Chapter 244 Half-sized jujube tree

Getting off the car at the entrance of the village, the two little girls were already hugging each other, jumping and laughing.

Seeing that they completely ignored the existence of the adults, Liu Junhao had to lead the couple to find a place to live. He had already introduced it in the car just now. The little girl was called Hao Xia, her father was called Hao Guangjian, and her mother was called Guo Xun.

After arranging the residence, the family of three couldn't wait to visit his yard. Like everyone, after seeing the animals of all sizes in the yard, they left countless photos.

At noon, Liu Junhao wanted to keep them for dinner, but he was called by Professor Zhao, saying that he was considered a guest invited by Tongtong.

After lunch, Zhang's mother went to the next door to chat with Teacher Wang.

As soon as she left, a few little guys in the yard were making a fuss again. They were playing throwing sandbags, and they had just learned from the children in the village these two days.

The game of throwing sandbags is simple and has no special requirements for the venue. Just find a piece of open space and draw a few squares on it. The sandbag is a small pocket sewn with a large piece of cloth on it. Put some sand inside and then sew the bag on it.

Of course, what is more complicated is the seams of several small sandbags. The functions of the shuttlecock are similar to those of shuttlecocks and are all used for kicking. However, it is heavier than shuttlecocks, so children can get better when kicking.

The five people couldn't be grouped, and in the end they discussed letting Wukong make up the numbers. They wanted to say that the monkey was indeed decent when learning things, and every time it was its turn, they grabbed the sandbag and threw it into the grid. However, this guy was too powerful, and most of the time he was at the bottom.

After watching for a while, Liu Junhao felt it was meaningless, so he moved a chair to sit. Outside the yard, Zhang Qian was watching with relish.

The green waves in the ditch were green, and the rippling waves flashed under the sunlight. His legs were siding towards the ferry guardrail, leaning on the chair, holding a thin branch in his mouth, and leisurely enjoying the afternoon sunshine.

A large group of wild ducks quarreled and played in the water, diving into the water from time to time. A few small fish were caught. The ditch was connected to the river, and the fish inside were not caught. Moreover, because of the spring water, fish like to gather in this section. This was just cheaper for the water birds in the yard, and they seemed to never lack food.

Eat full, and the afternoon sun is warmer.

Liu Junhao stared at the water for a while, and soon he wandered around and fell asleep.

I was sleeping in a daze, but I felt my body being pushed hard. I wanted to turn over and continue sleeping, but who knew that a staggered rolled down from the chair.

"Uncle Liu, you are so lazy, you sleep in broad daylight." When you turned your head, you saw Xiao Haoxia pointing at him and giggling.

"It's you, why don't you play?" Liu Junhao wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and then sat firmly on the chair. This girl was not cute at all. She was sitting in a beautiful dream, but was awakened.

"Wukong is making trouble, Tongtong and I are always losing." She pouted and told the reason.

"Uncle Liu, Aunt Zhang wants to swing the swing, she asks you to make one for us."

My wife wants to swing on the swing... She is so big. When did her childlike innocence become so popular? Could it be that Xiao Haoxia faked the imperial edict? He looked at the weird little girl in front of him, and it seemed very likely.

Just as he was thinking, his wife's cry came from the yard, asking him to make a swing. It turned out that a few little guys had played for a while and felt it was boring and wanted to run to the village to find others to play with. Zhang Qian was afraid that no adults would follow them to secretly buy cannons and cause trouble, so she planned to make a swing to divert her sight.

It's nothing to do with making a swing. Just find a rope to tie it on both sides of the chair, and then tie the rope to the branches. She was not going to bother Liu Junhao at first, and wanted to do it by herself. But after tying the chair, she found that she would not be able to go up the tree. After coaxing Wukong to the branches, the guy wrapped the rope around everywhere and was not serious at all.

Helplessly, she ordered Xiao Haoxia to call her husband.

After receiving the order, Liu Junhao moved the chair directly into the house. He looked at the chair that Zhang Qian tied, and suddenly felt a little sweaty. It seemed that his wife would have to strengthen her ability to do things in the future! The chair was only tied two at the bottom, and the backrest on the top was not fixed at all. Fortunately, she was not tied to the branch, otherwise the chair would not be fixed firmly, and something would have to happen later.

These are all lessons. Because of this when he was a child, he fell off the swing a lot.

He took off the rope and tied two slip knots, so that the backrest was fixed to the rope. He glanced at the crooked neem tree, and the bottom branch was close to level, which was just right for a swing. He went to the swing three times and five times to do it. Liu Junhao went up and tried it a few times first, and it felt pretty good.

