After a good meal in the morning, Qingli looked at the warm weather outside and decided to cut a few Chinese cabbages and come back to make kimchi. When I came to the backyard, except for the old turtle and the two cows in the cowshed, the rest didn't know where to go.

Picking up the back basket and sickle in the corner, Qingli walked out of the back door and walked west along the path for about ten minutes, and you could see the farmland in the village.

The location of the Lotus Village, where Qingli's house is located, is very strange, if you look at it from the air, you will find that the Lotus Village is like a gourd, with a big belly. There are mountains on all sides, and the area in the belly of the gourd is the only flat land, which has been reclaimed by the villagers as fertile land. Most of the houses in the village are built along the hill, forming a straight line.

The entrance is a bluestone pavement, which I heard is hundreds of years old. On the side of the road is a river three or four meters wide, full of lotus flowers and green lotus leaves every spring, the water quality is very good, and you can see the fish and shrimp in the river.

Walking down the river and the house is the plain, it is estimated that there are more than 300 acres of fertile land, and the 10 acres of land of Qingli's family is in the middle. The rest is wasteland, because there is a shortage of manpower, modern machinery cannot be bought, and the villagers still use the old methods to plant.

I saw a few people in the field from a distance, and walked over, "Auntie, you all collect vegetables!" Hearing the sound, the people working in the field looked up, "It's Lili, it's good not to look at the cabbage bag, it's estimated that it will snow after a while, take advantage of today's good weather, collect it all, and you will also cut the cabbage?" Holding the sickle, Qingli quickly cut the cabbage one by one, "Yes, I plan to carry the cabbage back today, so that my grandfather will not have to worry about it again when he comes back." "Hehe, Lili, what are you going to do with this cabbage?" Seeing the cabbage in the field, Liu Zhenan was a little worried and wanted to hear Qingli's thoughts. "Me, how do you deal with kimchi?" Hearing Uncle Zhen'an's words, Qingli was also a little curious. "Hey, the cabbage every year is kept for the family to eat, and the rest of the pickled is fed to the pigs. You say that this thing is not worth anything, and you don't know what to plant if you don't plant it. "Yes, Lili, tell me, you have read a lot of books, you have been to the provincial capital, and you know a lot of people, you can tell us what to plant." The construction cabbage in the distance was not cut, and he walked directly with a sickle.

Hearing the villagers' questions, Qingli thought about it carefully: Most of the crops grown in the village are ordinary crops and are worthless. Ordinary fruits such as oranges and pears are also common in the market, and strawberries and the like are shipped from other places at high prices, and some people in the village have never seen them, and the prices are too expensive. Thinking of strawberries, Qingli recalled that there was really no one in S City who planted strawberries. Ah, strawberries, yes, you can plant this, clench your fist and look up, "Plant strawberries." "Strawberries?" "What's that?" "Can you make money?" You say it to me. "What's the noise, Lili, you say." I don't know when the village chief came, but he suddenly made a noise and startled the big guy.

Looking at the villagers who had quieted down, Qingli thought for a while and said: I found that no one in our city has grown strawberries yet, strawberries are fruits with high nutritional value, beautiful growth, and are deeply loved by men, women and children. The main thing is that it's also beautiful for its price. I took a look and saw that our land here is fertile, and there is another advantage over other places, that is, the land in our village is contiguous and easy to take care of. Unlike some places, where the area of cultivation is small. If everyone wants to plant, I suggest that you can start now, it's November, let's hurry up, and it will be available in March and April next year at the latest in May or June. However, the upfront investment is a bit large. "What inputs are needed?" Everyone was obviously very interested, and Uncle Zhen'an took the lead in asking questions, and the people next to him were nodding. "Greenhouses, seedlings or seeds, at present, the greenhouses we can choose are film greenhouses, the cost of such greenhouses is relatively cheap, there are bamboo mountains, and the money is film. You can use straw and braziers to keep warm, and the temperature must be controlled between 18 and 25 degrees, and nothing else is a big problem. "Do you plant or not?" Hearing Uncle Jian's question, Qingli was stunned for a moment before he spoke, "Uncle, I don't plant, I don't have so much time, and now I soak in the succulent shed every day, and I'm even busier in the spring." When the spring flowers bloom, the employees of Brother Chen's company will come to us to play, and everyone's strawberries don't have to worry about not being sold. Hearing Qingli say this, the ground fell silent for a while, only the sound of the wind blowing.

After a while, suddenly Su Jianshe and Liu Zhenan spoke at the same time: I want to plant glass, what do you think? yes, I want to plant too.

