Chapter 23: Raising Ducks in Rice Field

For ducks, it is rare. This time, Bai Yitian and his party did not stay here for a few days. After lunch on the same day, don't go back.

Zhou Bo scolded Xue Jian during his lunch break, "All day!"

Xue didn't take it seriously and said, "Nonsense? Why didn't you say that the white young master always bullied me? Now he bullied me without saying a word or words. I'm so miserable.

Zhou Bo was surprised and said, "Bully you? You said they won't bully you, who will they bully you? Who is not picking up stupid bullying!"

"Zhou Bo!" Xue saw that Zhou Bo's eyes widened, and his momentum immediately weakened: "Master Zhou Bo, Master Zhou, young master, master!"

"Say, what the hell do you have?" Seeing Xuejian pulling his arm and acting coquettishly, Zhou Bo couldn't help crying and laughing.

Xuejian tilted her head and said, "I'm going to say something wrong, Dalang, you can't scold me."

Every time I heard her shouting at Dalang so tiredly, I knew that she must have something to ask for, but Zhou Bo couldn't help softening in his heart, "Oak, I won't scold you, can I beat you?"

"I'm not thinking about it. Anyway, Bai Da Shao is also idle. Why don't you use it for me?" Xue Jian said slowly.

Zhou Bo frowned when he heard the words, "Take it for a use? What are these words? Zhou Bo showed a clear look of unhungibility.

----I knew that Zhou Bo was very easy to please. Anyway, he was not happy to say anything. Xue Jian spit out his tongue.

She sighed and said, "You know, that's what Xuejian means."

"You say you are stupid, but you still don't admit it!" Zhou Bo hated the iron and said, "The meaning is unclear."

Xuejian said with a wry smile, "Yes, yes, yes, Xuejian is stupid."

"It's not that I don't think you're stupid." Zhou Bo said, "You see, it's not your life, it's your life."

"Big, Lang," Xuejian said andly, "Xuejian, even if he is not stupid, makes you bully him stupid. You should usually..."

Zhou Bo didn't bother to listen at all and interrupted privately, "Since you have been like this, I will suffer it. I don't expect you to make progress."

"How can I say it, does Xuejian still have to thank you for the young master?" Xuejian had a headache and said, "I miss Xuejian. She is naturally born with a good temperament and virtuous temperament. What an excellent girl."

Zhou Bo lifted his eyelids and said, "Who are you talking about? Why does I sound strange?"

Xuejian pointed to herself lazily and said, "It's me, now I'm around you as a cow and a horse!"

Zhou Bo silently looked at Xue for a long time and said for a moment, "I just love you so much that I'm used to talking nonsense like this."

His words were interrupted by Xuejian. Xuejian said, "If Dalang really loves me, then I will talk nonsense that Dalang also loves me. If Dalang doesn't love me, I don't think Dalang will listen to me. So, who told Dalang to love me?

Zhou Bo had a headache and said, "Noisi!"

"Dalang," Xue said softly.

Squeeed her nose. Zhou Bo said, "Say it, tell me about your plan."

Xuejian muttered in Zhou Bo's ear for a long time. Zhou Bo felt her orchid breath, and his blood slowly boiled. He listened to Xuejian's incoherent thoughts absent-mindedly, but his hand slowly reached into Xuejian's middle clothes.

Xuejian took a breath, moaned, stopped and patted his hand and said, "Damn it, I'm telling you about business."

Zhou Bo sighed and said, "Your most important business is now," Xue Jian looked at him seriously with round eyes. He couldn't help laughing: "Your business is to grow up quickly." With the movement of his hand, how could Xue Jian not understand his hint?

Before Xue Jian blushed and cursed, Zhou Bo had turned over and kissed Xue Jian's fragrant red lips. Xue Jian struggled slightly. Zhou Bo moaned: "My legs..." Xue Jian did not dare to move again, and let him deepen the kiss deeper and deeper...

After dinner, Zhou Mancang and Dahu Duhai were called into the study.

Zhou Bo comprehensively sorted out Xuejian's ideas and told them to everyone slowly. There has never been such a precedent, so everyone didn't quite understand it at the beginning.

Zhou Bo didn't say much and let everyone digest this suggestion slowly. In fact, he also thought about it all afternoon. The more he thought about it, the more he liked it, and then he understood it.

It's clear, but the real veteran of the Tian family needs to be asked for the specific operation.

Everyone looked at a loss. Zhou Bo didn't say what the benefits were. They needed to be carefully tasted before they could come out.

This is a farmer's business. No matter how much Zhou Bo fantasizes, it's not as good as everyone's thoughts. So Zhou Bo picked up the tea and tasted it silently.

Speaking of which, Zhou Mancang is a good grain grower. Although Du Hai doesn't know anything about farming, he followed Master Zhou to do business in the north and south when he was a teenager, and he still had some insights.

Xue saw that after quietly served tea for everyone, she quietly stood behind Zhou Bo. Zhou Bo raised the corners of his mouth, and some people still look like this girl.

or Du Hai first asked hesitantly, "Regardless of the feasibility of raising ducks in this rice field, what the little man wants to ask is, young master, if you raise ducks in this field, don't take back your duck house at night. What if you run away?"

Dahu said, "It's easy to say that our family only borrows nets for fishing in winter. Now we buy a few more. Anyway, our family only has ten mu of land, and the edges are all surrounded by nets, and it doesn't cost much money."

"Uncle Hai asked well, and Dahu answered better!" Zhou Bo praised and said, "Look, you just said that you would call the big tiger to discuss farming, but Master Zhou, you still don't agree. Now you know that the big tiger is careful and lively."

