Chapter 1226 1226. Tea seedlings are delivered
This year, the entire Yunqiao Village started with a busy start.
However, no one in the village was unhappy.
After all, at this time in previous years, they would at most be tidying up their own vegetable gardens and preparing some rapeseeds, vegetable seedlings, etc. It could be said to be the most leisurely time in their daily lives.
But for farmers, idleness means no money.
Nowadays, even rice has to be bought. If they stay idle for a long time, they will feel anxious. This is why they have frequently gone out to work in recent years.
But this year is different.
Since the age of fifteen, the Old Song family has been busy.
When the weather is freezing, we start digging and raking the soil and spreading base fertilizer on the mountains. On the riverbank pasture, the manure from cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks is fermented extremely thoroughly, just waiting to be put to use!
When the days got warmer day by day, and the land that totaled thousands of acres was cleared, their family began to plant fruit trees again.
Carloads of fruit trees were transported from all over the country, and Professor Song's connections played a great role at this moment.
Song Tan doesn’t have to worry about which varieties to choose, early or late maturity, or where to plant what, and how to use the land underneath...
Everything, Yan Ran and the three of them are doing it. Plans were given last year.
In the spring of this year, there were two more field adjustments. Song Tan only needed to confirm and then arrange for people to plant.
Even the planting was watched by the three of them.
To be honest, Song Tan thinks the salary is really worth it!
Compared with this, the strawberry patch they cultivated alone behind the dormitory was nothing.
Of course, Song Tan also knew why Yan Ran and the three of them asked Chen Yuan to help them keep an eye on this matter.
But it is difficult for agricultural students to graduate. No matter how bad the strawberries are, they are still more delicious than ordinary strawberries. No matter who took advantage of them or what happened, the three of them will cry in the field.
Chen Yuan asked people to help keep an eye on him, which also made people feel more at ease.
Song Tan wanted them to stay at home for a long time, but he never thought that they would not be able to graduate.
However, although the land has become much larger, their family is even more relaxed in this busy early spring than last year when they only had a few acres of land.
Even Ulan muttered:
"It's convenient to hire someone. Last year, your dad and I were being bossed around by you..."
Song Tan doesn’t want to either.
"But there was no money at that time, and the food was not good, so I just wanted to seize the opportunity in the spring..."
Fortunately, I was busy for a while, but I also laid the foundation for subsequent income, too. This gave their family more funds to expand their territory.
"That's true." Ulan also nodded: "It's just that I'm really too busy. Every night when I close my eyes, I have to think about what I'm going to do tomorrow, and I have to work non-stop the next day... It's so panicky."< br>
Qiaoqiao looked over and said, "I'm not panicking, I've even learned how to grow milkvetch."
He was a little unhappy: "Sister, my mother didn't teach me well before. She said that the way you plant corn can be used to plant everything else, but when I plant milkvetch like that, the ones that grow are not as lush as those that my sister scatters casually.”
No, just scatter a handful and the seeds will be so dense!
And Qiao Qiao's place is just like planting corn. Three or two seeds are placed in a hole, and there is a space in between... Then isn't what grows sparse?
"It's okay," Song Tan comforted him: "The milkvetch seeds you sowed in winter are very good. Now look, are they green? They can be picked and sold soon."< br>
Now that it has just warmed up, the milkvetch has already sprouted green buds and leaves. From a distance, it looks like it is covered with a layer of gauze, which is particularly moving.
Not only the rice fields, but also the riverbanks are also sprinkled with large tracts. When combined with other fresh and tender pastures, the cattle and sheep that have been waiting for the whole winter can simply eat it happily every day. The old big oxen were mixed among these cattle, and they didn't feel lonely at all at this moment.
Of course, Song Tan also knew that Old Man Li actually visited it often.
But facing this old man, none of the Old Song family wanted to say anything. Anyway, now that he is looking at the tea mountain that once belonged to him, he is working diligently and hard...
That's it. Bar.
……
Since spring planting began, trucks delivering seedlings have been non-stop every day. Fortunately, the road was built last year, otherwise just delivering goods would be a hassle.
This morning another three trucks of seedlings arrived.
Xiao Zhu, the party secretary, saw it from afar and strolled over.
After having breakfast first, he asked: "I just saw that you led the car to the mountain over Old Man Li. What was it?"
"Tea seedlings." Song Tan replied: "There were only a dozen acres of old tea trees on that mountain, but they were all pruned in winter - they grew too tall, one or two meters high, and they couldn't be picked."
"The remaining wasteland should be reclaimed and planted with tea. Otherwise, the annual output would be so low, Boss Chang would really cry to death."
After the tea seedlings are planted, they can be picked in two to three years. Yields are slightly lower at first, but they grow very quickly. In comparison, it doesn't require too much care, and now it has become the main profit-making force of the Old Song family.
So, even though his family couldn't drink that much, Song Tan still arranged for more than one hundred acres of land, which can be said to be a lot of sacrifice.
Otherwise, peanuts, corn...what else can't be grown on this land?
Xiao Zhu, the party secretary, didn’t know the difficulty of growing tea. At this moment, he only had a good impression of Boss Chang, so he nodded:
"Okay, there are more tea leaves. I will buy more when the time comes - picking will also require more people, right? There will be work in the village by then."
When she said this, she remembered: "By the way, the electrical transformation is about to begin! This summer, you can turn on the air conditioner in your home up and down the mountain without worrying about being unable to carry it."
This is really good news!
Song Tan sighed and looked at Party Secretary Xiao Zhu pointedly: "The leaders of our city are really resolute and resolute!"
Xiao Zhu Party Secretary smiled silently, and at this moment he just I asked another question out of curiosity:
"I saw you planted a lot of persimmon trees on the stone slope. Are they crisp persimmons or fire crystal persimmons?"
"Both."
"That patch of original persimmons The trees have also been re-grafted. After all, they are big trees. It would be a pity to destroy them.”
The wasteland was so big that it took Brother Sun a month to clean up the land. time, now the wild chrysanthemum seeds have been sown.
It’s just that the sunflowers will bloom a little later, for fear of being frozen by the cold air again.
Xiao Zhu, the party secretary, remembered that everyone had been working for the old Song family since the Spring Festival, and they had never had a day off. At this moment, he was smiling from ear to ear:
"It's good, it's good! There is work in the village." , Only if everyone stays down can we develop better, otherwise it will all depend on your family, no matter how hard we try, we can’t help it.”
Song Tan was also happy: “Yes, we will do it if everyone stays in the village. Why are we so drastic? Otherwise we won’t be able to find workers, and we won’t be able to farm the land.”
The emo energy hasn’t passed yet... I lay down all day! ε=(ο｀*)))Alas.
Good morning.
Let’s start with these today. Cheer up tomorrow!
Spring is accelerating, because many plantings have already been written at the beginning, so I won’t repeat them!
