Chapter Eleven; Leases(2/2)

Until later, after I don’t know who built a new road on the roadside of a faraway temple, there were fewer cars.

Now it is even rarer to even motorcycles except buses.

Perhaps it was because of the road back then. Except for the places where no one lives on the road, there were deep ditches more than two meters deep on both sides.

Therefore, some diligent people would wrap both sides in the ditch east of the road and use it as a lotus vegetable pond.

Lotus vegetables are also called lotus root and lotus, but in Nanhe, people are called lotus vegetables.

Wang Zhen’s family also has a lotus vegetable pond, which is exactly the intersection facing Wang Zhen’s family. It is about ten meters long and about four or five meters wide.

Because it was winter, when Wang Zhen came to his lotus vegetable pond, the lotus vegetable leaves disappeared, and even the water inside was gone, and it turned into a dry lotus vegetable pond!

After looking around the lotus vegetable pond at his home, Wang Zhen nodded with satisfaction. Although the lotus vegetable stems had withered, based on the thickness of the withered lotus vegetable stems, Wang Zhen could easily tell whether the lotus vegetable grows strong enough this year.

"It seems that you don't have to buy lotus vegetables this year."

Wang Zhen thought happily.

In previous years, because of the fact that the lotus vegetables were growing at home, Wang Zhen’s family was self-sufficient every Chinese New Year. However, the growth of lotus vegetables depends entirely on God. If they grow poorly, it will naturally affect the yield of lotus vegetables.

Sometimes, when the yield is not high, you can't even dig and eat it because you have to keep it for the next year as a seed.

In the early years, after the first store to buy lotus vegetables, the south side of the current road had been transformed into lotus vegetables pools of large and small.

However, lotus vegetables are very fat-absorbing. After planting lotus vegetables for four or five years in ordinary ponds, they lose their fertility, and the lotus vegetables grown become smaller and smaller.

Therefore, although there are still large and small pools on the roadside now, there are not many lotus vegetables, and these ones include Wang Zhen’s family.

Looking at the empty lotus vegetable ponds in other homes, a thought suddenly came to Wang Zhen's mind; "At that time, after I complete the contracting of all the land in the village, why not also pack these lotus vegetable ponds?"

"After I pack it, I just need to clear the distance between the lotus vegetable pond and add water to it, so that I can grow lotus vegetables and serve as a land protection river!"

Although this idea is a bit whimsical, Wang Zhen thought about it and it was really possible.

You must know that Wang Zhenzhen contracted the land in the village, and in order to facilitate management, he must find a way to enclose all the land.

There is no need to worry about the south because of a river surrounding it, but there is no protection on the other three sides. However, after digging this lotus vegetable pond, although the lotus vegetable pond is not wide, it has become very deep after years of digging. After pouring water, ordinary people dare not jump down.

What’s more coincidental is that the Lotus Cooking Pond also forms a parallel line with the Dahe River. In this case, you only need to enclose a fence on both sides of the Dahe River and the Lotus Cooking Pond to become a natural farm!

Not only can it save a lot of manpower and material resources, but it can also exchange the lotus vegetables grown for money.

"But, what are the fences?"

Wang Zhen thought about it and had a headache.

You can use a stool! It's good, but it doesn't take a lot of money, but it's not resistant to corrosion. It may rot in a few years."

But use wooden stakes! Can you find so many wooden stakes there? The materials can make people worry!

"Forget it, I don't want to do it anymore. When I have time, ask my dad and see if he has any solutions."

Wang Zhen, who could not find a solution, walked forward along the roadside. When he looked up accidentally, he saw a plant that was still green in winter.

"Hey, isn't this Chen Tsu?"
