A single plant of 3000 plants can be planted on a mu of land, and a greenhouse with a area of ​​5 mu requires 40,000 strawberry seedlings. That is 12,000 yuan.

In fact, the cost is still very large. A greenhouse with acre of land is 12,000 yuan, plus 2,400 yuan for strawberry seedlings. The cost of these two is 14,000 yuan.

The cost of strawberries, greenhouses and seedlings with an area of ​​five acres is more than 70,000 yuan. These do not include the fertilizer, labor, and later picking and selling costs for planting strawberries.

Speaking of which, it is really not easy to make some money in rural areas. Now the prices of various industrial products used for agricultural production are getting higher and higher, and the prices of fertilizers and pesticides are constantly rising.

Not to mention the increasing labor capital, so many times it is really not profitable to farm. Maybe after a busy year, you can make more money than to make a lot of money at the construction site to move bricks.

Unless you expand the scale of planting and form large-scale operations, in fact, farming itself is not profitable. However, after the scale increases, you can apply for subsidies. The larger the scale, the higher the standard of subsidy.

Nowadays, many people who grow grain on a large scale will be able to maintain their capital as long as the grain itself can be guaranteed. The place where money is made is the state's subsidy.

For example, the purchase price of rice this year is 120 to 30 yuan, and a good acre of land can produce about 1,500 kilograms. It seems a lot, but after removing seed fertilizer, there is not much left.

If it were a large-scale planting, which could be operated by mechanical operations and achieved mechanization, the workers on each acre of land would have been much smaller, and they would have made a little profit.

For example, Wu Fei and others, growing rice is a loss-making business. Agrarian land, transplanting rice, fertilizing, and harvesting almost all require manual operation. It is not that you don’t want to use mechanical operations, but it is not allowed in reality.

The mountainous terrain restricts the implementation of mechanization, and it is also impossible to form a scale first. Each household has only a little land, and on average, one person has more than one acre of paddy fields, which is not easy to get through.

Therefore, with the rise in wages outside in recent years, the phenomenon of abandoning farmland at home has become increasingly common.

For example, this year, the families who grow rice in the village can count with one hand. The main ones are those who are idle and diligent, so they can plant some of them and eat at home.

Speaking of which, many times, everyone has a kind of idea that no matter what they are, they are good at home.

From the baby, the vegetables grown by themselves, the pigs raised by themselves, anyway, the food they eat and use, as long as they are made at home, they are all good. Naturally, they are better than the ones they buy.

But there are exceptions, that is, your wife is better for someone else. Of course, this is a joke.

Like Wu Fei's family, my father will plant acre of rice next year, including glutinous rice from two or three parts of the field.

After winter comes, I will use my own glutinous rice to steam a few tanks of rice wine. When it is small, it will have two or three cylinders, and when it is large, it will have four or five cylinders.

After my father was unable to drink in recent years, the rice wine he steamed every year has decreased, and usually only has three tanks a year. In recent years, Wu Fei rarely comes back. The rice wine at home has not been undone for three or four years ago, and is hidden in the cellar where sweet potatoes were collected.

When Wu Fei just came back, he wanted to go to the cellar to pull a jar of old wine to drink. However, he was busy with family affairs, so he was too lazy to go to the cellar to get it. A jar of wine is at least fifty pounds, and it takes two people to go down to carry it up.

The wine jars used to make wine at home were still in the 1990s. My father picked up the kilns when he was helping others with the kiln factory in the town. He took back ten wine jars, all of which were of good quality. Now there are only six bins left, and the others are broken.

Later, under the impact of foreign porcelain, the kiln factory in the town was operating for a few years and could not continue to operate it again and finally closed down.

Speaking of which, the kiln factory in the town was built when the Chairman's porcelain was fired in the 1970s and 1980s. Qingfeng County is rich in soil and sticky, and produces clay, which is particularly suitable for making porcelain.

When the Chairman's porcelain was fired, the town was called a commune at that time, and a batch of clay was sent to inspect. Of course, it was not selected. However, the commune also took the opportunity to open a kiln factory, and the porcelain fired was consumed in the surrounding areas.

Now that I pass by there, I can see the already dilapidated kiln. I don’t know if the old kilns will shine again and heat up again.

Maybe one day someone will pack the kiln factory down like Wu Fei and Chashan, and reopen the kiln to make porcelain.

Now in the eyes of the villagers, Wu Fei is a typical example of losing money and gaining publicity. Few people believe that Wu Fei can spend money on planting orchards.

Especially in the past few days, I have invited everyone to help with things, but I have listened to everyone's persuasion. The problem is that those who say those words are all good in their hearts, and they are all from Wu Fei's father's generation, and some are even older than Wu Fei's father's generation. Wu Fei can only listen to it. Sometimes after listening to people, they have to thank them for their kindness.

Fortunately, everyone says that Wu Fei is not losing money after contracting the fish pond. However, seeing that he has hired someone to help these days, and his salary is more than 1,000 yuan a day, everyone is asking how much money Wu Fei has made outside. Otherwise, such a life won’t last long.

If I knew that Wu Fei had spent more than 100,000 yuan to build this ten-acre greenhouse now, it was just a shelf, and I wonder how many kind-hearted persuasion would be received.

However, Wu Fei’s plan now is not to ask for much money for the time being. The strawberries and watermelon in the early stage can only increase their income a little. The main reason is to wait until the orchard has formed a scale and most of the fruit trees have been produced, it is time for them to really make money.

Besides, the fish ponds in the orchard can also increase Wu Fei's income a lot. Now Wu Fei has a preliminary plan. In addition to raising fish, Wu Fei also plans to raise turtles, eels, loaches, and grass shrimps in the orchard fish ponds, and may also have to raise frogs in the future.

Anyway, such a large orchard has about ten fish ponds of all sizes, which is enough for Wu Fei to build them with great effort.

The most important task at the moment is to plant strawberries in the short period of time before the cooling down.

Finally, when he left the seedling farm, Wu Fei bought 40,000 strawberry seedlings, 8,000 Zhangji strawberries, 8,000 red-eye strawberries, and 24,000 flannel strawberries. A total of 12,000 yuan was spent by Wu Fei.

However, Wu Fei only paid the final payment of 2,000 yuan, and the remaining 10,000 yuan was not settled until the old Miao sent all the strawberry seedlings to Wu Fei's orchard.
