Apple saplings retail for 13 yuan a piece, and Li Zhiyuan sells them to Lin Zhensheng for 6 yuan.

This can no longer be described as cheap and cost-effective. It is no different from doing charity. Moreover, Li Zhiyuan told him: five hundred apple saplings are exactly ten acres of land.

Ten acres of land!!!

Lin Zhensheng didn't know how to count before. He really didn't expect there to be so many. He thought he would have to plant a hundred of them in one acre of land, but he didn't expect that he could only plant fifty in one acre of land.

In this case, where should we place this apple orchard?

Lin Zhensheng was sitting on a chair, staring blankly at the fish bobber. He seemed to be in a daze, but in fact he was calculating in his mind.

Both sides of the east road have been occupied by cultivated land, and there is no place to grow apples. Moreover, if the Dongliangjiang flood strikes again and washes away the land, wouldn't all the apple trees be left there on the spot?

The same goes for Beishan. The Beishan duck farm was also washed away last time, unless you go to a place with higher ground.

Then the question arises. There are no roads on high ground, so how do you get a large container of apple saplings up there?

You still have to find a place far away from the river and near the main road.

West Road.

Perfectly meets the above two points.

It's far away from the river, and the last [ice flood] that came ashore didn't reach the birch forest. The location is really good.

However, the road has not been completed yet. It is only half a meter wide, so vehicles pulling saplings cannot get in, but this does not affect it.

Using Lin Zhensheng's existing soil foundation, there should be no problem in paving the road from the territory to the birch forest.

Hmm.

It works.

I just don’t know what the planting cycle is.

Regarding this question, Li Zhiyuan replied: "It takes seven days to mature, and one acre can produce about 500 kilograms, but there will be no fruit in the first week."

Wow~

One acre of land weighs 500 kilograms, so these ten acres of land are five tons!

It only takes two days longer than crops like corn, and the yield can increase three to four times.

So fierce.

Lin Zhensheng couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and was about to move the saplings, but was stopped by Li Zhiyuan.

"Don't be anxious, this job can't be done in a day or two."

Li Zhiyuan held him down with one hand and spoke at a very steady pace with very clear logic. He said sentence by sentence: "And according to my observation, there is no idle person in your territory now. Where can you find someone to work for?"

"So, after my people finish transferring the goods, I will help you pull the saplings directly into the ground. Then, when you have someone free, I will make arrangements to plant apple saplings."

Lin Zhensheng's day, this is really what happened.

The only people he can spare now are the people from the lumber camp, but the number is limited, so it is better to wait for the wheat to mature and plant it together.

Thinking of this, his butt is the most stable.

Time flew by in a hurry. Lin Zhensheng was absent-minded all afternoon, so naturally he didn't catch two fish. Instead, Li Zhiyuan jumped up and picked up the fish, and the fish jumped around.

"Hahaha, let's see how it goes?"

Lin Zhensheng saw his smiling face and couldn't help but sigh: It's rare for you to realize the fun of this activity when you are just sixteen years old.

The two of them walked back to the dock along the river. At this time, they were almost loaded, and a car had returned.

Li Zhiyuan immediately asked people to pull out the saplings.

Lin Zhensheng had already taken the lead and returned to the workbench to start building the West Road.

In the past, it was only made half a meter wide, purely for the purpose of providing access to the lumber camp, but now it is different and it is of great use.

Arriving at the edge of the birch forest, it is 1,500 meters long and 2 meters wide, and is expected to consume 9,000 pieces of soil and foundation.

Lin Zhensheng didn't even look at the inventory and just clicked to confirm.

He knows clearly in his heart that it must be enough.

At this time, the west road and the east road were connected into one, and the territory was used as the dividing point. The overall square was 30 centimeters by 30 centimeters, with a special pattern of brown stone and gray clay intertwined on it, which was beautiful and neat.

meters wide, all the way from the East Liangjiang River to the birch forest.

Lin Zhensheng arrived at the edge of the birch forest early and waited.

From here, on the left side of the road facing the territory, ten acres of apple trees will be planted.

Although the apple orchard will not bear fruit in the first round, it will produce five tons of apples in the second round.

I'm a little excited when I think about it.

Carloads of saplings arrived and were unloaded on the West Road. Their roots were tightly wrapped in white substance and they were all lined up.

Li Zhiyuan also followed over at this time and told Lin Zhensheng: "Just plant it directly into the ground. The film on the roots is for moisturizing. It will automatically degrade into a nutrient solution after being put into the soil. Don't worry about it."

"In addition, there will be a dormant day after the apples are ripe. Take advantage of this opportunity to pick them quickly, otherwise you will not be able to pick them all in one day and the next wave of apples will not come out, which will reduce the production."

After Li Zhiyuan said a few words, he took the people on board the ship. Before leaving, he said: "I will bring you a card next time you come. However, during this period, I am trying. If I find something suitable for you, I will directly

Just swipe your card."

"Okay!"

The big ship left and disappeared along with the sun on the Dongliang River.

……………………

In the next three days, Lin Zhensheng spent time in the apple orchard besides making earth foundations at his workbench.

He took out ten people from the lumberyard to clear the hay on the ground to make room for the apple seedlings.

It took three days of working on ten acres of land before it was almost completed.

His previous plan was to wait until the wheat harvest was finished and plant apple trees, but after his "careful" calculations, this may not be possible.

Because after harvesting the land and then planting apple trees, their harvesting times will overlap, and it is very likely that neither will be able to please them in the end.

So he advanced the planting time.

As for manpower, he asked citizens, and the latter's meaning was simple: "One person per acre is enough for daily maintenance, but planting trees at first is not enough."

There was no other way, so Lin Zhensheng temporarily transferred some people from the farmland, plus people from the lumber camp and the territory itself, to make up a total of fifty people.

The next day, [Fire Dragon Cloud Pillar] countdown [2 days: 21:54:12:].

Lin Zhensheng and his people were planting apple trees in the field. They didn't even return to the field at noon. The ten-acre apple orchard was not finished until the sun went down.

In the evening, good news came from the workbench. The 20,000 pieces of soil foundation have been completed. Except for the 14,000 that have been used, there are still 6,000 in stock, lying quietly in the territory warehouse.

Lin Zhensheng couldn't wait to eat, so he sat down at the workbench and started working.

The soil foundation is laid piece by piece, leaving a road directly to the forest on the virtual sand table.

At this point, the territory has been completely penetrated from east to west, and material transportation has become extremely convenient.

Lin Zhensheng worked non-stop to make the same thing, [Large row of cars = wood * 50] * 4.

At first he didn't want to build it because the cost was very high.

However, with the continued hard work of citizens, a small clearing has been cut out of the original location of the forest, and now the fallen wood can no longer reach the lumberyard by rolling.

They need trucks to move wood.

So Lin Zhensheng made four large platoon cars.

It is 2.8 meters long, 1 meter wide and 1.3 meters high. There is nothing more suitable for transporting wood. From now on, it will be specially used in lumberyards.

It’s been a long time.

It’s upgrading, building walls, building roads, and... I’m so busy that I don’t even have time to rest at the workbench.

Lin Zhensheng thought: If it could talk, it would have scolded it long ago.

Go to bed early today, the corn will be ripe tomorrow.

It’s going to be another busy day.
Chapter completed!
