After dinner, Cao Jianguo and his wife Wang Yuelan went back to their place.
When they walked back, they were still thinking about their son appearing on TV, but they didn't have much feeling about their son spending more than 4 million yuan to buy a factory.
"Old lady, when do you think Shujie can buy the equipment back? By then, the TV station should come to interview our son, right?"
Cao Jianguo is not sure.
But Wang Yuelan was very sure: "Of course it will be, who is my son!"
"Yes, Shujie has changed a lot in the past two years." Cao Jianguo also found it incredible.
…
Cao Shujie's home.
Cheng Xiaolin took Mengmeng upstairs to take a shower, while Cao Shujie was still sitting on the sofa downstairs studying preserved fruits.
This is one way to process fruits into preserved fruits.
Processing fruits into juice is another way.
There is also beef processed into beef jerky and beef cubes.
The added value it generates is much higher than selling beef or fruit directly.
Various thoughts popped up in Cao Shujie's mind, and he thought more and more.
But at the end of the day, let’s stick to the same thing for now.
Cao Shujie wanted to make preserved fruit first.
"Next we need to consider how to open up the market." Cao Shujie had an idea in his mind.
Preserved fruits are different from simple fruits. They can be stored for a long time and are easy to transport. He can even sell preserved fruits through online channels just like apples.
"It's not good if it's too sweet." Cao Shujie thought to himself: "We need to study the formula carefully to make it more nutritious and suitable for more people's tastes."
Before I knew it, it was already very late.
When Cheng Xiaolin saw that her husband had not come up, she came down from upstairs and called him to rest.
"Shujie, go to bed quickly. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow." Cheng Xiaolin advised him.
"Okay, I'll go up right now," Cao Shujie said.
…
On the morning of the second day, Mengmeng had breakfast at home and prepared to go to kindergarten.
Before she even went out, she yelled at her mother to fill her schoolbag with snacks.
Someone called her sister yesterday, which made Mengmeng extremely happy.
Some people also said that they would choose her to be the team leader of the class.
Even though she is young, she has a clear mind. She is so powerful in charge of a class!
She doesn't understand the theory yet, but she also knows that she must consolidate the staged victory results at this time.
Cheng Xiaolin didn't know what her daughter was thinking. It was just a little snack, so she took her daughter's schoolbag and stuffed it full.
The schoolbag stuffed with snacks was very heavy, and Mengmeng naturally couldn't carry it.
Cheng Xiaolin held her schoolbag in one hand and held Mengmeng's hand in the other. The mother and daughter walked towards the kindergarten together.
Seeing Principal Ding Dezhong and kindergarten teachers at the entrance of the kindergarten, Cheng Xiaolin waved to greet them.
Li Qiuling came over and asked her: "Linlin, I heard from my aunt that you and Shujie were on TV yesterday?"
Cheng Xiaolin thought of what her mother-in-law said about promoting them yesterday and couldn't help but laugh.
"It's not like being on TV. The main thing is that we bought the factory we rented before and signed a contract with the government yesterday. People from the city and county TV stations also came over."
"They said it wasn't going to be on TV. Everyone from the TV station was there, so they must have videotaped it for you." Li Qiuling was quite envious.
There is no denying this. Cheng Xiaolin handed the schoolbag in her hand to Li Qiuling, and then passed her cute hand over.
Li Qiuling held her schoolbag and said with a smile: "The schoolbag won't be full of snacks again, right?"
"Haha, Sister Qiuling is right, Mengmeng must be filled up." Cheng Xiaolin said.
"Mengmeng, come with me." Li Qiuling pulled Mengmeng, who could not wait, towards the classroom.
"Teacher, I have brought you delicious food again." Mengmeng said secretly.
Li Qiuling found it very interesting when she saw the little guy like this: "Mengmeng, tell the teacher what you got."
"My dad said it's called preserved fruit. My dad said it's too sweet and not delicious, but I think it's delicious. I brought it to you and you can try it later." Mengmeng said a series of words with a little pride on her face.
That's pretty cool to say.
"Mengmeng, don't bring anything to the teacher anymore, remember?" Li Qiuling said?
Mengmeng couldn't understand, she tilted her little head and asked: "Why?"
"The teacher doesn't want to eat," Li Qiuling said.
Mengmeng thought that Li Qiuling didn't eat preserved fruits, so her little eyes rolled, and then she said, "Then I'll get you something else. We still have a lot of delicious food at home."
Li Qiuling never expected that Mengmeng would consider it this way, and she was a little bit dumbfounded.
I stopped trying to persuade her, thinking of guiding her slowly in the future.
However, she also noticed that compared to other children in the class, this child had a particularly high emotional intelligence inadvertently.
"Sister Linlin is an excellent teacher. It's a pity that she doesn't come to the kindergarten." Li Qiuling sighed.
When Cheng Xiaolin returned home, her husband was dressed for work and was preparing to go to the mountains.
"Shujie, you think it would be great if we got some uniform work clothes." Cheng Xiaolin mentioned it accidentally.
Cao Shujie was heartbroken when he heard this. He said, "This is a good idea. Later I will go to the town to find a clothing factory to make some."
"Make it together with the one from the factory."
