Chapter 228: The Waterwheel
Terraces have a great effect on slowing down the decline of soil and rock.
However, in the history of development, it is rare to see the emergence of terraced rice fields on Dayuan Island, which has a large difference in the slope of the land.
Not only is it steep, but it also bears more than twice as much rain as most of the mainland.
What's more, natural disasters such as typhoons and earthquakes will not let go of the role of loose soil.
For this reason, even the hardest rocks on Dayuan Island cannot withstand the force of gravity from typhoons and earthquakes, and they often slide down the mountain.
The function of the terraces is to make the steep place extremely steep, and the gentle place into extremely gentle.
Straighten the ground like a ladder.
This has the advantage that when the water rushes down and encounters a steep slope, it will be opened, but it will be stopped in a flat place, especially a slightly inclined flat place, and although it will speed up the erosion of the soil in this area, the soil will also be accumulated in this place.
At least the soil is still within the boundaries of its own territory, and it can still be piled up on the mountain. It's just a little harder, even if there are machines that can help manpower now, there is no way to do it easily.
But it does have benefits for sustaining a land for a long time.
In Lishan, soil is a precious resource.
Looking at the traces above, Lin Musen knew that Gou Wei and Liu Binjie had worked hard to study farming, and knew that the terraced fields were not just to be built, but they had to keep it alive at any time, and pick up the soil on it and put it on the upper floor.
Therefore, the rate of soil loss in this orchard will be relatively slow, and compared with other orchards, it is already a relatively good soil for soil maintenance.
However, Lin Musen still saw that the reason why the two of them did this kind of thing was that this land was not a good land in the first place, but they used this method to prevent the land from continuing to deteriorate.
The thickness of the soil in the area where Lin Musen is located is relatively low, but the fruit trees are basically quite good.
Lin Musen, who grew up here, still has an impression of the orchards near the city and the deep soil bottom.
Since he is a buyer, although the other party is the parent of a classmate, he has no direct relationship with him, at least not a family that is kind to him.
Then you have to settle accounts with your brothers.
What's more, Gou Wei and Liu Binjie were just classmates in his elementary and junior high school, and he didn't even recognize them when they met again.
When the two were separated in the past few years, there was no contact. When I was in the middle school, the three of them were not one at all.
So in the face of the behavior of the two people in front of him, Lin Musen can ignore it.
When negotiating the price, Lin Musen did not go out in person, he was used to handing over important things to people who were good at it, and he just studied beside him.
When they saw Yang Jiawen come forward on behalf of Lin Musen, Gou Wei sighed and asked Lin Musen secretly: "Won't she be your real girlfriend? What about the other woman?
"Don't talk nonsense, the two of them are just my employees. ”
"Are all the female employees in your company so beautiful?
"You can't. You are not eligible. The net worth can't be compared, and the IQ can't be compared. Not to mention the earning power. ”
If you say that the other party's product is perfect, then the result is that the price will be very high.
Just like Lin Musen said that the mango for sale, because no one can say its shortcomings, at most it is too sweet, but high sweetness has never been the disadvantage of fruits!
There are ways to reduce the sugar content.
Making fruit tea is a good way to do it.
As a result, Lin Musen's mangoes can be sold for a very high price.
Even if it is sold at a high price, it is limited on the Internet, and the actual store is only sold in Dong Wu Milk Ice Store and Shuiling Grocery Store, so the high price has caused panic buying.
According to Fang and Jia Yuxi's reports, sales in these two places are getting faster and faster.
Now the water spirit grocery store is about to become a kumquat lemon shop.
It's not that kumquat lemons don't sell well, it's that the only thing in the store that isn't limited is kumquat lemons.
Even so, she was able to find that the sales rate of kumquat lemons is now increasing exponentially every day.
It's a pity that her bitter tea boiling, after all, takes time, and there is no way to be like kumquat lemons, as long as you go to the supermarket and vegetable market, you can replenish the goods.
Now, people in these places don't need her to buy it in person, they will take the initiative to call her and ask her if she needs it, and deliver it in person.
