Chapter 471 Grandpa, I want a hammock (10,000) Good night(2/2)
live."
Cao Shujie understood that what he said was true.
Continuing to walk west along the highway, Cao Shujie looked over all the land and orchards belonging to Caojiazhuang.
He also saw many people walking hard on the land despite the heavy rain.
For the people in the countryside, land is their roots.
The fruits produced on the land are God's gift to them. If there is no other income, this will be their expenses for the coming year.
Cao Shujie couldn't see them like this, so he shouted to the people in the fields to get out of the fields quickly, and wait until it stopped raining before he could think of another way to see what to do?
What Cao Shujie said is a fact. At this time, no matter where the fruit trees are planted, they are experiencing this scene.
What Cao Shujie is more anxious about at this moment is what is happening to the fruit trees in his orchard?
The harvest is expected to be good in less than a month. A heavy rain at this time may not necessarily be a good thing for the fruit trees in his orchard.
However, the inspection had not been completed at this time. Even though Cao Shujie was very anxious, he did not go to the orchard on the mountain to take a look.
The village party secretary Cao Jianlong called him and asked him to go to the fields to check on the situation.
When Cao Shujie told him that he was already on the ground and looking at this year's harvest, Cao Jianlong was a little confused. He didn't expect Cao Shujie to act so quickly.
Not long after, Cao Jianlong also came to the field wearing a raincoat despite the heavy rain.
When he came to Cao Shujie, the two of them looked at the situation in the fields, and Cao Jianlong had a worried look on his face.
In the current situation, if the rain doesn't stop, the land is likely to be filled with water. Let's look at the drainage ditches that were rebuilt last year. They are now filled with water.
"Shujie, do you think this heavy rain is okay?" Cao Jianlong was a little worried, so he asked Cao Shujie.
After hearing Cao Shujie's affirmative reply, Cao Jianlong breathed a sigh of relief and said to Cao Shujie: "To be honest, Shujie, I was just waiting for what you just said."
When Cao Shujie heard what Cao Jianlong said, he couldn't laugh or cry.
But thinking about Cao Jianlong's trust in him, Cao Shujie felt very complicated.
After returning from the peripheral orchard, Cao Shujie went straight up the mountain along the southern slope. He saw the turbulent rainwater flowing down the repaired mountain road. To be honest, it was a very unwise decision to go up the mountain at this time.
But Cao Shujie was still worried, and he followed the road step by step to the orchard halfway up the mountain.
Standing on the parking platform, Cao Shujie felt relieved.
Cao Shuchao, Zhuang Xuesong and others, who were taking shelter in the hut from the rain, thought they had seen the wrong person when they saw Cao Shujie who had just come up the mountain through the glass on the wall of the hut.
After taking a closer look, they confirmed that it was their boss. The four of them couldn't sit still and hurriedly came out holding umbrellas or wearing raincoats to greet Cao Shujie.
"Boss, it's raining so heavily, why did you come up here?" Zhuang Xuesong asked him.
Cao Shujie took a deep breath, looked at the four people in front of him, and asked: "Stop talking nonsense, how are you doing here? Is there anything unusual?"
Cao Shuchao nodded solemnly: "Boss, this rain is too heavy, and it is likely to affect this year's kiwi and apple production."
"Can anyone enter the orchard?" Cao Shujie asked them.
Cao Shuchao shook his head directly: "We can't get in now."
Hearing what Cao Shuchao said, Cao Shujie was helpless, but he knew that in the face of this power of nature, manpower was sometimes poor.
Despite this, Cao Shujie still walked deeper into the orchard.
Cao Shuchao was worried and followed behind.
Zhuang Xuesong took a look and followed.
The remaining two people did not follow blindly, they were waiting in the hut at the door.
Cao Shujie and the other three came to the depths of the orchard and looked forward. Where there was soil, there were still several large holes in the ground that had not been filled.
Cao Shuchao also pointed to the holes and said that he had stepped in the orchard just now and could not walk through them at all.
The only good thing is that there is no water stored in the mountains, unlike those orchards in the west where some water is stored and cannot be drained out.
The rain didn't stop until around 5pm on the second day.
Cao Shujie never expected that the rain would last for so long. The sky finally cleared up and the dark clouds covering people's heads were blown away.
Cao Shujie then retreated from the orchard on the mountain and returned home first.
"Shujie, how's it going outside? How's it going in the mountains?" Cao Jianguo and Wang Yuelan didn't leave. When they saw their son finally returned home, they both came over to ask.
Cao Shujie did not worry them. He said the situation in the orchard was very good.
"Brother Chao and the other four are on duty in the orchard. I will let them rest after they have been busy for a few days." Cao Shujie said this.
"Hey, who knew it would be okay if it rained so hard?" Cheng Xiaolin asked him.
The expression on Cao Shujie's face was very complicated: "Some of them were affected, and the fruits fell to the ground. These are basically scrapped."
"But most of it is fine."
Hearing her husband say this, Cheng Xiaolin also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Shujie, you can pick up the ones that fell on the ground and feed them to the cows. Don't think too much about the others." Cheng Xiaolin said to him.
Cao Shujie also meant the same thing. He had told Cao Shuchao and others about this before going down the mountain.
Cao Shuchao and the others also agreed to go in and pick out the fallen fruits after they could walk in the fields, crush the selected ones and feed them to the cows.
That night, Cao Shujie did not sleep well. Hearing the sound of wind blowing outside, he was worried that it would happen again in the evening. This was one of the few times when he was so worried that he could not sleep.
I have made n number of preparations, but in fact, in the face of the power of nature, any preparation made in advance is in vain.
…
While Cao Shujie was worried about the heavy rain, something was also happening at the Dafa Fruit Wholesale Market in Quancheng that gave market managers a headache.
Cao Shujie's statement finally reached Quancheng Dafa Fruit Wholesale Market.
At this time, more and more people are criticizing the Dafa Fruit Wholesale Market.
In the eyes of consumers, Dafa Fruit Wholesale Market has gone too far and defends merchants of counterfeit and shoddy fruits. This behavior cannot be forgiven at all.
But some consumers think it’s a bit too strict?
Because of this matter, netizens on the Internet were divided into two sides and quarreled.
But within the Dafa Fruit Wholesale Market, the market's management is having a headache.
No one expected that an ordinary complaint that was not handled in time would trigger a series of subsequent problems.
In the eyes of people at the Dafa Fruit Wholesale Market, Cao Shujie's actions seemed a bit childish, but they had to admit that these seemingly childish actions were very effective.
