Heavenly garden farmer

After Zheng Yunan had more funds in his hands, he decided to plant all the open land on the back mountain with crops, but he had already discovered that the profit margins and sales of this kind of vegetables were limited, so it was still not possible to grow crops in the back hills. Vegetables are all planted on the mountain, and there must be room for other crops.

When Zheng Yunan was still struggling with what to plant, Kong Xuan, who had nothing to do all day, whispered in his ear: "The strawberries you brought back from Granny Han's house yesterday tasted pretty good." , but it’s not too sweet, and this fruit has to be grown at home to be delicious, and the taste of bought ones isn’t that good.”

For Kong Xuan's proposal full of encouragement and expectation, Zheng Yunan of course immediately agreed: "Then grow strawberries!"

However, strawberry is already considered a relatively expensive fruit, and it is more complicated to grow, and it is not as easy to care for as vegetables, so Zheng Yunan consulted a lot of information in advance.

In the countryside, planting strawberries is already considered a relatively large investment. According to the tens of thousands of dollars that Zheng Yunan has now, the investment is not much.He decided to plant two acres of strawberries to test the water first, so as not to lose everything.

However, after field inspection, he discovered that the investment in growing strawberries was more than he had imagined. Not to mention that the cost of buying strawberry seedlings was not low, the greenhouse that had to be prepared in advance would cost tens of thousands.

Now that the two acres of vegetable garden behind Zheng Yunan's farm have almost harvested vegetables, they have sold a total of nearly 4 yuan during this period. Originally, this was considered a lot of income for Zheng Yunan. Yes, but if you want to invest in growing strawberries, you may have to save a little.

This is because of the primary fertilizer and the magical water well rewarded by the system before, saving Zheng Yunan a lot of expenses and time to make a profit.

But think about it, not a few months ago, Zheng Yunan still had nothing, and couldn’t even afford to rent a small rental house without air conditioning for less than 500 yuan. , Thinking about it this way, Zheng Yunan felt that there was nothing to worry about.

After making up his mind, Zheng Yunan first invited the old Wang from the village to his house as a guest, and then set up a table of good dishes.

Because Xishui Village is relatively close to the urban area, the quick-witted villagers in the village have found many ways to make a living.For example, Lao Wang, Granny Han's cousin, has no farming skills and doesn't want to work in the city, but he has a tricky eye and can speak well, so he started a second-course vegetable seller's business.He knew a lot of people in the city, so he wandered around the surrounding villages all year round, collecting vegetables, fruits, or crops at low prices, or helping those farmers contact vegetable and fruit merchants, etc., to earn intermediary fees.He is the clearest about some doorways, connections, etc. in the middle.

And although this old Wang is cunning, because he was rescued by Granny Han's old couple since he was a child, he is the most filial to their old couple.Also because Granny Han and the others were mediating between the two, the old Wang also helped Zheng Yunan a lot.

Zheng Yunan invited Lao Wang to his house for dinner this time because he wanted to ask him if he could introduce a reliable foreman to build a greenhouse for him. After all, this strawberry greenhouse will last for a long time, so the foundation must be laid well.

It turned out that Lao Wang was the right one for this matter, and he took the initiative to take on the task as soon as he heard it, and gave Zheng Yunan a guarantee that he would help him find a reliable foreman.

In addition, even Zheng Yunan's purchase of strawberry seedlings in the later stage, he also helped him agree, saying that he knew cheap and good-quality merchants, so just contact him directly when the time comes.

Zheng Yunan was suffering from not being able to find a way out, and Lao Wang's words solved a big problem in his heart. He thanked Lao Wang again and again.

Lao Wang picked up a chopstick of food, half-closed his eyes and swallowed it with enjoyment, then smiled and said to Zheng Yunan: "Xiao Zheng, you don't have to thank me, let's not say that I have been running outside all day, I The cousin and aunt are all thanks to your daily care. Besides, as long as you have good food, I ate it this time, and I should help you as much as possible. Your brother Wang and I have some face outside. It’s not like I haven’t tasted dishes from five-star hotels, but that’s not worth your skill!”

Zheng Yunan: "Brother Wang, you are overrated."

Zheng Yunan still knows his skills well, he is really good at making those home-cooked dishes, but compared with those chefs, his creativity and delicacy are not one or two points behind.

Lao Wang drank a little wine, and then began to chatter all over the place: "Speaking of which, people keep cats and dogs as pets, and this is the first time I've seen people keep peacocks, and you, a peacock That's great, look at this coat color, this physique, it's much better than the one in the zoo. And I see that your peacock is raised with spirituality, and you know how to eat on the table hahahahaha! That's the appetite It’s not small, I guess it looks pretty solid, right?”