"Well, there's no rush now."
Cao Shujie carried a shovel and rode an electric tricycle to the mountain.
Cao Shuchao didn't expect that Cao Shujie would come over today. When he saw him, Cao Shuchao smiled and asked him: "Shujie, did you finish signing yesterday?"
"Yes, after the signing is completed, if the fruits we produce in the future are not sold, they can be taken to the factory for further processing." Cao Shujie told Cao Shuchao.
With this factory, they don't have to worry about uncontrollable factors such as unsaleable fruit or spoilage.
"That's great!" Cao Shuchao was happy from the bottom of his heart.
It is exactly the second anniversary since Cao Shujie started building this orchard in March 2011, and he has taken every step steadily.
Cao Shuchao was also happy with Cao Shujie's achievements.
"Shujie, find a time to sit down and have a drink together." Cao Shuchao said proactively: "You have been very busy recently, and we don't have time to get together."
Cao Shujie agreed wholeheartedly and said, "Otherwise, let's do it tonight. I also want to tell you something else."
"What happened?" Cao Shuchao was a little confused.
But Cao Shujie did not rush to tell him, but said that he would tell them after everyone arrived.
Cao Shujie walked towards the orchard carrying the shovel.
At this time, the 50 acres of yellow-heart, red-heart kiwi and apple trees to the east have bloomed as scheduled, and the fruit trees in the garden are full of fragrance, which also means that they will bear fruit this year. Cao Shujie only feels physically and mentally comfortable smelling the fragrance of the flowers.
The scent of flowers also attracts countless bees and butterflies dancing in the orchard.
Seeing this scene, Cao Shujie thought about calling his wife and asking her to take time to come over and take pictures of this scene.
In addition to them, there were also people from the village coming to play in the orchard.
When everyone saw Cao Shujie, they all came over to say hello to him.
"Shujie, I've been very busy recently. I haven't seen you for a long time."
"Aunt, you guys come over and play."
"Come and see the deer, Shujie, the deer you raised is so big."
Cao Shujie said a few words to the other party and then ran deeper.
When I came to the strawberry garden, I saw that many strawberries had produced green and white fruits, and some strawberry fruits had changed from white to green.
Cao Shujie thought it was really good when he saw it.
When the garden opens at the end of the month, all this batch of strawberries will be sold, and there will be another huge amount of income.
Next year, he wants to find a place to plant it on a large scale and supply it to factories.
As a result, the investment cost is also high.
However, in the long run, open-air planting is uneconomical, so Cao Shujie also considered planting in greenhouses elsewhere.
Two different methods exist at the same time to make products of different grades.
In the mountainous area in front of us, all the available space has been used, and there is not much space left that can be used effectively.
Instead, it would be very good to develop all the remaining mountains and use them as tourist attractions.
20 sika deer are running happily in the deer park.
When they saw Cao Shujie coming, they ran over and greeted him through the wire fence.
At this time, antlers have begun to grow on the deer's head.
Cao Shujie thought that he could cut the first crop in June, which would be another way to make money.
"Sure enough, the richer you are, the richer you are! It's absolutely true!" Cao Shujie said to himself.
The investments he made later, including breeding sika deer and raising nearly 600 cattle, all required a lot of capital.
If you don't have money, ordinary people like Caojiazhuang can't make much money throughout the year if they raise two, three, or four or five cows at home.
Time passes unconsciously.
Cao Shujie didn't go anywhere today. He just stayed in the orchard until the afternoon.
Cao Shujie called Cao Jianjun and asked him to bring the two people over there to have a meal together in the evening.
She also told her wife that she would go back after having dinner with the people in the orchard in the evening.
"Shujie, aren't you busy today?" Cao Jianjun saw Cao Shujie and came directly over to give him a gentle slap on the back.
"Uncle Jun, I just finished my work. You don't even know that I have been busy during this period of time." Cao Shujie said.
"Let's go to the farm restaurant to have some food." Cao Shujie said to them.
Cao Shuchao also asked him: "Are there no people left here?"
"If we don't keep them anymore, besides cattle and deer, what else can we steal?"
"Besides, we have installed so many surveillance cameras here, how can I lose my things in Caojiazhuang?" Cao Shujie waved his hand and led the seven of them down the mountain road to the north and walked together towards the farm restaurant.
The distance is not far, and we will be there in a short time.
After coming over, Cao Shujie directly asked this person to serve hard food.
I didn’t even order a few vegetables.
"Let's have a good drink tonight until we're full." Cao Shujie said.
Hearing what he said, Cao Shuchao and Cao Jianjun shouted that they would drink Cao Shujie down tonight.
Zhuang Xuesong and Zhu Shengliang also shouted.
On the contrary, the three of them, Sun Baocheng, Yang Zhenshan and Zhang Bin, who came last, always felt that they couldn't let go when facing their boss.
To be honest, they were quite envious of Cao Shujie and the other four's free and easy attitude when facing their boss.
"Uncle Jun, Brother Chao, Master Zhu, Master Zhuang, I have been busy these days and have no time to sit down and have a good meal with you."
"Master Sun, you three too, feel free to do it, we are all a family." Cao Shujie waved his hand and said.
