As Li Long thought, Wang Caimi was repairing a tractor outside the yard.
The Oriental Red Seventy-Five Chain Rail Tractor really played a huge role in agricultural production in northern Xinjiang.
Without this kind of tractor, it would be impossible to have millions of acres of cotton fields, grain fields, rapeseed flowers and the like behind it.
At the beginning, the people in the Corps pulled the plow and started the wasteland. At that time, the main reed beaches and swamps were reclaimed.
Later, with the tractor, the speed of land reclamation increased, the efficiency of plowing increased several times, and the grain output increased, and more people could support them, so a large number of people from the mainland would come.
But to be honest, this tractor has been used for a long time, and there are many problems, either there are problems here or there.
When Li Long came over in a jeep, Wang Caimi was holding a butter gun to the tractor. Naturally, this butter is not the kind you eat, but a kind of lubricant.
The worn work clothes that Wang Caimi wore were covered with oil. I guess this set of clothes never washed and could no longer see the original color. "Xiaolong is here, is there something wrong?" Wang Caimi asked with a smile, wiping the sweat on her forehead with her sleeve.
"I remember carrying bulldozer with you, can you use it?"
"It can be used, what are you doing?"
"I plan to raise more cattle and sheep. I applied for land next to Laoma, and planned to build some sheds. That place is a saline-alkali beach. It's not easy to do. I want your bulldozer to push the saline-alkali layer on the top of the piece. I will pull the sand and gravel to mattress the foundation so as not to cover it and return alkali. "
"Hey, it's all. You can make such a big investment." Wang Caimi smiled and said, "Then Ma Jinbao's sheep pen is just a random circumference, and it will still be used."
"That's different, I want to raise it There are so many, and I have been preparing to raise it for a long time." Li Long explained, and didn't want to say more, and asked with certainty, "Can it be used? How can I count the money?"
"You can definitely use it, you How much do you want to push? How deep do you push? ”
"Following westward along the foundation of the Lao Ma, it is as long as the wall of the Lao Ma Ma. In terms of this, it must have five acres of land, deep... half a meter." Li Long had a general idea in his mind and gave the standard.
"If you count like this..." Wang Caimi calculated and said, "You have to give one hundred yuan. This push is different from plows. It costs fuel. It can't push half a meter at once. I have to push more. Several times. "
"Okay." Li Long knew that it was really hard to push it away, and it might be even harder than what Wang Caimi thought, so he didn't bargain. "It's your advantage, so I will approve the application in the past." Wang Cai said with a smile.
Although he doesn't raise those things, it doesn't prevent him from envying Li Long. Wang Caimi was actually quite unbalanced. She was tired and didn’t feel as fast as Li Long’s money.
Moreover, most of the hard-earned money you earn has to be posted on this broken tractor.
It's not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it also makes everyone misunderstand.
Look at how good Li Long was, he moved his mouth and ran back and forth a few times before he got the money.
"Hi, how easy is it? Uncle Luo helped to raise the things, and I also paid for them." Li Long waved his hand, "Although there are five acres of feed land, the things planted in that land are not enough. What are the animals eating? "
"Has your brother's five acres of feed land been taken back?" Wang Caimi asked in confusion.
"That's my brother. My brother is not a professional pig farmer. I'm not here to be a pig farmer now." Li Long said with a smile, "I raise more than my brother. Besides, why can the team criticize me? A piece of land? I have to raise hundreds of cattle and sheep in the future."
Li Long vaguely remembered that the country was going to carry out the vegetable blue project, which was mainly to enrich the supply of non-staple food for the people.
I am currently planning ahead. To be honest, the money has become bigger and bigger in the next few years, and prices have been rising. It is better to start an industry.
Although the jade seed materials, antiques, and other things in my home may become rich in twenty or thirty years, if I don’t have a solid physical foundation, I will really be able to make me rich. It's hard to say whether you can grasp it.
So Li Long felt that it was necessary to build such a breeding base, which of course was also a channel for Uncle Luo to realize his ideal.
Although Wang Caimi was envious, he knew that he could not do this.
After all, people only have two hands, and his brother has no time to do it, so he has to help him.
So even if you are envious, you can't do it.
So the topic turned positive.
