Chapter 472: Where the Pendant Fell: Xu Shan (Twenty-One)



"That little hill is very expensive, right? My father won't give it to me."

"Well, should I send it to you, or not?"

"Send, send. Now is the time to plant trees. You must send them to me. How much is one?"

"You're just starting a business, I don't want your money."

"No, no, brothers should settle accounts clearly. Whatever is due is what is due. Since I dared to come out, I have some money."

"Then I won't hold back. It's one dollar per tree, and you have to pay for the shipping yourself."

"Xiao Shan, it's only one dollar. Don't let it go to waste."

"Don't worry, you won't suffer any loss."

"Okay, get me 50 saplings."

"Well, okay. I'll check out the logistics in the next few days. Also, the sapling I give you will bear fruit in its first year. Also, don't remove the soil from the sapling. Just plant it directly in the soil."

"OK."

After Xu Shan hung up the phone, she went straight home.

Before going home, I bought some meat bones for Dabai on the way.

Now that Xiaobai is gone, Dabai feels a lot lonelier and hasn't been happy in the recent period.

"Dabai, today's mission was not going well. I was framed and didn't make any money.

I have decided to take a break for a while and stop shipping products so that I can focus on growing my fruit trees.

I'll go to the village these two days to ask if there are any idle people, so I can hire a few people to help me plant fruit trees."

"Want Want"

"You think so, don't you? Okay, I'll leave the chicks and ducklings to you."

Xu Shan lay on the bed, holding a notebook, and calculated how many trees needed to be planted on the entire mountain.

She brought back all the ripe fruits these days and took out the seeds inside.

Plant them in the space, and after an hour, take out the grown saplings.

A total of more than 300 saplings were pulled out from the space, including orange saplings prepared for Xiao Min.

On the third day, Xu Shan went to the city to arrange logistics. The trees were not expensive, but the freight was very expensive.

Fifty trees cost a total of more than one hundred dollars.

After Xu Shan sent the tree away, she called Xiao Min.

"The item has been shipped, and I've paid for the shipping. Remember to let me know when you receive the item."

"Okay, send me the card number and I'll transfer it to you."

"OK."

Xu Shan hung up the phone with Xiao Min and went to Liang Chunyang's shop out of curiosity.

Everything is normal. "Don't those things work?"

Xu Shan was a little disappointed. It seemed that her plan had failed.

The dosage is too little.

Since it didn’t work this time, I can only think of other ways.

And this kind of harmful thing should not be done often.

After Xu Shan returned home, she began to contact people in the village to see if there was anyone free, asking them to help plant trees for 20 yuan a day.

Many people do this job for twenty yuan, especially middle-aged women in the village. They have nothing to do at home, so they might as well come out and earn some pocket money.

Xu Shan found more than a dozen people and planted more than 300 trees in just two or three days.

In the evening, she took out some saplings from the space again.

In half a month, it should be no problem to plant thousands of trees.

Xu Shan even planted some chickens and ducks in the back mountain.

Just take advantage of any gaps and don't plan to move the trees and grass inside. The seeds for chickens and ducks need to be natural every year. If the trees and grass are cut down, she will need a lot of money to buy chicken feed in the future, which is not worth it.

"Xiao Xu, you planted so many fruit trees this time. The fruit trees grow relatively slowly, so you have to live here for a long time." The old lady asked while working.

"Yes, I am planning to settle down here. Maybe I will be a resident of our village in the future. I can plant one fruit tree for my whole life."

"Fruit trees won't bear fruit in ten years."

"If this island had always been there, I would have continued to plant crops, replacing them."

"No one would live in this place anymore. If you rent it, it definitely wouldn't belong to anyone else."

"Well, I'll just stay here and guard my farm. I still have to wait for Xiaobai."

"That child is the same. No one knows where he ran off to. It makes people worry. Don't worry, Xiao Xu. The villagers will keep an eye on this. As long as they go out, they will help to find out the news about Xiao Bai."

"Well, thank you everyone."

"We took care of Xiaobai as well. He would often take Dabai around the village, bringing a lot of fun to everyone. We miss him too."

Yes, Xu Shan also missed Xiaobai. She didn’t know where that idiot was now and there was no news at all.

"Xiao Xu, what varieties of fruit trees are you planting?" an aunt beside her asked when Xu Shan was feeling sad.

"It's an orange tree, a variety I researched myself."

"Oh, you researched the varieties yourself, that's amazing. How did you plant so many? I've never seen you plant saplings before."

"I planted it among the chickens and ducks. The soil over there is good and it grows fast."

"That's right. There's a lot of chicken and duck droppings. By the way, Xiao Xu, your eggs are really delicious. They're laid by chickens that eat insects, so they're very nutritious. Bring me a bag later. I'll buy it."

"Okay, Auntie, I'll get you a basket in a moment."

"Xiao Xu, you don't have electricity here. How are you going to get by? Everything is inconvenient."

"Also, there's a flashlight and a radio to keep you entertained. The vegetables we eat are all grown by ourselves. We have everything."

"There aren't many younger generations like you who are so stable and can endure hardships."

"Aunts, please don't praise me. I was forced by life. If there were any other way, I wouldn't be here."

"This is also a good place. Don't complain about the hardship. Just stick with it and you will have a good life in the future.

Look at the village now. People used to make a living by fishing, but they didn’t make much money. Now, in addition to fishing, they also raise fish and crabs.

Now the black carp here is the most famous.

In addition to fishing, many families have also set up seafood processing plants, which are all profitable projects."

"Yeah, who would have thought that our poor little fishing village would become richer than those factory workers in the city who have stable jobs."

Xu Shan smiled and said, "Aunties, I think things will get better and better in the future. There is a big port in the city, and seafood is the most popular."

"That's right. I heard that we are going to build a large port here. I don't know if it's true."

"Whether it's true or not, there's always hope."

Xu Shan felt that if a large port was built, her small island might not be able to be preserved.

I am very worried and hope that in a few years, at least she can make her money back.

She just planted this fruit tree, so it will take at least a few years for her to sell the fruit.

This time when I asked the villagers to come, I discovered many unknown things. I also don’t know whether it is right or wrong for her to plant so many fruit trees at one time.
