A Blessed Wife At Home Chapter 1680: Planting plan

As for Zanthoxylum bungeanum and star anise, when she and Shao Yunduan went to see the field that day, they discovered that there were wild ones in the surrounding mountains and forests, and they were growing pretty well.

At that time, I had this idea in my heart.

Otherwise, how could she buy so much 50,000 acres of mountain farm in one go?

With super powers to bless her, she is not worried at all about the growth of medicinal herbs, peppercorns, star anise, etc. After harvesting, she will dry them in the sun and then find a buyer. Even if the transportation is not very convenient in the mountainous area, she does not have to worry.

She also wanted to plant some lychees, longans, mangoes, dragon fruits, etc., but after weighing the considerations, she reluctantly gave up.

These tropical fruit trees are not suitable to appear here yet, let’s wait and see in two years.

This place is not too far from the provincial capital of Yuzhang. If you really want to eat it, it is very easy to hurry up and transport it here.

After deciding what to plant, the next step is to open up wasteland.

Time is a little tight, but Qiao Xuan is willing to pay.

One thousand acres of land is readily available and can be used to grow medicinal materials. Three thousand acres of wasteland are connected to this one thousand acres of land. The terrain is relatively flat compared to the mountains. There are also few trees, mostly shrubs and weeds.

But even opening up such land is not easy. The shrubs are all in clusters, and many of the stems have thorns. The clumps are intertwined together, and the underground roots are coiled and extending in all directions. If you want to Digging it out by the roots is definitely not a small project.

As for the mountains, there are more trees. The mountains Qiao Xuan bought have been carefully selected. Most of them are overgrown with weeds and have few trees. Even so, cleaning them up is also a big project.

Now it is just in time for spring plowing. In about half a month, it will be time to sow. It is the busiest time for farmers, and the wages for hiring people to clear wasteland are much higher.

Moreover, we have to rush for time. All medicinal herbs, potatoes, peppers, and star anise must be planted before mid-May.

When Qiao Xuan talked to Song Shi, Mian Mian and others, everyone became a little nervous.

Song Shi quickly recruited workers in the city, and they were paid thirty-five cents a day, including lunch.

This is a good job with a relatively high salary. There are many people who have signed up. However, not many people have hoes, sickles, hatchets, axes and other land reclamation tools at home. Iron farm tools are not cheap. , farm tools are not all made of iron, nor are they so complete, let alone urbanites who have no land or only a little vegetable land. However, land reclamation can only be made of iron.

Song Shi can only regretfully give up.

After all~IndoMTL.com~ they don’t have these tools at home. There are blacksmith shops in the city, but iron farm tools are not that easy to buy, and there are not many. After buying them all, there are only about forty pieces of various farm tools in total.

In the end, only 80 people were hired, and only half of these 80 people could bring their own farm tools.

If we hire people from the village during the slack period, there will be no such problem.

The eighty people were divided into two groups, working on the plains and mountains at the same time.

On the mountain side, Song Shi led a few people to watch in person. On the flat land, Lu Qian, Liu Fu, Mori and others helped watch.

Qiao Xuan gave instructions one by one, asking them to arrange the division of labor for everyone and try to be as orderly as possible. The firewood for land reclamation was not needed at home, so it was piled up first, and it would be divided among dozens of them on the last day.

The reason why they are not allowed to take them away every day is because they are afraid that trivial matters such as who gets more and who gets less will affect the progress.

Don’t look at it as just a small benefit, there will always be competition for the benefit.
