Chapter 13211321. The excitement of the neighbors
The door of Zhou Shunshui's home, the first one to sell vegetables, was so lively!
Yes, Lao Song's food is delicious, and they sell it online very well, but isn't there a big boss who takes care of it?
What does it have to do with the vegetables grown in their fields?
Oh, it does have something to do with it. They bought these seedlings last winter under the trick of the village party secretary. Each family had to work for two days and spend 10 yuan a plant to buy them.
Although the old Song family was kind and said that in the first year of work, they were worried that they would not be able to plant well, so the seedlings they gave were quite big... but the vegetable seedlings cost 10 yuan!
Those who signed and paid half of the money at the beginning still had two families, and they insisted on clamoring for the money back, and they didn't live or die.
To be honest, their family is a bit weak.
But there is no other way. The old Song family will recruit people to do the work this year. If the cooperation talks collapse and they are not asked to do the work, wouldn't it be a big loss?
As for saying that someone is guaranteed to come to collect this dish—oh, have you heard this kind of empty talk too often in recent years?
Their village is reliable. The leaders above are still down-to-earth. But when I went out to work, I heard from other villages that they were either trying to plant fruit trees or trying to plant new products, but when the fruits were ripe they couldn't sell them and they still owed credit union loans.
Who can I talk to to reason with this?
Zhou Shunshui and his wife are not very smart. The farthest place they have been to in their lives is Fucheng where they work. They originally wanted to regret it, but their son, who works in the city, said that since the family owned so much land and needed people to work, it would be better not to offend them in the first place...
Who knows!
The vegetables were transplanted in February when the weather was very cold. I had to cover them with straw curtains every night to avoid being damaged by the frost. But let’s talk about how meticulous it is... What’s so meticulous about this radish and cabbage?
Who knows!
It only took more than a month to plant, which meant that it took a little effort to put up the straw curtain and lift it up, but nothing else! Just this, you can earn more than 4,000 from this sale today? !
After deducting the cost, there are still more than 3,000 yuan!
Since when did it become so easy to earn this money? During this period, he and his wife also did a lot of work for the old Song family, and the couple also earned more than 3,000 yuan.
At this moment, Zhou Shunshui and his wife looked at the villagers all over the yard who came to inquire. Their cheeks were sore from laughing and they couldn’t help it.
"What's the hurry? What's the hurry? I haven't seen the money yet. The branch secretary Zhu said that the money will not arrive until someone clicks to receive the goods."
He tried to lower his lips.
“Isn’t that still rich?” the neighbors shouted: “We wish the branch secretary is young and tender-faced, but he never makes empty words.”
"That's right! She said that the live broadcast is for people in our village to sell things. As long as we have good things, we can sell them. Can we rely on you for this little money?"
"That's not necessarily the case..." Zhou Shunshui wiped his face and said, "If something goes bad when you send it here, you'll have to pay for it, and we can bear that in mind."
“Oh, how bad can these radish and cabbage be? We have all heard that we specially chose this expensive Fengfeng Express just to get fresh food.”
“I’ve never seen this cabbage cost 7 yuan per catty...yesterday I said I would cut down one and eat it myself first.”
“What are you eating? It costs dozens of yuan per head. Can’t you buy two kilograms of meat? My parents’ family has the cabbage we used to have. I’ll cut two for you later.”
"Have you signed up to sell online? Party Secretary Zhu said that if you find it troublesome to sell online, we have a local buyer who will come and collect it in a while."
“Then calculate the price, the difference between the two is not much.”
“I can do either. I’ll sell whichever one comes first.”
"I want to sell online. My daughter said that she will sell my vegetables next time. Can you ask me to come up and say a few words? Our food is served well. After saying a few words, if everyone remembers me, what else will I sell next time? Faster too."
"Of course it can! The first two live broadcasts were broadcasted by the old Song family and Party Secretary Zhu with the girl from the next village. They said that we couldn't find anyone to support us here..."
"Then I also want to say a few words. My food is not bad either." "You haven't mixed up your own food, have you? If you mix it up, not only will you have to lose money, but next time whether it's online or from someone who buys it, I didn’t even introduce our family…”
Everyone was chatting in a lively manner. Just thinking about the income of three to four thousand yuan from those vegetable seedlings that were planted casually before, they just wanted to rush into Lao Song's house immediately and ask how the next crop of vegetable seedlings was sold.
These months of March and April are a good time to plant melons and beans!
…
At Lao Song's house, Party Secretary Xiao Zhu is also thinking about what to plant next to generate income for the villagers.
"It's not good to rely on you like this all the time." She looked at Song Tan, quite curious at the moment: "What are you planning?"
Song Tan thought for a while and said slowly: "I'm still at a preliminary idea. Whether it can be done or not depends on everyone's opinions - what do you think of the endless bean sticks?"
Not to mention, everyone present accepted it well.
First of all, the bean sprouts from the old Song family are delicious. Secondly, they have a lot of food, so I eat it every once in a while, but I don’t feel disgusted at all.
Xiao Zhu, the branch secretary, thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, this is easy to take care of, has high yield, and is suitable regardless of the planting environment. Are you also the one planting the seedlings?"
Song Tan shook his head: "I also watched the live broadcast this morning. In fact, they can grow many vegetables, but most of them are not cost-effective with express delivery."
“For example, the cabbage that costs 7 yuan a pound, excluding shipping costs, is only a little more than the purchase price given by Zhao. So what I am thinking is, can the village collective register for secondary processing of agricultural products or something?”
“In the summer, we can let them grow cowpeas and take them back. Whether they are dried cowpeas or made into sour cowpeas, they can be sold online in a steady stream.”
It also saves them from having to buy vegetable seedlings all the time. They can't rely on others for every penny they earn.
As for Lao Zhao collecting vegetables and so on...
Tian Tian’s family is still very motivated and wants to keep selling vegetables. But after thinking about it, she had nothing to give to the Old Song family, so why did she keep taking vegetable seedlings?
In this regard, Yan Ran and the other three have different opinions—
“Then help us set up an experimental field.”
“It can be seen from the harvest of the villagers’ vegetables that transplanting seedlings will also affect the quality of their homes.”
“What about seed iteration?”
It is impossible for them to ask about the unique formula of the Lao Song family, but how to preserve this advantage and then promote it is the most fundamental proposition for their agricultural students.
“The teacher helped us apply for the Houji Seed Laboratory project, and Song Tan is a partner. But the three of us have no qualifications or achievements, and we don’t have much funding, otherwise we would just cooperate with you.”
“We select the best seeds for you every year. Accordingly, we don’t get involved in the cultivation and planning of the field, but we need various data and sampling during harvesting.”
“How about it, can it be done?”
