Chapter 224 Advice to Yun

The three workshops in Zhuangzi: five-spice powder, oyster sauce and soy sauce are also going smoothly. The supply of five-spice powder and oyster sauce to Zuixianju has brought better reputation and customer flow to Zuixianju, and the cooperation has become more stable.

The production cycle of soy sauce is long, and it is still in the tank and has not been shipped.

The house of the brewery is already under construction, and Uncle Xu is still helping to supervise the construction. The current progress.

Wei Ruo currently has five shops in his hands: three Sibaozhaione in Huzhou, one in Xingshan County, and one in Taizhou. The operating conditions of individual rooms are slightly worse than last year, but the overall profit is objective.

The business of the grain shop opened in Xingshan County last year was very good. After the sale, it was always out of stock, because Wei Ruo asked to only sell a part of the reserves, and to keep enough grain for himself and the people in the village in the next year. Just in case there is a natural or man-made disaster.

Xu Ji's lo-mei shop is worse than last year after it opened this year, the meat price has risen, and the daily sales have dropped, but this is not a problem with their lo-mei shop, Wei Ruo's shop is still in good condition among many shops .

In general, shops make money.

Wei Ruos focus is still on farming, as long as the shop can maintain a positive income and help sell the output of Zhuangzi and the workshop, and whether Zhuangzi can have a good harvest this year is related to human life.

At Xiaowei's Mansion, the Xintian that Yun's longing for has also been bought.

The price of fields near Fucheng is high, so the Yun family bought a small village with 200 mu of land for the time being.

Wei Ruo also kept his promise, and followed Yun to Xinzhuangzi.

"What does Ruo'er think?" Yun asked.

When she bought the Zhuangzi, she had already heard that although the terrain on the Fucheng side was flatter and more open than that on the Xingshan County side, the quality of the soil was not very good. The crops planted in previous years did not grow very well, and the income was very mediocre.

"The soil is not fertile enough, so it needs to be turned over, landfilled or burned with straw ash, and farmyard manure applied. Repeat this three times, and the amount of fertilizer applied each time is half a car of straw ash and half a car of farmyard manure per mu of land."

Wei Ruo gave a solution.

The soil quality in Fucheng is mostly the same. How did Wei Ruo improve and fertilize the more than 1,000 mu of land he bought himself, and the same process happened for the 200 mu of land that Yun bought.

Its just that Yuns bought it late, unlike Wei Ruos field that he acquired last winter, he had enough time to improve it, and now its all planted with rice.

Wen Yanyun showed a troubled expression: "It's easy to dig the soil, just let the long-term workers in the village be busy for a while, but there is no place to look for straw today, and it was such a cold day last year, even if there is a lot of straw, they will all be taken away." Keep the house warm."

"Then dig the soil and fertilize it directly. It can be used for cattle, sheep, livestock or even human beings. It's still the amount of fertilizer for half an acre of land." Wei Ruo said.

"I'm afraid this is not a small expense." Yun said.

"Sharpening a knife is not a mistake in chopping firewood. If you want a good harvest for a year, the land must be fertile, and the initial effort is necessary." Wei Ruo said with a serious expression.

"Is there no other way?" Yun asked unwillingly.

Applying farmyard manure can make the soil fertile, of course Yun also knows, but because of the high cost of this material, Yun wondered if Wei Ruo could have other better ways.

"Mother, it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. Whether the soil is fertile or not is nothing more than two points: inorganic fertilizer and organic fertilizer; plus ventilation and water. If the weather is more beautiful, it will give enough light, and the weather will not cause major problems. The crops will be fine." It can grow well. The straw ash or farmyard manure Im talking about is already the cheapest thing I can think of to enrich the soil.

Soil fertilization is no better than saline-alkali land improvement, and there is not that much knowledge. Many farmers know the methods, but sometimes they are reluctant to make up their minds, or they dont have enough money in hand to make so much investment on the premise.

What Wei Ruo said Yun didn't quite understand. She didn't know about organic fertilizer or inorganic fertilizer.

But the solution Wei Ruo gave made her not very satisfied.

Seeing that Yun's brows were frowning and he hadn't made a decision for a long time, Wei Ruo didn't say anything more.

She has come to help her check the soil and make suggestions as agreed, and it is up to her whether she is willing to accept it or not.

After a while, Yun said: "I will arrange for someone to purchase several truckloads of sheep manure in advance for fertilization."

Wei Ruo heard the meaning of the words, Yun planned to fertilize, but not according to the amount Wei Ruo said, only planned to fertilize once, and only used a few truckloads of sheep manure for two hundred acres of land.

Wei Ruo didn't say anything, respecting Yun's choice and decision.

"Also, the rice seed I told you about last time should be fine, right?" Yun asked again.

"no problem."

"That's good. If you use that rice seed, even the land with not enough fertility can grow well." Yun's put more hopes on good rice seeds.

"I can't guarantee this. After all, no matter how good the seeds are, they must have good land, and both are indispensable." Wei Ruo said.

Then Yun told Wei Ruo: "I plan to grow some sweet potatoes in the Zhuangzi in Xingshan County this year. It is said that they are easy to take care of, not as delicate as rice. The family who planted sweet potatoes in Xingshan County last year not only I have enough food for myself, and I have sold a lot.

Yun didn't know that the family belonged to Wei Ruo in front of her.

"Yes." Wei Ruo was not surprised. This year, many families in Xingshan County have switched to planting sweet potatoes to ensure food production. This is a good thing.

Although long-term consumption of sweet potatoes may not be as good as rice, but when the age is not good, the main purpose of everyone is to have enough food, not to eat well.

Then Yun told Wei Ruo some things about the family property. Wei Ruo listened carefully, but basically did not comment.

Yun's overall planning of the family's property is not a problem. Except that he is not willing to spend money on the preliminary work, he can't find any faults in the rest.

In the city, a government notice was specially posted, and the names of those who made outstanding contributions to this matter were written on it.

Among them, Wei Ruo's two names appeared on the announcement. One was Xu Heyou, and Dr. Cheng, Dr. Cai and others were written in the most conspicuous positions.

The second is Wei Qingruo, who appeared in the announcement on the grounds of assisting Princess Jingmin to run for the people.

Being able to have this honor, in addition to Wei Ruo's own dedication, Mrs. Yuan's special care also played a decisive role.

When discussing meritorious deeds and rewards, the government office sent the imperial court's reward to Xiaowei's mansion.

If Wei Ruo is a daughter of the clan, when it comes to meritorious deeds and rewards, the credit is credited to Xiaowei's Mansion, saying that Xiaowei's Mansion has made contributions to the people of Taizhou Prefecture, and Wei Mingting has recorded a credit.
