Eaten.

The afternoon sun is blazing.

Ye Mo's uncle still had something to do in the afternoon, and after dinner, he went to the orchard to pick mangoes.

There are some golden mangoes left on the tree.

There are two main types of mangoes grown in Dongmen Town, Jinhuang Mango and Kate Mango.

Jinhuang mango mango is planted in relatively small quantities, and it is very good to sell after it is marketed. Ye Mo's Jinhuang mango began to be picked in early July, and some were deliberately left, until now...... The mangoes, which are still on the tree, have ripened naturally. Pick it and eat it.

Kate mangoes ripen early.

They sell fruit here, and the fruit buyer will come to see it in advance and negotiate the price in advance.

Negotiate the price, and the price cannot be changed. When it is time to pick, whether the price of Kate mangoes rises or falls has nothing to do with the fruit farmers. It is equivalent to selling in advance......

Selling early is a big plus for growers.

In the fruit market, the price of fruit varies greatly. In the past, after the fruit was ripe, the buyer would come to see the fruit and make an offer...... Negotiate acquisitions based on market prices.

Fruit merchants do less preparation in advance, and as long as the output is more, it will lead to a series of problems. In the early years, three or four years ago...... Mangoes, which are of slightly inferior quality in the region, are cheaper than Chinese cabbage. There are also mangoes in orchards that cannot be sold, and rot on the trees.

Negotiate the purchase price in advance and estimate the approximate output, and the fruit merchants are prepared and the fruit farmers are also prepared.

The mango in Huacheng has absolutely no quality.

The geographical location of Kehua City is surrounded by mountains. In their local area, all kinds of tropical fruits are quite cheap. Shipping out, transportation costs will account for the lion's share.

When Ye Mo was in Shenzhen, he went to the supermarket to buy Kate mangoes from Huacheng, and the extra-large fruit cost twenty or thirty yuan and one catty. Ordinary catties of fruit, that is, about 1 catty of mangoes, also cost more than ten yuan and 1 catty.

But that's the terminal price.

Like the mangoes of Ye Mo's family, the fruit is combed three times, and the mangoes that are retained are large and good-looking...... Wholesale price, 3.5 yuan 1 catty. The quality is worse, two more than 1 catty, and there are cheaper ones.

……

Chen Chen is going back.

Ye Mo rode the battery car and sent him back.

There are fruit buyers who are talking about the price of mangoes in their area......

Chen Chen's father had inconvenient legs and was sitting on the steps under the shade of a tree at the edge of the courtyard.

"Third uncle." Seeing Chen's father, Ye Mo shouted.

"Hey." Dad Chen smiled and stood up: "The two pieces of land on Gaotupo, I discussed it with Chen Chen's mother and sold it. ”

"Thank you, Third Uncle."

Dad Chen took out a cigarette and lit one for Ye Mo: "Thank you, thank you, the price you gave is very high, and our family takes advantage of it." ”

"Don't I know too much about the process of land transfer, do I need a certificate from Murakami?" Ye Mo asked.

"No, you don't. There is a Huang Laosan in the town, who works as a real estate agent and also does land transfer. When you have time, we ask him to help draft a contract and he will take us to town to go through the formalities. Chen's father said. Land transfer is not new on their side, as a large mountainous area where tropical fruits can be grown, land contracting and circulation here are still relatively frequent.

Chen Chen's second uncle originally had more than 30 acres of orchards, and transferred 15 acres out.

You have to manage the orchard to have a harvest, and you have to manage it well. No pain, no gain......

It takes a lot of sweat to harvest good fruits.

The wages of local farmers are very high, especially during busy farming hours. One day, it's almost more than three hundred dollars.

It is very difficult for a family's labor force to carefully manage a mango orchard of about 20 acres.

Growing fruits and growing grains, vegetables, ...... It's all about the same, there are busy and idle farms. When the farm is busy, it is really hard.

"Okay, I'll drive you up tomorrow morning and go to town to sign the contract." Ye Mo said.

"Okay."

"See you tomorrow morning...... Ye Mo said and waved his hand, glanced at the towering mountain bag in the distance, and prepared to go to the mountain to have a look.

……

"Dad, are you really going to sell the two pieces of land over there?" Chen Chen watched Ye Mo leave, turned his head to look at his father, and said.

"Sell it. It's useless to keep it...... "Chen Chen's father said that if the land is reclaimed to grow mangoes, it takes a lot of money. Their family has no money......

Chen Chen himself was a little reluctant to land over there.

Dad Chen smiled, pulled him to sit next to him, and said, "Ye Mo gave 660,000 yuan, which is not cheap, 160,000 yuan more than the previous boss." Before, the boss gave me 500,000 yuan, and I actually wanted to sell it. We can't reclaim that piece of land, so in exchange for 660,000 yuan, we can buy you a house in the city and marry a wife. ”

"Let's get your leg right now. We still owe 110,000 to our uncle...... The money will be repaid first. Chen Chen said: "It's not cost-effective to buy a house in the city, it's better to build a small villa at home." ”

"This ......"

