Chapter 133 Planting Carrots
The shed that Jiang Linhai and everyone else had built to temporarily mix concrete was torn into pieces, leaving a mess.
As the temperature rises, these snow monkeys become more and more arrogant.
Shen Baoying was a little angry, "These monkeys are so annoying!"
Jiang Si smiled and said, "We didn't lose much. It's just like us going to their territory to pull radishes and catch fish. They are just returning the favor."
Shen Baoying was amused by Jiang Si's words, "Then we won't go there in the future, they can't come over again."
Jiang Linhai couldn't help laughing. "A bunch of monkeys, how can they listen to you? I think if they get benefits, they will definitely come more often."
Zhang Qingfang looked at the snow where radish seedlings had been planted and said, "We dug up all the radish seedlings that didn't survive. If we want to expand our field to plant radishes, we have to find a way to prevent these monkeys from coming back to eat them."
Jiang Si glanced at Dahei and Xiaohei, who were already in a gradually colder climate. "Once the greenhouse is repaired, Dahei and Xiaohei can stay in the greenhouse to guard it."
Hearing Jiang Si calling their names, Dahei and Xiaohei wagged their tails happily, their eyes sparkling as if to say, it depends on them.
Zhang Qingfang patted their heads and said happily, "Good dogs, I'll leave them to you from now on."
Rebuild the igloo and shed.
The men continued to build the greenhouse, while Jiang Si followed Zhang Qingfang and Shen Baoying to plant radishes in the farmland.
It is extremely difficult to turn over the frozen land.
Fortunately, they had an icebreaker, which they used to chisel aside the ground after clearing the snow, and the soil mixed with broken ice was turned out.
But this is not enough to ensure adequate nutritional growth of the seedlings.
Zhang Qingfang aimed at the trees that were crushed by the snow.
If it is burned, it becomes natural wood ash.
Knowing that Jiang Si and the others were going to move trees, Jiang Linhai asked Qin Shen to put his work aside and went to help them.
Qin Shen is very strong, so moving a few trees is a piece of cake for him.
After a while, the transport truck was almost smashed.
Jiang Si hasn't even moved a finger yet.
Even if Qin Shen had selfish motives in following them, up to now, it seemed like they were the ones taking advantage.
Qin Shen can still live well without them.
After unloading, Qin Shen looked at her and asked, "Do you want to chop wood?"
Jiang Si shook his head, "No, just light it directly."
Qin Shen nodded, and without taking a break, he went to build the greenhouse again.
Jiang Si glanced around, grabbed his hand, stood on tiptoe, and kissed him on the cheek, "Don't be too tired, take your time."
Qin Shen looked at her for a few seconds, then suddenly reached out and hugged her, saying in her ear, "Okay."
The low, magnetic voice was like the wind in the valley, melodious and quiet, sending a stream of electricity through her heart.
Jiang Si curled the corners of his mouth and watched him leave.
Shen Baoying and Zhang Qingfang looked at each other and smiled.
There is ice on the surface of these trees, which makes them difficult to ignite.
But Jiang Si had plenty of fuel stored, so he just poured two buckets on it and added some ignition materials, and soon the trees were burning.
The raging fire melted the surrounding snow.
The trees burned until nightfall, when they were finally burned out.
The wood ash left behind is the best natural fertilizer.
The large amount of salt contained in wood ash will also make the soil less likely to freeze.
The next day, Jiang Si followed Zhang Qingfang to plow the soil again.
The soil has become much softer than before.
They dug some holes and transplanted the radish seedlings from the greenhouse on the icebreaker.
Suddenly coming out of the greenhouse, the radish seedlings became like eggplants hit by frost and wilted in a short while.
However, Zhang Qingfang did not give up.
The radish seedlings that Jiang Linhai had transplanted casually before had grown up without him taking any care of them.
The radish seedlings that have been carefully cared for this time can only grow bigger and bigger.
Fearing that the monkeys would come and attack again today, Zhang Qingfang directly suggested sleeping in the igloo. "The igloo has everything in it anyway. It's fine for your grandfather and I to live in it. We have Big Black and Little Black to keep us company."
She was so eager to grow this radish because she wanted to provide food for humans to survive in the extreme cold.
If there were people around them again in the future, they would not behave crazily for supplies.
As long as they have food to eat and clothes to wear, humans will stop killing each other.
This is how Zhang Qingfang and Jiang Chengwu understand it.
But no matter what era, inequality in resources will cause disputes.
It depends on whether they have the strength to suppress it.
However, Zhang Qingfang's idea is also correct.
With Qin Shen around, they could be alert to danger at any time. Jiang Si didn't object to them sleeping in the igloo, but only said, "If there's any danger, fire your gun immediately, understand?"
Zhang Qingfang nodded, "Yes, that's for sure."
Jiang Si went into the ice house and decorated it nicely to ensure that they would not be cold at night.
After dinner, Zhang Qingfang and Jiang Chengwu went to sleep in the ice house.
Everyone was a little worried, looking at the faint firelight in the igloo, "Sisi, is Dad on duty tonight?"
Since they confirmed that there was no one within a ten-mile radius, Jiang Si and his team stopped keeping watch.
Only Dahei and Xiaohei would occasionally hear noises and roars at night.
Most of the time, Jiang Si relied more on Qin Shen's judgment.
Jiang Si would only ask everyone to be on high alert if there was a severe snowstorm and Qin Shen's hearing was disturbed.
Jiang Sidao: "Dad is worried, it's okay to be on night duty."
If he wasn't asked to stay on duty, he wouldn't be able to sleep well. So he decided to stay on duty and see what happens tonight, and he would feel relieved.
Jiang Linhai nodded, told them to rest early, and went to the lookout window with a cup of coffee.
Back in the room, Jiang Si nestled in Qin Shen's arms and asked him, "Are there any movements from the monkeys?"
Qin Shen smiled and said, "Not yet." Fearing that she would worry, he added, "I'll pay close attention. Go to sleep."
Jiang Si kissed his cheek and said, "Then pay attention to it. Will it affect your sleep?"
Qin Shen stared at her chest and said meaningfully, "Actually, you're affecting my sleep more."
Jiang Si followed his gaze, her breath caught in her throat, and she glared at him, "Go to sleep!"
After a night, Jiang Linhai stared at two huge dark circles appearing under his eyes.
Everyone asked him, "How is it? What's going on?"
Jiang Linhai shook his head. "I haven't noticed anything. I'll go ask my parents later."
Shen Baoying and Niuniu went to the kitchen to make breakfast, while Jiang Si and Qin Shen went to pick up Zhang Qingfang and Jiang Chengwu.
I walked to the igloo, but there was no one inside.
Jiang Si followed the footprints and found Zhang Qingfang and Jiang Chengwu in the field.
Zhang Qingfang said to her happily, "We stayed here last night, and the monkeys didn't dare to come near us. The radish seedlings are alive and growing well. Let's wait a week and see if they need additional fertilizer."
