Chapter Twenty-Six: Transformation of Barren Mountains

Bald Mountain was burned, and Tian Fei originally planned to plant autumn corn directly on it. Then, after the harvest of this autumn maize, the manure is applied on the spot, and chestnut trees and grape seedlings are planted the following year. But after walking around Bald Mountain, I found that my thinking was too simple.

The burned Bald Mountain is not as flat as expected, and the slope is not completely gentle. And the ground is hard after burning, and the roots of the shrubs and bamboos are still tightly rooted in the soil.

If you just plant corn this year and then leave it alone, maybe you can plant it like this. After arriving at this mountain, it was Tian Fei's for fifty years, so Tian Fei wanted to seriously transform it.

As soon as he thought of transforming the mountain, Tian Fei had the appearance of terraced fields in his mind. Tian Fei has been to Xiangxi before, and the first time I saw the terraced fields, I felt very beautiful, and then I felt very practical. Tian Fei admired the wisdom of the locals.

Although we don't need terraces to grow food, we can transform them into terraced soil. It is also from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.

Transforming into terraced soil has many functions. After the transformation, the water storage capacity of the mountain is improved, and the demand for irrigation can be reduced. After the transformation, it is more convenient and faster when planting or harvesting, and it is also conducive to management; In addition, their own pig farms will continue to expand in the future, which can only encroach on the fruit forest land, and the transformed fruit forest land can be easily used to lay the foundation.

……

At the beginning, Tian Fei's plan was to directly invite all the idle laborers in the village to help, and how could there be thirty or forty people to work at a salary of 30 yuan a day. But if it is a mountain transformation, the progress of this point is too slow, and when the transformation is completed, autumn will come. Don't even think about planting autumn corn again. So I had to ask an excavator to do it.

Tian Fei planned to contact Master Li's excavator who repaired the road for him last time.

If you want to do it, Tian Fei picked up the phone and dialed Master Li.

"Toot, toot, toot......"

"Hey", as soon as the phone was connected, Tian Fei said: "Master Li, I'm Tian Fei, remember?" ”

"Remember, Boss Tian, I've only been building a road for you for a few days, how can I forget, you are my God of Wealth!" Master Li smiled, "What, does Boss Tian have a road to repair again?" "I've started looking for business.

Tian Fei didn't hide it, and said directly: "It's true that there is a business, but it's not a road repair." It is a mountain transformation, shoveling the land, the amount of work is relatively large, and the time is a bit tight. Do you want to do it again? ”

", I'll definitely do it, I just have free time now, I'll go directly to your village, let's talk." I'll be here after ten minutes on a motorcycle. Master Li said happily.

"You don't have to go to my house, you can come directly to the foot of the mountain, I'll wait for you here." Tian Fei thought about it, and it was more appropriate for such a project to be interviewed.

……

About 20 minutes later, Tian Fei saw Master Li of the excavator coming over on a motorcycle. As soon as he stopped the car, Master Li said in a hurry: "Boss Tian, you are really getting bigger and bigger, you can rest assured that you can give me a job, you can see the quality of Lao Li."

"Well, there's no way. I'm a fat man with a swollen face", Tian Fei cried poorly.

……

The two of them walked up the mountain from the foot of the mountain, after all, Master Li also had to assess the working environment.

"Boss Tian, how are you going to transform it?" Master Li asked first.

"I don't know if Master Li has seen the terraced fields in the Yunnan-Guizhou Mountains, I just plan to build like that."

"You don't know much at this age, the terraced fields are only found in the Yunnan-Guizhou Mountains, in fact, we also have a lot of terraced terraces here, but they are not as large as the Yunnan-Guizhou side. In the past, when we were engaged in collective reclamation of barren mountains, we also opened them into terraced soil. It's just that these mountains are too luxuriant, and no one cares for them, so you can't see it for a while. Master Li explained.

Tian Fei thought about it carefully, as if his own tea tree mountain was indeed like this. It turned out that what he thought was a rare thing had existed in his hometown decades ago, and Tian Fei felt a little blushing.

"Now that you have understanding, it's easier to communicate with you."

Tian Fei continued: "I plan to build both the Bald Mountain and the Shanshu Mountain after the trees have been cut down into terraces, and each layer should be at least eight meters wide. "Tian Fei has to consider rebuilding the pigsty in the future.

"According to me, how many acres can your excavator transform in a day?" Tian Fei asked again.

Master Li thought for a while and replied, "According to your requirements, you can transform one acre in about two hours, and about six acres per day." ”

"It's too slow, I'm going to finish it in a week." Tian Fei calculated that the sowing period of autumn corn may be still a week.

"Can you get some more friends to come along?" Tian Fei suggested.

"According to your schedule, I need at least eight machines to finish, I want to think about it, you wait a minute, I'll make a few calls to ask." Master Li said and started talking on the phone.

About half an hour later, Master Li made a big phone call. Then he walked over and said to Tian Fei: "I can find someone for you, but you have to negotiate the price yourself." ”

Tian Fei really thinks about people he doesn't know, it's too troublesome to talk about them one by one, there are still many things, and he has new ideas.

"Master Li, if you see if this will work, I will contract it to you, you and them will divide the labor, and I will give you the money at that time, and then you will also be responsible for their wages." Tian Fei said.

This is a good suggestion for both parties, Tian Fei saved trouble, but Master Li got rights and interests.

In the end, Tian Fei and Master Li negotiated that the transformation of the barren mountain would be contracted to Master Li, and Master Li would follow Tian Fei's requirements and complete the transformation within seven days, no matter how many cars Master Li invited to come over and do it. Bald Mountain and cedar forests have a total of 330 acres, 80 yuan per mu, and Tian Fei has to pay Master Li a total of 26,400 yuan. After the mountain renovation is completed, 10,000 cash will be given, and the rest will be paid off before the year. Then Master Li is also responsible for repairing the road under the cedar forest to Shuanglin Bay.

Originally, Tian Fei still wanted to owe all the wages first, but in the end, he only owed part of the arrears. In addition, diesel money Tianfei has to pay separately.

……

Early the next morning, eight excavators and one bulldozer arrived at the foot of Bald Mountain. Such a big scene suddenly attracted the whole village to watch, and everyone watched from the bottom of the mountain.

As a firecracker rang out, everyone went to work.

Because the mountain is gentle, everyone decided to go down the mountain from the top of the mountain after discussion, so that it is labor-saving and fast.

First an excavator dug up the hill, then a bulldozer followed, and in less than a moment a road was built to the top of the mountain. Then all the excavators went to the top of the hill and distributed evenly on the contour line, starting to transform the gentle slope into a horizontal terrace. Peel it from top to bottom like peeling an onion.

In this way, the blackened mountain began to show its original muddy yellow.
