There are two more helpers who don't need to be paid, and there are two less greenhouses that specialize in growing vegetables, and Xu Zhengdao, who basically nests in Kangmin Village when he returns to the city during the New Year, also feels that time flies quite quickly. In the blink of an eye, the weather is getting hotter.

Although he rented the cultivated land allocated to the Zhong family, who was not short of strong labor, Xu Zhengdao still focused on taking care of the self-reserved land next to his yard. The vacant land left over from the previous shed is now planted with seedlings such as corn and sweet potatoes.

There are two greenhouses with tomatoes, cucumbers and watermelons, and Sun Jiawang and Liu Zhiqiang, who are specially responsible for management, are very serious. In the past two months of learning technology from Xu Zhengdao, they have received hundreds of yuan in dividends.

Aside from being able to learn a skill for free, there is also a salary. Such a good thing, the people in the village are not envious. Fortunately, the two parents knew that they also told their sons to keep their sons apart in private, so as not to provoke jealousy.

While paying attention to his own greenhouse, Xu Zhengdao did not forget to pay attention to the Zhong family's pig house. Before the vegetable greenhouse cleaned out of the vegetable leaves, he would ask Zhong Jianguo to come over and pull them, mix some rice bran or corn paste and cook them for the pigs.

The four old sows raised a few years ago gave birth to a litter of cubs some time ago. In addition to working in the field every day, Zhong Jianguo, who spends the rest of his time in the pig house, also raises these little piglets for nothing.

Even through the help of Xu Zhengdao and the village party secretary, Zhong Jianguo's second brother also began to learn from the veterinarian to see a doctor and dispense medicine for pigs. As the piglets grew up one after another, the Zhong family was also happy and felt that there was finally hope for this year.

The previously built biogas digester, after a period of fermentation, has begun to produce biogas. Although the number is not much, the electricity used for lighting in the pig house, as well as cooking pig food and even cooking, can use biogas, which saves a lot of trouble.

Even Zhong Younian, who was worried about money before, also smiled and said: "This pool is really a good thing, saving a lot of electricity bills!" ”

Zhong Younian, who still does not allow him to work in the field, often helps his son take care of the pig house, feeding the pigs, beating grass or cooking pig food, which can also help reduce a lot of burden on the family. Most of the allocated plots were planted with corn and sweet potatoes.

Taking advantage of the rare free time, Xu Zhengdao returned to Yunwu Mountain and replanted a large number of sweet potato seedlings in the vegetable fields that had been reclaimed before. Even if I don't have time to take care of it often, I always come back every once in a while.

The sweet potato field planted in the mountains is also a kind of tie in a sense, which can make him find a reason to come back!

When others began to plant tomatoes and cucumber seedlings, the tomatoes that Xu Zhengdao planted in the greenhouse were already fruitful. Looking at the tomatoes that turned from green to red, Sun Jiawang and the two who were in charge of management were also very happy.

asked: "Ah Zheng, I'm afraid this tomato can be picked in a few days, right?" ”

"The temperature in the shed is high, and the rituring speed will be faster later. During the day, remember to open the tarpaulin to let the tomatoes get more sunlight. In the evening, re-cover the shed to keep the temperature even. ”

"Well, we all remember!"

"In the past two days, I have been contacting buyers and trying to sell the tomatoes we grow at a good price."

"Right now, other people's families have planted seedlings, and we can eat these tomatoes. I now finally understand why you said earlier that greenhouses grow out-of-season vegetables. With a greenhouse, the planting time is completely reversed! ”

"That's what it is! When you learn well, there will be more greenhouses in the village in the future, and we will plant more varieties of vegetables, so it will be called large-scale planting. Perhaps, in the future, people in the city will come to us to buy vegetables! ”

Knowing that Sun Jiawang and these young people actually want to move to the city to live, it would be great if they could have a city hukou. But in Xu Zhengdao's opinion, in a few years, they won't feel that there is anything wrong with living in the suburbs.

Unlike last year, after entering the city, most of the time was leisurely, Xu Zhengdao, who engaged in a greenhouse this year, obviously felt that the time was a lot tighter. Even so, he was busy and didn't forget to go to see the house with Qian Chuanlin.

