Chapter 67 Storage Issues
After Yao Weijun sent Yu Xiunan back to the village, he rode his motorcycle all the way back to the county agricultural technology station.

There was a theory course on mushroom cultivation arranged by Professor Ling this afternoon. He didn't want to miss it, so he didn't go back to the threshing floor or go home.

Yao Weijun attaches great importance to this learning, and his hands-on ability is not bad. After about 20 days, the straw mushrooms that Professor Ling asked the students to plant have successfully grown in the area he is responsible for, completing the task ahead of schedule.

And with the ID certificate provided by You Damin, I took the time to attend many courses and lectures in other categories. This training and study at the agricultural technology station was a huge gain.

In the past, Yao Weijun could only earn a little money by relying on his previous life experience. Now he not only has a lot of useful knowledge, but also has many connections.

After every lecture or during hands-on practice, I would intentionally get to know the people who were invited to give lectures. With the help of You Damin, I even had dinner with those expert and leadership figures twice.

With money in his hands, he was naturally generous and decent in his dealings with others. Yao Weijun got along well with both sides, and after going back and forth, at least on the surface, everyone became friends.

When he returned to the agricultural technology station, Professor Ling's class was about to begin. Yao Weijun parked his motorcycle and hurried to the classroom.

"Brother Yao!"

At this time, a voice in the distance called him, and when he looked closely, he saw Zhou Liqiang smiling at him and waving his hands.

"Brother Zhou, are you coming back to report on your work today? As you can tell, this is the first time we have met at the station in so many days since I've been here! Haha..."

Yao Weijun greeted him with a smile and took out the cigarette case from his purse.

"Smoke mine!" Zhou Liqiang handed over the cigarette first, "I saw Damin just now, and I heard from him that you have been very popular in our station during this period, haha... I can see it. , If you were an employee of our station, you would probably have a better meal than Damin, you are really stupid!"

After hearing this, Yao Weijun smiled and waved his hands. Because he was thinking about Professor Ling's class, he said directly: "Brother Zhou shouldn't go back to Xingge Village today, right? Let's have dinner together in the evening, I will make arrangements."

"Go back! There's still a lot of things going on over there in Xingge Village. I'm going to leave now. I just happened to meet you, otherwise I have to call you to talk."

Zhou Liqiang's words moved Yao Weijun's heart, and he motioned for the former to continue.

"It's fast forward to November. I estimate that all the melon seeds from Xinggezhuang will be collected in another ten and a half days. As for supplying goods to you, please come over after the training." Well, let’s sit down with the party secretary and have a chat then.”

Zhou Liqiang continued with a serious face: "I can tell you the bottom line. What the party secretary wants is to supply you until the end of November, and then report it to the leaders to have all the saved melon seeds taken away.

After all, the villagers have been busy for most of the year, and they also want to sell all the raw melon seeds to share the money for the New Year. Brother Yao, please think about it in advance and see if you should save more goods, or stop this business first and concentrate on getting some from Lao Xu. Shell peanuts for sale. "

"..." Yao Weijun frowned slightly. Currently, the trading of roasted seeds and nuts is going smoothly, and he earns a lot of money every day. When the twelfth lunar month comes, the sales of melon seeds and peanuts will be even more popular. He originally planned to make a lot of money at the end of the year. Stop Dropping is impossible.

But if you switch to purchasing goods from other places, not only the cost will increase, but also the key transportation will be a troublesome matter.

"Brother Zhou, thank you for notifying me of this matter in advance. As you said, after my training is over, I can take the time to meet with the party secretary and see if we can come up with a compromise together."

Yao Weijun said calmly after thinking deeply.

"Okay, you can think about it over the next few days and figure out what suits us best. I will definitely help you talk to me when the time comes."

Zhou Liqiang smiled and felt relieved. There was still something going on in the village, so he didn't wait any longer. He finished smoking the cigarette in his hand and rode away on his bicycle.

Yao Weijun walked to the classroom to listen to the class, putting the matter aside for the time being. "Professor Ling!"

At the end of the class, he caught up with Professor Ling and said hello.

"What's wrong, Xiao Yao?"

Professor Ling pushed up his glasses and asked with a smile.

"Professor Ling, I want to ask you something." Yao Weijun said, gesturing to the flower bed in the distance with his hand. There was no one there, so it was more convenient to talk about things.

"Tell me about it and see if I can help you." Professor Ling had a good impression of Yao Weijun. Although he had never attended a dinner organized by Yao Weijun, he admired this student's enthusiasm for learning and good hands-on ability.

"Professor Ling, didn't I take leave and return to the village a few days ago? The village party secretary talked about developing side businesses. We all agreed that off-season sales would be a good way, but we had no idea how to store them in large quantities. "

Yao Weijun took out a Chinese cigarette and handed it over, and continued: "So I would like to ask Professor Ling if he has any experience in this area. You smoke."

"Haha... Xiao Yao, your idea is good, but large-scale storage and preservation is not that simple. In addition to strict requirements on the temperature, humidity, ventilation and length of time of the storage location, what exactly is being stored? Planting items is more important!"

Professor Ling lit his cigarette and couldn't help but ask with curiosity on his face.

"Well... the conditions in the village are limited. From the beginning, we planned to try nuts, such as raw melon seeds and shelled peanuts. If we can store them until next spring, we will definitely be able to sell them for more money. When the conditions are mature in the future, we will Consider storing fresh fruits.”

Yao Weijun said frankly.

"This is simple. Let's not talk about it being too complicated. I can give you two simple methods now."

Professor Ling stretched out two fingers and said: "First, dig a cellar for storage, but make sure there are enough ventilation holes. Second, store it directly in the open air, but in rainy and snowy weather, you need to prevent the humidity from increasing and mold forming at the bottom. Change.

The advantage of the first method is that the temperature in the cellar is relatively constant, but the disadvantage is that it requires a lot of manpower and material resources to dig the cellar in the early stage. The second method does not cost much labor in the early stage, but in rainy and snowy weather, people need to be sent for maintenance.

If I were asked to choose, I would definitely choose the first one. Digging a cellar is very troublesome, but this is a once and for all solution. It not only saves labor in later maintenance, but it can also be used if you want to store fresh fruits in the future. "

Professor Ling gave his suggestions with a smile.

Yao Weijun smiled noncommittally. While smoking, he asked about the details of the two storage methods, and gradually made a decision in his heart.

After watching Professor Ling leave, he also walked out of the agricultural technology station with his work bag in hand.

After what happened at the Spring Breeze Hotel last time, Yao Weijun moved to another hotel. He usually walked to and from there, and parked his motorcycle directly in the shed of the Agricultural Technology Station. He felt it was safer this way.

"Don't leave in a hurry. Let's have some drinks tonight!"

You Damin chased him out from the agricultural technology station, with a look of joy on his face. He came closer and said, "Brother Yao, I picked up a big job, but I'm afraid you won't be able to supply the goods this time, haha..."
