Chapter 141 Borrow a space to farm (74)

A bridge was built on the river two years ago, and people in Weijiagou and several nearby villages no longer need to change to a ferry when they go out.

Zeng Lao and his party crossed the bridge and walked for a while to Weijiagou.

Xiao Zou saw the apricot tree on the river slope at a glance, pointed to it and said, That's an apricot, it's so big.

Mr. Zeng saw it and stopped the car, Go, go down and have a look.

As soon as Zeng Lao's car stopped, all the cars behind stopped.

The apricot tree is not far away, just up the slope.

The apricots were all ripe, golden and yellow, almost as tall as the peaches, and everyone's eyes lit up.

Not apricots of any variety they had ever seen.

Those who do agricultural research can't walk when they see new varieties.

Zheng Hui, who was walking ahead to open the way, pointed to a wooden sign in front of the apricot tree and said, Look at this sign, 'passers-by can pick ten'. The folk customs here are really simple, and passers-by can eat apricots as they please.

Xiao Zou came closer, Really. Looking at the apricot tree next to him, How about we pick a few?

They didn't want to eat it, but saw a variety they hadn't seen before, and their hands were itchy, wanting to hold it in their hands and observe it carefully.

There is a brand, so it's okay to pick it. Wu Qiang, a local staff member who accompanied him, said with a smile, The apricots in Weijiagou have become famous in the past two years, and they will be sold out soon after they hit the market.

Then I picked it. A researcher named Yao Yan stepped forward to pick one off, smelled it, and handed it to Mr. Zeng, Mr. Zeng, look, the sweetness of this apricot should not be low. The hardness Also, it is said that it should be very soft when it matures like this.

Xiao Zou also picked one over there, It tastes so good, it smells like an appetite. Who cultivated it? Are there other researchers in Weijiagou?

No wonder he thinks this way, a person's energy is limited, and there are also skills to specialize in.

Wei Xingxi, who has made achievements in the research of food crops, can he make achievements in other areas?

Just as they were talking, two little boys about ten years old came out from the apricot grove, each carrying a basket on their back, which was half full of apricots.

Seeing a large group of people standing in front of the apricot tree, one of the children asked curiously, What do you do?

Zheng Hui smiled at the child, We came to Weijiagou to find someone. This is the apricot tree planted by your family, can we go in and have a look?

The little boy shook his head and said, It's not from my family, it was planted by Sister Xingxi. You can eat it if you want.

Xingxi? Is it Wei Xingxi? Is this her orchard?

Zheng Hui thought to himself, isn't Wei Xingxi a researcher of grain seeds, why did he become a fruit tree grower?

The child continued to shake his head, No, this is a tree from the brigade, and it was planted by the seedlings given by Sister Xingxi. You can pick it if you want to eat it, but each person can only pick ten.

Mr. Zeng thought it was funny and asked, Little friend, why can you only pick ten?

Sister Xingxi made it like this. A person can only pick ten pieces a day to eat. If they pick more, they will be paid, fifty yuan a piece.

Xiao Zou's eyes widened behind his glasses, How much? Fifty? Isn't this a sky-high price.

Another child continued, Whoever picks too much will be given fifty yuan, fifty for one, and one hundred for two.

Zheng Hui asked, Are you looking at the apricot tree?

No, you don't need to look at the apricot tree.

Don't look at it? Then you will know if others pick too much?

The child said proudly, No one dares not to pay if they pick too much. Sister Xingxi knows whoever picks too much. Send someone to tell them, and that person will have to pay. If you don't give money, Sister Xingxi will clean them up. .

Another child contended, Last year, a person from Nanpozi Village secretly picked a basket and sold it. Sister Xingxi found out and sent someone to Nanpozi Village to tell her, and the money was sent back immediately. , not enough money to pay for work.”

You sister Xingxi are so powerful?

That's right. No one dares not to listen to Sister Xingxi. With Sister Xingxi, wild boars dare not come to harm the land. Sister Xingxi can kill a wild boar with one punch, and kill a wolf with one kick.

A group of people looked at each other in blank dismay. They came to find a self-taught scientific researcher, why did Wei Xingxi sound like a king of the mountain.

If he hadn't known that Wei Xingxi was a young woman, he would have thought she was a strong man like a black iron tower.

If it weren't for a strong woman in the iron tower?

They all looked at Wu Qiang.

...I don't know much about this. Wu Qiang is from the county seat. He only knows that Weijiagou has produced good grain seeds in the past few years, and that the grain seeds were cultivated by Wei Xingxi. What is it like for Wei Xingxi? People don't understand.

Yan Lu, the reporter following the film, winked at the camera, and then he went to the front and asked the two children, Seeing that you are very capable, you have picked so many, what are your names?

The first child to talk loves to talk, My name is Mingxi, and he is Xiaoshuai.

Yan Lu asked, Is it true or a rumor that sister Xingxi killed a wild boar with one punch and kicked a wolf to death?

Ming Xi raised her head, Of course it's true. Sister Xingxi killed many wild boars, and they were all featured in the newspapers. They are the 'pig-killing heroes' of our town.

Sister Xingxi went to the mountain to save Uncle Du Qi, kicked a wolf to death, and now the wolf skin is still in the brigade.

It even aroused Yan Lu's sense of news, You sister Xingxi is so powerful, are you all afraid of her?

Of course I'm afraid. There is no one in Weijiagou who is not afraid of Sister Xingxi. People from other villages dare not come here to cause trouble, and they are also afraid of Sister Xingxi.

Then has she ever hit you?

Mingxi had a bitter face, I haven't hit you before. But when the teacher complains, sister Xingxi will punish us. We will be punished for picking apricots. We have to pick them for one day.

Another kid, Xiaoshuai, urged, Mingxi, let's hurry up. If we don't pick enough two hundred catties, we have to double it tomorrow.

Ah? Please don't.

The two children ran down the slope with their baskets on their backs.

Yan Lu's interview had just started, and he tried to stop the two children but failed, so he had to give up, but he became more curious about Wei Xingxi.

Yao Yan took the second apricot she picked and asked hesitantly, Then... shall we still pick it?

Zheng Hui pointed to the sign, It doesn't matter if one person picks ten. Let's pick two.

After all, it was a drumbeat in the heart. No one in the group dared to pick more, and one person picked two or three.

It's so sweet.

I've never eaten such delicious apricots.

Walking through the path beside the apricot forest to get closer to the village, Mr. Zeng decided not to take the car, and the group walked towards the village.

They thought that the apricot, which was as big as a peach, had surprised them, but along the way, it gave them too many surprises.

Finger-long red mulberries.

The purple-red pomegranate flowers blooming just right, according to the gestures of the villagers, the pomegranates produced must have a diameter of 30 centimeters.

The most memorable thing for them is the wheat field.

This, this is true. Elder Zeng ran excitedly to the edge of the wheat field, stroking the half-foot-long ears of wheat, and looked into the distance, It's all there. If the whole country is planted, how much more grain will be harvested? ah.