"How to make the dirt that is pushed?"
"It's just piled up in the north." Li Long said, "When someone wants that saline-alkali beach, it just happens to be connected to my land. If no one wants it, it won't affect the pile."
"Who wants the saline and alkaline beach?" Wang Caimi shook her head.
I thought to myself that it was because you, Li Longcai, would you have classified the saline and alkaline beach under your contract name.
Everyone is very clear about the fact that wheat is not good, corn is more picky, and oil sunflower does not grow.
Of course he didn't know that in the next ten years, the saline-alkali beach will become a hot commodity. Who would have thought that the saline-alkali beach will grow cotton!
Cotton is not afraid of saline and alkali, and of course it is also the modified variety later.
Li Long and Wang Caimi agreed to push the other side tomorrow, and he still had to contact other people.
After all, those saline-alkali beaches cannot be pushed open, and they also need to be pulled on the mattress. It is difficult to hire a large truck at the moment, so Li Long thought of gathering the existing tractors in the team to pull sand and gravel for himself.
If it is best for them to charge money and don’t charge money, then the whole family will just be filled with a wild boar.
Anyway, when harvesting wheat, the tractors in the team, except Tao Daqiang's, brought a lot of income to themselves.
Compared to a wild boar, it is really much stronger.
Li Long is not a stingy person either, a wild boar is nothing.
Xie Yundong, Tao Daqiang and Liang Dacheng all patted their chests and said it was no problem when they heard Li Long say this. After all, the autumn harvest has basically ended. Like Xu Chengjun, they are waiting to see if Li Long can get the task of this reed master.
Of course it is good to do it, but nothing else can be done, it is equivalent to adding icing on the cake.
Li Jianguo heard Li Long say this and thought about it and said:
"It's not easy to transform the saline and alkaline beach. I heard that the Corps set up a alkaline ditch, which means digging a large ditch next to the saline and alkali land, and then flooding the water to take the saline and alkali in the ground to the ditch with water. ”
The alkaline ditch is really useful, and it has been implemented by all production teams later.
But Li Long didn't plan to use this. He thought more directly, one was to measure soil and fertilize, and the other was to plant cotton directly.
He got thirty acres to the west of Lao Maha in the west. Among them, five acres of land should be built with livestock circles, and the remaining ones may be counted as five acres of scraps, and at least twenty acres of land should be placed there.
Li Long felt that it would be a waste to let go, so it would be better to conduct an experiment. If it could work, then just start the land contracting model in advance.
Of course, there is no need to hurry up this matter. At present, the production teams dare not make the way too wild for land contracting.
For example, in the early 21st century, a production team once directly contracted the price of saline-alkali land for people for seventy years.
Isn't it a bit crazy?
Of course, I don’t know if this idea was thought out by the contractor or given by the production team, but this is indeed a bit too bold.
Of course it was invalidated in the end.
It's also a confusing account.
Now Li Long just wants to contract hundreds of acres of saline-alkali beach for seventy years. The production team will not allow the contract, or the village will not approve it.
And Li Long would be seen as a spoon.
There are so many opportunities like this later, so don’t worry.
Li Jianguo didn't understand what Li Long said about soil testing and formula, but after knowing that Li Long had a relationship with the Agricultural College, he didn't think too much.
The real soil testing formula was not proposed until the beginning of the 21st century and was then developed. No one has thought of this at the moment.
Li Long felt that she would definitely be interested when she went to Bayi Agricultural College later and talked to Professor Wu about this matter, right?
Li Long went to Laoma again.
Uncle Luo was not there, No. 76 and the carriage were not there, and Li Long probably should have gone to make the grass.
Sure enough, after a while, Uncle Luo came back with No. 76. The carriage was filled with tall green grass, including reeds, tare grass, gray strips, etc.
On the 76th, after Li Jianguo drove the tractor back, he arrived at the Laoma again and continued to use his remaining energy. When he saw Li Long, he was quite excited and kept tilting his head and sniffing.
Li Long went over and touched No. 76, followed Uncle Luo into the yard, and told the situation of the ground while helping unloading the grass.
"Thirty acres, not that much is available." Uncle Luo was very clear about the size of the plot, "Our old horse is only five acres and eight cents of land."