"Dad, listen to me. Let's pay the money back first, and then heal your leg...... Then build a villa at home. When your leg is healed, our family's life will definitely get better and better. ”

"Hmm. Okay, it's all up to you. When the villa is built, if you have any money left, I will buy you a trolley. Dad Chen smiled and said, "I think Ye Mo's car is very good-looking, how much does it cost?" ”

"Ye Moge's car is a red flag, a large SUV...... That car was very expensive, estimated at around 600,000. ”

Dad Chen took a deep breath: "It's so expensive." ”

"In the future, we will manage the 26 acres of orchards at home, and we can earn more than a dozen or two hundred thousand yuan a year. When you have money, you can buy a good car. ”

"Hahaha...... Good. ”

……

Follow the country road to the end.

Ye Mo's car rode on the dirt road, and after walking for a while, he arrived at the foot of the high soil slope.

The dirt road of Gaotupo was opened up by the Ye family and the Chen family together, and the dirt road side of the dirt road spiraled up the relatively gentle hillside. It's seventy or eighty meters high......

After going up, a large area of gentle land is similar to the orchards below the mountain, and most areas can be planted directly with fruit trees without cultivating terraces.

All in all, the top of the hill is a small hill with a large protruding earthen bag.

The area of the big earthen bag is more than 20 acres, which is the size of two standard football fields.

Two standard football fields, not too small.

The mountains are desolate.

All the large shrubs and trees that used to be were cut down. But there are small shrubs that have just grown......

Weeds are not particularly luxuriant, and bare rocks and soil can be seen in many places.

Chen Chen's family used to grow mangoes on the top of the mountain, but due to the limitations of manpower and funds, the mango orchard here was abandoned. The mango tree, which was not well managed, was still alive and grew into a shrub. Tree by tree, crawling with vines.

There are not many mango trees on the mountain, and it is estimated that there are only a few hundred or less than a thousand in size. The growth is very poor.

The total is 150 acres, which is the registered area. The actual area should be a little more exceeded.

Gently undulating slopes.

Follow the dirt road to the durian plantation......

The durian tree here was planted when Ye Mo read high school. Ye Mo also came over to help dig the soil.

750 durian trees were planted that year, and many seedlings were later replanted.

Durian saplings were very expensive at the time, 750 trees, plus later replanting...... There must be a thousand in total, and it is said that it cost more than 100,000 yuan. That money, Grandpa Ye Mo borrowed from the second master, but he never paid it back.

The second master is rich and does a pig feed business in Dongmen Town. The second master was never married...... After he died, the town house was given to his grandfather. After Grandpa died, the house in the town belonged to Uncle Ye Mo......

Their side has a hot and dry valley climate, and it is true that you can grow many kinds of tropical fruits, typical ...... Jackfruit.

However, jackfruit can also be grown at lower altitudes.

They are close to 1,500 meters above sea level, and they belong to the top of the hot and dry valley......

At an altitude of more than 1,500 meters, it is difficult to grow tropical fruits. Durian, on the other hand, needs to accumulate at a higher temperature to grow.

Everyone said that Grandpa Ye Mo was deceived, but he was twisted and couldn't listen to anyone's persuasion.

Others say you can't grow durian here, hey, he just doesn't listen.

When Grandpa was still around, this durian orchard was always managed. Every year, Grandpa would call Daddy Ye, the second uncle and the younger uncle to come over to fertilize and irrigate the durian tree.

After Grandpa left, this durian tree was not managed much.

There were at least 700 durian trees that survived that year. Because of the lack of management, some of the trees that have been entangled in vines have died in recent years.

Ye Mo came to the side of the durian orchard and looked up.

The tallest of these trees is six or seven meters. It should be a little higher than a two-story building......

A short tree, about five meters.

I don't know if there are 500 trees that are still alive.

It's been a durian tree for more than ten years, and the climate here is not bad. These durian trees have been planted alive.

In recent years, there is also flowering, and the fruit is ......

Ye Mo took a closer look at the tree, looked around, and saw two durians on the tree. A large grove of trees, two durians...... The durian is not big, the stalk is very long, and it is the shape of a rugby.

"The result?" Ye Mo was amazed, and took out his mobile phone to take two photos.

More than 20 acres of durian have produced two fruits......

It proves that durian can be grown here. Durian trees can be planted alive and can also blossom and bear fruit...... It is the fruit of the tree, which does not grow much.

However, now that there are two durians on the tree, it will not be strange if Ye Mo lets all the durian trees bear fruit in the future.
