Chapter 153: Prepared

“This is already much better than I thought,” Zhao Zhan said with a serious expression. “It would be good if half of the people were willing to learn. I asked Dashan to prepare the seedlings a few days ago. Why don’t we take advantage of today to let everyone know and plant the seedlings in the field?”

It just so happened that other than the four from Zhao Erlin’s family and Liu Xiaowan’s Yang Dalei, the rest of the men in the village were all busy at his homestead. “Lizheng, I’m going to the homestead now to ask everyone to stop their work. Please go and call Yang Dalei over. When the time comes, I’ll divide the people in the village into three groups. Dashan, Junbao, and I will each teach one group. What do you think?”

“Sure, why not?” Yang Lizheng was also a straightforward person. He got up and wanted to walk out. “Didn’t your wife come back with you today? Last time, she said that my seedling was freezing and needed some straw to dry out. It’s true, now my seedlings are much more energetic.”

“She’s resting at home. It’s quite tiring to come all the way here from town.”

“Alright, I know you love your wife. Let’s go then.”

“Okay.” Zhao Zhan got up and followed Yang Lizheng out of the door before splitting into two groups.

“Master Sun.” Zhao Zhan found Master Sun among the group of people working on the homestead. “Let’s stop the work for a while. We won’t work today.”

“Sure, everyone’s been working hard recently anyway. Your house will probably be completed in less than half a month.

“When the time comes, I’ll seal the courtyard wall. When the courtyard is decorated, you can move in,” Master Sun said, looking at the half-built house with a sense of accomplishment. “In a few days, I’ll have someone clean this house first. Have you found a carpenter to make the cabinets or something? You can move in first before doing that.”

“I did. I’ll ask Master Chen when he’ll be done with the furniture in two days. Once he’s done, I’ll ask him to send it over.”

“It’s worth it for me to be able to build a house like yours in my life,” Master Sun patted Zhao Zhan’s back with a face full of emotion. “About the things you took from the mountain last time… You should hurry up and finish them in the next few days. I can give it a try. If there’s anything inappropriate, I can change it in time.”

“Okay, I’ll come back tomorrow. I’ll go up the mountain and finish it,” he said.

If he didn’t take advantage of these few days to finish what he needed to do, he would be too busy when the shop in Wangshan Town opened.

“Zhao Zhan,” Yang Dashan washed his hands and face and hurried over, “Were you looking for me?”

“Yes, I want to take advantage of this afternoon to distribute the seedlings to the guys. I want to teach them how to use retting fertilizer.”

“Oh, that. Let me get them.” Yang Dashan wanted to go back to his room when he heard this, but he was stopped by Zhao Zhan.

“Wait a minute, I’ll teach everyone how to use the retting fertilizer first, and bring them to our two manure pits to take a look. If we send the seedlings down first, I’m afraid everyone will be unhappy.

“As for planting the seedlings, I’ll ask about it after I’m done teaching. Those who are free can tend to their fields around first. When they’re ready to plant the seedlings, they can come to you to register and collect them.

“Alright, I’ll take care of whatever you need. It’ll be quite tiring for you to run back and forth from the town every day.”

Zhao Zhan shook his head and then took Yang Dashan to separate the big guys into three groups. He had just finished when Lizheng and Liu Xiaowan also rushed over.
