The fairy of space also farms

Xu Ning was thinking about Xunxu to buy a fan, that guy had never seen an electric fan before, would he buy a fan?The more I thought about it, the more I felt unreliable. At least I should have found pictures online for him to look at, and I should have told him to ask someone for an invoice. If it was not suitable, I could go back and return it.Do you want to make a phone call to talk about it?But he wondered if it would be too dangerous for him to answer the phone while driving.So he hesitated so much, and Xun Xu came back before the call was made.

Xu Ning ran over anxiously, and saw Xun Xu take out a box from the truck: "Electric fan!"

Xu Ning looked at the icon of the fan on the box: "Didn't I ask you to buy a floor fan? Why did you buy a bedside fan?" Such a small bedside fan, blowing on two big men, where can it reach?

"Isn't it this?" Xun Xu looked at the fan, "This is the cheapest, I bargained with someone, he asked for 80, I bought it for [-] yuan." His expression was quite complacent.

Xu Ning didn't know what expression to use to express his feelings. He bought such a small bedside fan for 80 yuan, and bought a big desk fan for 70 yuan. He was really slaughtered.But he couldn't dampen Xun Sequence's enthusiasm: "It's okay, but it's not the big fan I want. I'll buy it next time."

Xun Xu waved his hand, arrogantly: "No, I'll buy it next time. I'll bargain."

Xu Ning: "..."

Summer is a peak season for growth. Under the sunshine and rain, the crops are growing rapidly at a visible speed, almost every day. At the same time, all kinds of insects are also growing crazily, absorbing the nutrients of the plants .Xu Ning found that many crops had begun to grow worms, and the leaves were curled up, or they were eaten up with dots.

Xu Jingshan told Xu Ning to buy pesticides and spray them quickly, otherwise the bugs would eat them.Xu Ning felt very embarrassed, he really didn't want to spray pesticides, if sprayed with pesticides, the things would not be sold to Chen Fu, but if this continues, the things will be eaten sooner or later.

Xun Xu saw that he was frowning: "What's wrong?"

Xu Ning said: "Everything we grow is full of worms. I don't want to spray pesticides, but what about the worms?"

"What are pesticides?"

"Pesticides are poisons that kill insects, but they also remain on crops. It's not good for us to eat them ourselves."

Xun Xu said, "It's simple, just let the birds catch the worms."

"Can you handle those birds? I can't."

Xun Xu pointed to the swallow's nest under the eaves: "Let them call, it will definitely work." He said to the swallow's nest, "Hey, do us a favor, call more birds, and help us get rid of the bugs in the back mountain." I ate them all."

That afternoon, Xu Ning found thousands of swallows on the wires in front of his house. They were crowded together on the wires, as if they were in a meeting. These swallows kept flying to and from the back mountain. Come back to roost.He hadn't seen so many swallows for many years, and many people in the village also said that they hadn't seen so many swallows for many years, and they didn't expect there to be so many swallows.Swallows are beneficial birds, and they have a sacred status in people's minds. Bird hunters do not hunt swallows. However, with the reduction of birds in recent years, the number of swallows seems to be decreasing sharply. Now there are so many swallows suddenly, People couldn't help being very surprised.

And this was just the beginning. On the second day, there were more types of birds on the back mountain. In addition to swallows, there were sparrows, tits, magpie robins, starlings, orioles, woodpeckers, and even crows.Birds, big and small, flew towards the back mountain overwhelmingly, and landed on the grass, vegetable fields, melon fields, and corn fields.Many people came to watch the fun. I have never seen so many birds gather together in my life.

Xu Ning was completely taken aback: "Xun Xu, is this the swallow who came to help us catch the bugs?"

Xun Xu raised the corner of his mouth: "Hmm, what do you think?"

Xu Ning almost didn't laugh out loud, he learned the um-huh in a decent way: "It's good, but will it be too big to attract attention and cause others to be suspicious? Maybe someone will come to hunt birds." He was worried It would make him feel very sorry that the men with the air guns and flechettes, which had come to help him, should lose their lives here.

Xun Xu said: "I'll pay more attention, these birds will stay for two days at most before leaving."

Xu Jingshan was also very surprised by this, and ran to his nephew's house: "Ning, why are there so many birds here?"

