Back to the era: My vegetable cellar is modern

Chapter 156 Why don’t you plant strawberries?

After seeing off Zhao Laoliu, Qin Hao pushed the motorcycle into the hospital and placed it near the door of the house.

The entrance to a house in rural areas is a very large kitchen, which can accommodate not only a motorcycle, but also another one.

"Why are you sweating so much?" Li Meiling turned back to look at him, and was shocked by the sweat on his face.

This is autumn. Although it will be a little hot at noon, it is still less than 20 degrees.

Qin Hao went directly to wipe his face with a towel and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's too hot in the car. I'm afraid of catching a cold if I open the window."

"Oh, come in. You didn't eat lunch, did you? I didn't eat either, so I'll give you some noodles." Li Meiling said to herself, then went to work in the outer room to cook.

Qin Hao returned to the house angrily and sat on the kang, grinning in pain. The back of the stroller was pulled hard just now, and it must have been the most painful in the past two days.

As long as the wound scabs after two days, it will be much better. It will not delay normal life, and at least it will not be discovered.

For lunch, two people had hot pot noodles and two poached eggs per person.

Now Li Meiling is very good at eating, almost as much as Qin Hao. You must know that Qin Hao can eat a pound of cooked food in one meal. Few women can eat as well as him.

In the afternoon, Qin Hao called Wang Dahua over to help Li Meiling cook. He wanted to help, but he was afraid of being found injured, so he lay on his side on the kang like an uncle and watched TV. The two of them were busy stewing chicken and fish in the outer room.

"You've caught up with me, lean on the kang." Wang Dahua went into the house to rest and roll a cigarette.

She rarely smoked, but she just couldn't stop smoking.

"Mom, I've been busy for half a year, can't I take a break?" Qin Hao smiled, but he wasn't too tired.

"That's right." Wang Dahua sighed. This life now was something she had never dared to imagine before.

The boss opened a consignment store, made money every day, and lived in a tile-roofed house.

Although the second child has not yet built a house, he has made plans to build it in the next spring. Those who also raise chickens and pigs get bigger as they work, and the furnishings in their homes are richer than those in the city.

The days are getting better and better, and she is happy.

What Qin Hao wanted to say in the evening was not a big deal, so he waited until everyone had arrived.

Li Meiling looked at Qin Hao on the Kang table. She always felt that something was wrong with this man. His face turned a little pale and he seemed to have no energy.

"Coming to you today is not as simple as treating us to a meal. Shouldn't the strawberries from your greenhouse be down in the next couple of days?"

Qin Hao looked at everyone and said: "After the strawberry harvest ends, it will probably be in December, because the output is getting lower and lower. At that time, the last batch will be reserved for planting, and we can continue to sell strawberries in February."

"I haven't told you about this before. Buying strawberry seedlings is not cheap. I have talked with Brother Chunsheng and it is more economical to raise the seedlings yourself, but it takes a little effort."

"What do you think? It still depends on what you want. If you don't want to grow seedlings, you can just spend money to buy them."

In the eyes of rural people, anything they can make by themselves will never cost money. As long as the TV can be made by hand, they will not buy it.

So after hearing this, everyone agreed to raise their own seedlings.

"Haozi, we don't understand how to raise seedlings, so we have to let you teach Chunsheng." Shi Yonggang is not afraid of offending people. We all make money together, so if you have any ideas, just say it.

Besides, Qin Hao also takes a commission, he doesn't want to make less money, right?

Qin Hao nodded, looked at Shi Chunsheng and said, "Brother Chunsheng, take a good look at the few books I brought you and teach them. If you don't understand anything, write it down and I'll ask others for you."

He doesn't understand anything, don't ask him.

Everyone understood this, but no one believed that Qin Hao didn't understand anything. He was the one who took up this job. In terms of understanding, he must know better.

And I don’t know why, but everyone regards him as the backbone.

At this time, the door opened outside and Qin Dashan walked in with his hands behind his back. "Hey, are they all here? Okay, Qin Hao, I won't call you uncle even if you have something delicious to eat!"

He said with a smile, not blaming anyone else at all. Just kidding.

"Brother Dashan, sit here! Let's have a drink. It's been a long time since we drank together!" Qin Ershuan directly blocked the topic and poured some liquor.

Qin Dashan didn't come here to cause trouble, he sat next to him with a smile, "Okay Shuanzi, I won't let you know my drinking capacity today!"

The two grew up together. Qin Dashan was five years older than him, so they were not in the same circle.

Although the countryside is small, people of all ages do not play together at all. If the age difference is more than two years, then there are two circles.

"Uncle, you didn't come here just for lunch, did you?" Qin Hao looked at the other party with an indifferent expression.

This person has always come to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason, so if he comes here, there must be something wrong.

Qin Dashan took a sip of wine, smacked his lips, smiled and nodded, "I can't hide anything from you, kid! Something is indeed happening!"

"Eat first and talk about it later, it's not a big deal."

Having said that, there is no need to hold on to it. Everyone continued to drink and chat, and were very happy.

Qin Hao didn't dare to drink too much, and everyone was not a person who encouraged drinking. Anyone could drink as much as they wanted, just don't drink too much.

