Chapter 115
The end of the world 106
"Black Tiger, wait for me, wait, wait for me!"
A tall and powerful German shepherd ran happily in the grass, chasing a teenager in a dark blue coat and a black hat behind him. The teenager was about fifteen or sixteen years old, had grown to 1.7 meters tall, and was thin, chasing the German shepherd in front of him with two long legs.
De Mu did not stop hearing the young man's shouting and kept running forward. Just then, two wolves came up behind the teenager. The two wolves crossed the teenager and caught up with the de shepherd in front of him.
Then, the three big dogs fluttered at each other and had a good time.
The teenager finally caught up with three big dogs, but he was exhausted. He bent down, put his hands on his knees and kept panting: "You, you, you are too much... Next time I do this, I won't come out to slip you, or I will tie the rope, or I will never slip again."
The three big dogs listened and ran around the teenager one after another, and did not stop squatting their heads and bodies to rub his legs.
"I tell you, I don't act coquettishly. Besides, look at yourself, the strong men of the five and the three, are you embarrassed to be coquettish?" The teenager masturbated the heads of the three big dogs fiercely before he took a deep breath and calmed down.
The teenager was about to play with three dogs for a while when a military vehicle came not far away from the road.
The teenagers and big dogs didn't care, but still played together.
This valley is very large. From here to the east, there are garrison farms, so military vehicles often pass by, so teenagers think that this military vehicle passes by here to the garrison farm as usual.
However, the military vehicle did not pass directly as usual, but stopped at the fork of the road.
Two people got out of the car.
Just then, the three dogs who had been playing with the teenager suddenly ran to the two people like crazy, shouting while running.
The teenager seemed to suddenly remember something. He quickly turned around and ran back. As he ran, he shouted loudly, "Aunt-in-law, Brother Jiang Yu, here we are coming!"
"Aunt-in-law and Jiang Yu are coming. Come out quickly!"
With the shouts of the teenager, a large group of people ran out of all corners.
"Tianyi, do you think Xiaoxue and Jiang Yu are here?" Uncle Tang was carrying a handful of hay. He was cleaning up the hay. Hearing Tang Tianyi's shout, he immediately ran back from the ground.
"Yes, I'm back, right in the back."
A group of people hurried to the intersection and ran to meet them.
Tang Xue and Jiang Yu got off the military vehicle, and they said goodbye to the military car that took them along the way. Before I finished saying goodbye, I heard familiar calls.
"Wow, woof, woof."
"Wow, Wang."
When the two turned around, they saw three dogs running over like wind and lightning.
"Black tiger, safe and auspicious!"
The three dogs rushed to Tang Xue and kept circling around her legs. The black tiger raised her forelegs and put them on her hand, and his whole body stood upright.
"Hahaha, all right, you are so enthusiastic."
Seeing the black tiger rushing on her, the other two dogs also wanted to pounce on her, which was so scared that she quickly put down the black tiger. Her little body couldn't help but pounce on three big dogs together.
Jiang Yu quickly hugged the two wolf green heads and dragged them away.
"Xiao Xue, Jiang Yu!"
The two looked up and saw the family members of the farm coming towards them, waving to them as they walked.
Tang Xue and Jiang Yu looked at each other and smiled, and the two gathered with three dogs.
"Brother, Sister Tang Xue, you are here!"
Jiang Chen rushed over first. He jumped up directly and hugged Jiang Yu, and the two hugged each other tightly.
After the death of his parents, Jiang Chen was brought up by Jiang Yu, and the two had a deep relationship. The two had never been separated for so long before the transfer.
Jiang Yu raised his hand and hugged Jiang Chen tightly and patted him on the back. "How are you doing these days?" Is there anything that doesn't work?"
Jiang Chen blinked and blinked off the fog in her eyes: "I'm fine. Everyone takes good care of me. There is nothing unaccustomed to it. The environment here is good, the air is good, and the place is spacious. It couldn't be better."
