Hello 1983

  Chapter 395 The contrast is a bit big

   Facing the spring breeze and bathed in the rising sun, Jiapigou, old and small, carrying a pickaxe, has gone to the foot of the mountain to plant trees.

   There is also Professor Wang, who has no research projects these days, and works with the old party secretary and the others every day.

  Liu Qingshan sent the mountain birds to Shoulin Village yesterday, and today he had nothing to do, so he got mixed up in the team formed by the nursing home and the kindergarten.

  Planting trees has always been a serious business in the current Jiapigou. Under the guidance of Liu Qingshan, everyone has reached a consensus: planting trees is to grow money, which is equivalent to a cash cow.

   What's more, the precious yew was planted, and everyone was more energetic.

   "Campus morning, one or two, sing."

  Liu Ying yelled cheerfully, and the crisp singing of the children followed:

   "Along the familiar path of the campus, I came to study under the tree in the morning, and the rising sun shone on us, and also on the little tree beside us... Please remember this good time until it grows into a towering tree!"

  Joyful, uplifting, with an inspiring force, this is the overall style of songs in the 1980s.

  Looking at the smiling little faces, Liu Qingshan's heart was also full of sunshine: You little fellows will definitely grow into towering trees.

   Arriving at a barren **** at the foot of the mountain, the old and the young started digging holes.

  Some people carried buckets to carry water from the creek not far away, and poured it into the dug tree pit.

  After the water is filled enough, it will seep into the soil, and then the saplings can be planted.

   Wait for the saplings to be planted in the pit, accompany them with soil, and then fill them with water again, and they will basically survive.

  Because at the beginning of spring, the soil will naturally become fertile. In the mouth of the common people, there is also a term called "moisture".

   Not long after, Marshal Zhang led a dozen strong laborers, each carrying two bundles of saplings, down the mountain.

  Basically, they are yew saplings with a height of one to two meters. Each plant is tall and straight and green, which is so attractive to look at.

  These are saplings that reproduce naturally in the mountains. Although they are only one meter high, they have grown for some years, and they are basically more than ten years old.

   The growth rate of yew is indeed a bit slow.

   Moreover, most of these saplings will not grow to adulthood, and will wither because they cannot get enough sunlight and rain.

   This is also a part of natural elimination, not based on human will.

   Just move such small saplings down the mountain, transplant them into forests, and make full use of their due contributions.

   "Uncle handsome, are there many saplings like this?"

  As Liu Qingshan asked, he helped Dashuai Zhang unload the two bundles of saplings on his shoulders.

  Because of height, everyone else is carrying a shoulder pole, except the handsome uncle.

   "It's okay, the most ones are one or two feet high." Dashuai Zhang wiped the sweat from his bald forehead, took the water bottle off his body, and gulped down a few mouthfuls.

   "Uncle handsome, don't be busy drinking water, my master will bring down the birch sap later." Liu Qingshan is also quite satisfied, if there are enough saplings, there is no need to do any cuttings, the survival rate is too low.

  When the saplings arrived, they began to be planted in the pit.

  When Zhang Dashuai and the others dug the saplings, they obviously put their heart into it. The more roots they bring, the easier it is to survive.

  The sapling fell into the pit, first filled with a few shovels of soil, then lifted the sapling up a little, and then continued to fill with soil.

  In this way, the root system can be stretched out better, which is conducive to rooting.

  The kids have long been experts in tree planting, so there is no need to tell them about these things.

   "Drinks are here!"

  A loud voice came from not far away, and I saw Li Tieniu carrying two buckets, walking like flying, rushing here.

   "Rest!" Liu Ying gave an order, and the old people got together to smoke a pipe, while the children ran towards Li Tieniu.

   "Am I so popular?" Li Tieniu grinned silly.

  Then he saw the children cheering and surrounding the big bear behind him, Li Tieniu was so angry that he really wanted to put down the pick.

   "Brother Tieniu, are the tea eggs cooked?" The fourth child still asked with concern.

  This side is close to the woodcut, so we cook tea eggs over there.

   "When it was cooked, the big bear started to wander around the pot, and I brought it here without any help." Li Tieniu pulled the antenna braid of the fourth brother, which he also learned from his brother.

  Two barrels of birch juice were poured into the stomachs of the people after a while. This kind of pure natural drink is not like those later on.

  Everyone was about to start working again, when they saw a group of people walking towards them from a distance.

  Dashuai Zhang saw the young man walking in front of him, and immediately picked up a shoulder pole beside him: "Damn it, you came to our side to hunt again, right? I have to teach them to remember better today!"

  Liu Qingshan also saw Qi Shengli, as well as Chen Dongfang and several villagers, including an old man with an extraordinary bearing.

  So he stopped Dashuai Zhang, this group obviously wasn't hunting today.

   "Liu... Boss Liu, we meet again."

  Chen Dongfang greeted him lukewarmly. He really didn't know what to call Liu Qingshan, so he simply called Boss Liu.

   "Boss Chen, what advice do you have?"

  Liu Qingshan didn't play tricks with the other party. He looked at the yew planted next to him, and he basically guessed the reason for Chen Dongfang's visit.

