There's a garbage bin in my head

Chapter 258: Buying Saplings

The boss of the nursery base is surnamed Miao, and the person who contacted Luo Jiu was a nephew of the boss. The last time he took Luo Jiu around the nursery base for a long time, he introduced all the varieties in the nursery base to Luo Jiu. again.

In the nursery base, in addition to selling various fruit seedlings, it also sells various greening seedlings.

In addition to these, their base actually wholesales various vegetable seedlings, such as pepper seedlings, eggplant seedlings, tomato seedlings, watermelon seedlings, bitter melon seedlings...

There were all kinds of seedlings that Luo Jiu had never seen before. It was an eye-opener for Luo Jiu. There were so many types.

Back home, the auntie was serving dishes on the table. When she saw Luo Jiu coming back, she said to Luo Jiu, "Why is it so late today? Is there anything on the mountain that hasn't been done yet? I think the workers in the village have been back for a while If you don't come back, I will call you."

Luo Jiu explained: "Take a look at the hole dug today."

"Don't wait for me next time you eat. If I don't come back, just leave some for me."

"That's okay, don't talk about this, go wash your hands and prepare to eat!"

"Where's uncle?" Luo Jiu was about to wash his hands, but found that there was no uncle in the room.

Usually when eating, the uncle would sit there early and wait for the meal to be served, but today there are only grandparents, grandma and uncle in the house.

At this time, grandpa said: "Your uncle went to the county seat in the afternoon. I heard that it is a school matter, so don't worry about it."

At night, Luo Jiu slept alone in the Taoist temple. After thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhou Ting's number. He said to Zhou Ting: "Sister Ting, ask your brother to go to the nursery base tomorrow. Just call a truck nearby and buy some fruit saplings for me, not far from the Baiguoyuan we went to last time."

Zhou Ting didn't ask about the saplings, but asked when there will be fruit to eat: "Are there any fruit trees to be planted so soon? When will there be fruit to eat on the mountain? Will there be grapes this time?"

Luo Jiu said: "This time I planted five kinds of cherries, peaches, plums, red bayberries, and loquats, and the grapes will not be planted until the second half of the year.

As for when you can eat the fruits on the mountain, then you have to wait, no sooner than three years and no later than five years, anyway, you can eat it sooner or later.

Later, I will send you the variety and quantity of saplings I want to buy on WeChat, as well as the phone numbers of the nursery staff. When you go there, call me if you have any questions.

When you go tomorrow morning, first contact the people at the nursery base before going there. The owner of the phone number I gave you is the nephew of the owner of the seedling farm, also surnamed Miao. "

After explaining to Zhou Ting, Luo Jiu called Zhou Bin again and explained the matter again.

When work was about to end the next day, Luo Jiu received a call from Zhou Bin: "Brother Jiu, the matter of the saplings has been settled, and I asked them to send 100 more saplings out of 5, totaling 4500 and 225 saplings. It can’t be sent back until tomorrow.”

"It'll be fine tomorrow. There's no rush to spend half a day here anyway."

Luo Jiu put aside the hoe in his hand, and said to the phone: "How much are the saplings this time, I will transfer them to you now."

"The total is 3 yuan. The main reason is that cherry seedlings are a bit expensive. One plant costs 6000 yuan, and 12 plants cost almost 800 yuan."

Zhou Bin said on the phone: "Among them 400 cherry saplings and 400 peach saplings, he said that you have already paid for them, otherwise you will need more money."

Among the several kinds of saplings Luo Jiu bought this time, the most expensive one was the cherry sapling. A cherry sapling is about one meter high and its branches are as wide as a larger bamboo hat. Each cherry sapling costs 15 yuan. .

This kind of cherry sapling, if cultivated well, will start to bear cherries in the third year after planting, and the height of a fully grown cherry tree is only about 3 meters.

When a normal cherry tree grows up, it can reach a height of 8 meters. The cherry tree that Luo Jiu bought from the nursery base is dwarfed and can grow up to about [-] meters.

However, such a cherry tree can achieve the goal of high yield in a short period of time.

Of course, this kind of dwarfed cherry tree mainly has a short, flat and fast effect. In the long run, cherry trees that have not been cultivated through dwarfing will have higher yields.

Among the 1200 cherry saplings this time, 400 of them were bought from the system store, and the species were unknown.

Of the 800 cherry saplings bought from the nursery base, half of them have been dwarfed and half of them have not been dwarfed. However, the varieties of cherries are the same. They are all big cherries, and the cherries produced can reach the size of a one-yuan coin. .

Before ten o'clock the next day, the truck pulling the saplings drove to the foot of the tea mountain, but the driver, facing the potholed dirt road, dared not drive up the mountain, so Zhou Bin had to call Luo Jiu.

"Brother Jiu, the car pulling the saplings has reached the foot of the mountain, but the driver dare not drive up, what do you think?"

"You wait at the bottom of the mountain for a while, I will come down immediately."

Luo Jiu hung up the phone and walked down the mountain, calling Luo Liyun as he walked: "Uncle Yun, tell everyone to listen to what's in hand first, the saplings you bought have been shipped over, and they are at the foot of the mountain. Tell everyone Come here and help unload the saplings, and we can start planting trees in the afternoon."

In fact, the saplings do not have to be unloaded on the mountain. Anyway, the trees are planted from the bottom to the top, and there is no impact at all if they are directly unloaded at the foot of the mountain.

So when Luo Jiu reached the foot of the mountain, everyone quickly followed him down.

Parked at the foot of the mountain was a large truck with a length of at least 0 meters, and the carriage was layered. All the saplings Luo Jiu bought were loaded on the truck.

In fact, these saplings still take up a lot of space. All the saplings are two-year-old saplings with a height of nearly one meter. No matter how crowded they are, nearly 5000 saplings can be loaded into this large truck with a length of 8 meters. It's full.

If it weren't for the shelves in the compartment, it would be impossible for a car to hold so many saplings. It should be the shelves that the drivers near the seedling farm specially installed for the business of the seedling farm.

"Master, take a rest first, why did you arrive here so early, should you leave early in the morning?"

While talking, Luo Jiu took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it over, and said to the driver: "Just park the car here, and I will arrange for people to unload the goods immediately."

With the efforts of more than a dozen people, all the saplings were finally unloaded and piled up next to the horses at the foot of the mountain when work was over in the morning.
