Chapter 114

Li Dong's father, Li Dong's uncle, and Li Dong are all 12 years apart in age.

Li Dong's father is 48 this year, Li Dong's uncle is 36 this year, and Li Dong is 24 this year.

All three of them belong to the tiger.

When Li Dong was young, he often played with his uncle, and the relationship between the uncle and nephew was very close.

Li Dong's uncle has no skills.

He is also relatively dull, and his legs and feet are even a little disabled.

He couldn't do the heavy work.

I also plant a field at home, and do odd jobs in nearby farms during slack.

Earn tens of thousands of dollars a year.

But Aunt Li Dong is quite shrewd and can speak well.

When Li Dong asked his uncle to do something, the uncle smiled naively and said, "Whatever I can do, I just plant a field and do odd jobs to earn some pocket money. It's good, so you don't have to worry about me." , Just do your own thing well, you’re all right, I’m happy to see you.”

Aunt hesitated to speak.

Li Dong's father also wanted to help his brother, so he pondered for a while, and asked Li Dongdao: "What good job do you have for your uncle to do? It's best to be lighter, don't be too tired, and there is no need to do big business, you Uncle is not material for big business, just enough to support the family."

Li Dong's mother said: "Can I let Shuguang build a shrimp pond? It doesn't need to be too much. Shuguang and Wenjuan can take care of it for ten acres or twenty acres. We can also help out. Earning one hundred and eighty thousand a year is pretty good."

Li Dong's father and aunt were a little moved.

Li Dong shook his head: "It's not good to raise shrimp, it's too much work, and you don't earn much."

"Oh, that's not much, is it? How much more do you have to earn?" Li Dong's mother said immediately.

Aunt Li Dong also said, "It's a lot of money."

Li Dong still shook his head: "My uncle raises prawns. It's not clear to you that raising prawns can keep you hungry for a year. People, don’t you still have millions of debts outside? How many shrimp farmers do we have, and how many of them died because they couldn’t get money?”

Li Dong's father nodded: "That's true, those second-hand traffickers are really worthless."

"Then what are you talking about?" Li Dong's mother asked.

"Don't uncle like to farm? The Mabu slope behind our village, let's wrap it up for him to grow cherries, grapes, and strawberries. What do you think?" Li Dong said.

There is a small barren hill behind Lijia Village, with about a thousand mu of land. Because irrigation is inconvenient and the soil quality is not suitable for growing crops, there are only a few pieces of cultivated land opened up by individuals here and there, and the rest are barren hills. .

In the past two years, the picking industries such as cherries and grapes have just emerged, and there has not been a big fire. In addition, most of the people in their village and nearby rely on the sea to eat the sea, so no one thought about including Coming down from this mountain, it has been deserted all the time.

In the previous life, a few years down the road, a boss from out of town took a fancy to this barren hill behind their village, and contracted it for 50 yuan a year for [-] years.

Then I planted cherries, grapes, and strawberries on this barren hill, and built a resort. I don’t know if it’s the soil quality or they just planted them well. In short, the cherries, grapes, and strawberries here are very delicious. During the picking season, there is an endless stream of tourists who come here to pick.

It just so happens that the mountain is next to the sea, after picking, go to the sea to catch a sea, come back and have a farm banquet in the resort, stay for one night, the tourists have a great time playing, and the boss is also earning a lot of money.

Moreover, this picking garden has also greatly promoted the local economic development. In the next few years, hundreds of picking gardens have sprung up like bamboo shoots after the rain. The coastline of the city has been carefully planned and built into a leisure resort. Every year during the Sea Catch Festival, not to mention the surrounding cities, even some tourists from the capital and the south come here from thousands of miles away.Several local villages also live side by side, and rural development has embarked on a fast track for a while.

And all of this started when the out-of-town boss contracted the barren hills.

Although when he was reborn, the popularity of the picking garden had subsided a lot, but at least in the past ten years or so, he could make a lot of money.

In this life, how could Li Dong give up this opportunity to make a fortune to others?

However, it is still difficult to truly build this barren mountain into a well-known picking garden.

Such as planting technology issues, management issues, publicity issues, and so on.

