Song Tan's Notes

Chapter 1321 1321. The Lively Neighbors

It was so lively in front of Zhou Shunshui’s house, the first one to sell vegetables!

  Yes, Lao Song’s dishes are delicious, and they sell well online, but don’t big bosses take care of that?

What does it have to do with the vegetables they grow in their fields?

Oh, that does matter. They bought these seedlings last winter under the persuasion of the village party secretary. Each family provided one person to work for two days and paid 10 yuan per plant.

  Although the Song family was kind and said that it was the first year and they were afraid that they wouldn’t be able to grow well, so the seedlings they gave them were quite big...but these were only 10 yuan worth of seedlings!

Among those who had signed the contract and paid half of the money, there were still two families who were clamoring to get their money back and refused to plant the crops.

To be honest, their family is a little weak.

  But there is no way. The Song family is going to recruit people to do the work this year. If the cooperation talks fall through and they are not hired to do the work, wouldn’t that be a big loss?

As for the guarantee that someone will come to pick up the vegetables - oh my, haven't you heard enough of this kind of empty talk over the years?

Their village is reliable. The leaders above are all reliable. But when I went out to work, I heard from other villages that they were either fooling around with planting fruit trees or planting some new product, but when the fruits were ripe, they couldn't sell them, and they even owed loans to the credit union.

Who can I talk to to explain this?

Zhou Shunshui and his wife were not very smart. The farthest place they had ever been was Fucheng, where they worked. They wanted to regret it, but their son, who worked in the city, said that since the family had leased so much land and needed people to work, it would be better not to offend them at the beginning...

Who knows!

  The vegetables were transplanted in February when it was freezing cold. I covered them with straw mats every night to prevent them from freezing. But how meticulous is that... What's so meticulous about these radishes and cabbages?

who knows!

I have only been planting for a little over a month, and it takes a little effort to cover and lift the straw mats, but nothing else! Just like that, I can earn more than 4000 yuan from selling it today?!

After deducting the cost, there is still more than three thousand left!

When did it become so easy to make money? During this period, he and his wife also did a lot of work for the Song family, and they also earned more than 3000 yuan.

At this moment, Zhou Shunshui and his wife looked at the villagers who came over to ask questions in the yard, and they couldn't help laughing until their cheeks were sore.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't seen the money yet. Secretary Zhu said that the money will only arrive in the account after people click to receive the goods."

He tried hard to curl his lips.

"But he's still rich, isn't he?" The neighbors started to shout, "Our Party Secretary Zhu may be young and inexperienced, but he never lets go of empty words."

"That's right! She said that the live broadcast is for selling things in our village. As long as we have good things, we can sell them. Can she owe you this little money?"

"That's not necessarily true..." Zhou Shunshui wiped his face and said, "If something goes wrong after it's sent over, we'll have to pay for it. We have to pay for that."

"Oh my, how bad can these radishes and cabbages be? We all heard that we chose this expensive Fengfeng Express specifically to get them fresh."

"I've never seen cabbage costing 7 yuan per pound... He was even saying yesterday that he was going to cut one and eat it himself."

"What do you want to eat? A cabbage costs dozens of yuan. Can't you buy two kilograms of meat? My mother's family has some Chinese cabbage from our past. I'll chop two for you later."

"Have you signed up to sell online? Secretary Zhu said that it's troublesome to sell online. We have local buyers who will come to buy them in a while."

"People come to buy it at our door, and the price is a little lower, 5 yuan per pound, 5.5 yuan."

"Then calculate the price, the difference between the two is not much."

"I'm fine with either. I'll sell whichever one comes first."

"I want to sell online. My daughter asked me to come up and say a few words when she sells our vegetables next time. Our vegetables are well served. If I say a few words, people will remember me. Then my family will sell other things faster next time."

"Of course! The first two live broadcasts were done by the Song family and Secretary Zhu, who brought the girl from the neighboring village. They said we couldn't find anyone to support us..."

"Then I want to say a few words, my dishes are not bad either." "You didn't mix up your own dishes, did you? If you did, not only would you have to pay compensation, but next time, no matter if it's from the Internet or the buyers, they won't recommend our dishes to you..."

Everyone was chatting animatedly. Just thinking about the seedlings they had planted before, they could earn three to four thousand yuan. They wanted to rush into Lao Song's house immediately and ask how to sell the next batch of seedlings.

March and April are the best time to plant melons and beans!

……

Meanwhile, at Old Song's house, Party Secretary Young Zhu was also thinking about what to plant next to generate income for the villagers.

"It's not good to always rely on you like this." She looked at Song Tan, and was quite curious at this moment: "What are your plans?"

Song Tan thought about it and said slowly: "This is just a preliminary idea. Whether it can be done or not depends on your opinions. What do you think of the leftover bean sticks?"

Not to mention, everyone present accepted it well.

Firstly, the bean curd sticks from Lao Song's family are delicious. Secondly, they have a lot of dishes, so I eat them every now and then, and I don't really mind.

Secretary Xiao Zhu thought about it and nodded, "Okay, this is easy to take care of, has a high yield, and is not picky about the planting environment. It's quite suitable. Are you also the one who provides the seedlings?"

Song Tan shook his head: "I also watched the live broadcast this morning. In fact, they can grow a lot of vegetables, but most of them are not cost-effective with express delivery."

"For example, this cabbage at 7 yuan per pound is only a little more than the purchase price offered by Lao Zhao after deducting the shipping cost. So I was thinking, can the village collective register for secondary processing of agricultural products?"

"In the summer, you can let them grow cowpeas as much as they want. After they are harvested, whether they are dried or made into sour cowpeas, they can be sold online at a steady pace."

It also saves them from having to buy vegetable seedlings all the time. They can't rely on others for every penny they earn.

As for Lao Zhao harvesting vegetables...

  Tian Tian's family was still very motivated and wanted to keep selling vegetables. But she thought about it and realized that she had nothing to give to the Song family, so why should she keep taking the vegetable seedlings?

In this regard, Yan Ran and the other two have different opinions——

"Then help us build an experimental field."

"From the harvest of the villagers' vegetables, we can see that transplanting seedlings will also affect the quality of their vegetables."

"What about seed-keeping iteration?"

It was impossible for them to ask about the unique formula of the Song family, but how to preserve this advantage and then promote it was the most fundamental proposition for them as agricultural students.

"The teacher helped us apply for the Houji Seed Laboratory project, and Song Tan is a partner. But the three of us don't have much experience or achievements, and we don't have much funding, otherwise we would have cooperated with you."

"We select superior seeds for you every year. Correspondingly, we do not interfere with the cultivation and planning of the fields, but we need various data and sampling during harvest."

"How about it, is it okay?"

Update one.
