A large bucket of snails was divided into two pots, one spicy and one spicy.
Two pots of snails and a whole box of beer were used.
Next came the crayfish. I heated up the fire in a large pot with two stoves and fried them in two pots respectively, which were also spicy and spicy.
A large bucket of white fungus was still simmering over a slow fire, and someone was stirring it with a long shovel.
The white fungus has been removed from the rock sugar, red dates and wolfberry.
The bacon and sausages have already been cooked, and Master Li and the others are cutting the meat. The broth is used to cook vegetables...
The crayfish is ready, let’s start frying the native chicken...
Three native chickens, a large pot, stir-fry the taro until fragrant, and another large pot is full.
It's past seven o'clock.
The men were already sitting down, eating snails and drinking beer.
"Mr. Ye, tomorrow's work is to build a greenhouse, right?" Master Liu asked.
"Building a greenhouse, plowing the soil deeply...and building a melon rack inside the greenhouse," Ye Mo said.
"Mr. Ye..." Zhou Yue shouted, looking like he was hesitating to speak.
"What's wrong?"
"Do we still need people?" Zhou Yue asked: "My brother and his sister-in-law have nothing to do at home. I want to call them over to work together."
Ye Mo thought for a while and said: "Okay, let's call them over. There is a one-month observation period. If you do well, you can stay. If you don't do well, just leave."
"Thank you, Mr. Ye. Don't worry, they do a great job." Zhou Yue said.
"Mr. Ye, if you still need workers, tell me, I can also introduce them here." Master Zhang said.
"The current manpower should be enough. If we still need more people, let's talk about it." Ye Mo said.
He doesn't want to recruit too many people at once.
At the beginning of the year, Ye Mo's team of about twenty people managed nearly two hundred acres of melon fields.
Now, including Brother Zhou Yue and his wife, Aunt Xiaomian, and Wang Rong's mother are also here... there are already twenty workers.
"Come, come, have a drink." Lin Shan greeted.
Ye Mo's father came over with another box of beer: "Ready."
Lin Xiaomian, Ye Ran, Wang Yue, Zhang Xia... they sat at a table with a few little ones, drinking beer and eating crayfish and snails.
I came over at 7:30, and the local chicken had just been cooked, when Ye Mo’s phone rang: “Hello, Boss Li…”
"Are you in Gaoshanping?"
"exist."
"Do you sell the mangoes over there?" Li Xuebin asked.
"Sell it," Ye Mo said.
"I can estimate the approximate output. I am distributing mango baskets here and will send you some."
"The output should be about 20,000 kilograms. We are having a dinner here, come over and have some wine," Ye Mo said.
"Okay. I'm under Gaoshanping..."
"Then come here quickly. We've all started eating."
"Okay, right away." Li Xuebin said with a smile.
Ye Mo and the others went over to set a table of dishes alone. After a while... Li Xuebin drove in. There was also a large truck coming with him. Ye Mo took him out and unloaded the mango basket from the large truck and threw it next to the mango orchard.
.
Li Xuebin went into the mango orchard and took a look.
The mangoes on Ye Mo's side were not managed and only pruned once...
"Your mangoes are too bad." Li Xuebin said.
"There are too many things to manage." Ye Mo said, "Let's go have a drink."
"Let's go." Li Xuebin said, "In this case, the price of these mangoes is the same as the mangoes at the foot of the mountain, 3 yuan."
"Okay." Ye Mo chuckled.
Ye Mo knew that his mangoes could not be sold at this price, it was too bad.
"Shanxia Mango is 3 yuan, the same price?" Ye Mo said.
"There are a few particularly bad ones, so I don't want them. I only accept managed mangoes, which cost 3.2 yuan per catty." Li Xuebin said: "To be honest, the Kate mangos at the foot of the mountain don't mature at a good time, neither early nor late."
"3 yuan per catty, this price is not bad. Compared with the price the year before last...the price has increased by more than twice."
Niu Youde opened a bottle of beer and handed it to Li Xuebin: "I heard that mangoes in the valley sell for 8 yuan per catty. Is it true?" Niu Youde asked curiously.
"Really. But mangoes that cost 8 yuan per catty only account for about one-fifth of the total. Special-grade mangoes cost 8 yuan per catty. They have a mango sorting factory over there, and the picked mangoes are sorted.
They only sell it." Li Xuebin said: "This year, the mangoes in the valley are very good, and they can almost compete with the mangoes in Dongmen Town."
"Are the mangoes more expensive in Dongmen Town?" Second Uncle Ye Mo asked.
"This year, the mangoes in Huacheng have soared. Small orders from abroad are flying in like snowflakes, causing the price to rise sharply." Li Xuebin took a sip of beer and continued: "Huangtupo Village is now renamed Huangtushan Mango Ecological Planting
In the tourist demonstration area, the price of the whole mango garden there is 6.5 yuan, and they have all been sold."
Uncle Ye Mo took a deep breath.
6.5 yuan…
The price has really taken off.
Although mangoes in some places can be sold for 8 yuan or even 10 yuan... But that price is not the price of picking the entire garden. And only the best mangoes can be sold at that price after being sorted after picking...
The whole garden costs 6.5 yuan, which is incredible.
In the past, the mangoes they managed could produce about 4,000 kilograms per mu. If calculated as four thousand kilograms, it would be 6.5 yuan per kilogram... then one mu would be 26,000 yuan.
But, my second uncle has no regrets either.
After their hometown was expropriated, they came here to buy an orchard... To sum it up, they still made a profit, and a big profit at that.
Fortunately, I came here to buy an orchard.
With the mango prices this year, I don’t know how those people who originally planned to buy an orchard but regretted it midway... are feeling now.
"By the way, have you watched the news recently? An 8.3-pound Kate mango came out of the valley, which caused a sensation." Li Xuebin said.
"Cowhide." Ye Mo's father said: "I have grown mangoes for so many years, and the largest single mango is only 5 pounds and 6 taels."
"I had one over 6 pounds."
"Can a mango grow up to 8 pounds?" Master Li and others at the next table were shocked.
"Many years ago, an 8-pound Kate mango was sold here in Huacheng."
"How big is an 8-pound mango?"
"Bigger than my face."
"How much does it cost for such a big mango?" Ye Mo asked.
"I've bid up to 50,000 yuan, but no one is willing to sell it. It is said that someone has offered up to 110,000 yuan..."
One mango costs 110,000 yuan, which is a bit scary.
Ye Mo was wondering if he should also cultivate some extra large Kate mangoes, but after thinking about it... he felt it was not necessary.
I was already quite a monster in this Gaoshanping area, and if I made some more trouble, I might attract a lot of people's attention.
Now it's good to make a fortune in silence like this.
The Kate mango variety is originally a large variety of mangoes. It is common for one weighing one kilogram, one weighing three or four kilograms is also more common, and one that weighs five or six kilograms is also easy to find. The one that weighs seven or eight kilograms is very rare... like
As big as eight pounds, you may not see one for several years.
The taro roasted chicken is ready and it’s time to start serving it.
Bacon, country, vegetables...
A bowl full of crayfish was served on the table, paired with snails...
Spicy snails taste very spicy, but also very fragrant, which makes people want to stop. There is also crayfish. Now this crayfish is back to normal, with firm meat and unique umami taste...
After eating and bragging, Li Xuebin and his assistant were the first to leave.
Ye Mo and the others were bragging on the table until nine o'clock, then they dispersed.
