There is no water on the mountain; if we need water, we have to fetch it from the foot of the mountain.
Including the groundwater depth, the distance to transport water from the foot of the mountain to the station would be nearly two hundred meters.
He also visited the agricultural machinery market in the city and found that the water pump with the largest head was only about fifty meters.
If the water needs to be brought up, it will need to be lifted twice in the middle.
Wang Tianxiao didn't know much about this industry, so he asked his brother-in-law to look into it in the provincial capital. He actually found a water pump with a lift of 100 meters, but it was a bit expensive.
But Wang Tianxiao is not short of money now.
The prefabrication plant and brick and tile factory are now busier than ever. Based on marketing and profits, he can receive hundreds of thousands of yuan in dividends in just one month.
Not flustered at all.
Although he still rides a motorcycle and eats and drinks with the workers, appearing very ordinary, he is actually one of the richest people in Wangjia Village, and even Qingquan Town.
After he became wealthy, he did not want to invest in the financial sector or make much money.
Even after earning that money, he felt no sense of accomplishment or reward.
He has no interest in personally handling real estate projects, let alone profit models in the virtual world.
He just wants to get things done.
The results are clearly visible, allowing not only oneself to gain wealth, but also enabling relatives, friends, and neighbors to earn an income and live a happy life.
When the granaries are full, people know etiquette.
After becoming wealthy, there were far fewer conflicts among the people.
In the early years, you could hear people arguing and even fighting over a few centimeters of land almost every day.
Now that everyone is working at the station and with the construction teams, there are more ways to make money, so no one has the time or inclination to bother with trivial matters; it's not troublesome enough.
Moreover, through collaboration at work, everyone gradually developed a sense of teamwork and was no longer confined to their own little corner of the world.
Work efficiency has improved significantly, and interpersonal relationships are noticeably more harmonious than before.
Therefore, investing in two water pumps is not a problem at all for Wang Tianxiao now.
.
The weather is gradually getting cooler.
Before we knew it, the leaves on the mountain leaves began to slowly turn yellow.
The Yangziling area is mainly covered by broad-leaved forests, which are very sensitive to seasonal changes.
With each gust of wind, a layer of leaves falls.
Standing on the platform of the station, you can often see the mountains covered with fluttering leaves, as beautiful as butterflies dancing in the air.
The medicinal herbs that should have been planted in autumn have been mostly planted, and the remaining empty land is a field of herbs planted in winter and spring.
For this planting, Wang Tianxiao specifically invited Mi Qingsong to observe it many times to ensure that there were no problems with his medicinal herb planting methods.
This includes some relatively expensive medicinal herbs.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Wang Tianxiao told everyone to go home early to celebrate the holiday.
He plans to hold a rather grand party at the station.
Originally, we planned to hold the event in the village after the row of houses were built, but after the houses were built, we still needed to renovate them, so we decided to hold it at the depot.
On the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, the temperature difference between day and night in Qingcheng is already quite large.
This is also the time when most fruits ripen.
Yangziling also has a lot of fruit, many of which are planted in large swaths, covering half the hillside.
Examples include wild pears, hawthorns, wild apples, wild dates, wild pears, wild apricots, wild plums, wild peaches, wild cherries, and so on.
Don't be fooled by the fact that these things can be found on flat ground; just add the word 'mountain' to them, and they instantly become a different kind of fruit.
Because the fruits in the mountains have not been grafted or cultivated by people, they retain their original, simple flavor and do not look as appealing as fruits that have been selected.
Take the mountain peach for example.
There are many varieties of wild peaches in the mountains, but they all have a common characteristic: they are extremely fuzzy. The flesh of the wild peach itself is very firm, and it is impossible for a person to bite into it before it is ripe.
Those long hairs are very fine; if they prick a person's skin, they can make the whole body feel uncomfortable.
Especially during this season, when the weather is not yet safely cold, people wear light clothing or even short sleeves at midday. If you eat wild peaches, the fuzz will inevitably fall on you.
That itch was truly unbearable.
Around the Mid-Autumn Festival, the mountain peaches are mostly ripe.
When Liu Yuan went out to look for wild animals, he would pick some and bring them back. People would first brush off the fur with a brush, and then wipe them with a cloth before they could be eaten.
Mountain peaches can often be broken open from the middle, revealing a red interior and the pit will separate easily, somewhat like yellow peaches.
It tastes especially sweet.
For fruit to taste good, two conditions must be met: the production area should not receive much rain, and there should be a large temperature difference between day and night.
Qingcheng perfectly meets all my needs.
Moreover, the situation is even more severe in the mountains.
Despite the benefits of this fruit, it used to be left to grow and die on its own, mainly because no one picked it. Even if it was picked, it couldn't be transported out. If you carried baskets down the mountain to the market to sell it, you wouldn't get much money at all.
To generate profits, the road problem needs to be solved.
The only thing you can exchange for some money here is wild jujubes.
Wild jujubes mainly grow on both sides of hillsides, and due to gravity, the jujube trees droop down.
In later years, people discovered this pattern. After the mountain road was repaired, they would drive their farm vehicles up and bump the jujube trees with the back of the vehicles, and the jujubes would fall right into the truck bed.
It saves on manual labor.
As for the other fruits not located near the sides of the mountain road, they basically bloom, bear fruit, ripen, fall, and turn into spring mud year after year, before continuing the next cycle.
