The fairy of space also farms

Back at the hotel, Xun Xu hugged Xu Ning as soon as he entered the door.Still, the feeling of being held in my arms is better, steadfast and at ease, without the feeling of being out of control.

After a while, Xun Xu hugged him tighter and tighter, Xu Ning said, "What are you doing, let go, I'm going to wash my hands."

"Don't move, let me hug first." Xun Xu hugged Xu Ning and fell on the bed, buried his head in Xu Ning's neck, and began to kiss him.

Xu Ning pushed him away: "Don't make trouble. After walking outside for a day, my body is covered in sweat and dust. It's so dirty. Take a shower first."

Xun Xu hurriedly followed: "I want to take a bath too, let's take a bath together."

The next afternoon, when the two returned to Qianlong Village, Xun Xu stretched his waist: "It's still comfortable at home, everything is kind."

Xu Ning said, "Are you going to travel in the future?"

Xun Xu shook his head: "No, it's too boring. Just stay at home."

Xu Ning laughed, this guy is actually quite easygoing.

All the shrimp seedlings bought back were put into the valley, and the loach and eel were put into the paddy field. Although the rice hadn't been planted yet, the fish had grown to a certain size.

After leaving for two or three days, family affairs piled up again, and the two of them hurried to work.Xu Jingshan said to Xu Ning: "Two people came to you to buy vegetables yesterday, and one of them said they were your classmates."

Xu Ning was a little surprised: "My classmate? Chen Xiaolu?"

Xu Jingshan shook his head: "It's not her, it's a man. Jianing came here. When you weren't here, they bought some strawberries, cucumbers and tomatoes and said they would come back in two days."

"Didn't you tell me your name?" Xu Ning thought, who could it be? There were not many male classmates who came last time, only Liu Xiaochuan, Zou Jianjun and Sun Qiang. Why didn't they call him when they came here.

Xu Jingshan smiled: "I seem to have said it, but I am old and forgetful, so I don't remember it."

"It's okay. Since he said he would come again, let's wait two days and see again."

Xunxu went to the back mountain to graze sheep, while Xu Ning went to the back mountain to dig bamboo shoots with a hoe and a basket on his back. Several bamboo rats and mountain rats were lactating. Rice and corn alone cannot supply milk. Only fresh and juicy bamboo shoots will do.And those little mountain mice and little bamboo mice are about to be weaned. You can try to let them eat by themselves. They must only eat relatively tender bamboo shoots.Fortunately, adult bamboo rats can eat bamboo, so there is no need to dig so many bamboo shoots.

The bamboo shoots grow very fast. In just a few days, the bamboo shoots are peeled off and grow into bamboo. Xu Ning knows that some bamboo shoots need to be stored.How to store it is a problem. The best way to store it is to get a cold storage, so that many things can be stored, such as strawberries, cucumbers and tomatoes. Come here, there is absolutely no money for basic construction.I can only rely on my own space to keep fresh, but I don't know how long the space can keep fresh.

Xu Ning carried a hoe into the back mountain forest. It was almost dusk. Normally, the forest was very lively at this time, but today it was extremely quiet. What's going on?Axuan and Xiaobao followed him into the woods, and the two puppies wanted to follow, but they were stopped by Xunxu, learning to herd sheep, they had to start with the dog.

Xu Ning felt something was wrong, Ah Xuan and Xiao Bao also walked lightly, there should be no beasts.At this moment, there was a loud bang in the woods, and then the panicked thumping of various birds was heard. Ah Xuan and Xiao Bao also jumped up and shrank to Xu Ning's legs.Xu Ning understood that someone was hunting, no wonder the forest was so quiet.

Xu Ning frowned. Does anyone still hunt these days?Haven't guns been banned for many years?The sound just now was not the sound of an ordinary air gun, but the sound of a bird gun.Xu Ning stood in the woods, wondering if he wanted to negotiate with the other party.Two kittens followed at his feet, looking up at Xu Ning.Xu Ning thought for a while, and decided not to start a confrontation with the other party, but to dig bamboo shoots.

I was in a good mood at first, but when I was disturbed by this incident, I was quite disturbed.Xu Ning lowered his head to dig the bamboo shoots, and then heard someone walking over. His hearing was much more sensitive than before, and he could hear the footsteps of two people at once. One was heavier and the other was lighter. It should be There are two people, one old and one young.

