Chapter 87: Leeks Attract Love

The vegetables in the space grow faster, the leeks grow faster, and after the first stubble, the second stubble can be cut again after three days.

Bai Luoxue saw the leek, and before she could speak, I said that I was going to buy mutton, but she stopped me.

"Say I love to eat leek and mutton dumplings, we can't just eat like that! Today, the leeks and eggs are not bad! ”

As a result, the dumplings taste just as delicious.

To my surprise, the third crop of leeks was only one day apart. Bai Luoxue began to blame me.

"Didn't we say that we would eat two meals a week, and if we ate three meals, we would break the rules."

"You're talking about dumplings, not leeks. Today, change the way to eat, blanch it with boiling water, and let's eat cold noodles. ”

As a result, cold noodles with leeks also taste quite good.

Bai Luoxue finally understood, it seems that the reason for her addiction is not dumplings filled with leeks and mutton, the key is leeks.

This taste is a bit familiar, not the taste of the leeks themselves, but the feeling of eating this dish, which is the same as those vegetables in wholesale, even if you eat it, you still want to eat it.

She finally asked me, "Where did you buy these leeks?" ”

"That supermarket just down to the north!"

I made up a place to deal with her.

"Why can't I buy such delicious leeks? Isn't the variety different? ”

The white falling snow was thoughtful.

"Well, it's possible!"

I can't give her a clear explanation right now, but fortunately she didn't get to the bottom of it.

The square of leeks in the space now has to be cut every day, and it grows too fast. Bai Luoxue and I can't eat like this every day, she seems to be a little reluctant, and she is deliberately avoiding it.

In order not to eat leeks with me at noon, I want to go home for dinner, and I said that I have a guest. Since she doesn't eat it, I don't need to eat it anymore, and the vegetables made in the canteen are also provided by me, so it's time for me to change my tricks, but I don't have the company of Bai Luoxue at noon today.

I let her take the bundle of leeks away, so she could give it to her parents or relatives. Leeks are fresh and wilt as soon as they are put away, so it is best not to leave them overnight.

Every day I would put a bunch of leeks on the table, which completely made Bai Luoxue a little tired. It's not that she doesn't like to eat, it's not that she doesn't want to eat, there are many kinds of vegetables, why do you have to be one-sided? So I changed the variety for him, tomatoes. Tomato noodles made at noon. The tomatoes I picked from the space were also delicious.

Since then, I have reverted to the same dishes at noon every day, and we will occasionally eat a meal of leek and mutton dumplings to satisfy the gluttony in Bai Luoxue's belly.

The leeks that I cut every day couldn't be wasted, so I gave them to the factory canteen, and their reaction opened my mind to the next level.

Several chefs in the canteen made leek dumplings, which were not sold because there were not many, so they ate them themselves. The next day I asked if I had any leeks and they had never eaten anything so good. I really responded to my words, and I still want to eat after eating.

Since then, as long as Bai Luoxue doesn't want to eat leeks, or she doesn't want to take them away, I will send them to the canteen, and the canteen masters are very happy to ask for them.

I don't know how to get out of the rumors, a vendor asked me if there were leeks here when I was wholesaling vegetables, and if there were, he ordered 200 catties a day. Other vendors also have this demand.

Satisfying the needs of my customers is the purpose of my business, and although it is sometimes sold in limited quantities, there are no restrictions on the initial stages of new product promotion.

To expand the area of leek cultivation, it is necessary for me to expand.

Like wind and snow, a piece of land was opened up, about one acre, and leeks were planted. Five days later, the first crop was on the market. Vendors rushed to grab the goods. Everyone didn't take much, but their feedback was amazing, and they wanted it the next day, they had to wait, no!

It's not that I'm deliberately hanging their appetite, it's that the space hasn't grown yet. Suffered for three days. They just mentioned the goods. After another day, I finally had it every day. Originally, I was worried that there would be too many plants, but the fact that they would be sold out every day.