Before he could finish his life, Tongtong rushed up from the side. Unfortunately, Liu Junhao had to abdicate and let the virtuous go, and let the little girl sit on it.

He had just taken a step back and was about to leave when Tongtong said, "Uncle Liu, push me!"

Sweat, I have to help myself make a swing when I feel good. Whoever messed with me!

After finally waiting for each little guy to sit down, Liu Junhao asked his wife to go up and enjoy her pleasure. He had seen it long ago, and his wife had been eager to try it out just now.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian sat on it and didn't sway it a few times, and the rope was broken.

Fortunately, Liu Junhao tied the swing very low in consideration of the safety of the child, so she didn't have any problems.

"Aunt, you are too heavy. You just got up and broke the rope." While depressed, Ozawa Yu came to add fuel to the fire.

"No, it's obvious that the rope is not strong, your uncle didn't make the swing well." Zhang Qian argued with a slightly red face. It's too embarrassing. It's okay for anyone to go up, why is it his turn to have a problem?

Liu Junhao was also very depressed. How could he blame himself for not doing it well? You were looking for this rope. There were a lot of plastic ropes in the house, but Zhang Qian took an old straw rope based on the principle of waste utilization. This was no problem. If the rope was not strong, the four pieces could bear a weight of one or two hundred kilograms. But they were swinging, and the rope was tied to the rough neem branches for a long time, and the rope head was worn a lot. The child was fine when he sat on it, and when she got up, he immediately exceeded his limit.

In order to make up for the mistake he made, Liu Junhao found a plastic rope as thick as a thumb from the house. Of course, he also learned to be smart this time and specially wrapped a snakeskin bag on the neem tree branch to slow down the friction.

The swing was done again, but Zhang Qian said she was unwilling to try anything. The rope break incident just now hurt her very much.

Just as the phone in the room rang, she walked away on the excuse of answering the phone.

"I've asked you about the jujube tree, and now there is..." Zhao Guangming's voice was on the phone.

"So fast?" Liu Junhao was a little surprised. He just said that there would be a result in two days. Last time Huo Jun came, he fell in love with his dates and was about to sign a contract. Although Liu Junhao did not agree in the end, he was also thinking about it and was preparing to plant some jujube seedlings around the yard in the spring of the next year.

However, when he bought the jujube saplings, he was worried. In the town, he was easy to buy, such as persimmon saplings, pear saplings, plum saplings, etc., but the jujube saplings alone were not sold.

It’s not that people don’t know about business opportunities, but that jujube tree seedlings are too common. Basically, as long as there is a jujube tree in the yard, many jujube tree buds will definitely grow around it.

Therefore, there is no shortage of jujube seedlings. If any family wants to plant another jujube tree, just protect the jujube tree buds in spring and don’t let the cattle and sheep eat them. In one year, a jujube seedling that is more than half a person tall can grow, and it can be transplanted in the next year.

There were a lot of them growing in Liu Junhao's courtyard, but at that time he did not have the intention to plant jujube seedlings, so he let them be gnawed by the red rabbit.

Now when I want to plant it, I don’t have time to go. Although the jujube tree was fruitful back then, the jujube seedlings only bear a few dates every year before they grew up, just like not.

Liu Junhao wanted to get it right in one step and find a half-large jujube tree so that he could guarantee profits back then.

He knew very well that no family had any extra jujube trees. If they wanted to plant, they could only think of the opposite. He explained this problem to Zhao Guangming and asked him to help him save some gods who sold jujube trees.

When he said it, he didn't have much hope. After all, a half-large jujube tree can be eaten with dates, and no one will sell it without any worries.

I never thought that in just a few days, there was news.

"It's really 'Just to say this, his father beats his mother, beats him.' As soon as you finished telling me, someone in the town wanted to renovate the yard and build a building. His backyard was originally deserted, with six or seven jujube trees growing inside, all of which were thick with arms. Although it was smaller than what you asked for, the opportunity was rare..."

After listening to him, Liu Junhao said a few words "good".

"When will you come here? People are planning to dig the foundation before the New Year and start building a house in spring."

"Tomorrow... I'll find a car to go there tomorrow morning." Liu Junhao thought about it and decided to decide whether to do this as soon as possible or not as late as possible. If it is too late, it will easily cause changes.

"By the way, I asked you the price. Each plant costs thirty yuan. What do you think of the price?" At the end, Zhao Guangming added another sentence.

