Chapter 70 Collective Reclamation
A meeting is a complete meeting, and a meeting is a successful meeting.
However, after Liu Yi dismissed the meeting, he gathered everyone together, "Don't panic, I will ask you for a favor later." In this way, now I have contacted the fruit trees, but the land on our side is all barren, do you take care of all these wastelands and dig tree pits so that the transplanted fruit trees can be cultivated? ”
As soon as Liu Yi finished speaking, no one took the initiative to speak, and the scene was a little cold for a while.
Liu Yi thought about it and immediately reflected, "I forgot to tell you, I want everyone to bring their own tools, and I will make a statement here for the rest, as long as I work 100 yuan a day, I will settle it on the same day, and there is no ambiguity." ”
"Then count me in, I'll come." A villager took the lead in speaking, now is the free season, idle is also idle, can find 100 yuan a day is difficult to earn even if you work outside, let alone at the door of the house so convenient.
"I'll do it too."
"I'll do it too."
"My whole family is coming." As soon as the villagers saw that it was profitable, they played some tricks.
"Come on, except for the two of you, your father has no labor to supervise the work, and the son is here to stand guard?" Before Liu Yi could speak, another villager got into a fight with him.
"Okay, we still have to ensure the ability to work in advance, otherwise it is not good for the elderly to have an accident, isn't it?" Liu Yi summed it up after the most reluctance.
The number of people in the last few was cleared, and as soon as Liu Yi said the money, the effect came out. There are a total of 65 people who are ready to come to open up the wasteland and dig tree pits, and there are actually more people who have signed up, but Liu Yi still eliminated some, no matter how old Liu Yi greets him in advance, he still signs up, and Liu Yi can only screen them out mercilessly.
said that he would gather next to Liu Yi's hometown at half past eight the next day, and Liu Yi planned to start cleaning and digging tree pits near his house, and it would not be long before 6 or 70 people went all out to reclaim the land.
The next day, it was dark, and Liu Yi had to get up. Hurry to the market to buy the ingredients that the construction team in my hometown ate at noon and send them back to my aunt. My mother went back to the mountain city, which was shipped there recently, and she won't be back until tomorrow.
It is indeed very troublesome to handle these things by one person when there is no car, but fortunately, Liu Yi is now convenient to go everywhere since he bought a car. said that he would gather at half past eight o'clock, and when Liu Yi finished these things, he would go to the meeting place 10 minutes earlier than required.
couldn't wait long, 65 people arrived one after another, and Liu Yi saw that he was too old and was in his early 60s, all of whom had the necessary guys to dig tree pits in the wasteland.
Liu Yi went back yesterday and went to the Internet to check that when the tree is transplanted, the roots must retain a certain amount of soil, and the entire roots of the tree cannot be exposed, which is to improve the survival probability of the tree.
So when Liu Yi went to dig fruit trees, he had to pay attention, and the same was true for digging tree pits here. The pit should not be too small, otherwise the roots of the fruit trees wrapped in soil will not be able to be placed in the pit, and if it is too shallow, the roots of the transplanted fruit trees will be higher than the original ground.
People may have noticed it in the city, especially the street trees on both sides of the road, where the tree pits are dug very shallowly in some places, and the trees fall down in a strong wind or even a heavy rain. So what is the role of transplantation in the past?
This time, Liu Yi planted his own fruit trees, and he definitely couldn't lie to himself and do those tofu scum projects.
This time, Liu Yi's requirement for digging a tree pit was that the depth of the tree pit must reach 1.5 meters. The size of the tree pit is 80 cm x 80 cm, so I think it can fit the transplanted fruit trees.
The spacing of fruit trees is generally about 15-18 meters for citrus fruit trees, but Liu Yi thought to himself that the "Shennong Jing" in his hand has a "special fertilizer" specifically for the growth of trees. According to the maximum and longest distance of citrus, a tree pit of 18 meters is counted.
The orchards established this time are basically one piece of succession, and only a few families in this villager group have their own plans, and they have not joined Liu Yi's rural economic cooperative. But the land of those few families still has little impact on the orchard developed on this entire hillside!
At first, the villagers were all swarming and digging tree pits in an orderly manner. Liu Yi looked at how it would go on like this, and he calculated in his heart that if he dug a tree pit every 18 meters of land, he could dig about 37,000 tree pits.
Now Liu Yi must do a good job of division of labor with these people who come, otherwise after completing the excavation of the tree pit, the daylilies will be cold.
Calling everyone, Liu Yi said directly, "I think it is still a division of labor, I arrange for 5 people who are a little older to clear the weeds in the land, and the remaining 60 people dig a tree pit by themselves, take a ruler to measure it, and you can dig it 18 meters before and after, left and right, how do you think?" ”
"Dig it alone? Can you do it? "The villager probably wanted everyone to do things together and talk about the Longmen Formation, but Liu Yi's words dashed his hopes.