  Chen Dongfang probably had the same thought: "Boss Liu, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Huang, a forestry expert. We are here this time to introduce a batch of yew saplings to you."

  Chen Dongfang first introduced the spirited old man. Liu Qingshan respects talents the most, so he still respects that expert Huang, and said with a smile:

   "Old gentleman, welcome to guide."

  Unexpectedly, the old man ignored Liu Qingshan at all, but looked at the yews planted in the tree pits, frowned and said:

   "You're messing around, the distance between the plants is so close, who is in charge here, it's just a blind command, a waste of manpower and material resources!"

  This old man has a bad temper, he will fire as soon as he comes up.

   While Qi Shengli gloated beside him: "Everything we do now must be based on science. Science knows it, but you bunch of bumpkins probably wouldn't think of inviting experts, hahaha!"

  On the hillside, only his wanton laughter echoed.

  The kids in the village all puffed out their cheeks and stared angrily at this annoying guy.

  Since the fourth and fifth children were still overthinking, the two little girls met each other's eyes, and then one by one, they grabbed Professor Wang's arm and pulled him out of the crowd.

  The fourth little one also said: "Grandpa Wang, you teach that person a lesson, just like what the elder brother said is called?"

   "Slap in the face." Shan Xing reminded from the side.

  Professor Wang was also happy to hear it, and shook his head: "No, no, no, I am too old to move."

   "Professor Wang, is that you?"

  The face of the old man Huang changed drastically, and he looked carefully at the old man in a straw hat in front of him. He was no different from those old farmers, and he didn't dare to recognize him.

   "Xiao Huang, you are here too." Professor Wang still greeted cheerfully.

  Huang Lao immediately turned into Xiao Huang, the contrast is a bit big.

  However, Xiao Huang was still full of excitement: "Professor Wang, I read the paper you published recently, which is the artificial cultivation of fungus segments, which is very popular, and our institute has even organized studies."

  Beside Qi Shengli, the arrogance on his face disappeared instantly, and he felt a little hot. He seemed to understand: Is this the slap in the face that the little girl just said?

  Professor Wang smiled and waved his hands: "The main thing is that Jiapigou provides us with a good practice platform. In our business, we must pay attention to practice."

   "Yes, yes, yes." Huang Lao nodded repeatedly, giving Xiao Lao Si and the others the feeling that they, elementary school students, saw their teacher.

  Seeing that the other party has corrected his attitude, Liu Qingshan explained from the side: "Old Huang, we are planting densely first, so that it is convenient for unified management, and it is more convenient for watering and fertilizing."

   "Then wait until the diameter of the tree grows to about ten centimeters, and then carry out the second transplanting to finalize the shape."

   So it turned out to be the case. Huang Lao felt that he was a little reckless at the beginning. It's not that he doesn't know how to do it, but that he has a new attempt.

  He lowered his head and pondered for a while, then nodded: "Although I haven't verified it in practice, your method should be feasible, and it can speed up the growth of trees in the early stage."

   "It means waiting until the plant is too large in the later stage, how can the survival rate of transplanting be guaranteed?"

   Liu Qingshan thinks this old man is quite cute, he is not right about things, but when it comes to professions, he is quite professional.

  So he said with a smile: "In the winter of last year, we transplanted two yews with a DBH of more than 30 centimeters at the gate of the wild vegetable factory in the commune. Now it seems that they have survived."

  Old Huang frowned again: "Could it be fake work? All trees have this characteristic. Even the sawn pieces of wood will sprout and grow leaves."

   This possibility does exist, but Liu Qingshan is confident, so he said with a smile: "Then it will take time to prove it."

   "Okay, young man, I'll come over and have a look in autumn. If you can really transplant and survive, then your method can be promoted in our cold zone."

  Old Huang looked very excited, even a little excited on his face.

   As a result, Qi Shengli also frowned: Where are you from? We invited you here, so how did you get so hot with each other?

  Listening, he couldn't help it anymore, so he coughed hard: "Liu, Boss Liu, we are here to buy saplings, let's talk about business first."

  Liu Qingshan glanced at him: "Okay, it happens that we also have a surplus of yew saplings here. That's the price, it's a little expensive."

  Qi Shengli sneered again: "How expensive are the saplings? They're not made of gold. What price do you have?"

   When he thought about it, this group of rural people didn't have much knowledge, and they took eighty cents as money.

  Liu Qingshan raised his hand and waved it in front of Qi Shengli.

   "Fifty cents, um, it's really a bit expensive!" Qi Shengli was contemptuous.

   But Liu Qingshan shook his head with a smile.

   "Could it be five yuan a tree?" Qi Shengli was a little surprised this time.

  Liu Qingshan still shook his head with a smile.

   "Fifty yuan, why don't you grab the money!"

  Qi Shengli's eyes widened, full of disbelief: Are these bumpkins poor and crazy?

  Liu Qingshan was still smiling, and turned to Chen Dongfang: "Boss Chen, is 50 yuan more expensive than 500 yuan a Clivia seedling?"