"The price is not expensive, yes." This price is much lower than his psychological price. I originally thought that no one would sell a plant for fifty yuan. Of course, the reason for selling it is that the jujube tree was in the way, so I wanted to cut it off and burn it. Now that someone buys it, they are naturally happy. It's a lot of money to sell it, but it's not worth a penny.

"Has our business of buying jujube trees been done?" Zhang Qian had been sitting next to her and listening. Now she saw that he hung up the phone, she asked.

"A perfect solution, I can't stop my luck when it comes." Liu Junhao told the story with a little excitement.

"That thick jujube tree is not light, how can we get it back then?" Zhang Qian asked back.

"This matter is easy to deal with. I will use Liu Qiyong's four-wheeler. I will call a few people and I can get it back in the morning. You can cook breakfast at noon tomorrow, stir-fry a few more hard dishes, and please help me when I come back." After he finished speaking, he did not delay at home, so he just put two boxes of cigarettes in the village to find someone.

Things should be made early, otherwise people may visit relatives tomorrow. There is a custom in Daqingshan, which is to recognize their own children's godfathers. According to the older generation, if they recognize their godfathers, children will not be easily sick and will be able to support them.

Liu Junhao used to be quite strange, but now he understands that the medical conditions should be poor at that time, and a child may have something to do if he has a cold or fever, so he wants to find psychological comfort. This is the same as before. The cheaper the child's name is, the easier it is to support him. Among the older generation, there are many nicknames called "goudan" and "dust basket".

At that time, Old Man Liu also wanted Liang Dapao to be his godfather, but before he could tell, he peed the other person's neck, but the matter was not done.

Life is getting better now, but the custom of recognizing godfather can still be preserved. On the 22nd and 23rd of the 12th lunar month are the days when you go to your godfather’s house to visit your relatives.

Liu Qiyong was originally planning to visit relatives tomorrow, but when he heard that he had something to do, he immediately pushed the time back one day.

After breakfast the next day, Liu Junhao set off with a shovel. As soon as he walked to the door, his wife called him to stop him.

"What's the matter?"

"Get the street to fill up the car with gas," Zhang Qian reminded him worriedly.

"I know." Even if she didn't say it, Liu Junhao was ready to do this. He couldn't help but make money, although the amount of travel costs was not much.

After a while, several people carried large saws and their heads came over.

The big saw prune the branches, and the jujube tree only keeps the main trunk, otherwise it will not be placed on the car. The head is mainly used to deal with the roots of the tree. "How tall is the tree and how deep is the roots?" It takes a lot of effort to dig the roots of the tree later.

When he got on the street, Liu Junhao got out of the car and filled the four-wheeled wheels. When he arrived at Zhao Guangming's house, the boy also waited at the door with a shovel in his arms early, looking at the posture and preparing to help.

"Can you make a shovel?" After Liu Junhao handed the cigarette, he pounded his shoulder with a smile.

"Sun, don't underestimate people. With my strength, carrying two bags of 100 kilograms of wheat on my shoulders is as if nothing is wrong." Zhao Guangming said shamelessly.

"You brag" Liu Junhao certainly wouldn't believe that this kid is usually pampered and has never put in hard work. It would probably be difficult to get him to carry a bag of wheat.

"Why, don't believe it, let's try it later." He really had a little unwilling idea.

"No need to compare, you are definitely not as good as Xiao Hao. This kid is like a calf," Liu Laosan took over the conversation later. He had a deep understanding of Liu Junhao's strength and had also made a bet competition.

"Really?" Zhao Guangming turned his head and looked at him in confusion and asked, "Didn't he not have farming? He just rests at home all day."

"He is a freak," Liu Qiyong also smiled.

When they arrived at the location, Zhao Guangming realized what the freak meant. He saw that he dug up the subway shovel and didn't stop. As soon as they started, Liu Junhao had already used his head to dig the roots of the tree.

"I said Xiao Hao, can you live by digging the roots of the tree in this way?" Liu Laosan asked with some concern when he saw that he had dug the roots of the tree in a short while.

"It's okay. I asked Professor Zhao before coming. He said that the water does not evaporate in winter, and plants consume very little nutrients. Just dig the roots like this." He didn't have such confidence, so it was naturally brought by the stone lock. When he went back, watered more spring water, and the jujube tree would definitely survive.

"It's fine if it's okay." When Liu Laosan heard the expert's statement, he felt relieved.

Digging the roots and sawing the branches, this doesn't seem to be much work, but it took most of the time to explore it.
