Chapter 45 Teaching Experience
Before dinner was over, Zhao Dahai hurried over.
"San'er, I heard from our family construction that you have a way to increase the production of sticks?" Zhao Dahai yelled as soon as he entered the door.
No need to guess, it must be Zhao Jianshe who went home and taught his father what Xu Shiyan said on the mountain.
Who is Zhao Dahai? Being able to be the secretary of the brigade all these years is not for nothing.
As soon as I heard what Zhao Jianshe said, I knew it was feasible.
But Zhao Jianshe didn't understand what was going on, so Zhao Dahai hurried over without even eating.
"Uncle, have you eaten yet? Sit down and eat something together. Yingzi, bring some bowls and chopsticks for our uncle." Xu Shiyan smiled and beckoned Zhao Dahai to sit down.
How could Zhao Dahai be in the mood to eat? Now he just wants to know about the ginseng fertilization.
"Nephew and daughter-in-law don't be so busy, I came over for dinner at home. San'er, tell me quickly, how is this thing fixed?"
Xu Shiyan dragged Zhao Dahai to sit down, poured him a glass of water, and then talked in detail about ginseng fertilization.
The bean cakes are crushed, mixed with water and trichlorfon, piled together and fermented.
Ferment to a certain extent, take it outside and spread it out to dry.
Before planting ginseng in autumn, mix the fermented bean cake powder with some trichlorfon and other insecticides as base fertilizer.
When planting ginseng, it is necessary to dig a small furrow. You can sprinkle the base fertilizer in the furrow, cover it with a layer of soil, then plant ginseng, and cover it with soil.
The bean cake water for topdressing is even simpler. Pour the bean cake powder into a large tank or pond, add water to ferment and fertilize, and remember to kill insects during the process.
After the frozen ginseng has been weeded twice, pour bean cake water in the small ditch in the middle of each row of ginseng, and then cover with soil.
"Actually, deer dung is also a good fertilizer, and it can be used as a base fertilizer after fermenting. It's a pity that we don't have a deer farm here, so we can't get it."
Xu Shiyan didn't hide it either, and told Zhao Dahai everything he knew.
"Adding top-dressing fertilizer to the base fertilizer, it's like playing with the increase of six or seven catties per foot. If it catches up with the soil, it's normal to add twenty-five or six catties to the soil."
When Xu Shiyan was serving the land in his previous life, it was not impossible for him to weigh thirty-five or sixty-five catties.
As long as the seeds planted are big enough, the soil is good enough to support the seedlings, the fertilizer and water supply is sufficient, and the management keeps up, high yields are still possible.
Of course, at that time, science and technology were advanced, and some diseases could be prevented and controlled.
It's not like now, all pointing to God to enjoy the meal, it's completely incomparable.
"Oh, you said you have such a good trick, why didn't you say it before?" Zhao Dahai heard it and slapped his thigh.
If the Dongjiangyan brigade had used this method a few years earlier, wouldn’t the big guy’s life be better?
"Uncle, I heard this from someone on the train when I went to Tonghua a few days ago." Xu Shiyan made an excuse casually.
"In the seat next to us, there are two technicians who don't know who participated in the scene. They were discussing this matter in the car, and I listened to it."
Xu Shiyan can't say, these are the experiences I summed up in my previous life, right?
Zhao Dahai came to a sudden, "No wonder, I just said that you are not the one who hides and hides your personality. If you have something good, why don't you tell me?"
It turns out that I heard what others said, so that's right.
"I definitely won't be in a rush this year. Next year, let's set up some experimental grounds and try as you said."
Zhao Dahai is cautious in doing things, naturally he refuses to take risks, and plans to set up an experiment site of several tens of feet, if it really works.
"I'll let you be a technician when the time comes, I think you'll do it." Zhao Dahai patted Xu Shiyan on the shoulder and said full of expectation.
Xu Shiyan smiled, "That's not necessary, I'm also a member of the team, and besides, it's just the way it sounds."
Xu Shiyan didn't care about technicians.
After all, he has already made up his mind to move away. He doesn't know if he can stay in Dongjiangyan next year. He doesn't covet any technicians.
Zhao Dahai sat here for a while, it was getting late, so he said goodbye and left.
When Zhao Dahai left, Su Anying was full of doubts, "When we went to Tonghua, was there someone talking about this? Why don't I remember?"
Xu Shiyan raised his hand and rubbed his wife's face, "Not long after you got in the car, you slept like a pig. What do you know?"
Su Anying fell asleep in the car for a long time because of the pregnancy reaction, which was already lacking energy, and the long train ride was too boring. Unexpectedly, at this time, her husband would make fun of her, she was immediately ashamed and annoyed, and raised her hand to pinch Xu Shiyan.
"Okay, how dare you laugh at me?"
"No, I'm not kidding you. In my eyes, even if you are a little pig, you are the most beautiful one."
Xu Shiyan smiled and held his daughter-in-law's hand, and with a strong effort, he hugged her in his arms, and both of them laughed.
Dongjiangyan Brigade started to participate in the production of more than 500 feet this year, and only got up to 200 feet on the first day, so they will go for a few more days.
It was still the forty young men who went up the mountain to lift the clubs, and another dozen strong young men were selected to work in the warehouse, mainly carrying the steamer, lighting the fire, and watching the fire.
The girls and daughters-in-law who work better in the village are selected to work in the house.
The ginseng trees are washed white and clean, just like little dolls, which is very rare.
The washed ginseng is neatly placed in the large cage, which can be placed in several layers, and then a few strong young men will lift the cage to the cauldron with twelve seals.
The cage drawer is covered, and a large piece of leather made of several pieces of cowhide is found to cover it, and the bottom is tied firmly to prevent air leakage.
The bottom of the pot is on high heat, and the fire is turned off after two hours after the pot is boiled, and then simmered for another hour, untie the rope, remove the cowhide, and open the lid of the cage.
A stream of steamed ginseng's unique aroma floats out along with the heat.
Freshly steamed ginseng is slightly yellow, and when it is dried, it will turn into a yellowish red, so it is called red ginseng.
The cage drawer was opened, and the hot air dissipated, and several young men carried it to the side layer by layer.
When the ginseng was completely cool, a group of young daughters-in-law picked it up gently and placed it on the fork.
This fork is not a fork for eating, but a tool similar to a sieve.
A wooden frame that is 1.45 meters long and less than 1 meter wide, with a layer of Artemisia stalks neatly tied to the bottom.
It is ventilated and breathable, and it will not rust easily like barbed wire. It is best used to dry ginseng.
Steamed ginseng is soft and waxy, and the worker must handle it carefully, otherwise it will be easily broken if the hands are heavy.
Put the ginseng on the fork from head to tail. When the fork is full, someone at the other end will take it away.
There are a lot of shelves in the yard, and the forks full of ginseng are placed on the shelves, and the ginseng is dried in the sun.
Of course, if it is rainy, it will be sent to the drying room.
There is a large kang inside the drying room, and a large pot for steaming ginseng is connected to the outside.
In addition to the kang, there are two stoves in the middle of the ground. When the stove is lit, the heat of the kang can also dry ginseng.
It is only dried ginseng, the color is dark, not as bright as the sun-dried ginseng, so as long as conditions permit, most of them are still dried outside.
