Chapter 64 Agricultural Assistance Program
After Yunfeng communicated with the staff over there, after waiting for the time, the four of them rushed to Gansu by high-speed rail.
On the way here, everyone saw a desolate view outside the car window.
Some places are real deserts, with yellow sand and bustling with plants growing on them.
Before coming, everyone also checked the situation here, it is very arid and water-scarce, and there are many deserts.
The local government has also vigorously carried out desertification prevention and control actions, and the results are beginning to be effective.
Honeydew melon is one of the local sand-control crops.
The local honeydew melon requires less water, has a strong ability to retain water, and can stabilize the soil and prevent sand, which is very suitable for local cultivation.
Moreover, the temperature difference between day and night here reaches 20 degrees, and the sunshine hours are more than 12 hours a day, which makes the sweetness of the melon very high.
Previously, Yunfeng and they also received honeydew melons sent from the local area, and they all tasted them, and they also thought they were very delicious.
When they arrived at the high-speed rail station, everyone took the car again, and finally arrived at the destination of this live broadcast, Zhouqin County.
They were greeted at the station by the staff in charge of the program.
Under the leadership of the staff, everyone stayed in a hotel in the county.
In addition to them, there are also several anchors who have come from other places to live in the hotel.
Everyone met and got to know each other.
The fans of these anchors are more or less, but they are all specialized in helping farmers live broadcast.
There are many anchors like Yunfeng all over the country.
After resting at the hotel, Yunfeng and the others went out for a turn.
Zhouqin County is not large, and a large area is desert and farmland.
"Let's go to the desert." Guo Sheng proposed.
"You're a photographer, you go wherever you say." Yunfeng laughed.
After a short time, several people left the city and went into the desert.
As far as the eye can see, there is an endless stretch of yellow sand with plants growing on it.
The four of them walked inside for a while, and Guo Sheng was in charge of shooting video materials for propaganda.
At this time, a watermill drove into the desert and stopped on the side of the road.
Five people got off the waterwheel.
Yun Feng walked up and asked, "Big brother, what are you doing here?" ”
The man at the head said, "Water the shuttle." ”
"What is Suosuo?" Yunfeng asked.
The man stepped aside, pointed to a small sapling on the ground, and said, "This is the Saxon tree." ”
"Who planted this?"
"This is what we planted."
"Do you need to pull the water over for watering?"
"yes."
"Doesn't it rain in the sky?"
"It's going to be a little bit down, it's not going to work at all."
"Are all the Suosuo trees over here watered by you?"
The eldest brother explained: "Yes, yes, water enough for two to three years, and when the shuttle grows up, you don't need to water." ”
"Big brother, then you guys are busy first."
The eldest brother pulled down the water pipe from the car, one person stood in the car and stared at the valve, and the others took the water pipe and started running around.
The small saplings on the ground are only a dozen centimeters tall and grow in a soil pit.
The man took a hose and watered the pit until the pit had overflowed, and then went to the next pit where the saplings of the saplings had grown.
Yun Feng watched from the side for a while, and wanted to try it too.
"I'll ask my eldest brother if he can let me play."
Ah Wen smiled when she heard this: "You want to play with everything." ”
Yun Feng stepped forward and shouted, "Big brother, you let me try it too." ”
"Okay, here you go."
Yunfeng ran over, took the water pipe from the eldest brother's hand, and also began to water the shuttle tree on the ground.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew and rolled up the yellow sand on the ground.
Yunfeng hurriedly closed his eyes.
After watering this area, the car continues to drive forward and water the next area.
Yunfeng played for a while and returned the water pipe to the locals.
"It's so hard, this watering is very tiring, and that water pipe is very heavy." Yun Feng wiped the sweat from his face.
"Can you compare to others?" Ah Wen gave him a blank look.
Yun Feng took out the camera from his bag and said, "I'll take pictures of them, or do my professional work." ”
He walked up to an aunt and shouted, "Auntie, I'll take a picture of you!" ”
The aunt smiled and didn't refuse.
Yunfeng took a few steps back, picked up the camera and pointed it at the aunt, and pressed the shutter.
After taking pictures of this aunt, Yunfeng took pictures of everyone else one after another.
Ah Wen on the side has already prepared the printer and photo frame.
The photos were printed out and put into a photo frame on the spot, and Yunfeng gave the photos to these people.
Several people continued to look at the scenery around them.
After the group finished watering, Yunfeng found the big brother.
"Big brother, how many years have you been like this?"
"It's been more than ten years." Big Brother Dao.
"I've heard that your people here have been planting trees for generations, haven't I?"
The eldest brother said: "Yes, you can't plant trees, it's all desert, and when the wind blows, your mouth is full of sand, and now it's okay to plant trees, and when you planted trees, everyone used to carry this water with a burden." ”
"When are you going to plant a tree like this? Do you plant the whole desert and turn it green? ”
The eldest brother sighed: "Impossible, the desert is too big." ”
Yun Feng also sighed a little in his heart.
The desert they saw today was endless.
In Guo Sheng's aerial footage with a drone, there is very little green.
