Chapter 863 Tips for Transplanting Rice

"Chao Gang, I'm optimistic, this is how farming is planted."

Half an hour later, Zhao Chaogang and Zhao Laogen had snacks and prepared the seedlings. When they arrived in the rice fields, Zhao Laogen began to teach Zhao Chaogang to plant rice.

With Zhao Chaogang's genius performance when he started seedlings, Zhao Laogen was very serious when he taught Zhao Chaogang to plant seedlings. He hoped that Zhao Chaogang could also be as talented as he did when he started seedlings. He would be very happy to teach these genius students, whether they are experts or experts or good planters in the fields.

"Well, Mr. Zhao, don't worry, I will watch it very seriously when I am beside me." Zhao Chaogang was very serious when he said this, which made Zhao Laogen very pleased.

Farming is not difficult, just plant the seedlings in the rice fields. In fact, there are still many tips here. If you don’t master these tips well, the seedlings planted in the fields will grow poorly, and the yield will be greatly reduced in this area, which will cause great losses for farmers.

Zhao Chaogang is a cultivator. Logically speaking, he doesn't have to do anything like farming, but Zhao Chaogang still does it. The essence of a cultivator is actually a human being. Only by completely integrating into ordinary people can cultivation be truly successful. If Zhao Chaogang can't even bend over and farm, what else can he say to integrate into ordinary people?

"That's good. Before planting rice seedlings, we have to see if the mud in this paddy field is appropriately turned, especially if all the mud inside has been broken. Only the broken mud can be suitable for the growth of rice seedlings. You see, these soils are very broken, and this kind of soil is suitable for the growth of rice."

Zhao Laogen directly took a handful of field mud from the field and showed it to Zhao Chaogang. Indeed, the handful of field mud was very broken and did not turn into lumps of mud.

"It is impossible to make the soil in the paddy field look like this without plowing two or three times. In the past, when plowing the fields, I used buffalo to plow the fields. It was impossible to plow acre of land without a half day. Now, with machinery, even dozens or hundreds of acres of land, you can plow the fields in half a day. Our family only took three hours to plow them completely. Hey! The technology development in this world is so fast!”

After Zhao Laogen said this, he couldn't help but sigh. Obviously, he was also surprised by the rapid development of technology. Of course, he also missed the time when people pulled and plowed at that time.

"Uncle Zhao, people always have to look forward, and society always develops forward. Maybe that era was indeed nostalgic, but life at that time was definitely not as good as it is now. I believe that you have the most experience of this Uncle Zhao. Do you think so?"

"Yes, Chao Gang, you are right. Although the time at that time was very missed by me, it was really hard than life now! Alas..., forget it, let's not talk about this anymore, we will focus on the present and farm."

Zhao Laogen ended his nostalgia for the past and began to teach Zhao Chaogang how to farm.

"Chaogang, before farming, you should throw the bundled seedlings into the field, and the dumping should be very even, so that you can get the seedlings when you farm later. When farming, first pick up the small bundles of seedlings thrown into the paddy field, then gently untie them, and put them in your left hand to start transplanting. Of course, if you are left-handed, put the seedlings into your right hand, and you should free up your hand to plant the seedlings.

Sprout transplanting is a laborious task, so you need to do it with your usual hands. In this way, it saves effort and time. Holding a handful of seedlings in your left hand, you quickly take out the divided seedlings from your left hand and start planting the seedlings. While planting the seedlings with your right hand, the thumb and middle finger of your left hand quickly "dividing the seedlings" from the seedlings in your hand (that is, splitting a small hand and then inserting the right hand into the seedling field).

When planting rice seedlings, you should plant them while retreating, keeping the width that can be planted about one meter wide. It is best to insert seedlings into the soil between 35 and 70 mm, and the plant spacing is within the range of 100 to 200 mm.

The seedlings planted by experienced farmers are very straight in horizontal or vertical direction. Look at the rice seedlings in the fields I just planted, whether horizontal or vertical, they are very straight. This not only makes the whole rice look very regular, but also makes it much more convenient to plant other seedlings and harvest rice.

When planting rice seedlings, you should also pay attention to moving your feet as little as possible in the field, because if the feet move more, there will be more footprints and more mud pits that will be stepped out. If a seedling is just inserted into the mud pit or edge, it may float to the water surface under the buoyancy of the water, and then there will be less seedlings at the footprints, so that the rice fields will reduce yield. For farmers, no food will be wasted."

