Chapter 114 Planting Fruit Trees

After leaving the kitchen, they breathed a sigh of relief. They had seen what the young boss was capable of. Fortunately, they were more attentive to their work. Otherwise, if the young boss got angry, would they end up like that teacup? into powder.

Qibao would return to the hall and say to Shopkeeper Zhang: "Yes, you are managing well. Keep up the hard work. This month, each person will be given an extra tael of silver as a reward. We will continue to do so in the future."

Shopkeeper Zhang immediately said happily: "Thank you very much, boss. I would also like to express my gratitude to everyone. Don't worry, boss, I will do my best."

Qibao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then I'll leave first. You can go back and do your work!"

Qibao and the old man finished their work and returned to Xujiacun.

As soon as she entered the house, Ms. Wang asked, "How is it? Is there a suitable yard?"

The old man said: "We have already bought it. It is larger than the one we live in now. It has a three-in-one courtyard and cost 750 taels of silver."

Wang said: "Why buy such a big yard? We don't live there often, so it would be a pity to leave it empty!"

The old man said: "Who said no one lives here? It's not a problem for Wenwu and the others to live in a barbecue restaurant. It's not suitable for studying. Isn't it just right to live in?" He told the family what Qibao said.

Others think this is the truth, but they don't struggle with this issue.

Wang said: "I went to the land that our family bought in the morning. Villagers often collect firewood there. There are no weeds, so there is no need to find someone to weed."

In the afternoon, Uncle Xu and the village chief came back.

"I have already told the village chiefs of several nearby villages. They are all very happy and said that they will let the men from the village come over and start work tomorrow." The village chief said.

Uncle Xu continued: "I still found the bricks and tiles to build the workshop from the same company that delivered them to our house last time. They said they would be delivered early tomorrow morning."

"Second and Third, you two will take people to dig a hole in the ground tomorrow. The fruit saplings will be delivered tomorrow and they can be planted immediately." The old man said.

"Brother, I will come over to help tomorrow, just take care of the food!" the village chief said.

"Then I'd like to thank the village chief!" The old man thanked him.

After everyone came together to discuss it, the village chief took his leave and went back.

Early the next morning, as soon as the Xu family finished eating, the village chief came, followed by a large group of men.

The village chief said: "This is a worker from a nearby village. He came here early in the morning."

The old man looked at these people. Many of them were men who came to Xujiacun to build roads last time, and some of them had unfamiliar faces.

The old man also saw two people, the two uncles of the children at home, one was Li Fugui, the second daughter-in-law's brother, and the other was Zhang Chunxi, the eldest daughter-in-law's brother.

The old man asked the second and third children to take everyone to Pingdi. He was going to the town today to find someone to bring those fruit seedlings back. Qibao was afraid that something might go wrong, so he went with him.

This time Uncle Xu drove a carriage with them.

When he arrived in the town, the old man found a person who specialized in delivering goods and negotiated a price with him. The man followed the old man with his own fleet and went to the new house together.

It attracted a lot of attention along the way. After all, it was not common to see so many carriages walking in the middle of the street, but it was just a curiosity.

Arriving at the door of the house, because the alley can only allow one carriage to enter, if all the carriages at the back go in, the ones in front will not be able to get out.The old man could only let one loaded carriage go out before the next carriage could come in.

It took a lot of work and sweat to load all the saplings onto the carriage.

After locking the door, the old man led these people towards Xujia Village without stopping.

Fortunately, the road has been repaired, otherwise these saplings would surely fall apart if they were left on the previous road.

The convoy was brought to the flat land where the fruit trees were planted, and the workers and those with eyes stepped forward to help.

With more people, the work went much faster. After a while, all the fruit saplings were unloaded and placed neatly on the ground without any damage.

After giving the money to the leader of the motorcade, he took the people away.

The old man said to the men who came to work: "First of all, I am very grateful to you all for coming to Xujiacun to work for my family. I think everyone knows the wages paid by our family." After speaking, he pulled Old Lin beside him, and then He said: "This is my brother-in-law. Let him be responsible for your work. Everyone will call him Manager Lin."

Old man Lin was stunned. He didn't expect that the old man would ask him to take care of these people. He was a little nervous, but he couldn't refuse. If he refused, wouldn't he make his in-laws lose face?I bit the bullet and agreed.

All the men who came to work were taken care of by Old Man Lin, and every one of them was good at managing things. Old Man Lin was worried about this, but his vanity was greatly satisfied.

So the old man started digging the first shovelful of soil, and then the workers took their tools and started digging the foundation.

Seeing that everyone had dispersed and started working, Old Lin pulled the old man and said, "Brother, why did you ask me to be the manager? I'm afraid that I can't do it well, and I'm really worried about it!"

The old man smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? I will ask your son-in-law to help you, and I don't need you to work. It's just right now for you to familiarize yourself with how to manage workers, so that you won't be in a hurry when the workshop opens in the future, don't you think?"

Old man Lin thought for a while, this workshop is a big deal, it is the hard work of his precious granddaughter, and he cannot let himself mess it up, so he said: "Okay, I have done this job, but it will always be some men in the village, and I can't do it well for them." I don’t know how to laugh, I’m going to watch now.” After that, he went to where the workers were working.

Seeing that the workshop was already under construction, looking at the open space on the side, the family had dug a lot of holes throughout the morning.

Qibao divided the land into three parts, one for grapes, one for strawberries, and one for blueberries.

The first thing to plant is grapes. Grapes are plants that can climb vines, so every time a grape vine is planted, a wooden stake about one meter high is inserted next to it and connected with the wooden stake of the grape tree next to it. Qibao I want the grapes to grow not to grow upwards, but to grow left and right.

In this way, you can bend down to pick in the future, without having to climb up or down, which is not safe. During this period, the master who delivered the bricks and tiles also delivered the goods.

At noon, Xu's family ate together with the workers. They really didn't want to go home and cook for themselves. It would be better to plant the fruit saplings as early as possible.

Men as old as the old man in the village also came to help plant fruit trees, and more than 200 grapevines were planted until the afternoon.

After planting the grape vines, the women of the Xu family took buckets to water the grape trees. It was spiritual spring water prepared by Qibao according to the proportion, allowing the grapes to grow and bear fruit within their own budget without attracting attention.

Everyone is busy planting blueberry seedlings again. This is not as troublesome as planting grapes, and you still need to insert wooden stakes, but it is still so busy that the workers have not finished planting after work.

Seeing that it was getting late, the old man said, "Everyone, please go back. We have worked hard today, but your work will not be in vain. I will pay you wages when all the fruit seedlings are planted. By then, my workshop will be built." Okay, I will set up a running-water banquet in the village for three days for everyone to eat."
