Fruit Tycoon [Farming]

Holding a melon in one hand, Xu Yi transported the dozen or so watermelons to the warehouse behind the house in just two trips.After the baptism of physical training, Xu Yi is not saying that he is as strong as a cow, but as strong as a pig. He can achieve it. The day before yesterday, he accidentally kicked a hole in the toilet at home. His father went to the toilet in the middle of the night. The black dog heads outside the cave looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.com."

"Oooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-" Excited Tantou yelled.

In the extremely quiet night, the man and the dog looked at each other and howled, as if they had discovered each other's deep secret.

Charcoal Head was then given a mixed double.

Although there was a little guilt in his heart, Xu Yi still decided to keep this secret secret, and only silently fed him ham sausage when Tantou was biting his trouser leg to testify.

Tantou was still biting his trouser leg when he took one, refusing to accept it.

When the number of ham sausages increased to three, the stupid dog went mad with joy, its tail wrapped around Xu Yi's ankle and twirled wildly, as if he had forgotten the painful history of being surrounded by Xu's parents and mother in the middle of the night to give lectures.

There was only the last watermelon left. Xu Yi split it open with a knife, and the red watermelon juice splashed out. The red flesh was crystal clear, and it was sweet and clear after one bite. The heat is all dispelled by the crunchy sweetness of the watermelon.

Xu Yi couldn't hold back, and ate one piece after another.

There are several melon sheds at home, Xu Yi has never eaten watermelons in his life, the year he went to Haishi, watermelons from Nyingchi County, watermelons from Eastern Hubei Province, crisp sandy ones, seedless ones... Xu Yi Yi has tasted almost all of them, but he has never eaten such a delicious watermelon. It seems that the sweetest taste in the world has been poured into a watermelon.

And this is just a watermelon judged unqualified by the system.

Xu Yi was eating when Lin Jinglun, who was sweating profusely, rushed in, grabbed a piece of melon and gnawed it: "This year's watermelon is so early..."

After taking the first bite, Lin Jinglun blinked slightly: "...uh."

In the next second, he accelerated his eating speed. Xu Yi saw that he finished eating a piece of watermelon in two or three mouthfuls like a hamster eating walnuts, and then went on to eat the second and third pieces...

After eating the fifth piece, Lin Jinglun patted his stomach in satisfaction: "It's so refreshing! This melon is so delicious."

Not to mention the sweet taste, just the refreshing feeling of eating it in one bite, Lin Jinglun wanted to hold half of the watermelon and eat it forever.

He quickly raised a question: "Isn't this your melon?"

"How did you eat it?"

Lin Jinglun glanced at him: "I am also a native of Xiyun after all, so I don't know what the taste of the melons at home is? But to be honest, I have eaten a lot of melons from all over the country, and the taste can match this basic taste." No. It is not an exaggeration to say, Yizi, this melon can be served at a state banquet."

Lin Jinglun walked leisurely with his stomach outstretched, but Xu Yi fell into deep thought.

There are only two differences between the watermelons in the space and the watermelons grown at home. One is the soil, and the other is the use of nutrient solution. Xu Yi is just a novice in growing melons, and he cannot compare with experienced farmers like his parents. Despite this, the space watermelon is more than a cut above the normal watermelon in terms of color, taste and sweetness.

This is undoubtedly the effect of the soil and nutrient solution.

There is no way to change the soil for the time being, but the nutrient solution...

Xu Yi quickly thought of the watermelon in the shed that had been sprayed with yield-increasing agents and nutrient solutions.

The weather in May was hot and stuffy. When the rainy season came, the air was filled with a faint musty smell. Fortunately, the rain in this season was not as much as last year, and Xu Yi's parents' frowning brows were finally eased.

By the Dragon Boat Festival, watermelons will be on the market.

Although Xiyun County is a well-known hometown of watermelons in the whole country, there are not many melon farmers in Yunwei Town, where Xu Yi's family is located. Yuntou, Yunzhong, and Yunwei are the most famous watermelon towns in Xiyun County, and Yuntou Town has the most watermelon production. , The most complete variety, including early melons and late melons. In addition to watermelons, jade mushrooms and melons are also planted, and the sales have always been good.

"Ai Qiang's family picked melons yesterday, and they only cost 8 cents a catty. This year's market is not good." Xu's father took out the cigarette case, and suddenly remembered that his son was there, so he stuffed it back naturally.

During the Ching Ming Festival, there was a lot of rain, Xu's parents and Xu's mother always thought that watermelon would be unsalable, but when the Qingming Festival came out, the weather was always good before and after selling melons, so Xu's parents and Xu's mother felt relieved.

But unfortunately, this year's market is still not good.

"Melons from Eastern Hubei Province and Huzhou Province have entered the southern market, and the competition is too great. This year's Xiyun melon harvest is bumper again."

As a melon farmer, the only choice is to wait for the intermediary to collect the melons when they are ripe. Regardless of whether the sales are good or bad, Xu's father and Xu's mother can only resign themselves to their fate.

Xu Yi ran to the kitchen and took out the watermelon that he had just cut in the morning from the dustpan. As soon as he arrived in the corridor, he heard his mother's worried voice: "The 5 yuan is the deadline, Dagen's mother is by my ear every day Talking about paying back the money..."

"Da Gen is about to get married, there is no way, how much money do you have at home now?...just 3000?"

