Build a farm from the mountains

Chapter 235 Selling Melons and Moving House
When the big and small blue wolves heard the bear, their eyes were full of fierceness. When they heard the old man, they seemed to feel the master's reluctance.

They lay down rubbing their heads on their hands.

Wu Hao squatted for a while, and waited until he was in a better mood before picking up a piece of watermelon to eat. The black-skinned watermelon has a special sweet taste.

The melons of his family are no better than those of others, but they are definitely not inferior. In fact, to grow watermelons, you should choose half-sand and half-soil land. The drier the year, the sweeter the watermelon.

There is sandy land in front of the new landlord, and a greenhouse is being built there, and melons will be planted there in winter.

He looked at the little boy, lying under the umbrella and squinting his eyes, he must not be sleeping, because the little bare feet were shaking.

The child doesn't lie down all the time, and only starts to bask in the sun when he is tired from pulling weeds.

Wu Weiguo has been watching the watermelons in the field, because birds like magpies and crows will come down to eat them, and they will chatter one by one.

Seeing his son, he walked over and said, "Most of the watermelons are ripe. There is one that weighs more than 50 catties, a few that weigh thirty or forty catties, and the rest are all ten or twenty catties."

"I guess it won't grow much more. Let me roughly calculate that the watermelon can weigh [-] catties, and the cantaloupe can weigh [-] catties."

"From the beginning of tidying up a piece of land to the present, I have been busy for several months before I made a bear's gallbladder money."

"A lot!" Wu Hao wasn't just talking about money. He was afraid that the melons would not grow well for the first time, so he purposely left the seedlings a little wider.

There are many factors that affect the yield of watermelon. This year's planting yield is not as good as it will be in the future, but some varieties of watermelon can also produce about [-] catties.

The output of black-skinned watermelon itself is low, and the money earned is even more. After removing the cost, it earns more than 500 yuan, which is equivalent to a regular worker's annual salary.

Growing melons to make money is also tiring. The cost of three months of busy work is not low. If the cold air suddenly comes, all the melon seedlings will die, and there will be no salary left for a year.

Farmers really depend on the sky for food.

h Long Province has abundant rain, and the land is prone to pests and diseases, but it is also good. The water resources are not only abundant, but the water quality is also good.

Take Lake Baikal in the past as an example, with an annual fish output of 30 billion catties.

30 billion!The average water depth is more than 700 meters, and the deepest point is 400 meters, which is close to the depth of [-] floors.

With such a large fish production, what will happen to the water?Now it can be quoted directly without diarrhea.

And there are many mountain springs in the mountains, forests and wetlands in province H, the water quality is no worse than that of that small country, and the cold air purifies the water quality.

The water quality ranks among the top three in the country, and it is sure to be able to breed animals and plants no worse than little devils.

Wu Hao picked up another piece of watermelon and said, "I don't expect to make money from this melon. We mainly rely on the greenhouse in winter."

"I'll send some to Zhao Yunchang and my brother in a while, and then to my grandma's house, and let every family in the village take about ten catties of melons back to eat."

"There are also township leaders and forest farm leaders. No one will make a fuss about sending a watermelon. We can't just use others and say nothing."

"They may not dare to accept watermelons when they are worth a lot in winter, but give them more in summer. If everyone adds up, a thousand catties is enough to give away."

Wu Weiguo nodded, if he wanted to give it away, he would give it away, and he couldn't let go of one, the relationship was all about walking.

The excavator in the forest farm will be sent to work as long as it is idle. This is not personal and cannot be used casually. The leader is very interesting.

Aunt Zhang heard this and said: "The village is divided into four or five hundred catties, that's more than 100 yuan! Let's divide it less."

A child's voice came: "I am a good landlord, I have to buy wine and meat for the long-term workers, and I also give watermelons to the long-term workers."

The three of them turned their heads and saw that the little kid didn't even open his eyes, and he was shaking his little feet and patting his stomach lightly like an uncle.

