Chapter 358 Flyers
From the time Zhang Daniu discovered the first half-red shabu shabu, 49 greenhouses entered the harvest period together. The scene inside the greenhouses can be said to be the same every day. It only takes three or five days. Looking around the greenhouses is All red.

Because shabu shabu is extremely rich in capsaicin, you must wear masks, gloves and other equipment when picking, and the skin on your whole body must not be exposed to the air.

On the first day of picking, most people didn’t take this reminder to heart and entered the greenhouse to pick in long clothes and trousers. Within half an hour after entering, their faces were full of runny noses and tears.
With this lesson learned, during the next two days of picking, everyone wrapped themselves up tightly with three layers inside and three layers outside. It was so tight that even bees couldn't find a place to bite when they came. The mature shabu shabu spicy food was harvested.

At the beginning of January, in the middle of winter, the soft sun in the sky was not enough to dry these watery hotpots. After drying for three days in a row, the moisture content dropped from 90.00% to [-]%.

However, Xu An had predicted this situation and ordered a dryer and pepper grinder in advance. On the fourth day after the shabu shabu harvest, he arrived belatedly at the Xu's Food Processing Factory in Hezipu. , and it was installed and debugged successfully at ten o'clock that evening.

The news that Xu's Food Processing Factory provided drying services and officially started purchasing shabu shabu spicy food spread throughout Hezibu that night.

At five o'clock the next morning, three hours before the factory opened, there was a long queue outside the door. There were groups of three or five people in the queue, all carrying or carrying large bags of urea. bag
"Hey, Daniel, you're actually the first in line! Didn't you come here and queue up after hearing the news?"

"That's not possible, it's only half an hour earlier than you." Zhang Daniu sniffed sharply, and explained intermittently while breathing into his frozen hands: "This pepper is placed all over the room, and I can't sleep no matter how hard I sleep. Be practical and come here early.”

"Oh." This person didn't mean this. After hearing Zhang Daniu's explanation, his eyes fell on the seven or eight urea bags in front of Zhang Daniu. He pretended to be surprised and said: "Daniu, you are doing something incredible! The first batch After collecting seven or eight bags, this must be seven or eight hundred kilograms!"

"Hey, my first batch has grown a lot, but not much after that." Zhang Daniu tried his best to be humble, but the corners of his mouth that couldn't stop rising revealed the joy in his heart.

"Come on, everyone was planted by Professor Wei, who doesn't know who is who!" The man spat at Daniel, and then sighed: "After today, Daniel, you are finally done!"

"It's hard to say, it's hard to say"

Although he spoke uncertain words, Zhang Daniu's eyes were full of hope.

After picking the last red pepper in the greenhouse last night, Zhang Daniu was at home, using the 760-pound old scale handed down from his grandfather or his grandfather, who had been weighing it since eight o'clock in the evening. It was not until two o'clock in the morning that all the deviled peppers collected were weighed. They weighed [-] eight pounds in total!

The water content of devil pepper is relatively high. It takes ten kilograms of wet peppers to produce one kilogram of dry peppers. The 760 eight kilograms of wet peppers can be dried into 76 kilograms of dried peppers!
A pound of dried chili costs 62 yuan, and 76 pounds is 760 yuan!
This is just the first harvest!
According to Professor Wei's estimate, the devil peppers can still grow into three or four batches before the Spring Festival, and they will not be completely harvested until the end of January!
You can earn almost 5000 yuan from one batch of harvest, and you can harvest five or six batches later. Even if the last two or three batches of harvest will become less and less, you can still safely pass the five hundred catties mark. That’s thirty-one thousand yuan!

In just four months, I earned the money that only took three or four years to earn!
In other words, after the New Year is over and all the devil peppers in the greenhouse are harvested, the family's past debts can be paid off!
When the next batch of devil peppers grows, which is in May and June, the money borrowed from the country can be paid back!The family will no longer owe money!
With another wave of planting later, the house at home can be demolished and rebuilt, and a big house that is warm in winter and cool in summer can be built. No need to worry about rainy days anymore.
Just as Zhang Daniu was thinking about it, Xu Heping, Li Sixin and others hurried to the door of the factory. When they saw the neat and long queue at the door, they suddenly became angry.

"Didn't I say yesterday that the door would not open until eight o'clock today? Didn't I tell you not to come so early! What are you doing, ah! What kind of weather is this? You are risking your life, aren't you?"

Xu Heping was swearing, but his movements were very neat. He opened the factory door in three strokes, five divided by two, and lit up all the electric lights and small suns in the factory.

Those who lined up at the door moved, lifted, and pushed, and poured into the factory, filling the relatively spacious factory building to the max.
"Zhang Daniu, 760 five kilograms, ten points and one ha, remember 76 kilograms. Next!"

"Li Xiufen, 630 kilograms, mark 63 kilograms for the next one!" "Li Guilan, 710 kilograms"

"."

After Xu Heping's weighing and Li Sixin's registration, everyone took the newly received receipts and exchanged them for the corresponding cash from the two clan uncles in Xujiacun.

From the moment I saw the first half-red pepper, I kept imagining the scene in front of me.
But when this scene really became a reality, Zhang Daniu still couldn't hold it back, his eyes suddenly turned red, tears rolled in his eyes, one drop after another fell down, and landed on the wad of chili peppers in his hand. On top of the red banknotes
He vaguely wiped the tears from his eyes, stuffed the banknotes into the innermost layer of his clothes, and after striding out of the factory, Zhang Daniu walked straight towards the mountain behind the village.

After passing through the forest with only dead branches, walking along the path with yellow mud and snow, and crossing such a high mountain, from a distance, I saw a dozen figures walking around and busy in the wilderness.
"Daniu, you're here. Come here quickly. We haven't farmed in more than ten years, and the trees and bushes have grown a lot. It takes a lot of effort to clean them up."

After the man finished speaking, he saw Zhang Daniu still standing motionless, and he opened his mouth again and shouted: "Daniu, are you coming or not? If you don't like it, go back. Don't just stand there and watch."

"Come on, come on!" Zhang Daniu once again raised his hand to wipe the tears from his eyes, and hurriedly stepped forward to join the team clearing the wasteland.

This wasteland is the greenhouse planting area that Xu An signed with the Hongshan Town Government not long ago, and construction will start next spring.

"The administrative department has a total of 23 meals. Sister Luo Min, please take a look. If there is no problem, please sign for it. Thank you!"

"One, two, three 23, the quantity is no problem!"

After Luo Min checked the quantity and found no problem, he reached out to take the receipt form from the delivery boy's hand, and signed his name on the form with flying colors.

After handing the receipt back to the delivery boy, Luo Min found the two meals with his and Ding Nan's names on them and returned to his work station.

"No, this is yours. I got it back for you. You're welcome!"

"I didn't plan on saying thank you either."

After the two bickered, they eagerly opened the packaging bag and took out the lunch box to enjoy.

But as soon as she unwrapped the bag, Luo Min saw a completely unfamiliar flyer inside. Just when she was about to pick up the flyer and take a closer look, Ding Nan next door had already read out the contents of the flyer.

“Qianhai Town Maritime Hot Spring Resort will have its grand opening on January 19th.
360-degree sea view hot spring. The hot spring water comes from the seabed rock formations below 300 meters. The water temperature is 43 degrees.
