Chapter 521 Fat Zhuang
Zhou Guo smiled proudly and said, "Of course I used the small flower mushroom as the seed. Although I didn't grow the sheep mushroom, I did grow the small flower mushroom. I planted it in the spring, and now many small flowers have sprouted. I'll take you to see it."
The small flower mushrooms were the easiest for her to grow. Even with the culture medium, she only tried twice before she succeeded.
She knew how to grow this thing before she went to middle school. She often followed her grandfather into the mountains and worked in the fields. She grew it a lot, and tried all kinds of ways, including growing it in greenhouses, on logs, and by chopping flowers. She was most familiar with this one.
The old man shook his head. "I won't look at it anymore. You should take me to see your compost piles. The women and children are not here. I guess they are just fermenting compost."
Zhou Guo opened his eyes slightly. "I remember I never told you that my compost pile had fermented. How did you know? I was thinking of giving you a surprise!"
The old man said, "What's the surprise? You should tell your mother and the others quickly. Don't be too surprised. If you faint, you will suffer. With two huge mountains and four restaurants in four prefectures, can they accommodate all your food?"
Zhou Guo said: "I didn't say I would only send them to a few families. I have also bought shops in several cities. It would be fine if I sell them in the shops myself. After a year, I can sell more."
"Matsutake, didn't you sign the documents with them and only sell to them?" The old man was a little surprised.
Zhou Guo said, "Yes, but we can't grow pine mushrooms. They are only available in one month a year. It's reasonable to sell them to a few of them. They can also accept all my goods. They can have as much as they want. But if I grow all the sheep mushrooms and flower mushrooms, they will be all over the mountains and fields. I can harvest two or three crops. Can they still want so much? Otherwise, I will have nothing to sell. This won't work. I can't do business at a loss. Even if I can't sell to other restaurants, I can sell to those small restaurants, flower houses, and inns. I'm not that competitive with them."
Anyway, all eggs cannot be put in one basket, and this business cannot be tied to one person. If someone else takes advantage of her or the company goes bankrupt, won't she also suffer?
She is not a slave in his family and she has to share his sufferings.
After visiting the flower mushroom base which was still under construction, the two went to see the farm where compost was fermenting at the foot of the mountain.
Rows and piles of large fertilizer piles stood in the village. The village was still under construction, and there were already no less than a hundred fertilizer piles. Women and children went up the mountain one by one to dig up dead branches and leaves, green grass and hay, and even various kinds of inedible mushrooms, and brought them into the village in baskets.
The old man frowned, "You only have a few plots of land, why do you need so much fertilizer? Even if you add the fungi from the mountain, it won't be that much. Are you going to build a circle around the foot of the mountain?"
Zhou Guo smiled mysteriously, "Master, I can't tell you this for now. My fat will be very useful. You will know when the time comes."
Seeing her like this, the old man said with a smile: "Why can't you tell me yet? Are you going to give me another surprise? Why? Can all this fat of yours be turned into money and sold?"
Zhou Guo's mouth froze.
The old man paused as he stroked his beard, thinking. He looked at her, then at the compost piles, then at her again. He felt incredible. Very incredible. "You, you want to sell these compost piles?"
Zhou Guo nodded, "That's right, Master. I will build the largest composting workshop in the north. I will let those who are short of fertilizer come to me to buy it. One day in the future, I will build composting farms in various places and spread my fertilizer on every piece of land in the world."
It's so proud to say.
But the old man said expressionlessly: "How can you expect those who can't even get enough food to buy your fat? What can they use to buy it?"
Zhou Guo said: "I really can't tell you this. You have already found out all my plans. How can I give you a surprise? From now on, you should stay at home and wait for your retirement. I will earn a lot of money for you. I will definitely make you worry-free for the rest of your life. You can have whatever you want!"
The old man's mouth unconsciously raised up, but halfway through, he froze, "I am so old, but I still have to open the way for you to transport goods. It's always nice words, but when have I ever enjoyed a peaceful life?"
Zhou Guo smiled and said, "Aren't you enjoying your leisure time now? I told you to grow vegetables, raise flowers and feed fish at home, and chat with the old men and women at the entrance of the village when you have nothing to do, but you didn't listen. You came to the mountains because you felt bored. Now that you are here, don't leave. Please help me look after this farm. It won't work if no one is watching over it."
The old man glared, "You want me to go see a group of women?"
"No." Zhou Guo pointed at the group of people, "It's not just women, there are a lot of children in there, big and small, boys and girls. Besides, you are so old, what are you afraid of? They won't eat you. Just watch them for a few days. After half a month, they will learn how to do it themselves and you won't have to watch them anymore."
The old man said, "But I don't know how to make compost. What do you want me to watch?"
Zhou Guo said, "Why not? You came to see them when they were fermenting compost, that's enough. They don't know anything, they are worse than you. Master, please help me. When this is over, I will go to Shopkeeper Yang and buy you ten jars of Lihuabai. Is that okay?"
When the old man heard the phrase "Lihuabai", his feet became uncontrollable. Shopkeeper Yang had a lot of good wine, but it was too expensive!
……
Zhou Su and the others ran wildly all over the mountains, following Zhou Guo from time to time, but spent most of their time following Wu Jiang and the others, watching the fun and working along the way.
The Li family members were bored staying at home.
Since there was no one to talk to all day, I might as well go to the mountains. There was nothing to do at home anyway.
This was a big deal. Zhuangzi was stunned to see Zhou Guo and the others coming to the base which was still under construction. They had only been here when Wu Jiang and the others were building the house, but hadn't been here since then. Has this place become like this now?
What is particularly surprising is the rows of houses and compost piles at the foot of the mountain.
Zhou Xing said: "Guoguo, you want them to ferment manure? Can they do it? If you can't ferment it, how can they do it?"
Zhou Guo said: "Mom, sister, I forgot to tell you that my compost pile is fermented!!"
Everyone was silent.
Li said, "What are you kidding me about? How can that thing work? It takes months or half a year to ferment manure. How can you ferment manure in just over a month?"
Zhou Xing didn't believe it either. "Yeah, the grass is still green. Can it be used as fertilizer?"
Zhou Guo laughed and said, "Why would I lie to you? I didn't make such a big scene and built so many manors? Just for you to see? Are you crazy? Do you have too much money to spend?"
silence.
