Father Ye was embarrassed and thought the joke was too big.
"It's okay, it's okay. Ye Mo sent some watermelons over and asked you to come over and eat the watermelons." Dad Ye said.
"I thought one of you had been bitten by a snake, so I ran over here quickly." The second uncle said angrily.
"Everyone take a break and eat some watermelon." Dad Ye said.
Chen Shan laughed and said: "There are more than forty of us, do you have enough watermelons?"
"That's enough. Come over quickly and take a look at this rare, sixty-pound watermelon." Ye Mo said.
Chen Chen and Tang Xun also came over.
"Where did you buy a watermelon that's so big?" Tang Xun said.
"They are grown at home. These weigh more than 60 kilograms each, which is considered small. There are also bigger ones, weighing more than 200 kilograms each, but they are not yet ripe." Ye Mo said.
"How bragging? One weighs more than two hundred pounds?"
"It's rare but strange." Ye Mo said with disdain, picked up the knife and started to divide this oversized watermelon.
There are more than forty people in total.
But this watermelon is really big, weighing more than 60 kilograms. There is also a watermelon weighing more than 30 kilograms, and half a watermelon weighing more than ten kilograms...
A total of more than one hundred kilograms.
On average, each person weighs more than two kilograms, which is quite a lot.
"I haven't seen such a big watermelon in many years." Tang Xun's father said while eating the melon.
"In a while, I will pick a large watermelon weighing more than a hundred pounds and bring it to everyone to try." Ye Mo said and continued to share the watermelon.
Lin Xiaomian handed everyone the watermelon divided by Ye Mo.
Ye Mo couldn't help but said: "Which of you has a knife, please help me divide it."
"Me." Chen Chen took out a fruit knife.
It took a while to finish dividing the watermelon.
Everyone ate watermelon, sat under the shade of a tree, chatted and smoked a cigarette.
"How many acres of drip irrigation were done today?" Ye Mo sat next to Tang Xun and asked.
"It's about two to three hundred acres," Tang Xun said.
Everyone assembles the drip irrigation together, which is very fast.
"Ye Ran, after you are done with your work here, dig a small ditch in my orchard and bury the drip irrigation." Chen Shan said. If the water pipes are left in the open, exposure to the sun and rain will shorten the service life of the water pipes. Moreover, if the water pipes are left in the open, their service life will be reduced.
Yes, it is inconvenient to drive in the garden now, for fear of being crushed. The water pipe is very tight, but the structure of the drip irrigation head...these parts are prone to aging over time. It is better to bury the water pipe.
"Yes. Uncles, I have ordered another micro-excavator and it will be delivered the day after tomorrow. If you have any work in the future, please contact me." Ye Ran stood up and took the business card and handed one to each person.
Ye Ran's name and phone number are on the business card.
"After the fruits are picked, come over and help me dig the fertilizer ditch."
"Okay." Ye Ran smiled.
There are tens of thousands of orchard excavators. Throughout the year, there is not much time to actually use micro-excavation. It is more cost-effective to hire someone to do it.
After all, they only have dozens of acres, more than a hundred acres, or at most two hundred acres of orchards.
The orchards here have poor soil fertility.
This year we plan to dig deep trenches and apply heavy fertilizer. The trench depth will be about 75 centimeters...
Apply heavy fertilizer for one season, mainly to improve the deep soil. From now on, just follow normal management and dig a hole to a depth of 30 to 40 centimeters.
If you want fruit trees to have high yields, you must nourish the tree roots and the soil well.
This year, the mango orchard here has a yield of only three to five hundred kilograms per mu. In some areas, the yield is less than two hundred kilograms...
Apply heavy fertilizers, raise the trees well, and strive for a yield of over 1,000 next year.
Orchards, if managed, can get better and better.
"Are you getting used to working in the countryside?" Ye Mo looked at Tang Xun and asked.
"Getting used to it, it's much easier than making cakes before." Tang Xun said with a smile.
The atmosphere in their village is very good. Everyone has moved here, so they are closer emotionally.
Although Tang Xun was not in their village before, he worked with them for a period of time, and before they knew it, everyone became close.
"Really? Is making cakes more tiring than doing farm work?" Uncle Li looked at Tang Xun and said with a smile.
"Making cakes used to take twelve hours a day. Now, it's really easy." Tang Xun said with a smile.
After smoking a cigarette, everyone was ready to continue working.
Tang Xun stood up and patted his butt, took out his wallet and took out a business card, and handed it to Ye Mo: "Didn't I tell you before about a boss who specializes in wholesale selling rare fruits? This is his phone number. Let me ask you.
After that, he is collecting Jiabao fruits over there. Give him his phone number and tell him that I introduced him."
Ye Mo accepted the business card: "Okay, thank you."
"Why are you so polite to me? I'm going to work."
"Yeah." Ye Mo nodded.
Ye Mo looked at the business card, the name on it was Gao Yuan.
lofty……
The manager of Xinxiang Construction Company is named Gao Jin, both of whom have the same surname. Are they related?
The surname Gao is quite rare here.
Father Ye went over and continued driving the excavator.
Ye Ran came over and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, I want to eat taro roasted chicken tonight. You go home early and cook it for me."
"Okay. Finish work and go back early."
"Um."
There is no need to rush to work now.
As long as we can keep up with the construction company's progress, that's fine.
There isn't much work left now, it can be finished in three or four days.
Ye Mo and Lin Xiaomian returned to the car, got off the car, and went to Liu Bin's house to buy a native chicken. They returned to Gaoshanping, came to the durian forest, and stopped: "Stay on the mountain for the night."
Lin Xiaomian was a little embarrassed and said coyly, "I'll call my mother later and tell her."
Ye Mo got out of the car with a smile, went to the passenger seat, opened the door, kissed Lin Xiaomian's forehead, and said, "Wait for me in the car for a while."
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll go over and make a call." Ye Mo said.
"oh."
Ye Mo took out his phone and dialed Gao Yuan's number: "Hello, boss Gao?"
"I am, who are you?" A middle-aged man's voice came from the phone.
"I'm Tang Xun's friend. Tang Xun, the one who made the cake."
"Oh, hello..." Tang Xun told him about Ye Mo's place, saying that Ye Mo had Jiabao fruit, mystery fruit, raspberry, and goat's milk fruit.
Goat's milk fruit, a kind of wild fruit, is locally called 'goat's milk'.
Ye Mo has planted goat's milk fruit on more than three acres, but there are no results yet...
"I'm Ye Mo. Tang Xun told you about me, right?"
"Said."
"Tang Xun said you specialize in buying rare fruits."
"Yes, I specialize in less common fruits here." Gao Yuan said.
"Are you going to collect watermelons?"
"A rare watermelon?"
"It's very rare. An oversized watermelon weighs more than 100 kilograms each," Ye Mo said.
"Watermelons weighing more than a hundred pounds are not uncommon, right?" Gao Yuan smiled and said, "If they are all weighing one hundred pounds each, what color is it?"
Large watermelons weighing more than 100 kilograms are still very rare.
Some growers specialize in growing this large watermelon for sale, but the price is not cheap. The bigger the melon, the more expensive it is.
These melons are also classified into edible melons and inedible melons.
Some super large watermelons are not bred for eating, but for display.
Large watermelons weighing hundreds of pounds are much more expensive than normal edible watermelons.
Ye Mo added Gao Yuan's WeChat account, came to the watermelon field, stood next to the largest watermelon, and clicked on the video call: "Boss Gao, this is my planting habit. Take a look, what do you think?"
"Drink, it's so big." Boss Gao was slightly startled when he saw the watermelon next to Ye Mo: "Is it a real watermelon?"
