Chapter 169 169. Picking Tremella Fungus

Of course, limiting watermelon varieties depends not only on market demand, but also on whether the family has enough labor to manage it.

For example, the early-maturing varieties that the boss highly recommended at the beginning, one melon per vine, do not require careful care.

Those that can have two or three melons per plant require more effort.

Pruning to encourage flowers and fruits...all takes effort.

Song Tan calculated the time in his mind——

"Boss, here are 12,000 early-maturing seedlings and 2,500 mid-maturing seedlings."

"You can deliver them to my home before six-thirty tomorrow morning, okay?"

Alas, if I hadn't sold some bamboo shoots and a few kilograms of tea, I would have been short of money to buy seedlings.

Times are really hard.

OK, why not? !

With such a big business, the boss was so excited that he trembled with excitement. Even at the wholesale price of 35 cents per tree, he could still earn close to 5,000 yuan!

Oops, we don’t have enough seedlings in our own greenhouse, so we have to quickly find relatives to get more.

but……

The boss looked at her worriedly: "Girl, your family has ten or twenty acres of land to grow watermelons? Have you found a shipping channel?"

"If you don't find a good one, don't plant so many, it's a big risk!"

With twenty acres of land, if a melon like this is taken care of well, it is possible to produce three thousand kilograms per mu. This is not a small amount! If you lose, it will break your muscles and bones!

When it comes to farming, you can never just sow the seeds, plant the seedlings and wait for the harvest. During this period, fertilizers and pesticides were applied manually and managed, and natural and man-made disasters had to be dealt with from time to time, which was very risky.

Often a year's worth of time has been invested in it, and the house's foundation has also been damaged. Suddenly there was a heavy rain, and the watermelons exploded in the field...

Which watermelon grower has never encountered this kind of thing?

Besides, this thing is put on the market in large quantities every year. If you plant so many watermelons without negotiating a good channel, it is very likely that the watermelons will not be sold and will rot in the ground.

At the end of that year, all the hard work has been wasted, and that’s the end of it.

The boss wants to make money, but in business, it is best for everyone to be prosperous so that they can have continuous and stable income.

…

What is the shipping channel? Nowadays, apart from setting up stalls for online shopping, there is nothing else.

However, Song Tan was not worried and could only nod with determination at this moment:

"Don't worry, it's all settled."

"Okay, okay, okay, okay!"

The boss instantly beamed.

Although many times you will suffer some losses if you negotiate the price in advance, it is better to be safe.

In this way, I only need to maintain quality and quantity, and there are other seedlings in my own greenhouse to maintain customers and develop sustainably.

Alas, there are so many things to worry about when doing business these days.

…

When I got home, I saw the two men driving their tricycles happily.

Song Tan looked at her father who was reluctant to move on the tricycle, and couldn't help laughing: "Dad, didn't you say you bought it for my Uncle Zhang? Why can't you just ride it yourself?"

Song Sancheng felt confident now: "Uncle Zhang, your legs and feet are inconvenient. Just let me help you with any work. You can't bully others like this, right?"

Okay, all interpretation rights belong to the owner.

Of course it's what dad said.

but……

"Dad, we need to find twenty more people to go up the mountain to help plant watermelons tomorrow."

Song Sancheng was riding on the car and couldn't help but frown again: these twenty people came and waved their hoes, and the four thousand yuan was gone.

He was a little hesitant: "Farming watermelons is easier than the last time. How about we do it for 150 days?"

Song Tan thought for a while: "No need, dad, we are all from the same village. We always have work to do, and we don't have to make trouble if everyone is jealous."

Furthermore, one person's workload from morning to night is six to seven hundred trees, which is not easy to calculate.

The money should be generous, and everyone should be more careful in planting the seeds.

With twenty acres of mountain land, there will be plenty of room for the folks to use in the future.

Song Sancheng understands the hardships of farming better than Song Tan. This is just a mention, but now it is nothing more.

After he finished speaking, he stepped on the accelerator again, and the tricycle made a slight roar: "I'll go to the back mountain and tell your Uncle Zhang to prepare more fat when I have time."

This is not just to say something, it is clearly to show off!

Song Tan swallowed the unfinished words in his mouth, and now he had to change the topic: "Seventh cousin, I will have to work hard for you tomorrow."

The seventh cousin snorted: "This is what we do, no matter how hard it is. I am born!"

"If you really feel sorry for yourself, didn't you say that the white fungus on the mountain has grown? Hurry up and pick a basket. While the weather is nice these two days, I will dry it and stew it."

This thing is like black fungus. It cannot be eaten immediately after being picked. It has to go through a drying or drying process.

Grandma Qi is old, her teeth are normal, and Tremella fungus is good for her stomach. Cousin Qi has been thinking about this for a long time.

Song Tan smiled: "Okay, I'll go up the mountain right away."

"Wait a minute," he pointed at Jojo, who was holding a tablet and watching Ultraman with great interest: "There is nothing left to do now, so let's take him there too. It will be beneficial to gain more exposure."

Qiao Qiao has been brought along, is Zhang Yanping still missing?

So the three of them each had a basket and a sharp bamboo knife, and headed up the mountain in high spirits.

Before leaving, Song Youde stopped him: "Tan Tan? Is the basket heavy? Why don't you put it on the back seat of my car and I can take it up to you?"

Song Tan:......

How heavy can an empty basket be? You just want to show off by riding a bike? But Grandpa, you can only sit one person on the back seat. It’s another matter whether these three baskets can be stacked or not!

Zhang Yanping sighed: "That mountain is all my hard work."

What hard work? Didn’t I just spend some effort when I planted golden cherries?

Song Tan was too lazy to say anything.

After a while, he pointed forward and said: "Look, your hard work has bloomed. Can't you pick two to take home?"

The golden cherries planted in March are growing vigorously. With the spiritual energy, they are growing like crazy, sprouting leaves and buds.

When they were planted, they were trimmed like a short stake. Now the long branches and vines have hung on the fence.

The white and yellow stamen flowers are fairy-like. If you smell them up close, you can smell the fresh fragrance!

No wonder there are bees buzzing around even if there are only a few sparse flowers.

"This flower is so big!" Qiao Qiao immediately came forward and gestured: "When will there be more flowers? I'll bring Daxiong here."

It's a pity that no one praised him for his careful observation.

Song Tan had also entered the chestnut forest and started picking white fungus from the neatly arranged mushroom sticks in the forest.

This was the first batch of white fungus, and the size was not very big. It seemed that it had not spread out at all.

The largest one was only the size of a duck egg.

The sharp little bamboo knife picked such a big white fungus and stuck it to the root. With just a little force, it instantly cut them into the basket.

I was so sleepy, but after thinking about it, I still struggled to write it down...

Isn't my spirit commendable!
