"There's nothing we can do. It's too cold here at the beginning of the year. Peng Dong is already struggling. There's nothing we can do here."
"When you say long sunshine, do you mean long days? It gets dark later here than in Pengdong. That's good, this way I can take a shower and eat before it gets dark, which is convenient."
Everyone was chatting and asking questions one after another. After the meal, everyone started to fetch water and wash clothes.
Chunxiao and the others returned to the main courtyard. "It's late today, and you've been busy all day and must be tired. I'll go up the mountain tomorrow to take a look. It won't be too late to talk on the slope tomorrow if we have anything to say."
"Okay." Nineteen also took the basin and went to wash clothes.
On the second day, Chunxiao and Xiaohua followed everyone up the mountain. As soon as Chunxiao got up the mountain, he found something wrong. There were no insects, but the stems of the cotton leaves were not thick enough.
"This cotton should have been fertilized with foliar fertilizer twice by now." It wouldn't be right if it had been.
When Nineteen heard this, his face turned worried. "Boss, I only applied for it once. I tried hard to harvest it several times, but each time I only got a few boxes of eggshells. The village also harvested a lot of eggs, but we have too many acres and it's not enough."
This leaf fertilizer is a big deal, and there's still a chance to remedy the situation. "Today, take your men to each town and village and collect some eggs for me. Do you have a mill in our village? If not, go buy a couple of big ones. Go quickly. Oh, and do you still have some grass ash for making leaf fertilizer?"
"Everything else is available."
"Hurry up and go. If the leaf fertilizer is delayed, it will not be a matter of dozens of taels of silver. I will talk to you about this later." Nineteen, how much can you collect from egg shells? Most of them are reluctant to spend money to buy eggs and waste them, which almost delayed the important matter.
Nineteen hurriedly took a few people and drove the ox cart out of the village.
Chunxiao went to see the reservoir again and found that there was water inside. "Is this the water stored after the rain or the water carried up?" Chunxiao asked the people on the mountain.
"Half of it was stored previously, and the other half was carried here. When the weather is hot, the cotton fields are watered once every ten days or so in the early morning, so not much water is used."
The frequency of watering was just right. The people who went up the mountain were pruning branches and catching insects at the same time. Seeing Chunxiao watching from the side, two women were a little trembling with fear. "Dong, Dong, the manager told us to prune this branch. He said that pruning it this way will make it grow better."
"Nice cut."
When they heard that Chunxiao not only did not blame them but praised them, they immediately smiled and said that what they learned should be correct, so why did they feel guilty? Fortunately, they did the right thing in front of the boss.
Chunxiao searched for a long time and found that except for Ye Fei, there was nothing wrong with the others. She felt a little relieved.
