quality. You can't have Bug eyes and so on, a whole host of problems.”
Shen Fei was a little worried at first, but after Tang Zhiling said more bad things, Shen Fei's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Because she can solve the problems he mentioned.
Because she has high-tech chemicals that are unmatched by others in this era.
The vegetables she grows can be sprayed with pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Not only do the vegetables grow well, they also mature early.
These are her advantages.
Shen Fei smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it. The mountain man has his own clever plan."
Seeing that she couldn't make sense, Tang Zhiling stopped trying to persuade her. He wanted to wait until she hit the south wall and then she would know how powerful she was.
When Shen Fei arrived, Liu Sanquan and Uncle Li had already come out to greet her.
Liu Sanquan's heart was focused on these twenty piglets.
There is no way, although he is the chief steward of the Shen family, there is really no property for him to take care of.
At present, only by raising the pigs can we see the money back.
The main reason is that the master is too ambitious. They are worried that at some point, the family will be left empty-handed.
"Miss, you are here."
"Uncle Liu, how are our piglets?"
"Okay, everything is fine. It's been more than half a month since I captured them, and none of them have died in infancy."
Shen Fei nodded with satisfaction, "Tieniu, go back and bring over a few bags of feed."
"Yes, Miss."
Tieniu drove the carriage and ran back again.
"Feed, what is feed?" Liu Sanquan was very curious, this is a new word.
Shen Fei explained, "It's piggy food. You can gain weight by eating this."
Liu Sanquan: "..."
As long as this pig eats pig food, it will gain weight. It really doesn't need any feed.
But he won't refute Shen Fei, because he has already tried it. As long as Shen Fei insists, they can't persuade her.
The eldest lady seems easy to talk to, but her ideas are very correct.
