Chapter 719 719. Apple tree
Of course, the dog days of summer are definitely not a good time to transplant apple trees, and the demolition has just gone through the stage of freezing household registration and preliminary price negotiation.
Now, the other party was drinking wine with Professor Song and promised: "Don't worry! The demolition won't be able to reach my house for a while. When the dog days are over and the temperature difference increases, I can arrange for fruit trees whenever you need them!"
“That’s right…”
His fruit tree is now bearing fruit. Not only does it have to be pruned this year, but because the fruit tree has grown to a large size, it will cost a lot of money to transport it.
"fine."
Professor Song has sincerely planned carefully for Song Tan - the fruit tree was transplanted this autumn, and after a winter of maintenance, it will bloom and bear fruit in May next spring. If it is properly maintained, it can seamlessly enter the full fruit period.
The economic benefits are far beyond today’s tolls.
What’s more, when transporting and pruning, they will also rearrange the branches one by one...
“I’ll have to trouble you when the time comes!”
Professor Song sighed: "I will send my students to guide the workers. We will pay for this part of the expenses. We just have to trouble you to find a few people to do the work. After all, we are not familiar with this area..."
“Don’t worry!” The other party wanted to slap his chest loudly, and his eyes were full of longing at this moment:
“Leave it all to me! I’ll make sure it’s done for you!”
Professor Song then smiled and said, "I will definitely feel relieved if I leave it to you."
"I have met many fruit farmers over the years, and the people who take care of your orchard are so attentive! They are also very attentive. If it hadn't been for this demolition, your life would still be prosperous in three years at the latest."
The other party laughed:
"It doesn't work now. I don't have the same energy as when I was young. After I get the demolition money, I will first make arrangements for my children, wife, school district, housing, medical care, etc. If I still have some left on hand, I will rent an orchard again. ”
“This time I have past experience, so I will definitely be able to do it more smoothly. I’ll have to trouble you for more guidance when the time comes…”
It is rare to find fruit trees that are ready for fruiting at no cost. Even though Professor Song has an amazing network of people, he only happened to come across this place now.
After confirming that there was no problem here, the four masters and apprentices hurried back - they obviously didn't stay at Song Tan's house for two months, so why can't they leave now?
By the time they returned home after running all night, the morning light was just emerging, and the seventh cousin had just opened the kitchen door and was calling Qiao Qiao, Wang Xiaoshun and the others to take out all the winter melon strips soaked in lime water last night.
This is another big project.
A few people were humming and carrying pots of winter melon strips, squatting by the pool and washing them over and over with Aunt Lianhua.
Soaking in food-grade quicklime water can make the winter melon strips crispier. However, they should not be too violent when washing, so as not to break and affect the appearance.
A group of people squatted around the pool and worked all morning, then rinsed them all two or three times.
When Professor Song entered the yard, the brothers were working together to pour the winter melon strips back into the basin and soak them in water again—
That’s right, this food is not expensive to eat, it’s sweet, and it’s simple to make, but it all depends on patience, and one process can easily take more than ten hours!
Zhang Yanping and Wu Lei regretted it so much!
We agreed not to work this morning, so why did we get caught while eating?
"What are you doing?" Yan Ran came over and took a look curiously: "Are you going to make something delicious again?"
Qiao Qiao nodded: "Sister Yan Ran, we are going to make winter melon candy. Do you like it?"
Who doesn’t have two of these things in their childhood memories?
Yan Ran immediately took two steps back: "Back off! Back off! Back off! I won't eat it! This is too sweet!"
Tang Xiaodong was quite interested: "Our classmates said that the mung bean and lily sweet soup made with this should be quite delicious."
Winter Melon Sugar Soup…
The seventh cousin became a little silent.
Coming from a simple mountain village like him, he did not expect that there are all kinds of strange ways to eat in this world, and everyone dares to try anything.
Qi Lin, on the other hand, was a little embarrassed: "I like it. In the mountainous area over there, sugar was very precious when I was a child... When it's ready, if there are more, can I buy some and send them to my grandpa?"
“There must be many.”
The seventh cousin raised his chin and asked him to look at the large pots in front of him: "There are so many piles, how many do you think the family can eat?"
Here, Professor Song no longer cares about small talk.
