Chapter 88 Buy some watermelon seeds and glutinous rice
"But it seems a little late to plant watermelons now?"

After all, it is best to plant watermelon in spring, mainly in March. The temperature rises in spring, which is very suitable for seed germination and growth.

However, in the northern region where the climate is cold, planting has to wait until mid-to-late April.

In addition, when planting watermelons, you should choose a sunny field near a water source, provide a warm growing environment, and cover it with mulch to increase the growth rate of watermelon seedlings.

And now it's June.

Sow the watermelon seeds promptly.

It will probably take more than two months for it to mature.

That’s what it’s like in October or November.

By that time, the weather had turned cooler.

Even if the watermelons bear fruit, they probably won’t grow very big.

"However, if I use spiritual spring water to water them, these watermelon seeds should be able to germinate quickly."

"It will still be able to grow quickly by then, and maybe it will bloom and bear fruit by the end of this month."

Su Mu thinks it's totally okay to give it a try.

After all, he has tested the effects of spiritual spring water many times.

Aren’t the vegetables in the fields growing very well now?
And the fruit is also very good.

“Since you’ve tried it, let’s give it a try.”

"It's still early. Go to the town and buy some watermelon seeds."

"Also, check to see if there are any melon seeds or the like. If so, buy some."

Now that the decision has been made, Su Mu plans to set off now.

He changed his clothes, took his car keys and left the room.

Close the door.

He said to the big guys in the yard.

"It's like I'm going out. I'll be back in about an hour."

"Don't cause trouble at home."

"Morishan, this time you are keeping watch at home, and occasionally go to see if the little goats in the field are still there."

"Wang Wang~"

Shoushan shook his tail and answered Su Mu with his voice.

It seemed to be saying that.

Master, please feel free to go out and leave everything at home to me. I will take good care of you!
After warning Shou Shan, Su Mu came to the car and then drove off.

along the way.

Su Mu can also see some rice fields.

People in the village are clearing weeds for rice in the fields.

And the rice in the fields.

It's already over 60 centimeters tall.

It's June now.

In more than two months, the rice in the fields can be harvested.

Because there are more people and fields in their villages.

And there is a lot of rice planted.

So when the time comes, it is natural to have machines come over and harvest directly.

The money is not expensive either.

An acre of land costs about two to three hundred yuan.

After all, their village is aging a bit.

The young people all went to the city.

Plus the weather is slowly getting hotter.

If you go to work on fixed assets by yourself, you can only get up after five o'clock in the morning and go directly to the fields.

I'll be back after nine o'clock in the morning.

And how much can be done in such a short time?
So it’s better to just ask the machine to come over and do the harvesting.

An acre of land only takes a few minutes.

After half an hour.

Su Mu finally came to town.

As soon as he arrived in town, he went straight to the agricultural supplies station.

Because there are also a lot of fruit seeds at the agricultural supplies station.

But this time when Su Mu came here, he didn't see the owner of the agricultural supplies station, Miao Gaoshuang.

But there was a girl at the front desk.

"Okay, I'm going to buy some watermelon seeds and some melon seeds."

"Watermelon seeds?"

The young lady in front of the cashier's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw such a handsome guy like Su Mu walking over.

But when she heard that Su Mu wanted to buy watermelon seeds, she was a little surprised.

After all, it is too late to plant watermelons now.

"Sir, are you sure you want to buy watermelon seeds?" the young lady asked uncertainly.

"Well, I'm sure."

Su Mu understands.

Perhaps in this girl's eyes, he is a strange person.

After all, no one is growing watermelons now.

but!
He did come here to sell watermelon seeds.

"Okay, sir, we have several kinds of watermelon seeds here."

"Like this, these are seedless watermelon seeds, this are unicorn melon seeds, this are Black Beauty watermelon seeds, and this are flower skin watermelon seeds, which one do you want?"

The cashier girl took out several packets of watermelon seeds and introduced them to Su Mu one by one.

"Well, take a pack of seedless watermelon seeds and a pack of flower-skin watermelon seeds."

Su Mu thought for a while and finally decided on two types.

First of all, this seedless watermelon is a variety of watermelon without seeds.

In addition, the average weight of each seedless watermelon is 3 to 3.5 kilograms, and the average yield per mu is about 2250 kilograms.

In addition, seedless watermelon has a large export volume in China and has strong competitiveness.

The most important thing is that there are no watermelon seeds in it.

Although Su Mu eats watermelon, he doesn't mind spitting out watermelon seeds.

but.

Since seedless watermelon seeds are sold here, you can definitely buy some yourself.

Then we will see the actual situation after we go back to sow seeds.

And another flower-skinned watermelon.

Flower-skin watermelon is an oval-shaped watermelon variety with alternating light green and dark green skin colors.

Because the flower-skin melon is relatively large and heavy, it is also called the "big gourd".

The rind of flower-skin watermelon is very thin, and each one weighs an average of about 10 pounds.

The peel is between 1-2 cm and can be used to make preserves. The watermelon jam made from the pulp is also very sweet and delicious.

If the skin of a watermelon is too thick, there won't be much meat inside.

On the contrary, a watermelon with a thin skin has a lot of meat.

So in the end, Su Mu chose these two types of watermelon seeds.

"Yes, sir."

"We also have melon seeds here, here you go."

The cashier girl smiled slightly, and then brought Su Mu another pack of melon seeds.

Look at these two.

Su Mu felt it was almost done.

As for other fruit seeds.

He doesn't need to either.

After all, there are many fruit trees planted on his family's land.

Although there is no way to get results this year.

but!
This time next year, I'm sure there will be something gained.

Then by that time, I will be alone at home and won’t be able to finish the fruit.

"Well, that's all."

Su Mu nodded and waited for the cashier lady to put these three kinds into a small pocket.

He took out his mobile phone, scanned the code, and the payment was successful.

"What should I buy next?"

"By the way, it seems it's almost the Dragon Boat Festival."

"Should I buy some glutinous rice and make rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival?"

Su Mu took out his mobile phone and looked at it curiously.

I found that it wasn’t long before the Dragon Boat Festival, only a week.

And after I went back, I didn’t know that I would come to town again that day.

Since you're here this time, let's buy everything we need to buy.

As for the glutinous rice, of course you have to buy it in the supermarket.

There is also a large supermarket in their town.

Basically everything inside is there.

After a few minutes.

Su Mu walked out of the supermarket carrying a ten-pound bag of glutinous rice.

The ten kilograms of glutinous rice, if wrapped entirely into rice dumplings, would be impossible to finish.

But the remaining glutinous rice can be used to make other things.

For example, glutinous rice cakes and steamed buns!