Not long after, someone really came into view, an old man in his 60s and a young man in his 20s, both of them had very ugly faces, and they didn't know where they were from.The young one was carrying an air gun and a net bag with a bag of birds in it, some of which were still dripping blood; the older one was carrying a blunderbuss with a limb hanging from one end Entangled leopard spotted animal.Xu Ning's heart skipped a beat. Could it be a leopard cat?

The two looked at Xu Ning, stopped for a while, and continued walking towards this side. Xu Ning straightened up: "Hunting is not allowed here."

The two of them glanced at Xu Ning, but didn't speak.

Although the light in the forest was a bit dim, Xu Ning's eyesight was very good. He saw the leopard cat hanging on the gun barrel twisted its body, and looked at Xu Ning desperately with its yellow eyes. It was not dead yet.Xu Ning asked, "Did you hit a cat?"

The older man laughed: "You think it's a cat?"

"Sell it?" Xu Ning cut to the chase.

The man said, "200 yuan."

Xu Ning said, "I'll give you 50 yuan. I don't need that much money to buy a live cat."

The man hesitated for a moment: "Okay, 50 yuan, here you are."

The man took off the leopard cat and was about to throw it towards Xu Ning. Xu Ning quickly said, "Don't throw it." He walked over and took the leopard cat, put it on the ground gently, and then took out 50 yuan from his pocket and gave it to him .

The young man said, "I still have a lot of birds here, do you want them?"

Xu Ning shook his head: "No need."

The two walked away with their own guns on their shoulders. Xu Ning added later: "I have already contracted this mountain forest, so don't come hunting in the future." Yes, he may be sentenced to jail, and the other party has a gun in his hand. If he said that, he would definitely feel that he was threatening them, and he might turn around and shoot him.

The two turned their heads to look at Xu Ning, and left without saying a word.

Seeing them leave, Xu Ning hurried to check the leopard cat's wounds. The leopard cat's stomach was hit by the iron sand from the bird's gun, and the flesh was bloody. The guy's stomach heaved up and down sharply, and his vitality was already very weak.Ah Xuan and Little Leopard both squatted aside and watched, Xu Ning quickly poured space water to wash its wound, then opened the leopard cat's mouth, and fed it space water.This guy's mouth was tightly closed, and he refused to open his mouth. Xu Ning had to drop a few drops of water on his mouth. He instinctively stretched out his tongue to lick it, and found that the taste was not bad. He blinked his eyes and focused on Xu Ning. , Xu Ning quickly fed it some more space water.The iron sand on its body should be removed, Xu Ning no longer hesitated, put the leopard cat into the space, stopped digging bamboo shoots, and hurried out of the forest with the basket.

Xun Xu was also rushing this way, and bumped into him head-on: "I heard a noise just now, what's going on?"

Xu Ning said: "Two people were hunting. They killed many birds and injured a mountain leopard. I bought the mountain leopard. Let's go back and treat the wound."

Xun Xu helped him carry the hoe, told the sheep a few times, and followed him back.

Back home, Xu Ning took out tweezers and a flashlight, asked Xunxu to help, and carefully cleaned the iron sand on the leopard cat's wound. The leopard cat seemed to know that Xu Ning was saving it, and lay motionless on its side.The two of them worked until it was dark before cleaning up the iron sand on the leopard cat. Xu Ning poured some Yunnan Baiyao on it, wrapped the wound with gauze, and put it in his own space.

Xun Xu drove the sheep back and put them in the sheepfold.While cooking dinner, Xu Ning said, "It seems that there are many animals in our back mountain, and I am afraid that more people will come to hunt in the future." The ecology finally recovered, and soon someone came to destroy it.

Xun Xu said: "Next time you meet such a person, just call me, and I will deal with them."

Xu Ning shook his head: "No, they all carry guns. It's very dangerous. If this happens, we can only call the police." Their place is not a sanctuary for hunting. Although hunting is not prohibited, holding guns is prohibited.

"Not afraid."

Xu Ning glared at him: "Don't try to be brave!"

"Okay." Xun Xu laughed, Xu Ning was concerned about his safety.

