Chapter 453: Land Selection
The educated youth who went to the countryside had a hard life, partly because they had no land.
Just like at the Educated Youth Institute, growing vegetables in a house that is about to collapse will not be enough to eat if you don’t save money.
And it was originally a place where houses were built, and the soil inside was not very suitable for growing vegetables.
Not to mention them, even the soil quality of Zhou Ziwen’s vegetable plot is not very good.
However, when he used the medium for growing mushrooms and mixed it into the soil, it changed part of the soil quality.
Later, fertilizer was made using soil methods, which improved the soil quality in the vegetable field again.
After so much work, there is no shortage of vegetables at home.
Hearing Zhou Ziwen's unkind words, Zhou Weiguo and Wu Dagang were both a little ashamed.
In fact, this is also a problem left over from the original.
When the educated youth went to the countryside, the general mentality was that the educated youth came to compete with them for food.
After all, we now have a production team system. To put it bluntly, we are eating from a big pot.
Everyone works together and shares food together.
But the production team only gets a small amount every year. If it is given to the educated youth, they will get less.
When it comes to personal interests, even the most amiable people will have some thoughts in their hearts.
What's more, the villagers in the countryside have simple folk customs, but they are also tough.
Of course, there is one thing to say. In fact, the educated youth in the Educated Youth Academy also have some problems themselves.
Compared with physical strength, they are no match for these villagers who have been working for a long time.
And because they haven’t done much work, and most city people have never planted crops at all, they are naturally not very good at work.
Some educated youths, in particular, did not go to the countryside voluntarily at all. They have lived a hard life in the countryside, and some of them are already lying down.
If he hadn't been looking forward to returning to the city one day, he would have found a family and completely integrated into the countryside.
"Xiao Zhou, just tell me what you think. You also know that due to some historical reasons, you educated youth have never had your own land, but there is no way around it. If you want to solve it, I guess there's some trouble," the captain said.
“What’s the trouble? The production team can’t arrange it for us, so we can cultivate it ourselves. If anyone is willing to cultivate it ourselves, then go ahead and do it. If you don’t want to, don’t force it.”
"In this way, we don't occupy the land in the village. Isn't this a matter of killing two birds with one stone?"
Zhou Ziwen raised his eyebrows and said.
The main reason why he is so enthusiastic is that he wants to have a piece of his own land.
As he said himself, this land is used to grow ginseng.
Be prepared for a rainy day. Although it will be a few years before the educated youth returns to the city, he also wants to make some income for himself before that.
Although he is not interested in money, he is not an immortal who does not eat the fireworks of the world.
If you want to live a good life, you must not have money.
No matter what world you are in, money is a good thing.
With this thing, most of the troubles in the world can be solved.
If it can’t be solved, it’s just not enough money.
According to his idea, he asked the production team for a piece of land and got some private land for himself.
I also grow ginseng in my private plot. After three to five years, this batch of ginseng will be sold through the channels of the production team.
After selling the money, he will have the start-up capital.
When the time comes to return to the city, you will have capital no matter what you do.
"Create the land yourself?"
Zhou Weiguo and Wu Dagang looked at each other and made decisions in their hearts.
"Xiao Zhou, this method is good, but even if you cultivate it yourself, you can't cultivate more. Each person can cultivate up to three points of land, and this land, when you leave in the future, our production team will have to cultivate it. Reclaimed.”
Zhou Weiguo pondered for a moment, then spoke. "This is what it should be." Zhou Ziwen nodded happily.
His requirements are not high, as long as he has a piece of land to grow ginseng.
In total, each person has three points, which is quite a lot.
He and the Chen sisters combined have nearly one acre.
If all ginseng is planted, it will not be a problem to sell it for tens of thousands of dollars when harvested.
Of course, with so much money, if he wants to take it all, it depends on his ability.
But these are things for the future. Now he has not even started growing ginseng, so why should he care about those things?
"Xiao Zhou, I can leave this ginseng matter to you. Do you need anything here?" Zhou Weiguo asked.
"There is nothing needed." Zhou Ziwen shook his head, "As long as the village lets me plant it, I will look at the land in the past few days, and then go to the mountains to find some ginseng seedlings and come back, and then you will wait to sell them. Just make money with ginseng.”
"Haha, you kid, then go ahead and do it. If you need anything, tell us in time and we will find a solution."
Both Zhou Weiguo and Wu Dagang supported Zhou Ziwen's idea of growing ginseng. manner.
But they don’t particularly care, after all, the growth cycle of ginseng is too long.
Even if you want to make money, it will be a few years later.
Right now, they are only interested in growing mushrooms.
And now is the spring plowing period, so they are very busy.
"When I hold the meeting tomorrow, I will tell everyone about the private land. I believe you educated youths will be very happy." Wu Dagang said from the side.
"No, thank you Uncle Zhou and Uncle Wu for their support." Zhou Ziwen said thank you.
I’m afraid at this time, Zhou Weiguo and Wu Dagang still don’t know how profitable growing ginseng is.
When he grows ginseng later, I believe they will be very enthusiastic.
"Stop talking so much and go about your business!" Wu Dagang waved his hand angrily.
"Then I'll leave first."
With a smile on his face, Zhou Ziwen stood up and turned around to leave.
His purpose of coming to Wu Dagang and Zhou Weiguo has been achieved. He has a lot of things to be busy with next, and of course he doesn't want to continue to delay here.
It’s not like he was too busy, chatting with two bad old men here.
By the time he came out of the production team, it was still very early.
After thinking for a while, he was going to take a look around the village.
The ginseng seedlings can be harvested later, first find the land where the ginseng is planted.
Ginseng has special requirements for soil quality. If the soil is unqualified, ginseng will not survive.
However, this kind of land is still easy to find here, the difference is just how much.
Before he thought of planting ginseng, he took a quick look and found that he already had several goals.
One of the places is not very far from his home, only a few minutes away.
However, he only took a rough look at it before and didn't know how square the land was.
There are two other places suitable for growing ginseng, but those two places are a bit far from the village. Even if they are used, it will have to be done later.
After coming out of the production team, Zhou Ziwen did not stop and arrived at his promising destination soon.
This land is authentic loess with good drainage, strong water-holding capacity and good air permeability, making it very suitable for growing ginseng.
Zhou Ziwen carefully inspected the land and estimated it to be about two to three acres.
The area is not very big, but not small either.
However, this land has not been cultivated before. If you want to use it, you need to cultivate it again.
