Chapter 453 Choosing a Place
The educated youth who went to the countryside lived a miserable life, partly because they had no land.

Just like at the Educated Youth Home, growing vegetables in a house that is about to collapse will not be enough to eat if you don't save money.

Moreover, it was originally a place where houses were built, and the soil inside was not very suitable for growing vegetables.

Not to mention them, even the soil quality of Zhou Ziwen's vegetable plot is not very good.

However, when he used the culture medium for growing mushrooms and mixed it into the soil, it actually changed part of the soil quality.

Later, fertilizer was made using soil methods, which improved the soil quality in the vegetable field again.

After doing so much work, there is no shortage of vegetables at home.

Hearing Zhou Ziwen's unkind words, Zhou Weiguo and Wu Dagang were both a little ashamed.

In fact, this is also a problem left over from the beginning.

When the educated youth went to the countryside, the general mentality was that the educated youth came to compete with them for food.

After all, we now have a production team system, and to put it bluntly, we are eating from a big pot.

Everyone works together and shares food together.

But the production team only gets a small amount every year. If it is given to the educated youth, they will get less.

When it comes to personal interests, even the most amiable people will have some thoughts in their hearts.

What's more, the villagers in the countryside have simple folk customs, but they are also tough.

Of course, there is a saying that the educated youth in the Educated Youth Academy also have some problems themselves.

In terms of physical strength, they are no match for these villagers who have been working for a long time.

And because they haven’t done much work, and most city people have never even planted crops, they naturally aren’t very good at work.

In particular, some educated youths did not go to the countryside voluntarily at all. They had lived a hard life in the countryside, and some of them were already lying down.

If he hadn't been looking forward to returning to the city one day, he would have found a family and completely integrated into the countryside.

"Xiao Zhou, just tell me what you think. You also know that due to some historical reasons, you educated youths have never had your own land, but there is no way around it. If you want to solve it, it will probably be a bit troublesome." The captain spoke.

"What's the trouble? The production team can't arrange it for us, so we can cultivate it ourselves. If anyone is willing to cultivate it ourselves, then go ahead and do it. If you don't want to, don't force it."

"In this way, we don't occupy the land in the village. Isn't this a matter of killing two birds with one stone?"

Zhou Ziwen raised his eyebrows and said.

The main reason why he is so enthusiastic is that he wants to have a piece of his own land.

As he said himself, this land is used to grow ginseng.

To prepare for a rainy day, although it would still be a few years before the educated youth returned to the city, before that, he also wanted to make some income for himself.

Although he is not interested in money, he is not an immortal who does not eat the fireworks of the world.

If you want to live a good life, it is absolutely impossible to have no money.

No matter what world you are in, money is a good thing.

With this thing, most of the world's worries can be solved.

If it can't be solved, it's just not enough money.

According to his idea, he would ask the production team for a piece of land and then get some private land for himself.

I also grow ginseng in my private plot. After three to five years, this batch of ginseng will be sold through the channels of the production team.

After selling the money, he will have the start-up capital.

When the time comes to return to the city, you will have the capital no matter what you do.

"Create it yourself?"

Zhou Weiguo and Wu Dagang looked at each other and made decisions in their hearts.

"Xiao Zhou, this is a good idea, but even if you cultivate it yourself, you can't cultivate more. Each person can cultivate up to three points of land, and this land will be taken back by our production team when you leave."

Zhou Weiguo pondered for a moment, then spoke. "This is what it should be." Zhou Ziwen nodded happily.

His requirements are not high, as long as he has a piece of land to grow ginseng.

In total, each person gets three points, which is already a lot.

He and the Chen sisters combined have nearly one acre.

If all ginseng is planted, it will not be a problem to sell it for tens of thousands of dollars when harvested.

Of course, with so much money, if he wants to take it all, it depends on his ability.

But these are things for the future. Now he has not even started growing ginseng, so why should he care about those things?
"Xiao Zhou, I can leave this ginseng matter to you. Do you need anything here?" Zhou Weiguo asked.

"There is nothing needed." Zhou Ziwen shook his head, "As long as the village lets me plant it, I will look at the land in the next few days, and then go to the mountains to find some ginseng seedlings. After that, you can just wait and sell the ginseng to make money."

"Haha, you kid, just go ahead and do it. If you need anything, tell us in time and we will find a solution."

Zhou Weiguo and Wu Dagang both maintained a supportive attitude towards Zhou Ziwen's idea of ​​growing ginseng.

But they don't particularly care, after all, the growth cycle of ginseng is too long.

Even if you want to make money, it will be a few years later.

Now, they are only interested in growing mushrooms.

And now is the spring plowing period, so they are very busy.

"At the meeting tomorrow, I will tell everyone about the private land. I believe you educated youth will be very happy." Wu Dagang said from the side.

"No, thank you Uncle Zhou and Uncle Wu for their support." Zhou Ziwen said thank you.

I'm afraid at this time, Zhou Weiguo and Wu Dagang still don't know how profitable growing ginseng is.

When he grows ginseng in the future, I believe they will be very enthusiastic.

"Stop talking so much and go about your business!" Wu Dagang waved his hand angrily.

"Then I'll go first."

Zhou Ziwen stood up with a smile on his face and turned around to leave.

His purpose of coming to Wu Dagang and Zhou Weiguo had been achieved. He had a lot of things to do next, and of course he didn't want to delay here any longer.

It's not like he was idle, chatting with two bad old men here.

By the time he came out of the production team, it was still very early.

After thinking for a while, he was ready to take a look around the village.

Ginseng seedlings can be harvested later, first find the land to plant the ginseng.

Ginseng has special requirements for soil quality. If the soil is unqualified, ginseng will not survive.

However, this kind of land is still easy to find here, the difference is just a matter of size.

Before he thought of planting ginseng, he took a quick look and found that he already had several goals.

One of the places was not very far from his home, only a few minutes away.

However, he had only taken a rough look before and didn't know how square the land was exactly.

There are two other places suitable for growing ginseng, but those two places are a bit far from the village. Even if they are used, it will have to be done later.

After coming out of the production team, Zhou Ziwen didn't stop and arrived at his favorite destination soon.

This land is authentic loess with good drainage, strong water-holding capacity and good air permeability, making it very suitable for growing ginseng.

Zhou Ziwen carefully inspected the land and estimated that it was about two to three acres.

The area is not very large, but not small either.

However, this land has not been cultivated before. If you want to use it, you need to cultivate it again.
