Chapter 718 718. Demolition and Apple Trees [Third update]
This winter melon is too big and heavy. The green skin is covered with a light white frost color. The color is fresh, but it is quite awkward to hold.
In the end, Song Tan and Qiao Qiao put them into the pool and washed them one by one.
The seventh cousin and Wang Xiaoshun brought Qiao Qiao with them after they had finished their work. The three of them and three chopping boards started working together. First, they cut the winter melon in circles, then peeled it, cut it into one centimeter thick cubes, and finally cut it into 1 cm thick cubes. Cut the winter melon into strips one by one...
Not to mention, the inside of the winter melon is green and white, with a hazy transparency. It is piled up in small strips, which is really pretty.
The large and small pots that had just been emptied for beans in the kitchen were soon filled to the brim again.
On this side, the seventh cousin rummaged through boxes and cabinets to get enough food-grade quicklime. He directly found a large stainless steel bucket, and then poured cold water into it basin by basin, and collected a large bucket full of it.
Then he used his big spoon to stir it thoroughly. When the winter melon was cut into pots after pots, the lime water here was also allowed to stand.
He and Wang Xiaoshun didn't move. They just taught Qiao Qiao to take a ladle, scoop out the top layer of water, pour it into a basin and soak the winter melon strips inside.
Finally, I wrapped the bags one by one in plastic wrap and put them there - the whole bucket of lime water had reached the bottom, leaving only the white slaked lime at the bottom. This thing was basically useless, so I took it out and threw it away.
By the time everything was done, it was only six o'clock.
Cousin Seven thought about it for a while and found that Song Tan and Qiao Qiao were there, and the hard work was done. He didn't seem to be tired at all!
Not bad, not bad!
Although my judgment in choosing apprentices is not very good, the choice of a retirement place for myself is really good!
At this moment, he proudly raised his hands and said: "What can I sell for these few winter melons? Isn't it because there is plenty of land? I'll pick some back tomorrow."
“By the way, Tantan, go to town and buy me two more packs of quicklime. Be sure to remember to buy food!”
Even if the edges were not neatly cut, he did not waste them. He just raised his chin and told Wang Xiaoshun:
"Put away the rest and make stir-fried winter melon at night, and add two drops of oil."
As he spoke, he smiled smugly at Wang Xiaoshun: "Your master is good at choosing people, but he has no discernment in choosing dishes!"
"Look, you two have never seen such good ingredients in your lives! Let me tell you, this small oil is also freshly squeezed. The sesame seeds that are beaten at home only squeeze out a small bottle, and the rest is not Don’t give up...anyway, if you take a few drops when cooking at night, you will know what the fragrance is.”
Wang Xiaoshun had a smile on his face, but he thought in his heart: What’s so great! When Song Tan's family grows the amount of vegetables later, they can still use it when they return to the hotel!
Remembering the bustling crowd of guests, he could barely contain the smile on his face at the moment.
…
At this moment, Professor Song's masters and apprentices from Jiangbei Province, who were far away next door, looked at each other with their rice bowls in hand, with the same distress on their faces.
The host saw it and asked quickly: "What's wrong? Is the food not cooked well?"
“No, no!”
Professor Song quickly said: "It's not about the food, it's just that I feel sorry for these apple trees."
Actually, it’s just food... I’ve only been away for two days, so this is unimaginable. But you can’t say that one’s food is not as good as others, right?
The other party also breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
“I’m afraid you’ll blame me now...”
The other party said that he always felt a little guilty for no reason.
“What’s there to complain about?”
Professor Song laughed: "Congratulations first, your life will be better! When you get the money later, don't listen to others' instigation to gamble or invest."
The man laughed: "Since the news of the demolition came out, this household registration has been locked and frozen. I see a lot of strangers coming to the village!"
“There is also the card table, and the game is getting bigger and bigger... Our family is not good at it. We have just calmed down, but we don’t dare to do this.”
The person who spoke was a farmer from Jiangbei Province whom Professor Song had mentored before.
At that time, the other party returned to his hometown to start a business, but he was also desperate. With the introduction of Professor Song and others, he carefully bought a batch of three-year-old apple seedlings.
Grafting, pruning, fertilizing... After three years of hard work, it seems that the first fruit period is coming this year, click!
There is good news from heaven—
This area is going to be demolished! !
Including his 16 acres of apple orchard!
Just ask, which one brings in more money faster and more, farming or being a demolished household?
Don't think about it, it must be a demolition household. Not only will they be compensated for their old home, but they will also be compensated for everything else.
Let's talk about apple orchards. Not only are there compensations for land acquisition, but also for fruit trees - for an apple tree like this in its early fruiting stage, you can get 90 yuan in compensation!
This tree alone can cost another 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.
However, farming is really hard, and after their demolition, there are no suitable orchards nearby where he can move the fruit trees...
It just so happens that during this solar term, there are no buyers for fruit trees at all.
No, I have posted on WeChat Moments a long time ago, saying that I plan to give away fruit trees.
Just sent it out, Professor Song happened to see it. After asking about the demolition time, he specifically asked him not to give it away, but to keep it for him.
Now, Professor Song has come all the way to see the fruit trees, and the owner of the house is also filled with sadness:
“Professor Song, there’s not much else to say. When I returned to my hometown to start a business growing fungus, I almost lost my life, and you taught me step by step how to make money.”
"Later on, you inspected the weather and the soil for this fruit tree, and finally made the connections, and specially found good branches to arrange for grafting... I might not have been able to endure it for so many years, if you hadn't helped me support it. "
It's good now. It's about to have a good harvest, but my family has caught up with this good thing. He thought that for Professor Song, it was inevitable that his efforts would be in vain.
Now he promises: "Don't worry, if you want these fruit trees, I'll keep them all for you! I won't give any of them to anyone else!"
To be honest, he is impatient to give it to others.
With all the relatives and friends in this village, everyone wants to take advantage - but some people are greedy and take his free fruit trees and want to sell them elsewhere!
Or else he came over after hearing the news and asked him why he didn't dig out the fruit tree, otherwise they couldn't dig up such a big tree...
This is very irritating for this man: I send fruit trees with such good fruit to other places, and you ask me why I don’t help dig them?
What's going on? Can I arrange a car to take you home to plant?
The other party was still not happy, muttering all the way, saying that they were going to be demolished, and they still cared about this little money...
Anyway, since this incident was posted on WeChat Moments, I haven’t heard even a few good words, but I have accepted a lot of complaints.
To be honest, Professor Song was so relieved when he said yes!
Three updates and three updates! ! Good night!
A good start on the first day of August! I originally wanted to collect them into one chapter, so I haven't posted them yet. Later, when I released it, I thought a lot of people were using chapter cards and other things. I didn’t quite understand it. I was afraid that you would spend more money, so I separated.
In short, are you all satisfied?