Jia Yuxi is very smart, he didn't ask for only one, but which one was of better quality, and the proportion of this family's goods would be higher the next day.
In the long run, there will always be a company that will withdraw from the position of kumquat lemon supplier.
Supermarkets were the first to quit, because their work-study students, after all, do not have such sensitive nerves, and more importantly, they have a fixed channel for purchases, and there is no way to change them.
It's easy for people in the wet market.
Jia Yuxi has never bothered with them about the price. She only cares about the quality and the price is expensive, but as long as the quality is high, she happily accepts it, so in the end, when they go to the fruit and vegetable market to wholesale, they will care more about the quality of kumquat and lemon.
Because, the amount Jia Yuxi wants sometimes accounts for half of their daily turnover.
In the end, the value of their transaction was still half higher than the market.
The whole operation process is half natural and half deliberate.
There is a limit on mangoes in the Shuiling grocery store, and she doesn't have much time to collect more grass for bitter tea, and the sauce is delivered, depending on luck, and the only way she can increase her turnover is kumquat lemon.
For her request for special water, Lin Musen has never refused.
However, Jia Yuxi still gave Lin Musen a suggestion, the transportation of special water needs to be kept secret, and it is not suitable for others to transport it anymore.
As a result of Lin Musen's discussion with Yang Jiawen, they need to find a driver, and this driver must also have the ability to preserve.
Lin Musen also noticed that special water is indeed not suitable for too many people's eyes.
For Lin Musen's behavior of transporting water, the freight driver has expressed doubts.
It's a pity that the delivery driver wants to run a single gang and has no intention of joining the gang.
Yang Jiawen means to set up a transportation team by herself.
Now Yang Jiawen is looking for the right person.
Compared with the market price plus half of the price, Yang Jiawen won two orchards. This half of the money is the price of the fruit trees on the tree.
After negotiating the price and signing the contract, the two went to the post office to transfer the money to the post.
As for things like checks, Lin Musen hasn't applied yet.
Checks are at risk of bouncing and are a mode of credit transactions.
But in this era, many people really have no credit.
In most cases, the merchants of Dayuan Island admit it verbally, which means that the deal has been concluded.
Lin Musen felt that his luck was very good, and the Yujing mango orchard was in his hands at the beginning of the season.
And almost all of the pears here have not yet been harvested.
It is estimated that in the past two days, Gou Wei and Liu Binjie were still troubled by their father's thoughts, and they didn't have the heart to pick pears.
After completing the transaction, the two old men left, and Gou Wei and Liu Binjie finally had the opportunity to get close to Lin Musen.
As for Guan Shupin, he had already followed the two old men.
Selling the orchard shows that the two old men have not been in Lishan for a long time.
He is also older, and this separation may be goodbye, so he feels that he should get together more.
The old people have the same thoughts, so they can often be seen chatting and drinking tea together.
I want to cherish the hard-won time together.
For those of them who are from other provinces, the choice of going back or not going back is so difficult.
The mainland, for the time being, will not change. And they're getting old.
From Gou Wei and Liu Binjie, Lin Musen learned that Yang Jiawen did not agree, although he felt that these two people would be the best employees, but he delegated the recruitment power to Yang Jiawen.
Lin Musen himself followed her to study.
Since the teacher has not agreed, Lin Musen, who is a student, is not good at violating the teacher's opinion.
"Our company's recruitment rights are all in Yang Jiawen's hands, and I haven't changed her ability to recruit people.
I recruited several times before, and the people I recruited were too poor, and they all left our company in the end, so I promised that if Yang Jiawen didn't nod people, we wouldn't be able to recruit them. ”
After Gou Wei and Liu Binjie heard it, they said sadly:
"We are classmates, so we can't look at the face of our classmates and recruit the two of us into the company?
You can also tell that both orchards are very well cared for. We will definitely be the best orchard employees. ”
Lin Musen did agree, but he was also a little worried, after he accepted it, the orchard would definitely change, and he still didn't want to put the two of them in the orchard he was familiar with.
