Alpine Orchard - Chapter 181
[Chapter 181 Looking forward to]
Parents also applied organic fertilizers and planted grass in their mango orchard.
When he came to the second uncle’s house, Ye Mo washed his hands first and went into the living room.
There are two big tables in the living room, Tang Xun and the third uncle are there…
“Today I eat fish.” The second uncle said, “I caught a big fish in the reservoir a few days ago.”
“Second uncle, you have said it many times We all know that you caught a big silver carp weighing more than 20 kilograms.” Ye Ran said.
The second uncle laughed, full of complacency.
“Dad, you don’t have to talk about it all the time when you catch a big fish. You don’t get tired of what you say, we all get tired of hearing it.” Ye Zhi took a can of cold beer for Ye Mo and looked at his father.
Everyone is smiling.
After Ye Mo’s work is over, he has more free time.
It seems that four or five days ago, my second uncle caught a 27-jin big silver carp and brought it back to raise it. He has been reluctant to eat it. Fertilizing at home today, he finally contributed the big silver carp.
The water level of the Niujiaoling Reservoir has dropped by almost eight or nine meters. It is still the peak period of irrigation water. During this period, the temperature is high, the water temperature is also high, and the water is shallow, so the fish in it are easier to catch.
During this time, not only Ye Mo’s father and the others went fishing, many people in the village bought fishing rods, and when they passed by in the afternoon…you could see them sitting in rows.
“Have you negotiated a good price for the watermelon? How much is it per catty?” Tang Xun asked.
Watermelons are rare now.
Yesterday Zhang Xia wanted to buy a watermelon online. The better Kirin watermelon costs 14 yuan per catty, so she didn’t buy it.
The price of Kirin watermelon has always been relatively expensive.
On platforms like JD.com, in May, Kirin watermelons can still sell for eight or nine yuan per catty.
“Four or five yuan per catty.” Ye Mo said with a smile.
“It’s so expensive.” The third uncle looked over.
“There are few melons now, so the price is expensive. It will be cheaper after a while.”
Tang Xun said: “The Kirin watermelons I saw on the Internet are expensive for fourteen or five yuan, and the cheap ones are ten yuan per catty. Purchase It’s only four or five yuan per catty?”
“Four or five yuan per catty, this price is already very high,” Ye Mo said.
For this price, Ye Mo is very satisfied.
The first batch, more than 2,000 plants.
There are 5 watermelons in a plant, and each watermelon weighs five or six catties…
If it costs 5 yuan per catty, one plant… 130 yuan.
It is 4 yuan per catty, one plant… that is one hundred and ten yuan.
The first batch is about 4,200 plants, costing 460,000 to 570,000 yuan.
Kirin watermelon, the planting time is about the same. After picking for the first time, you can pick later, and the price difference will not be particularly large.
Just one unicorn watermelon alone can sell more than one million yuan.
“When will it be sold?”
“The fastest day after tomorrow. The slowest, the day
after tomorrow…” After dinner.
Ye Mo and Lin Xiaomian returned to Gaoshanping.
“Those watermelons can really be sold for four or five yuan?” Lin Xiaomian said.
“Well, almost.” Ye Mo nodded.
Those watermelons are of good quality, and they cost four or five yuan per catty, which is about the same price. It is true that some watermelons can be sold for more than ten yuan per catty when they come out of the fields, but those are very few, very few.
Ye Mo’s planting area is large, and they don’t have their own sales channels. If they sell to fruit merchants, they will definitely not be able to match the market price.
Lin Xiaomian smiled: “It’s exhausting to plant and manage those watermelons.”
Ye Mo nodded.
This year, there were no major mistakes in the planting and management of watermelons.
If there’s one downside, it’s the output.
Ye Mo’s yield per mu is about the same as that of greenhouse melons. The labor paid is much more than that of greenhouse melons.
For Kirin watermelon, if it is in a greenhouse, 2,200 plants can be planted per mu, one melon per plant, and the yield is no worse than Ye Mo’s.
The unicorn melon cultivated by Ye Mo with Lingquan can be expanded to 500 plants per mu. In that case, the output can be improved a lot, at least higher than that of the greenhouse.
