Busy Farming in The Last Days

Having experienced the apocalypse once, Ji Cha has an indelible paranoia about food storage.

Even though the various grain resources he has stored in the warehouse are enough for everyone in the factory to eat for two years without blinking, he still cannot let go of the sense of insecurity with such a limited time limit.

The only and fastest immediate solution is to plant more.And only by forming a truly self-circulating production chain can the dietary needs of livestock be basically met.

The land in the factory is not too much, but if it is really done by hand, it is quite difficult.

Potato planting requires a relatively loose and non-caking soil environment. The soil texture in the factory building is considered acceptable, but it still needs to be properly replanted with machinery.

Wang Lixin heard Ji Cha's plan for growing potatoes, and without a word, he went to find a hoe to work, and he didn't forget to call his son, "Study hard, and find someone you can take advantage of."

Ji Cha quickly called him to stop, and then went to the warehouse where the machinery was stored at the back to take out the two cultivators.The cultivator is hand-held and small in size, and the length of the land that can be turned at one time is about one meter.

"Use this, take advantage of it."

The power of the machine is far greater than that of manual operation. The Wang family father and son, one on each side, turned over the [-] square meters of land planned by Jicha for Tudou in a few minutes.

Wang Lixin looked at the cultivator in his hand while wiping the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "This is a good thing."

Ji Cha took Zhang Xing and used a hoe to build up the ridges of the fields to clearly delineate the boundaries between the fields.It's just that his actions are stupid, a hoe is like a magic sword, Liang Jincheng looks terrified, afraid that Ji Cha will hit his foot with a hoe.

The remaining [-] square meters will use a lot of potato seeds, but the potatoes on hand are all fresh and intact.There is no way, the seeds have to temporarily germinate and grow seedlings by themselves.

The time is approaching the end of August, and theoretically, most of the crops planted in autumn should be transplanted into the ground at this time.Except for the [-] square meters of potatoes planted in front of them, their progress was already a bit slow.

Ji Cha has figured it out in his mind. At worst, the greenhouse will be used earlier. Anyway, the crops have higher requirements on the ambient temperature, and the moisture and sunlight can be controlled more flexibly.

Liang Jincheng couldn't stand anymore, and wanted to go forward to help Ji Cha with work, but Ji Cha stopped him when he stretched out his hand, "I'll come, I'll come, you rest."

Liang Jincheng looked around. Grandma and the women were busy sorting out a small piece of land for seedlings, while the men were busy turning over large pieces of land in the field.The only people who are idle are Xiaochao and him who are sitting at the side reading picture books.

Not to mention that what he can't bear to watch is Ji Cha's stance of wanting to make himself disabled every minute.

"I'll do it." Liang Jincheng stepped forward and grasped the hoe in Ji Cha's hand involuntarily. He only used one hand, and Ji Cha felt that the hoe seemed to be rooted in the ground, and he couldn't pull it out. .

He could only let go of the situation, but he was not at ease. He walked around Liang Jincheng back and forth, trying to persuade him, "Senior, let me do it. You have never done this job before, and you are not used to it."

Zhang Xing clumsily hoeed behind the two of them, sweating all over his body. Hearing that the two people in front were still scrambling for work, he clicked his tongue, "Ji Cha, you want to work so much, well, I'll do it for you here."

Before Ji Cha could speak, Liang Jincheng looked back at him.Zhang Xing gave him a half-jittery look, shrank his neck and simply turned his back to them to work.

Just like this, he still felt that the sense of danger behind him gave him goosebumps all over his body.

"Really, let me do it, I'm proficient." Ji Cha was still persuading.

Others didn't know where Liang Jincheng was behind him, but he knew it. Once he knew it, he couldn't hide his flattery, so he almost put Liang Jincheng in the room and turned on the air conditioner as a mascot.

"Ji Cha," Liang Jincheng stopped, raised his head and asked him seriously, "Do you treat me as an outsider?"

"Huh?" Ji Cha was stunned by his question, and retorted subconsciously, "No."

Liang Jincheng then bowed his head to work without speaking.

Standing by the side, Ji Cha felt that he wanted to explain, but he didn't seem to know where to start, "I just think I'm better at work."

He faltered.

Liang Jincheng stopped his hands again, raised his hand to hold Ji Cha's wrist, and spread the blisters on his palm in the sun.

After the physical evidence was dug out, Ji Cha felt even more guilty. After withdrawing his hand, he couldn't stand here anymore. He ran back to the house in a hurry, and simply went to the livestock area through the other door of the factory building.

The chickens and ducks are basically in the free-range mode, and the daily feeding is simple, and the piglets and meat rabbits need to pay more attention.

Modern feeding methods are often large-scale factory management, and piglets do not get much exercise.Just like now, the piggies are full of food and drink, and are bored in the small pigsty. When Ji Cha comes, some turn their heads to look at him, and some continue to hum and hit the wall.

Ji Cha spread a lot of hay in the pigsty, and now it was stained with excrement, making it look very messy.The hay will be changed again after two days, and those that are stained with pig manure and urine will be taken out and put into the compost bin for composting, thus forming a chain in the cycle.

As for the meat rabbits, Ji Cha bought five-month-old rabbits.Before buying rabbits, he did some research on this breed of rabbits, and combined with what the farm technicians told him later, this breed of rabbits is usually sexually mature when they are five to six months old and can start breeding.

Generally, female rabbits can give birth for about three years, with four to five litters a year, and it is easy to give birth to ten in one litter.According to this way of life, Ji Cha felt that all white bunnies were falling down in front of his eyes.

Now the ratio of male rabbits to female rabbits in the rabbit cage is one to four, and the breeding scale is small. Ji Cha dare not use male rabbits as studs like in the breeding farm. One breeding fifty or something, he thinks about it I feel my scalp go numb.What's more, he doesn't have the technology of a farm.

Meat rabbits are white and fat, with pink ears, eyes and mouths, and they look cute.He walked over and took a closer look. The seven female rabbits were all grazing slowly, and only one female rabbit was nestling sleepily in the corner.

This is not already in heat, right?

Ji Cha was overjoyed, and went to open the cage to take the female rabbit out.The female rabbit has a very docile personality, so he held it motionless. Ji Cha remembered the words of the rabbit raising guide, turned the female rabbit over and looked at it, and found that the indescribable part was moist, and it was indeed in heat.

He couldn't help laughing, and happily put the female rabbit back gently, and stroked her back lightly, but when he turned his head to look at the male rabbits, he was a little worried: the female rabbit can give birth, the male rabbit Not ready yet.

Definitely have to wait here.

Ji Cha closed the rabbit cage and exited the rabbit house. He didn't pay attention when he turned around, and almost fell into Liang Jincheng's arms.
