Chapter five hundred and thirty-eight the second vegetable planting

When Wu Fei and Kang Liu were preparing for the future, some people in the village who had been talking about it all the time, finally started growing vegetables.

The first one was Wu Qingyou. After last time, he asked Wu Fei's tractor to plow the land next to the highway, he dug up several pieces of wasteland not far from the village.

These lands were used to grow vegetables and plant rice, but they had not been cultivated for many years and had long been deserted. The land was covered with weeds and various small shrubs, many of which were more than one person tall.

Because it is not close to the road, Wu Fei's tractor cannot be used, so he can only use a small hand-held field plower.

It took several days to clean up the messy weeds and shrubs in the field.

However, when a few people carried a plowing machine worth about 200 kilograms into the ground, they found that this plowing machine had no effect on land reclamation.

The hand-held field plower can only dig to a depth of more than ten centimeters underground, and when it encounters the roots of those shrubs, it cannot be gnawed at all.

It took me more than an hour to plow less than a piece of the land. Finally, I saw that the plowing machine was really useless, so I simply didn’t use the plowing machine and picked up the hoe to dig it out.

Fortunately, after the Chinese New Year, no one in Wu Qingyou's family went out and waited for work at home to start work, and their son and daughter-in-law were at home.

So when Wu Fei's family was busy growing vegetables in the field, Wu Qingyou's family was not idle either. In addition, the land that was turned over with a tractor, almost five acres of land were reclaimed.

Except for Wu Qingyou and his wife, they plan to stay at home to grow vegetables in the future, but their son and daughter-in-law still plan to go out to work, so they let Wu Qingyou grow them at home first. If they really make money, they will come back to grow vegetables together.

Everyone knows the truth that you cannot put all eggs in one basket. Although Wu Fei’s family is now buying vegetables, everyone is jealous, but in the long run, there are still not many people who are optimistic about it.

Now Wu Fei’s family sells a lot of vegetables every day, but the expenses are also very high. There are only 10 or 20 people invited to do things every day, and sometimes more than 30 people are.

When I was at the busiest time, I had to plant vegetables, plant trees, pick strawberries and harvest vegetables. In addition, those who came to help temporarily, all the people who could call me in the village called me over.

The money spent on hiring people to do things, during the busiest period, the days when the expenses exceed 5,000 yuan a day were spent on several days, and most of the time the expenses were around 2,000 yuan.

From February to May, in less than four months, Wu Feikai's wages exceeded 200,000 yuan.

Fortunately, at the beginning, there were strawberries on top, and strawberries could be sold for several thousand yuan every day. When a wholesaler came, they could be sold for 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a day. Later, after the price of strawberries dropped, the vegetables in the fields gradually grew.

So I spend a lot of money on lunch every day, but I earn more money. In a few months, I have earned hundreds of thousands of dollars.

However, outsiders don’t know the money they earn except their family members know about it, so they can only guess it themselves.

When Wu Qingyou's house started growing vegetables, Zhou Guolong's house in the village was also discussing whether to grow vegetables.

There was a table full of dishes on the table, and Zhou Guolong and his family were all present.

Zhou Guolong was several years younger than Wu Bang, and he was only in his forties now. However, Zhou Guolong gave birth to three children at that time, the eldest was a woman, and his second child was a pair of twins. He gave birth to two boys at once, and is now in college.

However, the school has not started, so it has been staying at home and has not gone out. It is waiting for the meal to start.

Whether in rural areas or cities, most people have the habit of discussing things at the dinner table, and Zhou Guolong and his family are no exception.

Zhou Guolong said to his wife: "Yueying, you have often gone to Wu Bang's house to help during this period. How about we planted a few acres of vegetables?"

During this period, Zhou Guolong and his wife Tian Yueying were also called by Wu Bang to help several times, but Tian Yueying went there more times than Zhou Guolong.

In the early years, the family had to support their two sons in college. Zhou Guolong and Tian Yueying had been working outside, but now their two sons are about to graduate from college, and they rarely ask their parents for money when they were in their sophomore year. They earned all their tuition and living expenses by themselves, so they couldn't say they were under great pressure.

Besides, the salary of several thousand yuan a month that they earned by working, is not enough to support their two sons to buy a house after graduation.

If you want to buy a house, you can only rely on them to work hard in the future. This is what comes from rural areas. Parents generally have limited abilities, and it is easy to support a few people. If you train a college student, the pressure will be great at home. For example, Zhou Guolong's family will be supported by two college students at once. You can imagine the pressure.

Fortunately, the two brothers are competing and understand their parents' difficulties. Not only did they earn their own tuition and living expenses early, they also indicated that they would not pay for their parents to buy a house and get married in the future.

In addition, the job outside is not so easy to do now, and the main reason is that the two of them have no skills. The monthly salary is less than 10,000 yuan. Apart from the expenses, it would be nice to have six or seven thousand yuan left.

Now that his daughter is married, and his two sons don’t have to bear it themselves, Zhou Guolong has become more interested in not going out to work.

In addition, during this period, seeing that Wu Fei's family sold vegetables well and Wu Qingyou's family also started growing vegetables, Zhou Guolong became interested in growing vegetables.

Zhou Guolong’s family is located at a point below the reservoir. When adjusting the land, the family’s land was almost replaced. It was close to the stream flowing out of the reservoir, and it was also very convenient to use water.

The highways in the village are almost built along the stream. From the highway to the land of your home, there is only a stream.

In terms of transportation conditions, it is much more convenient than the places at Wu Qingyou's home. And just find a place with a smaller span on the stream and put a few prefabricated boards on it, and you can drive the tractor over.

When many people in the village came to Wu Fei's house to inquire about growing vegetables, Wu Bang agreed to everyone that if someone used the tractor, he could just give some oil and wages to help cultivate the land. Or he could also come to the house to help with the tractor.

Because the people who came to inquire were all people who had done things for Wu Fei's family, many of them simply kept asking Wu Bang and Wu Fei for these things while doing things.

In fact, growing vegetables is a basic skill for Wu Bang's generation. What everyone mainly asks about is the sales of vegetables after planting them, and whether they can rent a tractor at that time.