These problems can be solved by the second uncle.

However, there is still him.

Li Dong doesn't know much about the planting techniques of cherries and grapes, and his management is a mess, let alone publicity, but he is rich.

As long as you have money, if you don't know the planting technology, you can find someone who understands it to give advice. If you can't manage it, you can find someone who is good at it. The publicity is easier, just spend money on advertising.

As the saying goes, there is nothing difficult in the world, only for the rich.

When he heard that he wanted to take over the barren hill behind the village, the whole family hesitated.

My mother said first: "Is this possible? Just that barren hill, among other things, watering is a big problem."

"For irrigation, we can dig a well. There is groundwater under our barren mountain." Li Dong said.

This is not what he said nonsense, because that barren mountain, whenever it rains, there are several springs on the mountainside that emit water.

The big boss in the previous life just drilled several wells on the mountain, and later the government built another canal, which solved the water problem in one fell swoop.

"It's true. Look at Longwang Bay on the mountain. No matter how dry it is, the water in that bay has never dried up. The older generation said that there is a dragon down there. I guess, just like Xiaodong said, it must be There is groundwater, and there is a lot of it. It should be no problem to rent this mountain and drill a few wells." Li Dong's father said.

My aunt was a little confused and said: "The key is that we don't understand cherries and strawberries? We can grow wheat, corn, and peanuts. Let's go backwards. We have never grown cherries before."

Li Dongyi waved his hand: "It's okay, I'll contact some experts when the time comes, and just go over and give some advice."

In fact, Li Dong doesn't know any experts, but it's no problem, he is rich, and Yuncheng Agricultural University has many experts in this field. When the time comes to find their teachers from Yunda University, they should be able to connect with the experts and professors from the Agricultural University. of.

The uncle said again: "Oh, the mountain is not small. If it is contracted, it will cost a lot of money. You have to buy seedlings and dig a well. It's a mess. It's a lot of money, right?"

Li Dong said directly: "Don't worry about the money, uncle, I will pay. I will pay and you will contribute. We each have half of the shares, how about it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his father slapped him on the head and scolded: "You little white-eyed wolf, are you helping your uncle or ordering your uncle? Give back half of the shares! You Uncle loves you so much since he was a child, isn't it right for you to pay some money to rent a mountain for your uncle? If you give me any shares, I'll cut you off!"

Li Dong wanted to cry without tears, and said, "Dad, how could it be as simple as you said? Do you think it's enough to wrap a mountain and plant trees?"

"Then what else?" Dad asked back.

"I want to build this mountain, not only to help my uncle, but more importantly, I want to develop this mountain well." Li Dong said.

"Develop that hill? What's there to develop on that broken hill?" Dad was puzzled.

To put it bluntly, the top of the mountain is just a small dirt bag, not even a small hill.

Apart from planting some fruit trees, I don't know what they can grow. Dad really can't see anything worth developing on that broken mountain.

There were people who wanted to contract it to mine stones before, but they dug a few pits and found out that the stones here are not good, and there is no mining value.

Otherwise, the mountain would not have been barren until now.

Li Dong said: "I want to turn this mountain into several cherry picking gardens, grape picking gardens, and strawberry picking gardens for tourists to come and pick."

"What is it? Picking garden? What do you mean?" Dad was even more puzzled.

"Picking garden is to let tourists pay money, and then go to the orchard to pick casually. In addition to eating fresh fruits, the more important thing is to let tourists experience the fun of picking." Li Dong explained.

"Isn't that nonsense? Let people go in and pick it up casually, so it's all picked up for you, right?" Dad said immediately.

"That's right, even if I don't pick it clean for you, it will be ruined for you." Mom also said.

"Oh, it's not as bad as you said. There are already many picking orchards in Yuncheng, and there is even a cherry festival in Beigou, which attracts many people to pick cherries every year. Of course, other orchards also have requirements. Yes, the picked cherries can be eaten on the spot, but if you want to take them away, you have to spend money. Think about it, how much can you eat by yourself? Two or three catties are enough to kill you. Now how much is a catty of cherries? Money? At the cheapest time, ten yuan and three catties are still very good. One person charges 20 yuan for tickets, even if you eat three catties, you still earn ten yuan for nothing, which is much more cost-effective than picking it up and selling it yourself What's more, picking cherries by yourself is not an easy job, isn't it? It costs money to hire someone to pick cherries, and now let tourists pick them by themselves, which not only saves the effort of picking, but also earns more money, killing two birds with one stone." Li Dong said .

