Chapter 176 175. Brother-in-law

The development plan given by Professor Du is a relatively conservative one.

The core is to protect, maintain, and steadily expand Luo Yihang's harmonious soil of microbial flora.

“It is mainly divided into three parts: the core area, the alternative area and the support area.”

"The core area is your thirty-six acres of land that already has fungus colonies."

"The reserve area is the land that is prepared for improvement. To be on the safe side, it is tentatively set at fifty acres."

"The support area will provide organic matter for the first two areas, at a ratio of one to three, tentatively set at 150 acres."

Qi Ruomu introduced.

Qi Ruomu and Luo Yihang are now measuring the area of ​​farmland on the platform.

The fields they walked on were not Luo Yihang's own fields, but the wastelands in the outer villages.

Qi Ruomu held a plastic pad that was 60 cm long and 40 cm wide, and drew on it as he walked.

Use different colored pens.

"Since the core is the bacterial flora, inorganic matter, that is, ordinary fertilizers, cannot feed the bacterial flora and should be discarded."

"Because of the special nature of your soil flora, maintaining such a rich flora requires a lot of organic matter, which means a lot of ecological fertilizer."

"Professor Du speculated that the bacterial flora was formed due to the local microclimate. For the sake of safety, the providers of ecological fertilizers should also be in a microclimate environment."

“It’s the support area.”

Qi Ruomu drew a huge circle on the board, occupying half of the field on the platform.

"This part is the support area, where large-scale crops are grown, preferably crops with large size, dense planting, and high organic quality per unit area. Corn, pumpkin, potato, sweet potato, etc. are recommended."

"This part of the crops is not for consumption or sale, but mainly used as raw materials for ecological fertilizers."

"Of course, it doesn't matter if you sell some and eat some."

“You can use fertilizers as you like in the support area, but it’s best to buy ecological fertilizers.”

"The fertilizer produced in the support area is used for the growth of bacteria in the core area and for crops. You can handle the high-quality crops you grow yourself. I suggest you sell them at a higher price."

"Once the fertility of the core area is enhanced and the bacterial community is expanded, it can be transferred to the reserve area to cultivate new bacterial communities."

"Then, the reserve district will become the core district, and we will continue to select new reserve districts."

"Just like that, piece by piece, we'll turn this small environment into a core area."

"Then, you become rich, start a company, raise funds, go public, and go to the New Third Board, and you make a lot of money."

The general steps were easy to understand. Luo Yihang ignored Qi Ruomu's messy remarks and summarized them, saying, "In other words, I have to rent 200 acres of land first, and then reclaim it to plant corn, right?"

"It doesn't matter if it's less. It's a matter of speed. Just pay attention to the ratio of one to three. One is the alternative area, and the third is the supporting area. Forty acres, eighty acres, one hundred acres, two hundred acres, or eight hundred acres doesn't matter either." Qi Ruomu said casually.

Then he raised his chin towards Luo Yihang and said, "I think it's better to pack more, just in case. You know what I mean."

Luo Yihang silently calculated that for 200 acres of land, the price for leasing the land would be 400,000 yuan, and the crayfish would be available in more than a week.

It doesn't matter

The problem is the shed.

"Brother Qi, in the core area, will it affect me if I want to build a greenhouse?"

Qi Ruomu thought about it and nodded, "It does have an impact. First, it is inconvenient to get soil after the greenhouse is covered. It will be troublesome for you to transport soil to the alternative area. Second, greenhouse crops grow fast and have high yields, which consumes more organic matter. You need to expand the support area. One to five."

That means two hundred acres becomes three hundred acres, it doesn’t matter.

"What if I still want to grow mushrooms?" Luo Yihang asked again.

Qi Ruomu shook his head. "Do you want to use the core area to grow corn? It's not cost-effective."

Luo Yihang also shook his head and said, "My corn is very expensive."

"How expensive can it be?"

"59 per stick."

"..." Qi Ruomu was silent for a while. "Go ahead and plant it. What kind of value for money do you think you can get at this price? Just have fun. Use corn stalks to make mushroom bags. After the mushroom bags grow, they can be used as fertilizer. It's not a waste at all."

"Do you have a mushroom bag production line? Do you want me to introduce you to a production plant?"

Luo Yihang nodded vigorously. "Okay, there is a technician named Ma in our agricultural technology station who promotes edible fungi. I originally wanted to ask him to get the equipment. It would be even better if you have a channel there. Do you have any talent in breeding? Can you introduce one to me?"

"You really know how to take advantage of others. I'll ask you later." Qi Ruomu shook his fingers and finally tapped the board to bring the topic back. "Now let's talk about how to convert the crops in the support area into fertilizers."

"Making compost?" Luo Yihang replied.

"Fertilizer fermentation is feasible, but it is not the best solution. What other methods do you think there are?" Qi Ruomu was still keeping the secret.

Luo Yihang thought for a moment and asked, "Manure?"

"Closer, closer." Qi Ruomu was very surprised, and raised his voice as if he was coaxing a child, with a sarcastic tone.

Luo Yihang didn't tolerate him and raised his foot to kick him.

Qi Ruomu quickly jumped away, not forgetting to protect the board on his butt.

Enough experience.

"Stop making a fuss, stop making a fuss. My method is a bit complicated, so listen carefully."

"You raise a group of livestock, such as pigs and chickens, and feed the crops grown in the support area to the pigs, chickens, ducks and geese. The poop of these livestock is collected to raise earthworms, and the earthworm soil is used as fertilizer."