The next day, Xu Ning went to deliver strawberries and vegetables, and also sent the strawberries that Guo Shanshan wanted.Now the vegetables in the greenhouse can be picked except for peppers and eggplants, and the quantity is so large that Xu Tao’s can’t sell them all. After all, his place is not a vegetable market, but a restaurant, that is, the people around and Customers in the store buy some.Usually, except for strawberries, there are some other vegetables left, and Zeng Ying pickles all the vegetables that cannot be sold, which increases her workload.

So Xu Ning thought, should he go to the vegetable market to sell vegetables every day, but going to the vegetable market to sell small vegetables is a very time-consuming thing, and he earns three melons and two dates.After weighing it for a long time, Xu Ning decided to forget it, because he didn't have so much time to spend there.If you can't sell it, then make it into pickles.

Xu Ning came back from the street and looked at the leopard cat in the space. The injury seemed to be less serious. He grabbed the leopard cat and fed it. This thing might eat raw meat, so he ignored the soup bibimbap and smelled it. I didn't want it all at once, but Ah Xuan, Xiaobao and the two little German Shepherds ate with gusto.Xu Ning said: "This guy wants to eat raw meat, but we don't have it now."

Xun Xu said: "Ah Xuan, catch a mouse and give it to it."

Ah Xuan was digging his head into his meal, when his name was called, he turned his head to look at Xun Xu, and then meowed in dissatisfaction, why should he be asked to catch mice.

Xu Ning said: "Have a hard time, Ah Xuan, this guy is a sick man, when he recovers, I don't need your help."

After hearing this, Ah Xuan swallowed two mouthfuls of rice before turning around and going out.When Xu Ning was about to finish eating, Ah Xuan came in, holding a small mouse in his mouth, threw it on the ground, and turned to eat in the rice bowl, but the little leopard had already eaten all the food, Ah Xuan A little angry, he stretched out his paw and pressed the little leopard's head, it's really not loyal!

Xu Ning quickly caught the dead mouse and threw it in front of the leopard cat, and mixed some rice for Ah Xuan, so Ah Xuan was satisfied.When the little leopard saw the mouse caught by Ah Xuan, he wanted to eat it, but Xu Ning stopped him: "Little leopard, don't move, this is for the leopard cat." As he spoke, he brought the dead mouse to the leopard cat's mouth, and the leopard cat lay on the ground. On the ground, I sniffed the dead mouse, then looked at the surrounding environment, and began to carefully bite the dead mouse.Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief and was willing to eat, which meant that the Leopard Cat's body was recovering.

In the morning, Xu Ning and Xun Xu were planting corn in the back mountain, and received a call. It turned out to be from an old classmate Liu Xiaochuan: "Xu Ning, are you home?"

"Yes."

Liu Xiaochuan said: "The last time I passed by your place with a friend, I stopped by to see you. My mobile phone was dead, so I didn't say hello to you in advance. It happened that you were not at home, and I said that I went to C city to buy shrimp seedlings."

"So you came here, my uncle told me. What, do you want to buy food?" Xu Ning asked.

Liu Xiaochuan said: "Well, if you are at home, then we will come over in a while and meet and chat."

About half an hour later, a car drove towards Xu Ning's house. Xu Ning saw that it was not Liu Xiaochuan's Volkswagen, but a pickup truck.The car didn't stop until it reached the yard. Liu Xiaochuan and a man got out of the car, and Xu Ning was already waiting in the yard.

Liu Xiaochuan said: "Xu Ning, this is Boss Chen Fuchen. He is in the wholesale business of fruits and vegetables."

Xu Ning quickly reached out to shake hands: "Hello, Boss Chen! I'm Xu Ning."

Chen Fu is young, in his 30s, looks refined, not like a wholesaler of fruits and vegetables, but like a teacher.Chen Fu smiled and said, "Boss Xu, right? I came to your place before, but you were not at home. I have eaten strawberries and vegetables from your house. The taste is really unusual, not bad."

Xu Ning smiled: "Boss Chen is over the top."

Chen Fu walked into the strawberry greenhouse, bent down and picked two bright red strawberries, put them in his mouth without washing them, and said, "That's right, I'm friends with Xiao Chuan, and I accidentally heard that your vegetable The fruits are grown very well, and they are pollution-free fruits and vegetables that do not use chemical fertilizers or pesticides. I happen to be a green food wholesaler, and I also have a small farm. But you also know that crop growth needs cycles. Sometimes It will inevitably be out of stock. Is Boss Xu interested in cooperating with me?"

