  Chapter 17 Fruit Saplings

  These days, everyone in the village is happy that the weather is going well this year and the farmers are doing well.

   Baskets of corn were moved out of the field, corn stalks were cut and piled up into mountains, and food and firewood for the second half of the year were available. This can be described as a bumper harvest!

   And Lan Dazhuang also found a way to buy fruit saplings.

  Early this morning, a batch of high-quality fruit tree seedlings just came back from the neighboring province—

   A large cart full of saplings entered the village, which immediately attracted the attention of many villagers.

   At this time, the Lan family contracted the work of the mountain behind the village, so it spread in the village and became known to the villagers.

  The specific situation of the country’s implementation of the land contract system. Although there is no collective meeting in the village to discuss this matter, in this village of dozens of families, who doesn’t have a relative on the village leadership team?

  Everyone knows the matter, but no one is willing to lure the boss to contract the land.

  These days, whenever a family has some money, the first reaction is to hide it well.

  Let them spend a lot of money, that is simply to cut their flesh!

  In the current situation, if the Lan family contracted the land normally, everyone might still think that this family is really rich~!

   But now, what the Lan family contracted was not arable land, but a mountain, which made many villagers think it was a joke when they mentioned it!

  Lan Shengli, the propagandist of the trade union in the village, has been laughed at so many times this morning.

   But as long as he thinks that in a few years, the mountain contracted by their family will raise 100,000 chickens, Lan Shengli will always laugh in his dreams~

  Other people laugh at him now, let them laugh~

  In the future, the villagers will know how correct what his sons and daughters are doing!

  The villagers laughed at the fact that the Lan family contracted the back mountain, but now that they saw Lan Dazhuang taking over a large cart of saplings, they even secretly called him stupid.

  The mountains are full of trees, isn't that enough?

  Lan Dazhuang has nowhere to use his strength, and nowhere to spend his money!

  It is really rare for a large truck to drive to the village. Many villagers even temporarily put down their work and came to watch the unloading.

  Among the crowd, Yang Xian is thirty-two years old and lives in the village south of Tianshui Village.

   Yang Xian looks average, and his family conditions are not very good. His wife ran away with someone two years ago, leaving behind an eight-year-old son.

Yang Xian liked to run up the mountains when he was young. Their side belongs to the plain area, there are not many mountains, and the mountain behind the village is not very high. You can climb to the top of the mountain in 40 to 50 minutes, so there are no large animals on the mountain, only pheasants, Small animals such as hares.

  Because he has gone up the mountain a lot, he knows where there are wild jujube trees, wild apple trees, and wild chestnut trees on the mountain.

  When he was young, he would go to the mountains to pick fruit every year, so he knew the leaves of fruit trees.

   At this time, a large cart of saplings was pulled in and unloaded, Yang Xian recognized that there were apple trees in it!

  So the Lan family plans to contract the back mountain to plant fruit trees?

   But even if the fruit tree is planted, can the fruit be sold?

  If you can’t sell it, how can you make money?

  Although Yang Xian thinks that the Lan family's idea is good, the risk is too great!

  If it were him, he would definitely not take such a risk!

  If you have money, you should put it in your hands to be at ease.

   And now, let alone being rich, he lives alone with his son, and he is so poor that he is almost unable to open his mouth...

  …

  Lan Dazhuang's side, after a large cart of saplings was brought down, came with the delivery driver and two masters who planted fruit trees.

  Although Lan Dazhuang can plant trees by himself, the younger sister said that the fruit saplings should be planted immediately after delivery, and the delay may affect the survival rate of the fruit saplings.

   He alone can't finish the work in a short time, so he has to find someone to help.

   And there is a trick to finding someone to help, that is, you must find a skilled person!

   Lan Shu would rather spend more money to hire experienced masters to work, as long as the survival rate of fruit tree seedlings can be improved.

  Every fruit tree sapling was bought by them with money. If it can't survive, it will be a waste of money, so Lan Dazhuang agreed with the younger sister.

  Lan Dazhuang didn't buy too many saplings this time, one hundred apple trees, one hundred pear trees, and one hundred kiwi trees that my younger sister specially requested.

  If it weren’t for the fact that the oranges grown in Tianshui Village might not be too sweet, Lan Shu would still like to plant an orange orchard on the mountain~

   But there are apple, pear and kiwi orchards, which are enough for the time being.

  …

  Two days later, when the autumn harvest in the village was over, the planting of fruit tree seedlings on the back hill was also successfully completed.

   This is still Lan Dazhuang choosing a place in advance, clearing the weeds and nearby trees, and digging 300 holes, so that the saplings can be planted so quickly.

  The two masters who were invited to plant the fruit seedlings, after seeing the soil on the mountain and the growth environment of the fruit seedlings, explained to Lan Dazhuang the precautions for taking care of the fruit seedlings in recent days.

   And said that if these fruit saplings are maintained according to their method, the survival rate of the fruit saplings can reach at least 90%!

  Lan Dazhuang was still a little dissatisfied after listening to the teacher's words, only 90%?

   Then out of the 300 saplings he bought, wouldn't 30 of them survive?

   But there is no way. Autumn is not the best time to plant trees. The survival rate of 90% is already very high.

  The two teachers said that if they plan to plant a few more orchards next spring, they promise to increase the survival rate of the fruit saplings!

  Lan Dazhuang readily agreed to the subsequent cooperation in purchasing fruit tree seedlings.

  He remembered that when he was choosing the types of fruit saplings, the younger sister said that a peach forest would be planted on the mountain in the future, and even apple and pear trees would add new varieties in the future.

  Before the delivery car left the village, Lan Shu also rushed to the entrance of the village in a rather uncomfortable body.

  In addition to paying the balance of 500 yuan for 300 fruit saplings, she also paid 20 yuan for the hard work of the two masters who helped plant the saplings.

  Twenty yuan can cover half a month's wages of the current workers, but as long as the two of them can put their best efforts in planting their fruit tree seedlings, then the money will be worth the money!

   After all, their cooperation is not limited to this one time. In the future, they want to buy various high-quality new varieties of fruit tree seedlings, and there are places that need two masters.

  …

  In the next few days, Lan Dazhuang was busy from morning to night every day, carrying water up the mountain to water the fruit tree seedlings one by one.

  Lan Shu is in a special situation these days, unable to do heavy work, so she continues to stay at home.

  But even if she is healthy and able to work, her elder brother will not make her work hard.

   Fortunately, Xiaobai's body is almost recuperating, and he also helped a lot in watering the fruit tree seedlings.

  Although Xiaobai is young, he is quite strong and able to endure hardships. His daily workload is almost equal to that of Lan Dazhuang.

   Sometimes Lan Shengli would help carry a few buckets of water up the mountain when the trade union returned early.

  Looking at the three and a half person-high fruit tree seedlings on the mountain in just a few days, Lan Shengli felt unbelievable.

  The mountain behind their village was really contracted by his family!

   Besides, my son planted fruit trees on the mountain. After a few years, there will be three orchards!
