Chapter 75 Farm development plan!
After the crow flew away, Xu Yang rode away on his motorcycle.

Today’s live broadcast is over, it’s time to go back and eat.

The live broadcast time was not short, and I earned more than 2 popularity points, which can be accumulated for advanced lottery draws.

The motorcycle reward is really good.

It has sufficient horsepower, a stable body, good shock absorption, and is very comfortable to ride.

After the live broadcast was closed, Xu Yang put the drone into his backpack and went to the fruit wholesale market again.

He has a relative here, and Xu Yang talked to him, on the one hand to discuss the future sales of blueberries, and on the other hand to understand the current fruit market conditions.

See what's better to plant.

His farm is too small.

Any larger farm will have at least five or six greenhouses growing a variety of fruits.

In fact, it is quite difficult to grow crops in a greenhouse. It requires high investment, high risk, and a lot of work.

There is a saying here: "If you want to get poor quickly, grow vegetables in a greenhouse."

A good greenhouse would cost 200,000 yuan to build. The greenhouse that Xu Yang invested in cost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. He also wanted to reinforce it for fear that it would collapse due to heavy snow in winter.

Another issue is working. Working in the greenhouse is very sunny, hot, and humid, which makes it easy to get rheumatism.

Of course, the reason why so many people still do this despite the hard work is because greenhouses are really profitable.

Xu Yang estimated that based on the market price, the blueberries in his greenhouse could be sold for around 15 yuan per acre.

The greenhouse is 100 meters long, 13 meters wide and 7 meters high, with an area of ​​approximately 2 mu of arable land.

If you sell 30 units a year and deduct the cost of 10 units, you can make about 20 units.

As long as the blueberries can grow normally.

Xu Yang went to the wholesale market, found his relatives, brought a bottle of wine, some cooked food and cold dishes, and then sat together to talk about the market.

"Strawberries are not good. There are too many people growing them. There are several greenhouses together, and they set up plantations and advertise for people to come in and pick their own."

"Not only strawberries, but also dragon fruit and small tomatoes."

"This is a greenhouse built specifically for picking, earning money from individual customers. It's busy when the season arrives."

"You have your own small farm, so I suggest you don't plant these common ones."

"Blueberries are good. You can explore the channels. If the channels are good, they will sell well. It would be even better if you can establish fixed channels."

"But your production is a bit small, so the big fruit merchants may not be interested in it."

Xu Yang's relative is called Liu Jianguo, who is in his forties and is a distant cousin.

Liu Jianguo has been engaged in fruit wholesale. Although his business is not particularly large over the years, it is stable.

After working in this industry for so many years, he must know a lot about it.

"I am thinking of exploring channels, and when the time is right, I will take some samples and look for people to go."

"If sales are good, we will increase investment in the second year."

"I also thought about growing seedlings by cuttings, growing tens of thousands of seedlings in a greenhouse and selling them, but I really don't have that much energy."

"I don't plan to run a plantation. My farm is closed and I don't do tourism business."

"Just find out what crops have higher returns."

Xu Yang ate a few peanuts and asked.

"It feels like everything is the same now. Every year so many people build greenhouses, but only a few succeed."

"If you want to be safe, you can grow strawberries and dragon fruit, but the profit is small and the selling price is not high."

"Or you can contract a piece of mountain, do cuttings, and plant apples and pears. That kind of business is profitable."

"You can also grow watermelons, which are out of season. If you seize the right time, you can sell them in winter and earn a good profit."

Liu Jianguo took a sip of wine and told the story.

"Uncle, have you ever heard of Custard Apple?"

At this time, Xu Yang put down his chopsticks and asked Liu Jianguo.

"Sugar apple? We don't have any here."

"But this thing seems to be very popular in the south. I don't know how it's doing here."

Liu Jianguo thought for a moment and said.

The sugar apple, whose scientific name is Annona custardii, is called Annona custardii in Guangxi, and is called Annona custardii or Annona custardii in Guangdong.

The origin is tropical America, such as Mexico and Colombia.

Later it was introduced into China and was planted on a large scale in Taiwan, Guangdong and Guangxi, Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions.