She really thought of herself as a landlord.

Aunt Zhang took a deep breath, and decided to stay away from the little girl. Whenever she spoke, the child would answer her, and he could still gag her.

He is a landlord, and he can divide it up if he wants to. If she says anything else, the little girl will no longer take out her pockets, and will point to her house and car.

The father and father didn't care, and the child had a big opinion on Aunt Zhang.

Wu Weiguo picked up a piece of watermelon and asked, "Should I grow cabbage when it's sold out?"

"This land is raised." Wu Hao pointed to the south and said, "Closer to the forest, plant two acres of cabbage to feed pigs."

Wu Weiguo glared: "The place where you plant it is to feed wild boars! Are you a tiger?"

"Tiger?" Wu Hao sneered: "Even if two mu of cabbage produces 400 catties, it will only sell for [-] yuan."

"Do you believe that I can exchange 4000 catties of cabbage for [-] catties of wild pork? This year's wild pork costs at least [-] cents, which is [-] yuan!"

Cabbage planted in July matures around September, and the corn starts to be starched in that season, which is the time to attract wild boars and blind bears.

Bears were few, but wild boars were plentiful, for cabbages were much better to pigs than acorns.

Wu Weiguo understood what it meant: "Tomorrow, I will find someone to plow that piece of land together."

The growth of small cabbage seedlings can attract wild boars, and there is no need to chase after fertilizers. The land that can grow tall grass has good soil fertility.

Seeing that his father had no objection, Wu Hao went back and drove over to pack watermelons and cantaloupe to deliver to relatives, friends and leaders. The village can only share them when the watermelons are about to run out.

On the morning of the third day, after filling the melons, he waved to the little boy: "Sell melons with me."

"Let's go~" Xiao Doubao immediately ran to the car door and waited. She thought selling melons must be interesting.

Wu Hao put her in the car and returned to the driver's seat, drove to Zhao Yunchang to borrow the platform scale, and then went straight to the town.

I didn't want to compete with the watermelon sellers in the village, so I taught my sister how to speak on the way, and when I drove to the town, I found that there were also many melon sellers in the market.

It was not easy to make money, so he drove around to the gate of the town mansion, where there were many residents and shops.

There are a lot of people in the vicinity, and there are many small vendors. Horse-drawn carriages can be parked nearby temporarily, but horse-drawn carriages and large carts are not allowed to occupy the road to sell things.

Wu Hao drove into the compound and delivered seven or eight watermelons to the people in the small building. They were treated equally, and everyone could share two pieces together.

There is no way for anyone to give this place away, and no one will want it.

He drove out of the gate and stopped on the opposite side, got out of the car, carried his sister down, and opened the side compartment.

Put some watermelons on the side of the car, put the umbrella between several watermelons and open it, and put a small bench under the umbrella.

Cut open a watermelon with a knife and put it next to it. When I got out of the car, I used my strength to move the scale down. I hugged the little girl up and said, "Sell it."

"Okay!" Xiao Doubao nodded heavily, just at this time a woman came over, she was not stage fright at all.

She poked her head out from under the umbrella and shouted sweetly, "Auntie, buy a watermelon."

The woman wanted to buy but was hesitant. She walked this way subconsciously, and only after hearing the voice, she looked at the child carefully, and said to herself, "The little girl is so cute."

She smiled and asked, "You sell watermelons at such a young age, what about your adults?"

Xiaodoubao pointed at the front of the car: "I'm on the cauldron."

With a big tongue, the woman smiled even bigger, looked at the front of the car and complained: "How can such a small child sell things!"

Turning around and asking, "Is it sweet?"

Xiaodoubao thought for a while: "I don't know."

She picked up a piece of watermelon next to it, took a bite, chewed twice and nodded: "It's sweeter than yesterday's one."

After eating the cut triangular pieces of watermelon in a few bites, I picked up a piece and handed it over: "Auntie, try it."