Lao Wang was already a little confused from drinking, and he didn't realize that the peacock beside him who had been commented on by him had changed in momentum. When he talked about getting up, he was even going to pat Kong Xuan's neck with his hand, so that Zheng Zheng, who had no time to stop him, had changed. Hanan's heart was raised in his throat.

Sure enough, before Lao Wang's hand touched Kong Xuan, he was slapped away by his wings. Kong Xuan's strength was quite strong, and the back of Lao Wang's hand turned red instantly.

"Chirp!" Kong Xuan yelled warningly at Old Wang, intending to pounce on him and beat him up if there was any disagreement.

Lao Wang didn't care at all, he rubbed the back of his hand that was a little sore from being patted, and then said to Zheng Yunan with a smile: "Hey, the peacock you raised has a pretty strong temper."

But fortunately, he has no plans to attack Kong Xuan anymore, otherwise Zheng Yunan is not sure if he can stop Kong Xuan.

During the period when he invited people to build a greenhouse, Zheng Yunan planted many kinds of vegetables in the back mountain. Now he is very comfortable growing vegetables. He has already planted all kinds of vegetables.

In this way, while waiting for the strawberries to ripen, he can also rely on these vegetables to maintain his income.

After the greenhouse was set up, Zheng Yunan invited someone to prepare and fertilize the strawberry field together in advance. After three days of enduring the "fragrance" of the farmyard manure, he finally finished all the preparatory work.

Then, Zheng Yunan contacted the merchant who sold strawberry seedlings through Lao Wang.Zheng Yunan had no experience with these before, but when he was inspecting the goods, when he held the strawberry seedling in his hand, he felt the strong life coming from the seedling, the seedling was green and straight, Full of vitality, Zheng Yunan knew in his heart: These seedlings are of good quality, and the survival rate in the future must be very high.

The strawberry species Zheng Yunan chose this time is "Zhang Ji", which is commonly known as cream strawberry in the market. This kind of strawberry is big in size and sweet in fruit.When Zheng Yunan passed by the fruit shop, he could only look at the dozens of dollars a catty of creamy strawberries and feel his empty wallet. He didn't expect that now he would have a day of planting strawberries on a large scale.

It is indeed unpredictable.

Zheng Yunan ordered a total of 0.3 strawberry seedlings, and each plant was calculated at 4 yuan. In addition to building a greenhouse, buying fertilizers, and planting vegetables before, the nearly [-] yuan in his previous account suddenly disappeared. Empty again.

When he got home, he checked the balance in his account which had just reached four digits. In the past few days, Zheng Yunan experienced what it was like to go from suddenly rich to abject poverty.

"Why don't we start a vegetarian diet in the next month?" Zheng Yunan looked at Kong Xuan next to him, and suggested with a guilty conscience.

Kong Xuan didn't speak, but just looked at Zheng Yunan coldly without saying a word, with two words written in his eyes: "How dare you!"

Zheng Yunan made up his mind, and answered "Don't dare" silently in his heart, and then put on a warm smile on his face: "We are also landlords with tens of thousands of acres of fertile land now, how can we make you a vegetarian every day? Don't worry, I'll go out and buy an old hen right now!"

Fortunately, although Kong Xuan ate a lot every day, the vegetables in the vegetable garden barely lasted for a while, and he was able to sell some money intermittently. Although he didn't save much money, at least he would not be able to make ends meet.

During this period of time, except for Kong Xuan appearing in front of Zheng Yunan on time for three meals a day, he often does not see the bird at other times.Zheng Yunan was a little strange at first, where he could go with a peacock. It wasn't until he saw Kong Xuan who was meditating on Longevity Hill that he finally understood.

It seems that Kong Xuan is trying to absorb spiritual energy to restore his human form!

It's just this peacock sitting cross-legged on the ground, meditating with its eyes closed, which is really funny. The more serious Kong Xuan's expression is, the more stilted it looks.

In order not to be angered by Kong Xuan's discovery, Zheng Yunan suppressed his laughter, took out his mobile phone and secretly took a photo, and then hurried through the maze and returned home to laugh out loud.

He had to keep this photo well, it might be of some use in the future.

In this way, relying on selling the leftover vegetables in the vegetable garden for nearly a month, Zheng Yunan finally waited until the vegetables on the back mountain matured in large areas.

When this batch of vegetables was planted, the primary fertilizer rewarded by the system had been used up, so they could only use ordinary fertilizers, plus irrigation from the well in the yard.When this batch of vegetables matured, Zheng Yunan found that the vegetables that did not use primary fertilizer not only matured a little slower, but also the yield per mu was not as high as before.

Fortunately, the taste and appearance are still the same.

However, after this batch of vegetables matured, there was another problem. The number of vegetables in the vegetable garden before was small, and the bearded man could just consume them.But this time he planted more than ten acres of various vegetables, even two bearded people couldn't consume them all.