Xu Ning pretended to be stupid: "I don't know, what are those birds doing here?"

Xu Jingshan said: "Hurry up and drive away these birds. Many birds eat young shoots. You just planted those things. Don't you want them?"

Xu Ning was dumbfounded when he heard that, so he hurried to the back mountain to see, and found that many young shoots and shoots were eaten by birds. Xu Ning wanted to cry, but found a bamboo pole to drive away.

Xun Xu was herding sheep in the back hill, and saw him chasing birds with a bamboo pole, he felt strange, so he ran over quickly: "What's wrong? Why do you want to drive the birds away again?" After so much effort, so many birds were attracted, why did they have to drive them away again? .

With a mournful face, Xu Ning pointed to the crops in the field and said, "Look at them, they not only eat insects, but also sprouts. How can things grow without sprouts?"

Xun Xu: "..." After a while, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go and explain to Yan Zi."

Xu Ning looked at the sprouts eaten by the birds, and felt depressed. After all, they were still animals, unreliable.After a while, Xunxu came back: "The swallow said that it was not allowed to eat sprouts, but only worms, but some troublemakers came in."

Xu Ning lowered his head to check carefully. Fortunately, most of the birds were still obeying the rules, and only a small part of the sprouts were eaten. The main sufferers were the newly planted young watermelons and other young shoots, which had to be replanted up.

In the afternoon, the birds gradually dispersed.The big swallow under the eaves seemed to know that something was wrong. When they saw Xu Ning and Xun Xu, they were all quiet and stopped screaming.Xu Ning said to Yanzi: "I don't blame you for this matter, let alone you, we humans also have many unruly guys, and these unruly guys exist in that race. Generally speaking , I still want to thank you, come and help me catch bugs every once in a while."

When Big Swallow heard what Xu Ning said, he chirped a few times to show he understood.

After this incident, Xu Ning no longer dared to let Xun Xu send those animals casually, especially the birds, which were huge in number, untrained, mixed in good and bad, and seriously harmful.

Because the birds came to help, Xu Ning did something extra for no reason, that is, replanting seedlings. Fortunately, there are still many seedlings raised in the space.In the early morning of the next day, Xu Ning got up to replenish the seedlings. Due to the large number of seedlings, he didn't finish his work all morning, so he had to make persistent efforts in the morning.He was squatting in the field with a bamboo hat on, and the sun was very strong, so it was not suitable for seedlings in the morning, but Xu Ning had space water in hand, so he didn't care about it. He poured space water on each seedling, and then Cover it with the weeds you cut, so that you won't be afraid of losing your life.

After delivering the vegetables, Xunxu was watering the ground. For the convenience of watering, Xu Ning dug a pool on the back hill and pasted it with cement bricks to prevent water seepage. Usually, he pumped water from the stream and added some space When the water is used, it is pumped out with a submersible pump, which saves the pain of carrying water.

Axuan and Xiaobao hid in their dens and slept soundly. The two little German Shepherds liked to go out with their master, and they were playing on their own right now.Xu Ning suddenly screamed the little German Shepherd, and looked up: "What's the matter?" He saw the little wolf running towards him, but the little tiger was gone, "Where is the little tiger? Come to find the sequence, the little tiger is gone." .” Xu Ning hurriedly called Xun Xu over.

The little wolf bit Xu Ning's trouser leg and led him to the edge of the hillside.Xu Ning walked to the side of the slope and saw the little tiger hanging in a bush full of thorns, unable to go up and down, whining helplessly, then looked at the bushes, and looked at the bright red juice on the teeth of the little tiger and the little wolf. Then he understood, and laughed: "Xiaohu, did he fall from greed?"

The two of them were playing here just now, and saw bright red fruits hanging on the bushes, which looked very much like the strawberries grown at home. Xiaohu tried to eat one, and found that it tasted very good, so he asked the little wolf to eat it together, and the two snacks ate it. While eating, he forgot that there was a ridge under his feet. As a result, the little tiger fell down and was hung up by the thorns, screaming.

Xun Xu came over to take a look, then turned around to get the hoe. When he came back, Xu Ning was picking small red fruits from the bushes and stuffing them into his mouth, while talking to Xiaohu: "I told you to eat alone, and don't tell us if there are delicious ones." , deserved to fall."