As long as he feels that the location is a good house, Xu Zhengdao will unceremoniously buy it. When he found out that the 100,000 yuan he exchanged last year was basically spent, he stopped this crazy behavior.

Seeing the completed house ownership certificate, Xu Zhengdao said with emotion: "These houses, after more than ten or twenty years, I am afraid that each of them is worth a lot of money." At that time, I'm afraid it's no problem to be a free charter man! ”

Qian Chuanlin, who helped him find a house and negotiate the price, heard that he was finally willing to stop, and said with the same emotion: "No money, right?" I thought you had a money printing machine! Buying so many houses, are you living alone? ”

"It's really not good, so why don't I find more daughters-in-law in the future?"

"Yes, you kid still thinks about the good things of three wives and four concubines! Take it easy, hooliganism will be shot! ”

Bickering and playing poor, the two of them are indispensable when they get together. After the joke was finished, Xu Zhengdao said in a timely manner: "Old Qian, the house has been purchased, but many houses need to be renovated, leave this matter to you, no problem, right?" ”

"That's sure to be fine! Work for your boy, my apprentices are screaming! ”

"Done! Let's still have the old rules, you let them help me repair all the houses I bought. If you want money, tell me the number when you get there. In addition, the two sets of courtyards in Shichahai and Yuanzhong Park will be repaired for me first. ”

"Okay, or do you want to fix it as before?"

"Well, since it's an old mansion, it must be repaired as before. However, the yard can be old and fine, but the inside of the house, or give me a whole modern bathroom or something, you know, I don't like to go to the public toilet. ”

"Knowing that your kid is a master who loves to enjoy, I will explain this matter to my apprentices."

This year, I will take over the work of helping Xu Zhengdao repair the house, I am afraid that it will be enough for the disciples and grandchildren to be busy for a long time. At the end of the conversation, Xu Zhengdao entrusted Qian Chuanlin and asked him to manage the houses he bought, and it would not hurt to leave them idle for a period of time after they were repaired.

When the storm passes, leave a few houses of your choice to live in, and rent the rest to people who do their part or know the basics to earn some rent. Qian Chuanlin didn't say much about Xu Zhengdao's plan.

After being busy with these things, Liu Daneng, who was busy taking care of his daughter-in-law who was about to give birth, also received news from Xu Zhengdao. When he learned that tomatoes and cucumbers in the greenhouse could be sold in small quantities, he immediately became interested.

"Daughter-in-law, do you want tomatoes?"

"You big fool, there are tomatoes there?"

"Hehe, you stay at home first, and I'll bring you a few tomatoes and cucumbers back tomorrow to make sure you have something to eat."

Seeing that Liu Daneng was so happy, He Shuqin thought for a while and said, "Brother Ah Zheng's shed has grown tomatoes and cucumbers?" ”

"Yes! Earlier, he asked someone to bring a letter, asking me to send two cars to pull the goods tomorrow! ”

"Da Neng, what do you think of my family, can you also build a shed. I think this business should be more profitable than pig farming, right? ”

After marrying Liu Daneng, He Shuqin is still worried about her own situation. A few years ago, with the help of Liu Daneng, the He family also built a pig house and raised dozens of pigs. But He Shuqin thinks that maybe planting greenhouse vegetables will be more profitable.

But to her surprise, Liu Daneng said very directly: "Daughter-in-law, we can't pull all the benefits to our side." Help Brother Ah Zheng sell vegetables, and we can make a lot of money. Besides, our family just raised pigs and planted vegetables, are you busy? ”

"Oh too! Am I being too greedy? ”

"This is not called greed, you also want your brother-in-law to make more money. When the child is born, I went to the south with Ah Zheng, and if I really find a profitable business, I will definitely bring your brother and bring him to increase his knowledge. ”

With this promise, He Shuqin didn't say anything more. She knows very well that she really wants to think about everything only for the sake of her mother's family, and Liu Daneng will have opinions after a long time. It's okay to help out, but you also have to know how to stop in moderation!
