You still need to apply some farmyard manure. That

fertilizer. Growing this long. Hmm, dig it with a stone. Digging this deep. Mm-hmm. Alright, alright, dig away. Are you digging by yourself? Or with a machine? This one, you know, most of it is done by hand. Mostly by hand. Dug by hand. Mm-hmm, is it ripe when dug up to here? This one isn't ripe yet. Come on, this one. Wow. I think the scenery here is absolutely amazing. I originally thought about watermelons. Maybe the mountaintop wouldn't be that interesting. But when I came here, I was surprised. First, there are really a ton of watermelons. Second, I

got to see such beautiful scenery. I feel it's totally worth it. Another thing that surprised me was He dug it all by hand Yes, so it takes him a month just to sow the seeds Look, he has to plant each seedling one by one Just think about how difficult it all is Look at how big the sky is here Haha, he is right on this mountaintop And then he grew up here Yes, and look how beautiful the scenery is here Only in such an environment can such good melons grow Alright, let's continue picking watermelons Okay, let's start Let's learn how to pick watermelons We

Boss, really? Watch me, wow Wow, it's gone. Bees can pollinate. Do watermelons have flowers? There are male and female flowers. It all depends on the male and female flowers for bees to

pollinate. Oh, the pollination is still happening. That one is pollinated. Yeah, only then can the watermelon grow big. So it’s basically like... There’s actually a natural cycle here. Right, right, right. Good, right? Yeah. Hey, be careful with that watermelon over there. We’ve just picked a few watermelons here.

specially like this. Our countryside also has mountains and rivers. You can also find a place to swim casually. You can swim. That's right, yes. But they didn't set it up specially like this. Over here, the local villagers, they prepare these tables and chairs, and things for playing in the water. This table is quite big. Wow, this table is really big. And then, some of them, are not bad. They do barbecue, but, barbecue, I personally think, it can actually have a bit of an impact on the environment. Some do, but these things, isn't that right? Yeah.

Because in China, I think it's okay. Still need to be a bit careful. For example, if you're going to have a barbecue you take your own trash with you Yeah, basically everyone takes their own trash Let me close the door Basically they take their own trash and then there's But still, you need to be careful Right, right, right, a lot of times people just throw it around carelessly That kind of situation also happens Yeah, it does happen It's impossible for it to never happen It does happen But most people still take their own trash Right, right, right, but

there are also those who don't Yeah, there are those who don't take it and just throw it around To be honest There are always some people like that Hahaha That's amazing This This is the drinks we brought This goes in the water And this is the fruit we brought In the river, you can play in the water and eat fruit at the same time And you can also drink your drinks Hahaha This watermelon is the one we just picked from the mountain And their family has a large patch of watermelons on the mountain You can buy watermelons directly from their place Then play