Moreover, he has observed that the mountains are different from the flat land, not to mention that the rivers are at the bottom of the deep valleys, and it is not easy to extract water veins from the groundwater at the top of the mountains.
The easiest place to get water is actually in the foothills, and it is often possible to find groundwater without digging wells.
Even if there is running water, the water pressure will be very problematic.
In Lin Musen's memory, although tap water has spread to almost 90% of the households on Dayuan Island, there are still 10% of families who refuse to use tap water, or do not use tap water.
In the earliest days, the Dayuan Water Company would spare no cost and let the people of Dayuan Island have tap water to drink and irrigate.
But it is still not easy for Lishan people to enjoy this benefit.
Fortunately, on the hill, no one has the means to pollute their land.
Their water is the cleanest and sweetest on the island.
Sometimes, it is a little difficult for some families to get water.
Lin Musen felt that it would be very difficult for Gou Wei and Liu Binjie to adapt to the results of the fruits in the orchard becoming delicious. Unlike Mu Yifan, who was able to accept it instantly.
Because he didn't know what the orchard was like before he came.
And the owner of the original orchard has long gone abroad.
"Jiawen, come here, Gou Wei and Liu Binjie want to enter our company, you may have to arrange an interview.
This orchard can, and may also ask for security.
There may be a few more employees to be recruited, because a few grandfathers are also interested in selling the orchard now after hearing that our company is a water spirit fruit company.
Later in the afternoon we will go to another grandfather's house to see another orchard. ”
"Well, then you two can join the company, but you'll be in charge of the other orchards. ”
Yang Jiawen instantly knew Lin Musen's thoughts, and said to Gou Wei and Liu Binjie.
"Ah, why can't we stay in our own orchard?"
"If you don't want to, forget it. In the past few days, the people from the Water Spirit Fruit Company have to come over to be busy, and you are not allowed to approach this place. By the way, if there are your things in the house. Arrange for someone to take your things away today!
I just looked at it and it was full of garbage and it wasn't cleaned up. ”
Yang Jiawen said.
"Can we live here when we join the company?"
"One of them was going to be a staff dormitory, but we had to renovate it. I still have to move things out first. ”
Yang Jiawen thought for a while, and asked Lin Musen what he thought, and then the phone went out, and found a construction company that was closer to Zhongheng to do the renovation work.
"We went into the company. But where are we staying these days?"
"You should go home and accompany the old man, they are leaving, you must go back with you, right? I will give you fifteen days of vacation and send the old man home!
When you return, let you take over the orchard.
But if you don't send the old man home, then go and help in another orchard!"
Lin Musen said suddenly.
He felt that this method could allow Gou Wei and Liu Binjie to fulfill their filial piety, and at the same time allow them to leave the orchard for a while, so that they could accept the change in the taste of the orchard's pears.
"Then we can get to work today. ”
"The fifteen-day holiday starts today. Yang Jiawen said suddenly.
So, the two had to leave on motorcycles.
Now that the orchard has been bought, Lin Musen knows that the sooner he sprinkles special water into the orchard, the better.
He thought about it for a while, called Lu Haodong and asked him to buy it and see if there was a water truck in stock to buy, or to rent a water truck, and then drive the car to his backyard to get water, and then transport it to Lishan.
After listening to Lin Musen's call, Yang Jiawen directly shook the mobile phone in her hand and said:
"It seems that the water that has been brought all the way cannot be wasted. I asked the builders to build a water tower during the renovation of the house, and the large water tower stood in the orchard, so that the water from the water wheel could be directly connected.
By the way, do you want to make a drip irrigation system like this, so that you can save as much special water as possible and not pour water to other places?"
The current Lin Musen bought the orchard with the money that Lin Musen earned with the aura bottle.
It's not the same as Yujing Mango Orchard.
Yujing Mango Orchard was bought with money from his parents' plane crash.
Therefore, when Lin Musen began to establish the Yujing mango orchard, the biggest purpose was to return to the capital.
