Gao Yuan and Guo Feng walked for a while, and the deputy village of the production team, Chen Shan...... A call came.

"Hey, uncle." Ye Mo shouted.

"Boss Li is coming over soon, are you at home?"

"At home." Ye Hei said, "Do you want to go over?" Chen Shan said.

"Okay, thank you, uncle."

"Thank you, thank you, it's all family." Chen Shan smiled and said, "I'll go over right away." ”

Ye Mo was next to the melon field and blew the air conditioner for a while.

Chen Shan came over first, and the two of them smoked a cigarette, and Boss Li also came over.

Boss Li is a big fruit merchant, and the scale of his company is one of the best in Huacheng.

The production team last year's mango and pomegranate were purchased by him.

Listening to Chen Shan, Boss Li's business is very big, and he has a large storage base in Huacheng. In Chengdu, Guangdong and other regions, there are also their own warehouses.

Boss Li drove a dusty Volkswagen car, and at first glance, it was an ordinary Volkswagen, so look closely...... It's a Phaeton. Listen to the sound, it could be a V8 engine, or a W12 engine...

"Boss Li." When Chen Shan saw the comer, he shouted with a smile, "Mr. Li." Ye Mo took out a cigarette and lit one for the two of them.

"Brother Chen, you still need to call me Xiao Li. It's a lot of pressure to call me boss. Boss Li said with a smile.

"Let me introduce you, Ye Qing's son, Ye Mo." Chen Shan said: "Boss Li, Li Xuebin." ”

"Hello." Li Xuebin looked at Ye Mo.

"Hello."

Ye Mo also looked at him, Li Xuebin's age should be in his forties, less than fifty.

Entering the melon field, Li Xuebin carefully looked at these watermelons and said, "These watermelons are good." ”

"Just now, two bosses came to see and said that after these watermelons are ripe, if they can be the same as they are, they will be special melons." Ye Mo said that Li Xuebin rubbed the stubble on his chin and nodded: "Isn't the watermelon ripe yet?" ”

"Not yet." Ye Mo picked one, cut it, and handed half of it to Li Xuebin.

The remaining half, he cut it twice and handed it to Chen Shan: "Although it is not fully ripe, the taste is also very sweet." ”

"It's only three or four years of maturity." Li Xuebin said, taking a closer look at the melon.

The flesh of the melon pulp is particularly delicate, and the fiber is not visible......

He was also the same as them, and studied watermelon rinds.

"When I first started the fruit business, I was pitted by watermelons..."Li Xuebin said with a smile: "Watermelons are not easy to transport, and I am very careful when I do watermelon business later." When harvesting watermelons, only those with thick skin or toughness are collected. ”

This year's watermelons have been sold, and the market is also very good.

The small fruit merchant bought the watermelon and sent the watermelon to the nearest wholesale market, and a car of more than ten tons of watermelon was at least a profit of several thousand. Some watermelons can make tens of thousands of profits in one car......

If it is sent to Guangzhou, the profit will be even higher.

Now there are not many ripe watermelons, high quality, even less For large fruit merchants, whether watermelons are good or not, melon skin toughness is also one of the criteria. The melon skin has good toughness and can be transported over long distances, so the watermelon has a longer shelf life.

Of course, the taste of watermelon must also be good.

Watermelon is troublesome to transport, but fruit, which is troublesome to transport, is more to go. Those fruits are not also sold everywhere, walk around and see.

I walked around the melon field for more than half an hour, and then I saw the melon, the reticulated melon...

"...... in the greenhouse. Watermelon? Li Xuebin was stunned when he saw the watermelon lying under the greenhouse, which was bigger than the big winter melon.

A large watermelon that is more than one meter long is also more than half a meter high. The important thing is the melon shape, which is also very moist and round.

"Specially cultivated large watermelons."

"Can you eat it?"

Ye Mo smiled and said, "I can definitely eat it." ”

"Last year...... There are a few watermelons with a maximum of more than 200 catties in our flower city, which you cultivated? Li Xuebin asked.

With such a large watermelon, it is difficult to grow.

Li Xuebin also saw the video of the big watermelons in Huacheng on the Internet, and the appearance of those big watermelons is exactly the same as the one here. Ye Mo nodded.

"How much do these big watermelons cost?"

"More than 20,000 yuan." Ye Mo said: "The watermelons here are basically booked. ”

"If it's not sold out, if there's a cheap one, keep one for me." Li Xuebin said and walked into the greenhouse.

The weather is hot, during the day, the surrounding area of the greenhouse is lifted, and some are put down at night.

After seeing the rare super big watermelon, Li Xuebin walked aside and made a phone call, chatted for several minutes, and came back to Ye Mo and said, "How many ripe watermelons are in the first batch?" ”

"There should be more than fifty tons."

"I want 45 tons. Look at the goods when they are mature, if they can be packed in bulk, 5 yuan per catty, if they can't be packed in bulk...... 4.5 yuan per catty. Li Xuebin said: "Watermelon is a market for a few days, and a market is a price.

"45 tons?"

"Hmm. If it could be shipped in bulk, 45 tons would have been transported in two trucks. If it can't be shipped in bulk, it will be more troublesome to transport. It's just an approximate price, and I'll come over and see when it's mature. ”

"Do you need to pick melons?"

"Do you still need to pick your watermelons, they all look the same." Li Xuebin said with a smile.

Ye Mo smiled and said, "It's picked when it's seven ripe, right?" ”

"Seven mature, eight mature, all right." Li Xuebin said: "Anyway, it's just the last few days. ”

Ye Mo nodded and sent Li Xuebin away, and Ye Mo called his father: "Dad, are you back?" ”

"I'm back, I'll be in Hongshan Town right away." Dad said.

Ye Mo hung up the phone, drove the small excavator over, and cleaned up a few sites next to the watermelon fieldNot long after coming out, my father came over with a small truck, loaded with some light steel, and woven shade nets.

Dig a few small pits in the ground, then erect the light steel and fix it with straps......

Ye Mo wants to build several awnings for watermelons.

The awning is very simple, and it doesn't take long for an awning covering an area of several hundred square meters to be erected.

The sky called Dark Lin Xiaomian: "It's time to eat, come over quickly." ”

"Right now." Ye Mo hung up the phone: "Dad, I'm going to eat." ”

Today I had dinner at my second uncle's house.

Their orchard applied organic fertilizer, and Lin Xiaomian and Ye Ran drove an excavator to help loosen the soil there. The digging bucket was replaced with a rake claw, which simply loosened the soil on the surface and sprinkled with grass seeds mixed with organic fertilizer.

Apply organic fertilizer and plant grass.

The temperature is getting hotter day by day, and as in previous years, it is usually ...... It started to rain in late April, with light rain. The rainy season begins after mid-May......

As mentioned before, there are pros and cons to planting grass in an orchard. It mainly depends on whether the pros outweigh the disadvantages, or whether the disadvantages outweigh the pros.

The fruit trees over there are not small, but the soil fertility is thin. Last year, a lot of organic fertilizer was given to improve the soil, prevent soil erosion, and plant grass...... It's also a good choice. More importantly, there are grass plants in the orchard, which can reduce the temperature in the orchard.