Xun Xu raised his hoe to dig up those bushes, and fished up the little tiger, but was stopped by Xu Ning: "Don't dig it up, just break it open." He said and handed the fruit in his hand to Xun Xu, "Try it, it tastes good."

Xun Xu didn't care that his hands were still stained with mud, he picked it up and put it in his mouth: "Not bad, quite sweet. What is it?"

Xu Ning smiled and said: "This is called Shanpao, also called raspberry, and its scientific name is raspberry. It's a good thing. I used to eat it when I was young."

The little tiger who was hung in the thorns whined anxiously. The two were desperate to save them. The little wolf was also very anxious. He kept leaning over to look at the little tiger, whining to calm him down.The two unscrupulous masters finally finished eating the raspberries in their hands, and then began to rescue Xiaohu. Xun Xu carefully pushed aside the raspberry stems full of small thorns with a hoe, and then hooked Xiaohu up with the hoe, while Xu Ning Stretch your hands through the gap and grab Xiaohu's ears: "Close your eyes, don't scratch them."

Hearing this, Xiaohu quickly closed his eyes tightly. When he was pulled up, he was scratched in several places, especially a thorn was stuck in his nose, which caused him to whine in pain.Finally rescued this guy, Xu Ning carefully removed the thorns on his body, and poured space water on the injured area: "I'll see if you dare to be greedy in the future."

When the little wolf saw his partner coming up, he hurried over to lick it too.

Xun Xu went to pick raspberries while Xu Ning was inspecting Xiaohu. Although it was small, it tasted sweeter than strawberries. No wonder the two little German Shepherds liked it.He usually herds sheep here, and although he saw quite a few of them, he didn't know that they were actually edible. He only picked the big ones that were red, and in a short while he picked a handful of them in his hand.

Xu Ning plucked the thorns for the little tiger. Seeing that foodie Xun Xu was bending over and busy in the bushes, he knew that he was picking raspberries. When he walked over, he saw a bunch of red raspberries in his hand, and picked them up. Pick it up and put it in your mouth, it's so sweet.Looking back, Xun Xun saw that the corners of his mouth were full of juice and his face was full of happiness, so he couldn't help but want to lick it, but in broad daylight and outside, Xun Xun didn't dare, so he had to lick his own. mouth.

"I'll give you all of these." Xun Xu said and put all the raspberries in Xu Ning's hands.

Both of them ate a lot of raspberries that day, and at night Xu Ning realized something was wrong, and Xun Xu acted extra persistently and bravely, and didn't let it out for a long time.Xu Ning, on the other hand, was beaten up several times, dripping with sweat, even with a bedside fan, Xun Xu was still galloping on top of him, Xu Ning looked at the ceiling feebly, what medicine did he take wrong today, why? It's so fierce, it seems that they didn't eat anything else. After thinking for a long time, both of them ate a lot of raspberries in the morning. Is this the reason?

When Xu Ning got up the next day, he still felt a little sore in his back.He turned on his computer and checked online, and found that the effect of raspberry is to invigorate the kidney and strengthen yang, and he couldn't help but feel black lines all over his head.This does not confirm what he said about Xiaohu, there is a price to be paid for gluttony.

Raspberries can be used as medicine, and there is a small area of ​​artificial cultivation in the Northeast, because there is a market there, but although it is common in the South, few people have noticed its efficacy, and no one has ever planted it.Xu Ning thought to himself, should I grow some? This stuff can strengthen yang and should be very popular with men, but how to sell it and who to sell it to is a problem.Forget it when you think about it, let's talk about it later.

As the weather gradually heats up, the vegetables and fruits in the back mountain can be harvested one after another. Xu Ning grows a lot of vegetables, and they are seasonal vegetables. At the beginning, Chen Fu said that he would harvest as much as he could. In fact, he Now he can't eat so much food, and his own small farm is also producing a lot of fruits and vegetables.Xu Ning began to worry again, should he sell vegetables by himself, even if he went to the vegetable market to sell vegetables, how much could he sell? He had to figure out a way.

This morning, he went to deliver food to Xu Tao, but Xu Tao stopped him: "A Ning, do you have too much food and can't sell it?"