This kind of door-to-door business is simply a good thing, Xu Ning has no reason not to agree: "How does Boss Chen want to cooperate?"

Chen Fu said, "How many strawberries and vegetables do you produce every day?"

Xu Ning said: "Strawberries are about [-] to [-] catties a day. Cucumbers, tomatoes and other fruits and vegetables can add up to a hundred catties a day."

Chen Fu said: "The quantity is not too much, but the quality is superior. I want what you produce every day. Let's discuss the price. From now on, you will send it to the county on time every day."

Xu Ning said with some embarrassment: "I don't have a car now. If it's convenient for you, Boss Chen, can you come and drive it by yourself every day?" Calling a car to go to the county town costs at least 50 yuan, which costs so much a day. , it's really not worth it.

Chen Fu thought about it: "You can take it to the town, and then check it on the bus. Tell me when the goods will arrive, and I will pick them up there. The price of the goods should be about the same as a person's ticket. As for Vegetable money, I’ll come to your place to settle the bill once a week, or you can go to my place to settle the bill.”

Xu Ning thought about it, and it would cost five or ten yuan to send it to the county like this, so it's not a bad idea: "Since Boss Chen thinks this method is feasible, then let's do it this way."

As for how to weigh, naturally, Xu Ning weighs here, and then scales over there when he arrives in the county, as long as the quantity matches.

The two discussed the price, and Xu Ning didn't make too many concessions. Strawberries are still 15 yuan a catty, cucumbers are two yuan a catty, tomatoes are three yuan a catty, leeks, lettuce and so on. market price.On the same day, Chen Fu emptied the vegetables and fruits in Xu Ning's greenhouse. Chen Fu looked at the emptied melons and fruit racks and said, "Will you have any more tomorrow?"

Xu Ning said: "It doesn't matter, there will be some every day, and the quantity is a problem." He still has some in his space, and it's not easy to pick them in front of them, so he can pick them himself tomorrow and send them over.

Chen Fu was somewhat skeptical, but since Xu Ning said yes, let's just believe it: "I want to do business with you, and I want things of this quality. Don't fool me with shoddy goods."

Xu Ning laughed: "Of course not, you can inspect the goods. I also want to do long-term business. When all the vegetables and fruits on my mountain come out, I'm afraid I will have to ask Boss Chen to help me find a market."

Chen Fu nodded: "It's easy to say. In fact, I am not only in the vegetable and fruit business. I am also very interested in the sheep and goats and bamboo rats of Boss Xu's house. I will cooperate with Boss Xu further when they are bred in the future."

"Yes." There is someone to help solve the sales problem, why not do it.

Xu Ning originally wanted to keep them for lunch, but Chen Fu said he had to rush back to pack and deliver the goods.When they were leaving, Xu Ning went back to the house, picked a few catties of strawberries and several big tomatoes from the space, put them in a food bag, and handed them to Liu Xiaochuan: "Xiaochuan, thank you for helping me connect. I didn’t grow them, I picked these up and prepared to eat them myself, you can take them back and give them a taste.”

Liu Xiaochuan declined for a while, then took it: "Then thank you."

Liu Xiaochuan and Chen Fu got into the car, and Chen Fu glanced at Liu Xiaochuan's bag: "Why does the strawberry he gave you look bigger than the one I bought?"

Liu Xiaochuan took out one and stuffed it into his mouth: "This one is better than the one you bought."

Chen Fu also took one and put it in his mouth, it was sweet and juicy: "It's really like this, why does this taste so good, isn't it from one piece of land?"

"It should be a piece of land. He doesn't have any other land. Maybe he picked the big ones in the morning."

Someone automatically delivered a door-to-door business, so Xu Ning was so happy that he was so happy that he showed off to Xun Xu with several red and bright pinks: "Look, this is a door-to-door business, and we will be more comfortable in the future. I don’t have to worry about selling my dishes anymore, hehe.”

Xun Xu was happy to see him happy, he didn't care how much money he had, as long as Xu Ning was happy, and of course, as long as he had enough meals.

Xu Ning went to feed the shrimps, poured a bag of rice bran into the creek, checked the creek by the side of the hillside, and found no dead prawns, it seems that this environment is more suitable.He remembered that the person selling shrimp seedlings said that the waters where prawns live should be deeper, so he planned to build a dam in the creek. The high water flows down from the dam, which not only ensures that the prawns have a deep enough water area, but also ensures that this water area is not stagnant water. More importantly, he puts space water in it, so that it will not be washed away all at once.