"That's true." Li Dong's father nodded slowly.

"I'm afraid that people will ruin it for you." Mom still has some concerns.

"Oh, mom, don't worry, people have been using this picking method for many years, and they haven't seen anything ruined. The tourists are here to play, and whoever has nothing to do will ruin it for you. Besides, we can It will be fine to install a few surveillance cameras in the orchard," Li Dong said.

My mother was relieved a little, and my father thought about it again: "Even if you let someone pick it yourself, it's not a development, right? Let your uncle do it by himself. What else do you want to mix?"

Li Dong was very helpless, so he had to explain patiently: "I said, Dad, do you think that the picking garden is just for people to pick it by themselves? If you just have a dilapidated orchard like this, with just a few trees, who will come? Huh? It has to be developed, built, and operated. To provide tourists with one-stop services of food, drink, entertainment, and the entire orchard, we have to build it like a park. In addition to the picking garden, I plan to build another resort. It depends on the situation later. Rebuild a few more parent-child experience farms, and these require continuous capital investment, operation and management. I roughly estimated that the investment will be at least tens of millions. If you let my uncle do it himself, he can do it."

What he said shocked the whole family.

"Oh, so much money?" Dad was surprised.

"What do you think? This is a big project. Let me tell you, if this picking project can really be implemented, it will not only make money for us, but also drive the development of our local economy. This is a big deal." Li Dong intentionally He said bluffing.

It can't be said to be bragging. According to the experience of the previous life, it is indeed possible to promote the development of the local economy.

Of course, the premise is that he has to manage the picking garden well.

If the management is not good and it can't be done, let alone promote the development of the local economy, he will have to lose a lot of money himself.

The uncle said: "I can't do such a big business, I'd better farm the land honestly."

Li Dong said: "Why can't you do it anymore? You don't need to worry too much, you and your aunt are actually in command. When the time comes, we will definitely have to hire a few workers to work."

The uncle said again: "If this is the case, there is no need to talk about any shares. I will go over and look after it for you. You can pay me a salary of [-], which will be very good. How much do you want now?" Ten million investment, and give me half of the shares, what am I doing? No, no, I can’t take this share.”

Dad said: "Oh, second child, stop nagging, this matter is settled like this. When you turn around, second child, you should take the time to discuss with the third master about the contracting of the mountain, and talk about the price. Since Xiaodong wants Do it, then do it in a serious manner, don't procrastinate, settle the matter on the top of the mountain this autumn, and plant trees in the beginning of next spring."

Li Dong said: "That's right, Uncle, we are a family, why are you still looking out like that. Besides, I definitely don't have the time and energy to take care of this orchard, so I have to rely on you and aunt to contribute. I pay and you contribute. Isn't this a matter of course. My dad is right, you should quickly discuss the contract with my third grandfather. After the contract is down the mountain, you have to quickly find someone to level the land. If you need to dig a well, you have to dig a well. Well, I also want to find a way to contact the fruit seedlings, and we will plant trees as soon as spring next year."

The second uncle saw that Li Dong and his son had said the same thing, so he didn't refuse any more.

Thinking of doing a big business, my uncle couldn't hide his excitement, and he was gearing up, eager to start doing it right away.

That night, the three of them drank a lot of wine.

A few days later, Li Dong took his parents, uncle and aunt to the best hospital in Yuncheng, and gave all four of them a physical examination.

Fortunately, my father only found a little polyp in the stomach, which is not a big problem, and it can be controlled by taking some medicine. After half a year, I will check again, and if it is under control, it will be fine. If it cannot be controlled, it will be surgically removed.

Li Dong let out a long sigh of relief.

In the previous life, it was probably because of this polyp that my father didn't treat it in time, and eventually developed into cancer.
