Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 188: Let those who work away from home come back (Happy Chinese New Year!)
Chuanlai Hotel has collapsed!

Although Guo Tianyou used Feng Shui to solve the problem of Xu Yue's insect-attracting formation, it was only a temporary solution.

But the previous incident was too big a deal.

Even after reopening and doing a lot of public relations, it was of no avail.

The house is deserted.

Shuxiang Pavilion has already snatched away all their customers.

It lasted for a while and then went bankrupt.

Or there is no need to persist any longer.

The building is now listed for rent.

I just don’t know when it will be rented out.

He was unwilling to accept the offer because it was too low.

The price is high and others are unwilling to buy it.

If the restaurants are gone, who would still want those vegetables?

To be precise, it is not that the hotel is gone, but that the Chuanlai Hotel has withdrawn from the Gong'an City market.

There is a store in Jincheng.

But you don’t have to send the food over, right?

Of course, if the vegetables are of the same quality as Taoyuan brand vegetables, then there will be no problem.

Unfortunately not!

There is a big difference.

It even looks far inferior to the ones on the market.

As for the taste, there is no difference.

Is there any point in persisting?
"What kind of salary are you paying? You won't even rent the land," Xu Chengmin said. "Before, Xu Jiangyu and the others approached the village several times. The village committee ignored them. Then, they approached the new village chief. Who would have thought that instead of asking Village Chief Gu to intercede for you to rent their land, they were actually encouraging her to ask you for a rent increase? What are they trying to do?"

What?
God knows what they want to do.

Maybe he just wanted to make things difficult for himself.

Maybe he wanted to offend the new village chief.

"Is Village Chief Gu anybody of note?" Xu Yue asked.

"I don't know about that," Xu Chengmin said. "I only know that they were sent by the district. You can ask your classmate who's the mayor. Don't you know quite a few leaders in the district?"

Is Xu Yue afraid of the new village chief?

Xu Chengmin obviously doesn't think so.

Xu Yue is a man who has a say with the city leaders, so how could he be afraid of a small village chief?

But the county magistrate is not as good as the current one.

The King of Hell is easy to deal with, but the little ghosts are hard to deal with.

Xu Yue hates trouble.

What if we provoke Gu Haixia and expose the person behind her?

That's more troublesome.

Pull out the radish and bring out the mud.

Who knows, there might be a flood that will destroy the Dragon King Temple.

"I just asked that." Xu Yue said, "He was instigated by Xu Jiangyu and others. His IQ is worrying."

Xu Chengmin suddenly didn't know what to say.

The two people in Xu Jiangyu's family have extraordinary mouths.

Didn’t you see that Xu Jiangchuan and the others were persuaded by him to go to your house and make trouble?

Don't underestimate the village gossip!

Gu Haixia has obviously been in society for a short time and is knowledgeable, but it is hard to say whether she has much social experience.

"Oh right," Xu Yue said, "I plan to rent a few hundred acres of land to grow medicinal herbs. I'll have to trouble the village committee when the time comes."

"Growing medicinal herbs?" Xu Chengmin said, somewhat surprised. "Is that something easy to sell?"

"Whatever I grow, it sells well," Xu Yue said with a smile. "I've already finalized the deal with the herbal medicine company."

"That's good!" Xu Chengmin said, "We've rented a few hundred acres more. Do we need to hire more people?"

"Ok!"

Xu Yue nodded.

Not only workers but also managers need to be recruited.

There is no problem for Xu Jiangjing to take charge of growing vegetables, especially since Tian Yizi has been trained for a period of time, there will be no problem at all.

But he knew nothing about growing medicinal herbs.

Naturally, we need to recruit someone with experience in growing medicinal herbs.

As for what Mr. Xu said about being a consultant, he is just a consultant and he will not teach people how to grow medicinal herbs.

Just because he understands medicinal herbs doesn't mean he knows how to grow them.

Even if he understands, can you still ask him to teach?
"How many are you planning to recruit?" Xu Chengmin asked. "There aren't many laborers left in the village right now."

Before, almost every household in the village had someone working for Xu Yue.

At least one.

Some families even work for Xu Yue as a whole.

For example, Li Juemin's family, even including his soon-to-be daughter-in-law Ni Yan.

Of course, his family also has the highest income in the village.

Naturally, Xu Yue's family is not included.

As a manager, Li Juemin earns more than 4,000 yuan.

His wife has three thousand.

His son is taller.

Of course, the tallest one is his future daughter-in-law Ni Yan.

She worked three jobs part-time.

Fishing center, farm, agricultural trade company.

She is Xu Yue's financial eyes in the three companies.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Xu Yue said with a smile.

"Good news?" Xu Chengmin said, "You want to hire someone from another village at a lower price?"

Don’t say it, it may be possible.

If you pay a little over a thousand yuan, I guess people who want to work here will line up outside the village.

