Chapter 920
920 Terraced Fields
In the impression of rural people, only land basins could be developed into farmland.
However, this time, the people were once again shocked by …
“Have you guys heard? That girl wants to turn that low hill into a farm?”
One of the hills that Lin yuelan had bought was much shorter than the others, so she planned to turn it into a terrace field.
“Yup, I know. There was sunlight on the hill, but the water … Everyone knew that water can only flow from high to low. Tell me, this field is on the hill, how is the water going to flow up?”
Someone immediately echoed, “How is she going to develop the hillside into land? Who doesn’t know that water and sunlight are the most important when it comes to growing paddy?”
“You guys still don’t know Lan ‘Er? If she didn’t have a way to get water for the fields on the hillside, why would she suddenly think of opening up fields in the mountains?”
“Maybe. Ever since this girl returned, the things she has done are not things we can understand.”
..
The villagers were discussing Lin yuelan’s plan to develop the land on the hill.
In the Lin family Garden, everyone was also surprised and in disbelief by Lin yuelan’s strange idea of developing a mountain and turning it into a field.
Guo Bing asked doubtfully, ” farming on a hillside? Miss Lin, what should we do with the water source? It’s fine if it rains every day, but on a sunny day, there’s no way for the water to flow from the foot of the mountain to the top.”
Guo Bing’s question was the same as everyone else’s.
Therefore, everyone looked at Lin yuelan in unison, hoping to get an answer from her.
Lin yuelan came out with a drawing and spread it out on the table.
Everyone looked at the blueprint on the table curiously. However, at first glance, they all had the same question mark on their heads.
Because they didn’t seem to understand.
“Girl, What’s this? ” Lin Deshan asked, confused.
Lin yuelan said, “This is the drawing of the slope being developed into terraced fields!”
Hearing Lin yuelan’s words, everyone looked at her again and seemed to be able to understand.
These wave-like lines were connected to form a figure. It was like a ladder.
Everyone’s eyes lit up as they watched.
“Eh, it can be done like this? Why didn’t anyone think of that?” Guo Bing said with regret and surprise. if someone had thought of the idea of developing the terraced fields, perhaps this world would have been able to solve the problem of land production.
In this era, there were fewer people and more land. However, there were different terrains for crops and homes.
The flat land was usually a place for people to build houses and live. Only land basins could be developed into fields.
It was impossible to grow crops on the mountain.
Now that they had seen Lin yuelan’s drawing, they knew that this hillside could actually be developed into a field for growing crops.
The terraced fields might give the people of the world a new way to survive!
“Yue ‘er, where does the water of the fields come from?” Jiang Zhennan asked with a frown.
Without Lin yuelan’s explanation of the blueprint, they wouldn’t have understood some of the more scientific designs.
Lin yuelan pointed to the top of the hill and explained, ” the most important thing about the terraced fields is where the water comes from.
“In fact, the most important source of water for the terraced fields is the dense forest on the hillside.
“Due to the height of the mountain, the flow of air is blocked. Coupled with the frequent rain, these plants are able to store water. In fact, the amount of water they can store was large.
“Therefore, we only need to add a slight drainage system for these terraced fields. For example, dig a ditch, or use empty bamboo to drain the water down to the fields!”
Everyone listened with great interest.
“However, the forest on the top of this small hill is not very dense. Thus, what we need to do is to preserve the rare forest trees on the mountain peak. At the same time, we can build a reservoir here that is similar to that of farmland. As long as the reservoir is large enough and the surrounding dense trees are rooted to store water, coupled with the water stored on rainy days, it will not be a problem to water the entire terraced field on the hillside.
“As for how to water the fields, we’ll use empty bamboo to make water pipes and channel the water from the reservoir down to water every single one of the fields.
“According to the measurements, if the water in the reservoir at the top of the slope is not enough for irrigation, we can build another reservoir in the middle of the slope. Of course, the trees in this area must be preserved. Other than the water storage function, it is also to prevent soil erosion!”
According to the design of the modern terraced fields, the fields were actually watered with a pump.