"Xiao Xue, you are here. We are all worried to death. We are looking forward to you coming every day. How are you on our way here? There is no danger, are you? Where are your parents? The eld aunt took Tang Xue's hand and asked as she walked.
"Uncle, aunt, don't worry. We came very well. My parents and they were also very good. They followed their respective units to the city. When the resettlement was settled, they would come and have a look."
The group chatted while walking and walked back along the path.
The land officially allocated to Tang Xue and Jiang Yu is in a valley. The valley is very large, and a stream passes through the valley.
This valley is not all theirs. They only have a small part, about 100 acres. The land opposite their farm and streams is divided into the garrison, and the garrison land goes eastward, which is a planting base.
The farm was closer to the planting base this time, and the Tang Dynasty walked there every day to work.
To the west of their location is the territory of the local indigenous people. Of course, many C city residents who have just moved in have also been arranged, most of whom are rural residents of City C.
After the settlement is settled, the authorities will also arrange competent residents to cultivate.
Tang Xue was very satisfied with the size and location of the farm. She leaned against the garrison and the official fields, and the sense of security soared.
Dinner, in order to celebrate the return of the two, Aunt Li and others showed their skills and cooked two good dishes.
There are a lot of wild vegetables in spring, and their aunts picked a lot early in the morning. Aunt Li washed the wild vegetables and blanched them and cooled them with eggs. I took out a air-dried rabbit brought over and roasted a rabbit and braised potatoes.
There are not many opportunities to eat hot food on the way to transfer. Tang Xue and Jiang Yu have not had a chance to eat a normal diet for a long time.
Everyone ate in a lively circle. You chatted with one word and thought about the future life, which was very happy.
Jiang Yu was pulled by Zhou Jinhua Delong and others to talk about what he saw and heard on the way and what they knew about the area during this period.
Uncle Tang and Uncle Li talked about the work they were going to do tomorrow, complaining that the land here was too desolate, not only desolate but also barren, and not fertile at all.
Jiang Chen and Tang Tianyi, two foodies, discussed tonight's meal. Both of them felt that braised potatoes with rabbit tasted great. Especially after the potatoes are full of oil, the powder is glutinous, which is even more delicious than rabbit meat. I fantasize about when I can eat delicious food every day.
Aunt Li and Aunt Qi are talking about how everyone should sleep at night, how to arrange it if there are two more people, and need to take a few more bedding down.
Looking at everyone's lively face, the delicious food in front of her, and the constantly jumping flames in the stove next to her, Tang Xue couldn't help but feel warm.
Fireworks in the world are the most soothing of mortals.
What she has been longing for is what she is now.
---
I stayed up all night, and it was dawn.
"Oh, oh, oh!"
The sound of the big rooster sounded on time. The big rooster in charge of the chore was loud and magnificent, and a chicken's crooster crowed unexpectedly played the momentum of symphony.
"Okay, okay, stop shouting, get up." Aunt Li put on her clothes, opened the curtain and shouted at the rooster.
After Aunt Li made a sound, the big rooster stopped shouting very spiritually.
The wake-up bell has rang, and everyone on the farm has got up one after another.
Tang Xue got dressed, opened the curtains and walked out.
In the early morning in the valley, the air is fresh. The sky is as pure as a huge sapphire. Snow can still be seen on distant peaks, and snow-white peaks are rolling continuously.
The scenery in the valley is more beautiful. Although the chill has not completely faded at this time, the peach blossoms have bloomed. The peach trees in the valley are all wild peaches, so they are unevenly distributed and irregular.
Most of the varieties of wild peach trees are mulch. The trees are tall and thick, but the flowers are very small. Most of the colors are pink or crimson, but they bloom very densely, layer by layer, layer by layer.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, the vast land is dotted with a piece of pink, which is romantic and beautiful.
It's peach blossoms again. They are really predestined with peach blossoms. The former flower dock farmer was peach blossoms, but I didn't expect to have the same beautiful scenery when I came here.