While explaining the key points of transplanting rice to Zhao Chaogang, Zhao set an example to start planting rice seedlings in the rice fields. Although Zhao Laogen is already in his fifties and the movements of transplanting rice on his hands don’t seem to be fast, in less than a minute, Zhao Laogen has planted dozens of seedlings, all because Zhao Laogen can make perfect use of practice.

"Uncle Zhao, I really didn't expect that there would be so much knowledge in just a simple rice planting. I really underestimated the matter of rice planting before. However, after Mr. Zhao, I will not make any mistakes about rice planting again. If you have an old family, if you have a treasure, this sentence is really good."

Although Zhao Chaogang learned rice transplanting when he was a child, he only learned how to plant rice when he was watching his uncle, grandmother, mother and others. There was no detailed explanation like Zhao Laogen. This was the first time Zhao Chaogang heard the techniques of planting rice in detail.

"Hahaha, Chao Gang, that's fine if you can understand it. Come on, Chao Gang, you can try it, let me see if you have mastered the skills here."

Zhao Laogen was very satisfied with the praise of Zhao Chaogang. For people of his age, passing on some of his experiences in life to the next generation is the greatest comfort for him.

"Okay, Mr. Zhao, look at it!" Zhao Chaogang directly planted the seedlings. This time, Zhao Chaogang planted the seedlings very steadily. He firmly remembered what Zhao Laogen said, the little trick of planting seedlings is 35-70 mm and the plant spacing is within the range of 100-200 mm.

For ordinary people, it is impossible to plant seedlings every time they plant seedlings at a depth of 35 to 70 mm and the plant distance is within the range of 100 to 200 mm. It is impossible to do without long-term exercise, but for a cultivator Zhao Chaogang, it is a very simple thing.

Soon, a row of rice seedlings appeared in front of Zhao Laogen, with the depth of the seedlings and the distance between them just right, which made Zhao Laogen, a veteran who had been planting rice for decades, unable to find any problem.

"Chao Gang, you are really a genius in planting rice. But after hearing what the old man said, then I watched the old man planting seedlings for a while, your current skill in planting seedlings is not worse than that of me, the old man. I am really convinced that I am old. Now I really have to rely on you young people."

Zhao Laogen said with great sigh. This time he really felt that he was old.

"Uncle Zhao, you should enjoy the peace of mind now. Didn't you let your eldest son come here? All the work in the farmland will be left to your eldest son. Isn't it great if you and Aunt Zhao live a life of playing with grandchildren at home? Uncle Zhao, it's time to enjoy the peace of mind."

Zhao Laogen is only in his fifties now, but his appearance is not much better than that of a seventy-year-old man. He has been suffering for a lifetime and it is time to enjoy it.

"Oh, I've been fortunate enough to suffer all my life. If I get idle all of a sudden, I'm afraid I'll get a problem. Rural people are tired of their lives. In this life, I can't live without these paddy fields."

Zhao Laogen was very open-minded, but what he said was indeed the truth. Many elderly people in the countryside were in great health when working and had no problems, but once they were idle, those problems came to them instead.

Cancer, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease and other elderly diseases come to the door. If such a thing really happens, it would be better to continue working in the field.

"Uncle Zhao, if you are really afraid of getting into trouble, you can learn some health-preserving martial arts. There are many such martial arts in the jade pagoda, and the purchase contribution is not high. After learning these health-preserving martial arts, Uncle Zhao can prolong your life. In the future, you can also have more time to accompany your family and enjoy a happy life."

"Haha, I want to learn some health-preserving martial arts, but it will be impossible for at least three or four years in our family. However, since I am already in the martial arts secret realm, I will definitely learn some martial arts, otherwise I will come to the martial arts secret realm for nothing!" When it comes to martial arts, Zhao Laogen's eyes were full of yearning.

"Mr. Zhao, your wish will definitely come true. I also want to have a banquet for your 100th birthday!"

Zhao Chaogang has decided to send someone a set of martial arts secrets for health preservation. This is the reward for their group to trouble Zhao Laogen's family for so much time.

"Haha, then I'll get a good word from Chao Gang. By then, I really want to live to be 100 years old. I will definitely ask Chao Gang to have a good drink, haha..."

Zhao Chaogang's words of the century-old birthday made Zhao Laogen happy. At his age, he thought of longevity.

"Chao Gang, come quickly. There are lees here. Some children have lees on their legs. Chao Gang, come quickly."

Zhao Chaogang wanted to say something to Zhao Laogen, but Liu Jingjing's loud shouts over there made Zhao Chaogang run towards Liu Jingjing. After Zhao Laogen heard this, he followed Zhao Chaogang to run towards Liu Jingjing. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
