What the village chief said makes a lot of sense.

In addition, most of the villagers in Zhu Village are simple and kind, so they all agreed to the village chief's proposal.

"So should we distribute the sweet potatoes to people in the surrounding villages now?"

Zhu Jiu thought for a moment and said, "We can give some of those broken sweet potatoes to the surrounding villages first. Let them eat them first. When the sweet potatoes are ready for breeding next year, we can give them some more and teach them how to plant them."

The reason for doing this is that we are afraid that if we give it to others now, they will have nothing to eat when the time comes and might eat the sweet potatoes we planted as well.

When people are extremely hungry, they can do anything.

"it is good."

The proposal was passed unanimously.

The next day, Zhu Jiu led people to put the sweet potatoes that were damaged when digging or those that were not growing well in the field into baskets. There were a total of 10 large baskets.

There are four villages around.

Zhu Jiu picked out two large baskets of sweet potatoes from the good ones, making a total of twelve large baskets.

A village like this can get three baskets!

For fear that they wouldn’t know how to eat them, we gave each village an extra ten cooked sweet potatoes.

The village chiefs of the four villages that received the gifts expressed their gratitude repeatedly.

Although there are three baskets of sweet potatoes in a village, each person only gets a few pounds, and maybe only one of the slightly larger sweet potatoes.

But if it can solve the problem of meal, it is meal.

They were still very grateful.

“Is this what you planted in your fields this year?”

Zhu Jiu had nothing to hide: "Yes."

“Does this thing have high yield?”

"How many kilograms per acre? What do you think?"

"So high? How do you grow this thing?"

"It's very simple. Next spring, when the temperature rises, you can bury the sweet potatoes in the soil. They will sprout and grow vines. In April, when the vines are long, you can cut them off, stick them in the ground, and water them every day. This sweet potato not only has a high yield, but is also extremely vigorous and easy to grow." Zhu Jiu deliberately told the planting method to several village heads.

I just want to see if the village chiefs are people with ulterior motives.

If they really wanted to improve the future of the villagers, they would seize this opportunity.

Maybe they would rather go hungry than save the sweet potatoes to plant next year.

No matter how hungry you are, you refuse to eat the sweet potatoes. Then next year, you can help them with peace of mind.

Don’t worry that they will eat the sweet potatoes you grow as food!

In fact, the four village chiefs did not disappoint.

After taking people to carry the sweet potatoes that Zhu Jiu sent back, the first thing he did was to pick out the good ones and preserve them.

Then the remaining not-so-good sweet potatoes were distributed to the villagers.

……

This side of Zhu Village.

Zhu Jiu naturally would not let the villagers in his village suffer.

After leaving enough sweet potatoes for planting next year, half of the remaining sweet potatoes will be kept in the village canteen, and the remaining half will be distributed equally to the villagers based on the number of people.

It’s also fine to eat raw.

It’s okay to cook it and eat it.

Or you can dry them into sweet potato chips or sweet potato chips.

He even has no objection if it is to be given away as a gift.

Anyway, it belongs to the villagers privately, and everyone can do whatever they want with it.

The sun has been shining brightly these past few days, and every household in Zhu Village is drying sweet potatoes in front of their doors.

If there are many children in the family, we also make sweet potato candy.

The children sat on the doorsteps of their homes, licking the black sweet potato candies, they were so happy.

Of course, more and more people have gone out of the village to visit relatives in recent days.

He said he was sending it to relatives to try.

In fact, everyone knows that such high-yield crops are given to relatives at home to grow.

After all, I can have enough food to eat, and the last thing I want is that other relatives are still hungry.

When someone comes to borrow food, will you lend it to him or not?

The best situation is that you have some spare money and your relatives can have enough to eat.

……

In the blink of an eye, it's New Year again.

There is still half a month left until the Chinese New Year.

Su Yunluo arranged for people to deliver New Year's goods from the six villages: Yikeshuxia Village, Sakeshuxia Village, Daliushuxia Village, Zhu Village, Shanglou Village, and Xialou Village.

Except for the different dividends that each village deserves, all other New Year goods are the same.

It included ten kilograms of flour, two kilograms of melon seeds, one kilogram of peanuts, one kilogram of dried sweet potatoes, half a kilogram of candy, two kilograms of pork, a chicken, a fish, and a new set of clothes for the winter for each person.

Su Yunluo personally delivered the New Year’s goods to Huangcun.

Huangcun has been building factories this year.

Su Yunluo rarely goes there on weekdays, and leaves full responsibility to Huang Yong, the village chief of Huangcun.

This time, I went to inspect it in person under the pretext of delivering New Year's goods.

The last time I came here was nearly half a year ago.

Last time, the progress was only halfway.

And now, it is almost completed.

Su Yunluo couldn't help but praise after seeing this: "Village Chief Huang, you guys are amazing."

Huang Yong is tall and strong, and he was a little embarrassed when he heard the compliment: "Now that everyone has enough food every day, they naturally have the strength to work."

"According to this progress, it will be put into use by the middle of next year."

"I thought that after the Chinese New Year, I could finish everything in one or two months."

"During the New Year, I still suggest that everyone take a good rest." Su Yunluo said, "There is no need to rush to catch up."

"No need to rest. Everyone says that now that we can eat enough every day, everyone is as happy as if it were Chinese New Year. If you eat enough but don't work, you are just raising a lazy bug at home, which will make you a bad person."

"Okay, then you decide for yourself, but don't work too hard, you hear me?"

"It's not hard at all. The life we ​​live now is exactly what everyone dreams of."

After Su Yunluo finished chatting with Huang Yong, they had lunch in the canteen in Huangcun.

Then we started distributing New Year’s goods to the villagers on the spot.

"Thank you, Mrs. Su."

"Thank you, Mrs. Su."

Among the crowd of people expressing their gratitude, a little girl with pigtails received the New Year gifts and said to Su Yunluo with an innocent look on her face: "Madam Su, I hope you will live a long life."

Su Yunluo asked the little girl with a smile: "Do you really want me to live a hundred years?"

"Yes. My mother said that our good life now is all given by Madam Su. As long as Madam Su is here, we will always have a good life and be able to eat enough. So, Madam Su, you must live a long, long time, okay?"

Su Yunluo was amused by these words: "Okay. I will try my best to live a good life and live a long, long life."

Stayed in Huangcun for three days.

For three days, Su Yunluo did nothing but work with everyone on the construction site.

There are many details that you cannot see just by standing by and watching.

Only by participating in it yourself can you see the end.

The result is that the villagers of Huangcun work very hard.

For three whole days, she didn't notice anything wrong.

This is the best way. After returning, you can celebrate the New Year in peace!
