On June 1st, the wheat harvest work in Huajia officially started.
It rained two days ago, and just as we could work in the fields, Hua Youcai made the decision to start harvesting without waiting.
All the strong laborers from the three brothers of the Hua family came, a total of nine people.
Hua Youwei brought his sons Hua Qingguo and Hua Qingjia, Hua Youde brought his two sons Hua Zhufu and Hua Zhuhao, Hua Youzhi brought Hua Hechun and Hua Heqiu, and the group was just as grand as last time, carrying many bags.
Hua Youcai looked at the bedding, washbasin and other things that his elder brother had brought back intact, and was speechless. What was he trying to achieve? !
Hua Youcai slept in the same room with his three brothers. The younger ones lived on the same kang with Jiang Pangpang and his friends. Hua Fangfang slept in her elder sister's study.
Before the wheat harvest, the family held a meeting to arrange the work.
Wheat harvesting in the fields, transportation on the road, threshing in the market, and drying wheat on the highway are divided into four major areas. The five of Li Yi and the nine newcomers from Hua's family are scattered in these four areas.
With just one task, he led the odd jobs to successfully complete the wheat harvest work in the Hua family.
Hua Yuanyuan is in charge of logistics. In addition to three meals, there is another meal in the middle of the night if the wheat is threshed overnight. If one meal is not enough, another meal will be added.
Liuzhuangzi and Shili Village started at the same time, Hua Fangfang was in Liuzhuangzi and Hua Youcai was in the village.
It was still grey in the morning, smoke was rising from the chimney of the workshop. Breakfast consisted of steamed buns and eggs, and mung bean water was served all day.
Boiled eggs are served in pots, two per person, and those who are not full can help themselves to the extra ones.
They worked quickly before the sun came out. There was a row of tractors and ox carts waiting to transport the wheat at the edge of the field.
The people in front were cutting the fruits, and the people behind were bundling them, loading them directly onto the truck, which was soon full.
The car was pulled directly to the threshing floor, where the people had already cleaned it and the thresher was also in place.
Just unload the truck and start threshing the wheat.
Bags of wheat grains were packed into bags, loaded up onto oxcarts waiting nearby, and pulled to the road nearby.
The people here have already swept the road clean. Wheat is drying on both sides of the road, and there is a road in the middle for people and cars to walk.
This is the Hua family’s wheat harvest process.
The staffing arrangements for these four major areas can be fine-tuned. If it is found that there is not enough wheat to supply the thresher, additional staff will be temporarily added to harvest the wheat.
The plan is to focus on harvesting the wheat, first harvesting it and transporting it to the market, and then working overtime to thresh the wheat at night.
Therefore, the most manpower is needed to harvest wheat, and they must take a break in between, as people cannot be like machines.
At night, guards were arranged at the fields and on the roads.
Conservatively assuming that one acre of land can produce one thousand kilograms of fruit, the Hua family's actual output is definitely more than that.
The soil and seeds that have been improved by space will not disappoint.
Hua Youcai wanted to cut off an acre of land and calculate the exact number, but his daughter stopped him.
Just say that your land is good enough, why do you have to work on it in such detail? In the end you can just look at how much it is sold for and work backwards to find the answer.
Well, if you don't want to do it, forget it.
My daughter said that it was her first large-scale wheat harvest and she had no experience, so no matter how careful she was, mistakes would still happen.
Otherwise, the steamed bun business would not have been suspended. The Hua family has never stopped the steamed bun business except for weather reasons.
The competitors have tasted the sweetness these days. It would be great if the Hua family could harvest wheat all the time...
It took three days to harvest all the wheat on hundreds of acres of land.
The road that passes through the two villages extends to both sides, and is full of Hua family's wheat.
The villagers in charge of drying the wheat wore straw hats and waded the wheat diligently.
Lunch and dinner are both main dishes, all of which are made from pigs slaughtered that day, two pigs a day.
The stew is full of meat, which is just arrogant.
The wheat was dried for five days, and it rained in the middle. The plastic we prepared came in handy, as we had to harvest it during the thunderstorm.
After drying, the warehouse was filled up, and the rest was directly taken to the grain station.
Several grain stations in the surrounding towns and villages received grain from the Hua family. A pound of wheat cost 0.239 yuan, compared with a little more than 0.1 cent per pound last year. The Hua family made a fortune.
The Hua family benefited from the national policy regulation.
If the Hua family did not sell the grain to the grain station, but sold it privately, the price would be a bit higher. Hua Yuanyuan found it troublesome, so she only asked Li Yi and the others to sell some of it when they sold vegetables, and the majority of the grain was sold to the grain station.
The wheat harvest in Huajia was completed, and the surrounding areas had to wait for another two days before the wheat harvest began.
There was another thing happening during this period. Many people found the Hua family and wanted to exchange wheat seeds with them.
They are all experienced farmers. The difference between Hua's family's wheat and their own is too obvious. Each ear of wheat is heavy.
Although the Hua family deliberately staggered the time and harvested early, it did not affect the yield and the wheat grew.
If you want to change the wheat seeds, that’s fine. Wait until you have free time after this busy period.
There is no rush to plant the crops. I will wait until the wheat harvest in the surrounding areas is over.
The Hua family still used the relatively easy old method and burned the wheat stubble in the field directly.
The village cadres who came to help during the wheat harvest started to have contact with Hua's family because they came to Hua's house in the winter to learn greenhouse technology.
This time, the Hua family needed a lot of people, so they hired people from the surrounding villages.
The village cadres said they were there to help and didn’t ask for any money.
The Hua family could only give a return gift of two bottles of Moutai, a pound of tea, a pack of cigarettes, a snack box from a time-honored Beijing brand, a piece of pork, and a bag of greenhouse vegetables.
Li Yi and his team helped harvest the wheat from Li Chunlan's and other families' fields, as well as Uncle Zhang's fields.
In addition, there were several families in the village who were short of manpower, so Li Yi and his friends went to help.
At this time, students have their wheat harvest holiday and villagers start their busy farming season. Just like last year, the Hua family can make a small profit during the busy farming season.
Hua Yuanyuan also saw how real money was packed in sacks. There were sacks piled on the floor outside her house, and they had not been counted yet.
The villagers had not yet finished harvesting the wheat when it started raining again.
The three members of the Hua family were counting money at home, while Hua Youwei was catching up on his sleep on the kang.
When selling grain, except for the tractor driver, all the people employed were family members.
…
After the final count, the total was 170,000 with some decimals.
Hua Youcai couldn't close his mouth at all. They would never be able to spend so much money in their lifetime.
Look at the silly son who is holding a wad of money and sniffing it, and the look in the daughter's eyes when she looks at her son... Oh my! !
"When you've had enough, go wash your hands before touching other places."
She loves money but thinks it is dirty. This is my own daughter.
"Yeah, let me touch it again."
Hua Fangfang was not satisfied yet. He began to understand why his elder sister liked to rent wasteland for farming.
It’s really profitable, so much money all of a sudden, it’s so different from the feeling of selling buns.
He was grinning from ear to ear, his eyes were shining, and his whole body was filled with joy.
Hua Fangfang expresses her truest feelings nakedly.
"Dad, sister, let's rent some more wasteland!"
It’s never enough, no matter how much you earn, it’s never enough, you always want to earn more.
"Okay, no problem."
"If you're not too tired, let's make some more."
"Hey, sister, seeing this money makes me less tired."
"Okay, let Uncle Dong see if there is a suitable house. I will buy you a big yard so you can get married!!"
Hua Fangfang..., I knew that my sister's reward would be another broken house!
