Chapter 82: Chapter 82: Building the Greenhouse (Second Update)Our backyard is about four or five parts large.
Knowing that her daughter wanted to use it, Xiao Mother cleared everything out of the field for her daughter to use.
According to Xiao Jinli’s request, a fence was built around it and a greenhouse had to be set up.
“Why do we need to set up a greenhouse, Jinli?” Xiao Father asked with a puzzled expression, “With a greenhouse, rainwater and sunlight will be an issue.”
Xiao Jinli said, “Well, I’ve looked through the books, the ones on agriculture. Planting crops in a greenhouse is better for research. Because the greenhouse has controllable factors, and without a greenhouse, it is difficult to control things like rainwater and sunlight.”
In fact, the greenhouse was set up to prevent some uninvited guests from entering, such as rats and snakes.
Hearing this, Xiao Father nodded and said, “Okay, as long as Jinli has her own considerations!”
For the fence, Xiao Father and Xiao Junxuan went into the bamboo grove and cut down more than a dozen yellow bamboo, along with some fir branches.
Adding fir branches was meant to make the fence more secure.
After cutting down the yellow bamboo, it was sawed into sections with a length of about 1.2 to 1.5 meters each.
The sawed short yellow bamboos were then split in half with a machete.
However, for the fence, bamboo strips were needed.
Bamboo strips are the green skin layer of yellow bamboo. When peeled off and soaked in hot water, they become more flexible and stronger.
It took a family less than a day to set up a fence.
Afterwards, Xiao Father found someone to set up a greenhouse according to Xiao Jinli’s requirements.
When the person who built the greenhouse found out that it was for a child, they thought it was ridiculous.
Not only did they doubt that a ten-year-old child could cultivate anything, but they also thought that the effort to set up a greenhouse was just a waste of money.
When the villagers heard that the greenhouse was for Xiao Jinli’s research, all of them were curious and came to take a look.
Hearing the people who built the greenhouse talking, some unhappy villagers said, “Why do you care if Xiao Wanshan wants to let their child play with it?” “Yeah, it’s just five parts of land, it can’t grow that much.”
The person who set up the greenhouse, “…” Not only did the employer find it ridiculous, but the people in the village were also confused.
Is five parts of land a small amount?
If five parts of land were used to grow rice, at least several hundred kilograms of grain could be harvested.
If used to grow other vegetables, it could feed a family for a year.
And, what does a ten-year-old child know about planting?
Of course, the person who set up the greenhouse simply muttered under his breath and didn’t bother to argue with them.
Everyone here thinks it’s nothing, so why should we worry about it?
The cost of the greenhouse is calculated based on its size, and at five parts, it is more than 300 square meters. Also, the construction uses a glass greenhouse framework, costing 32 yuan per square meter.