Seeing that the harvesting is now over, the remaining work of bundling corn stalks is left, and every family is preparing to dry the corn and sell it as grain. After three rounds of drinking, everyone was almost done drinking. Some of them were thinking about home and went back first. When planting strawberries, you have to go back and light a fire. The greenhouse is very cold at night, so the strawberry seedlings cannot be frozen.

Zhao Laoliu also went back to feed the chickens and get ready for bed. During this time, he just waited for the chickens to grow up and lay eggs, nothing else.

"Uncle, if you have anything to say, just tell me. There are no outsiders." Qin Hao saw that most of the people had left, and the only ones left were his own family members.

Qin Dashan nodded and said straight to the point: "I know you are very busy recently. I wanted to ask if you have time to give us some advice on building a greenhouse."

"Everyone?" Qin Hao frowned and asked, "How many people are building greenhouses?"

Why does this sound wrong?

Qin Dashan glanced at him, stared at the wine glass in his hand and said, "There are only about ten households, ready to grow vegetables."

Although growing strawberries is profitable, the technology is there and most people are not as creative as young people. It is better to grow vegetables.

They all grow vegetables, and they can definitely do it in a greenhouse. Therefore, for this kind of money-making opportunity, as long as the family has some wealth, they should fight for it.

Times have changed, times are progressing, and they also want to progress.

Qin Hao was speechless when he heard this. A dozen people? How many vegetables can be grown in a dozen greenhouses?

"Uncle, with so many people growing crops, where will the vegetables be sold?" He felt that one of them was bigger than the other.

It's not that he wants to take this job, but he thinks it's difficult to sell in large quantities.

Upon hearing this, Qin Dashan reassured him, "You don't have to worry about this, it's all taken care of."

"My classmate works as a manager at a county food market. I asked him about it. As long as the food is good, they can come and buy it. And they need as much as they want, the more the better."

With this sales channel, they are not afraid of not being able to sell. There is a demand for vegetables, just like food.

Fruits are only eaten by rich people, but the dishes are different. Although the price is higher than in normal times, it is not as expensive as meat per kilogram.

Therefore, when the harvest is slow in winter, it is very easy to buy vegetables several times.

Now that he had said that, Qin Hao didn't refuse anymore, "That's okay, I'll take a look when I have time."

With him watching, most people will feel at ease. Because Qin Hao was the first one to build a greenhouse. Although his family did not have one, Qin Hao was the one who gave instructions on the strawberry greenhouse.

After saying this, Qin Dashan asked the doubts in his heart, "Qin Hao, there is one thing I have always wanted to ask you. Why do everyone build greenhouses, but you don't?"

It stands to reason that when it comes to making money like this, he must be the first to do it, but Qin Hao didn't, and instead let others do it first.

If we are afraid of risks, should we build a greenhouse after the first batch of strawberries are sold?

Everyone looked at Qin Hao, this was also their doubt. But they were all Qin Hao's family members, so they couldn't speak, as if they were afraid that Qin Hao wouldn't make money.

In response, Qin Hao replied: "Actually, I haven't thought about it, but collecting and selling eggs takes up half of my time. There are also raising chickens. There will be more and more chickens in the coming year."

"Uncle, you haven't forgotten that I took over the mountain behind, right?"

When he built the hilltop, many people laughed at him. What's the use of a broken hilltop that can't grow fruit trees?

Qin Dashan thought about this and still didn't know what it was used for. "How could I forget? What does this have to do with greenhouses?"

"That's it." Qin Hao explained.

Baoshantou is nothing more than raising chickens. Liuda chickens have a completely different taste and nutritional value from ordinary domestic chickens.

The chicken eats more insects and walks a lot, so the chicken tastes different.

The taste of the eggs will also be richer. In terms of impact, it is about the same as ordinary domestic eggs, but the taste is different.

Pig raising also requires space. As for large-scale breeding, I haven’t thought about it yet. After all, I don’t know whether it will be sold.

After listening to Qin Hao's words, everyone felt that it was not good. How much money can you make raising chickens? How can you earn more by growing in a greenhouse?

Qin Dashan also had the same idea and began to persuade: "Qin Hao, I know you can make money by raising chickens, but you can't make more than in a greenhouse, right?"

Definitely more.

But Qin Hao didn't say that he had made a fortune from these eggs before, so he couldn't tell the truth, right? After all, the things he sells are all in the modern era and are monetized through clothes.

But recently, Qin Hao feels that this approach cannot always work. What if Chang Gui stops working and becomes a car dealer one day? What will he do?

Ever since he returned home, he had a hunch that Jiang Dabiao's property might be taken over by Chang Gui.

There is always someone to work as a car dealer, and there are so many temporary workers there.

No one in the family said anything, and even if they thought it was unreasonable, they never tried to persuade them.

In their opinion, Qin Hao can achieve what he is today without any need for their teaching. With such courage and insight, who can be his teacher?

Before leaving, Qin Dashan said a few words to him alone, "Qin Hao, I know that you are a kind-hearted boy. In the future, the Qin family will definitely rely on you to change things."

This sentence is very heavy and weighs on people's shoulders.
