Alpine Orchard - Chapter 42

[Chapter 42 Yumin Orchard]

Drank a lot of beer last night.

After sleeping until dawn, Ye Mo woke up to check the time, went out and knocked on Ye Ran’s room: “Get up and make breakfast, I still have something to do here, call me when you’re ready.”

“What do you need?” Something?”

“A fellow villager was invited to come over and help me plant the saplings.” Ye Mo went downstairs as he said, Chen Chen had already woken up and was washing his face with cold water outside.

“I have something to do, I will show you the orchard later.” Ye Mo said.

“Do you need help?”

“I hired someone to help me cut the branches of the durian tree.”

“You really want to plant durian trees. The climate here should not be able to grow them.” Chen Chen said.

“Plant durian trees and sell saplings.” Ye Mo smiled: “Before in Gaotupo, a large number of durian trees bore fruit. I’ll go out and do some work…”

“Yeah.”

Ye Mo rode a battery car and saw them on the way. Liu Bin, his wife, and other villagers.

“Boss Ye, we’re here.” Liu Bin said.

Ye Mo stopped the car, took out a cigarette, and lit one for the men: “I got up late this morning, I’m sorry.”

“We just arrived.”

“Go to the warehouse over there, I’ll tell you what to do… …”

When they came to the warehouse, Ye Mo took Liu Bin to the side to chat alone, and said: “The salary is all negotiated, 260 yuan a day.”

“It’s all negotiated.

” Do you send it to them? Or…”

“Whatever you want, it’s fine. The people here are all from the village, including my elder brother, elder sister-in-law, second brother and second sister-in-law, and neighbors who are very close.” Liu Bin said with a smile. He understood what Ye Mo meant…

Everyone brought pruning scissors and pruning knives.

Ye Mo took out his electric scissors and gave everyone a demonstration: “Leave the branches about 15 centimeters long…” Ye Mo built a few: “Each branch must have a bud opening, and the bud opening must face upward. The cutting edge should be sterilized before cutting… The cutting edge below should be soaked in rooting agent. Cut it off, soak it in the rooting agent first, and take it out for cuttings later.”

“Then make nutrient soil…”

The 20 tons of organic fertilizer that Ye Mo ordered earlier has also been delivered.

Ye Mo drove the orchard off-road vehicle to load the soil and came back to make some organic fertilizer.

“Boss Ye, what kind of fruit tree branch is this?” Liu Bin asked.

“Durian trees.”

“Can we grow durians here?”

“Not sure now, in the experimental stage.” Ye Mo said: “We can plant live durian trees here, but it is not easy to bear fruit. These trees have grown up. If it doesn’t bear fruit, I’ll sell it as a landscaping tree in the future.”

“I heard that it takes more than ten years for a durian tree to bear fruit, is it true?”

“Almost.”

Ye Mo cut the branches with everyone for a while, then received a call , told everyone, and then left on a battery car.

Ye Ran has made breakfast.

Sausage, bacon, and a salad of Zheergen roots and leaves.

The zheergen was dug outside the house, by the reservoir, and it is a wild zheergen.

The wild Zheer root has a strong fragrance.

“Why do you put so many Chaotian peppers?” Ye Mo tasted Zheergen, it tasted very good, but it was too spicy.

Ye Mo has been in Shenzhen for a long time, and he is not particularly fond of spicy food.

“Chen Chen made it cold.”

“I don’t know your taste.”

“It’s just a little spicy, but it tastes good.” Ye Mo smiled.

After eating, I cleaned up the kitchen.

Ye Mo sat on the red flag, Ye Ran opened the passenger door and sat up, and said to Ye Mo with a hippie smile: “Brother, you don’t drive this car often, so let me drive it.”

“If you want to be beautiful, eat chicken legs.” Ye Mo started Car, drive the car out.

“I heard that your car only has a range of 200 kilometers. My car can run more than 300 kilometers on a single charge.” Ye Ran hummed.

Ye Mo shrugged…

He hasn’t run a long distance yet, and it will take a long time to charge the battery once.

With a battery life of 660 kilometers, I feel that it should be possible to run 400 kilometers.

For people like Ye Mo who don’t travel long distances, not to mention a battery life of 400 kilometers, it can be used with a battery life of 300 kilometers.

Moreover, it is a home charging pile. Generally speaking, it is cheaper to use than a fuel vehicle. More importantly, the maintenance of new energy vehicles is very cheap.

And the exterior and interior of the car are very comfortable.

It has been more than half a year since I bought this car, and every time I drive it out, it still feels fresh, that is, the excitement after getting in the car.

The advantage is that the car looks good, the interior is good, and the space is large.

Anyway, Ye Mo thinks this car looks good. Every time I drive out, the rate of returning is particularly high.

“What do you want for my car worth 680,000 yuan instead of a car worth more than 100,000 yuan?” Ye Mo scorned Ye Ran fiercely.

Ye Ran pursed his mouth.

“It’s not impossible for you to drive this car. Come and help me later…help me fix this orchard.”

Ye Ran made a grimace at Ye Mo: “I was going to introduce you to a girlfriend, you This person doesn’t deserve a female ticket.”

“Hehe… I’m handsome and rich, but I don’t want to look for it now. If I make a move, I’ll settle it in minutes.” Ye Mo drove the car down the mountain.

Ye Ran looked disgusted.

The two-lane asphalt road has been repaired to the top of the mountain. The hillside here is higher than the previous high soil slope, but the slope is much slower.

Down the mountain, to the north, a small valley.

The valley is several hundred meters wide at its widest point, but the land is undulating, and fields with different heights have been reclaimed on the side of the road, and now they are planted with fruit trees.

Households are scattered in the valley, but the main villages are concentrated on the right side of the valley, at the foot of the mountain.

After walking about one kilometer, there is a valley in the east, and the car turns right.

The road winds up the hillside.

Yumin Orchard is in the innermost part of the valley, on a big mountain.

There is a reservoir called Niujiaoling above Yumin Orchard. The reservoir looks like a bull’s head, a buffalo’s bull’s head, with two big horns…

Niujiaoling Reservoir is backed by mountains and has abundant water resources. The reservoir will often release water to meet the surrounding irrigation.

The irrigation water pipes of Gaoshanping seem to have been taken over from Niujiaoling Reservoir.

Below the road are paddy fields, scattered in height and low in height.

Houses of people are mainly on both sides of the road.

It is really not easy for mountain people to grow rice. However, fruit is also grown on the big hillside here. Some mangoes, more pomegranates.

The local pomegranate is said to be very good.

Along the concrete road to the mountain, you will see Yumin Orchard.

There was a gate to the orchard, but it was unguarded.

Ye Mo drove the car in and came to the dormitory area: “Hi, is Mr. Yu in?”

Yu Minfeng, the boss of Yumin Orchard.

“Yes.” The janitor in the dormitory area recognized Ye Mo, he had been here before.

The uncle called Yu Minfeng, and after a while, Yu Minfeng came out, short and dark-skinned: “Hey, Mr. Ye.”

“Mr. Yu…” Ye Mo smiled and took Yu Minfeng’s outstretched hand, and said, “This is my younger brother, Chen Chen. Take him over to see the orchard…”

“Mr. Chen, hello.” Yu Min Feng knew that Ye Mo bought the land in Gaoshanping. When Ye Mo came this time, Yu Minfeng was obviously much more enthusiastic.