" It's okay, five acres of livestock circles are built on the west side. I plan to plow out the remaining land first to see what can be planted at that time."
Regardless of whether it is planted or not, whether it can be planted or not, plowed out first, which is equivalent to declaring sovereignty.
The reason why Xu Chengjun approved Li Long for such a generous thirty acres is actually quite large that the saline-alkali land is not worth the money.
It is not like later generations that can dig holes and release water to simulate the marine environment to raise shrimps.
Even if you raise it at this time, not many people can afford it.
Put it to be honest.
After unloading the grass, No. 76 was brought into the circle and let go. After putting the grass on it, Uncle Luo came out and joined Li Long to listen to his idea. "There are a lot of things to raise later. Uncle Luo, you are the director of this farm. I will mention the salary to you forty per month. If others want to come here to work, they have to go through you and me. Their acknowledgement is twenty a month."
The most new ⊥小⊥ said⊥ in ⊥6⊥9⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥!
"Hey, why do I take so much?" Uncle Luo felt that he had taken too much, "You bring me meat from time to time, and the work I do is easy, and I am old..."< br>
"You are considered a technical talent." Li Long said half-jokingly, "How could anyone else take these animals so honestly? Uncle Luo, he dare not underestimate himself, this matter is settled. .”
"Okay, they will definitely be willing to do it." Uncle Luo stopped saying anything, just thinking that since Li Long had paid such a high salary, he had to make a fortune.
"The team gave us five acres of feed land. I plan to plant alfalfa next year." Li Long continued, "At that time, it will be used regardless of cattle and sheep."
< br>"Okay." Uncle Luo also meant this. Among the forages, alfalfa is naturally much nutritious and much better than wheatgrass.
The matter was agreed upon, and Li Long refused Uncle Luo's invitation to leave for food, so he had to rush back to the big yard.
If you can go home for dinner, try to go back as much as possible. The child is getting older and needs the company of his family.
When Wang Cai was repairing a tractor, his younger brother Wang Dagui came over and wanted his brother to lend him some money. He planned to buy a small four-wheel tractor.
"What tractor to buy? Follow me to drive this Dongfanghong Seventy-five and practice your skills. From now on, the job of plowing and raking in this team will be our brothers. I will drive that little four "But that can make money." Wang Dagui was reluctant, "I heard from Xie Yundong that he was driving the wheat season to harvest wheat, and he made two or three thousand in one season! He went to fight again later Grass, I made a lot of money again! "
Wang Dagui followed Wang Caimi to drive the tractor day and night, but throughout the year, the eldest brother gave him only a thousand yuan.
There are many lands in the team. They plow twice or three times a year, and they also have to sow seeds, rake and flatten the ground. These are all done by the Wang brothers.
It’s said that he can earn tens of thousands a year, but he only gives himself more than one thousand, so Wang Dagui naturally doesn’t want to.
But his brother also said that the money is mostly for repairing cars and buying oil.
Wang Dagui also admitted that the tractor was too fuel-intensive, and the parts that were repaired and replaced after it was broken are not cheap, and it was normal for dozens or hundreds of dollars.
It will take a lot of chain tracks that broke down and sold scrap iron in a year.
But Wang Dagui felt that he wouldn't just give him this little, so he planned to buy a small four-wheel tractor and do it alone.
I saved more than 3,000 yuan and I still lacked some to buy a tractor, so I thought about asking my elder brother to borrow it.
Wang Caimi is naturally unwilling to do so. As his helper, his younger brother is qualified and he works hard. Although he doesn't know much about technology, he does whatever he wants.
Now that he wants to work alone, Wang Caimi will definitely not let it go. He said:
"I tell you that the little four rounds of money will be the year. You see, everyone knows how to make money , the team will definitely buy more next year, and when everyone competes, the price of cutting wheat will be reduced.
That is not like our plowing land, the whole team is unique, no one is with us at all Competition. Don't worry, I'll give you an extra five hundred yuan if I get the money back this year! Can my brother still make me suffer a loss? "
Listening to my elder brother saying that he would give me an extra five hundred this year, although Wang Dagui was a little dissatisfied, he didn't say much.
