Chapter 160: The Farm < for the Seventh Madman" helmsman added
"This kind of farm-grown food tastes different. { with } { dream } ั {suimะตng] [lฤ} and the ones bought in the market are not at the same grade at all, which makes people's appetite much better. โ
The chickens are the real free-range chickens in the fruit forest here, Zhang Chu When they played cards, the boss personally caught two chickens and killed them, as well as a sheep, which was also a free-range sheep here.
The fish and shrimp were fished out of the nearby fish pond, and the water from this fish pond was brought from the floodway on the other side of the Songshan Lake Reservoir.
The rest of the vegetables are from the farm here, as well as some pickled sausages and bacon. The cooking techniques are relatively simple, and most of them are made from the original flavor of the ingredients.
"Nowadays, people put too much thought into what they eat, and the things they buy in the market are exaggerated, and they generally don't dare to eat much. I think that in the future, this kind of farm-like place will have more development prospects, and in the future, there will be a lot of momentum for planting in my hometown. โ
The one who spoke was the president of the hometown association, surnamed Lei. This man is a legend for the people of the Fellow Townspeople's Association. Self-made, he has a big reputation here, much higher than Mr. Liu's net worth, and he is also very righteous and enthusiastic.
It is said that he often donates money to his hometown, and has also provided financial assistance to some poor students in his hometown. These Zhang Chu listened to old nonsense, he had never seen it himself, you must know that he was once a poor student.
Chairman Lei is also engaged in a different industry, he started in real estate, and now he still has a lot of properties in his hands. He can be the president, in addition to his net worth, his prestige and age are enough, and this thing pays attention to this.
Now it seems that people's vision is also very good. At this time, people who say that farming and farming are engaged in planting and breeding in their hometown, and there is no vision to see it?
You must know that at this time, you still have to pay public grain, and many people would rather go to work outside than farm at home. Whoever wants to say that farming is profitable, it is estimated that the people in the family can spray him in the face.
This is relative to Zhang Chu's hometown, Zhang Chu has not investigated in other places, and he has no right to speak. The arable land in their hometown is limited, and the per capita is very small, so they really don't want to be rich by farming, that is in Mongolia.
"My family has contracted a large area of wasteland and reservoirs this year, and my parents have raised a lot of chickens and ducks at home. My mom couldn't be idle, so she had to go home after living here for a month, and then she was busy making these, and I heard that it was doing well. โ
After hearing this, Zhang Chu replied with a smile, he really has the intention of building a farm in the wasteland at home, and by the way, he will build a small villa. But now Zhang Chu doesn't have the heart to get that, the money is not enough! He doesn't want to go home to develop now.
"Xiao Chu's family has also contracted a reservoir and wasteland? This is good, let your family leave some chickens, ducks, fish and eggs for me during the Chinese New Year." When I came home at the end of last year, I went to the countryside several times to buy something, but it wasn't enough for me to bring here to eat. โ
Mr. Liu, who was on the side, replied with a smile after listening to Zhang Chu's words, he was really interested in these things. And he doesn't have any family in his hometown, so he doesn't have these, so he can only buy them elsewhere.
"The things at home are better than the outside, and our family will bring some back every year when we go back. I don't have it at home, so I can only buy it outside, and I can go directly to your house to buy it in the future, I remember that you still produce tea oil over there, right?"
After hearing this, the other people looked at Zhang Chu with a little interest, it was really difficult to buy tea oil and local products produced at home in recent years. Most people grow it at home and eat it themselves, and they don't sell much.
After all, there is only so much land, and the living conditions are much better than before. The people in the family are also very willing to eat, anyway, they are all home-grown things, which is much better than spending money to buy and eat.
"We have to see how many of them will be able to do by the end of the year. I don't have much tea oil in my house, and I can sell it for a few dozen catties at most every year, and the tea forest on the other side of the wasteland has just started now, and there is no output. โ
After listening to this, Zhang Chu explained that tea oil had already been bought for dozens of yuan a pound at this time. Because their family is not at home, they don't eat much tea oil at home, so some of them are sold, and other people can't eat it themselves.
