Chapter 1226 1226. Tea seedlings delivered

This year, the whole Yunqiao Village started with a busy start.

However, no one in the village was unhappy.

After all, at this time in previous years, they would most often be tidying up their own vegetable gardens and preparing some rapeseeds, seedlings, etc. It could be said to be the most leisurely time in their daily lives.

But for farmers, idleness means no money.

Nowadays, even rice has to be bought. If they stay idle for a long time, they will feel anxious. This is why they have frequently gone out to work in recent years.

But this year is different.

Since the age of fifteen, the old Song family has been busy.

When the weather is freezing, people start digging and raking the soil and spreading base fertilizer on the mountains. On the riverbank pasture, the manure from cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks is fermented extremely thoroughly, just waiting to be put to use!

When the days warmed up day by day, and the land that totaled thousands of acres was cleared, their family began to plant fruit trees again.

Carloads of fruit trees were transported from all over the country, and Professor Song's connections played a great role at this moment.

Song Tan doesn't have to worry about which varieties to choose, early or late maturity, or where to plant what, and how to use the land underneath...

For everything, Yan Ran and the three of them had already made plans last year.

In the spring of this year, there were two more on-site adjustments. Song Tan only needed to confirm and then arrange for people to plant.

Even the planting was watched by the three of them.

To be honest, Song Tan thinks the salary is really worth it!

Compared to this, the strawberry patch they cultivated alone behind the dormitory was nothing.

Of course, Song Tan also knew why Yan Ran and the three of them asked Chen Yuan to help them keep an eye on this matter.

But it is difficult for agricultural students to graduate, and no matter how bad the strawberries are, they are still more delicious than ordinary ones. No matter who takes advantage of them or whatever, the three of them will cry in the field.

Chen Yuan asked people to help keep an eye on him, which also made people feel more at ease.

Song Tan wanted them to stay at home for a long time, but he never thought that they would not be able to graduate.

However, although the land has become much larger, their family is even more relaxed in this busy early spring than last year when they only had a few acres of land.

Even Ulan murmured:

"It's convenient to hire someone. Last year, your dad and I were being bossed around..."

Song Tan didn't want to either.

"But there was no money at that time, and the food was not good, so I just wanted to seize the opportunity in the spring..."

Fortunately, they have been busy for a while, but the subsequent income has also laid a foundation, and it has also given their family more funds to expand their territory.

"That's true." Ulan also nodded: "It's just that I'm really too busy. Every night when I close my eyes, I have to think about what I'm going to do tomorrow, and I have to work non-stop the next day... It's so panicky."

Qiao Qiao looked over and said, "I'm not panicking. I've even learned how to grow milkvetch."

He was a little unhappy: "Sister, my mother didn't teach me well before. She said that the way you plant corn can be used to plant everything else, but when I plant milkvetch like that, what grows is not as lush as the way my sister scatters it casually. "

No, just scatter a handful and the seeds will be so dense!

And Qiao Qiao's place is just like planting corn. Three or two seeds are placed in a hole, and there is a space in between...then what grows is sparse, isn't it?

"It's okay," Song Tan comforted him: "The milkvetch seeds you sowed in winter are very good. Now look at the green velvet seeds. They can be picked and sold soon."

Now that it has just warmed up, the milkvetch has already sprouted green buds and leaves. From a distance, it looks like it is covered with a layer of gauze, which is particularly moving.

Not only the rice fields, but also the riverbanks are also sprinkled with large tracts. When combined with other fresh and tender pastures, the cattle and sheep that have been waiting for the whole winter can eat it happily every day.

The old big oxen were mixed among these cattle, and they didn't feel lonely at all at this moment.

Of course, Song Tan also knew that Old Man Li actually visited it often.

But facing this old man, none of the Lao Song family wanted to say anything. Anyway, now that he is looking at the tea mountain that once belonged to him, he is working hard and diligently...

so be it.

…

Since spring planting began, trucks delivering seedlings have been non-stop every day. Fortunately, the road was built last year, otherwise just delivering goods would be a hassle.

Three more trucks of seedlings arrived this morning.

Xiaozhu, the party secretary, saw it from afar and strolled over.

After having breakfast first, he asked: "I just saw that you led the car to the mountain over Old Man Li. What was it?"

"Tea seedlings." Song Tan replied: "There were only a dozen acres of old tea trees on the mountain, but they were all pruned in winter - they grew too tall, one or two meters high, and they couldn't even be picked."

"The remaining wasteland will be reclaimed and planted with tea. Otherwise, if the annual output is so low, Boss Chang will really cry to death."

Tea seedlings can be picked in two to three years after they are planted. Although the yield is slightly low at the beginning, they grow very rapidly. In comparison, it doesn't require too much care, and now it has become the main profit-making force of the Old Song family.

Therefore, even though his family could not drink that much, Song Tan still arranged for more than one hundred acres of land, which was a lot of sacrifice.

Otherwise, this land can be used to grow peanuts, corn...what else can't be grown?

Party Secretary Xiao Zhu didn't know the difficulty of growing tea. At this moment, he only had a good impression of Boss Chang, so he nodded:

"Okay, there's more tea leaves, I'll buy more then - picking will also require more people, right? There will be work in the village then."

When she said this, she remembered: "By the way, the electricity reform is about to start! This summer, you don't have to worry about not being able to use the air conditioner at home, up or down the mountain."

This is really good news!

Song Tan sighed, and looked at Secretary Xiao Zhu meaningfully: "Our city's leaders are really resolute!"

Secretary Xiao Zhu smiled silently, and at this moment he only asked another question out of curiosity:

"I saw you planted a lot of persimmon trees over on Shitoupo, are they crisp persimmons or those fire crystal persimmons?"

"Both."

"The original persimmon trees in that area were also re-grafted, after all, they are all big trees, it would be a pity to destroy them."

That piece of wasteland is really too big, and Brother Sun spent a month just to clean up this piece of land, and now the seeds of wild chrysanthemums have been sown.

It's just that the sunflowers will be a little later, for fear that they will be frozen by cold air.

Secretary Xiao Zhu recalled that everyone had been working for the Song family since the beginning of spring, and they had not been idle every day. At this moment, he was also smiling from ear to ear:

"That's great, that's great! There is work to do in the village, and everyone can stay to develop better. Otherwise, it will all depend on your family, and no matter how much strength you have, you can't help it."

Song Tan was also happy: "Yes, if everyone stays in the village, we can do such drastic things. Otherwise, we can't find workers and we can't farm."

Yesterday's emo energy has not passed... I lay down all day! ε=(ο｀*))) Alas.

Good morning.

That's all for today. Cheer up tomorrow!

Spring acceleration, because many plantings have been written at the beginning, I won't repeat them!