The two deliberately lowered their voices, but no matter how low they were, Xu Yi could still hear them clearly.

"Don't talk about it in front of the child, his body is the most important thing now."

"I know, how can I not know about this? It's just paying back the money... Oh, Xu Weiguo, we will pay half of your father's matter at that time, and we will not pay your mother's medical expenses. Don't you have to worry about Dagen's money? gone?"

"What are you talking about now?"

"I won't say it, but I can't think about it? Your father left a lot of money, even if I want it, can I get it?" Xu's mother smiled self-deprecatingly, just about to say something, but Xu's father He patted the back of his hand lightly.

Xu Yi came in with half a melon.

Xu's father and Xu's mother suddenly smiled.

"Is this just picked in the shed?" Dad Xu asked.

Xu Yi shook his head: "This is sent by my classmate. The watermelon cultivated by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences is the fertilizer he gave me."

Dad Xu couldn't help but tilt his head curiously.

It's okay if you don't look at it. At first glance, Dad Xu couldn't help but push Mom Xu.

As an experienced melon farmer, Dad Xu is undoubtedly the best at judging the quality of watermelon by its color. The half of the watermelon that Xu Yi cut open is clear in color, and the moist and sweet inside can be seen even through the outermost layer.

Dad Xu took a bite, and his eyes immediately widened.

"This, this melon..."

This melon is so delicious!

If Lin Jinglun's description of deliciousness is purely about the taste, Dad Xu's mouthful is completely judging the superiority of space watermelon compared to ordinary watermelon. After taking almost one mouthful, Dad Xu tasted the watermelon. Excellent.

Thin skin, sweet meat, juicy...

He would only sell it for at least two yuan a catty!

If Xu Yi knew what his father was really thinking at the moment, he would be speechless in his heart.

Among other things, in this season, the watermelons in the fruit shops in Haishi are at least two yuan and five pounds, and the price of such a good watermelon must be doubled at least!

The excellence of space watermelon is not only in the taste, but also in the refreshing feeling after eating, the sweet and moist breath wraps the mouth, that kind of comfort...

It's like after eating melon, the whole person is refreshed. If you eat a piece after taking a nap, the drowsy bugs will run away.

Xu's father and Xu's mother ate without looking up, but after a while, half of the watermelon was shared between the two.Dad Xu wiped his hands: "I've never eaten such a delicious melon in my life. Is this sent by your friend from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences?"

Xu Yi nodded: "I used the fertilizer he gave me."

"Use the...that fertilizer he gave you? That water?" Dad Xu paused as he wiped his hands, "Really, is that water really fertilizer?"

Xu's mother interjected, "I thought I was wrong, the fat shed on Xiaoyi's house is full of knots..."

Dad Xu paused again.

Regardless of the hot noon, Xu's father and Xu's mother rushed to the melon shed and looked inside and out of the melon shed.If you don't look carefully, you don't know. If you look carefully, you will be really shocked.

The melon shed is full of melons, and at a glance, there are more melons than the two sheds at home!

Carefully turn over the melons on the ground, the leaves on the vines, the color of the melon skin... From Dad Xu's old-fashioned eyes, they are all good melons!

This shed was planted on the land of Aunt Xu Yi’s house borrowed from Aunt Xu Yi’s house. The place is far away, and Xu Yi’s parents naturally did not take care of the sheds close to home. The effect of two buckets of water.

No, not water, but two buckets of fertilizer.

Can't wait to take the melon home, Dad Xu hit it with the handle of the knife, and the melon exploded naturally. When Mom Xu finished cutting the melon, the serious expression on Dad Xu's face immediately turned into surprise.

"This is at least two yuan a catty!" He said happily.

There are at least 6000 catties of melons in a shed, and if you buy two yuan per catty, you can get [-] melons!

Before Dad Xu got excited, Xu Yi stopped him: "Ten yuan, at least ten yuan a catty."

"Ten yuan?!" Xu's father and Xu's mother were taken aback, "Ten yuan per catty probably won't be bought by anyone, and no dealer will accept it. Now watermelons can be sold for two or three yuan per catty, which is not bad."

Only then did Xu Yi tell Xu's father and Xu's mother what he really thought.

In recent days, the province has hosted a watermelon expo in Sujin City, the capital of the province. The first day is mainly aimed at the key watermelon varieties in each jurisdiction and the melon and fruit products of state-owned farms. The second to third days are aimed at It is melon farmers. Of course, those who can transport watermelons to the provincial capital for sale are all big families. After all, it costs 3000 yuan to go to the provincial capital for a round trip.

"Isn't the price too high?" Mother Xu muttered.

But Xu Yi asked her back: "Mom, is this melon delicious?"

Mama Xu nodded repeatedly.

"Delicious is delicious, but I'm afraid that the price is too expensive and people won't sell it." Father Xu held the cigarette case in his hand, and squeezed it until the cigarette case was almost crushed by him.

"Even if it sells for two yuan, it's more cost-effective than 8 cents a catty if you put gas money on it."

The entrance ticket to the booth at the expo was 100 yuan. Xu Yi applied for a booth online, and then contacted Lin Jinglun, asking him to find a car for him.

"It's easy. I have a van going to Sujin over there. Just give me 500 yuan." Lin Jinglun agreed, and the next morning, the van showed up at Xu Yi's door.
