"You're back, old man. Did you see your son fishing? Did you catch it? Mo Shifu went home early, Wang Juhua asked.

"I caught a mullet weighing more than ten catties, and someone bought it for five hundred yuan. There were also people who bought some crucian carp. Mo Shifu said with a somewhat complicated face.

"I didn't expect my son to be so powerful and be able to earn so much money fishing every day?" Wang Juhua sighed and said that they elderly people couldn't imagine such a thing.

"But fishing is not a long way, I heard that Yulong Lake is not allowed to fish for half a year every year." Mo Shifu said worriedly.

"Don't think so much, a person as big as his son must have his own ideas. Let's wait until he fishes to earn money and pays off his debts. Wang Juhua said.

"Well, that's all there is to it." Mo Shifu didn't know what his son should do, everything depended on his son's own will.

In the evening, Mo Shifu told his son about the ban on fishing in Yulong Lake for half a year every year: "Although it seems that you can make money from fishing, you can't fish for half a year, and you have to find something to do." ”

"Dad, I know. By the way, can we contract the barren slope land under the Fairy Peak behind us? I want to contract out this barren slope to grow something. Mo Changfeng asked.

"If you contract, Murakami will definitely be willing, after all, it is also deserted. It's just that the barren slope has been so barren and overgrown with weeds and weeds, what can you plant? Mo Shifu asked.

"Dad, there's a lot of things I can grow. Fruit trees, Chinese medicinal materials, and cash crops can all be planted, and there are more than 30 acres of barren slope land, which can be planted with a lot of things. Mo Changfeng said with a smile.

As long as it is something he wants to grow, even if it is just an ordinary variety, he can grow high-quality and high-grade things, so Mo Changfeng is not worried that the things he grows are not valuable.

"Then I'll ask the village party secretary Zhou Caifu tomorrow, right?" Mo Shifu thought about it and said, he still decided to support his son's idea.

"Dad, I'll go with you tomorrow morning." Mo Changfeng nodded and said.

The next morning, Mo Changfeng came to the village office with his father and met the village party secretary Zhou Caifu, that is, Zhou Wanrong's father, a short and fat elderly man.

Zhou Caifu is already in his sixties, has served as the village party secretary for more than 20 years, is not tall, dark-faced, short and fat, and looks a little serious on the surface, but in fact he is not a bad person.

However, after seeing Mo Changfeng, Zhou Caifu didn't give him a good face, because he felt that his daughter was so old and didn't find a partner because of Mo Changfeng.

"Secretary Zhou, it's been a long time, but you're still so energetic." Mo Changfeng said with a smiling face.

"Old watch, you sit." However, Zhou Caifu ignored him, just beckoned Mo Shifu to sit down, and gave Mo Shifu a cigarette, without looking at Mo Changfeng at all.

"Secretary Zhou, our family wants to ask, under Fairy Peak, the barren slope next to our house, can it be contracted to us?" Mo Shifu was an honest man and asked straight to the point.

"The barren slope next to your house has been barren for decades, what are you contracted to do? I don't think you will get anything from planting crops. Zhou Caifu frowned and asked.

"Changfeng, tell Secretary Zhou, what do you think?" Mo Shifu naturally couldn't say why, so he asked his son to come.

"Secretary Zhou, I haven't been able to go home for some reasons over the years, thank you very much for your care and care for our family, and you can say hello to me in the future.

When I came home this time, I didn't want to go out, I just wanted to accompany my parents and take care of them by their side, so I wanted to contract this barren slope land, whether it was to plant fruit trees or Chinese medicinal herbs. ”

Mo Changfeng could probably guess Zhou Caifu's mood, so he thanked him first before talking about his plans.

Zhou Caifu pondered for a while: "Anyway, it's a barren slope, and it's barren all the time, so you can contract it." At present, the price of contracted land in the village is 200 yuan per mu, and the barren slope land can be cheaper, so count it as 150 yuan per mu. Tomorrow I will ask the village cadres to measure it and see how big the area of the barren slope is, and then you can sign an agreement with the village. ”

"Thank you, Secretary Zhou, just do as you say." Mo Shifu nodded hurriedly and said.

One day later, the cadres of the village came to measure the boundary of the barren slope land, a total of 33 acres of barren slope land, which was contracted to Mo Changfeng's family for 30 years, and the annual circulation gold was 4,950 yuan.