"It's okay, just remember it. If you have it at home during the New Year, remember to call me, and then I will go to your house to pick up the goods, anyway, I have to go home every year for the New Year, and I will go back early. โ
Mr. Liu shook his hand after hearing this, he just made a reservation. If Zhang Chu has a lot of family, he can give priority to selling it to him, if not, there is no way, so he can only buy it elsewhere.
As soon as he said this, several other people were a little moved, and they asked Zhang Chu to make some reservations. They all came out earlier than Zhang Chu, and they have been mixing well outside these years, and their families have been brought outside.
It is difficult to eat authentic things grown at home, and it is usually bought from some fellow villagers or acquaintances. And these are generally not bought much, and sometimes they are faked.
If Zhang Chu's family has a lot, they are close to the water and get the first month, so they can give priority to buying some, and I believe that Zhang Chu will not fake it. This thing is not the same as before, and now it is not sold at all.
Zhang Chu didn't expect that he was just talking casually, but he first received a batch of orders for the wasteland contracted by his family, which was really an unexpected gain. I guess I want to know to my parents that they will be more motivated.
Zhang Chu, the wasteland at home, did not build any orchards according to his father's ideas, but first arranged to plant camellia trees, and then interplanted daylily and some Chinese herbs.
They produce camellia, daylily, and honeysuckle, and these things don't need to be taken care of much after they are planted. Zhang Chu couldn't believe his father, so he chose these things. In the past, these things were all fed by the sky and grew naturally.
Facts proved that Zhang Chu was right, fortunately, he thought of asking his family to hire someone to plant a field of camellia trees, and then interplanted honeysuckle and daylily.
Otherwise, during the first period of the year, his father would have tossed and lost his burden. And Zhang Chu is much easier to do this than planting fruit trees, and he doesn't have to worry about sales.
As for the maintenance of the reservoir, Zhang Chu didn't interfere much. His father didn't divide the reservoir into small areas, and there were not many fish fry stocked, and the reservoir was more used by him to raise chickens and ducks, and he didn't think about stocking fish in it.
In previous years, there were many people who were cheated on the reservoir, and Zhang Chu's father was not stupid, so he naturally would not be stupid to stockpile fish fry. That's a waste of money, anyway, this reservoir can catch some fish if it's not stocked.
And those small fish and shrimp, as long as you are willing to put your mind to it, you can get thousands of catties of dried fish and shrimp from it in a year. This is a lot of money, when Zhang Chu was a child, they used fishing nets to catch fish and shrimp in the reservoir and sell them, and they could earn a lot of money a year.
In this way, the money for contracting the reservoir is not in vain. However, adults rarely get those small fish and shrimp, which is too time-consuming. There is also a local saying in Zhang Chu's hometown, fishing for fish and shrimp does not make a fortune.
In fact, this is not true, at this time in their countryside, if they can spend some effort to do this, they can actually still make a lot of money.
The water fish outside cost dozens of yuan a catty, but the water fish in the countryside fell from a high price of more than 100 to hundreds when Zhang Chu was a child to dozens of yuan a catty, and now they have begun to rebound again.
Pure wild water fish for hundreds of dollars a catty, but they are generally not available and rarely sold. In addition to water fish, there are also wealth fish and yellow bone fish. These are relatively high-value fish, and they can still catch wild ones in Zhang Chu's house.
And those dried river shrimp and small fish are now dozens of dollars a catty. Based on the amount of fish that Zhang Chu caught when they were children, it is not difficult to spend some time to earn a hundred yuan a day.
Like a yellow bone fish, when Zhang Chu was in junior high school. In the summer, I went out with a bucket at noon, and went to the river in front of the village with my bare hands to touch it, and there was no problem at all in catching four or five catties of yellow bone fish.
The shrimp and small fish are carried in small nets, put some bait and press them with tiles, and collect the nets regularly by the fish pond in the reservoir in the morning and evening. I can get three or four pounds a day, but it doesn't weigh much after drying.