"I mean, let the villagers call and ask the young people to come back!" Xu Yue said, "Not all young people are doing well out there. Besides, if the young people don't want to come back, what about those in their forties and fifties?"

Doing well?
There is nothing to say about that. It is impossible for me to come back to farm.

Even if it means farming for others.

But what about those who are not doing well?
Of course, young people in their twenties and thirties may not be willing to come back even if the salary at their company outside is not as high as at home.

They like city life.

What about those in their thirties to fifties?

Especially those who have children at home, there is a high possibility that they will come back.

You can earn money at home, even if it is not as much as outside, there will definitely be more people willing to stay at home.

"That's right!" Xu Chengmin said, "I'll go ask Mr. Tian how many people he plans to recruit so that the villagers can quickly call them back for me."

Why ask Tian Yizi?

Xu Chengmin obviously knew that Xu Yue didn't care about recruiting at all.

Xu Chengmin left in a hurry.

Bringing young people back?

This may be something Xu Chengmin has wanted to do for a long time but has not been able to do.

People always say to leave the countryside and go to the city.

That's for the poor in the countryside.

If people in rural areas can also become rich, who would not want to stay in this place where they can raise themselves?
Who wouldn’t want to stay in this beautiful place?
Xu Yue quickly put the matter behind him.

He went to the back mountain and set up another formation for the chicken farm.

Getting ready to go to Rabbit Mountain.
The hill where rabbits were raised was originally an unnamed hill, so Xu Yue named it: Rabbit Hill.

Rabbits dig holes, so there's no need to heat them up or anything.

What's more, there was a shed built on the mountain with a lot of hay inside.

It doesn't cool them down.

They also don't eat bugs.

Moreover, it is close to the back mountain, so the insects are attracted there and become food for the chickens.

Xu Yue came to see just to see how they were growing.

Xu Yue also went to take a look at the bamboo forest.

There's no need to set up any insect-attracting array there.

Sheep don't eat insects.

Maybe you can also set up an insect repellent array.

Drive the insects away, and then they will be attracted to the insect-attracting array.

When I came back, I met Xu Jiangjing. He seemed to have come specifically to see Xu Yue.

"Xiao Yue, I heard from Fourth Uncle (Xu Chengmin) in the group chat that you're planning to recruit again, but there aren't enough people in the village?" Xu Jiangjing asked, "Can I call Xu Feng and his wife back to make it?"

"Sure!" Xu Yue said, "If Brother Feng and the others are willing to come back, then that will naturally be arranged."

Xu Feng is not much older than Xu Yue, a typical young man.

This is the kind of person the village lacks most.

This kind of people are easier to arrange than those in their forties or fifties.

Because the mind is more active, it is quicker to accept new things.

This is the kind of people the village lacks most nowadays.

As for farming?
There is no one in the village, but when we go to the next village, a group of people will come in one go.

"Fourth Uncle didn't say in the group how many people you want to recruit. If all the villagers outside come back, will there be too many people?" Xu Jiangjing said.

"Not everyone is willing to come back." Xu Yue said, "If there are more real people, I will rent more land or find something else to do."

Are there too many people?
Xu Yue didn't care, and he didn't mind if everyone in the village worked for him.

It might be a bit difficult for Xu Yue to rent all the land in the village now, but he can take it slowly.

The Buling formation can be arranged in stages.

Now he doesn't need to use the Spirit Rain Technique, he just needs to set up the Spirit Rain Formation, and then the key problem will be solved.

The main purpose of planting this area is to set up a spiritual array in the ground and add spiritual rainwater.

Then set up some insect repellent arrays, etc.

The only thing that required Xu Yue to use his supernatural powers was to infuse the seedlings with spirit.

With Xu Yue's current level of cultivation, there is no need to come one by one.

It is entirely possible to come in batches.

In fact, even if it is not infused with spirits, the quality will not be bad, but the growth cycle will be relatively longer.

In addition to improving its own quality, infusing it with spirit also has the function of promoting its growth.

This is faster than before.

At the beginning, Xu Yue was still thinking about the art of weeding.

Later, when he started raising chickens, this magical skill was no longer useful.

The weeds in the field are very useful.

Xu Yue could really eat up all the land in the village.

It just takes time.

After bidding farewell to Xu Jiangjing, Xu Yue went to the earthworm breeding site and the greenhouse where Hericium erinaceus and morels were cultivated.

"Lao Tian, ​​call Lao Huang, and come to my house tonight to eat Hericium erinaceus and morels."

Xu Yue looked at the Hericium erinaceus and morels and saw that they were ripe, then he called Tian Yizi.

When Tian Yizi received the call, he naturally knew what Xu Yue meant.

Taste the food, determine pricing, and negotiate the size of the planting.

"Can we eat Hericium erinaceus and morels?"

