Xianggong farming

Chapter 213
Seeing the eagerness on Jiang Jialei's face, Ji Xinmiao talked slowly: "Keeping fresh is not difficult, what is difficult is the process. We have a way, but I want to remind Mr. Jiang, because this year is a trial planting, and melon seeds are not the same. Not much, the first batch can pick up to five or six thousand catties, and the second batch will not exceed ten thousand catties.

Although you can make a lot of money if you transport it to the capital, you will startle the snake.It's better to send all the pumpkins this year to the provincial capital for sale, where there are many rich families.Moreover, most of the rich families have the habit of hiding ice, as long as you tell them to put the whole pumpkin in ice water or well water to cool, it will taste better.I'm afraid that even this little amount of melons won't be enough to sell in the provincial capital. "

It's just that she didn't say that if the world had the chemical fertilizer potassium dihydrogen phosphate, the watermelon would be fresh for at least [-] to [-] days.Now that there are no such chemicals, she can only use wood ash containing phosphorus and potassium from plants to replace them.So she didn't dare to take such a long time.

Jiang Jialei stared at Ji Xinmiao for a long time before saying: "Miss Qi is right, but if the provincial capital wants to sell nearly [-] catties of pumpkins at once, the price will not go up. If there is really It’s a good way to preserve freshness. After the pumpkins are ripe, we can keep them and sell them slowly, so that we can sell them at a good price.”

What a profiteer, it's an exclusive business, and a long-term business, doesn't he want to sell her watermelon as a gold melon?
Anyway, Jiang Jialei said so, which means that the wholesale price of the Qi family will not be low.

So Ji Xinmiao said slowly: "The way to preserve this pumpkin is actually very simple, as long as it is simply deposited in sand."

Shopkeeper Chen's eyes lit up: "Little sister-in-law Qi said that it's fine to pick the pumpkin and bury it in the sand?"

Ji Xinmiao smiled: "It is true that they are buried in the sand, but it is not enough to just bury them, and many things have to be done. Xianggong's comrade-in-arms wrote this in the secret method of melons. The method of keeping melons fresh, but with conditions.”

Jiang Jialei said with a face: "Miss Qi, tell me what conditions you want, as long as the Jiang family can do it, they will definitely go all out."

Seeing that he is someone who really wants to cooperate, Ji Xinmiao elaborated: "To keep the pumpkins fresh, all you have to do on the road is to put a two-foot-thick layer of sand on the bottom of the basket and bury the seven-ripe pumpkins in it." Then cover it with sand one foot and five inches thick, and it cannot be pressed. It should also be noted that the pumpkins that have been picked should leave at least three vines with vines outside the sand layer, and the cut pumpkins should be wiped immediately Plant ash to prevent drying and rot, and sprinkle water on the sand layer from time to time to keep it moist.

After arriving at home, do the same, but the room must be ventilated, otherwise it cannot be kept for a long time.Of course, if there is a cellar, it is not necessary to pad sand, but to pad hay.However, the preservation time in this way is not as long as that of using sand. "

Jiang Jialei's eyes moved with the movement of Ji Xinmiao's lips. He couldn't connect with the radiant woman in front of him who climbed up to him more than a year ago.He didn't cross until Ji Xinmiao finished speaking, and there was a moment of silence in the shed.

Shopkeeper Chen didn't know what to say, and the method that sister-in-law Qi said was unheard of.He lived for most of his life before he realized that there are people beyond people and beyond.

Ji Xinmiao knew that what she said would surprise people, but there were not many watermelons this year, and if she didn't sell them at a high price, she would not be able to realize her plan to build a farm.

She had a dream before, that when she accumulated a certain amount of capital, she would buy a mountain and a field, build a modern and ancient farm, and become a real landowner.

Originally, she didn't want to be so sharp, Qi Liu's actions deeply stimulated her.She will work hard to get out of that dilapidated house of the Qi family as soon as possible!
However, precautions are indispensable.

"Mr. Jiang, shopkeeper Chen, you know that my Qi family has grown this kind of fresh fruits and melons that the villagers have never seen this year. It is impossible for no one to be curious and not leak it. If you say, In the future, this method of earning a lot of money must be preserved, and I am afraid that it will be achieved by the influence of the Jiang family in the future. The Qi family is just an ordinary peasant family. If this method of making a lot of money that the world does not know suddenly appears, it will inevitably be guilty. Therefore, we As early as in the village, the news was spread that this melon technique belonged to the Jiang family. It was only because I found suitable land when I came to Shangping Village last time, and entrusted it to the Qi family to grow it."

Jiang Jialei's face was full of approval and pride: "You are quite good at taking advantage of the situation. You know that you don't have this ability, so you don't want to lose face and suffer. But you are right in thinking, this method can't keep the Qi family, but the Jiang family should have this ability. If If someone asks about it in the future, you can push it to the Jiang family. Save more seeds this year, and it is best to plant them in the capital’s Zhuangzi next year. Then it will be more practical to understand that the method is the Jiang family’s statement.”

Hearing this, Ji Xinmiao cursed secretly: Fox!But there is no risk for the sake of money, and it is cheaper for your Jiang family!

As soon as Jiang Jialei spoke, Qi Dalang's face changed: "Thank you Mr. Jiang for your generosity, for being able to take on such a big matter for the Qi family. However, if the Jiang family finds it difficult, you don't have to care too much. It is the Qi family's own If someone really wants to think about it, they should find a way to solve it first. If they really don’t have the ability, then they will ask Mr. Jiang to do it.”

Jiang Jialei blushed suddenly, what happened to him?Why are you still as impulsive as your cousin?
Unexpectedly, before he apologized, Lin Chen's personality was exposed again: "I said you don't know what to do, do you know how many people want my cousin to make a promise? Hmph, something is going to happen, you If you really have the ability to solve it, I will count on you! With your melon ability, if the capital gets news, it is a trivial matter to go to you, and it is also a trivial matter to kill your family, understand? Don’t think you will plant Two melons, I think they are masters in the world!"

Lin Chen's words immediately made Qi Dalang blush, thinking of the years of detention there, isn't it just what the young master of the Lin family said?He really lived a comfortable life, so he forgot everything, silently lowered his head, picked up the pole and went to the field.

Ji Xinmiao's face changed drastically after hearing what this little boy said, she gave Lin Chen a hard look, hurriedly caught up with Qi Dalang, dragged his hand and said, "I'm sorry, Mr...."

Qi Dalang also understands his wife's thoughts, but as a man, he just can't afford to lose this face.So he waved his hand: "Daughter-in-law, I'm not angry, don't worry. You didn't do anything wrong, so why are you sorry? I just feel that I am too incompetent! If I have an official position, maybe no one can Make it up!"

Immediately, Ji Xinmiao stayed in front of him, did she really do something wrong?
