Chapter Seventy-Six: Orchard Picking
Early morning fog was thick
shrouded the surrounding world,
The thick fog is like a white cloud in the sky, fluttering with the wind.
On the earth, the winding Dabang River is like a dragon in the nine heavens, and the legend is that it soars in the clouds and mist, showing its teeth and dancing its claws, calling for wind and rain, majestic and intimidating, and intimidating.
The Dabang River is the mother river of Qingshan County, with a total length of hundreds of miles, and the clear water of the river Gungun flows eastward, then flows into the Panjiang River, and finally flows to the distant sea with the turbulent Panjiang water.
Therefore, the Tabang River was also the only water passage to the sea in Qingshan and even the entire southwest of Guizhou Province.
At that time, Qingshan County also became a prosperous commercial town, but unfortunately after the fifties and sixties of the last century, the whole country built a large number of civil engineering, built water conservancy projects, the hydropower stations in the upper and lower reaches of the Panjiang River sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, one by one, because there was no planning of the whole basin, resulting in the complete interruption of the shipping route in the middle and upper reaches of the Panjiang River, Qingshan County also lost the opportunity to go to the sea, to the prosperity, gradually declined, became one of the poorest areas in the country.
With the advent of the new century and the large-scale development of the western region, the water transport on the Panjiang River has also been reopened, and the sluices that have been opened one after another are like huge gates leading to the sky, bringing the backward western region to a prosperous world, and the water transport on the Dabang River has also been revitalized again.

Hear the rooster crowing and see the sun rise
The ancients heard the chickens dancing, but in fact, the hard-working villagers of Zhangjiawan were not bad, and they did not have the slightest slack because of the improvement of their lives.
As soon as the day dawned, Zhang Feng's orchard was already a lively scene, take a closer look, there were not only the second uncle's family in the orchard, but also the figure of the second uncle and the duckling, if it weren't for the second aunt working in the county, it would definitely appear here.
Of course, it is impossible for Zhang Feng's family to be absent, everyone is helping to pick peaches, today's peaches are ripe more, if you rely on the three of them alone, it is estimated that it will be busy for a morning, but now with everyone's help, it is estimated that you can pick seven or eight hundred catties of peaches in one or two hours.
"Stinky boy, eat less peaches, what should I do if I have diarrhea for a while?" Uncle Er Niu looked at the pile of peach pits at the feet of the little duck, frowned and said, children eat without moderation, as long as it is delicious, they will eat violently and overeat.
"No, I ate more than that two days ago?" retorted the duckling.
"No, I'll give you three more at most, and if you eat more, I won't kill you. ”
"Hmph, it's not reasonable at all......" the duckling muttered quietly, but he still didn't dare to disobey his father's words.
…………
"The young man is here, bring me five pounds......"
"I want ten pounds ............"
Zhang Feng just picked a load of peaches back, before he walked to the door, he was surrounded by tourists waiting here, Zhang Feng hurriedly put down the burden, and said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone has more peaches today, definitely everyone has them, don't worry......"
Seeing Zhang Feng surrounded by tourists, Xiaomei hurriedly took the scales and plastic bags to go up for reinforcements, and soon everyone distributed the plastic bags, rushed up, and snapped up two baskets of peaches in five or six minutes.
More than 100 catties of peaches were bought up by a few tourists, and many more tourists didn't buy a single peach because they didn't squeeze in.
"Alas, why is it sold out, what if you can't grab it?"
"Young man, let's just go with you to the orchard and buy ......."
"It's just that we can experience the feeling of picking peaches......"
"Yes, young man, we won't destroy the ...... of the fruit trees."
So the tourists who didn't grab the peaches clamored to follow Zhang Feng to the orchard and pick the fruits by themselves.
Zhang Feng thought that it was not far from the orchard, only four or five minutes away, so he promised everyone: "Okay, everyone can go with me, but pay attention to safety and don't damage the fruit ............trees in the orchard."
After Zhang Feng told the tourists, he took everyone to the orchard together.
"Xiaofeng, why did you bring tourists too?" the mother asked suspiciously when she saw Zhang Feng coming to the orchard with twenty or thirty tourists.