This is already the result of decades of hard work by the locals.
But they still insisted on planting trees, and everyone didn't stop.
"I'm sure you'll make it." Yunfeng laughed.
The eldest brother smiled: "Now young people are reluctant to come back, they are all working outside, the environment here is too bad, if it is planted from generation to generation, there is still hope, but now it is much better than before, there was not even a single grass before." ”
The eldest brother had a simple smile on his dark face.
"Then do you grow honeydew melons?"
"If you plant it, you can make money by selling honeydew melons." The eldest brother laughed.
Yun Feng chatted with his eldest brother for a while, then got up to say goodbye.
"It's not easy for people here, this melon, we have to sell it to them." Yunfeng said in a deep voice.
The income of the local people basically depends on this honeydew melon, and everyone earns more when it sells well.
Yunfeng learned from his eldest brother that in order to prevent sand and fix sand, many young people also stayed in the local area to plant honeydew melons.
On the one hand, there can be income, and on the other hand, it can also govern the environment.
Everyone's hearts were a little heavy, everyone didn't expect this to be such a scene.
It's just so desolate.
The people who can stick to this place are all deeply in love with this land.
In the afternoon, the launching ceremony of the agricultural assistance program was held.
The local government and the official personnel of the short video platform, as well as anchors like Yunfeng, signed the contract on the spot.
The anchors also rushed to the arranged live broadcast site with their respective teams.
The local farmers are also very well prepared, from the planting of the melons to the final packaging, everything has been taken care of.
For them, the hardest part is how to sell the goods.
Yunfeng and they entered the melon field, Guo Sheng prepared the camera and shouted: "I said three-two-one, start!" ”
"Three-two-one!"
Yunfeng said to the camera: "Hello friends, I am Yunfeng, my current location is Zhouqin County, Gansu Province, and what I recommend to you today is the local honeydew melon, Zhouqin County is located in the northeast of the Hexi Corridor, which is the confluence of the two deserts of Tengger Badanjilin, composed of four landforms: desert, Gobi hills and plains......"
Yun Feng faced the camera, finished the pre-prepared lines, and finished shooting the first promotional video.
After the video was filmed, Guo Sheng edited it on the spot and released it.
Yunfeng is not idle here, and the live broadcast has begun.
Around the entire melon field, there is a lively scene.
More than a dozen anchors are helping to bring goods here.
It wasn't until it got dark that Yunfeng ended the live broadcast this time.
On the other side, Xu Tian and Ah Wen were communicating with the local staff about the delivery.
They have to print out the express delivery slip and hand it over to the warehouse personnel to post the order for delivery.
After a busy day, everyone returned to the hotel to rest in the evening.
There was no small talk, only exhaustion.
Early the next morning, everyone was full of energy and started the live broadcast again.
The live broadcast lasted for a week.
On the last day, the live broadcast ended, and Yun Feng was tired and collapsed on the chair.
Guo Sheng and the others are also similar.
Yun Feng took a sip of water and muttered, "How much has it been sold?" ”
Xu Tian said casually: "Thirty thousand orders." ”
Yun Feng slammed up from his chair and said in shock, "So many? ”
Honeydew melon can be different from other small fruits, a single weight is a lot, 30,000 orders, and the honey sold is hundreds of thousands of catties.
At this time, a farmer came up with a plate in his hand with a cut melon.
"You've worked hard, come and take a few bites."
"Thank you." Yunfeng laughed.
The farmer said, "We want to thank you, if it weren't for you, how would we be able to sell so many melons." ”
"We'll be here to help you sell it next year." Yunfeng laughed.
The farmer smiled: "You are from Shaanxi, right?" Where is Shaanxi? ”
"How do you know we're from Shaanxi?" Yun Feng was surprised.
"I can hear your accent as soon as I hear it." The farmer laughed.
"We are from Xi'an." Cloud Wind Channel.
The farmer said: "I know Xi'an, I used to go there often. ”
"What did you do in Xi'an before?"
The farmer said: "We couldn't sell melons before, so I drove around with melons, first to Lanzhou, and if Lanzhou couldn't sell them, I went to Xi'an and ran around." ”
"Is it profitable?" Yunfeng asked.
The farmer shook his hand and said, "If you don't make money, you won't make money at all by running by yourself, unlike now when you help sell, this is much more money than before." ”
"The main thing is that your melons are delicious."
The farmer said: "That's necessary, we have a good environment here, honeydew melons grow well, or thank you, you are so good, with you, we melon farmers only use to grow melons, and don't worry about selling melons, and we make more money than before." ”
Yun Feng smiled: "We are middlemen, and we have made your money." ”
The melon farmer said: "You earn yours, I earn mine, this is different, without you, my melons can't be sold, and it saves us trouble, and we don't have to run around." ”
"Uncle, let me take a picture of you."
"No need to take a picture."
"Just a moment."
Yunfeng chatted for a while, and the fatigue on his body disappeared a lot, so he ran to get the camera, took a photo of the uncle, and gave the photo to the uncle.
