Natural Disaster: My Portable Farm in the End of the World

Liang Youfa's vegetable greenhouse is located in the vegetable planting base of Hexi Village on the outskirts of the city.

It is less than ten kilometers away from Biliu Community.

Hexi Village was originally a small village with only about 60 households. Most of the capable families in the village moved to Dancheng City. There were few young people and mostly the elderly and left-behind children.

Later, because of the city's poverty alleviation plan, the government came forward to implement household assistance.

Based on the actual situation in Hexi Village, this vegetable planting base was established to be responsible for the supply of vegetables and fruits to Dancheng.

The economic benefits were immediate, attracting a large number of young people to return to the village to start their own businesses.

There are now more than 100 households in Hexi Village, and almost every household grows vegetables in greenhouses.

Liang Youfa's three greenhouses are located in the southwest corner of the village. Two large greenhouses sandwiched the greenhouse, and three brick houses were built in the gap.

As soon as Xiang Chi and Xu Ge entered the house, their attention was attracted by the entire wall of surveillance footage.

Through Lao Liang's introduction, the two learned that these three vegetable greenhouses are not only soilless cultivation, but also equipped with intelligent greenhouse environmental monitoring systems.

Most traditional growers heat, water, ventilate, etc. their greenhouses based on feeling and experience.

People heat up when they feel cold, water when they feel dry, and ventilate when they feel stuffy. This has no scientific basis and will have a certain impact on the yield and quality of crops.

An intelligent monitoring system is installed, which can monitor and collect parameters such as soil moisture, soil temperature, air temperature, air humidity, light intensity, plant nutrient content, etc. through various types of sensors.

Then make real-time intelligent decisions based on the growth needs of crops, and automatically turn on or off designated environmental adjustment equipment.

Through the deployment and implementation of intelligent monitoring systems, not only can crops be protected from the influence of external climate, resulting in better quality and higher yields, but it can also greatly reduce workload and save labor and management costs.

Lao Liang led Xiang Chi and Xu Ge around every vegetable greenhouse.

Looking at the prosperous greenhouse, Liang Youfa was very proud.

Lao Liang: "How about it, Xiao Xu, are these greenhouses of mine pretty good? They cost me a lot of effort at the beginning."

"Don't look at the large initial investment. In the future, except for the cost of nutrient solution and seedling substrate, it will basically be pure income. It is a guaranteed profit-making business. Alas, if it were not for my son, I would really not be willing to sell them. .”

Xu Ge nodded in agreement.

Xu Ge: "It's really good. I can see that you have put a lot of effort into it, Brother Liang. The price is the price we agreed on before, but in terms of time, I have to ask Brother Liang to be more lenient. After all, it is not a small amount."

After Liang Youfa heard this, he smiled and said:

"Hey, this is all a trivial matter, I'm not in a hurry."

Xiang Chi followed the two of them, looking at the prosperous scene in the greenhouse. He took a deep breath and smelled the fresh smell of vegetables. He felt excited and wanted to sign a contract with Lao Liang right away.

Last night, Xiang Chi borrowed 100,000 yuan from Xue Can and Han Dongdong, and Xu Ge also borrowed 100,000 yuan from his buddy Wu Zhiyuan.

The two of them pooled together a deposit of 200,000 and paid it to Lao Liang.

Lao Liang was a happy man. In the end, he not only agreed to give Xu Ge a month to collect the final payment, but also thoughtfully gave Xu Ge the contact information of the dealer.

He also said that if they have any questions about the greenhouse in the future, they can call him at any time for consultation.

It was almost noon when the three of them came out of the shed. Lao Liang originally wanted to entertain Xiang Chi and Xu Ge at Songlinxuan, but Xiang Chi quickly waved his hand and said that there was no need to spend so much money.

Xiang Chi: "Brother Liang, don't be so troublesome. Let's just eat something simple here, using local ingredients. The food in this greenhouse looks delicious. Let Xu Ge and I try it!"

Lao Liang saw that the two of them were serious about what they said and didn't hesitate.

Lao Liang: "Hahaha, okay, okay, there are fish and ribs delivered yesterday in the kitchen. Let's go pick some vegetables in the greenhouse. The vinegar-braised cabbage I make is amazing. Let me show you my skills today!"

After that, he turned around and led Xiang Chi and Xu Ge into the house.

After eating, Xiang Chi and Xu Ge drove directly to Xu's father and Xu's mother's house.

Xu's father and Xu's mother have been away from home recently, and the old couple went to Suzhou and Hangzhou to travel again.

Xu Ge took out the key, opened the door, and started taking photos of each room as requested by the agent.

After sending the photos he took to the agency, Xu Ge sat on the sofa in the living room and sighed.

Seeing this, Xiang Chi walked over and rested his head on Xu Ge's shoulder.

Xiang Chi: "Husband, what's wrong? Are you reluctant to part with it? Otherwise, let's not sell it. Then think of other ways."

Looking at Xu Ge who looked reluctant to leave, Xiang Chi said softly.

Xu Ge held Xiang Chi in his arms.

Xu Ge: "You must be reluctant to let go, but you still have to sell it. I'm fine, let me take a moment."

Xu Ge looked around and couldn't help but recall scenes from his childhood.

The family of three has lived here since he was born, and this house has witnessed his childhood, boyhood and youth. It carries too many memories for their family.

Looking at the rocking chair by the window, if he looked carefully, he could still find a few scratches, which he had made naughtyly with a knife when he was a child.

When I walked into the study room, I saw my parents bending over to correct homework late at night.

Walking into his bedroom again, the pen holder on the desk was filled with gel pens. Sitting on the bed, he seemed to see himself writing furiously when he was studying.

Every room is full of memories.

After silently feeling sad for a while, Xu Ge came to his senses and found that Xiang Chi was cleaning the room. At this moment, he took out a clean bedding from the closet and spread it in his bedroom.

Xiang Chi looked at the confused Xu Ge, smiled slightly, and said:

"Let's just stay here for the next few days! In case there is a house-sitter in the next few days, it will save us running around again. We can stay here until our parents come back and then go home."

Xu Ge was very moved.

Xu Ge: "Okay, then we won't go back today."

Because Xu's father and Xu's mother were not at home, the refrigerator was empty.

The two of them did not choose to take something out from the space to eat. Instead, they walked hand in hand to the nearby vegetable market and bought some meat and vegetables.

It is called the euphemistic name and feels the warm breath of life.

In the afternoon, Xiang Chi and Xu Ge entered the space and worked hard all afternoon to finally finish harvesting today's ripe vegetables and grains.

After coming out of the space, Xu Ge went to wash some grapes and strawberries.

After taking a shower, the two of them leaned against the bedside, eating fruit and looking through an old photo album together.

Although Xu's mother had shown these photos to Xiang Chi before they got married, at this moment, she was still listening carefully to Xu Ge telling the stories behind these photos, pointing to a certain photo and asking questions from time to time.

The two talked softly, and occasionally, there were a few laughs.

The moon outside the window seemed to be infected by this tender scene and became hazy.