"Secretary Zhou, this year is also a year, but this year's land transfer gold will be handed over to the village in December at the end of the year?"

When signing the agreement, Mo Changfeng took the initiative to propose that this year's circulation money would be counted as one year, but he asked to exchange and transfer money to Murakami at the end of the year, and Zhou Caifu thought about it and agreed.

"If you want to clear out such a large piece of barren slope land, I'm afraid you have to hire an excavator to do it." And the Mo family, the family is also discussing when they are eating.

This barren slope is now overgrown with all kinds of miscellaneous trees and weeds, and the slope is high and steep, and there are rocks in between, which is still very difficult to clean.

Although Mo Changfeng can clean it up by himself, he doesn't want to make it too shocking, so he has to ask for an excavator when he should ask for it, but he can clean up the weeds and weeds first, and he can still do these tasks by himself.

In the next half a month, Mo Changfeng cleared the weeds on the barren slopes in the morning, and went to Yulong Lake to fish in the afternoon to earn money, and the time passed quickly, until around April 10, Yulong Lake announced a ban on fishing.

At this time, Mo Changfeng had already asked his father to pay off the foreign debt of more than 3,000 yuan of the second uncle's family, leaving only Zhou Wanrong with a foreign debt of five or six thousand yuan, but it was not easy to repay the money directly.

Mo Changfeng still has four or five thousand yuan left in his hand, and he just asked the excavator to level the barren slope, but in order to save money, after the excavator works during the day, Mo Changfeng will quietly get some more at night.

In the end, it only cost 3,000 yuan to hire an excavator to level the 33 acres of barren hillside, not only making several large pieces of land relatively flat, but also leaving a three-meter-wide road in the middle.

Mo Changfeng smashed all the boulders cleared out of the barren hillside and paved them on the road, although it was not as good as the cement road, but it was enough for vehicles to pass.

"Son, have you thought about what to plant?" Wang Juhua asked.

"Mom, I have thought about it, this barren slope is not small, I am going to use half of the slope to grow cherries, its value is very high, at least twenty or thirty yuan a catty; The other half of the slope is used to grow precious Chinese medicinal materials, and I will go to the mountains to find some Chinese medicinal materials to come back and plant them these days. ”

Mo Changfeng said that there are five peaks in the surrounding Five Immortal Mountains, namely Fairy Peak, Chunyang Peak, Wanshou Peak, Jade Toad Peak, and Longguan Peak, all of which are four or five hundred meters above sea level.

Mo Changfeng had searched with his divine thoughts before, and found a lot of twenty or thirty kinds of ginseng, Polygonum multiflori, Polygonatum polygonatum, Gastrodia, Clematis, Astragalus, Codonopsis, Chonglou, Dendrobium, Sichuan fritillary, Frangipani, etc., among which there were some precious Chinese medicinal materials.

In the next period of time, Mo Changfeng used the evening time to dig up most of the Chinese medicinal materials in the five peaks and plant them in the barren slope land contracted by himself.

Not only that, when Mo Changfeng was searching for the five peaks, he also found some decades-old jujube trees, walnut trees and tea trees on the steep slopes that no one had visited, and he also quietly dug them up and planted them among the fruit trees on the hillside behind the house.

At the same time, he contacted a plantation in Chengdu to buy 3,000 cherry saplings, which cost 15,000 yuan, but after negotiation, Mo Changfeng paid 5,000 yuan in advance, and the balance was paid within three months.

When the saplings arrived, Mo Changfeng asked someone to help them plant them quickly, and then arranged another miniature spirit gathering array on this side of the barren slope, which was nourished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, whether it was a cherry sapling or those Chinese medicinal materials, they would grow faster.

For example, in the traditional Chinese medicine village, under the nourishment of the aura of heaven and earth, one year of growth is equivalent to about ten years of growth in an ordinary environment, so after a few years of planting, it will be equivalent to planting decades of old medicine.

As for the cherry saplings, it originally took about three years to bear fruit, but under the nourishment of the aura of heaven and earth, Mo Changfeng can be sure that these cherry trees will be able to bear fruit next year.

After the contracted more than 30 acres of barren slope land were completed, it was time to plant seedlings, and Mo Changfeng's family had about six acres of paddy fields, and his father had already leveled out the paddy fields before.

In late April, Mo Changfeng followed his parents to the field to plant seedlings, and it only took three days to plant seedlings in his family's several acres of paddy fields.