He is old and has poor patience. He is already familiar with serving bowls of porridge and pickles from the kitchen. While eating, he was slurping and snoring without any trace of image. At the same time, he did not forget to say to Song Tan:
“Song Tan, you will spend a lot of money on the mountain next. I will make a list for you later, and buy what you need to buy!”
"If you can't find a suitable channel, ask Yanran and the others... they are all familiar with it."
He was really greedy. He quickly finished half the bowl of porridge and went back to the kitchen to get a pumpkin bun:
“As we discussed before, aren’t there four particularly large fermentation tanks in the plan on the mountain? Tell them to work harder and build the house slowly, but they must also build the tanks first.”
“It will be needed soon.”
Pumpkin buns were stuffed in his mouth and he spoke vaguely. Song Tan was at a loss for a moment, and then he remembered that Professor Song had indeed suggested it. only…
She originally thought that the biggest expense would be seedlings and the like, but now it sounds like there are other things?
Just listen to Professor Song say: "Originally, Xiaoyan and I thought that the conditions on your mountain are good and you have your own cultivation method. We didn't want to do something so complicated - it's too labor-intensive. Now you have less labor. It's really difficult." It’s inappropriate.”
“But didn’t the mcn agency mention this that day? It’s true that we neglected the importance of official identification.”
“In this case, for quality like ours, it must be rated as the best in the world! The requirements for green and ecological selection will be more stringent than ordinary ones.”
Song Tan was dumbfounded.
World class…
Although she knows that her stuff is the best in the world,...
“You are too brave to think about it!”
World-class... wouldn’t the process be extremely cumbersome? Just for a green ecology, someone has to come to inspect the planting environment.
It's a shame that the selection will be held next year...otherwise, their family would never be able to get through with their rough and stocking appearance.
Professor Song smiled confidently: "You... don't underestimate our current strength. Do the preparations first and do the rest step by step. Don't worry!"
He said firmly: "When the time comes, you will really need a lot of people working on this mountain, and the initial investment will be indispensable."
All big cakes will make people calm down instantly once the budget is mentioned - the same is true for Song Tan.
She thought for a while and asked cautiously: "Will the cost be high?"
“No.” Professor Song’s gentle look easily reassured her:
“The mountains and hills here make it impossible to do large-scale scientific and technological agriculture, so artificial agriculture is still the main method.”
“In this case, your biggest expense is the labor cost, and other costs may not be within your budget. But I have roughly calculated that you can afford it.”
“If that’s the case, then do it.”
Song Tan did not hesitate.
Apart from anything else, according to Professor Song's plan, no matter how prosperous she is in the future, no one will doubt how she came up with such a unique taste of crops. This is more reliable than the rumors of tens of millions of loans that have now brought the situation under control, and can be solved once and for all.
Policy support, the caution and attention of the folks, and the legitimate production of all kinds of good things...
These are the advantages that can be brought about after the goal is achieved.
Song Tan promised: "If you have any ideas, just tell me. I will do my best if I can do it, and if I can't..."
She looked around, then leaned over like a thief and whispered: "If you can't do it, just hide the loan from my parents!"
Yan Ran pursed her lips and said, "Song Tan, have you never understood the teacher carefully?"
In addition to being one of the rule makers in relevant industries, Professor Song is also a national key project-
The founder of [Houji Seed Laboratory].
“Don’t worry, although the initial investment will be a little more, what you can bring to you in the future is definitely more than this.”
As soon as he said this, Zhang Yanping, who was happy to see Tan Tan heartbroken but had to spend money, all the winter melon strips in his hand instantly fell back into the basin.
He looked at Song Tan blankly: "...Does this mean that after many years of graduation, I have to participate in a national project again? If you really want to say it, this is not as promising as me taking the public examination!"
Although but...how can this not be considered participation? Sweeping the floor is also a contribution, right?
And her cousin’s place is more than just a simple family farm!
Yan Ran laughed: "Then if you think about it more, you can still be beautiful for a while longer."
He then turned to Song Tan and said:
“The exchange meeting I discussed with you in the Imperial Capital in winter and spring is also very authoritative within the industry.”
After a pause, she added: “On a global level.”
Zhang Yanping was ecstatic!
Xin Jun, on the other hand, was thoughtful: "If you really want to say that, Tantan, can you ask Auntie to help find out if there is any homestead in our village that can be exchanged for me?"
Zhang Yanping gasped!