Maybe when the farm is built, they can also erect the signboard of Huawu Farm again.
"Sneeze!"
I enjoyed the beautiful scenery and forgot that the temperature in the morning was relatively low.
On this morning, the cold wind was still a little cold, and she went back to the tent and added a dress.
Tent? Yes, tent.
There are no houses on the land belonging to her and Jiang Yu. Only the car they drove and a tent stood at the foot of the mountain.
This tent is very ethnic. Obviously, it was not brought by the farm people from City C, but in exchange for materials from them and the local indigenous people.
After the farmers arrived here, they settled down at first, and then tried to contact the indigenous people.
The indigenous people are burly and strong, and they don't seem to get along well with. But when we really get along with each other, I find that they are bold, hospitable, but shrewd.
When they arrived here, they changed a lot of things from the indigenous people. For example, the living tent and the sounding rooster.
The chickens brought from City C died soon after coming. They don't know the specific reason. It may be that they are unconvinced or sick.
So they exchanged three local chickens from the indigenous people.
It is said that this kind of chicken is unique to this area. It can adapt to harsh environments such as the cold. It is small and tight in muscles. It is usually free-range and very nourishing.
Although there are about 100 acres of land officially allocated to her and Jiang Yu, they are all wasteland, or uncultivated land.
I guess there is nothing we can do. After all, City C is an outsider, and it is impossible for the aborigines to give them the cultivated farmland directly. Therefore, if you want to farm, you can only reclaim the wasteland.
Not only her land and Jiang Yu are wasteland, but also the land of garrison and planting bases.
Of these 100 mu of land, there are not so many that can be reclaimed into farmland. She carefully estimated that it is only about 60 mu, and the rest of the land is not suitable for reclamation into farmland.
In addition to this, she also found that even if it can be cultivated, there are great problems with soil quality. Planting directly for fear that the yield will be very low.
Therefore, the first thing she has to do now is to find a way to change the soil.

Chapter 116
The end of the world 107
After breakfast, Tang Xue followed Uncle Li and others to the ground.
After being settled here, everyone on the farm began to reclaim the wasteland, thinking about reclaiming it early before planting it earlier. Food is fundamental these days, and you can't eat all the time. How large the population of the farm is? If there is no input, no matter how much grain is stored, it can't help but be consumed.
So before Tang Xue came, they had begun to cultivate wasteland, and even planted some vegetables on the cultivated land. It may be due to land or seeds. Vegetables are not growing well.
Tang Xue looked at the land they had reclaimed, and the soil quality was really not good. The organic matter content of this land is low, the ground is not very flat, and the texture is rough, and it must be improved before it can be planted.
Traditional methods to improve soil quality usually use sticky sand and sand mixes. If the soil is too viscous, an appropriate amount of coarse sand can be added during the deep rollover process (avoid building fine sand). If the soil is too sandy, an appropriate amount of new soil or silt should be added.
At the same time, more organic fertilizer should be applied. Then plant legumes for a year to increase fertilizer before other crops can be planted normally.
Therefore, according to the traditional method, it is not possible to completely change the soil quality overnight.
And she doesn't want to use traditional methods, which is not only troublesome but also takes a long time.
She improves soil by making specific soil improvers and then mixing them into arable land.
This is an improved method developed in her dream with the help of Akato.
In order to explore specific improvers, she experimented with Akato countless times and failed countless times before she finally developed a method of improving the soil with a modifier.
After using soil improvers, it can completely improve the soil structure, increase fertility, increase water locking capacity, adjust pH, improve soil temperature, and prevent fertility loss and leakage.
Another very good feature of the soil improvers she made is that they are all made of natural materials, which are basically made on-site materials without extra money.
After she has finished improving the soil quality of her farm, she will write an improvement report and submit it to the official, with comparative data before and after the land improvement.