When someone took it, she picked up another piece and ate it. After eating six or seven yuan, she raised her head and hiccupped. Seeing the woman staring blankly, she asked, "Auntie, why don't you eat it? It's so sweet!"

The woman looked at the watermelon juice on her face and couldn't help laughing, "You really can eat it!"

Xiaodoubao lowered her head in embarrassment, patted her belly and said in a low voice, "I ate too much for breakfast, and I can still eat a few yuan."

"Haha." The woman was amused by her, this child is very interesting, she tasted the watermelon and nodded: "This melon is not bad, choose a big one for me."

"Okay!" Xiaodoubao stood up and looked at the big watermelon next to him, tilted his head and sat down again after thinking about it, and said with a smile, "Auntie, you can pick it yourself, I can't handle it."

She is very aware of her power.

The woman smiled and said, "Okay, I will pick it myself."

At this time, an old man came by and asked, "How much is a catty? Can it be cheaper?"

"Twenty-five cents a catty." Xiaodoubao scratched his head and thought for a while before sticking out a little finger and said, "It's a penny cheaper."

Ten catties is ten cents cheaper, which is not a lot. The uncle looked at the car and asked, "Whose family do you belong to?"

Xiaodoubao raised her head: "I am the little landlord of Old Wu's family."

She changed her name again.

The uncle smiled and said, "I know who's, I'll pick the bigger one too."

This car looks like an old man's style, and the only one in the whole town is Wu Pao Shou, and everyone knows it.

It was only his car that dared to park wherever he wanted in the town.

Xiaodoubao stood up, stretched her neck and said with a smile when she saw someone, "Master bought a watermelon, uncle bought a watermelon, young lady bought a watermelon, it's so sweet and delicious."

The four-year-old shouted sweetly, the old man would wave his hand and refuse to buy another person. Seeing such a cute little girl, he was a little embarrassed to refuse.

He cursed secretly: "My lord is really nothing!"

Walked over and chatted with the little girl before starting to pick watermelons.

There were too many people coming over, Wu Hao got out of the car to help with the weighing, and received a lot of blank stares, the older ones would complain that he made the children work.

The young man would greet him with a smile, and pretended to be no one with him.

There were a lot of people coming out of the store at noon, and a lot of watermelons were sold. People in the courtyard knew that watermelons were sweet, so they would buy one no matter what they considered.

The melons were also selling very fast, and the melons were sold out before dark, so he took his sister to buy something and drove home.

On the third day, I went to the other side of the town to change two places to sell melons. On the fourth day, I went back to the village to sell melons all morning, and the melons at home were basically sold out.

Get rid of the ones that need to be distributed to the village, and keep some immature ones for yourself to eat.

After moving to the new house and setting off firecrackers, at noon the next day, Guan Zilong and his brother rode bicycles to the front of his new house and exclaimed: "You can see a row of brick houses at the intersection of the mountain, it's really rich!"

"After you work hard, you can build better ones." After Wu Hao finished speaking, he greeted the two of them to enter the house.

Guan Zilong led his younger brother to follow behind and nodded secretly, and he could make money if he worked hard with others.

This is not the same meaning here, he understood, went into the house to visit around, sat down and chatted for a while before asking: "When shall we enter the mountain?"

Wu Hao replied: "I will go tomorrow morning."

It is the most dangerous time to enter the mountain, everything is revived, the woods are full of the smell of flowers, and the smell of rotting leaves, the dog's nose is useless at all.

They can't hear well when the wind blows, unless you go hunting in the wild hills, where there are fewer bushes and trees, and there are fewer animals of the same kind.

Only when the weather is cold and the leaves fall can you hunt in autumn until the beginning of summer.

Now when you go into the mountains to collect, it is safe to go to four people to get four guns, and you can recite more mountain goods.

Live in the new house at night, after dinner in the morning, Wu Hao said: "Father, give me a drive."