This fruit is very delicious and has a smooth texture, just like lychee.

When Xu Yang started growing crops in a greenhouse, the first thing he thought of was to grow southern fruits in the north.

It means planting fruits from the south in greenhouses in the north.

This saves expensive shipping costs.

The next project that Xu Yang plans to focus on is the sugar apple!

"I just asked casually. It doesn't matter if there is no market."

Xu Yang said with a chuckle. Opening a farm is far from being that simple, and Xu Yang is also a person who likes to use his brain.

No matter what you do, always think and reflect more.

"You have had this idea since you were young, and no one can persuade you. As long as you grow sugar apples, you will definitely get a profit."

“The question is whether you can grow it in your greenhouse.”

"That thing is caused by the heat, it's not that easy to grow."

Liu Jianguo thought about it and said seriously.

There is a lot of knowledge involved in greenhouse cultivation, and different crops have different planting methods.

And the risk is also great. If the crops are infected with any disease, a large area of ​​them will be sick and all the money will be lost.

“It’s because others can’t grow it, but I can grow it, so I can make money.”

"Let me try."

Xu Yang responded lightly, as if he was just saying it casually.

But deep in his eyes there was an unshakable seriousness.

He had actually made up his mind to come to Liu Jianguo just to find out about the market conditions of other fruits.

After dinner, Xu Yang said goodbye to Liu Jianguo and rode away on his bike.

Don't drink while driving, don't drink and drive.

Xu Yang had something to do in the afternoon, so he didn't drink just now, just chatting. They were all relatives, and Liu Jianguo knew that Xu Yang didn't like to drink, so he didn't think it was a big deal.

Xu Yang went all the way back to the farm.

Li Shan is busy in the greenhouse.

It was dusk at this time and the temperature in the greenhouse was slightly lower, so we could go in and work.

In the afternoon, the greenhouse is like a steamer. You will sweat all over as soon as you go in and it is impossible to work.

Xu Yang also went to the greenhouse and started working.

The two checked the condition of the blueberry seedlings and cleared the weeds.

A greenhouse is full of blueberry seedlings, and it takes a lot of effort to pull out the weeds.

But this work must be done; weeds become more difficult to pull out when they grow bigger.

The blueberry seedlings were growing vigorously and there was no sign of decline, which made Xu Yang feel relieved.

After all, greenhouse operations are particularly afraid of crop diseases, which are basically difficult to cure.

"I have to go up the mountain tomorrow. You can stay at the farm and feed the chickens and ducks."

Xu Yang explained to Li Shan.

"Okay, Brother Yang, don't worry, no problem." Li Shan quickly agreed.

"I plan to build a mountain temple in the back mountain. Our farm is close to the mountain, so we can pray for peace."

Xu Yang said.

There is a mountain behind his farm, only about one kilometer away.

Generally speaking, farms are built on open wasteland and are relatively peaceful.

If there are mountains behind, it is easy for wild animals to run towards the farm.

But this place is close to the village and the soil is very good.

Moreover, Xu Yang thought it was great to have a mountain, and he would contract the mountain when he became rich.

"Brother Yang, can I go and worship after it's built?"

Li Shan asked.

"I built a small temple. It's not my own, so anyone can worship there."

"Go if you want."

"The farm is still in its infancy. If the harvest is good, I will increase my investment next year and build a few more greenhouses."

"I'll hire someone when the time comes. Otherwise, it can be scary to be alone sometimes."

Xu Yang asked again.

It's still a bit scary to live alone on a farm. People who are timid may not dare to live here alone.

But the villagers are brave and are not afraid of these.

"It doesn't matter, Brother Yang, I'm fine."

"I'm used to being alone. I think it's good. I can do some work by myself, feed the pigs, etc. It's quiet."

Li Shan said hurriedly.

"Okay, tell me what you want to say."

"It's been a hard day today, and pulling weeds is tiring, so go to bed early."

Xu Yang walked out of the greenhouse, wiped the sweat off his head, and then took Xiao Hei and Yuanbao for a stroll on the farm.

The day ends here.