However, if she wanted to use a pump, she would have to use electricity. But where would Lin Yuelan find electricity?
No matter how capable she was, she wouldn’t be able to invent ‘electricity’ in a short time.
Moreover, even if she could invent it, she wouldn’t. Otherwise, once electricity was produced, history would be seriously affected.
Anyone who had studied history in the modern era knew that the world had undergone a major reform immediately because of the emergence of electricity.
She just wanted to be an ordinary person and didn’t want to be involved in these major historical changes.
Therefore, she would never let electricity appear unless it was absolutely necessary.
Therefore, she used the most primitive modern method of water storage and irrigation!
After hearing Lin yuelan’s explanation, everyone immediately understood.
It could actually be like this!
This was a difficult problem in the past, but Lin yuelan solved it so easily.
This was because, in the past, it was not that no one had thought of using this hillside to farm. However, due to various reasons, no one ever succeeded. Other than the difficulty in developing it, the water source for watering the fields had become a major problem.
But now, these two problems had been solved by Lin yuelan.
“Good, girl. I didn’t expect that this field could be developed like this!” Lin deshan was very excited.
If Lin yuelan’s terraced field design were successful, it would solve the problem of land shortage for many farmers.
If there were no more land basins, they could use the hillsides.
If one person couldn’t succeed, then all the people in the village could come together. He believed that this matter would benefit the country and the people. Even the Imperial court and the government would definitely benefit from this.
Hence, there was no need to worry that the terraced fields would not succeed.
Jiang Zhennan listened to Lin yuelan’s explanation, and his excitement was no less than Lin Deshan’s. He held Lin yuelan’s hand tightly and said with a moved expression, ” Yue ‘Er, this … I really have to thank you for this!”
Lin yuelan rolled her eyes in an uncouth manner and said, ” enough, you fool. I’m doing this for myself, you don’t need to thank me!”
The others laughed when they heard that.
“Hahaha …”
When Lin yuelan came to her senses, her face couldn’t help but blush. She was obviously a little embarra.s.sed.
Jiang Zhennan’s ears also turned slightly red under the ridicule of the crowd.
The couple was being teased and laughed at by the crowd.
“I say, boss, this is clearly the terrace field that misses Lin designed for her own hillside. Why are you so excited to thank miss Lin? ” Guo Bing was most happy to see Jiang Zhennan make a fool of himself.
Jiang Zhennan glared at Guo Bing.
“Brother Bing, you’re wrong.” Little Six was getting bolder and bolder, to the point that he even dared to joke with Jiang Zhennan. “Although miss Lin has set up these farms for herself, everyone here knows that it is very likely that these farms will spread throughout the entire Long yan Kingdom. Who do you think should be credited for this?”
“You’re right.” Guo Bing immediately nodded in agreement. “boss, with your relationship with miss Lin, part of her credit will be given to you. The emperor will reward you heavily. In that case, boss, you should thank miss Lin properly! Little Six, you’re really smart for once!”
Little Six touched the back of his head and chuckled in embarra.s.sment.
Looking at Little Six’s honest and cute appearance, everyone burst into laughter again.
“Hahaha …” Little Six was even more embarra.s.sed.
After everyone joked around for a while, they returned to the main topic.
Guo Bing asked, “Miss Lin, the terraced field project is quite big.”
Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” that’s right. But once it’s successful, unless there’s an earthquake or a rainstorm that causes a mudslide and destroys the farms, it’ll be beneficial for the next hundred years.”
Everyone thought for a moment and agreed.
“Miss Lin, you have only bought Four Hills. One will be used to make the terraced fields, one will be used to grow special fruits, and one will be used to grow grapes. Do you have any plans for the remaining one? ” Guo Bing asked.
Lin yuelan replied, ” no. Maybe more fruits.”
“but girl, didn’t you say that you were going to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes? ” Lin Deshan asked, frowning.
Lin yuelan said, ” those things can be planted through mixed planting. In other words, after the saplings are planted, the other crops can be placed around them. It’s going to save s.p.a.ce.”
They didn’t quite understand.
Lin yuelan said, ” you’ll know when the time comes.”