After hard work this year, next year I will not plant watermelons or plant less hard work.
Growing watermelons is exhausting.
After entering March, everyone worked very hard in the fields, mainly because of the heat and the sun.
Back home, Ye Mo picked up Lin Xiaomian and went upstairs: “Why
are
you losing weight again?”
This is an electronic scale that Ye Ran bought for weighing.
“A few days ago, you were still 102 catties, but today you are only 100 catties.” Ye Mo said, “Are you feeling unwell?”
“No.” Lin Xiaomian grinned: “Isn’t it better to be thinner, beautiful.”
“Ye Ran weighs 105 pounds.” Ye Mo said, “When you’re done with your work, you have to rest well. It’s not good to be too thin.”
“I’m satisfied with my current figure.” Lin Xiaomian opened her hands coquettishly.
Ye Mo smiled and hugged her down, went directly to the bathroom, and turned on the hot water.
Hot water sprayed out from the shower and drenched the two of them…
Soon, their clothes were drenched.
Ye Mo looked at the person in front of him, carefully as if unwrapping a mysterious gift…
“Xiao Mian, let’s get married.” Ye Mo said.
Lin Xiaomian hugged Ye Mo tightly, and said ‘hmm’.
“When the watermelons are sold out, let’s apply for a marriage certificate.” Ye Mo said.
“Okay.” Lin Xiaomian looked shy.
…
At night, it is still very cool, even slightly chilly.
After taking a shower, Ye Mo smoked a cigarette by the window of the living room, and returned to the bedroom…
Lin Xiaomian was looking at clothes in Jingdong, the weather was hot, and she could wear beautiful skirts again.
There are more than a dozen sets of clothes in Lin Xiaomian’s shopping cart, but now, he is poor and has no money.
I bought cake fertilizer before and still had tens of thousands of dollars. I was quite affluent at first, but the water bill… I pay the water bill every March.
There are more than 2,000 acres of Gaoshanping, and there are two super-large reservoirs, which use up a lot of water in a year.
They didn’t have enough money, so they borrowed 50,000 yuan from Ye Ran.
Now, the two have a total of more than 1,000 yuan in their hands. However, the watermelon ripens immediately.
Just wait for the watermelon to start selling, and you can earn hundreds of thousands in a day.
“Looking at the clothes again.” Ye Mo lay down next to Lin Xiaomian.
“When the watermelon is sold, I want to buy some beautiful clothes.” Lin Xiaomian pouted and looked at Ye Mo.
Ye Mo smiled and scratched the tip of her nose, and said, “Buy some more sexy underwear and pajamas.”
Lin Xiaomian gave him a blank look.
At night, all kinds of insects began to come out again, rustling and calling.
the next day.
Its daybreak.
The morning is particularly cool and is the most comfortable time of the day.
At such a comfortable time, I just want to sleep late…
Lin Xiaomian was extremely reluctant, so she got up from the warm bed, stretched out her hand, and gently pinched the tender flesh on Ye Mo’s waist: “I’m going to drive the excavator. ”
“Go.” Ye Mo said.
“What are you doing today?”
“I want to build a sunshade.” Ye Mo said.
“Where is the sunshade?”
“Over the melon field, build a few sunshades to facilitate the loading of watermelons in the back.” Ye Mo hugged Lin Xiaomian and pulled him into his arms: “If you are tired, don’t go, rest at home ”
“How good is this.”
“Look at Zhang Xia and Wang Yue, if you want to rest, you can rest. If you don’t go, no one will tell you.” Ye Mo said.
Excavators are not unmanned over there.
Zhang Xia, Chen Chen, and Ye Mo’s second uncle can excavate machines.
Lin Xiaomian shook her head and struggled to leave Ye Mo’s arms: “It would be bad if I was lazy. I’m not married yet, even if I pretend, I have to pretend to be diligent.”
“Oh, if you want to go, go, Go to bed if you don’t want to go.” Ye Mo looked at her: “Second Uncle’s job is just a little bit. It doesn’t matter if you go or not.”
