Chapter 387: Unconvincing
I can grow rice and vegetables, but I have never planted watermelons, which is really not good. ”
Cheng Wenlian frowned, "Planting watermelons will be next year, and besides, watermelons are not expensive, so the land hall can't make a lot of money a year by planting melons." ”
"Who said it was planted in the summer?" An Xia looked at Cheng Wenlian and smiled slightly.
Everyone is looking at Anxia, at this time there are very few out-of-season vegetables and fruits, maybe the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and state farms will plant a little, these things are almost not sold in the market, all sent to the homes of leaders at all levels, and only leaders can taste it.
Anxia remembered that in the previous life, Grandpa Lu's family saw a big watermelon in winter, or a seedless melon, listening to Grandpa Lu, this watermelon was sent by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and it was impossible to buy it on the market, and the watermelon was particularly sweet after cutting, although with the development of science and technology, after more than ten years, the seedless melon is not a rare thing, but now in the nineties, it is absolutely rare in the market.
Who has ever seen a watermelon in winter? No!
Who has ever seen a watermelon without seeds? Nor did it!
"I want my fourth uncle to grow watermelons now, just in time for the Chinese New Year to hit the market, and I want him to plant the latest variety, seedless melons."
"Seedless melon?" Cheng Wenlian read suspiciously, unable to figure out what it was.
"It's a seedless watermelon."
"What? Watermelon without seeds? ”
Grandpa Cheng couldn't help but ask: "How can I keep the seeds of the watermelon without seeds, then how did this melon come out, this is impossible!" ”
"Grandpa Cheng, this is a new variety specially cultivated, that is, there are no seeds, so it is convenient to eat, and farmers can't keep seeds, so they can only buy watermelon seedlings that have been cultivated in the future."
"Well, that's too good at business." Grandpa Cheng couldn't help but be surprised.
"Grandpa, this is the same as buying high-yield seeds, so let's grow our own rice, and we won't keep our own seeds."
Everyone pondered for a while, and they all thought that this thing was really strange, and when they ate watermelon in winter, they didn't have to spit out the seeds of watermelon.
"This watermelon is grown, if it is put on the market before the Chinese New Year, who doesn't want to taste it if the family conditions are good. And whether it is to go to relatives or entertain guests, if you send a watermelon, how long the face, this thing is a rare thing in winter, and when the time comes, how much do you say this watermelon will sell for a pound? ”
"Xia Xia, tell me quickly, why do you always like to hang people's appetites!" Cheng Wenlian looked at Anxia.
"One dollar and one pound, absolutely no problem."
"What, a dollar and a catty, how is this possible, it's too expensive." Cheng Wenlian and Grandpa Cheng shook their heads at the same time.
"Yes, Xia Xia, when the watermelon was cheap in the summer, it was only five cents, and now you want to sell it for a pound, what if you can't sell it?"
An Xia saw that the fourth uncle's train of thought had already followed her, and smiled with satisfaction.
"Fourth uncle, we are reluctant, but some people are willing to buy, this kind of seedless melon is generally only a dozen catties, a pound of watermelon is only a dozen yuan, for the city people are willing to spend twelve yuan to buy such a small bottle of alabaster, a dozen yuan to buy such a big watermelon, do you think they can be reluctant.
And I always say that one dollar is cheap, this thing is not available on the market now, I can sell it for three yuan. ”
"This, this ......"
An Jiaye can't imagine it, three yuan a pound of watermelon, he is reluctant to buy it anyway, this is more expensive than meat.
"Is this okay?" Cheng Wenlian was moved.
"Okay, let's try. Fourth uncle, don't plant your stubble of rice when it's harvested, I'll ask someone if there are any acquaintances in the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, can you buy watermelon seedlings, and then people will definitely give us technical training, just let Kai Kai go, Kai Kai is smart and flexible, and he will definitely learn it.
When it's cold, we'll deduct the greenhouse, I'll pay for the money, and the fourth uncle will wait for you to make money, and I'll pay dividends. ”
An Xia deliberately said this, she was afraid that the fourth uncle would not ask for her own money.
"No, I'll pay for it, if it really happens, it can be promoted in the village."
Cheng Wenlian was hooked by this news, and now he is more energetic than An Xia.
"Yes, but there is an economic law for cash crops, the supply is less than the demand, the things can be sold expensive, the supply exceeds the demand, the things can only be sold cheaply, and if the surrounding villages start to grow watermelons, why will the village have to think of a new way to make money."
"Look at the excitement you two said, you haven't gotten a watermelon yet, and you want to think of a new way to make money, you think this is a play house. This watermelon is available with a mouth, and if it is really there, can it be planted well? Can it be sold at a high price, otherwise the greenhouse will be deducted for a few months, the shed is money, and it will cost a lot of money to burn charcoal inside. ”
Cheng Dezhong felt that these two children had never farmed honestly, and it was not good to be whimsical, so what should I do if I lose money when the time comes.
"Grandpa Cheng, science and technology change life, science and technology is the primary productive force, crops and cash crops are not as good as cash crops to make money, cash crops do take risks, but we choose watermelon, it is from the most important thing to eat, everyone has to eat, rich people want to eat better, naturally willing to spend more money.
Moreover, there are now two or three hundred units with high salaries, and there are also university professors who take 1,000 yuan, so spending thirty or fifty yuan to buy a watermelon is really not a big deal, as long as it is grown, the market is not a problem. ”
"I still think this thing is inappropriate, it's too whimsical, no one has ever planted watermelons, what if I lose money? Grow rice honestly, when the country collects it, you can make money in any way, we have to be down-to-earth, don't always think about getting rich, how many people have dreamed of getting rich in the past, and in the end they have lost everything. ”
An Jiaye didn't dare to try, listening to the old man Cheng Dezhong's words, he also felt that what the old man said was reasonable, Cheng Dezhong was a person in the village who had seen the world, he could see farther than anyone else, and he walked steadily.
"Xia Xia, since we are farmers, we will farm the land in a down-to-earth manner, and we will live a good life, which will really make a lot of money, in case the country cracks down on speculation."
An Xia sighed tangledly, "Uncle, if I want to grow watermelons, I will try it, if I plant it well, I will have the tuition fee for college in the future, you should try it for me, I will pay for it." ”
"It's not a matter of money, besides, how can I ask for your money, you don't make money, just keep a little in your own hands, and be admitted to the university for your fourth uncle."
"Admitted to college, grandpa will provide for you." Cheng Dezhong also said immediately.
Anxia was completely defeated by these two old men, it seems that she can't convince them today, wait for her to go to Grandpa Lu, ask Grandpa Lu if he knows anyone from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and let these technical experts come to educate them on the spot.
Cheng Wenlian did not give up, "Grandpa, why can't you try, now the country has begun to shout the slogan of market economy, I held a meeting today The mayor also said that as long as we can find someone to invest in the village, whether it is to build a factory or do business, the legal compliance superiors will support it." ”
Old and new ideas collide in this moment.
