Chapter 693 Handicraft Processing Factory?

Chapter 693 Handicraft Processing Factory?

Chen Xiuqing just smiled and didn't say a word.

Seeing his reaction like this, several people lost interest in teasing him.

Passing through the forest farm, when approaching Meizigou, I heard a loud rattling sound from the road ahead.

A few people reined in the reins and stopped by the side of the road. After a while, dense geese swayed along the road, flicked their tails, and followed the leader Feng Dezhu along the road in a funny posture.

They are going to graze wild geese!

"Captain Yan, where are you going to release it?" Zhang Shaofeng asked with a smile.

Since he participated in the construction and management of the farm, and since last year, every time he went to graze, Feng Dezhu led the way to prevent the wild geese from flying around. Fewer and fewer people called him snotty, and his nickname gradually became The leader of the wild goose.

Feng Dezhu didn't feel disgusted by this, but found it very interesting.

"Go to Erdaogou today. The aquatic plants there are very good. They can be kept for several days. The place is wide and easy to eat." Feng Dezhu raised the long stick he was dragging in his hand, and put a few fluttering feathers under the quilt. The clipped wings wanted to stop the geese who were ahead, and said with a smile.

Lu Lu smiled at him: "Brother Feng worked hard!"

Feng Dezhu nodded, and continued to lead the geese along the way.

On both sides of the road, Zhou Fangjing and his wife also greeted each other with long sticks to prevent wild geese from getting into the forest.

Lu Lu greeted them one by one, and watched the long procession of wild geese passing by in a grand manner. At the end were Zhou Cuifen and Lei Meng riding an Oroqen horse.

"Why are you here?"

When Lei Meng saw Lu Lu and the others, he stopped happily: "I thought you would have to rest for two days before coming to the farm."

“Originally we were planning to rest for two more days, but we would be remiss if we didn’t go back to the farm as soon as possible after returning home.

I took a look at the bees in my house and thought it was time to shake the honey. This matter should be done sooner rather than later, so I came here, and I want to organize everyone to harvest honey today! "

Lu Lu looked at Zhou Cuifen, then at Lei Meng: "Are you going to go wild geese too?"

"No, the wild geese and the four of them can greet each other. I'm going to the field to see the growth of corn and soybeans and the condition of the drainage ditches this year. It's the rainy season, just in case..."

"That's just right, let's go and have a look, we have to go anyway!"

Lu Lu immediately turned his horse's head and followed them. After parting at the fork ahead, seeing no one around, Lu Lu handed over the cloth bag he had brought to Lei Meng.

"what's that……"

Lei Meng took it over and opened it for a look. Seeing the yellow gold ingots inside, he was stunned: "Why are there so many?"

"This is your share, hide it when you go back, and don't talk nonsense."

"I'm taking advantage of you."

"What are you talking about, the farm is not a problem? It's okay, put it away, don't talk nonsense, we are not polite to you, why are you polite to us?"

Raymond nodded, and tied the cloth bag to the saddle.

A group of people went all the way to the field to see the crops planted, and then went to the grassland where the Oroqen horse was guarded by Zhao Tuanqing, passed through the mountains and forests, went to the Feilong farm, the forest frog farm, and the sika deer farm. Good, and by the way, the manpower was summoned and brought together to the black bee farm.

Under the help of several people, the honey shake started.

For the next ten days, most of the energy of the group was devoted to shaking honey. After shaking the bee farm in Meizigou, they rushed to the bee farm guarded by Tuo Dezhang, a veteran of Linxi Village, to pick up the bee farm. The next step is Lu Lu's place, and finally to the lilac flower farm maintained by the young couple Meng Zhaohua and Pu Guiying.

It's not the first time to harvest honey, not only Lu Lu can do it, but Zhang Shaofeng, Liang Kangbo and Zhao Yongke can also do it.

Things are proceeding in an orderly manner, and the speed has also been greatly improved.

Taking honey is simple, but the most troublesome thing is the problem of bee colony stealing after taking honey.

There are Meng Zhaohua and Pu Guiying in Lilac Flower Bee Farm, don't worry, they have already done it very skillfully.There is Lei Meng in the bee farm in Meizigou, and he also knows how to operate it.

The more troublesome thing was the bee farm in Linxi Village. Lu Lu personally led Zhao Yongke to take care of it, while the others were busy with honey filtration.

Until three days later, the bee farm is stable and the honey filtration is completed.

