Chu Jiaqiang was thinking about when to buy a big scissors back, it was really unsightly to cut with a knife, and it was laborious.

The next day, I went to his mountain with the second uncle to see that the second uncle's fruit forest was relatively simple, all of which were chestnut trees. They planted these trees six or seven years ago, and although they have not been managed, they have now grown into large trees.

There are still a lot of chestnuts hanging on it, but the quality is not very good. There are more than 1,700 inhabitants in total, which is quite large. At the beginning, the government said that for each acre, the subsidy would be 50 yuan, and the second uncle alone took the government's subsidy of 1,000 yuan.

"Second uncle, go back and let the second aunt come over, carry the basket over, and pick the chestnuts on it first." Chu Jiaqiang said suddenly.

"What's the use? If you like to eat, just pick some up and eat them. I was just about to tell you that the chestnut doesn't seem to have much to do, and it's going to be cut down and planted with peach trees? If you look at the peach trees behind the old house, not to mention the high yield and the price, it is still better than the peach tree. "The second uncle called Chu Jiaqiang over this time, and he was going to cut down these chestnut trees and plant promising fruit trees.

"Chop?" Chu Jiaqiang's eyes widened, these are all big trees for several years, as long as they are managed well this year, there will definitely be a bumper harvest next year, it would be a pity to cut them down. And chestnuts are not without a future, but chestnuts are not rare in the countryside, there are wild chestnuts in the mountains, Chu Jiaqiang remembers, when he first arrived at Quqi Mountain, almost the entire mountain there was chestnut and hawthorn trees.

"Hmmm! I wanted to do it some time ago, but I was busy harvesting peanuts and so on, so it has been delayed until now. The second uncle did not hesitate at all.

"Ahem! Second uncle, listen to me first. This chestnut can be sold for four to eight dollars a pound outside, are you sure you want to cut it? Chu Jiaqiang asked again.

"Hmmm! Chop...... What? What did you just say? Four to eight? The second uncle suddenly froze, staring at Chu Jiaqiang, and his breathing became a little short.

"Isn't it? Otherwise, how can I let you carry a basket to pick off these chestnuts first, no matter how you say it, you can collect five or six thousand catties. Although the quality is not good, at least three or four pieces can be wholesaled, right? In this way, it also looks like 20,000. It's a pity that it wasn't managed, otherwise there would be tens of thousands of catties of chestnuts close to 2,000 plants. Chu Jiaqiang was a pity in the end.

When the second uncle heard this, he was suddenly thundered, froze in place, and said in pain after half a sound: "Then haven't I lost 10,000 or 20,000 yuan in vain every year in the past few years?" Thinking of this fact, the second uncle couldn't stand it. One or two thousand a year, four years ago began to bear chestnuts, so calculated, that is sixty or seventy thousand, what is this concept?

"Wait, I'll be right there." The second uncle hurriedly ran home, and did not mention the matter of cutting down trees again.

The second uncle hurried home in a hurry, and met the old village chief on the way. The old village chief was strange, in his eyes, Chu Shengmin should be a very calm and cautious person, in his words, he is reliable, and his repeated statements to stop the Chu family's strong behavior show this.

"Seungmin, what's going on?"

At the mention of this matter, the flesh on Chu Shengmin's face twitched, and he said bitterly: "My twenty acres of mountain chestnuts, you should know about the village elder, right?" ”

"Oh? Got it! At the beginning, you were the most active in planting fruit trees, and you kid coveted government subsidies and was busy reclaiming the mountains for a long time. However, it is also worth it, you must know that the concept of 1,000 yuan seven years ago is equivalent to 10,000 yuan now. The old village chief suddenly smiled and said, Chu Shengmin's behavior was enjoyed by everyone for a long time.

"Alas! I'm confused! Today, I was going to cut down those chestnut trees and plant other fruit trees with Jiaqiang. Who knows that Jiaqiang said that the cheapest chestnuts on the outside cost three or four yuan a catty, and the fried sugar chestnuts are about ten yuan. You say, my chestnut tree started to bear chestnuts four years ago, but we don't know, and we throw away 10,000 or 20,000 yuan in vain every year. Chu Shengmin complained, his voice was full of sour taste.

The old village chief was also taken aback, doesn't this mean that he has not wanted sixty or seventy thousand yuan in the past four or five years?

"I won't tell you, I'll have to go back and get the baskets and take them off." Chu Shengmin hurried away.

The old village chief turned over the stormy waves again, and the fruit trees were really so promising? You must know that Chu Shengmin's chestnut trees have never been taken care of since they were planted, otherwise they would not have taken two or three years to bear chestnuts. But despite this, with an income of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a year, what kind of land is it so hard to cultivate?

He understood that this was another good opportunity to stimulate everyone, and immediately spread the news. Everyone was shocked and ran to watch and inquire one by one.

The second aunt also followed, carrying a long bamboo pole. Chu Jiaqiang took the bamboo pole and shouted, "Let's get out of the way first, don't let the chestnuts hit." ”

The chestnut is wrapped in a shell bucket with thorns on the surface, just like a hedgehog. When ripe, the shell buds will split. Although the person hit is not life-threatening, it is also very painful.

After Chu Jiaqiang knocked in front for a while, the second aunt and the others started to pick up the basket, and the people who came to watch also helped. Although there are many chestnut trees, the yield of chestnuts is very small, and it can't support many people, so it is finished in one morning.

Seeing that Chu Jiaqiang was free, someone asked: "Qiangzi, is this chestnut really that valuable?" He had to ask, he also planted chestnuts at the beginning, but it was only one-third of Chu Shengmin's. Still, that's a lot of thousands.

"Of course, this is still the lowest conservative estimate. There are also many kinds of chestnuts, and we are not the best of this kind, it is said that the best is the chestnut of Qinling, known as the chestnut township. But it is also one of the better ones in the south, and the price is not too bad. Chu Jiaqiang said.

When the man heard this, he didn't say a word, but took his daughter-in-law and went home. Others were envious, why didn't they grow chestnuts in the first place? Chestnuts can grow well even if they don't care about it.

"Second uncle, I will remove these buds at home in the afternoon, and prune them tomorrow! I'll get in touch and see if I can get the other party to drive over and buy it. By the way, who else in our village also planted chestnuts in the first place? Tell them to collect it quickly and sell it together. It's really not good, let's pay some freight and pull it out. Chu Jiaqiang said.

The second uncle nodded immediately, now this large piece of chestnut trees is a treasure to him, and he is wondering how to serve them well this year.

The old village chief immediately remembered that there was another person in the village who also planted chestnuts, and that was Widow Yang. The two of them also planted a lot back then, only under Chu Shengmin. However, the year after planting the fruit trees, tragedy struck when her husband had an accident outside. Now Widow Yang is not at home, so she and her daughter went to see the house again in the morning.
