Chapter 117 Fruit Freedom
Fat chef Chen Huai studies the skills of making ham.
He Zhengchen discussed things with Shen Qingyue: "I've already contacted the vegetable seller. They'll deliver a truckload every three days. They have a large truck. The price is a little higher than the local price, but it's still within an acceptable range and there's still profit to be made."
Shen Qingyue nodded. He Zhengchen continued, "Also, we'll be taking the lead in building the vegetable greenhouse. Experts from the provincial agricultural college will be here to provide personal guidance."
When Shen Qingyue mentioned the experts from the Agricultural College, she asked, "Can you bring some melon and fruit seedlings or something?"
He Zhengchen said: "Sure, I know someone who does this."
Shen Qingyue said: "Then I will buy a piece of land and do this specifically."
There is no shortage of vegetables in the village, but there are not many fruits. For example, in summer, there are big, crisp and sweet watermelons, as well as various honeydew melons, peaches, plums, apples and strawberries.
I can't even think about this thing, it makes me drool.
There are fruit stalls in the county, but they only sell apples and pears all year round. Other fruits are expensive, delicate, and difficult to transport. If you want to eat other fruits, you can only buy canned fruits.
But for those who have enjoyed fresh fruits in later generations, the refreshing and sweet taste of fresh fruits cannot be compared with canned fruits.
Shen Qingyue simply wanted to eat it.
Now that I make a lot of money every day, I want to achieve fruit freedom.
He Zhengchen said, "I know a fruit farmer who can sell seedlings that are more than eight years old and will bear fruit that same year."
Shen Qingyue couldn't sit still anymore after hearing this.
Go and discuss this matter with the village chief immediately.
He Zhengchen's "vegetable greenhouse plan" also needs to be discussed with the village chief.
So the two of them went to find the village chief together.
Shen Qingyue is now a celebrity in the village, and everyone is watching her every move.
Seeing Shen Qingyue go to see the village chief again, he quickly looked for someone he knew well and said, "What's going on? Is this, is this, another barbecue festival?"
You can make money and broaden your horizons at the same time, so the more festivals like this the better.
"Not necessarily. The last barbecue festival just ended." Everyone said this and kept looking for the village party secretary, hoping that someone would give them some information.
Who would have thought that after the village party secretary found out, he rushed to the village committee and wanted to hear what was going on.
The villagers who came to inquire about the matter looked at each other in confusion.
They didn't talk for too long, probably just over half an hour.
Shen Qingyue was holding a list in her hand, which was for buying land.
It just so happened that Old Zhao from the village wanted to sell an acre of land. Shen Qingyue bought it and was about to go over to take a look.
The village chief asked the village party secretary to take her to see it.
After Shen Qingyue gave the eight hundred yuan to Old Zhao, the formalities were completed quickly.
The village chief has come out, but he hasn’t figured out how to tell the villagers yet.
Some villagers took the initiative to ask.
When the village chief saw the people coming, he was also stunned. There were so many people. There must be dozens of them.
"What did Shen Qingyue say just now?"
Everyone in the village knew that she was no ordinary person, so she must have something to do with the village chief. I just didn’t know if it had anything to do with them!
Everyone looked at the village chief with shining eyes.
The village chief said, "Shen Qingyue is in dire need of leafy greens. She's already bought some from other provinces and brought them here by truck. So, we're thinking of building a few vegetable greenhouses in the village. Anyone interested can sign up, and then experts from the province will come over to provide guidance."
This sentence made everyone look at each other in confusion: "What is a vegetable greenhouse?"
"There are experts in farming, right? I don't need any guidance. I've been growing vegetables all my life. Who can be more professional than us? It's a joke."
"What does that mean? Why don't you grow crops on such good land?" There is also a contempt chain for farmers in the village.
To grow vegetables, you just need to reclaim a piece of waste land. Good land is used to grow crops.
If we use good land to grow vegetables, wouldn’t that be a waste of people?
The old ideas of the village still permeate everyone.
But before everyone had time to think about it, the wife of the Li family said, "Village chief, I want to sign up. Here are my six acres of good farmland." Without being modest, she said that whatever she sowed would yield a good harvest.
When everyone saw that she agreed, they immediately said, "Mrs. Li, have you discussed this with your family? This is no joke."
The Li family's wife said, "This is our land, so what I say counts."
She paused and said, "What a coincidence! I was planning to plant late corn."
The harvest time is staggered by one month, so when the grain is sold, six acres of land can be sold for more than 600 yuan.
This happened just when she hadn't planted any crops on her land yet.
It's so unexpected and unpredictable, as if it was specially tailor-made for me.
Although the wife of the Li family doesn't talk much in the village, she sees everything in her heart. Shen Qingyue has now become a leader. She builds houses and buys cars. She even has a position in the county at the barbecue festival.
Although she is not smart, there is no problem for her to follow smart people.
The villagers don't like change. If there is any change, it will take ten days or half a month to discuss it. It has become a routine.
But the daughter-in-law of the Li family was the first to respond, which made the others feel a little anxious.
"Let my family sign up too." This is a decision to make first and ask for permission later, so that you don't end up not being able to sign up.
"Hey. Your family is engaged in farming, right? So... you signed up?"
"Aren't there experts? Let's ask them when the time comes."
With these words, the other people in the village seemed to be awakened and kept saying: "Village Chief, please register for me."
"And me."
"I want to sign up too."
In just a quarter of an hour, more than twenty people signed up.
