Chapter 4 After eating, I need to take a walk to digest(2/2)

"Chestnut?"

"Is it a cone?"

In fact, they are all chestnuts. The southern chestnut fruits are large in shape. One fruit may have more than three kernels, and the shape of the kernel may be flat.

The northern chestnut fruit is small in shape, with only one or two kernels per fruit, and the cone shape is usually more obvious. This is the type of chestnut used for the sugar-fried chestnut. Some people call northern chestnuts cone chestnuts in order to distinguish them.

Wei Shijin smiled and said, "When will it take? Give me some."

"It's almost Mid-Autumn Festival. It'll be there at that time." Chestnuts are impatient and usually have more around Mid-Autumn Festival, with the best quality and the most suitable price.

The three of them walked slowly and climbed up the stairs. The things in the snakeskin bag were clearly visible at a glance.

"Is this organic fertilizer used?" The director of the village seemed to be quite familiar with crops.

He saw that it was obviously half smaller than an ordinary snakeskin bag, but the height was more than one meter. It contained black soil, and there was a seedling five or six centimeters tall in the middle.

The NS area of ​​the river is mostly red soil. The ladders on the mountain will turn into drought and brown after a few years, but it is absolutely impossible to be so dark.

"I used vermicompost mixed with the mud in the yard below. The vermicompost was too expensive, and it cost 2 cents per kilogram." Feng Shen said with a smile. "I also used some necessary trace elements."

Director Zhuang smiled and said, "If it is a good breed, it's okay to have a higher cost." He looked at the snakeskin bag and said, "This method is pretty good. There are a lot of labor left when digging."

"It can be much less manual. Just break the bag directly."

Tubers in yam usually grow straight downward and can grow more than one meter deep. If you dig manually, one plant will have to be dug for a long time. You also need to hire skilled workers, otherwise it will be easy to dig.

There are a lot of labor. Like Feng Shen now, it can save a lot of wages and labor.

Of course, bagging is also labor-intensive than farming directly. Ten kilograms of yam beans are only seven or eight thousand pills. In total, there is always a lot of labor costs left.

"It should take half a year to mature."

Feng Shen nodded: "I didn't expect Director Zhuang to be an expert. It really takes about six months."

Director Zhuang smiled for the first time and said, "I also came from the countryside. A relative has planted this and I know a little about it... In addition to the roots, there are also yam beans. I often ate them when I was a child. The taste was similar to that of yam, but it was more glutinous."

After seeing Huaishan Mountain, the three of them continued to climb up and walked into the bamboo forest. Next to the bamboo forest, they saw a pool. Half of the pool was buried underground, with only a top exposed. There was a hole that leaked out a clear stream of water.
