Xu Suizhu is also worried these days: Keshan local specialties are selling so well through live broadcasts and word-of-mouth from the first few customers, but there is not enough supply to sell them. Netizens who went to agricultural and sideline products complained about it.
In fact, she has been working very hard to develop agricultural and sideline products in Keshan.
The current local specialty online store, in addition to the initially put on the shelves of dried mushrooms, native chicken eggs, and bamboo products, has also successively put on the shelves Wenwan walnuts, pickled vegetables, dried fruits... The new high-mountain fresh milk added a few years ago is even more popular. Well received.
Speaking of fresh milk, we have to mention that the reclaimed hillsides are really suitable for raising cattle.
The sunny slopes are covered with alfalfa, which is the favorite food of cows, and are watered with clear and pollution-free mountain spring water.
On a clear day, the black-and-white cows swung their tails and strolled leisurely on the grass slopes in the sun, slowly nibbling a few bites of alfalfa, known as the "King of Forage", and when thirsty, they drank in the gurgling stream. Take a few sips of the clear spring water flowing from the rock wall on the top of the mountain.
The water quality is not as good as the deep mineral water she uses for medicine, cosmeceuticals, and fruit drinks, and it is many times better than the municipal drinking water consumed by residents in cities outside.
After eating well, drinking well, and being able to roam freely on the hillside and bask in the sun, the flower cows are in a happy mood. Not only do they produce high amounts of milk, but the quality of the milk is also very good.
The reason why Xu Suizhu originally wanted to raise a few cows in Keshan was that it was too troublesome to transport fresh milk from the northern pasture. Milk powder, milk tablets and other dairy products can be mailed and shipped, but fresh milk cannot wait.
So when he visited Keshan for the second time, he saw that the newly cultivated hillside was very suitable for breeding, so he asked Cheng Yuliang to hire some workers to build cattle sheds and pens, and at the same time plant alfalfa all over the hillside. Hailar's ranch transported a few cows at their peak milk production period, hoping to open a small stove for the family.
Unexpectedly, the milk production greatly exceeded her expectations. One cow easily produced 50 kilograms of milk every day, and she transported eight cows...
This math problem is simple: it is conservatively estimated that we can harvest 400 kilograms of milk every day, and the production is still increasing. Who can bear this!
Even after contracting the milk needs of relatives and friends, there was still a lot left, so Cheng Yuliang suggested selling it on an online store.
Of course, the delivery address is only around Keshan, which is too far and inconvenient.
In the beginning, it was purely to consume excess milk. It would be a pity to throw it away. I charged a cost price and benefited the surrounding people by the way.
Unexpectedly, the response was so good that many netizens in the comment area begged for fresh milk. This attracted purchases from many dairy processing plants.
Cheng Yuliang thought this was a good opportunity. There were so many hills in Keshan. Opening up any of them to build an alpine breeding farm would not only promote Keshan but also increase income. The aborigines could also have more jobs at their doorsteps. Kill multiple birds with one stone.
Xu Suizhu read the plan jointly submitted by him and Secretary Zhao, and felt that this large-scale ecological cattle breeding project still has investment value. Plant grass to raise cattle, and compost cow manure to grow fruit trees and flowers...
If there are too many hills, you can also learn the herding methods of those large milk-producing countries abroad - the grass on this hill is almost eaten, and the cattle are driven to the next hill, eat the grass on the next hill, and then drive to the next hill. The top of the mountain...
When all the hills have been visited, and the grass on the first hill is almost well maintained, then rush back...
It is said that "exercise is indispensable in order to raise a cow well." If you repeat this cycle, doesn't it exercise the cow? At the same time, it also gives several mountains time to recuperate. A win-win situation!
Xu Suizhu waved his hand, signed and agreed, and let Cheng Yuliang lead his team to get busy.
On the occasion of the New Year, Keshan established an alpine ecological ranch. Once the fresh milk was put on the market, it was particularly popular among locals.
Also, transportation here is originally inconvenient. Yupu City can still drink fresh milk shipped from Haicheng, but the people in Keshan area have no chance.
Now that we have an ecological ranch at our doorstep, we can drink as much as we want, and if we can’t finish it, we can make all kinds of dairy snacks.
For a time, bread, steamed buns, and pastries made from milk could be seen everywhere in Keshan Town...Milk-flavored snacks gradually became Keshan's gourmet specialty.
Tourists who come here may not necessarily buy anything else, but they must try the snacks made from milk produced in the alpine ecological pasture.
That's a story for another day.
At the moment, there is another thing that makes Teacher Xu particularly worried, that is, the local specialties from Keshan are selling so well that they cannot be delivered in time.
Even if improved trucks can deliver goods in three shifts around the clock, the road conditions in some towns are really bad.
Although the highway network has been implemented in province Z ahead of schedule, there are still many towns in other provinces that rely on national highways, but there are all kinds of vehicles on the national highways, cars, trucks, ox carts, mule carts, bicycles...
The national highways in many cities and towns are still the original two-lane, not to mention non-motorized lanes and sidewalks. As a result, the improved trucks have the ability to increase speed, but they cannot use it.
The Keshan Freight Station invested by Xu Suizhu has been equipped with ten large trucks that can withstand long-distance travel. However, due to road conditions, they still cannot be allocated during busy times.
I originally wanted to develop step by step, but it doesn't seem to work now.
Fortunately, she asked Qi Heng to design a drone-style aerial delivery artifact and sent it to the Super Star Technology Laboratory, planning to start production in advance.
With the drone delivery artifact, you only need to set up a transfer station in a key city, park a few trucks at the transfer station, and wait for the drone to deliver the packaged goods to the transfer station. The trucks can set off immediately, eliminating the need for round-trip passengers.
This section of the mountain.
Mr. Fu received the design drawing and happily summoned the engineers to make it.
Not surprisingly, they should be able to make it before the Keshan local specialty store experiences the first wave of sales this spring.
This first month has been spent busy and running around.
School was about to start, and Xu Suizhu urged the children to pack their bags and go home.
"Can't we stay for two more days? Registration has to wait until the day after tomorrow." Little Baozi was reluctant to leave the picturesque Hakka Mountain.
"You haven't had enough fun yet? It's only been two days, why don't you take it easy? Do you still need to check your winter vacation homework? Are you sure you've finished it?"
Xu Suizhu was speechless.
Ever since he came to Keshan, this boy has gone out early and come back late all day long, running around in the mountains and forests. Today he is climbing trees to pick wild fruits, and tomorrow he is wielding a bullwhip and herding cows, and both the dragon and the phoenix are playing wild.
Don't even think about calming down until you go back for three to five days.
"Be good and let me take you here to play during the summer vacation. The summer in Keshan will be even more beautiful."
"Can I go into the water to play in the summer?" Zhuan Zhuan saw the pebbles in the stream that were not as round as winter, and wanted to go into the water to touch them several times. If the robot nanny hadn't been quick and quick to carry him ashore, he would have been frozen in the spring water many times.
"Can I carry a butterfly in the summer?" Girls like this.
"I'm going to camp in the mountains in the summer."
Xu Suizhu treated the three children equally: "It depends on your performance."