Good guy! You didn't settle accounts this summer when you exercised for nothing. How come you are calculating money faster than me? ! Did you find the opportunity to make a fortune so quickly?
He wants it too!
Song Tan stood there, digesting the sudden news for a long time, and at this moment he said in surprise:
“I really don’t pay much attention to this industry…”
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Two days ago, Lao Xu on the mountain asked me if I should build a few more factories or dormitories on the flat land where a small wellhead was opened at the top of the mountain? I was still wondering whether it would be used for a while. Go ahead and reject them all!”
Looking at it now, what are you waiting for? !
Without saying a word, she took out her mobile phone: "Manager Xu? Have you eaten? Please come over and let's discuss something."
Professor Song chuckled and said, "Don't be scared by Xiaoyan. The name sounds weird, but in fact all the work he does is related to the fields."
“The main purpose of our stay is to take advantage of your family’s unique advantages to spread our business card around the world.”
“If we can improve more advantageous seeds by then, we will be able to take more initiative in the international market, and accordingly we will be able to obtain more seeds.”
“As for how this family farm develops and what its focus is, you still have the final say.”
“Even if you want to expand the scale next year and take over more wasteland and mountains, it will not have any impact on our cooperation.”
The seed laboratory does not mean that they have to build a building in their field with a tight seal. What he has to do is to preserve more and more stable inheritance.
As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun: "You two young men are quite flexible, but young people still have greater advantages in education and medical care in the city. There is no need to insist on whether the homestead can be replaced. ”
“As Tantan said, there are so many factories and dormitories in her house on the mountain, how can I miss your room?”
Zhang Yanping originally wanted to say that it was different. He must be more at ease at home.
But then I thought about it - I can live as I please, but if I walk from my own home to come here to eat, my face will probably double again!
He and Xin Jun looked at each other and stopped instantly.
…
At this point, the person in charge, Lao Xu, had already hurriedly came down from the mountain and was thinking about having breakfast when he heard Song Tan speak out his idea again.
Lao Xu perked up: "Are you serious?! The other top of the mountain covers an area of more than 2,000 square meters!"
What’s more, there is a wellhead at the top of the mountain, with water flowing out continuously, and the supporting facilities for living will be simpler.
If they come on, they won’t have to worry about it in the second half of this year.
But Lao Xu is a kind person, and he is also afraid that a series of house constructions will wipe out Song Tan's family assets and affect his balance.
At this moment he sincerely suggested:
“I think we shouldn’t touch the top of the mountain yet. Build it up step by step according to the original needs, and then renovate the old man’s old house.”
“When these two tasks are over, I guess you can start selling some products.
“If you have enough money, the house on the top of the mountain can be built better.”
At the very least, according to Song Tan, there will always be some people who need to live in a more decent place. It certainly can't be like the factory area here, where several people share a dormitory, right?
Cover slowly and completely in time.
Song Tan counted the money on hand and finally let out a sigh of relief.
God knows, she really had such an idea when she told Professor Song about a bank loan just now!
But everyone knows that at the current price of her farm, she cannot get a loan of tens of millions!
I’m worried!
This morning was so thrilling! I feel like my career will be more high-end in the future.
How are they living in the countryside? It is clearly the concealment and dedication that a key project deserves!
"By the way," only then did Song Tan think of another thing: "Professor Song, is there anything else that needs to be arranged? Party Secretary Xiao Zhu said that the city has already approved the road construction. At the latest half a month, we will definitely be here Can start work."
“When the time comes, vehicles will have to go around Shangtang Village next door, which will be more troublesome than now.” Road construction?
Professor Song was pleasantly surprised and said, "The efficiency of your municipal administration is very high!"
He was extremely satisfied: "Wait a minute, we will compile a list of materials after dinner. Anyway, let's get the things ready first."
They are going to have a big fight too!
Although it is late, I still wrote it.
Houji Seed Laboratory, I made some reference to Shennong Seed Laboratory...but I can't say too much (I can't say too much at my level, I just need to understand it).
Recently I’m learning natural farming methods, and it’s really, really interesting! ! And it fits my idea very well. Professor Song will use it later.
Ah, I forgot to mention, this chapter is two in one [emphasis added].
Good night!
Additional note: I almost didn’t finish a big chapter on August 3rd, so I finished it on the morning of the 4th. I won’t issue another leave note.