"Why not, I think this tree pit is very simple, these lands were originally crop fields, but now the soil clods have not yet solidified, they are all loose. Dig a tree pit in a maximum of ten minutes. "Liu Yi didn't be polite to them, time waits for no one.
"Then let's try it, if it works, we have no opinion." Seeing that Liu Yi could not be convinced, a villager took the lead in agreeing.
Liu Yi didn't want to make things stiff, "In this way, I have stipulated with you that there are 6 tree pits in an hour, and those 8 hours are 48 tree pits." No matter when you finish the 48 tree pits, of course, if you meet the requirements, then you can go back at any time. ”
Seeing that the goal set by Liu Yi for them was not very difficult to complete, everyone was full of enthusiasm and prepared to go home early.
Of course, Liu Yi still has abacus, and he doesn't wait for them to disperse, "After you finish the day's tasks, you can continue to do it, as long as a tree pit meets the requirements of 2 yuan." ”
Now everyone was even more energetic, and a villager with a fast head said directly, "Then can I bring all the family members?" ”
Liu Yi hadn't thought of this yet, and when he heard what he said, the attention was not bad, so he also agreed, "Don't come back when you're old, or the body is the most important, in the future, this orchard will be built, as long as it is operated normally, I am afraid that I will not be able to make money?" ”
"Okay, I'll call my daughter-in-law over, what else can she do at home now besides playing mahjong, even if you dig a few fewer tree pits a day, it will cost dozens of yuan."
"Then I'll call my daughter-in-law too." Another villager also thinks that it is a good thing to be able to earn more money, so why not do it!
"Okay, I don't care about food here at noon, and people will be called by then, so you won't eat at noon?" Liu Yi saw that each of them took out their mobile phones to dial the number at home, told Liu Yi about the new regulations, and hurriedly dug a tree pit.
"Having money can really make ghosts grind" Liu Yi thought, not to belittle these villagers, the countryside is indeed used to being poor. If it's in the city, no one will take over it.
The morning was naturally busy, but almost everyone's face was bright, and Liu Yi estimated that they could dig two tree pits every 10 minutes. When the grass is turned over, the soil underneath is all soft, so the speed is quite fast.
There was only one unlucky villager in it who looked at the others and smiled, his face was depressed, at first he was about the same speed as these villagers. But unlucky, there was a stone under one of the tree pits he dug, which was stuck in it.
Later, Liu Yi and him used tools to break the stone from the middle and lift it out separately. When all this is done, it is natural to lag behind others a lot.
At noon, everyone went back to their respective homes, but the scene in the afternoon scared Liu Yi a lot. Just like a villager said yesterday, the whole family came, and there was no difference between the old and the young. completely took what Liu Yi said as a deaf ear.
Liu Yi wanted to reason with him in the past, but he didn't speak yet. The villager said, "Liu Yi, I didn't call my old man today, he said it himself, and he came to see the big scene of the original labor." ”
Although the turbulent years in China made ordinary people suffer a lot, the honest and simple farmers are still full of nostalgia for the life they had lived hard, and it may be a memory that they will never erase for the rest of their lives.
Liu Yi had no choice, so he had to arrange for the elderly not to dig tree pits and do some easy things such as hoeing.
The scene is grand, and the results are brilliant. With Liu Yi proudly patting his chest and promising to pay cash, everyone's enthusiasm has never diminished, and even they themselves are a little unimaginable after the day is getting late.
Originally, Liu Yi stipulated that one person digging 48 tree pits a day would be considered to complete the task, but now the data in front of Liu Yi is quite gorgeous. Excluding the tree pit dug by the man in the morning, the three members of his family dug 148 tree pits in the afternoon, a total of 172 tree pits.
Moreover, these tree pits were inspected by an elderly person from another family, and most of them met the requirements.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening, at the second brother's house on the side of the highway, when the family got 344 yuan from Liu Yi's hand, it was envious of other villagers.
Other families are not bad, and every household has exceeded today's task. After the most reluctant, Liu Yi counted that a total of 7,366 tree pits were dug today. Liu Yi had to spend 14,732 yuan.
Fortunately, Liu Yi also came prepared today, and the cash was put in the car. In the countryside, there is no need to worry about anyone breaking the car, or smashing the window glass to steal money from the car.
The money was paid according to his promise, and Liu Yi was extremely excited. It is expected that it will take 10 days to dig the tree pit, and according to today's momentum, it will definitely be done within 5 days.
But just when Liu Yi was overjoyed, I don't know if Lu Dao confirmed the old saying, "Happiness begets sadness." ”
A few phone ringtones, Liu Yi took out the phone, pressed the connect button and put the phone to his ear, and suddenly he was originally sitting, rubbed up, and shouted in his mouth, "What, how can this thing be like this?" ”
