Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 108 There is no fruit that is not suitable for planting (1940)

When Xu Yue's family rented land, they first contacted the villagers directly.

Later, when more houses were rented, they asked the village chief Xu Chengmin to intervene.

Xu Chengmin always gets things done properly.

"How much land do you plan to rent and how many people do you plan to hire?" Xu Chengmin asked.

As for the hilltop?

That's no problem.

After all, there are many hills in the village.

So he cares more about the former.

Especially when it comes to hiring people.

Look at Li Juemin's family. I heard that their income last month was nearly 10,000 yuan.

That's not what I did in January.

Not only get salary, but also bonus.

Xu Yue asked for 2,500 and 2,000, but he actually got more.

Of course, Li Weibin might not earn as much driving for him as he did before when he drove long distances, but now he basically only works half a day.

Easy, five thousand a month.

If you help out in the fields in the remaining time, you can get paid.

Many people in the village want to go.

As for farming, who in the village doesn’t know how to do it?

"About a hundred acres, preferably adjacent to the previous land." Xu Yue said, "As for people, let's hire a few first, giving priority to those who have rented land."

"Which hill do you like?" Xu Chengmin nodded and said.

"The back mountain can be next to that hilltop." Xu Yue said.

Xu Yue's house is backed by a mountain.

His home is closest to the peach orchard.

The hill that Xu Yue wanted to rent was adjacent to the back mountain, and their family had to pass through the middle of the two hills to get to Qinglongtan.

The hilltop and the bamboo forest rented by Xu Yue are in the shape of a Chinese character "品".

"Are you renting that hilltop to plant fruit trees or tea trees?" Xu Chengmin asked casually.

That hill is shorter than the hill behind it, but it's large enough.

But it is also a barren mountain.

"Raise rabbits!" Xu Yue said.

"Rabbits?" Xu Chengmin was stunned for a moment and said, "Rent a hill to raise rabbits?"

How to raise rabbits on a rented hill?

It would be more cost-effective to rent a piece of land and build a shed to raise the fish.

"Free range!" Xu Yue said, "If you raise them in cages, then you don't need to rent a mountain, but the rabbits you raise that way won't sell for much."

Won't run.
As soon as Xu Chengmin had this thought, he reacted immediately.

Why not just block it with a guardrail?

Isn’t that the back mountain and the bamboo forest?
"I'm just asking!" Xu Chengmin said, "That hilltop is just lying there, so why not rent it? Don't worry, the village won't charge you a high price."

"Then I'll trouble you, Fourth Grandpa."

Xu Yue smiled and chatted for a few more words, then left.

After the land rent is collected, fruit trees will be needed to set up the formation.

Why do you still choose fruit trees for your formation?

One is familiarity, and the other is high economic value.

Do you want to rent a few more hills to plant fruit trees?

An idea suddenly occurred to Xu Yue.

The business scope of the agricultural trade company obviously also includes fruits.

never mind!

Let’s finish the things at hand first.

Xu Yue then went to the tea mountain to take a look.

Just water it regularly for now.

Compared with chicken and duck farming and vegetable planting, there is obviously nothing to worry about.

After estimating the workload, Xu Yue prepared to divide the work among the hired workers.

However, let’s wait until we’ve settled the deal on the 100 acres of land.

How many people have been hired now?
Li Juemin and his family of three.

Xu Jiangjing and his family of two.

Zhou Zhenxing’s family of two.

Xu Jiangchuan and his wife, Xu Jiangzhong and Li Juechen
If we hire a few more people, there will be about ten to twenty people.

Managing so many people is naturally nothing to Xu Yue.

He also didn't think about managing it as a formal company.

Of course, it will be formalized sooner or later.

It just needs to be done step by step.

Managing villagers is obviously different from managing company employees. Just after I gave the pandas water, Song Yun called.

"Boss Song, do you know where we can buy dairy cows here?" Xu Yue asked.

"Boss Xu wants to raise dairy cows again?" Song Yun was a little surprised.

I haven't even found all your ducks for you, and I haven't even started raising those 2,000 sheep, and you want to raise cows?

