Chapter 12 Wait a minute, Im a little dizzy
In this era of winter vegetables, apart from vegetables that are easy to preserve like Chinese cabbage and potatoes, we can only eat sauerkraut and pickles. There are almost no out-of-season greenhouse vegetables.
In the memory of his previous life, Li Yuan once had the impression that around the early 1990s, domestic greenhouse planting technology had become completely mature, and it was nothing more than a process of gradual promotion and popularization.
Like other promotion technologies, demonstration sites for greenhouse cultivation should have appeared in the rural areas around coastal big cities. However, they have not yet appeared in the inland provinces here. It will take a few years before they are slowly popularized.
It was not until around 2000 that greenhouse cultivation would be fully popularized everywhere.
In this case, is there any hope for greenhouse cultivation?
I heard that the earliest greenhouse growers could sell off-season vegetables for fifty cents a piece in winter, and they were robbed when they were delivered to the market. Big cities are full of big-name merchants who are willing to try new things!
You know, money is still quite valuable nowadays. Chinese cabbage is only two or three cents per catty. Vegetables that exceed one cent are sky-high prices?
Therefore, the investment in the greenhouse can be recovered within almost one or two years, mainly due to the construction cost of the greenhouse. It is not uncommon to earn tens of thousands of dollars in one winter.
If you let your family start greenhouse cultivation, first of all, the income will be high; secondly, people will be relaxed, and finally it will be easy to accept.
Isn’t this the perfect weight-reducing exercise?
Of course, there will definitely be people who will imitate and follow suit in the future, and greenhouse cultivation will soon spread. Coupled with the geographical and transportation constraints of Yutou'ao Village, it will definitely not be able to compete with greenhouse growers around the city.
But isn’t there a time lag in following the trend?
After a few years, the vegetables in the greenhouse will be rotten, then they will switch to greenhouse mushroom cultivation. After a few more years, the mushrooms in the greenhouse will be rotten...?
Please! If that time comes, my mother Zhang Zhen still needs to dig in the soil for food? She can buy a piece of tofu and kill her!
Sure enough, Zhang Zhen smiled happily after hearing this, with that kind of motherly smile on her face. Her son was finally making a difference.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with studying more and becoming a cultural person. It is best to coax him to continue to take college entrance exams...
Gu Yuqin was also restless with excitement.
This is my man. He knows so much. My life is so good. Hehe...
Rural people just have little knowledge, and they are not stupid. They will never refuse new things that bring benefits.
After all, greenhouse cultivation is also farming, Zhang Zhen and Gu Yuqin knew it well. Moreover, it was not unexpected for them that winter vegetables are very valuable and have good market prospects.
After Li Yuan finished introducing everything, Zhang Zhen asked: "Son, is it difficult to grow vegetables in a greenhouse? What if there are any tips? Mom is not sure about it?"
Li Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and almost collapsed. He smiled and said: "Don't imagine how difficult greenhouse cultivation is. After all, isn't it just farming? This technology is already very mature abroad and has begun to be promoted in China. Tips
There must be some, but it's difficult for those who don't know it, but it's not difficult for those who know it. And I have a classmate. I heard that his cousin is a technician at the agricultural technology station in our township. They should have greenhouse planting technology there. Anyway, let's go
I will make arrangements beforehand."
Hearing this, Zhang Zhen made a decisive decision: "That's it. Honey, it doesn't matter if you lose money in the first year, it's just like paying tuition. As long as the cost is recovered within three years, our family won't be considered a loss."
Like my father Li Guodong, my mother is also a bold and decisive character.
Li Yuan was already moved to tears. God finally opened his eyes and finally achieved the goal of reducing the burden.
Zhang Zhen continued: "Baby, don't worry about money. If mom is brave enough to ask, you can still borrow a lot."
This is true. After all, outsiders don't know the actual situation of Li Yuan's family. Seeing so many big animals, they are still willing to borrow money because they are not afraid that the Li family will not have the money to pay back.
But is Li Yuan worried about this little money? The royalties for the ladies and sisters are coming soon!
"Haha, Mom, don't worry about money. It's not urgent anyway. The greenhouse can be built quickly. It can be completed before winter."
Li Yuan has never thought about building a vegetable planting base. It is just using the two acres of water at home to irrigate the land. It can be solved with a few thousand yuan.
Seeing the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere of a loving mother and filial piety, Li Yuan struck while the iron was hot: "Mom, from now on we will build greenhouses on the irrigated land. Should those slopes be moved out?"
Zhang Zhen looked at it strangely: "Of course we will build a greenhouse on the slope. What if it fails? Our family will not even have any food rations?"
Li Yuan no longer wanted to argue with his mother about these unimportant details. Talking about them would hurt his feelings: "Then we don't need much slope land. Can we transfer the rest?"
"Those are no good. The livestock still have to eat the coarse grains grown on the slopes."
"Okay. So it's time to sell the animals? Our family is busy growing vegetables in the greenhouse and we don't have time to take care of them?"
"No, son, is it useful?" Zhang Zhen said with a smile.
Li Yuan's face changed slightly: "Mom, we don't sell herbal medicine anymore, what's the use of keeping horses and mules?"
"Who said we don't sell herbal medicines? We sell vegetables in winter and herbal medicines in other seasons, so we can make a living together." Zhang Zhen said proudly.
"Well……"
(⊙?⊙)
Li Yuan almost didn't catch his breath. Should you say MMP seriously?
After racking your brains to reduce the burden on the family, you finally found a new job for your mother?
"Wait a minute, I'm a little dizzy. What do you mean...? You won't give up on anything, right?"
"You don't have to say that?" Zhang Zhen covered her mouth and smiled, "Your mother is such a person, what do you want? Work more and it won't kill you..."
Li Yuan was speechless, and Gu Yuqin beside him had already burst into laughter...
…
In the end, Zhang Zhen was like coaxing a child. She finally raised her hand and gave Li Yuan a little sweetness to comfort his young heart.
Forget it this year.
Starting next year, the family will no longer raise pigs, and the number of sheep will be reduced to two or three. However, in exchange, we will buy some chickens and ducks. Anyway, they can be left to the fourth sister, Li Yunyun, to take care of them.
Okay! Finally we got nothing!
Li Yuan also gained a very valuable experience - in the eyes of his mother Zhang Zhen, he is just a child who doesn't understand anything!
If something happens again in the future, I will still have to deal with it first and then report it. However, the prerequisite for dealing with it first and then reporting it is that I have to establish a certain prestige myself.
In the eyes of my mother Zhang Zhen, she is nothing more than an inexperienced high school student!
However, if you want to have prestige, you must have achievements; if you want to have achievements, you must go to the capital?
It's like being trapped in some kind of weird circle.
Li Yuan was helpless, he had better get through this half a year!
Chapter completed!
