What happened in Jiangcheng was out of Yang Yi’s consideration for the time being. He returned to Wudaokou Village and met Murphy who was in the lobby listening to Dong Yuee and Zhou Mengyu discussing the details of the wedding process. He also saw several children in the village. Xixi playing with Baozi.
“Qingzi, where’s Dad?” Yang Yi didn’t bother them. After saying hello, he went back to the yard and asked Yang Qing.
“You and your father-in-law went for a walk in the fields again, and the village chief.” Yang Qing said with a smile as he yokes the old ox on the trailer, which is the crossbar that the ox cart is tied to in front of the yoke. (Note 1)
Listening to Yang Qing, Mo Henian and Yang Chonggui have often been drilling in the fields these two days. Yang Yi, who was just asking casually, became curious. What are these two old men talking about?
Yang Qing used an ox cart to drag a water pump to the fields to water the newly planted seedlings this year, and Yang Yi followed along to see what happened.
At the back of the village, there is an endless field, backed by green mountains and green water, and the scenery is just right. In the distance, Yang Yi saw a group of people standing on the ridge among the green seedlings, pointing at the field.
The leader is Mo Henian. The old man is in high spirits and gestures with his fingers. Yang Chonggui, the village chief Dong Qi and others who are next to him don’t know what they are talking about. The feeling of…
When Yang Yi approached, and knew Mo Henian’s voice quite clearly, he realized that he was introducing Dong Qi about the convenience that agricultural machinery can bring to agricultural production.
“There are more than 600 mu of arable land in the village, right? The land is good, with fertile water and soil, and you can harvest everything you plant, but there are too many people who invest in agricultural production every year. Too little benefit…”
“My farm is about the size of a village, with a small planting area of more than 30 acres, but I only hired five laborers. How can I plant so many fields? Machinery relies on the power of science and technology, although Few people use it, but it can get twice the result with half the effort!”
What Yang Yi didn’t know was that Mo Henian didn’t want to be an agricultural expert for the villagers on a whim, but that Yang Chonggui learned about the modern agricultural situation in the United States from Mo Henian. The more he thought about it, the more he felt This is a good idea for the development of the village.
Yang Chonggui actively built bridges for Dong Qi and encouraged Mo Henian to teach his advanced farming concepts in the United States to the farmers in the village.
Mo Henian’s suggestion really made Dong Qi quite moved, but agricultural machinery is not cheap, and there is not much farmland in each family: “Now it’s a little harder for everyone to farm, but there are still enough manpower. After this machine, the rest of the people don’t work, isn’t it a waste?”
“The manpower freed up from farming can be changed to other things, such as working in the city…” Mo Henian said.
“Working in the city?” Dong Qi frowned, “These dolls don’t read much, so what can they do in the city?”
Wudaokou Village is more closed than the villages in Zhengjia Village, which are close to the county seat due to its geographical location and inconvenient transportation. Most of the young people in the village have been to the county seat at most, and have never been to the big cities far away. It is true that the farm work at home cannot be done, and there are very few people who go out to work.
But it’s not that they don’t have this idea. The young generation of Li Shupo, Mu Changan, and Yang Huan are more eager to live in the city. Like Yang Huan studying in the county seat, he wanted to jump out of this small circle and go to a bigger and more beautiful city.
If there is no Yang Yi, she may also become a generation of factory girls…
Although Li Shupo and Mu Changan haven’t jumped out yet, in their usual chats with Yang Yi, they often ask about new things in the flowery world outside, with a look of longing. It’s just a pity, they don’t know what they can do, they can only be confused in the busy day.
There is a desire to explore, but there is no goal and ability to explore…
Yang Yi heard their conversation and couldn’t help but interjected: “Village Chief, there is a lot of work you can do. If you go to the big cities along the coast, there are many other factories, construction sites, etc. In the market and various small shops, our peasant brothers are working. Although there is indeed no land for us to grow in the city, as long as everyone is willing to learn and work hard, it will not be difficult to find a job! Migrant workers entering the city is a major trend now .”
Yang Yi, a “person of his own” who made a name for himself outside, said his words with more weight. After he finished speaking, several villagers next to him fell into contemplation.
Actually, when Yang Yi came back during Chinese New Year, he also walked into a dead end of thinking. If the road is built, everyone will have a way out.
But it is better to teach a man how to fish than to give him a fish. Now Mo Henian’s remarks have made him suddenly realize his thoughts.
I saw him pause for a while, and then continued: “Of course, not everyone wants to go to the city, we are in the village, and we can do other businesses! As long as the labor force is freed from the fields, we can The mountains and rivers of the mountains and rivers can be used.”
“How to make use of it?” The relatively conservative Dong Qi was more interested in Yang Yi’s idea than driving the younger generation out of the village.
“Several hilltops near our village can be contracted. On the barren hills, we can plant fruit trees or tea trees, which are all cash crops.” Yang Yi said.
At this time, a few villagers in the village also spoke up: “I think this idea is OK, planting tea trees, I heard that some people in Huahe Village made a fortune selling tea.”
“Specifically suitable for planting, I suggest that you can invite experts from the Agricultural Science Institute or Agricultural University to do a field survey to see the pH of the water and soil here, as well as the climate, and what high-value agricultural products are suitable for growing.” Yang Yi said, “Spend some money, and you can take less detours.”
“And it’s not just about planting fruit trees and tea trees, we can also raise chickens and ducks in the mountains and in the orchards, and keep them free-range in the orchards. These free-range chickens can sell for a very high price in the city! And the dung of chickens and ducks can also be used as fertilizer…”
Yang Yi talked freely and seemed to steal Mo Henian’s limelight, but Mo Henian didn’t take it seriously. He and Yang Chonggui looked at Yang Yi with smug eyes, feeling that Yang Yi was supported by the villagers, and they too There is light on the face.
“Isn’t the village planning to build roads now? We won’t worry about selling the things we grow in the future!” a villager said excitedly.
“What about the fields in the village? Who will farm the fields and who will contract the hills?” Dong Qi was still relatively calm, and he asked a key question.
Mo Henian’s experience can finally come in handy, I saw the old man speaking in a Baodao dialect and said: “Everyone in the village can gather their fields, form a company, and hand them over to some people for unified management, mechanized planting, and mechanization. Harvest, earn money, deduct the remuneration for their management, and distribute the rest to each household according to the proportion of the field. As for other people, the energy freed up can be as Xiao Yang said, entering the city or Baoshan can be ~IndoMTL.com~ it’s up to you.”
Yang Yi also said that he could borrow money to buy enough agricultural machinery for the village. Of course, this money is not borrowed but not repaid. Yang Yi cannot always be a philanthropist. It is not good for the villagers to develop the bad habit of relying on Yang Yi for everything. They must learn to be self-reliant.
Part of the income from the village’s land also needs to be repaid in installments. But I believe that at that time, when the villagers’ own income increased and they became richer, they would no longer care about this little money.
“I think the village can also set up a trading company.” Yang Yi added, “Whether it is agricultural products in the fields, fruits and tea grown in the mountains, or people who usually go into the mountains to get some game, if it is called If people come to collect it, the price will definitely be lowered and it will be a big loss. We can set up a trading company by ourselves to sell the products in the village and strive for greater benefits.”
Yang Yi hasn’t explained it very thoroughly, he can actually help them open up sales on the Sahara Online Mall, and directly achieve C2C. However, the time is not yet ripe. It is better to let the villagers learn how to sell, and then take them on the road when online shopping is truly popularized in thousands of households.
Between Mo Henian and Yang Yi, the future of Wudaokou Village gradually took shape.
