Chapter 1720 Changes in Mountain Village


Chapter 1720 Changes in the Mountain Village

Above the waterline of the Meigu River, several white houses and white walls have been built, and saplings have been planted inside.

It is said that those saplings are very valuable and were transplanted from the only two mother trees in the country. But maybe Lianhe Township is really the place for cherries and pomegranates, especially pomegranates. According to the man who wears white clothes every day The female scholar in the lab coat told Jiuzi that based on the growth of the pomegranate trees in Lianhe Township, there is a high possibility that the pomegranate trees will bear fruit and high-branch layering a year in advance.

High branch layering is the technology of growing trees on trees. These national experts are really amazing.

Potatoes have been harvested, tartary buckwheat is about to be harvested, and corn will be harvested in more than a month. This year, the people of Lianhe Township already have some money in their pockets.

These incomes come from two aspects. One is the wages for building roads and houses for the country. You can get six to seven hundred yuan a month. It is said that the construction company did not want Yi people to be workers at the beginning, so the two sons, Zhuzi and Renzhong, went to work for them. The matter was finalized by playing tricks.

As a big Bimo, he naturally knows how difficult it is for the Yi people to learn to obey the rules, but the two boys did it. Even the people from the construction company gave a thumbs up in the end, saying The work is no worse than that of the Han people.

This income is a lot for the Yi people. In the past year, it was not enough to earn two or three hundred yuan. Now one month's wages are worth two or three years.

Then there is the income from planting trees. This income cannot be directly calculated as money, but there is an extra septic tank behind every house. Above the septic tank is a solidified toilet on the ground. The toilet is not big, but it is solidified. The ground is not small, and Jiuzi said it was prepared for the future improvement of the pig pen.

A few big-hearted families in the village have already begun to build pig pens, mainly because they are jealous of the pigs raised by Abi.

With the addition of family toilets, the countryside has become much cleaner. Things that could not be carried out despite repeated orders in the past can now be done without saying hello, and everyone has become more aware of it.

Because the orchard is interplanted with pasture, even if raising sheep is difficult, raising chickens and rabbits is no problem.

The chickens haven't been released yet, but the rabbits are multiplying very quickly. The main reason is the market. With the market of elbows, it is now easier for the things in the village to go out.

After harvesting the dried ferns, we began to collect mushroom oil, and after harvesting the mushroom oil, we began to collect potatoes. We also collected eggs and sent them to the chicken farm for artificial incubation. If nothing happened, we also sent the children up the mountain to collect rosin. It seemed that everything could be exchanged for money.

Even the flint dug out by each household when digging septic tanks, and the flint dug out when building roads, all cost money.

Trucks come to Lianhe Township every week to pull things. Renzhong said that Jiuzi has many connections in the provincial capital and can always find a way out for things in the township.

The biggest change in the countryside is that we start eating three meals a day.

Eat three meals a day! In the old days, this was something only the toast family could do!

In the past, in Lianhe Township, except for the children who were studying and had a simple lunch, almost every family had two meals, morning and evening.

It’s no longer possible now. When men go to work, women have to do farm work at home. They also have to go to the mountains to collect bracken and mushrooms. There are also a lot of chickens and rabbits to feed at home. It’s really hard not to have lunch. live.

So as soon as noon comes, every household in the countryside starts to smoke.

Every time at this time, Lao Chiri would feel grateful to Zhou Zhi in his heart.

Potatoes and corn are actually very high-yielding grains, but they have a serious problem, which is that they are not resistant to storage.

For example, if potatoes are stored in piles, they can only be stored for three months. If stored in cellars, the period can be extended to two months. However, cave dwellings are required and are prone to danger.

Another example is corn. Corn is usually dried and hung on beams, or stripped into corn kernels. However, these two methods can only be stored for half a year.

As a national reserve, the grain station will collect some, but not too much. The rest will be collected and processed by the state as commercial grain, but the price is quite low.

There is nothing you can do. If you can’t save it, you can only sell it, or replace it with buckwheat, sorghum, millet and other grains that are durable in storage.

For a long time, the folks in Lianhe Township have basically come here like this. Even remote mountain villages like Lianhe Township will be affected by the impact of the rural issues caused by the scissor gap. The machines brought by Zhou Zhi came in handy.

The key is that electricity doesn’t cost anything and you generate it yourself.

Therefore, Lianhe Township Grain Station recently launched a "welfare policy" to provide villagers with machines to cut potato slices and crush corn.

In elbow terms, the reason potatoes and corn cannot be stored for too long is that they are still alive and will consume their own nutrients, sprout, take root, get sick and rot.

The way to deal with it is to kill them and then dry them.

Sun-drying is no problem at all in Lianhe Township. There are more than 300 days of sunshine a year. When it rains, God only likes to pick it up and rain it down at night.

The way to kill them is to either cook them or break them into pieces.

But it was too labor-intensive to do this in the past.

Now that it’s done, the elbow machine can come in handy. The corn can help everyone remove the sprouts and then beat it into corn grits; the potatoes can be washed and cut into potato slices.

The wages are also replaced by home-grown potatoes and corn. With the addition of potato peels and corn germ, the feed for chicken farms and pig farms is also available.

Don’t underestimate this trick. With this trick, the villagers can store their food for two more months. They can have surplus food for nine months of the year. With the addition of melons and vegetables, not only can they ensure In order to meet human needs, even poultry and rabbits can be developed.

Those who are bolder are already considering raising pigs or sheep.

With surplus food and income, every household no longer skimps on electricity. Taking advantage of the country's opportunity to electrify two scientific research bases, Zhuzi and Renzhong also implemented the matter of electrifying everyone's home.

The changes in the mountainous countryside can be described as rapid. Water is coming, electricity is coming, roads are open, there are more green spaces, more trees, children are wearing new clothes, and adults are smiling more. The village has become clean and tidy...

Lao Chiri comes here to squat for a while every day. He can't get enough of this claw-shaped valley group and the turbid and turbulent Meigu River.

Jiuzi once planned a vision for himself. He said that after the Third Plenary Session of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in his hometown, everyone was free to work. Every family would have a surplus of food every year. At the end of the year, they would have chickens and ducks. In two years, they would start to fatten pigs. In the third year, life became very broad.

He said that it is actually possible in Lianhe Township. Now it seems that it is really possible.

However, Lao Chiri is still a little worried. Neither Jiuzi nor Renzhong can stay in Lianhe Township forever. Zhou Zhi once mentioned that this stall must be operated by someone who understands it in the future. At the very least, he needs to understand Those machines that Elbow is playing with now.

I am afraid that there is only one person in Lianhe Township who can do this, and that is my precious granddaughter, Jike Azi.

Not to mention Lao Chiri's joy at the changes in the mountain village and his worries about his successor, Tu Liangzhi is now almost exhausted from his busy schedule.

In today's Lianhe Township, Lao Chiri is the Dinghai Divine Needle, an idol that the Yi people can blindly believe in.

No matter what the matter is, as long as you say "Big Bimo thinks it's okay," then it won't take any extra effort to implement it.

However, Lao Chiri didn't have to show up for ordinary things. He walked around the countryside with his hands behind his back every day and chatted with people casually, which could calm people's hearts.
