Chapter 57 Planting Cherry Trees
"Have you eaten? Xiao Chang, come over and have something to eat."
Gu Guoqing said after seeing Gu Chang finish the call.
"it is good!"
Gu Chang didn't hesitate. He had just exercised in the morning and was now hungry.
……
Just after finishing breakfast, Gu Chang received a call from Lao Zheng.
"Hey, Xiao Chang, the deal is done. Two hundred chicks, no less than one hundred and fifty hens; I want twenty ducks and ten geese." Lao Zheng said.
"These chickens have grown quite big, and the price is higher!"
"That's great, Uncle Zheng. I'll transfer the money to you." Gu Chang said happily.
"No need. The payment for the first batch of fruits has come. I will transfer it to you after deducting the money." Lao Zheng said.
"Haha, that's fine too!" Gu Chang said cheerfully.
"It will probably be delivered to Shangouzi Village in the afternoon. Please pay attention to receive it then." Lao Zheng reminded.
"Okay, Uncle Zheng, I'll stay in the village today and won't go out."
……
Not long after hanging up the phone, Gu Chang received a transfer reminder from Lao Zheng.
yuan!
Later, Lao Zheng also made a note that the first batch of payment was 100,000 yuan, minus 1,000 yuan for the chickens.
One thousand yuan probably can't buy so many chicks, I guess Mr. Zheng gave me some change.
More than half of the fruit from the 50 acres of fruit trees have been harvested!
According to Gu Guoqing's estimate, the 50 acres of fruit should be able to fetch around 60 yuan in payment this year.
Due to health reasons, Gu Jianguo basically did not take care of the fruits this year.
If you take good care of it, the yield should be much higher!
……
"Uncle, does the labor team still need to pick fruit today?" Gu Chang asked.
Second Uncle has been keeping an eye on the labor team, and Gu Chang has no idea what the progress is.
"No need today. The labor team has worked too hard these past two days. The fruits they picked these two days are enough for today's goods. I was thinking of giving them a day off today to have a rest." Gu Guoqing said with a smile.
"But they refused to agree and didn't want to rest, haha..."
How can I want to rest when I get paid so much money every day?
Gu Chang smiled and said, "Then let's not pick fruits today, let's plant fruit trees."
"I have exactly thirty cherry trees here. I planted them all in one morning and then rested in the afternoon."
"Where did you get the cherry tree?" Gu Guoqing asked curiously.
"Keep it secret..." Gu Chang said mysteriously.
……
These thirty cherry trees are the reward that Gu Chang received from the system.
The system said that this is the cherry variety it focuses on cultivating. A total of 308 groups were experimented with and the best quality cherry variety - A308 was selected!
Based on the concept that products produced by the system must be high-quality, Gu Chang thought that these thirty cherries were probably good things and had to be planted as soon as possible.
Most fruit trees are planted in spring.
Cherry trees can be planted in spring and autumn. The best time to plant cherry trees depends mainly on the climatic conditions in each region.
Generally, spring in northern regions is relatively dry, so it is difficult to manage saplings when they are planted in spring.
Therefore, cherry trees are often planted in northern regions in autumn.
The advantage of this is that the seedlings will grow slowly and sprout in the same season, and they will sprout and branch early in the spring of the second year, so that strong seedlings can be produced. However, it should be noted that before the soil freezes after autumn planting, the soil should be buried to prevent freezing.
Now is autumn, a good time to plant.
There is a piece of vacant land to the north of the pig farm, which is perfect for planting cherry trees.
He acted immediately. After breakfast, Gu Guoqing contacted people and started planting cherry trees.
Gu Chang also went over and looked for a while.
"Xiao Chang, look at this cherry tree, it's not the same as planting ordinary trees." Gu Guoqing said with a smile.
"Oh? Uncle, is there anything special about this kind of cherry tree?"
"of course!"
"For fruit trees like cherries, it is best to choose loose, deep, fertile sandy soil for planting."
"The root system of cherries is also relatively shallow, so they are easily blown over by the wind. The planting site should be selected in an area that is not damaged by wind, and larger holes should be dug when planting."
Gu Guoqing said as he dug the hole.
"It is also necessary to apply sufficient well-rotted organic fertilizer to ensure plant growth."
"After planting, tamp down firmly and water thoroughly!"
Gu Chang who was standing by praised in his heart after hearing this. It was true that every profession has its specialties!
Second uncle is patient. From now on, this orchard can be entrusted to second uncle.
Gu Chang now has the idea of becoming a hands-off boss...
