Chapter 225 The most valuable thing is yourself
Yan Shenjue only wrote the Thousand Character Essay. After all, he would not be able to live in this house for a few more days, so he would have to write more when he moved into the new house.
After finishing writing, Yan Shenjue rode his horse and took her to the neighboring village to cut grape branches. To be precise, he went to watch other people cut grape branches.
After all, grape cuttings need to be made from hard branches. If you want to plant two large greenhouses, one or two grape vines are not enough to prune.
Normally, the survival rate of grape cuttings is highest in summer, and it is barely acceptable in spring. However, I have never heard of cuttings at this time. But everything is easy now that the money is in place. Brother Yuan has made all the contacts, and all the people have to do is cut the grapes. Everything went smoothly except that when the owner looked at them, his eyes were full of "stupid people with a lot of money", so everything went smoothly.
N-shaped racks have been set up in the grape trellis, and ridges have to be made before grafting. Brother Tang specially dug some sand and mixed it into the ridge soil to ensure good drainage.
The cut branches should have leaves, and should be as long as your little finger. Cut the bottom at an angle. After inserting the branches, press the soil firmly and water them thoroughly.
This was not a difficult job for the farmers. They planted two sheds as if it was a piece of cake, and then went to plant vegetables. Xinbao and Yan Shenjue strolled back and forth between the sheds.
Tuanzi thought he didn't reveal anything, but a glutinous rice dumpling always hides somewhere, with its little head tilted, its big eyes blinking, secretly peeking at you. It's so adorable that several farmers all smile like uncles.
But Yan Xiaolang's reputation as a person who is not easy to mess with is well-known in Yutang Village. With him standing by, no one dared to come and tease her.
Xinbao couldn't hold anything in his mind now, and waited anxiously, watching several times, and finally when they finished and left, Xinbao couldn't wait to pull Yan Shenjue's hand and went in, while stretching out his little hand to him, asking him to roll up his sleeves, and said: "Brother Xiaoxian, keep watch for me! If someone comes, you must call me quickly! "
Her little face was serious.
Yan Xiaolang was so cute that he pursed his lips and pretended to be serious: "Okay, don't worry."
Xinbao then ran over and arranged the grape branches one by one. She herself didn't know how to tell which ones she had planted. These farmers worked very hard and vigorously, and they stomped the ground very firmly. Yan Shenjue was helpless and could only get an iron pestle to help her loosen the soil first, and then let her go through it again.
For Tuanzi, this was not a small job. It took him more than an hour to finish one row.
Xinbao was covered in dirt. She sat down to drink water. Her little face was red from exhaustion. Yan Shenjue said to her, "We won't dig the next row. Just touch each one and mark it. Don't touch the ones at the bottom. We'll compare them."
Xinbao nodded.
So the two of them did an experiment.
Moreover, there are really a lot of idle people in this kind of rural area. While they were planting, people would come to see their grape racks from time to time, so Xinbao only modified one shed, and then asked Taiping to guard it outside and not allow anyone to enter. Others could only go to see the other shed.
When they went to check again the next day, the ones that Xinbao and Yan Shenjue had dug up, and those that Xinbao had only touched briefly, were all growing vigorously. They had grown a small part and looked similar, but in the same shed, the ones that Xinbao had not touched basically did not grow, but they did not look dead either.
Normally it takes two or three years for grapes to bear fruit after being grafted. However, if the grapes grown by Xinbao grow five or six times faster than normal plants, then this year... it is possible that they will bear fruit for them to see.
At the same time, Brother Tang also used this time to talk about "who planted precious herbs" and "who planted precious flowers", and then, under the advice of several mature and steady uncles, he "suddenly realized" and decided to build a fence.
In this way, Xinbao can wait until the fence is finished before tidying up the grapes in the other greenhouse.
Yan Shenjue didn't care about these things at first, but because he had been staying at the Tang family for the past two days, and sometimes heard a few words from Tang Qingshan and Big Brother Tang, he realized that even these tiny things had their own tricks. Just a few more words would make the result very different.
If you put up a fence directly, they will think that you are defending against them and that they are turning their backs on you.
But now, they only think that they are guarding against naughty children and thieves. After all, these things do not belong to the Tang family. There are naughty children in the family who don’t know the seriousness of the matter. If they accidentally break them, they can’t afford to pay for it.
At this moment, Mrs. Lin also accepted the task and spread the word that after the New Year, they would invite a teacher for the fifth and sixth children.
Release him in advance so that everyone can envy him first, and also have the concept of a gentleman belonging to the Tang family. Then, when the time comes, Tang Qingshan will go to the old patriarch and say that the children of the clan can come to school, and everyone will be grateful.
It’s not that I want their gratitude, but since I’ve done it, why should it be taken for granted?
Yan Shenjue thought about these little things that he usually never took to heart and actually found them a bit interesting. This was truly a rare experience for him.
Brother Tang came in and asked with a smile: "Are you going to the county town? I heard from Brother Dayuan that Silang is selling flowers and he's doing pretty well. Shall we go take a look?"
Xinbao stood up immediately: "Let's go and have a look! What if Fourth Brother doesn't know how to sell it?"
She is so busy! She is needed here! She is needed there too!
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
A few days ago, Brother Tang and Brother Tang IV took the contract to the Shen family. Master Shen smiled when he saw the contract, but he didn't say much. He asked Huo Yuntao to sign it with them.
Brother Tang came here to represent Tang Qingshan, and he went back soon.
Yuan Yaochu and the twins were both playful people and kept urging their children to go out and sell flowers, but Fourth Brother Tang was very cautious.
He asked Master Shen about the knowledge and prices of flowers. Master Shen smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I cut them off anyway. I won't lose money if I can sell them for enough to make the money for the flower pots. I don't lack the money, and your family may not lack it either. In this matter, the most valuable thing is you. Xin Baoer thinks it's important that you like doing business. She planted so many flowers for you. Just don't let her down."
Fourth Brother Tang couldn't help but ponder deeply.
So he was not in a hurry to sell them. He first went to the Flower and Tree Street and walked around for a few rounds. He checked the flower catalog to understand the condition and price of each flower. At the same time, he watched how other people sold them. Although he was young, he was very patient and would stay there for the whole day.
After a few days, even Huo Yuntao found it strange and came to ask him: "What do you watch every day? Is there anything good? Aren't you afraid of the cold?"
Fourth Brother Tang just smiled shyly. Huo Yuntao asked anxiously, "Can you tell me? Why are you keeping it a secret?"
Fourth Brother Tang was a little embarrassed: "It's not a secret, there's nothing to keep secret, I just thought of some small things, I think these things, maybe everyone knows, I'm the only one who's stupid enough to know them just now."
Huo Yuntao leaned on the back of the chair: "It's okay, talk, talk!"