Xu Ning nodded: "Yes, I've been thinking of a way recently." This must be a place that needs a lot of vegetables and fruits for a long time, preferably a large canteen, such as factory canteens and school canteens.

Xu Tao said: "I found a client for you, he will come to have breakfast later, I will introduce him to talk to you."

"Who is it?" Xu Ning was a little curious.

Xu Tao said: "It's the logistics supervisor of the edible oil factory. He is in charge of purchasing the cafeteria. Think about it, their factory is so big, how many vegetables are consumed every day. He eats breakfast with me every day, and sometimes comes to eat. I know The things in your house are good, talk to him later, he will definitely be willing."

Xu Ning was overjoyed: "Then thank you Brother Tao."

In this case, Xu Ning decided to wait and see here. While waiting, Xu Ning went to the kitchen to learn how to make dim sum with Xu Tao. Although he said he wanted to learn last time, he didn't learn it seriously. Too busy, and he's not a housewife.

He thought about looking for schools in the town for a while. Schools like Zhenzhong and No. [-] Middle School each have thousands or even thousands of students, and three meals a day consume a lot of energy.If the school is not good, then they can only be sold to the hawkers in the market. This is not stable, and the hawkers will keep the price very low. All of my vegetables are pollution-free, so it would be a pity to sell them cheaply.

Just as he was thinking, Xu Tao came to call him: "A Ning, come here. This is the logistics director of the edible oil factory, Director Nie. Director Nie, this is my brother, Xu Ning."

Xu Ning stretched out his hand: "Hi, Director Nie."

Director Nie had already heard Xu Tao give a rough idea, so he didn't beat around the bush, and went straight to the point: "Are you Boss Xu's younger brother? I heard that you provide most of the vegetables in his store?"

Xu Ning nodded: "Yes. The vegetables in my family have not been applied chemical fertilizers or sprayed with pesticides. They are absolutely natural and pollution-free green organic food. I also provide vegetables to the Yikang Green Organic Food Company in the county."

"Then why are you still selling it to us?"

Xu Ning said: "Yikang also has a farm. He can't eat so much of my products, so I have to expand the market. Director Nie, it's not easy for everyone to eat safe food now. Do you want to consider my family's food?"

Director Nie tapped his fingers on the table: "How about the price?"

Xu Ning said: "The price I sell to Yikang is much higher than the market price, because they are in the high-end market, and they sell expensive themselves. If I sell it to you, then follow the market price, but the price It must also be fixed, at least it cannot be changed every day, I have too many things to do, and it is impossible to go to the vegetable market every day to inquire about the price of the day."

Director Nie looked at Xu Ning: "What if the market price is cheaper than yours?"

Xu Ning smiled: "Didn't I care about the market price when I was expensive? My dishes are better than the ones on the market. You have eaten them too. No matter in terms of taste or health, you all don't care. deficit."

Director Nie said: "Vegetables that have not used chemical fertilizers and pesticides are usually ugly and easy to age. Your vegetables will not be ugly too."

Xu Ning said: "I use farm manure. I raise sheep myself and use sheep dung as the base fertilizer. You can see whether the stuff is good or not. The strawberries I sell in the store every day have never used chemical fertilizers." If Director Nie is worried, you can still go to my house to have a look, anyway, our place is not far from the town, just a few miles away."

"That's fine, bring vegetables to the factory tomorrow, I have to inspect the goods before I can buy them."

Xu Ning said: "Yes. If we think it is possible, we'd better sign a contract, which will be more stable for both of us."

Director Nie said, "I'll talk about it tomorrow after reading it."

Xu Ning left Director Nie's phone number, and went to the town middle school with some vegetables to sell them.The town is Xu Ning's junior high school alma mater. He still has a lot of affection for it. When he used to go to school here, the food in the town was the best among the middle schools in the town. Bean sprouts, but two meat dishes will be made for each meal, which is called a nutritious dish.Xu Ning was most impressed by the mushroom ham sausage soup, which made the eyes of a group of long-bodied monkey children glow green. In the past, they were trampled on many times in order to grab a nutritious meal.

Xu Ning went directly to the student cafeteria with the vegetables, and found that the person in charge of the school cafeteria was actually the fat old man with a red face back then, but Xu Ning couldn't remember the old man's last name.The old man looked at Xu Ning: "Who are you? Who are you looking for? What's the matter?"

