The temperature here in Spring City is still unstable. In this weather, it should be easier to catch fish in the afternoon.
Several people packed up the fish guards and rode on the motorcycles on the roadside. Lin Xiaomian, who was in the car, finally woke up and got out of the car: "Uncle."
"Hey." The uncle replied with a smile.
"Yunxiu is full, Yunfei is full..."
The two nodded and rode over: "I just woke up."
Lin Xiaomian looked at Ye Mo angrily: "Why don't you call me."
"You slept so soundly, I didn't want to call you." Ye Mo said with a smile.
Ye Mo returned to the car and started it... The car entered the village and stopped at Pingba outside the uncle's house.
After a while, the uncle, Yunxiu and the others came back.
Ye Mo opened the trunk: "We packed some cantaloupes."
"Bring two buckets and put them in." Lin Xiaomian said.
Yunxiu rode the car over: "So many."
"There are also second uncle, third uncle, younger uncle, and grandparents. I have to take some back to my parents and second uncle. I don't have much for you."
Each family has 5 cantaloupes and 8 reticulated melons, which is quite a lot.
"Let's have lunch here, I'll go back and kill the chickens," the uncle said.
Lin Xiaomian nodded vigorously and said 'hmm'.
Yunxiu and Yunfei's homes were next to each other. They went back and brought buckets to fill...
"These cantaloupes are so fragrant. Why don't you bring more cantaloupes?" Yunxiu said with a smile.
"I asked you to come over to eat, but if you don't go there yourself, they are all sold out. These are the melons Ye Mo specially reserved for planting..." Lin Xiaomian said: "I will call you when the next batch of cantaloupe is ripe, and come here early to pack it."
"You want it."
They took the cantaloupe back and went with their second uncle, younger uncle and grandparents...
I divided the cantaloupe and took my grandparents over.
…
We had lunch here and then went to Xiaomian's house.
"Mom, are you at home?" Lin Xiaomian called.
"at home."
"We are back." Lin Xiaomian said, "We had lunch at my uncle's house."
"Come back."
When I got home, Xiaomian's mother was alone at home.
"Mom." Ye Mo shouted.
"mom."
Xiaomian's mother nodded with a smile and looked at Ye Mo: "Are you done over there?"
"I have a few days to spare. The melon vines of the second crop of melons have come out, and I have to manage them..." Ye Mo said.
"Where's dad?"
"We're playing twenty-seventy at Wang Rong's house. Why don't we go over and have some fun?"
"Go." Lin Xiaomian nodded: "I'll bring you some cantaloupes and reticulated melons in the car."
Ye Mo helped take down the cantaloupe and reticulated melons and said, "I won't go play anymore. I've been driving all day and want to take a nap."
"You should rest at home." Xiaomian looked at Lin Xiaomian.
"I went over to play." Lin Xiaomian said with a smile, "I slept all morning."
Xiaomian's mother smiled and touched her head: "Let's go and play for a while."
Ye Mo went to the bedroom.
The bedroom was cleaned up, Ye Mo put on slippers, washed his feet, and went back to the bedroom...
I'm used to taking naps, and as soon as it's time, I'll fall asleep.
Ye Mo was lying on the bed, playing videos on his mobile phone, and fell asleep after a while.
When I woke up, it was after two o'clock in the afternoon, and I didn't want to get up. I took out my mobile phone and browsed the videos of Station B, watching fishing videos, watching videos of local life...
"Brother." Chen Chen turned on the phone.
"What are you doing?"
"We can't contract the barren hills over the gravel slope," Chen Chen said.
Ye Mo said 'hmm' and didn't find it strange.
"The gravel slope is a collective barren mountain." Chen Chen said: "I asked the village chief in the morning, and he said there was no problem, and then we went to the town... The mayor looked at the map and said that the gravel slope is a protected forestry zone and cannot be used to open up wasteland.
." Gravel slopes are ecological protection areas in hot dry valleys, mainly used for soil consolidation. In the past few years, many slopes were reclaimed, and the remaining natural shrub areas have been turned into protected areas in the past two years.
Hot and dry valleys refer to valley areas with high temperatures and low humidity. The region is rich in light and heat resources and has a hot climate with little rain. Therefore, water and soil are easily lost and the ecology is very fragile.
The native slopes of dry hot valleys have very sparse vegetation. If it is a large flat area, there will not be much problem in clearing it out. But if it is a large hillside area...
"Changzhu Village can also contract dozens of acres of wasteland. I just took a look and found that watermelons can be grown, but irrigation is a bit more troublesome."
"That's it, then forget it." Ye Mo said.
"Can we contract other land to grow watermelons?" Chen Chen felt a little itchy in his heart. Seeing how much money Ye Mo made, he was very envious.
"I really want to plant watermelons." Ye Mo smiled and said, "I want to plant watermelons. I have land in Gaoshanping. I will sort out some land for you and you can plant it yourself."
"You won't plant any more land in Gaoshanping?"
"Yes." Ye Mo said: "If someone orders a super large watermelon, I will plant some. If no one orders... let's talk about it. A lot of the durian seedlings planted last year died. I will look back and see how big I can get.
An area of open space...I will keep twenty or thirty acres for myself, and the rest will be planted by you."
Ye Mo was going to find a piece of flat land and transplant the durian seedlings on the flat land to replant the dead seedling pits.
Planting durian in Huacheng, even if there is a spiritual spring, is still a bit difficult.
Besides, when I came to Gaoshanping from my hometown, there were only half of the spiritual springs in the space. After that, most of the spiritual springs were used in coconut trees...
For durian trees, some were used when growing seedlings. After planting, only diluted spiritual springs were used for irrigation. The amount of spiritual springs in the irrigation water was very small.
No matter what kind of fruit tree it is, it is very normal for some to die after planting.
"Brother, let's find out...how much do you earn from one acre of watermelon?" Chen Chen asked.
"An acre of watermelon costs about 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. Cantaloupe is more profitable, but this year's cantaloupe is mostly due to luck. Planting next year, even in a greenhouse, may not be that good," Ye Mo said.
"If we plant in greenhouses, can we increase the planting density?"
Ye Mo said: "Watermelon?"
"Um."
"As for Kirin watermelons, 2,200 can be planted in one acre of greenhouse. It is best to plant one plant per melon. I have four melons per plant over there. To be honest, it is not advisable."
"How to manage it, you can tell us when the time comes."
"Then how to say it? It mainly relies on intuition." Ye Mo said: "It's only May, let's talk about it then."
"If we build a greenhouse here, can we grow watermelons in winter?"
Ye Mo hesitated for a moment: "It should be... not easy to grow. Are you talking about melons that mature in December?"
"Um."
"It's not easy to plant... During that time, the sunshine time is shorter and there are more cloudy days." Ye Mo said: "If you have a greenhouse, the safest way is to plant seedlings in December. If it is a small melon, it will bloom in February and it will bloom in March or March."
I can pick a bunch of melons.”
"Let's talk about these things later. We can't explain them clearly at the moment."
"Um...how much does it cost to invest in a greenhouse per acre?"
