Chapter 54 Picking up cotton to feed teammates

It was not a joke that the staff told He Jun and Guan Zhengyang to rest.

The local area is really wide.Because of the vast land, mechanization can be better realized.The staff smiled stupidly: "There are only a dozen people in charge of a thousand acres of land here. The work is very simple and there is a lot of money. Recently, the price of cotton has increased again."

The staff took them to the cotton picking machine: "In the past, there were actually special cotton picking trains in many places. The people on the train were all picking cotton. After all, the salary of tens of thousands a month, including food and lodging, is not available everywhere. Yes. Now it is much less, because our side is basically mechanized.”

In the past, one person could pay tens of thousands of dollars per person, but now only a dozen people need to be hired, and the price of cotton has increased. It seems that you can hear the sound of coins colliding as the staff said.

Not to mention ordinary people, both He Jun and Guan Zhengyang were moved when they heard it.

A group of people turned their heads and sat on the cotton picker, and were shocked by the local high efficiency.

The large machines that pick cotton are called cotton pickers.From the outside, it is difficult for others to see how the cotton picker works.Fortunately, He Jun read some relevant information on the train that came over, and he already knew the local situation, so he could say a few words: "Is this a cotton picker for picking spindles?"

The staff did not expect He Jun to speak such professional words, and nodded: "Hey, yes."

He pointed to some yellow splint-like accessories on the front of the machine: "The guide will bring the cotton to the picking room. It will probably squeeze the cotton to such a width."

He gestured with both hands, and it was less than 10 centimeters: "Then the picking spindle stretched out and hooked the cotton. Just pull it on yourself. Then it will run inside. The cotton will go into the box behind and roll into pieces. A cylinder. It was thrown into the field directly. It will be collected later."

It is now the final stage of cotton picking.There are cotton pickers in operation in the field, and there are also cotton cylinders that are specially transported from the field.These cylinders are transported to trucks, which can hold no more than six cotton cylinders.

The outside of the cylinder is bright yellow, and the inside can be seen from the side to be full of snow-white cotton.

Guan Zhengyang asked curiously: "Will the cotton be washed clean inside?"

The staff responded: "Yes. The soil will be removed in the car, and some garbage will be cleaned up. It is already very clean after picking. It will be processed later."

He Jun thought about it, thinking about the rice harvester: "There is also a special combine harvester for rice. Unfortunately, the current combine harvesters are very large. There are too many waters in the south, and the land is not very convenient to use."

Not like the North.Due to lack of water in the north, drip irrigation is used for watering.Large-scale planting can naturally use such convenient pickers and harvesters.Small-scale planting and areas with difficult terrain are not suitable for large harvesters at all.

The staff also knew after listening: "Oh, that's right. If there is an idea, someone must have thought about it. Rice planting and cotton planting are both big things. If people can save themselves a little effort, they can think of many ways. If Which one is not used much, it must be because the effect is not very good."

These words were so true that both He Jun and Guan Zhengyang laughed.

He Jun and Guan Zhengyang came to learn something halfway, of course they are not as good as those who have studied for many years.As the staff said, if there is an idea that no one uses, it may not be that no one has thought of it, but it may be eliminated because of its poor effect.

The same goes for cotton picking.

He Jun has checked the information.He was dazzled by the types of picking machines, and he didn't know how there were so many types.In addition to picking cotton, there are also planting machines: "I remember that the machines for cotton planting are also very different from the machines for rice transplanting."

He gestured to the staff: "It's spreading seeds on one side, and there's a membrane on the other side."

The staff immediately understood what He Jun meant.Planting cotton is a matter of spring.Now the program shooting will definitely not be filmed until the beginning of next spring.He could only verbally say to He Jun: "Yes. The seeds are sown at a certain speed. After the seeds are sown, they will be covered with a layer of mulch. The machines are all driverless, and they will start on their own. .Our people are right behind, shoveling some mud every two meters to cover the mulch.”

There is a little more little knowledge that is not needed at all.

Because there is no need for mulch to grow rice.

He Jun laughed: "A plant is really a planting method. Before, I thought it should be similar. Now that I think about planting rice in the north, it is a bit similar, but the method that can be copied has been copied."

The rest is all about features.

For example, cotton needs to be picked, while rice needs to be harvested.It is completely different when it is handled manually, and it must be another when it is mechanized.

"Some are the same. Fertilization is the same. Now we all use drones to fertilize. Soon. My son will be able to drive drones." The staff member said so.

He thought of his son, with a little pride on his face: "He studied agriculture. He got a drone certificate. During the holidays, he fertilized our land. It's up to him to work in the future. If he wants to come back, he can come back. Do it, if you want to go outside, go outside. There are more opportunities outside."

It is said that there are many opportunities outside, but in the meaning, I still hope that the child can inherit the father's career.

"Speaking of it." The staff didn't just pick the good ones, but also talked about the shortcomings, "The cotton picker is not all-purpose. There will be some cotton left. Find a machine to pick the remaining cotton that falls on the ground. It’s 80 yuan per mu. It’s cheaper than labor. Labor costs 600 yuan a day.”

