Chapter 223

When it rings.

Song Xintong stood in the open space in the back mountain forest, watching the mountains and fields filled with big pits, and even the gravel stand by the river also dug a lot of pits.

"Girl, the pit has been dug and it's going to rain." The poplar wiped his sweat and pointed to the pit on the wasteland. "About four or five hundred fruit trees can be planted on 20 mu of wasteland. If there were no big hard stones, there would be many more."

"What about the master of the fruit trees?" Song Xintong has been here for half a year. He hasn't seen anyone yet.

Poplar said: "chatting with the repairman by the river. If the girl wants to see him, I'll call him here."

"Don't worry." Song Xintong looked at the fruit trees on the edge of the small stream in the forest, "what fruit trees are they?"

"Pear, orange, apple, apricot, jujube, fig, loquat, litchi, cherry, hawthorn, walnut." Poplar respectfully said, "a total of one, there are peach trees, I think Taohua village all over the peach trees did not buy, these trees grow two or three years at most on the fruit."

Song Xintong was a little satisfied. After that, this piece of land will be their back garden. It's good to come here to pick what you want.

In fact, she thought that if there were kiwi fruit, mango, lemon, pineapple fruit, it would be good, but it seems that there is no, only common fruit. It seems that I'll go to other places later. If there are these trees, I'll get some back and plant them.

"When will it be planted?" Song Xintong looks at the fruit trees all over the ground. There are eight or nine hundred trees. They can't be planted. It's two or three hundred taels of silver.

"The fruit grower said that when it rains, it can be planted at any time in spring." Said the poplar.

Song Xintong also knew that it was spring to plant trees. He looked up at the blue sky and said, "I don't know when it will rain."

"The old man in the village said that there should be a few thunderstorms in June, and the girl would just wait for a few days." Yang Shu pointed to the half paved bluestone path, "that's Master Liu, coming up."

When Master Liu came to the forest, poplar introduced song Xintong to him: "Master Liu, this is our master."

Because he often basks in the sun, Master Liu looks swarthy. When he smiles, he reveals a pair of teeth blackened by smoke: "good master."

Song Xintong quietly walked two steps to the side, and then recalled with a smile: "I heard that master Liu's family is specialized in selling fruit seedlings?"

Master Liu nodded: "yes, most of the seedlings in Lingnan are bought from my nursery."

"What kind of seedlings do you have in your family?" Song Xintong asked again.

When it comes to fruit seedlings, Master Liu said a lot, "I have all the fruit seedlings you buy here, and there are some other peaches and plums. I have not only seedlings, but also many adult seedlings. Generally, people buy seedlings, and there are few adult seedlings like you."

"But buying adult seedlings is easy to support. As long as it takes root and survives, it will bear fruit in one or two years at most, unlike seedlings that have to wait seven or eight years or more."

"Miss, we bought litchi, cherry, hawthorn and walnut from Master Liu." Yang Shushi said: "Master Liu also sent us some grape seeds and watermelon seeds. When it's time to throw them into the field, we can eat grapes and watermelons next year."

"Thank you, Master Liu." Song Xintong sincerely thanks.

"What's the matter? It's just a little seed. It's nothing for me to send a little seed when you buy so many seedlings." Master Liu rubbed his hands and spat on the ground.

Song Xintong frowned slightly, then turned his head and said to poplar, "Uncle Yang, please take good care of Master Liu and learn this kind of tree raising skills from Master Liu. Otherwise, when Master Liu goes back, we won't be able to do it."

"Girl, don't worry." The poplars rushed down.

Song Xintong said, "I'll go down and have a look. You can accompany Master Liu and then go around."

"Good owner."

Song Xintong went to the house that was already in gaiwa, looked at the spacious and bright chicken house and rabbit house, and nodded with satisfaction.

Every place has a different path into the house. From the bluestone road in the center, it goes directly to the yard, and then goes around to the accommodation area on the other side. It's very convenient. It's not next to the chicken house, and it doesn't smell bad.

The most important thing is that floor heating is done here, just as it is in the workshop. As soon as a fire is burned, the hot air will pass. Even when the snow is heavy in winter, the chickens and ducks will not be afraid of being frozen.

Uncle he, who had been busy delivering bricks and tiles, came over: "Xintong, are you coming to see the house?"

"I'll see how it's done." Song Xintong stood in the shade, "uncle he, dip a little inside, don't bask in it."

Uncle he grinned shyly, "we are not afraid of the sun."

"They're all used to work. They're not afraid of tanning." The master who was in charge of building the house also came over, "master's house, the most tiles will be built in the future. The bluestones on the ground and the roads leading to the small river outside will also be paved. When the carpenter finishes the tables and chairs, he can move in."

"That's great." Song Xintong is very happy. The construction period is ten days faster than she expected.

"Xintong, it's quite remote here. I have to raise some dogs." Uncle he said.

Song Xintong had thought about this problem for a long time, so the wall was built high. When the back was cleaned up, he would go back and keep four or five dogs to see which thief dares to come to them!

"I remember it all. Thank you, uncle he." Looking at the empty patio in the yard, song Xintong thought that two pear trees could be planted here. When the harvest season comes, the pear will be fragrant and golden. It will be very beautiful.

Standing for a while, the poplar came in, "girl, the carpenter has come to measure."

Song Xintong said, "please come in."

The carpenter measured the size of the rabbit house and chicken house, "master, why do you want to make such a small cage? Why don't you circle it all on the ground? No matter how convenient. "

"As for why it's not good to talk to Shifu, just do as I said. First make 500 rabbit cages and 30 chicken cages." Song Xintong repeatedly exhorted, "please do your best to give it to me before June 15, OK?"

"No problem." The master carpenter nodded. This kind of work of making boxes and cages doesn't need much skill. As long as the materials are complete, he and his disciples can make more than one or two hundred pieces a day, and it only takes five days to finish them all.

"Thank you, master." Song Xintong pointed to the wood outside, "is the master sitting here or going home to do it?"

Master carpenter: "the owner has wood here. Let's make it here. We don't have to move around at that time."

"It's a deposit." Poplar gave a deposit of one or two silver to the carpenter.

The carpenter took the silver and put it in his purse. "I'll go back to get the tools today and come to work tomorrow morning."

After waiting for the carpenter to leave, the poplar asked again, "girl, who can manage the chickens and ducks?"

Song Xintong asked, "does Yang Shuke have a good proposal?"

"It's better to buy two people who are good at raising chickens and poultry. It's different from washing sweet potatoes. It's better to do it yourself." Poplar suggested.

Can buy people... Ah! Song Xintong hesitated for a while, "Uncle Yang, look at it."

Poplar: "that slave as soon as possible to pick people in the county."
