Time flies in the busy, and in a blink of an eye, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year has arrived, and Qi Jingtao has taken the time to transfer a large number of fruit tree seedlings prepared by Lao Qi to the temporary nursery of the Granary River, and only wait for the villagers who are over the New Year to come and transplant them on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

The fruit tree saplings prepared by Lao Qi are growing well, and they seem to have been kept fresh and moisturized by the ring space, and their vitality is even stronger, and they are likable when they look at it.

There is a historical tradition of Qiguanying operating orchards, and there are many people in the village who know how to manage orchards. Qi Zhengming took advantage of the Spring Festival to not only organize the orchard management team, but also screen nearly 500 people from the whole village who are willing to sign up as full-time employees of the orchard. The source of personnel is mainly three natural villages and 11 production teams under the jurisdiction of the village committee, covering more than 400 villager families in the village committee, most of whom are 40~50 years old villagers with rich agricultural experience. Moreover, people of this age group are still strong laborers in the countryside, hard-working, and particularly responsible, and are the best people to run orchards.

After the fruit tree saplings were ready, Qi Zhengming took these more than 500 people as the backbone, divided them into ten operation teams, more than 100 operation groups, and led more than 1,000 people who temporarily invited helpers, and planted all the fruit tree seedlings in the ground in just one week.

In the later period, the daily management was mainly based on these more than 500 people, and the daily production management was organized according to the division of labor and cooperation according to the farm work that each person is good at.

The Spring Festival holiday has ended, and he has returned to normal work, Qi Jingtao is not worried about the transplantation of fruit trees in the granary river, and he has to come back every day after work. Others thought that those fruit saplings were bought by him from other places, but only he knew that those fruit saplings came from time and space in 2016. Saplings are also living organisms, they are alive. He wanted to take a closer look at the growth of the trans-space-time species that had been transported through the ring space.

"Xiaotao, now that the water is available, the fruit tree seedlings have just been planted this year, as long as the fruit tree seedlings are watered and fertilized regularly to ensure that the fruit tree seedlings survive. The people in the village who came to plant fruit trees are very experienced, and there are also those veterans who lead the digging pits and cultivating the soil, and it is not yet clear that they are surviving. However, I don't think it's a big problem, the spring has already started a year ago, and the saplings have already woken up, and the survival rate can basically be determined after about ten days of observation. If you can't survive, you will have time to replenish the planting this year. ”

Qi Zhengming and his son walked on the hillside, checking the transplantation of fruit saplings and talking about things in the orchard.

"Dad, I'm not worried about this, theoretically, as long as the saplings are planted before the Qingming Festival, they can survive. As you can see, these fruit tree seedlings are different from the ones I bought this time, they are all cultivated with large nutrient bags, and they are alive and well, and the fruit tree seedlings are almost two meters tall, so I wonder if I can eat the first batch of cherries this year. These fruit tree saplings were brought in from other places, and I came to see if they could adapt to the climate here. ”

"The survival rate of fruit tree seedlings cultivated with nutrient bags is indeed high, and the fruit tree seedlings are larger, but it is more troublesome to transplant, but the effect is very good, and maybe it can shorten the fruit-bearing cycle. However, don't expect a fruit tree harvest in the last three years. Hehe, such a large area of mountains and valleys can not be idle, bare, rainy days will also suffer, in the event of heavy rain, it will also cause serious water and soil flow. Qi Zhengming pointed to a large area of bare hillside and said.

"Dad, in terms of the planning plan, aren't there flood control canals, dams, and ponds?" Qi Jingtao asked puzzled.

"Your aunt and father have organized excavators and bulldozers to excavate, but you also have to prevent accidents. It was originally overgrown with thatch and shrubs, and the surface was protected. In this big cleanup, all the fires were burned out, and the hillside was re-excavated and leveled. Look at it, the fruit tree saplings are still sparse, how conspicuous is the large area of soil exposed?" Qi Jingtao said, pointing to a large area of bare red soil.

"Hehe, it's too monotonous. Dad, are the periphery isolation zones planted with some thorn betel nuts, which can not only play a role in isolation and protection, but also beautiful during the flowering and fruiting period, which is very ornamental. Those with steep slopes, and between the fruit groves, are shrubs, meadows, and shelter woodlands on the plan. This year, we can also arrange for manual planting, and I will send the seedlings in a few days. It's just that the land in the orchard is not well arranged, so you can't grow grass. Qi Jingtao doesn't seem to understand anything about agriculture.

"Hehehe, you, don't always think about trees. The official name here is the Granary River, and there was no water before, so it was called such a good name in vain. Now it's different, such a large piece of mountainous land, every ten acres of land is arranged with a water storage tank, planting flue-cured tobacco, growing grain can have a good harvest, but also to prevent soil erosion. Qi Zhengming pointed to the mountains and said his next step in high spirits.

"Growing grain and flue-cured tobacco in the orchard? Qi Jingtao looked at his father suspiciously.

"Hmph, where is the usual cleverness? Who stipulates that only fruit trees can be planted in the orchard? Look at how much land fruit saplings can occupy, and how much space is between fruit trees? Now fruit tree saplings are basically about two meters high, as long as you let go of the half-meter area around the roots of fruit trees, how much land can be used? Those idle fields can only grow grass, except for corn, what kind of crops can affect the normal growth of fruit tree saplings?"

Qi Jingtao was stunned by his father's questioning, his face was hot and weird, and after he came to his senses, he immediately said to his father convincingly: "Hehehe, that's really the case! Dad, are you an expert in farming, or do you have experience." Hehehe, crops can be interplanted with each other, and crops and other cash crops can indeed be planted in the orchard. However, don't think about flue-cured tobacco, it's too wasteful of labor. Dad, these fields are all raw land, and the peppers grown in the raw land are good. Just plant all the peppers. ”

Qi Zhengming looked at his son with a smile and asked, "Hehehe, all the chili peppers, three or four thousand acres of chili peppers, can they be sold?"

"Dad, have you forgotten what Shi Lei is doing? You just need to organize people to plant and plant them for him to sell. If the green peppers in the market are not available at a high price, we can still keep them and sell the dried peppers. It is more convenient and worry-free than growing flue-cured tobacco, and it does not need to be controlled. Qi Jingtao made up for his mistakes and gave his father suggestions that he thought was appropriate.

"It's okay, even if you plant 3,000 acres of chili peppers, harvest 3,000 catties of green peppers per mu, and sell them for 2 yuan per kilogram, if you plant them, you can have a gross income of 16 or 7 million for a stubble of chili peppers. The temperature here is high, the frost-free period is also long, and you can plant two or three crops a year after planning, and you don't have to wait for the fruit to hang fruit, and I will take back the money you put into the crops. In addition, the aquaculture industry can also start ......"

Qi Zhengming guided his son through education, walking in his orchard with high spirits, pointing out the country and talking about the future, as if he was ten years younger.

A man with a career is very energetic regardless of his age!
