Chapter 200: Fruit Sapling
People have helped her so much today, and she must thank them well!
Jiang Jiayi also liked this generous little sister, so she readily agreed.
In April, Song Xi gave each student two grape seedlings, two orange seedlings, and two grapefruit seedlings for them to take home.
Let parents plant well, manage well, and manage it properly, so that there will be no shortage of fruits to eat in the future, and those that can't be eaten can also be taken out for change.
In mid-April, the mu of broad beans planted by Song Xi in the sandy land was irrigated by Lingquan water, and the yield exceeded 800 catties.
Song Xi gave each student five catties, so that two hundred catties were removed, and there were six hundred catties left, Song Xi asked the village chief to give each household two catties, and she kept the remaining thirty catties for herself.
Potatoes are usually harvested in May, but Song Xi has watered them with diluted spiritual spring water, so in mid-April, two acres of potatoes in the village and one acre of potatoes in the school can be harvested.
Uncle Qian arranged for someone to collect the two acres of potatoes in the village, while Song Xi took the students to collect the potatoes from the school.
There is an amazing yield of potatoes, 30,000 catties are harvested in two acres in the village, and 10,000 catties are harvested in one acre in the school.
However, no one made a public announcement about it, and the potatoes were directly put into storage when they were harvested.
Since many families will grow potatoes that can fill their stomachs in their own fields, Qian Weimin did not arrange for someone to divide the potatoes, but asked Wu Zhuhua to call Song Xi over.
"Xiaoxi, do you have any comments on these potatoes?" Qian Weimin doesn't want to sell these potatoes cheaply, this year's potatoes are big and full, the skin is smooth, there is no problem at all, and if you sell it for a few cents a pound, your heart will drip blood.
"Uncle Qian, do you remember the taste of the potato cakes and potato balls I sent you a few years ago?" Song Xi raised his eyebrows confidently.
Qian Weimin nodded again and again, "Remember, remember, it's so delicious, and our family can't forget it until now!" Subsequently, Qian Weimin reacted, "Xiaoxi, should you ...... it?"
Song Xi nodded firmly, "Uncle Qian, you can't do private trading now, but you can do it in the name of the collective, I want Uncle Qian to apply for the establishment of a small workshop, I will hand over the recipe and method of potato cakes and potato balls to the village collective, and then recruit a few aunts with good cooking skills, everyone will make potato cakes and potato balls together, and when the time comes, they can be sent to supply and marketing cooperatives, department stores or non-staple food stores to sell, potatoes can only be sold for a few cents a catty, we can process it like this, and the minimum can be sold for five cents, and the income of people in the city is high, that is, it can be sold for a piece of a catty, There are also many people who are willing to buy. ”
Not only Qian Weimin's eyes lit up, but even the eyes of several other village cadres also lit up with hope, and the accountant was excited, "Village chief, I think the method Song Xi said is feasible." ”
Although Wu Zhuhua was happy, she was worried and had her own worries, and she also directly said the worries in her heart, "This shouldn't be able to be done for a long time, right?" If people from other villages found out that potato processing could be so profitable, they would definitely steal our business. ”
"It's normal to grab business, no matter when someone will grab business, besides, it's not called robbery, we can do potato business, others can do it, just like that garment factory, there are garment factories all over the country, so you don't let others do it, isn't this an industry monopoly? But we can find a way in terms of quality and taste, as long as it tastes better than others, no one can steal our business. ”
The potatoes in Ping'an Village have been watered with Lingquan water, whether it is the taste or taste, it is not comparable to ordinary potatoes.
And it won't last long.
Afraid that everyone would be entangled in this, Song Xi hurriedly said, "But there will definitely be no way to grab it in the first two years, because we can use a price one cent higher than the market price to collect potatoes from other villages, or we can sign cooperation agreements with other villages, so that they will give priority to selling potatoes to our Ping'an Village every year in the future." ”
"Xiao Xi ......" Qian Weimin is like an enlightenment, his mind is clear in an instant, and he knows what to do, he looked at the little girl sitting in front of him, he was really excited, I really hope she is his own child, this brain is turning too fast, with her, why is Ping'an Village underdeveloped?
"Xiaoxi, leave these things to a few of us old guys to deal with, you can just teach the students with peace of mind, and when the arrangements are made, I will call you to come over and teach everyone to make potato cakes and potato balls."
Qian Weimin was excited, and he couldn't wait to go to the commune to report this matter now, because Ping'an Village was very remote and very poor, the people of the commune had a three-way attitude towards Ping'an Village.
They themselves find a way to increase the income of the villagers, and the commune will definitely agree.
"Uncle Qian, I said before that planting rattan and rattan vegetables will not delay the planting of spring corn and sweet potatoes, and now the yield of rattan and rattan vegetables has been good, if you ruin it to plant corn and sweet potatoes, it will really be a bit more than worth the ......loss."
"Xiaoxi, you don't have to worry about this, we won't destroy the vines and vegetable fields, we will find a new place to grow sweet potatoes and corn, we want food, and we want money." Money vouched for the people.
Rattan and rattan vegetables are so profitable now, they can't destroy it, besides, the village opened so much wasteland a year ago, although there are no nutrients, but you can water more farm fertilizer.
"Uncle Qian, I still need a few mountains, I want to take the children to plant fruit trees, and then the fruit trees can also bring revenue to everyone, if they can't bring revenue, they can be shared with everyone to eat, no matter how bad they are, they can be cut down as firewood, and they will definitely not be wasted."
Thinking of the hundreds of one-meter-high grapefruit trees in the supermarket, Song Xi had a headache, he didn't expect that the twenty-five pomelos at the beginning would cultivate so many fruit trees, and he didn't know how many mountains it would take to plant them.
"Whichever mountain you like, you can use it, but you must pay attention to safety." Qian Weimin said magnificently, now Song Xi's image in his mind is comparable to that of a god, but now he is not allowed to engage in feudal superstition, so he can't say such things.
"Then thank you Uncle Qian, I will definitely work hard to create more income for Ping'an Village." Song Xi bowed slightly to Qian Weimin, then turned around and left the village.
Next, Qian Weimin and several village cadres began to run around for the small workshop, and Wu Zhuhua also went to clean up the big canteen and arrange the next things.
Song Xi planted broad beans, potatoes and pumpkins on the school's three acres of sandy land, and now that the broad beans and potatoes have been harvested, he must hurry up and plant the watermelons.
Watermelons are usually planted in the spring, and the early-maturing varieties are planted around mid-March, and will mature in early to mid-July.