"Mom, they ............" Then Zhang Feng said what happened just now,
Everyone was dumbfounded, wasn't it just some fruits? They were in such a hurry? At the same time, everyone also sighed that Zhang Feng's fruits were really charming.
As soon as the tourists came to the orchard, they happily ran to the fruit trees, looking at the excitement they had picked the fruits, as if they had found a treasure, and it seemed that they would cherish it more, be more accomplished, and be more meaningful.
"Haha, I picked a big peach...... one of the tourists exclaimed excitedly.
"Hehe, what are you? I'm the big one......
"What's the use of being big?
Tourists are excited, talking and laughing, happily shuttling between fruit trees, and experiencing the fun of picking in the countryside.
After about half an hour, the tourists finally played almost the same, each of them picked at least a large bag, and even some tourists were too excited to pick, and unconsciously picked twenty or thirty catties.
In the end, everyone weighed that there were seven or eight catties less, and the most buddy actually borrowed a back basket directly and picked a full back basket by himself.
"Dude, why are you buying so much by yourself?" everyone asked him curiously.
"Hehe, of course you have to share such delicious peaches with your family...... the tourist said with a smile.
"Then why don't you just buy one or twenty pounds?" said everyone in surprise.
"How is it enough, my family is four generations in the same house, there are more than 20 people in the family, how can it be enough if you don't buy fifty or sixty catties, if you add my wife's relatives, I am worried that such a basket is not enough." The guy said slowly.
Listening to this buddy, everyone was also dumbfounded, is there still four generations in the same house? This is simply rarer than pandas, everyone knows that even if it is a family of three, every day in the face of fried rice, oil and salt, there may be disputes, not to mention a family of four generations in the same house, twenty or thirty people.
"Hehe, in fact, it's not like everyone thinks, almost all the young people in our family work outside, and there are only a few important festivals a year when everyone gets together, so there are not many people in the family, and there are only about a dozen people. The buddy seemed to understand everyone's thoughts, and explained with a smile.
"Oh!" everyone was stunned, and then gradually dispersed, leaving the orchard.
……
"I really didn't expect that selling fruits could be so easy?" Uncle Er Niu looked at the tourists carrying large bags of fruits, shocked and sighed.
"Hehe, this way has long been available in many places, but there are not many of us here. Zhang Feng smiled, farmhouses in other places, such as do-it-yourself picking is also listed as a program, and many tourists in the city like to experience the fun of picking by themselves.
"Xiaofeng, do the math, how many catties did you sell just now?" the second uncle asked curiously.
"Wait, I'll do the math......" Then Zhang Feng took out the ledger and began to calculate.
"How many?" After about a minute or two, Zhang Feng put down the notebook, and Uncle Er Niu asked eagerly.
"I sold a total of more than 420 catties just now......"
"So much?" everyone was stunned, it was only half an hour of effort, but it was sold for more than 400 catties, and the income was more than 4,000 yuan, everyone has planted crops for a lifetime, where have you seen such a terrible income, only one day, this is less than a kung fu.
The most important thing is that the fruits picked by everyone have not been sold yet, and there are still three hundred catties left, if all of them are sold, then Zhang Feng's family will not have an income of seven or eight thousand today?
It's very scary to think about, the second uncle and the second uncle are also excited, think about their own fruit, although they can't catch up, they also use Zhang Feng's fruity aroma, although the ripening period is a little late, but it will not be bad to sell seven or eight yuan per catty.
Seven or eight pieces of fruit per catty, and the fruits of both families are less than 10,000 catties, so isn't there an income of 70,000 or 80,000 yuan? God, this is really unbelievable, the two of them were completely stunned by such a huge surprise.
"Uncle Erniu, pick peaches and let's go......" Zhang Feng picked up a load of peaches, had already taken a few steps, and turned around to see that Uncle Erniu was still smirking, so he shouted with a smile.
"Ahh......h
The mother's eldest sister and the second uncle's family packed up their tools and followed the two of them to the house, and everyone was very happy on the way back, with happy smiles on their faces.