After the relocation of City C, 70% of the allocated land was abandoned. Unsurprisingly, more than 80% of it needed to be improved.
Although she is eager to contribute to her soil improvement methods, which can help the people of City C and even people in other cities grow faster, it is difficult to adopt without proof and detailed factual data.
Because the methods she uses are very different from traditional methods of improvement, and the land here used to be improved by traditional methods.
From this day on, Tang Xue began to take the farm people to make soil improvers according to the soil needs of different plots, and then mix them into the land.
Everyone on the farm is quite convinced of her decision. Everyone will do what she asks everyone to do unconditionally.
"How did you cultivate these lands?" She asked Uncle Tang.
"We used to rent cows from indigenous families to come back for cultivation." Uncle Tang replied.
"The speed of cattle farming is too slow. You have to use a arable land truck or a tiller."
In order to complete the soil improvement plan as soon as possible, she decided to apply to the government for a arable land truck to arable land. The cow is so slow that she doesn't have much time.
"The official should also be busy cultivating the land now. Will there be a arable land truck for renting to you?" Uncle Tang asked worriedly. He also knows that it must be faster to use machinery, but at this time, he is afraid that machinery is not easy to rent.
"Try it, in case you have time."
Fortunately, the application she submitted was quickly approved, and the next day, a arable land truck came to help them cultivate the land.
This arable truck actually came from the planting base. Why do you say so? Because it was sent by colleagues from the Tang Dynasty and his mechanical team of his logistics department.
She and Jiang Yu stood by the land to be reclaimed and saw a arable truck coming from the east road. Before the car arrived, the sound of the car was heard from afar.
The arable car drove until the two stopped not far away.
The Tang Dynasty jumped off the arable land truck and laughed and said, "Hahaha, when I received the notice, I thought I had read it wrong and specially confirmed it twice. Unexpectedly, it was sent to my own home. It's not too amazing to go to my own home on a business trip."
Colleagues from the Ministry of Machinery also got out of the car to greet Jiang Yu and her.
"I didn't expect that it was transferred from the base. Doesn't the base need arable land recently?" She asked curiously.
She and Jiang Yu have not officially returned to the base to work, and they don't know much about the specific situation of the current base.
Because they are the last people to transfer and have a week's vacation. They won't officially resume work until a week's rest.
"Yes, why not? It's just that the land has almost been cultivated. I just left it in my spare today. I guess I will be pulled to another place later. Otherwise, if you are lucky, you happen to be in a hurry to apply for this gap." Tang Dynasty explanation.
"Then I'm so lucky this time."
"It's really good."
"Then please ask you today." Jiang Yu patted the arm of the mechanical team employee.
"No problem, don't worry."
The arable land truck drove into the wasteland domineeringly, and under the action of tail machinery, the soil was easily turned up.
The problem of arable land was solved, and Tang Xue continued to work on soil improvers.
At noon, Aunt Li and others cooked.
"Come back for dinner!"
The eldest aunt shouted the lion's roar, and the group of people who were busy in the field heard it.
The three big dogs reacted the fastest. As soon as they heard the aunt's shout, they knew it was time for lunch. The three big dogs took the lead in running back.
Nie Hu followed the crowd back and saw the three dogs in front of him who were energetic at eating, and his face was confused.
He raised his hand and scratched his scalp and asked the Wardrom around him, "Why do I think these three are becoming more and more evolving towards foodies?"
Wardrom asked, "Isn't it already a foodie?" As soon as I heard the meal, I ran faster than anyone else!"
"Hee hee." Nie Hu giggled twice with some embarrassing. Obviously, it was not like this before.
In the past, these three were as cold as they were. Why do they become, um, what adjectives should be used now?
Oh, yes, stupid!
With a tall and powerful figure, he always likes to be coquettish around his favorite people.
"Do you have to find a chance to practice? If you have the opportunity to meet local dogs, don't you have to show timidity? Can you beat it?"
Local dogs are notoriously fierce and aggressive.
