Chapter 14 Planting Fruit Trees and Digging Fish Ponds!

When he got home, the driver helped move everything in and left, Li Xiuyuan closed the door, carried the fish into the space, and put the more than 20 carp into the space pond. As the space grew larger again, the waterhole in the space also increased again, and there was already a small lake.

More than 20 carp were put in, and it didn't look crowded at all. Entering the water, the carp, which originally seemed a little sickly, immediately became energetic under the nourishment of the space water, swimming happily in the water, and jumping out of the water from time to time, obviously very excited.

Out of the space, Li Xiuyuan came to the second uncle's house again, as soon as he saw Li Xiuyuan enter the door, the second uncle immediately stood up enthusiastically, and said with concern: "Xiuyuan, come back for half a month, live still get used to it, if there is anything missing at home, come to the second uncle's house to get it, don't be polite to the second uncle." ”

Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and said, "Second uncle, I also grew up in the village, so delicate." I'm here today because I want my second uncle to help me with something."

"Anything, as long as the second uncle can do it, it's easy to say. The second uncle said without the slightest hesitation. Although Li Xiuyuan is a child picked up by his uncle, he has grown up watching it since he was a child, and Li Xiuyuan has been well-behaved and obedient since he was a child, he is very smart, and his mouth is sweet, he is very likable, and in the past few years, he has long regarded Li Xiuyuan as his own nephew.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Second uncle, I want to plant some fruit trees in the yard, and I want you to call some people to help." I don't know about wages or anything, you just talk to them, you can tell me when you've negotiated!"

"Xiuyuan, what are you doing planting fruit trees? This thing is not very high in our place, there is no professional technology, it is difficult to grow fruits, and you don't have the energy to take care of it!" the second uncle asked in surprise, and then persuaded.

"Second uncle, don't worry! I understand the technique you said, and I don't plan to go out in the future, just stay in the village, and have time to take care of the fruit trees!"

"What are you talking about?" The second uncle shouted, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and jumped up all of a sudden, and looked at Li Xiuyuan with a slash on his head and face: "Are you stupid to study? You are the only famous college student in our village, how could you want to come back to farm." Your grandfather is fortunate to have worked hard for you to study, but he didn't let you come back to farm after you finished your studies!"

"You kid tell the second uncle honestly, did you cause something outside? To be honest, although your second uncle has no ability, he still has some savings over the years, if it is not enough, the second uncle is trying to find a way for you!"

After counting for a long time, the second uncle continued to care. In his mind, Li Xiuyuan must have committed an accident outside, otherwise how could a good graduate of a prestigious university be willing to run back to the countryside to farm. Don't you see that today's young people would rather go outside to work than farm at home?

It's not that they want to leave their hometown, it's really that there is no future in farming, and they can't make a few dollars all year round.

"Second uncle, where do you want to go? Do I look like a criminal? I studied genetic cultivation technology in college, and it has good results on crops. I plan to open an agricultural company in the township, but it's much better than going out to help others work!" Li Xiuyuan smiled bitterly and quickly explained.

However, he said it badly, but the second uncle just didn't believe it, and in the end, in desperation, Li Xiuyuan took him to see the vegetables he had just transplanted from the space!

After seeing with his own eyes the vegetables in Li Xiuyuan's yard that are growing gratifyingly and are better than all the people in the village, the second uncle finally believed it, and a pleased smile appeared on his dark face: "You kid, the book is not read in vain, this vegetable is better than those who use pesticides and fertilizers!

The second uncle's movements were very fast, and it only took more than half an hour to bring ten middle-aged men to Li Xiuyuan's house. Li Xiuyuan, one of the ten middle-aged men, didn't know any of them, and after introduction, Li Xiuyuan knew that they were from Hongjia Village. Hongjia Village is still in Lijia Village, and there are still about two kilometers to go along the country road!

"Xiuyuan, I have agreed with them about the salary, including food and housing, one hundred and four a day per person, what do you think. The second uncle said to Li Xiuyuan.

"Second uncle, you can do it. Li Xiuyuan said, turned around and went into the house and took a purple cloud plug that he bought back in the morning and gave it to the second uncle, and asked the second uncle to distribute it to everyone to smoke first.

Several middle-aged men were a little embarrassed, and hurriedly excused themselves: "I said that I was one hundred and four a day, and I was taking this cigarette, how could I ......?"

There are more than 90 Ziyun cigarettes, which are not expensive in Li Xiuyuan's opinion, but for these farmers who have been digging in the soil all their lives, they are luxuries, and they are usually reluctant to smoke such good cigarettes, and only during the Chinese New Year, they will buy one or two.

Rural people are relatively simple, and now that they have taken Li Xiuyuan's salary, if they take a pack of ten-yuan cigarettes, they will not be able to do it!

Seeing that a few people were embarrassed, Li Xiuyuan persuaded: "Uncles, don't be embarrassed, I still have a lot of things to ask you for help in the future." ”

Saying this, several people stopped refusing, took the cigarette, opened it and smoked it!

"Second uncle, the yard will be full of fruit trees in the future. I'm going to put the wall back on the masonry, and do you know there's masonry for sale?"

The second uncle took a puff of cigarette and nodded: "It's good to use bricks and stones, it's easy to save trouble." You don't care about this, the second uncle will do it for you. The second uncle remembers that there is a small mountain river on the right side of the hillside behind your house, and then dig a canal for you, bring in the mountains and water, and dig a reservoir in the yard, so that it will be convenient for you to water trees and vegetables in the future!"

"That's a good feeling!" Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said, "Just dig a bigger one and make it into a fish pond, I can raise some fish and shrimp in it in the future." ”

"Okay!"

Ten people moved quickly, and in five days, all the weeds in the yard were cleared, the ground was also turned over, the pond was dug, a layer of white lime was sprinkled in the dug pond, sterilized and disinfected, and several people went to the back hillside to dig a canal to bring in the mountain water.

On this day, fruit tree saplings were also delivered, and several people planted fruit trees in the backyard and around the pond.

After waiting for another day for the canal to be dug and the mountain water was drawn into the pond that had already been cleaned up, looking at the mountain water flowing into the pond, several people had smiles on their faces, and all the work was finally completed.

"Xiuyuan, the project has been done for a total of eight days, a total of 11,000 two, you give 11,000 and it will be!" The second uncle came to Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile.

"How can this work? Everyone is busy before and after, and they are all busy. "How could Li Xiuyuan be greedy for this little bargain, leaving a bad impression:" "As much as it should be, I will take the money in a while, 13,000, the second uncle, you have been fortunate for so many days, they have settled, and you can take the rest of the second uncle." ”

"Then what's the matter, I'm your second uncle, and I should help. How can I ask for your money!"

"My brother has also settled the accounts, second uncle, you help me work, and I will give you wages, which is justified. If you don't want to, I won't dare to look for you in the future!"

Li Xiuyuan also said that the second uncle still disagreed, and in the end, in desperation, Li Xiuyuan threatened to give the money to those who worked, and did not ask him for help in the future, the second uncle agreed. makes Li Xiuyuan depressed and very gratified, there are very few people in this society who are as stubborn as the second uncle and value family affection.
