"There is nothing left in the orchard. Some of the fruit trees have died of drought. Is there anything we can investigate?"

Wang Xilong heard the young man's words and said truthfully.

There is really nothing to investigate there. The most severe trees have died of drought, and some of the leaves have turned yellow, let alone the fruits.

"I just want to take a look at the situation there. Brother, if you know, please lead the way."

As Chen Mo spoke, he took two packs of cigarettes from the co-pilot and handed them over.

In this way, he bought the cigarettes when he passed by the supermarket when he came here.

He had long thought that he would need to ask for directions and inquire about the situation when he came here, and if he wanted someone to help him, he would naturally need to pay a small price.

Otherwise, some people, even if they give directions, are very perfunctory.

Wang Xilong looked at the cigarette that Chen Mo handed over, hesitated for a moment, and took the cigarette.

"I happen to be going to the orchard over there, just follow me."

Saying,

He started the electric car and drove out, stuffing two packs of cigarettes into his pockets.

A pack of cigarettes costs about 30 yuan, and he is usually reluctant to smoke.

When Chen Mo saw this, he also started his vehicle and followed closely behind.

About 10 minutes later,

An electric car and a commercial vehicle were parked at the foot of a hill.

Chen Mo opened the door and got out of the car. He looked up at the hillsides on both sides. He could already see the fruit orchards, but in this season, these fruit trees should have been green.

But now it is all gray and yellow.

"Those on the mountain are the fruit trees that were affected."

Wang Xilong pointed at the hillsides on both sides.

"You can go up and have a look."

Chen Mo nodded. He didn't need Wang Xilong to tell him, he already knew that this was the affected orchard.

Just looking at this scene is depressing enough.

"It's already like this, what else can't be seen? My orchard is right there. If you want to see it, I'll take you there to see it."

Wang Xilong spoke indifferently.

If there were fruits in the past, if outsiders went up to take a look, some fruits might be lost.

But now there's nothing to worry about except those fruit trees with yellowing leaves.

"Well, that's troublesome."

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that this eldest brother would be in this orchard.

But he didn't say much, just nodded.

It must be sad to have no harvest in the orchard, but he doesn't know how to comfort him.

And they had just met, so he had no obligation to comfort them.

Because the hills here are very steep, there is no way for two people to go up in a vehicle. The only way is to walk up.

"Brother Wang, when there was no drought here before, how did the picked fruits get transported!"

When they reached the halfway point on the hillside, Chen Mo asked curiously.

"They are all transported bit by bit on small trucks. Of course, sometimes they are also carried manually."

"Is this so!"

Chen Mo stroked his forehead and was already sweating slightly.

He couldn't imagine how tiring it would be to transport the fruits to the foot of the mountain. He was only halfway through the journey and felt a little sweaty.

But here comes the thought.

Chen Mo couldn't help but think that if he took over the orchard here, he could make a lot of money by transporting the fruits down the mountain.

He nodded secretly in his mind and continued walking in the orchard.

Walking around the orchard casually, looking at the boring fruit trees, I couldn't help but sigh.

It is because of the drought that all the orchards in such a large area have lost their harvest.

I don’t know what the owners of these orchards think.

"Brother Wang, these orchards will definitely not have a harvest this year. What are you going to do?"

Chen Mo walked to Wang Xilong's side and asked doubtfully.

For farmers, no harvest means no income and no idea how they will cope.

"What else can we do? Some people in the town and I are already preparing to go out to work."

Wang Xilong squatted under the tree in the orchard, looked down the hillside, casually took out a cigarette and lit it up.

At the same time, he also took out one and handed it to Chen Mo beside him.

"Well, I don't know how to smoke."

Chen Mo shook his head when he saw this.

When Wang Xilong heard this, he took the cigarette back and put it back in the cigarette case.

I was a little confused, because I had given him two packs of cigarettes not long ago, but I didn't smoke.

How strange!

"If there was a suitable job here at home with a similar salary, would you still choose to go out to work?"

Chen Mo also sat down beside him and spoke calmly.

He also thought that if he invested in agriculture here, he would definitely need workers.

And these people who are preparing to go out to work because of the orchard disaster are not the workers on site.

"If there is a suitable and profitable job here, who would want to leave his wife and children and leave his hometown?"

Wang Xilong took a deep breath of cigarette, his tone full of helplessness.

Chen Mo nodded when he heard this and already had some ideas in his mind.

"I'll go back and talk to my friend. He is more interested in the orchards here. I wonder if the orchard owners will agree to contracting your orchards."

"I don't know what your friend is going to do when he rents out the orchard, and how long he wants to rent it out, and how much he has to pay."

Wang Xilong turned to look at Chen Mo.

"Of course, we need to plant fruit trees in the orchard, but we may need to change varieties. As for the time, it will be at least 5 years. As for the money, we can negotiate slowly. And after the orchard here is contracted, we may also recruit Some workers are working. If you are willing, you can come and work. You don’t have to go out to work.”

Chen Mo directly expressed his thoughts. After thinking about it just now, he had decided to invest in agriculture.

However, in order to lose money, you still need to make some preparations.

"Are you serious?"

Wang Xilong's body trembled when he heard Chen Mo's words, with a hint of hope in his eyes.

If this disaster-stricken orchard could be rented out and he could find a job here, how could he not be willing to do so?

Moreover, fruit trees must still be planted in the orchards that are contracted out, and there will be no harm to the orchards.

I’m afraid no fruit farmer would refuse such a good thing.

Especially if the orchard was hit by a disaster, they would even be willing to pay a cheaper price.

After all, if they didn't contract it out, this orchard wouldn't bring them any income.

"Of course I am serious. I came here to inspect. I have just told him about the situation of the orchard. He said that he is very optimistic about the orchard here. He is already on his way here. I am afraid he can arrive here tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. ”

Chen Mo continued to implement the policy of "I Have a Friend" to the end.

When the time comes, I can just randomly transfer someone from the group and come here to manage it.