Then Wang Caimi told him about Li Long's life tomorrow. He didn't say how much money Li Long gave him, but only said that he and his younger brother took turns to work together to try to finish the work in three or five days. He also said that Li Long wanted to be a professional breeder and that the team also gave feed land as gossip.
Wang Dagui went back after hearing this. Anyway, it's almost the end of the year, so I'll talk about it when the big brother collects the money.
When Ma Jinbao came back on the road, Wang Dagui remembered what his elder brother said before, so he asked Ma Jinbao half-jokingly if there was any feed land and if the team had a shed for him to enclose land.
Ma Jinbao said no, so Wang Dagui told him about Li Long's new shed and placing feed land.
"He only has a feed land for Li Long. You have forty or fifty sheep, and there is no feed land. It's unreasonable." Wang Dagui said with dissatisfaction with Ma Jinbao.
Actually, I just want to see a joke.
Ma Jinbao drove the sheep back with a dark face.
The sheep rushed back to the circle, and Ma Jinbao hurried to Xu Chengjun's house without waiting for his family to call for dinner.
Xu Chengjun has returned from Xu Haijun's home. Ma Hongmei prepared the rice and the two planned to have lunch.
"Oh, the shepherd in our team is here," Xu Chengjun joked, "Is there something wrong?"
"Is there something wrong." Ma Jinbao asked with a dark face:
"You give it to the Li family. Did Li Long feed the ground? "
"Well, you know quickly," Xu Chengjun nodded, "What's wrong?" "Then why don't you give it to me? He just How many animals? I am so 47 sheep!"
"Hey, you know you can raise the sheep." Xu Chengjun put away his smile, "Do you know what Li Long raises?"
"I've seen the roe deer, the red deer, and the wild boar. There are not thirty in total."
"Yes, you also know that people raise roe deer, red deer and wild boar. Do you know that the things he raises are all in the county and township He was a registered person and had been to the state newspaper. He was considered special breeding. Do you know? "
"This... I don't know." When Ma Jinbao heard about special breeding, his momentum became a little weaker. He himself The one who raises it is a bit ordinary, but he still couldn't help but say: "Then I raise a lot!"
"More? Is forty or fifty heads considered a lot?" Xu Chengjun sneered, "Li Long is going to expand the shed and plan to get two hundred cattle and sheep next year to feed them. Can you compare? If you can raise two hundred, I will do it too. Buy feed for you! "
"Two hundred?" Ma Jinbao was stunned when he heard this, "Can you really do so much?" "
"Didn't you see the pile of Lao Ma's? The wheat straw? They are preparing now. After the autumn, the animals in the mountains will be transferred, so they will buy cattle and sheep to fatten. "
"Then how can he have a shed to enclose land?" Ma Jinbao thought of another one," I want to raise more, and there must be a place."
"Do you think they want it for nothing? He promised to give the team 800 yuan, would you give it? If you give it, I will also approve it for you A piece of saline-alkali land! ”
"Then I don't want it!" Ma Jinbao turned around and left. Whoever bought 800 yuan to buy a piece of saline-alkali land would really be a spoon.
Watching Ma Jinbao leaving in a hurry, Xu Chengjun spat and despised this coward.
I think about comparing treatment with others every day, but why don’t I think that others are better than you? When people come to ask for treatment, they first think about what they can do to the team.
This guy is so good, think about what you want first! Such a person deserves to live worse than others.
Although Li Long just agreed to the meat and did not agree to the money, Xu Chengjun did not think about it in detail.
Calculate the ten kilograms of meat per household that Li Long promised, and more than 400 kilograms of meat, at the current price, it is almost 800 yuan.
This is quite a lot!
In the big yard, Li Long told his family about this while eating.
"Eight hundred kilograms, a lot." Gu Boyuan was a little worried, "It's not easy to deal with. It may not be enough to get all the wild boars in your horse."
"I I plan to get some in the mountains. "Li Long said, "Anyway, there are a lot of things in the mountains, so it's almost enough to get a group of wild boars or a group of wild goats."
In the afternoon, the opportunity came - He Yuqing and Meng Hai were driving the carriage and pulling a cart of things over.
There is a big and heavy thing in the car. (This chapter ends)