The next day, Xu Ning picked all the strawberries and vegetables in the space, packed them in bamboo baskets, borrowed a tricycle from Xu Jingshan's family, and drove them to the town with Xun Xu, then took a bus, and delivered the vegetables to the county seat by himself .When Chen Fu heard that they had arrived in the county seat, he drove to pick them up: "Didn't you agree to send them to the parking lot for me, and I will pull them by myself."

Xu Ning said: "Actually, I am more interested in Boss Chen's business model, so I want to come and see it."

"Then get in the car."

Xu Ning and Xun Xu got into the back seat of the pickup truck. Xu Ning said, "It's good to have a pickup truck. It can carry goods and people. It's so convenient."

Chen Fu smiled: "Boss Xu can buy one himself."

Xu Ning smiled embarrassingly: "I would like to, but I'm short of money, so I can only think about it now."

Chen Fu said: "I see that, Boss Xu, you have money everywhere. Before the end of the year, you will definitely be able to buy a pickup truck."

"Then I will take your word for it."

Chen Fu took them to the scale first, and saw that the fruits and vegetables sent by Xu Ning were better than yesterday's, so he couldn't help being very satisfied.The money was weighed on the spot.

After selling the vegetables, Chen Fu led them to visit his processing workshop and store. He has a processing workshop in Jianing County, an organic fruit and vegetable store, and a farm outside the city.The processing workshop is mainly responsible for packaging fruits and vegetables in boxes and plastic wrap, and then sending them to markets around the world.The store retails organic fruits and vegetables. It is located on the busiest street in Jianing County. The storefront is decorated very high-end. All the fruits and vegetables inside are packaged in disposable boxes and plastic wrap, and the prices are not usually expensive.For example, a box of eight strawberries sells for ten yuan. They are not the big strawberries from Xu Ning's family, but ordinary strawberries.In addition to fruits and vegetables, there are also other foods in the store, such as chicken, duck and fish, which are all authentic local products.

Xu Ning was speechless: "Boss Chen, the things in your store are so expensive, can you sell them?"

Chen Fu just laughed: "You underestimate the spending power of Jianing people. For many people, expensive represents a kind of health and taste."

"Then you are all disposable boxes, which is too wasteful and not environmentally friendly."

Chen Fu said: "The boxes here are all custom-made. I actively recycle the boxes that leave from me. As long as they are not dirty, they can be used repeatedly, and members can also earn points."

Xu Ning thought it was a good idea: "Boss Chen is also a very thoughtful person. I have to learn from you."

Chen Fu said with a smile: "It's good to cooperate together. If you have any good things, you can take them from me. As long as the quality of the things is up to standard, the price is negotiable." Nowadays, food safety is a big problem, and rich people pay attention to life. Quality and health are the first priority they pursue.

Xu Ning thought of the goats, goats, bamboo rats, fish and shrimps he raised, and he would not worry about selling them in the future.Xu Ning asked again: "Boss Chen, besides selling your products in the store, where else do you sell your products?"

Chen Fu said: "Our Yikang organic food chain store is a national organic food chain store, and I am one of the bases. There are several chain stores in our province that are supplied by me. Our chain stores do not distribute goods uniformly. , Food quality is checked by each supply base itself, as long as your food is found to be unqualified, you will lose the qualification to operate the chain store in the future.”

Xu Ning looked at him: "It sounds very strict."

"Of course. So we basically tend to grow by ourselves, and rarely buy from outside. Last time Liu Xiaochuan brought some fruits and vegetables from you back home, and boasted to me that the taste was particularly good, but I didn't quite believe it. I passed by your place the other day. , Liu Xiaochuan asked me if I wanted to go to your place to have a look, so I got up to see it. After I got it back, it was strictly inspected, and no pesticide and fertilizer residues were found, so I proposed to cooperate with you." Chen Fu said , "I did the test in private, I hope I didn't offend you."

Xu Ning shook his head: "I can understand that in business talk business, Boss Chen's approach is to be responsible to himself and others." Things are so expensive, if you want to make money, you must pay attention to word of mouth.Xu Ning thought to himself, it would be great if his own products could be branded, like the Yikang organic food chain store, and there would be no worries about sales in the future.