On average, a group of bees produces about 360 catties of honey. There are [-] ​​five groups of bees in three bee farms. Even though the output is slightly lower than last year, the price of honey has risen slightly, and the income is still considerable.

Lu Lu personally drove the car to deliver the honey to the purchasing station. He said that the honey from the three bee farms was 840 catties, which was a little more than expected, and he got a total of 800 yuan.

The honey harvested for the first time was also quite a lot. Lu Lu saw the number Lei Meng marked on the public notice board next to the deer farm, and got [-].

This is a very gratifying result. Two times of harvesting honey, the three bee farms alone earned more than 9000 yuan.

And the more than 60 colonies of bees that Lu Lu raised in Caodianzi and under the care of Chen Xiuyu had even better results, and his own money was [-] taels.

The honey was sold out in the morning, and the few people were overjoyed, but they also breathed a sigh of relief. There is nothing to do on the farm for the time being, and they can take a good rest for a few days.

Lu Lu spent a few days with Chen Xiuyu and the child at home.

Unexpectedly, with Lu Lu leading the child, Chen Xiuyu, who was relaxed, was like a runaway wild horse, busy with Wang Yan and the others going into the mountains every day to pick mushrooms and run around.It's rare to relax, Lu Lu let her do what she wanted to do according to her temperament, and relax for a few days.

Therefore, leading the baby became Lu Lu's full-time job.

After getting acquainted with Lu Lu thoroughly, the little guy became quite clingy, always opening his hands to hug and hold them high.

As if it was such an exciting thing for Lu Lu to throw him high, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky every now and then.

Lu Lu was entangled enough, and finally realized the hard work of raising a baby.

Fortunately, there are still Yuanbao and others who have raised their spirits during this period of time.

The little guy wearing crotch trousers has learned to walk since he learned to walk. As soon as he gets out of the walker and accidentally goes out of the yard, he just keeps crawling around in the meadow. Yuanbao and the others are always used to following behind, twice, After getting covered in mud, Yuan Bao dragged him back by biting his back collar.

Another time, Lu Lu saw the little guy was tired from playing on the grass in Caodianzi, and fell asleep on the grass with the ingot, and several dogs kept guarding him.

Lu Lu is actually very indulgent when it comes to bringing up babies. He always feels that it is better for boys to be naughty and mischievous.

Moreover, there are many things that he has to experience for himself before he knows the consequences.

For example, the little guy wandered into the bee farm and tried to squeeze the black bees that were busy going in and out of the hive door. His little hand was swollen like a steamed bun after being stung. Since then, he will not easily break into the bee farm.

The three lynxes also wander around the meadow every day. They are not as warm-hearted as the dogs. They are more busy searching for intruding mice or snakes in the meadow. Occasionally they also climb trees, trying to hunt them down Greyhound.

The biggest advantage is that there are almost no mice in the meadow, which saves a lot of trouble.

During these five or six days, while raising the baby, he also found the mine bees around his bee farm.

Without management and protection for a long time, many of these mine hives have become very large.

For the ones that can be picked, Lu Lu directly gets the adult bees to make wine, and the bee pupae are used for frying, and the unfinished ones can be stored.As for the ones that are particularly tall and not easy to get, he tied cotton balls dipped in liquid medicine with twine and tied them to the thin waist of the mine bees that came to the bee farm to catch bees, and let them bring them back to the hive for extermination.

After resting, Lu Lu stopped Chen Xiuyu in the morning who was about to enter the mountain with a basket and a slingshot, and asked her to go to the fair together.

After buying some things he needed for his family, he also bought some canned food and pastries, and went to Kong Siren's house on purpose.

Uncle Kong was wearing reading glasses in the yard, carefully carving the piece of elm wood that Lu Lu sent. The carving knife in his hand traveled along the lines aimed at the wood, shoveling off thin pieces of sawdust.

Same as last time, when Lu Lv led Chen Xiuyu and the children to the gate of the courtyard, Uncle Kong was so absorbed that he still didn't notice at all. Fortunately, the gate was open.

Lu Lu made a silent gesture to Chen Xiuyu, then walked over slowly with the child in his arms, watching from the side.

From the outline of the wood, Lu Lu can roughly see that this piece of elm wood, which has been cleaned of rotten parts in the middle, is divided into two sections. Following the grain of the wood, it has been carved out and placed on the table for waxing. It is the lotus in the pavilions and ponds, the other section is being carved, and the half-finished one is a vigorous pine tree among the rocks. The squirrel on the branch seems to be jumping out.

