Build a farm from the mountains

Chapter 24 Clivia

You know, at that time, the average annual salary of people in Spring City was less than 280 yuan, and the house price was about [-] yuan per square meter.

A pot of Clivia can not only go directly to the store to exchange for things, but also can be exchanged for refrigerators, color TVs, and even houses of hundreds of square meters.

It really echoed Newton's words: "I can calculate the orbits of celestial bodies, but I cannot calculate the madness of people."

If you want to grow Clivia, you have to rely on the farm store. After it is updated, there should be flowers. If you sell Clivia seedlings, you can use your wealth to buy them and grow them for a year and a half, just to sell them.

It's a pity that people don't allow reselling finished products.

Buying seedlings requires start-up capital. This amount is not a small amount, and it is estimated to be a bear gall.

Wu Hao got up and pulled the plow back home, so he had to ask how much it cost to cover the land. First, earn the wealth value of the first mission to update the store.

Then wait until the spring of next year to build a small shed in the yard to raise Clivia, and then plant a la carte, as a practice technique.

Going to Chuncheng to plant Clivia is nonsense, and people who don't know it there keep planting.

He stopped and walked all the way, and changed dogs when the dogs were tired. He kept dragging the plow until it was dark in the village, and went home from the last street.

It was cold outside, and the dogs barking in front of him didn't come out to let him relax. As long as people who came out saw the pigs, they would help pull them back.

When the time comes to share the meat, it's not him who picks it up, he can't afford it, the whole village has lived together for so many years, most of the places are good, and more than half of the people will come.

There is no one who does not refuse to treat pigs in the Northeast. A bunch of relatives and friends come, at least half a pig, as well as staple food and wine.

Food is expensive, and some people still eat corned buns. It is not easy for his family to eat stewed meat. They will be divided after they are beaten, and they will be secretly pulled into the yard. Wu Hao is panting with exhaustion.

He opened the door and entered the house and said, "Father, go and carry the pig in."

Gao Lijuan looked up and saw that her son was fine and asked in relief, "What pig?"

"A wild boar was caught by a dog, and an otter was also caught."

"Oh!" Gao Lijuan knew how powerful her dog was, so she could just go and beat Xiong Blind, but when she turned her head and saw Wu Weiguo didn't move, she said, "Hurry up!"

"Huh!" Wu Weiguo put on his shoes and lowered his head with a cold face, but he didn't forget to stare at his son. He was exhausted from cleaning up the two big piles of snow in the yard, and he was instructed just after the meeting.

"Aren't you happy to eat ready-made ones?" Gao Lijuan picked up a feather duster and tapped the edge of the kang.

Wu Weiguo didn't dare to talk stubbornly, walked to his son and gave him a pestle: "Get up!"

Wu Hao curled his lips, walked to the edge of the kang and just sat down when he heard a voice from the outside room: "Little calf, come out and help."

"Mom go." Gao Lijuan hurriedly got off the ground to put on her shoes, how could Wu Hao let her mother do it, and went out to help Lao Wu carry the pig into the house.

"It's not small!" Gao Lijuan put down the pork leg and said with a smile, "It's enough for the whole family to eat for a whole winter."

"Otter skin can be sold for dozens of dollars, and there are more than 30 catties of meat to eat." Wu Hao looked at Old Wu with a smile.

Wu Weiguo said with a sullen face, "I have to clean up the pigs."

"I'll peel off the otter skin."

Hearing his wife's words, Wu Weiguo rolled his eyes. She can peel it off but she doesn't know how to deal with the skin. The otter is frozen and needs to be left overnight to peel it off tomorrow morning. Then he will still be the one to do the work.

"Where's the bean bun?"

"Playing with Little Tudou in the front yard." Gao Lijuan turned her head and told Wu Weiguo, "Chop off two corners and send them to the front yard. Bring your girl back and let's have a good meal."

"Ah." Wu Weiguo agreed very straightforwardly, picked up an ax and chopped off two corners of pork.

He cut off another piece and kicked it up to pick it up and walked out the door, only to feel that something was wrong. It seemed that he was the one who delivered the meat, picked up the children and cooked.