Originally, I was a test seller of leeks, and I didn't sign a contract with the vendors, and they said that they wanted to increase the amount, so I had to limit it. Each vendor is up to 200 catties, and small households are 100 catties, which ensures that everyone has goods to pick.

Cutting leeks and bundling leeks is a very troublesome matter, if it weren't for the fact that I have two intelligent AIs, it would definitely be impossible to plant them in a large area, and this little work is of course nothing to the two of them.

I have now decided not to expand the cultivation area of leeks, and I found that when Rufeng and Ruxue squatted in the ground to cut leeks, because the movement was too fast, the knife was easy to cut on the hand, and the plastic gloves were easily cut.

It doesn't matter if the gloves are broken, and I'm worried that the silicone on their hands will be damaged. They are expensive to maintain, and if they need to be repaired by robots because of cutting leeks, the gains outweigh the losses. When will the leeks of that acre of land earn 100,000?

For this reason, I found a good quality canvas glove in the labor insurance shop and asked them to be specially used to cut leeks, so as to avoid the risk of hand injury.

The expansion of the leek growing business has come to an end for the time being.

During this period, I also made a bold attempt.

In the morning, I transported the vegetables from the space to Warehouse 1, brought Rufeng out, taught it how to operate the remote control, and loaded the trucks for the vendors.

If the wind is so smart, it will be taught as soon as it is taught. I supervised all morning without any errors, much faster than I could have done it myself. I regret it a little, I should have invited it out a long time ago, and I would have liberated it sooner.

When it was loading the trucks for customers, I went to warehouse No. 2 and shipped the fish needed to produce canned food, saving me the need to do the work after wholesale vegetables, which greatly improved efficiency. There's still snow in the space, which can help me with my tasks.

I was able to go back to my room and get some sleep until the computer came in and the wholesale was done, and I re-entered the warehouse and sent the wind back to the space.

The 30 acres of wheat grow very quickly, and the growth period is longer than that of corn, which takes 15 days according to real-world time, which is also very fast.

How to harvest the wheat has become a new problem before me. Corn harvesters and wheat harvesters are different types of machinery. In order to improve production efficiency, I did not hesitate to go directly to the agricultural machinery market and buy back the equipment.

Like the wind, he drives a harvester and reaps in the field. Like snow, he drove a dump truck to harvest wheat grains.

History seems to be repeating itself.

If the wheat grains are sent directly to the warehouse, they will have to be loaded again to transport them out of the space.

Fortunately, there is not much wheat planted, 30 acres of land, Rufeng and I went in and out of the space 4 times, and finally sent all the wheat to the flour mill. As soon as I settled the accounts, I was taken aback, and it could reach more than 2,000 catties per mu.

In terms of income alone, wheat is more expensive than corn, but its production cycle is long, and it can be planted three times when wheat is planted twice. In the general ledger, the benefits of growing corn are higher than those of wheat.

I decided to focus on growing corn and wheat as a small area.

Then there's a similar question that I need to use my brain. How to properly solve the problem of wheat straw.

Wheat straw, which retains relatively little moisture, is different from corn straw with high moisture, corn straw can be used as green fodder, and wheat straw can of course be made, but when I arrived at the cattle farm and asked the owner if he would accept wheat straw, the owner made it clear that he did not want to.

It's not that his cattle don't eat it, but his cattle can't eat the corn stalks and green fodder I gave him. I thought I didn't have much land for dozens of acres, but I gave it to him every 10 days, and I couldn't eat 10,000 cows.

Seeing that I was worried, the owner of the field gave me an idea to go to the paper mill and have a look, and it must be there.

There are no paper mills in Loess County, the nearest one is in Heitu County, 200 miles away.

Driving to the paper mill in Heitu County, the owner welcomed the purchase of a large amount of wheat straw. This is a good raw material for papermaking.

The straw has a next purchase, which dispelled my concerns. Considering that it was the first time I had planted wheat, I did not collect straw. Let Rufeng plough it in the ground and use it as organic base fertilizer. At present, the straw buried underneath does not prevent the wheat from being planted.