Qingli didn't expect these two people to have such courage, and decided to plant strawberries just by their own words. Qingli smiled, "Uncle, I really think that there is money to be made by planting strawberries, it's not that my stall is too big, I want to plant it." If you really decide to plant, I will help you set the seedlings, and I can also help with the later sales. "Well, we've planted it, you have to help us." Seeing Su Jianshe and Liu Zhenan's broken faces, Qingli smiled, "Then you have to help, a single branch is not spring, a hundred schools of thought are blooming in spring, I still expect you to take the lead!" I'll call when I go back, and I'll be there in about two days, and you have to do a good job of draining the canal first, because the strawberries are afraid of flooding. The greenhouse is built according to my home, but it doesn't need to be so high, each height is about 1.5, no problem! Su Jianshe and Liu Zhenan thought about it and felt that it was not a big problem, "No problem, finish harvesting the cabbage today and start making it tomorrow." “

Su Jianshe and Liu Zhenan, who decided to plant strawberries after seeing three or two sentences, the rest of the villagers looked at them like crazy people, only the village chief seemed very calm. When everyone collected the cabbage and went back in the evening, Lotus Village was boiling, and everyone couldn't believe that Su Jianshe and Liu Zhenan planned to grow strawberries without planting crops.

The neighbors began to visit the door and inquire about the situation. The two parties who decided to plant strawberries were not opposed by their families, but Qingli was criticized by her grandfather.

In the living room, Qingli stood helplessly, and the old man stopped smoking, so he circled around the living room with his hands behind his back, turned around to see Qingli, and then turned around to look at Qingli. Staring at the old man's Qingxi, Doudou, and Snowball, mosquito coils have begun to appear in their eyes. "Grandpa, can you stop turning? Where I make you angry, you can beat me and scold me, just don't sulk and make your body angry. “

Pointing his finger at the clear glass, the old man sighed: I don't say anything if you say that you are tossing around yourself, you earn the money, I don't care how you want to spend it, as long as you are happy, it doesn't matter whether you make or lose. But what strawberries do you let Jianshe and Zhen'an plant, isn't this nonsense? You know it's going to sell? Yes, although there is no slippery head in farming, it is risky to grow strawberries, don't forget that your onion (construction father) grandfather is still a paralyzed person, what if you lose it to let their family? After listening to the old man's lesson, Qingli thought seriously and said, "Grandpa, do you think strawberries are delicious?" ”

Hearing the question of whether the strawberries are good or not, grandpa blushed, remembering that the strawberries taken out by Qingli last time were eaten by himself, and he had a falling out with a few at home, but Qingli took out a few catties before it was settled. "Delicious," the old man replied a little depressed.

Seeing her grandfather's blushing face, Qingli also remembered what happened last time, and couldn't help but smile, "Then you have money, you love to eat, and your family loves to eat, will you buy it?" There are many rich people in the city, you are worried that the strawberries will not be sold, as long as the strawberries are delicious, the early sales channels are opened, and there is no need to come forward yourself, there will be fruit merchants to cooperate. Of course, I will help to enter the market in the early stage, and I must not let Uncle Construction do their work in vain. ”

After listening to Qingli's words, grandpa thought about it carefully, and found that the problems he was worried about had been solved by Qingli, and it was not good to keep a straight face anymore, and looked at Qingli with a smile, "What are you still standing there for?" Come and sit! Seeing that grandpa smiled, Qingxi, who had been quiet, rushed over, "Hello sister, grandpa doesn't scold." ”

Looking at Qingxi who was blinking her long eyelashes, Qingli hugged her over, "Xixi is so cute, grandpa didn't scold my sister!" Qingxi looked at her sister shyly, and then looked at her grandfather and smiled. "Grandpa, I spent so much money, don't you worry about me really getting lost?" Remembering what his grandfather said he didn't care about whether he lost or earned, Qingli couldn't help but ask.

Grandpa lit a cigarette, looked at his granddaughter and grandson next to him, and said seriously: "Lili, you remember, there are many ways to use money, and there are few ways to use it, and there are more than enough than the top, how do you know that no one is poorer than you when you feel poor?" When we have no worries about food and clothing, how many people in the country are still fighting for food and clothing. Life does not bring death and does not bring away, people's hearts are not satisfied, but to be a man with a clear conscience, you can't harm the interests of others to satisfy your own selfish desires. "I understand grandpa, I will remember what you said." Qingli nodded seriously, and Qingxi's ignorant listener also nodded.

Grunt - grunt - what's the sound? The two nodding people looked at the old man's stomach together, and were stared at by the two children, Rao is old man couldn't hold back after living for decades, "Look at what, you don't look at what time it is, and you don't go to cook yet." “

Ah... Look at the wall clock in the living room, it's seven o'clock, Qingli put down his shyness and jumped up and ran to the kitchen, "Grandpa, you guys wait, you can eat soon." “
