Chapter Seventy-Seven: Buying Fertilizer
The military uncle, the third uncle and the aunt and grandmother who carried it gave him some of the farmer's specialties that their family gave him back, hung them up when they should be hung, stored when they should be stored, and dried when they should be dried............
The people of Daao Village have a special fondness for drying things, every household all year round, except for rainy days, as long as there is a sunny day is a good day for them to dry, and in their opinion, there is almost nothing that cannot be dried.
The front yard and back yard of the house and the roof of Daao Village are good places to dry, some will use dustpans to dry things, but more will use bamboo plaques.
Bamboo plaque is a kind of utensils made of bamboo strips, round bottom, the border is very shallow, generally will be woven larger, in order to put more things, used to raise silkworms, hold grain, dry things, etc., is a simple but very real utensils.
Drying bracken and bamboo shoots in spring, pumpkin and beans in summer, rice and peppers in autumn............ The colorful crops, the blue bricks, white walls, and gray tiles of the ancient buildings in the village are extremely vivid and very lively.
Lin Musen hung the bacon, cured pheasant, and wrapped the snacks separately and put them directly in the rice bowl.
The rice bowl is also made of ceramic, a little smaller than the water tank, the sealing is not bad, it is best to preserve these snacks, and some old people will also use the rice bowl to ripen persimmons, vine pears and other fruits.
When I was a child, Lin's grandmother would put the unripe kiwifruit in a rice bowl, and it would be ripe in a few days.
The ripe kiwifruit is very soft to bite, and the flesh is sweet and sour, which is particularly delicious, and Lin Musen can have several in one breath.
After getting those, he found the bamboo plaque that he had cleaned and washed last time, and then put some mountain goods such as mushrooms and fungus sent by his aunt and grandmother on the bamboo plaque and sorted them, which were picked by his aunt and her family on the mountain peak on the other side of the field, and after cleaning, they looked very fresh and fresh.
The water and soil of the mountains over there are more suitable for the growth environment of some fungi, they are some mountain streams, stone walls and other landforms, and they are also relatively dark, that kind of place is the favorite place of various fungi, and the mountain peaks near the village are rarer.
Lin Musen set up a bamboo plaque in the yard, squatted and began to sort out all kinds of mountain goods.
At this time, Meng Meng and Heijing saw that Lin Musen was fiddling, and they also came over to join in the fun, and after running over, they sniffed the mountain goods on the bamboo plaque, and Heijing also bit a fresh mushroom, and it immediately spit it out.
After staring at Lin Musen for a while with watery eyes, they felt that Lin Musen did not play with them, nor did they give them food, so they walked to Da Mumu to play with small steps, and put on a look of spirit, which made Lin Musen cry and laugh.
After a few helpless glances at the two troublemakers, Lin Musen picked out the mushrooms that Sombra had bitten and continued to clean up.
Looking up at the sky, it was very clear, white clouds, sunny, the weather did not look like it was going to rain, so after sorting out the mountain goods, Lin Musen stepped on the stairs and put the bamboo plaque full of mountain goods on the roof tiles, so as not to be ruined by the two naughty ghosts.
After washing his hands after coming down the stairs, and walking around the front and back of the house, Lin Musen found that the old house was more smoky, and it felt as inhabited as the village below, not as deserted and desolate as when he first came back.
After the visit, put away the things, most of the time in the morning has passed, Lin Musen looked at the time, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, thinking that there were still some things to do.
Hurriedly told Mu Mu, and he drove in the direction of the town with the money.
Surrounded by mountains and babbling rivers, it was quite enjoyable to drive in such an environment, and after ten minutes I arrived at the three-way intersection, and I turned a corner to the town.
At this time, the morning market in the town has just passed, and the end of the market, some stalls are packing up their things, and some are packing up and riding tricycles to go home, preparing for the evening market, which is quite lively.
Lin Musen was driving on the main road of Qingshan Town, and asked a warm-hearted uncle halfway through, asking him where he had a store selling fertilizer, after all, Qingshan Town is also a large town with a large population, and he really didn't know where it was for a while.
Because Lin Musen asked in the local dialect of Raozhong, and with a local accent, the uncle not only helped Lin Musen say the direction, but also enthusiastically led a way, allowing him to experience the enthusiasm of the people in his hometown.
After thanking the uncle, Lin Musen drove in the direction he pointed.
Within two minutes, he found a street specializing in selling farmers' supplies, and on both sides of the street were selling all kinds of seeds, fertilizers, hoes, shovels, rakes and other things, and even he saw a shop selling all kinds of agricultural equipment, such as rice ploughers, rice transplanters, and harvesters.
It's just that those shops that sell agricultural machinery have little business, and now the farmers' families have a maximum of ten acres of land, and the farmers are willing to spend so much money to buy machines, and the money earned from a year's hard work is not necessarily enough to buy the machine.
Lin Musen wrote down the location of that one, and then he drove to the door of a large-looking fertilizer store, called Fengnian Fertilizer and Pesticide Store.
Generally, those who sell fertilizers will also sell pesticides, Lin Musen will think about it, the name is not bad, but it is also quite big, so he parked the car and walked into this store.
"Hello sir, I am the owner of this shop, surnamed Zhao, what do you need, we have all kinds of fertilizers and pesticides here, all kinds of which are the most affordable prices on this street." ”
As soon as Lin Musen stepped into the store, a fat man with a professional smile walked over and introduced the situation in the store to Lin Musen.
"Well, I want to buy some organic fertilizer, for planting peach trees, about sixty acres, Boss Zhao, you see what you need, how much you need." ”
Lin Musen naturally doesn't believe in the most affordable prices, and you may say the same thing when you go to every store. But if you don't believe it, he still said what he wanted to buy directly.
Organic fertilizer was told to him by Boss Tao, saying that organic fertilizer can improve the taste of the fruit, so he asked.
Suddenly, after hearing Lin Musen say sixty acres, the fat man smiled even brighter, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and without hesitation, he immediately asked: "Then may I ask the boss, how many peach trees are there and how old are the trees?"
"There are about 3,000 trees, and the age of the trees is three years old. ”
"Okay, I recommend this organic fertilizer to you, suitable for peach trees to use as a base fertilizer, not only ........."
After spending more than ten minutes, Lin Musen followed the boss surnamed Zhao to bargain not too fiercely, and Lin Musen bought 80 tons of organic fertilizer at a fairly affordable price, one hundred and fifty yuan per ton, a total of 12,000.
After paying the money to the address, let the fat man send it over as soon as possible, Lin Musen heard Boss Tao yesterday say that organic fertilizer is best used before planting, of course, it can also be planted in use, this is not at that time no one told him, and he will just get it, who calls himself a novice.
Boss Zhao accepted the money with a smile, opened a list for Lin Musen, promised to send it over in the afternoon, and recommended such and such topdressing to Lin Musen.
However, Lin Musen didn't continue to understand, took the order, confirmed the time, said that he had time to ask, and then left the store.
What are you kidding, it costs so much money to buy an organic fertilizer, if you are buying this and that, Lin Musen will have to die of distress, and his money is not blowing in the wind.
Looking at the back of Lin Musen leaving, Boss Zhao began to mutter: "I hate to bargain with this kind of nerd the most, I can't say a fart for a long time, and I can't make a price so low, hey...... Forget it, I still have to make ............ anyway"