"Teacher, you are still in charge of our school's cafeteria? I used to be a student in the town, class XX." Xu Ning smiled.

"Oh, who are you looking for at school?" said the fat old man.

Xu Ning handed over the cucumbers and tomatoes in his hand: "That's how it is. My name is Xu Ning. My family is in Qianlong Village. Now I have a small farm at home. I raise sheep and grow vegetables. All the vegetables I grow are pure and pure without pesticides and fertilizers." Natural vegetables. When I used to go to school in the town, our school paid great attention to students’ meals, and it must be more important now. So I would like to ask if we need vegetables in the school cafeteria. These are the cucumbers and tomatoes I planted. Here Teacher, try it."

The fat old man looked at Xu Ning in astonishment, he was here for sales, and then laughed: "We have regular people who go to the market to buy vegetables every day, so you..."

Xu Ning interrupted him: "Teacher, have you eaten at Changweixuan?"

The fat old man nodded: "I've been there." Changweixuan is the most famous restaurant in the town now, and everyone knows it.

"What do you think of the food over there?"

"It's not bad." The fat old man gave a relatively conservative evaluation.

"The owner of Changweixuan is my cousin. The mutton in his store, the old goat milk buns, most of the vegetables and strawberries are all provided by me. In fact, I don't have to worry about selling this stuff. People who have eaten it say Good. But I own such a big farm by myself, and I really don’t have the energy to go to the market to set up stalls, so I look for places like schools where the demand is relatively high. I believe that the teacher must still be the same as before. Food safety and nutrition come first, so I come to promote my own dishes." Xu Ning said sincerely.

What he said really moved the fat old man. The school has always paid great attention to the food safety of the students, but there is still one thing wrong with Baimi. Last year they bought beans that had been sprayed with pesticides. As a result, many students vomited and diarrhea. Poisoned, it became a thorn in the fat old man's heart, and his fame for a lifetime was ruined just like that.He looked at Xu Ning: "Your vegetables have never been sprayed with pesticides?"

Xu Ning laughed: "Of course, the teacher doesn't believe that you can go to my farm for inspection. My name is Xu Ning. You can find out when you go to Qianlong Village." He picked up a tomato, wiped it on his clothes, and put it directly in his mouth Biting Li, "Teacher, you should try it too. The taste is sure to be good. I'll leave a phone number for you. If you think it's suitable, call me to make an appointment. I'll deliver it to you tomorrow morning for how much you want. The price of the dishes, It's as good as the market price." Xu Ning wrote down a phone call, then ate tomatoes and left.

The fat old man looked at Xu Ning's back, shook his head with a smile, then picked up a cucumber, which looked tender and raw, took it under the tap and rinsed it with water, took a bite, it was full of fragrance, it really was a good thing.At this time, a canteen employee ran over. "Lao Luo, what are you eating? Hey, there are cucumbers. I'll try one too." As he spoke, he picked up one, washed it with water, took a bite, and immediately his eyes lit up, "Where did you buy it? It's a good thing." , I haven’t eaten such an authentic cucumber for many years.” While reaching for the tomato.

The fat old man hurriedly put away the cucumbers and tomatoes on the table: "This is a student who respects me, don't try to take advantage of it." You have to keep it, take it home and give it to your family to taste.

"Cut, you're so stingy! I'll buy it wherever I buy it."

The fat old man picked up Xu Ning's phone: "Take this, call him and ask him to deliver food to the cafeteria tomorrow."

"what is this?"

"It's the owner of the cucumber you ate, that kid sent it. He said he opened a farm in Qianlong Village, raising sheep and growing vegetables, pure ecology and pollution-free." The fat old man said.

The person who ate the cucumber nodded: "What kind of vegetable should I buy?"

"Ask him what he has, and then make a decision."

Xu Ning came out of the town and went to the No. [-] Middle School to sell. This morning, he went to all the schools in the town. As a result, he received two orders, one from the town and No. [-] Middle School, plus the one from the oil factory. That's three strokes, and there are Chen Fu's ones, a total of four strokes, so he doesn't have to worry about selling his melons and vegetables.