Dahu scratched his head with embarrassment: "Is this method really feasible?" Seeing that everyone nodded and said yes, he said hesitantly, "It's just that what if the duck eats rice seedlings?"

Seeing that the tiger asked the key to the problem, Xue, who was serving the tea next to him, received Zhou Bo's encouraging eyes and replied with enthusiasm: "This is easy. Before the ducks go down to the field, try to sprinkle the grain into the shallow water and let the ducks peck, so that they form a conditioned reflex - um - that is, it forms a habit. If you get used to it and put them into the rice fields, they will take the initiative to find the ground grain.

Zhou Mancang, who had been silent for a long time, saw everyone looking at him. The old man pondered for a moment and smiled and said, "I really haven't heard of anyone using this method before."

Xue Jian said in her heart that duck farming in rice fields had just existed in China in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and later developed into rice fields to raise fish, crabs, shrimp and loach. Even if she didn't know how to raise it, it was enough for these ancients to think about it.

Crops like to hear good farming methods. The more the old slave thinks about this method, the more he thinks it's a good thing." The old man looked at Zhou Bo with bright eyes. "The young master is a capable person and can come up with such a wonderful good way. According to the old slave, there are really many benefits of raising ducks in this rice fields. Ducks can kill insects. Everyone knows that ducks can also weed. This is the old slave help when he was young. Only people know it by releasing ducks. The most important thing is to raise ducks and accumulate fat. This year, our rice is definitely much more than others' rice!"

The people in this family are naturally happy to go up to Zhou Bo and see snow. Although they don't know about farming, they know that this method can increase the yield per mu.

Du Hai calculated and smiled: "I don't know much about farming, but the villain thinks that the cost of raising ducks must be saved. Usually, he goes to the river to collect some small fish and shrimps that others don't want and put them into the rice fields. After a season, the duck doesn't cost a penny, and the duckling can sell a sum of money when it grows up."

Zhou Bo nodded and continued, "There is also this duck egg, which can be eaten and sold!"

"The young master is so right!" The big tiger said.

"When did you miss what the young master said?" Xue Jian squeezed her lips and interrupted with a smile.

Others just nodded, but Zhou Bo stared at her secretly and joked with everyone, "The young master only thinks that it depends on everyone to actually do it."

"The young master is too polite." Du Hai and others didn't know that this was Xue Jian playing Jifeng with Zhou Bo.

Next, while imagining the bright prospects for the future, you have replanned the plan to raise ducks in the rice field several times. The appearance of the duck house and the time of duck herding have gradually sorted out a clue. Of course, experience still needs to be accumulated in practice, so everyone has to spend Do this well with more energy than usual.

In less than half a month, Bai Yitian sent 80 ducks of Xuejian. The reason why Xuejian asked Bai Yitian for ducks is also for two purposes. First, the money saved by winter fishing and selling bear skins is limited. Of course, she can move less. Second, she can be sure that this method is Yes, so I also hope that it can be doubled back to Bai Yitian in autumn.

Zhou Bo didn't say anything about her idea. Xue Jian smiled and said, "I'm borrowing chickens to lay eggs and make money."

Point her excited little head, "You!" And corrected her: "It's a duck to lay eggs!"

Before the duck was delivered, the net on the edge of the rice field was also supported, and the four corners of each field were also covered with a ventilated and exquisite duck house, which was insisted by Xue Jian. The finer the duck house is, the lower the chance of the duck getting sick.

Soon, after feeding at home for a few days, the duckling was first put into the water in batches, and the big duck had to live a few days before it could be put in according to the batch.

It is the time when spring is warm and flowers are blooming. The spring competition in the village is blooming. The wild flowers on the mountains in the distance make Daqing Mountain look like a beauty in floral clothes.

Taking advantage of a holiday, he pushed Zhou Bo and took all the young ladies from the fifth mother to play by the field full of earthy fragrance.

Under the command of Xuejian, Wu Niang and Liulang went to the Daqing River beside the village without saying a word, picked up some small fish and shrimps that the villagers didn't want when fishing, and put them in the rice fields.

At the edge of the rice field, Qi Niang took the lead and took a few children to watch the ducks.

There is little entertainment in the village. When these ducklings were first sent home, Qi Niang took the initiative to take the task of feeding. The fluffy duckling shook their heads and followed Qi Niang running around in the warm spring breeze every day in the yard, which made people warm.

Now, how can the work of putting ducks into the rice field in batches be less than Qi Niang?

Qiniang's personality is the mildest of the Zhou family, with a round face and long eyelashes, bright eyes and teeth. In the outstanding Zhou family, she has a faint posture that surpasses everyone. I heard that among the children in the school, her grades are also the most outstanding, so she has always been liked by everyone. There are no villagers and children in the village who don't like her.

With Qi Niang here, the children in the village also slowly gathered around. For a moment, the sound of laughter and noise was endless. None of the villagers passing by stopped without laughter.

Xue Jian said, "Three or two branches welcome the spring by the field, and the spring river warms the duck prophet. Wild vegetables are full of mountain weeds and weeds are short, which is the time when mountain mushrooms are about to go up.

Bai Yitian laughed and said, "First the duck, then the wild vegetables and finally the mountain mushrooms. It turns out that Xue saw that the girl not only cooked the rice, but also the poetry was delicious."

"Spring River Water Warm Duck Prophet." Zhou Bo muttered, "Sure enough, it's a little interesting!"

Xue blushed, and this sentence was the original version, which was also captured by others.
