"How? Have you figured it out?"

"How much output is there? It shouldn't be bad."

At this time, in the village committee compound, all the cadres were surrounding several people from the finance department asking about today's watermelon harvest.

Wen Yan, the Minister of Finance, smiled and put his calculations back, "Don't worry, our base has planted one acre and a half of watermelons this year. Today, several groups combined to harvest a total of 670 six kilograms of watermelons.

Basically, most of the watermelons weigh about eight or nine catties, and the smaller ones weigh more than six catties. Some big watermelons can even weigh more than ten catties. On average, we collected more than 1000 this time. a watermelon. "

"So much? Did you calculate it wrong?" Village Chief Li suddenly exclaimed, obviously a little bit overwhelmed.

Old Man Wen was also a little surprised, "This fruit can also have such a high yield? The process of planting this watermelon didn't take much trouble. I didn't expect that the harvest volume is almost the same as that of grain."

Xia Ning did say before that the yield of watermelons was very high, but he did not expect the harvest to be so good, it was completely beyond his expectations, and this was the first time he had seen a high-yield fruit.

Fruits in Dongchu have always been scarce and expensive. If we look at Dongchu's fruit market, wouldn't their base be able to make a lot of money just by growing watermelons?
Especially for those farmers who can't grow food, if they can grow watermelons, there won't be so many hungry poor people in this world.

Miss Xia is really a living Bodhisattva!

It is all thanks to her that the sand can be turned from waste to treasure.

If it wasn't for the watermelon she brought, they would never know that the sandy land, which they see as waste, can grow high-yield grain and fruits. It would be hard to believe if they couldn't tell, right?
After all, in everyone's perception, the sandy land is basically a waste, and everyone would rather open up wasteland in another place than spend too much energy on the sandy land.

But now it has been repeatedly proved that the sandy land is also a treasure land for growing crops. As long as the right crops are planted, this sandy land that everyone dislikes can also grow high yields. In the past, they had little knowledge and did not know how good the sandy land is, so they missed it. land.

Fortunately, it's not too late. Now they have fully seen the benefits of the sandy land, and at the same time realized the importance of the sandy land. As long as the right crops are planted, the crops grown in the sandy land are even better than good fields.

No, this is a living example.

Seeing everyone's disbelief, Wen Yan was not annoyed. On the contrary, he understood their feelings very well. Not to mention they were shocked, even he was also taken aback during the calculation process.

This output is really surprising.

You must know that this is only one-fifth of an acre of land, which is equivalent to a yield of more than 6000 catties per acre of land. Isn't it surprising.

"Really, I've counted it three times, and the result can't be wrong. Besides, even if I'm really wrong, you guys have seen how the watermelon harvest is today. Isn't it clear at a glance?"

Village head Li slapped his thigh fiercely, "This is a bumper harvest! This watermelon is so good!"

"I really didn't expect this sandy land to be so suitable for growing watermelons." Mr. Wen sighed.

Su Lianyinglue, director of the logistics department, said regretfully, "It's a pity that we planted too little this year. If we set aside a few more plots to grow watermelons, then our base will be able to earn a large amount of high income just relying on watermelons. "

"Yes, I didn't know this watermelon could grow so well. I had other planting tasks so I didn't take care of them." Bai Yufu, now the deputy minister of the Ministry of Education, echoed.

Since the school was formally established, the education department of the base has also been established, and some time ago, a special department for medical treatment and business was also set up.

Now the base's organizational framework is basically set up. Nine departments are in charge of all aspects of the base's affairs, ensuring that the base people live a happy and prosperous life.

"It's nothing, just accumulate experience this year, and grow some more next year. At that time, we will distribute some seeds to each family and plant them together in the whole village. Anyway, we don't have many other things in Baiyun Village, and we will have more on the spot."

Director Song Ji thinks more openly, everything is a process, how can it be done well at the beginning, this year's harvest of nearly [-] catties is actually very good.

Xia Ning raised her hand sarcastically, "Um...haven't I said before that watermelons can be grown three or four times a year?"

I can't blame her for this matter, it was really too busy during that time, and the things in her porcelain basin were too complicated, it was impossible for her to explain everything in detail and tell everyone clearly and plainly.

She basically told everyone what she knew and could think of, but this person's memory is also limited, and it is inevitable that she will be negligent.

"what?"

"Three or four times a year? Really?"

"If we can really grow three or four crops, then this watermelon will not only be high-yielding, it will be extremely high-yielding!"

Hearing Xia Ning's words, everyone was startled, and all showed expressions of disbelief.

Father Song hurriedly asked, "Xiao Ning, can this watermelon really be planted so many times? Will the yield be affected? Or can it reach such a yield every time?"

It seems that people like them have too little knowledge and their knowledge is too narrow. They take it for granted that many crops are grown once a year.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, they have even grown winter wheat, so what else can’t you believe?

Xia Ning replied, "Under normal circumstances, it is possible to sow three times a year. If the care and planning are good, it is also possible to sow four times a year."

"This watermelon is really a big treasure." Uncle Song exclaimed.

Father Song said with a smile, "I'm very satisfied if I can sow three times a year, and I don't dare to think about it four times."

"Yes, if it's not difficult, it would be appropriate for our base to sow seeds three times a year. Let's accumulate some experience first, and then try to challenge four crops in the future."

Song Anbang opened his mouth to talk about his thoughts. Although he doesn't know much about agriculture, he also knows the truth that haste makes waste. Now his village has just had some experience.

So far, it has been quite successful this time, but we should not act too hastily. If we take too many steps too fast, we will easily fall down. It is better to grow steadily step by step.

"Yes, what Anbang said is right, it's pretty good to be able to grow Sancha within a year." Mr. Wen agreed.

Father Song looked at Xia Ning, "Xiao Ning, then you need to worry about this matter."

"It's okay. With the first planting experience, it will be much easier later, so let's start planting the second wave of watermelons this month."

Xia Ning responded cheerfully, saying that he had already learned all the knowledge that needed to be taught during the last planting, and there was no need for him to lead the team in the fields this time, so subsequent sowing would not be a problem.