Guan Zhengyang was quick-witted and calculated: "If you calculate 500 a day and 30 days a month, that's [-]!"

No wonder everyone came to pick cotton.That's a lot of money.We must know that there are not many fresh graduates from big factories in first-tier cities who can get a salary of [-] a month.Of course, the benefits and benefits of the two are different, and the future prospects are also different.

But it's no wonder that people here now use mechanical harvesting, which is much cheaper.

"The remaining cotton is generally not of poor quality, but there are too many miscellaneous things in it. The good ones are used to make clothes, quilts for sleeping and so on. These impurities, after removing impurities, are also Just use it rough. Use it more in industry.”

On the construction site, some greenhouses and the like need to be covered with quilts, so these low-grade cottons are used.

After visiting the cotton field, although the staff knew that the program crew was going to shoot here, they didn't know what to arrange for He Jun and Guan Zhengyang.It's all mechanized now.

If you really want to say that it can be done manually...

He wondered: "Do you want to go to the roadside to pick up cotton and sell it?"

He Jun and Guan Zhengyang looked at this person.

"Cotton is something that flies all over the sky when the wind blows. The cars transporting cotton come and go, the wind is strong on the road, and there is a lot of cotton on the side of the road. The cotton is of good quality, and it is very wasteful when it falls. But you say let's pick it up." , I don’t have the leisure time. But we also charge. Four yuan a catty.” The staff bewitched them, “I’m here, even if you don’t sell it, it’s not bad to pick up a quilt for yourself.”

To be honest, there are quite a few people who pick up cotton and sell it locally.Pick up a snakeskin bag ten catties, that is 40 yuan.If it sells for three bags, it will directly cost hundreds.

The quality of the local cotton is very good. Although it is not expensive to buy a quilt weighing a few kilograms, picking it up by yourself is equivalent to prostitution!Only need to spend a processing money.

Eider down quilts are popular now, but many people still prefer cotton quilts.For example, the youngest Qiu Feng and his grandma both like to cover with quilts.

He Jun and Guan Zhengyang looked at each other.

He Jun suggested: "Why don't we get five quilts back?"

Guan Zhengyang seconded: "I think it's very good."

With such a total, the itinerary of picking cotton by mechanization, which seemed serious, suddenly became the itinerary of manually picking cotton by the roadside.The staff drove the two of them back to the road.

There are no people around the road, and the land is barren.Except for this road, there is only cotton on the wasteland.Some white flowers are so clean that people can even see the cotton seeds inside.Some are dirty and unsuitable because they fell on the side of the road and experienced exhaust gas for a few days.

He Jun and Guan Zhengyang each got a snakeskin bag and a pair of pliers, and started to act at both ends.

Seeing the excitement of the two, the staff recalled the incident when Guan Zhengyang pulled him to be his brother, and laughed straight away: "I said I wanted to relax, but now I'm busy again." Still busy spontaneously.

He Jun and Guan Zhengyang paid no attention to what the staff were feeling.

He Jun picked up the cleanest cotton that he saw, and was calculating: "No matter how cheap a quilt is, it will cost hundreds of dollars. The thicker one will be two or three hundred, right? If you add a brand, the selling price will be even more expensive."

"Five quilts can be as thick as a thousand." He Jun smiled at the camera, "Saving a lot of money."

The locals know exactly where the cotton falls.But where there is a lot of cotton, there are more people picking it up.So the place He Jun and Guan Zhengyang came to has fewer vehicles, and people can hardly see the cotton pickers.

Even so, He Jun picked up a lump of cotton casually, and stuffed the bag bulging in a short while.He thought about getting more, and pressed it into the bag.

On the other end, Guan Zhengyang's hand speed was quite fast.He has already picked up a bag, and he is still humming a ditty without lyrics.Halfway through humming, he started to toss again: "This cotton is for the captain, this cotton is for me, this cotton is for Tong Wenle..."

After reporting everyone's names, he patted his bulging fruit bag with satisfaction: "At a young age, I have endured hardships that I shouldn't have to bear at this age. Picking up trash to support my teammates."

Who would have thought of this?

He shook his head and said, "Hey, poor little sun. Four yuan a catty, I don't know how many meals they can feed. These prodigal men."

The barrage originally saw this, and kept praising them for making full use of resources.

The words of praise stopped abruptly, and turned into hilarious laughter in an instant.

"I didn't have the opportunity to pick up trash when I was a mess, but now that I'm developed, I can pick up trash to support my teammates."

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, don't be a person who steals battery cars in the future, but be a person who picks up cotton!"

"Really, there are thousands of pieces of cotton picked for a month."

"It's a pity that cotton is not harvested every month, otherwise I would like to pick cotton."

"It is impossible to work part-time, but you can pick cotton!"

No one would have imagined that the first hot searched topic in the eighth issue would become #按蒜养维友友#.