Zhang Ruoxi said in surprise when she saw what Xu Yue brought back.

"The March-May cycle is almost over!" Xu Yue said, "Let's try it tonight. If it tastes good, we'll expand the scale."

In the evening, Tian Yizi and Huang Liang came together.

Before coming, the two of them went to the greenhouse to take a look.

"It's growing very well. Even if the quality is only as good as those grown artificially, you can still make money." Huang Liang said.

"If that's the case, our boss probably won't plant anymore," Tian Yizi said. "That would also affect the Taoyuan brand."

Huang Liang nodded.

The brand "Taoyuan" has now become famous in the agricultural trade industry.

"Maybe it tastes better than wild ones."

Tian Yizi went on to say that he was obviously very confident in Xu Yue.

how is the taste?

It's much better than the wild ones.

"Absolutely awesome!"

These words were not said by Tian Yizi and Huang Liang, but by Mr. Xu.

"Xiao Yue, I really don't plan to leave!" Old Xu said with a smile.

After eating at Xu Yue's house for several days, he felt much better.

An old Chinese doctor is very sensitive to changes in his body.

Not only is it delicious, it is also good for your health.

No one wants to leave this place.

"Then I won't leave!" Xu Yue said with a smile, "My house can't be short of a bite of food for you. Not to mention eating at my house, even if you stay here, we will be very welcome."

"Forget about living here." Old Xu waved his hand and said, "I've discussed it with your grandfather and we're planning to open a Chinese medicine clinic in the village. I'll live there when the time comes."

Xu Yue couldn't help but look at Xu Chengyang.

"Old Xu and I have some ideas that need to be put into practice," Xu Chengmin said. "The village also needs a clinic."

Xu Yue nodded.

My grandfather has a medical license, so it’s no problem for him to open a clinic.

As for Mr. Xu?
Don't be ridiculous. He has countless disciples in Yanjing, and some of them hold high positions, not to mention him.

"Where is the clinic going to be opened?" Xu Yue asked. "What will it look like?"

"We just decided today, we haven't thought about it yet!" Xu Chengyang said, "Old Xu and I will go to the village tomorrow and make a decision."

Xu Yue nodded, then looked at Tian Yizi and Huang Liang.

"The price of wild Hericium erinaceus is ten times higher," Huang Liang said first. "No matter how big the scale, I'm confident I can sell it."

With Shuxiang Pavilion and Yuelai Hotel as his backers, Huang Liang is full of confidence.

Now, everything in Taoyuan Farm has been taken over by the two families.

Even tens of thousands of eggs were eaten by them every day.

The duck is probably about to lay eggs, right?

Nowadays, there are countless high-end restaurant owners who have approached him, and he has no worries about sales at all.

"How about another 500 mu?" Tian Yizi looked at Xu Yue and said, "There's still a lot of land in the village."

"The yield of Hericium erinaceus is about 1,000 kilograms per mu." Xu Yue said, "500 mu, that's 500,000 kilograms! Is that too much?"

How much does a pound of wild Hericium erinaceus cost nowadays?
Three hundred to five hundred!
Ten times the price, that would be three to five thousand.

Hericium erinaceus can be grown three times a year.

Even if it is two crops, that would be one million jin.

how much is it?
Three to five billion.

The expenditure may not be small, but it will not be too much.

This is too much money!

Of course, the key to making such a profit is that the price is ten times that of wild Hericium erinaceus.

If the price of artificially cultivated Hericium erinaceus is only sold, then you won’t make much profit. Adding the cost risk, you probably won’t make much profit either.

Artificially grown, fresh ones only cost more than ten to twenty yuan per pound.

The price of dried Hericium erinaceus is only between fifty and one hundred, and it depends on the quality.

Using farming techniques to grow crops, you can make so much money now?

"Don't we have morels?" Tian Yizi asked, "How about half as much?"

Morels are undoubtedly more expensive.

Fresh wild morels cost between sixty and one hundred and twenty.

If you do it, it's between six hundred and twelve hundred.

If the price is ten times, even if we take the lowest value, it would be six thousand per kilogram.

However, the yield per mu is much lower than that of Hericium erinaceus.

But overall, it's probably about the same.

"Okay!" Xu Yue said, "Then plant some! Tomorrow, ask how many people in the village want to come back. If there aren't enough people, we can recruit from other villages."

Technically, Xu Yue has already touched his head, so it's not difficult.

He really wouldn't mind growing a few more.

The cost is not high and he can afford the loss.

He didn't think he would accompany her either.

Renting 500 acres of land to grow medicinal herbs is not enough for all the villagers.

It is also said that they now have 500 acres of greenhouses to grow Hericium erinaceus and morels.

There is definitely a shortage of people.

Recruit back all the people who are working away from home.

However, Xu Yue doesn't have to worry.

These things were handled by Tian Yizi.

But Xu Yue is also very busy.
