Thinking of this, Song Tan couldn't help but feel depressed - because if it continues to develop on this scale, I'm afraid that whatever he plants in the future will have to be covered.
Lao Zhao was also speechless for a moment.
After thinking about it, I simply said as an afterthought: "Then... wouldn't it be enough to put a bag on the fruit?"
Before Lao Zhao finished speaking, the two of them had already opened the orchard door.
Song Tan pointed to the fruitful peach tree in front of him:
"Look, is it more convenient to add a lid or a bag?"
The slender peach leaves are densely packed, rustling in the wind, and the huge green and white and red peaches in the middle are crowded together, looking at the growth, it looks like you are fighting for it.
That's it, how do you put a bag on it? And why do you have time to put a bag on it?
Lao Zhao didn't need to answer for a moment.
In fact, the family has been thinking of ways to deal with the birds in the orchard and vegetable fields for a long time - Song Tan's current ability can only repel some insects intermittently, but the repellent is not comprehensive.
There's really nothing you can do about this bigger one.
Therefore, Old Man Li planted a scarecrow in the vegetable field at first!
The scarecrow was perfectly erected and even had a coat on it. But today's birds are really rampant and lawless - of course, it cannot be ruled out that the things in the ground are too good and too tempting.
In short, it was of no use at all. They even formed a group to hold a meeting on the scarecrow!
Chirping, so arrogant.
Later, Song Tan bought a magical bird-repelling device online that made sounds that could be heard by both humans and birds, but it was not effective at all.
But fortunately, the vegetable field is not big. With the three treasures and four treasures watching over it, and a few half-grown garden dogs, happily coming and going, I can barely prevent it.
But this orchard is different.
Not to mention that there are watermelon vines everywhere in the peach forest, which makes it inconvenient for a few dogs to run around. In other words, the fruit trees are so tall and the branches are branchy. If the birds stand in the middle or at the top to steal food, there is no way to stop them.
Unable to live.
The king is tall and can jump far, but he can't jump into a tree!
In the end, after changing it again and again, it turned out that the simplest method was the most effective.
No, now the shelter is perfect, which really makes the Zhang Wang family, who worry about the orchard every day, breathe a sigh of relief.
After hearing this, Lao Zhao was helpless.
At this moment, looking at the big green peaches all over the mountains and plains, I feel a little bit sad - it's not easy!
Then he asked curiously: "It seems like no one grows your hawkbill peach here, right? Is it really more delicious than local peaches?"
Song Tan feels proud when talking about this.
There is only one kind of May peach in their local area, which has the same crisp and sweet taste, but it is not large-scale. Each household only grows one or two trees, so the varieties are not iteratively updated.
To be honest, the taste is really mediocre.
And now...
"This hawkbill peach is actually the most similar to our local peaches. It is crispy and sweet, and the peach flavor is particularly rich. The only thing that is a little different from the peaches here is that its peach has a curved hook on the tip, like an eagle.
mouth, so it’s called the Eagle Beak Peach.”
This is also the eagle beak, which is particularly easy to break during transportation. Fortunately, it basically does not affect eating. However, when they put it on the shelf, they must indicate that this kind of broken tip is not covered by the after-sales service.
….
Song Tan reminded himself secretly.
"We tried it two days ago, and the taste is beyond praise."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and broke the cluster of peaches in front of her into the basket one by one. Even though they looked green and slightly red, in fact, the red part was already a sign of extraordinarily abundant light maturity.
Even the greenest little peaches are edible now, but they are not sweet enough and the taste is much worse.
Speaking of taste, Lao Zhao has no doubts about it!
At this moment, I was smacking my lips. My stomach, which I had just drank the white fungus soup, seemed to be empty again...
However, the two of them had just picked half of the basket when they heard a call from Party Secretary Xiao Zhu:
「
Song Tan, do you still remember the subsidy for your orchard? It’s 300 per acre. Didn’t you say that the peaches were about to mature two days ago? I’m urging them to come down and inspect it.”
She lowered her voice:
"I see that you have a lot of peaches on the mountain this year. It's too difficult to sell these things in bulk. I'll see if I can get the contact information of some big and reliable dealers from people like them."
[Currently used, it is the most comprehensive and best-used book-listening sound system. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and is an artifact that supports offline reading, hunn.]
Song Tan nodded quickly: "Okay!"
She even immediately decided to go to the field to break a basket of corn cobs tomorrow!
How to put it this way, it is not for promotion, but for these hard-working government workers to feel the simplicity and enthusiasm of their rural people!
Lao Zhao waited patiently for her to finish the call, and said nervously next to him: "No matter what, you can't forget me here! I must have peaches!"
"I know." Song Tan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I would like to sell them all to wholesalers on a large scale. Which of my crops do you think has enough yield?"
Lao Zhao became even more nervous:
"I'm talking about the future! No matter what, we can't forget the friendship we had as a stall owner in the vegetable market. Next year your place will grow in size, so you can't forget me no matter what!"
"Look, I've rented this store for you!"
This is what I said...
Song Tan directly pushed the basket to him: "You pick peaches carefully and don't think too much."
Seeing Lao Zhao taking the basket with a relieved look, she simply asked: "By the way, the chickens and ducks I raised before have laid eggs. The duck eggs are going to be pickled and salted, so I won't sell them yet. But can the eggs be produced every day?
few……"
"Do you even need to ask if you want this?"
Lao Zhao was dissatisfied: "Just tell me the price and just give it to me. By the way, how much can you pay in one day?"
Song Tan thought for a while - there were a hundred or ten chicks in total, and none of them died when they were so big.
After excluding a few roosters, the rest have already started laying eggs. Because they are still young, the frequency of egg laying is not particularly stable, but there are always more than 70 eggs a day, right?
Deducting what the family eats by themselves...
"50 a day, 10 yuan each."
Lao Zhao:......
"Fifty a day? You said you can get a lot? That's a lot?! Anyone can just pick it up!"
"There's nothing we can do about it."
Song Tan was helpless: "I raise too many eggs to take care of. I originally kept these eggs for myself to eat. If it weren't for the hot weather and I couldn't hold these eggs, I wouldn't be in a hurry to sell them."
Old Zhao made a calculation in his mind - 50 eggs, if he keeps 10 at home every day, he can sell 40. It's really... ugh! How pitiful!
He had no choice but to warn me again: "Keep the salted duck eggs for me when the time comes. And the fish in your pond, aren't they heard to be quite big? Why don't you just catch them and sell them to me?"
"That's not okay." Salted duck eggs are okay, but fish is not.
Alas, I feel ashamed to say that there is no royal photographer these days, and the baby pictures in the store look a bit out of place.
One side is high definition 4k, the other side is 720 standard definition...the gap is too big!
She didn't want to take advantage of their cameras, it was mainly because there were so many people and it was so lively.
