I dig ancient tombs for the country

Chapter 236: One Twist and Three Twists, Finally a True Fruit

After the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the whole village, men, women, old and young, went out together.The digging of the ground, the tree digging of the tree pits, the mountains and the plains are full of hard-working people, everyone is working hard, and no one is crying.

Hongmao and I specially bought two large trucks for hauling goods. Every day at dawn, we took the villagers to the mountains to open up wasteland, and bought saplings from all over the place.The folks suggested planting more tangerines and pomelo, saying that the sales of these two fruits are relatively good.We went to several places before we bought one thousand Shatang orange saplings and one thousand honey pomelo saplings.

Grapefruit, a fruit rich in vitamin C, has gradually been accepted by the world in recent years.We plan to plant [-] trees first, and if the benefits are good and the cost is low, we will develop thousands of trees in the coming year.

Sydney and peaches are also our target of planting. I made a rough plan. There are 30 acres of pears and peaches, and the rest will be planted as Shatangju.

Two months later, the saplings all over the mountain had been planted, and everyone smiled brightly when they saw the fruits of many days of labor.

In order to facilitate the watering of the fruit trees, we also specially dug several deep wells, mechanical pumps, and built a pumping room for unified management.

We have arranged staff for each different area, weeding, fertilizing, and regular watering.In order to increase the yield of fruit trees, we specially visited several agricultural experts, learned from fruit growers in other places, and consulted on the grafting techniques of various fruit trees.

Seeing the fruit seedlings all over the mountain grow gratifyingly under the nourishment of the sun and rain.However, the weather was not so beautiful. As soon as summer came, there were several heavy rainstorms in succession, which washed away many seedlings.The villagers looked at the seedlings washed away by the rain with distress, and their hearts were overwhelmed, feeling very uncomfortable.

There are risks in doing anything, and it is not always smooth sailing.Red Mao and I took the trouble to comfort everyone and tell them not to worry. We are planning measures to deal with the heavy rain.The rainstorm season is nothing more than summer, and our fruit trees are planted on the mountains, so it is inevitable to encounter flash floods.This is also just a reminder to everyone, so as to avoid such a situation when the fruit is harvested, I am afraid that the loss will really be heavy.

There are three types of peaches we grow: peaches, honey peaches, and flat peaches.Due to the good terrain and sufficient sunlight, the small saplings planted in the first year have produced a lot of fruit, especially peaches. Not only the fruit trees are growing gratifyingly, but also the connected peaches have the desire to eat. Not to mention the big ones, they are also special. Sweet, crunchy, just like honey, the chin is full of juice after a bite, which makes people have endless aftertaste.

One of the most annoying problems with peaches is that there are many insects. Many peaches are infested with insects. The beautiful peaches are scarred by those insect bites. Let’s not say they are ugly, and they can’t be sold at a price. We have worked so hard for so many days. In the end, even half of the cost was not recovered, and the villagers fell into distress again.

Hongmao and I visited the county agricultural station and agricultural bureau non-stop, visited a few technicians, and searched a lot of information on the Internet, only to realize that there are many places where we are not doing enough, so that insects and production Low.

For this reason, our village held another seminar, specially hired several technicians, and organized a group of young men and women to go to a study class held by the agricultural department to learn the planting methods of various fruit trees, grafting and maggot problems.

In the summer of the coming year, all kinds of fruit trees grew a lot taller, lush and luxuriant. All of us breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the trees had already taken shape and nothing would happen again.

Unexpectedly, in summer, there was no rain for two consecutive months, and there was drought everywhere.Especially in our orchards, because on the mountain, the water resources are not very sufficient, so that many trees cannot drink water, and they die due to severe water shortage and drought.

I thought that this year would be better than last year, but the loss was more serious than last year. Later, we spent a lot of money just to replant saplings.This is exactly in line with the old saying that there are many twists and turns in planting fruit trees.

By the third year, the fruit trees are basically finalized.In spring, dozens of acres of peach forests are full of pink peach blossoms, which look like a rainbow in the sky from a distance.These peach blossoms have attracted thousands of bees, and we are very happy to watch them work hard to pick flowers and make honey.

Suddenly, like a spring breeze overnight, thousands of trees and pear trees bloom.Overnight, patches of pear trees are dotted with pure white pear blossoms, like snowflakes all over the sky. Being in them, the scent of flowers bursts out, making you feel relaxed and happy.

In autumn, the fruit trees all over the mountains and plains are full of fruits, and the villagers can't close their mouths when they smile.

But when it comes to the season of receiving goods, the problem has appeared in front of us again.Because there is no market, many tangerines are rotten in the field.Only then did we realize that it is not enough to rely on retail sales alone.So we set up a sales team again and formulated a series of sales plans.We will give certain rewards to those who sell more. We have set up three kinds of rewards: the first prize is a Santana car, the second prize is a Hongqi car, and the third prize is a van.

The village was boiling, and they showed their skills one by one, looking for people, dragging connections, using relatives and friends, no matter what method they used, as long as the sales increased, everyone would make a profit.

The yield of shatangju per mu is close to [-] jin, and the yield has increased, but it is not suitable for preservation, especially in rainy days, as it is easy to rot.So everyone thought of another way, opened a canning factory in the village, and asked the women in the village to work in the factory. Since they made money, they didn't have to worry about not being able to sell the oranges.

Peaches and pears, not to mention, were pulled away in carloads and boxes, and they were exchanged for brand new tickets.

The production of honey pomelo is high and many people buy it, so we have grown from 5000 trees at the beginning to more than 30 trees, with a harvest of nearly 30 jin, and a net profit of more than [-] yuan.

With the high yield and high income of fruits, every household has improved their living conditions. All of a sudden, people in the village went to the mall to buy various electrical appliances and some even bought cars with a lot of banknotes in their pockets.The living conditions of the villagers are getting better and better, and they are all happy, and they send their children to the county town to attend the best schools and receive higher education.

Hongmao and I hung the signboard of the chairman and walked around the orchard every day, feeling very satisfied.Looking at the gratifying harvest and the fruits that were taken away by the car, I felt an indescribable sweetness and pride in my heart. We believe that as long as we find the right direction, we can bring benefits to everyone and go a long way. Very far……

Fanjia Town became rich, and the neighboring villages followed our example and began to grow a large number of fruits and vegetables.They have no experience, so they come to our village to visit and study. The people in our village, regardless of gender, age and age, all warmly entertain them. They take care of food, housing, and teaching planting techniques.

All of a sudden, our Fanjia Town became famous, even people from other provinces came to our village to study and visit.