Gao Lijuan began to boil water to prepare the pork. Wu Hao picked up the knife and skinned the wild boar. No one would eat the skin of the fried egg, and it smelled bad if it weighed more than two hundred catties.

Pigs are not stupid, they are really lazy, and no one wronged them. Wild boars don’t get hungry when they sleep, and piglets may get up to urinate and eat.

Cannon eggs don't like to move and will urinate directly, or even roll over. Sometimes they will lie in the urine pit after getting up and eating. The bigger the cannon eggs, the more sexual they are.

"Fat meat can be eaten for a year with oil left."

After hearing this, Wu Hao said helplessly: "Mom, can we not save so much? It doesn't take much effort for me to shoot wild boars with a gun and a dog."

Gao Lijuan remained silent, bowed her head and turned on the fire, ignoring him, 1 in her heart unwilling to let her son enter the mountain.

"I want to grow vegetables in a greenhouse and buy some pots of Clivia." Wu Hao hurriedly changed the subject.

"Stop the greenhouse? How much does it cost?" Gao Lijuan asked in confusion, "Why do you raise Clivia?"

"My classmate's family is in good condition. When he graduated, he told me that the price of Clivia will definitely increase. A pot can sell for at least a thousand yuan."

Wu Hao panicked, and didn't dare to quote more, for fear of scaring his mother. Communication and transportation are inconvenient these days, and news cannot be heard in remote places.

"More than 1000 yuan?" Gao Lijuan exclaimed: "Who will buy it!" Her family may not be able to save so much money in five years.

"In Spring City, some people sell it, while others buy it. When I was in school, I heard from my classmates that it was going to be more than 200 per pot."

When Wu Weiguo carried the child into the house, he said unceremoniously, "Then the price can't be lowered?"

"It won't fall, it will only rise. If it really falls, it's like growing flowers." Wu Hao said with a smile: "It's okay to grow vegetables in the greenhouse anyway."

Wu Weiguo put down the small bean bag and said angrily: "I don't have money to hold it for you? Where do you put it on the plastic sheet? Bamboo is not easy to buy."

"My classmate can buy it, but she said that she would close the shed." Wu Hao continued to lie. He really didn't lie before, but now he is more careful.

Wu Weiguo said bluntly: "No money!"

Xiaodoubao bit her finger and walked over to her elder brother to stare at the pork. Wu Hao patted her on the head and said, "Winter greens are easy to sell and are worth a lot. They can be sold for several months. I plan to buy the land in the east when I make money."

"Our family's more than 200 yuan is not enough to cover the greenhouse." Gao Lijuan does not know how much it will cost, but the cost is definitely not low.

"Selling otter skins, if you can't do it, you can still sell wild boars. I'm sure I'll be rich if I go to the mountains twice."

Gao Lijuan was unhappy when he heard that he was going into the mountains, so Wu Hao hurriedly said, "It won't cost much to build a smaller greenhouse."

Wu Weiguo said angrily: "Don't say that the wind is the same as the rain. In this weather, the rammed earth and mud will freeze."

The rural economic conditions are not good, bricks and tiles cannot be bought, and only soil can be used to build houses. There are two types of adobe houses, one is rammed earth houses, and the other is brick-built houses.

The people who do the tamping and laying the foundation of the house are young and strong people, and it is even more tiring to take off the big brick with the big mud.

Dig about one meter into the ground, and the black soil layer will disappear, and the yellow clay below is just right for mixing mud.

There are exposed yellow mud in many places along the river, but the soil there is divided into several layers, like a sandwich mixed with black soil.

In the loess with big mud, add some wheat fish roe, which is the husk that the wheat has taken off, with the wheat awn.

It is best to add reeds or hay, and cut them into pieces with a guillotine to increase the pulling force.

Then wear knee-high boots and kick hard in muddy water to get even.

Finally, use a large shovel to turn it back and forth to form a large mud pile, and let it stand for a day until the mud and water are sticky before it can be used to remove the mold.

The tools used to remove the blank are very simple. The four frames are nailed together into a wooden mold, and the wall can be built after the mud is dried in the shade.

The work in the countryside is definitely dirty and tiring, so he doesn't want to do it.
