Next, the group began to discuss the distribution of the watermelons harvested this year.

There are more than 1000 watermelons, even if each household is given one, it is completely affordable. After all, this is the first time watermelons are harvested in the village, and except for the Song family, basically no one in the village has ever eaten watermelons. What does watermelon taste like? Do not know at all.

How could the base allow this to happen?
In the future, a large number of watermelons will be planted in the village, and it has even been confirmed that watermelons will be sold to the outside world. Maybe watermelons will become a major industry in the base in the future.

As the origin of growing watermelons, wouldn't it be ridiculous if people knew that there are still people in the base who don't even know what watermelons taste like?

What's more, the current base does not lack this thing, but what is more scarce is manpower. Only the more manpower is invested, can more industries be promoted.

Therefore, for today's base, manpower is one of the most precious resources.

Besides, if we take the family as a unit, the current base has less than 300 households. Even if more than 700 watermelons are distributed, there will still be more than [-] watermelons.

Secondly, two hundred watermelons are reserved as materials for work points to exchange for purchases, so that the villagers have the opportunity to eat more watermelons with the ability of each family, which is also an incentive in disguise.

That's it, there are more than 500 watermelons under the name of the base, and they can still earn a considerable income if they buy this amount.

For ordinary people, buying a whole watermelon may not be affordable, but if it is cut and sold in pieces, then everyone has the opportunity to taste it.

Especially in the hot summer, this watermelon can relieve the heat and heat. It is so refreshing to eat, and no one will worry about buying it.

**
The next day, the village committee started distributing watermelons to every household in the village, and selected larger watermelons so that everyone could eat more.

At the same time, a redemption notice was posted in the village committee compound, and the whole village was extremely lively for a while.

Xia Ning also summoned Li San back immediately. The watermelons just picked from the fields must of course be sold while they are fresh.

"The first batch of you can try to get [-] watermelons. It's best to cut a watermelon and give it to those big families to taste. Don't be reluctant. As the saying goes, if you are reluctant, children can't catch wolves. As long as they taste it, Only then will you know whether this thing is good or not.

Our watermelon can be regarded as the only one in the entire East Chu. As long as they have tasted it, they will buy it on their own initiative without us spending too much time promoting it. "

Xia Ning began to pass on modern marketing techniques to them again. This time, they planned to start selling watermelons from wealthy households in the county and town, making a lot of money from them first, and then slowly selling to the common people. With the wealthy households If you get your name out in front of them, they will be more receptive.

"Okay, let's remember." Li San listened very seriously, without a trace of impatience. To him, this was all previous experience, and what he learned was what he earned.

He is now more and more proud of being a member of the base. Their base is really too powerful. Which one is not a good thing?
Let's just talk about this watermelon. I was afraid that even if I had money, I couldn't eat it.

But now the base allows ordinary people to eat such rare and high-priced fruits.

He is deeply proud of what the base has helped the common people achieve.

It took two days for the base to arrange for the watermelons in and outside the village. After every household had eaten watermelons, the base began to arrange for the second wave of watermelon planting in the village without stopping.

I really don’t want to waste any time.

After all, the village committee also wants to try to plant four crops of watermelon in the future. This year can be regarded as an experiment, so they naturally have to plan the time carefully.

This watermelon can be divided into three types: early ripening, medium ripening and late ripening. Early ripening is sown in March and harvested in June and July, while medium ripening is sown in May and June and harvested in mid-to-late August. That's why the village committee is so eager. I am afraid of missing the best time for sowing.

As for the late-maturing varieties, they are sown in July and harvested around September.

But if you want to sow the fourth batch of watermelons, you will have to worry more. You can sow seedlings in a greenhouse in December or January of the next year, and you can pick them in late March. This is Greenhouse watermelons in early spring.

While the folks in Baiyun Village were busy planting watermelons, the base welcomed new residents for the first time in a long time. It had been about two or three months since the last time it received new residents.

This is also the longest interval since the base accepted new recruits.

Qiao Xin immediately reported the news to her young lady. Her young lady didn't have to go out, but she had to know what happened at the base.

"Finally a newcomer, how many people are there this time?"

Hearing this news, Xia Ning was also very happy. If there were no new blood to join the base, she was worried that the village committee would send people out to promote themselves.

Based on the planning and development of the base, no matter how many people join, it won't be too much.

Qiao Xin estimated, "I think there are quite a lot of people in the team, there should be more than 200 people."

"Let's go and have a look." Xia Ning got up and walked out.

It had been a long time since anyone came to the village, and she was curious about where all the people who came this time came from.

Soon the two of them came to the compound of the village committee. At this time, the empty dam in the courtyard was already full of people, and they saw that the clothes and appearance of the people were not much different from those of the refugees fleeing disaster in Shanzhou.

However, although their clothes looked a bit shabby and sloppy, such an image was inevitable when they were fleeing, and it was even safer this way.

But their spirits are better than those of the previous refugees.

Xia Ning stayed silently behind the crowd and listened for a while, gathering some information from their conversations.

It turned out that they had escaped from Ju Village in Guanzhou, and the reason why they came to Baiyun Village was because they happened to know the news from the Shanzhou people who fled to Guanzhou.

Xia Ning and the others had helped many fleeing people in Shanzhou before, but not all of them would choose to go to Baiyun Village in the end, because they still had relatives who could rely on them.

Under such a choice, they naturally give priority to familiar relatives and friends. After all, Baiyun Village is a completely strange place to them.

However, although they did not choose to follow Baiyun Village, they still received the kindness of Baiyun Village and learned that there was such a place that could accept poor people for free.

What they didn't expect was that not long after they settled in Guanzhou, an accident happened again!

Drought has occurred in a large area of ​​Guanzhou. From early spring to May, there was not even a drop of rain. The villagers bit the bullet and relied on the spring sowing, and then they barely watered the fields with the water from the river and well.

But even so, it only lasted until May. The villagers reluctantly harvested everything that could be harvested in the fields in advance, because there were really no extra people to irrigate, and people still had to rely on water to survive.

Seeing this situation, the Shaanzhou people who had fled had experience, and they immediately encouraged the villagers to flee as soon as possible, otherwise, this person would probably die of thirst later.

In addition, the Shanzhou people deliberately publicized the goodness of Baiyun Village, so this group of people defected.

happy weekend~
