I build an oasis in the northwest

Chapter 69 Haloxylon nutritional potion formula
After all, when he planted trees, he strictly followed the planting distance between different saplings. There would never be a phenomenon where the saplings would die due to lack of sunlight due to insufficient spacing between trees.

When planting trees, each type of sapling also has regulations on the planting distance between saplings based on factors such as branch height, root depth, density, water absorption, and soil supply.

However, the number of saplings planted is also related to the planting place.

Like the thousand acres of land that Chen Mu rented.

Close to the road is a sandy land with degraded grass vegetation. About 70 Haloxylon ammodendron trees can be planted in one acre.

But if you start from the oasis and walk in the opposite direction to the road, the soil there is almost completely deserted. In that kind of Haloxylon, you have to reduce the number of trees to 45-50 per mu like the Tengger Desert. .

After finishing speaking, he remembered the sick saplings of Shilin Forestry before, and he couldn't help adding: "Is it because the seedlings are not good enough, so the survival rate is so low?"

After listening, Dad Chen thought for a while, paused, and then carefully asked about the amount of fertilization and the frequency of watering, he was speechless for a moment, and then slapped Chen Mu hard on the back.

"There's nothing wrong with Miao, it's you who have the problem!"

"These saplings have been growing in the northwest for so many years. They have not had enough water, the soil is not fertile, they have lacked nutrients, and they have been able to survive in the wind and sand. Now that you are watering and fertilizing, the saplings cannot adapt to such a good living environment."

After listening to the explanation, Chen Mu opened his mouth, but finally chose not to speak.

Fine!

It's just that I'm used to the barren environment, so I can't enjoy the blessings!

Dad Chen continued: "And there are certain things to be careful about when watering. You cannot directly use freshly pumped well water for irrigation when the temperature is high, such as at noon or in the hot summer. The best time to water is in the morning or evening. When the sun is not so strong..."

The father and son just said this and walked back to the store while the other listened.

Chen Mu replied with a calm "hmm" on his face, but he couldn't wait to go to the seedling field in his heart.

Just when I was taking tourists to play in the afternoon, the agency called and said that the company ID had been issued.Therefore, the first link in the chain of tasks [Registering a Forestry Company] has been completed, and the ten bottles of seedling medicine as rewards have also been distributed to the system warehouse.

He couldn't wait to see what magical changes would happen to the seedlings after using the seedling medicine.

Chen Mu was doing two things at once. He was chatting with Father Chen, but he was opening the system backpack in his mind.

There were eleven bottles of potions in the empty backpack.

Ten bottles are seedling potions, and one bottle is the novice gift pack that the system asked for - Vitality Potion.

However, because there was only one bottle of potion and it could only be used on five saplings, it was of no use, so it was temporarily left unused by Chen Mu.

After closing the system backpack, he opened the task column again.

[System Task: In the name of the company, sell [-] saplings]

[Task reward: Haloxylon nutritional potion formula to prevent gerbils from eating the roots]

Looking at the column of rewards, Chen Mu murmured: "This is for me to sell the potion to Wu Lashan!"

After all, Ulashan, which was originally the hometown of Cistanche deserticola, was now forced to develop a secondary industry - gerbil meat.

Many Cistanche deserticola growers cannot kill them completely because Haloxylon ammodendron and Cistanche deserticola take too long to grow, and the gerbils in the fields reproduce quickly.

However, gerbil meat is tender and delicious, and it is also quite popular in the market.

As a result, many growers were forced to change their minds and changed from growers to farmers.

"What Ulashan?" Father Chen asked after hearing a few words.

"It's nothing, I just said it." Chen Mu replied casually.

At this time, the father and son returned to the store, and Chen Mu happened to see the application for a farming contract loan on the table.

I picked it up out of curiosity and saw that the column for breeding species and the column for signature had not been written yet.

He raised the application in his hand: "Dad, didn't you say that an expert will come to give a lecture today? Why haven't you filled out this loan application yet?"

"Alas..." Father Chen sighed, and explained all the troubles of raising Tibetan chickens.

Chen Mu spread his hands.

This is why he is unwilling to engage in breeding.

Trouble and trouble!
After finishing speaking, Father Chen smiled sarcastically: "Son, we can't quit the breeding business. If you think Tibetan chickens are troublesome, let's raise other ones?"

Chen Mu sighed and didn't want to speak.

If there are no sales channels for raising other products and you have to rely on yourself to sell them, isn't that just thinking about losing money?

So if you don't want to raise this Tibetan chicken, you have to raise it!
"Let's raise it, if it's troublesome, it's troublesome." At worst, let two more people take care of it later.

Thinking about several employees in my mind, I thought of Uncle Shuanzi and Aunt Shuanzi who were a bit slow in planting trees and making grass squares because of their disabilities.

Chen Mu thought for a while and then added: "Dad, let Uncle Shuanzi and Aunt Shuanzi go over to listen to the class later. When Tibetan Chicken enters the scene, let them take charge of this area."

In this way, when they become proficient in doing it in the future, they can also make money by breeding on their own.

Father Chen was silent for a long time. Thinking of Shuanzi and his wife, his heart softened: "Yeah."

After saying this, Chen Mu mentioned another animal that he wanted to raise together - rabbits.

"Since we are going to engage in breeding, let's raise some rabbits together."

One of the current money-making projects, Oasis BBQ only has grilled fish and grilled watermelon, with a single variety.

Roasted whole lamb is delicious, but the price is a bit expensive, and most of the tourists who come here are family-based tourists. One can’t finish it, and there are many kinds of delicacies after that. I can’t remember to eat it. Store it in the refrigerator and wait for it to go. Take it away, the temperature is high, the place is far away, and it is easy to break.

So the few waves of tourists here are not too few, but not many roasted whole lambs were sold.

But Hadir's salary was the best among all the employees. Chen Mu felt a bit shortchanged just by asking him to kill and bake fish for barbecue.

So some other items must be added!
Rabbits are his carefully selected breeding animals.

They cuddle quickly, the bunnies are cheap, their fur can be sold to fur collar factories for money, their meat is delicious, they can live on pasture, and they are easy to feed. They are very friendly to farmers.

The most important thing is that it doesn't look big, and you can easily eat one. If you add sales promotion, maybe the sales volume will be really good.

"Rabbit! Okay, I'll ask tomorrow." Father Chen agreed.

After that, the father and son discussed the size of the chicken shed, the number of Tibetan chickens, the number of chicks, and the nutrition of the feed.

Time passed quickly while talking.

Soon, Dad Chen, who was tired all day, became sleepy.

The night watchman, Lao Yang, has completed his patrol and is resting in a tent in the oasis.

So this is a good time to apply chemicals to the seedlings without attracting attention.

So, Chen Mu, who had been waiting for a long time in his heart, walked out of the store briskly.

Because the three kinds of saplings have different requirements for soil, water, and dosage of rooting fertilizer when they are planted, and the forest farm is large enough, so he set aside three mu of land for each kind of saplings as a seedling nursery.

At this time, the first seedling field he came to was the sandy date field.
