Chapter 465: I bought a pile of beautiful shells.
That night Chu Chu told her grandma about this matter.
"Fubao said that planting bamboo can preserve water?" Grandma Yan believed Chu Chu's words immediately.
After asking, he started nagging again: "Don't talk about it. Think about it. On Aunt Mountain, weren't there bamboos growing near the spring that didn't dry up last time? There are also bamboos growing on both sides of the river in Taohua Village. The most important thing is that I don’t know if this bamboo will survive well in Qingzhou. Doesn’t it only need a place with water to grow?”
Grandma's concerns were actually shared by Chu Chu, but through Huahua's words, Chu Chu passed on the idea of planting bamboo to preserve water to Mr. Space, who also responded to her.
"Da Da said: If it is ordinary moso bamboo, it is indeed not easy to grow in such a drought in Qingzhou, but purple bamboo, golden bamboo, and a kind of early garden bamboo are said to be drought-resistant and cold-resistant, and are very suitable for Qingzhou's weather. , and the growth rate is extremely fast. If you plant one or two roots, a large bush will grow in the second year.”
Chu Chu also said: "My husband suggested a variety of morning garden bamboos, but there were not many of these bamboos in Dasheng Dynasty. Bamboo seedlings can be exchanged with him for gold coins. Purple bamboo and golden bamboo can be found on Auntie Mountain in space. Fu Bao cultivates them himself." That’s it.”
Grandma Yan was excited again when she heard this. She felt that Mr. Space was pretty good. At least he didn't give up his ideas. He could finally help his uncle and Mr. Li again: "Then we will discuss it with my uncle immediately when we get back. It would be best if we can plant it as early as possible. Anyway, It won’t rain this spring, right? Otherwise, even if the sweet potatoes are drought-tolerant, I don’t think there will be much yield.”
Chu Chu also thinks the same way. The sweet potato vines are produced by space, and with the meager drizzle that space contributes greatly, she believes that if there is space, they can take root and sprout, and there will definitely be a harvest after one or two rains.
But it is definitely not easy to achieve high yields without water to ensure it. After all, sweet potatoes themselves are plants with extremely high water content. How can they grow big and well without water for them to absorb?
But I also knew that in order for Mr. Li and the officials in Qingzhou to continue to believe that this method was feasible, the four of them would have to work harder to convince them.
The children were all obsessed with the seafood at the pier in Halong Town. When they passed by there, they specifically said they wanted to go in and have another seafood meal before returning to Qingzhou.
When we passed through Ha Long Town from Long Kou County, it was not even noon, so we were not in a hurry to eat.
"Uncle Zimo, shouldn't we be grateful to the old man and little brother in the village? If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have thought that the sandy land would be suitable for growing sweet potatoes. How about we go and give them some rice? "
Chu Chu thought of the small house with four bare walls and the grandfather and grandson, and couldn't help but make a suggestion. This time, I was a little prepared. It would be okay for me to get them some rice.
Qiuli and Hongying also nodded beside them. They were also kind-hearted, and they felt uncomfortable thinking about the child eating those cow dung potatoes every day. Hongying said, "How about giving them some fish and shrimp?"
Grandma Yan was kind-hearted, and she agreed with what they said: "It's right to repay someone with a peach in return. Wait a minute, I'll buy some dried fish and shrimps and give them to them too."
After saying that, he pulled Anlan out very quickly, as if he was worried that he couldn't wait until they went out.
Naturally, Zimo had no objection to sending things, but it was really inconvenient to think of people and horses traveling together, so he still suggested: "Miss, if you don't want to go, let Luo Mei go and give them some food." That’s fine, it’s quick to go and come back alone.”
It was a long journey, and it was really not worth it to go through a bunch of people just to deliver some rice. Chu Chu also nodded in agreement and secretly poured out a bag of rice and a bag of noodles for Uncle Zimo.
When Grandma Yan and Anlan came back from buying dried fish, Luo Mei was ordered to go out.
"Come back right away. Don't delay eating." Grandma Yan was still urging her from behind.
Luo Mei nodded "Okay" and got on the horse.
Hongying pulled them and said they wanted to go to the pier again, and kept urging: "Hurry, hurry, I want to buy some shells and conches this time."
Chu Chu wanted to buy it last time, and now she was a little tempted. She also wanted to see if there were any dead fish or shrimps on the beach, so they went out together.
I just came here and felt that the smell in the air was much lessened. Could it be that the fishermen had raised ducklings in just a month?
I feel quite happy when I think that fishermen will be able to sell ducks and salted duck eggs in the future. Then next time I come to this small restaurant, I won’t just eat seafood, but also roast duck, braised duck and salted duck eggs.
When I went out, I saw that the river beach was indeed a lot cleaner. I stood at a slightly higher position on the pier and looked towards the distance of the beach. I saw that in addition to the old old fishing boats, there were also fishermen who seemed to be setting up racks. They should be building sheds for raising ducks.
I probably haven't started raising ducks yet, but because we have to build a shed to raise ducks, there may be fewer people going out to fish when we get busy.
The location where they are located is originally a safe haven. The restaurant owner said that there are no strong winds and waves here, but it is very easy to breed. Even if a typhoon comes, it should not be easy to cause big losses.
My brother-in-law was not idle either. He had already gone over there with a few government servants, probably to inspect the progress of duck breeding.
Perhaps because they were worried that the children would cause trouble, they left secretly without telling them.
This time, in addition to Hongying, Qiuli, the maid, and the guards also bought a lot of empty shells at the pier. The colors were colorful in addition to white.
They bought those small conchs as soon as they saw them. Chuchu didn't want to buy too many at first, but when she saw children of both sexes gathered around to sell them, she couldn't help but buy several bags.
They are all sold by local children. They are small net bags made directly from fishing net-like silk. A small bag only costs ten cents. The larger ones in better colors are slightly more expensive, costing several cents each.
But in their opinion, it is too cheap, and they also want to take care of these people's business. They don't even say the price and just accept it when it's good.
Chu Chu planned to buy it back and ask the guards to string it together for her, and then give it to her sisters after returning to the capital.
Hearing that Chuchu had such a plan also aroused their desire to buy, so they rounded up all the good-looking snails on the pier, which made the children who had been squatting for several days but not sold a few very happy. Very, they kept bowing to them, thanking them, and some asked them when they would come again.
A few even ran home, took out the shells they had hoarded at home, and followed them to sell them.