Nie Hu wondered that it was time to retrain the three dogs.
The place is limited, and everyone can only eat outside. Open the awning of the welded body of the bus and barely have a place to block the sun.
Aunt Li, they have brought the meal to the shed.
As before, find your own bowl.
Sitting down the shed, everyone carried their own rice bowl and sat down at any place to eat.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew and a piece of dust blew up.
Everyone's eyes were fast, and they raised their hands and bowed their heads to protect the bowl in front of them.
My colleagues in the logistics department who came with the Tang Dynasty did not react and were directly blown up with a mouthful of dust.
"Cough, cough, cough." A colleague in the logistics department narrowed his eyes and couldn't help coughing twice.
Fortunately, in times of crisis, he raised his hand to protect the bowl, otherwise he would have to eat dirt later.
Their place is at the foot of a mountain, and behind them is a mountain.
This mountain is also a barren mountain. There is little vegetation on the mountain. There is only a layer of vegetation on the top of the mountain, and there is bare soil and stones elsewhere.
Therefore, it often happens that a strong wind blows by and raises a piece of dust.
Everyone on the farm has lived here for some time. It is familiar with this situation, and even three dogs can cope with it.
Tang Xue and Jiang Yu experienced it yesterday that only colleagues in the logistics department are newcomers. If they don't respond fast enough, they will inevitably be tricked.
Jiang Chen got up and walked out for a few steps and began to pull his long hair.
It hasn't been cut for a long time, and it has grown to the point of non-mainstream.
"When can we build a house? Every time we eat, we come here once." Jiang Chen complained.
"Yes, it's time to build a house. It's not easy to sleep at night. Just squeeze a bed with my father every day. The snoring sound of sleeping at night is like a symphony. Now it falls and I can't sleep." The Tang Dynasty also echoed.
After hearing this, Uncle Tang rolled his eyes: "It seems that you don't snore."
"Dad, your snoring is also loud." Tang Tianyi immediately dismantled the platform.
"Nonsense, I only snore when I'm very tired." The Tang Dynasty refuted hard and resolutely refused to admit its snoring sound.
"I testify that your purr is really loud!" Jiang Chen raised his hand and made a knife.
The Tang Dynasty looked at Jiang Chen and his son Tang Tianyi with a sad face.
"You disappoint me so much!"
Jiang Yu said, "It's time to build a house, otherwise it won't be easy to eat, sleep or bathe."
At present, there are only two places where they can live, one is a tent and the other is a bus.
Men live in buses, and ladies live in tents.
But there are a large number of men on the farm. Obviously, it is very inconvenient to live on a bus. They are in urgent need of a house now.
Another important thing to solve is that they don't have water and electricity here now.
The electricity used is an outdoor mobile power supply, imported goods, and charged with solar panels. The daily lighting time here is very long and there is plenty of solar energy, so the needs of daily life can be fully met.
Drinking water has always relied on water purification devices. Although it is no problem in a short time, it is not a long-term solution.
We must also find a way to get water and electricity.
At present, it seems that the best way is to connect water and electricity from the aboriginal residential area. The aboriginal settlements are not far from here, only 600 or 700 meters away. If you want to pass through there, it should not be a big problem.
I just don't know if the water and electricity are turned on, how will this fee be calculated? Is it paid by the official or by themselves?
If you want them to come out by themselves, I guess it will take some time.
You have to build a house and have to turn on water and electricity. The cost is a little high and can't stand it.
Tang Xue has something to realize in his space, but at present, there is no suitable opportunity to take it out.
She wondered if she would find a chance to go out.
Look for the dream market.
There is a fixed-time market here, a bit like a rural rush market. It is spontaneous non-governmental organizations trading materials, usually for things for things.
This kind of market is legal.
In R City, there are three such bazaars, which are held at different times, some once a month and some once every half a month.
I don't know how far it is from the nearest market. Maybe you can ask the local indigenous people to explore.