You've spread your business a bit too wide.

You have to give me some time to grow!

I used to just sell chicks.

"I won't raise too many. I'm planning to raise two or three to drink fresh milk." Xu Yue said, "Of course, if I want to raise more in the future, that's a matter for the future."

"If there are two or three, I'll ask for you later." Song Yun said, "If there are more, I guess we'll have to find a solution from other places."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Boss Song." Xu Yue nodded.

He has been very busy lately and obviously doesn't want to waste time on this.

"When will we be able to get these ducks?" Xu Yue continued to ask, "It doesn't matter if it's more or less."

Twenty thousand, obviously there is no need to be so precise.

There are more than 10,000 now, so a few less doesn’t matter.

"I think I can help you with it in the next few days." Song Yun said, "The sheep issue is almost done."

Song Yun left in a hurry again.

He is really busy.

Xu Yue was about to go back when he met Zhang Ruoxi on the way.

"Just buy a few pots of aloe vera?" Xu Yue said, "Why don't you drive Dad's pickup truck?"

"I'm not familiar with manual transmission." Zhang Ruoxi said, "Besides, a few pots will be enough, so let's try it first. If the effect is good, we can expand the planting area. The merchant has already been contacted, and they can deliver it when the time comes."

Not used to driving a manual transmission?

Xu Yue's mouth twitched, but he was not surprised.

Are there manual transmission luxury cars?

Xu Yue didn't know.

However, it seems that none of Zhang Ruoxi's luxury cars have manual transmission.

After moving the pots of aloe vera back, Xu Yue got some spiritual soil to replace the aloe vera, and then watered them with some spiritual rain water.

Of course, it is also necessary to infuse those pots of aloe vera with spirit for cultivation.

"In the house?"

Seeing Xu Yue's actions, Zhang Ruoxi asked, with some doubt in her words.

"If you put it outside, you won't be afraid of being bullied by those three giant pandas." Xu Yue said.

"Giant pandas eat aloe vera?" Zhang Ruoxi said, "That shouldn't be the case. Aloe vera needs to be placed in a sunny place."

"Okay!" Xu Yue said, "Then put it outside, not on the balcony. Giant pandas don't eat aloe vera, but won't it destroy it?"

"it is good!"

Zhang Ruoxi nodded.

Those three giant pandas can do a lot of damage.

She had seen it before: the little panda fell down after climbing a wicker chair, and then smashed the chair in a rage.

She was so scared that she held back for a long time before stroking it.

"Rent?"

Zhang Ruoxi put the aloe vera away and casually asked about Xu Yue.

"I've mentioned it to Fourth Grandpa, and I think it can be done today." Xu Yue said.

Xu Chengmin naturally knew who those lands belonged to.

Since Xu Yue offers a high rent, people generally won’t refuse it.

After all, most of those lands are abandoned.

Before, many people came to Xu Yue’s family and wanted them to rent their land for farming.

"The hill you rented?"

Zhang Ruoxi pointed to the hill next to her and said.

"Ok!"

Xu Yue nodded.

If the hilltop was not suitable for growing tea trees, Xu Yue would have rented it earlier.

"Wouldn't it be a waste to just raise rabbits?" Zhang Ruoxi said, "We can follow the example of the mountain behind us! Plant fruit trees, plant grass underneath them, and then raise rabbits."

"Good suggestion!" Xu Yue nodded and said, "What kind of fruit do you like?"

"That depends on what's suitable for growing here!" Zhang Ruoxi said, "It seems that suitable fruits are available in the back mountain, right?"

"Even if it's not suitable for cultivation, I can still find a way to make it suitable," Xu Yue said. "The saying 'oranges grown in the south of the Huai River are oranges, while those grown in the north of the Huai River are tangerines' doesn't exist with me!"

"Really?"

Zhang Ruoxi looked at Xu Yue in surprise.

"You can try it!" Xu Yue said with a smile.

"A few mango and lychee trees, maybe?" Xu Yue said. "By the way, have you ever thought about planting some watermelons, cantaloupes, strawberries, or something like that?"