"Earthworm soil is a good thing. It is a pure natural pellet containing 18 kinds of amino acids. The content of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other trace elements in earthworm soil is very high. Trace elements such as iron, manganese, copper, zinc, boron and so on are also present. The most important thing is that earthworm soil also contains indoleacetic acid, gibberellin, cytokinin and many other plant growth regulators."

"In addition, you can sell the byproducts, such as pigs and chickens, which is also an income source. The earthworms themselves can break up the soil compaction."

"You have been cultivating this area for too long. The soil is very compacted. You can't just use a tiller."

"Five square meters of soil can produce 50 kilograms of earthworms in two months, and kilograms of earthworms can improve one acre of land." "There are many benefits, don't hesitate."

This set of words sounds like a TV shopping program. There is something fishy going on.

"Brother Qi, it's over. What's your purpose?" Luo Yihang came straight to the point.

"Hey, I have a research project on earthworm reproduction. Can you help me? I'll take a look at the results." Qi Ruomu tried to get close to him and assured him, "Everything about earthworm soil is true. I've studied it thoroughly. My research project is limited to reproduction. I'll give you the new technology for free. I just want the data, okay?"

"Isn't Professor Du studying soil?"

"Professor Du studies soil, but I don't. I am a generalist."

"All-rounder?" Luo Yihang looked him up and down, why did he feel unconvinced?

"Well, I haven't found a research direction yet. So I have to try everything. Okay?"

This... okay.

I agreed verbally first.

Ask Professor Du tomorrow.

It’s not that I don’t trust Qi Ruomu, but after meeting him today, I feel that he is not very reliable.

These are the general development plans.

The meticulous Qi Ruomu and Luo Yihang worked for a whole day to figure out which of the wastelands on the platform were suitable for the reserve area, which were suitable for the support area, what to plant in the support area, what the proportions of various crops were, and what the varieties were.

So many details.

Of course, these are not included in Professor Du’s plan.

These details are what Qi Ruomu mentioned at the beginning as "not in place".

There's really no need for him to be in place, he's got it all in his head, just speak about it directly on the spot and perfect it directly.

From this point of view, this person is quite reliable...
-
I have to save some food for lunch this time.

Luo Yihang said yesterday that experts from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences came, and Luo's parents prepared a lot of dishes, but they were busy and didn't eat.

Today I finally saw the expert’s students.

He is also an expert, and the whole family welcomed us warmly.

Qi Ruomu is also very good at handling relationships with strangers and grasping the key points that are extremely important.

"Uncle, aunt, you two don't have to be polite to me. We are all family and have a close relationship."

This sentence stunned Luo's father and mother. What do you mean they are family members?

"Xiao Zhao, who lives across from Ding Rui's dormitory, is dating my junior brother. My wife and children always get a share of the things your family sends to the capital. According to this, I am your mother's family." He waved at Luo Yihang and said, "Go, bring up any good things you have. Strictly speaking, I am your eldest brother-in-law."

It turns out there is this layer of relationship. Although it is a bit complicated, Luo's father and mother became even more enthusiastic and pulled Qi Ruomu aside to ask about their daughter-in-law's recent situation.

Luo Yihang smiled bitterly, dug out a few pieces of fruit candies that Luo Qi had left behind when she came over from the drawer, grabbed a handful and stuffed them all into Qi Ruomu's hands, "Come on, big brother-in-law, have some sweets first."

The guests enjoyed the lunch very much.

None of the guests who have eaten at Lao Luo's house were unhappy.

Qi Ruomu had a delicious meal. After the meal, he kept talking for the whole afternoon and had another meal with him in the evening.

After finishing the meal, they walked away with their heads held high, carrying the large and small bags of "local specialties" that Luo's father and mother had brought them.

You can't bow your head, if you do you will come out.

The guest left happily.

night.

Luo Yihang returned to his grandfather's house.

Got up to the roof with guitar.

The night sky in late summer is dotted with stars, and the gentle mountain breeze takes away the tail of the summer heat.

Luo Yihang sat down in his usual place, picked up Xiao Xiaoman, laid him down and rubbed his soft belly.

This little guy has been in our family for a month. He has grown a little now and is already half the height of Ding Xiaoman.

He became familiar with the house and became bolder, daring to follow Ding Xiaoman out to play.

It didn't even dare to run out alone.

Ding Xiaoman also... well, taking care of the child is considered responsible.

The first skill taught to Xiao Xiaoman is climbing up the roof.

Luo Yihang rubbed Xiao Xiaoman's belly. Ding Xiaoman came over meowing, lay down at his master's feet, wagging his tail.

Xiao Xiaoman's attention was immediately attracted. He turned over, shook his fur, jumped around and chased Ding Xiaoman's tail.

Luo Yihang picked up the guitar, plucked the strings, and played a soft song.

"Over the hills, though my hair has turned grey, I still keep on talking about the sorrow that time has given me..."

"Before I could see immortality as I wished, I lost myself first..."

"After crossing the hill, I found no one waiting..."

"Chattering will never bring back tenderness..."

The spiritual energy circulates in the body, gathers, and bursts out along with the singing.

Luo Yihang suddenly pressed down the strings of the zither, and made a spell with his hands, "Quick! Pulling the machine technique, is Qi Ruomu a good person or a bad person!"
