Alpine Orchard

Chapter 40 A New Start

Move the cup outside.

It's summer now, and the temperature is high.

Ye Mo built the sunshade net at a height of about two meters to play the role of sunshade and cooling.

Then water it with spiritual spring water...

I don't feel like I've done much, and it's already noon.

I saw on the Internet that durians can be grown by cuttings.Don't know what the survival rate is.

Ye Mo washed his hands and drove down the mountain.

The nearest neighbor to Ye Mo is a tile-roofed courtyard house that raises native chickens.

Ye Mo passed by before and saw the owner's house feeding chickens, corn and millet.When he came to the other party's door, Ye Mo honked the horn a few times...

After a while, a middle-aged woman walked out: "Who are you?"

"Hello, I live on the mountain, a neighbor who just moved here." Ye Mo said: "I saw that your family has chickens, do you sell them? I want to buy one."

"Sell." The woman nodded.

"How much is 1 catty?"

"I'm an authentic local chicken. I grew up eating millet and corn. It costs 40 yuan a catty when I get it in the town. Come and buy it, it's 1 yuan."

"Okay. Help me pick a fat one..."

The man in the room came over: "Who is it?"

"The neighbor on the mountain." The woman pointed to Gao Shanping and said.

"Hi brother, my name is Ye Mo, I just moved here, and I will live here from now on." Ye Mo said as he took out a cigarette and lit one for his elder brother.

"Hello. My name is Liu Bin, and my wife's name is Zheng Xiaomei."

"Brother Liu..." Ye Mo shouted with a smile: "By the way, are you busy during this time?"

"Just some work in the fields."

"I want to plant some seedlings. If the eldest brother and sister-in-law are not busy, they can come to my side to help. The price is negotiable." Ye Mo said.

"For cutting seedlings, what exactly do you do?"

"Cut the branches of the branches. Cut the branches to 15 centimeters, and cut the bottom... Then I make soil cups with organic fertilizers. I work in the warehouse and will not be exposed to the sun."

"Well, it's quite easy. We have time... wages, you see."

"I just came here, so I don't know much about the wages here. Do you think it's okay? From 06:30 am to 260:[-] noon, and from [-]:[-] pm to [-]:[-], [-] yuan per person per day. It's not heavy work, no need Labor." Ye Mo said.In my hometown, hiring someone to work basically starts at [-] yuan.But doing heavy work...

Just insert cup seedlings, this job is very easy.

"Okay." Liu Bin nodded: "Just two people, or?"

"The work of cutting seedlings is a little urgent, and I still need some manpower. I will look for it later."

"How many people do you want? I'll call for you."

"10 people."

"Okay, I'll call for you, and I'll be there tomorrow morning."

"Thank you, brother." Ye Mo clasped his fists and said with a smile.

"This time period is slack, and we have no other work except watering the orchard." Liu Bin said with a smile.

"I still have to thank you. I just came here and I'm not familiar with the place, so I will have to trouble Brother Liu for some things in the future."

Zheng Xiaomei caught the native chicken and weighed it, 3 catties and 3 taels.

This is just free-range free-range chicken, black-bone chicken... Liu Bin settled Ye Mo's account and only charged him 100 yuan.

Zheng Xiaomei said just now that it was 40 yuan per catty, but in fact it could not be sold at such a high price, and it was between 1 yuan and 35 yuan in the town.

Ye Mo's family also raised chickens before, and they raised chai chickens, which sold for more than 20 yuan per catty.

Chai chicken is also free-range, but it is not considered native chicken.

Chicken is a breed, not a breeding mode.Except for a few native chicken breeds, most native chickens can grow to about three catties, and the larger ones can grow to four catties.

Ye Mo used WeChat to transfer the money, and left with the chicken.

Back on the mountain, Ye Mo threw the chicken into the cage and made lunch.

The sun was very strong at noon, so Ye Mo went back upstairs and turned on the air conditioner, lying on the bed and using Douyin.

I brushed and fell asleep.

Wake up after three o'clock, take the seeds of the grass of paradise and go out.

The grass seeds I bought before were not sown, but the news of land acquisition came.

Drive to the durian tree.

There are more than [-] durian trees that have been transported intact. They are all big trees that bear fruit, and the branches are cut off to keep them intact.

The remaining durian tree is only 2 meters high, a stump with large branches grafted on it.

Durian is relatively heavy, and the fruiting branches are also required to be relatively thick.

After transplanting, the density of durian trees is 8X8 meters, leaving a lot of room for growth.

There have been several thunderstorms this year, but the thunder was loud and the rain was light.

It never rained heavily.

Calculate the time, there should be heavy rain.

The weather forecast also said that there will be heavy rain...

Ye Mo mixed grass seeds with organic fertilizer and sprinkled it on the ground, just waiting for a heavy rain.

After four o'clock, the car came down the mountain.

Ye Ran was driving her dolphin and braked when she saw Ye Mo: "Brother."

Ye Mo put down what he was doing and walked over: "Where are the things?"

"Behind."

A van came from behind, and a pickup.

"Brother." Chen Chen got off the pickup truck and shouted.

"I bought a new car." Ye Mo nodded with a smile.

"10,000+ cars..." Chen Chen laughed.

Go to the warehouse and unload things.

These are the water pipes that Ye Mo bought online.

水管内径25X2.3毫米，国标加厚。一根管子的长度是200米……370元1根。

Ye Mo bought a total of 60 sticks and packed them into a large cart.

There are joints, nozzles, glue, etc. on the car.

Ye Mo asked someone about the price of drip irrigation for orchards before, and the cost of drip irrigation per mu should be around [-].

Then Ye Mo searched the Internet for water pipes and other things, and decided to do it himself, to do sprinkler irrigation.

If you do it yourself, you can do it within 2000 yuan per mu.The quality is not bad compared with those who do orchard irrigation.even better...

If you can do it yourself, try to do it yourself.

After unloading the things, Ye Mo pulled Ye Ran and Chen Chen to help him work.

The density of durian tree planting is small, and the land area is large.

571 durian trees, covering an area of ​​55 acres.

"You are so rich, why can't you find an easy job?" Ye Ran complained against the sun.

"Do you understand the principle of bitterness before sweetness?" Ye Mo gave her a white look.

"This place where the birds don't shit, I think... there is really no need to invest so much." Ye Ran said: "You said to go to Hainan earlier, I felt pretty good, why did I suddenly change my mind."

Ye Mo thought about going to Hainan, where it is tropical, with abundant annual rainfall...it should be a good place.

But in Hainan, the only thing Ye Mo can grow is durian.

As for other fruit trees, there are all over there.

Ye Mo doesn't know how long it will take for the future durians to bear fruit again.

All things considered, Ye Mo chose to stay.

Here, Ye Mo can plant coconut trees.If the cultivation is successful, the price of coconuts in their local area will definitely be more expensive than those in Hainan.

An adult coconut tree is said to be able to produce about 50 trees.

1 coconut trees are planted on 25 mu of land.

The coconuts produced here are sold locally...

It should not be difficult to sell for 15 yuan and 20 yuan each.

As long as coconuts can be produced in a large area, it will be built into a leisure and sightseeing orchard by then, which will definitely attract many tourists.

Coconut trees are not uncommon, but in Huacheng, the large area of ​​coconut groves is very interesting.

To be honest, fruit farmers are not easy to do.

Except for some fruit farmers who take advantage of the production area, they can make money.The vast majority of fruit farmers are not as good as working part-time to earn more.

As an orchard, if you want to make money, you must have your own characteristics.