Although it is just an ordinary rice seed, the small gathering spirit array arranged by Mo Changfeng has already shrouded his own paddy field in it, and I believe that this year's rice will grow very well, and the harvest will be more than in previous years.

In fact, rice that has been nourished by the aura of heaven and earth will not only taste very delicious, but it can also be used as seeds in the future, and the rice grown will be better than ordinary rice.

Mo Changfeng had already thought about it, except for the rice he kept for his own food, all of which would be sold as seeds, and the price would naturally be much higher than that of ordinary millet.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of April, more than 30 loquat plants of the Mo family have matured, producing loquat trees that are larger than in previous years, and the color is golden and exudes a rich fragrance.

"Why are this year's loquat so delicious?" That evening, Wang Juhua picked a few loquat and went home, and after tasting it, her eyes widened and she couldn't help but exclaim.

"It's a little bigger than usual, but is it that delicious? I remember last year's loquat was still a little sour and couldn't be sold at all. Mo Shifu shook his head and said.

"If you don't believe it, try it yourself." Wang Juhua handed over a loquat.

Mo Shifu peeled off the skin carelessly, then tasted it, and then did not speak, quickly ate the rest of the pulp, and looked at Wang Juhua's eyes widened.

"Is this our loquat? Is it really that delicious? Mo Shifu asked incredulously.

"How not? I picked it back with my own hands, can I still have a fake? Wang Juhua said.

"Old woman, if this year's loquat is so delicious, it will definitely be able to be sold." Mo Shifu stood up suddenly and said excitedly.

"Dad, this year's loquat has been watered with some nutrient solution, so it tastes better. And not only the loquats, but also other fruit trees I have watered the nutrient solution. I'm going to sell loquat from tomorrow, so you don't have to worry about it. ”

At this time, Mo Changfeng came back and heard the conversation between his parents, and said to them with a smile, of course, the so-called nutrient solution is just his words, and he can't tell them that he has nourished the fruit tree with the aura of heaven and earth.

"Don't you want us to help? There are more than 30 loquat trees, I see that there are a lot of fruits on each tree, at least twenty or thirty catties, can you do it alone? Mo Shifu asked.

"No problem, you just wait and count the money." Mo Changfeng said with a smile.

"Last year, the good loquat on the street could be sold for eight yuan a catty, so that a tree could be sold for more than 200 yuan, and more than 30 trees could be sold for six or seven thousand yuan." Mo Shifu roughly calculated the account, and then his eyes widened, he didn't expect to be able to sell it for so much money.

"Dad, you're too little. Our loquat is different from other people's, and it must be sold for at least ten yuan a catty. Mo Changfeng shook his head and said.

The next day, he picked more than 100 catties of loquats, and did not pull them to the market, but directly to the intersection of Yulong Lake, and placed them on the side of the road to sell to passing vehicles.

"Brother, how did you sell your loquats?" As soon as the stall was set up, someone came over to ask.

"Twenty yuan a catty, no bargaining." Mo Changfeng said directly.

"What? Now loquat is sold everywhere, and the good ones are only ten yuan a catty, and the general six yuan and eight yuan can be bought. Is your loquat a fairy fruit, so expensive? ”

"Hehe, the name of my loquat is called fairy drunk, which means that the gods will be intoxicated when they eat it. You can taste one, and after tasting it, buy it or not. Mo Changfeng took a loquat and handed it to the other party.

"Then I'd like to taste it and see if your loquat is a fairy who will be intoxicated if you eat it?" The man took it as he spoke, peeled it and ate it, and then quickly finished eating, "Damn, I almost chewed my tongue." Brother, your loquat is too delicious, bring me three catties. ”

"Selling from five catties, this bag is five catties, a hundred yuan. Take it back and give it to your family to taste, and if you want to eat it when it's sold out, you'll have to wait until next year. Mo Changfeng held some loquat in a plastic bag and said to the man.

"Is it that delicious?" At this time, some people began to gather around.

"Everyone can taste one." Mo Changfeng was not stingy, if he wanted to promote it, he had to publicize it, and now he was afraid of the deep alley even if he was fragrant with wine, so he sent a loquat to anyone who came to ask.

"Oh my God, there are such delicious loquats? I feel like all the loquat I used to eat was in vain. One woman exclaimed.

"The taste is so beautiful, no wonder it is called fairy drunk, it really makes people want to eat it, it is just unstoppable." An elderly man nodded.