When Chen Xiuyu saw these two things, her face was full of joy, she pointed at the wood carving, and then silently opened her mouth towards Lu Lv.

From the shape of her mouth, Lu Lu could guess that what she said was: so beautiful!

Lu Lu just nodded slightly.

It wasn't until Uncle Kong put down the tools at hand, took a long breath, and went to drink tea from the canned bottle next to him, that he suddenly noticed someone behind him. He was startled, took off his glasses and recognized Lu Lu, and quickly Said: "Oh, when did you come here, why are you silent behind?"

"I just came to see you, seeing that you are so focused, I dare not disturb you!"

As Lu Lu said, he put the can in his hand on the table beside him, and when Chen Xiuyu put the can on the table, he introduced by the way: "This is my daughter-in-law, Xiuyu..."

Kong Siren turned his head to look at the two of them, and said with a smile: "You are both good-looking talents, you are so lucky!" Afterwards, he went back to the room and brought out two chairs, and greeted them, "Please sit down quickly! The old lady is going to the market, I will give them to you." Boil water and make tea."

"Master, don't bother...I came here this time to discuss something with you!" Lu Lu sat down on the chair and held the child in his arms.

"What's the matter? Tell me." Kong Siren also sat down on the chair beside him.

"I just want to ask, do you know anyone else who has such a good craft like you?"

"I know a few, and two of them are my former apprentices... why do you ask this?"

"I have an idea. Look at the lumps of wood that are all over the mountain. If they are rotten on the mountain, they will be rotten. And those stone materials, in your hands, can become very beautiful works of art. I was thinking, can you They are called together, and I want you to take the lead and set up a handicraft processing factory."

"A handicraft processing factory? I'm afraid it's not easy to do this? Can it make money?"

"It should be possible. I just came up with this idea. I'll ask you for help first. If I can get it together, I'll go to the district government to ask, and then I'll go to the import and export foreign trade company in the city to see the situation. Guizi, as well as many foreign countries, have always liked our domestic handicrafts, and if they are rich, they can set up a handicraft processing factory, which can also be exported to earn foreign exchange, and I think this can be done."

Kong Siren thought for a while: "It's a good idea. I'm sure I can find five with good craftsmanship."

"If you can say that your craftsmanship is good, then you must be very capable. Five... that's enough, and I will find a few apprentices to help. I will find time to go to the district government to inquire about the situation, and I will wait until the matter is confirmed. , I will come to discuss with you again, and then consider the matter of building a factory."

"That's fine, you go and ask first, and I'll take the time to write and ask a few old guys I know to see if they are willing to come."

"That's the best way, let's talk about it for the time being, if you are busy, I will leave first, and I will run away for the next two days!"

After Lu Lu finished speaking, he stood up and said goodbye, led Chen Xiuyu away from Kong Siren's house, and returned to the market.

"Brother Lu, you want to set up a handicraft processing factory, is it reliable?" Chen Xiuyu asked with some doubts.

"Do you think Uncle Kong's carvings look good?"

"nice!"

"That's it. These things are quite rare for foreigners and many rich people. They are definitely a profitable business. Besides, the wood on the mountain is a waste if it is rotten... Let's go, I will go to the district government now Just to ask."

Lu Lv led Chen Xiuyu to the district government. When he reached the gate, he handed the child to Chen Xiuyu to hold him. He went into the government compound alone, asked the guard for the district chief's office, and went straight in.

Chen Xiuyu waited outside for more than half an hour before seeing Lu Lv come out, and hurriedly went up to meet him and asked, "How are you, Brother Lv?"

"It's a good thing that kills multiple birds with one stone. Naturally, as soon as the key point is explained, the matter is immediately agreed. Besides, I don't want to see who is responsible." Lu Lu said happily: "Not only supported me to build a processing plant, but also offered to help me. Contact the import and export foreign trade company, and if the matter is done, that is their work performance."

In later generations, handicrafts are quite popular, and there are dozens of factories. Lu Lu is just a step ahead.

Chen Xiuyu looked at Lu Lv's current behavior, and said, "Look at you!" She said so, but her face was full of smiles.

"Okay, since the matter has started, let's go back quickly and call a few of them to discuss it. If they don't want to do it, I will invest and build a factory alone."

Lu Lu enthusiastically dragged Chen Xiuyu back.
