Zhang Xiangui is from Shen Xuening's village. His home is on the edge of the village, surrounded by a lot of vacant land, most of which is planted with corn.

In the past, he always bought seeds at the market. This year, he heard from villagers that the seeds bought from Shen Xuening were better, so he also bought two kilograms of seeds and planted a wide area.

I have to say that his decision was a good one. Not only did the corn this year grow taller and stronger, but the corn cobs were bigger than ever before.

He has been growing crops for decades, but this is the first time he has grown such big corn, which makes people very happy.

Zhang Xiangui was afraid that someone would steal his corn, so now that it was almost ripe, he came to the field every day to check on it. He also raised a dog and tied the dog in the direction where the corn was planted. If someone came over, the dog would bark and keep a close eye on the corn for him.

"I heard from the villagers that the seeds I bought from Shen Xue Ning will be purchased when they mature. I wonder how much Shen Xue Ning is going to charge per pound?"

Zhang Xiangui thought about it and suddenly laughed. No matter what, Shen Xue Ning would definitely not buy corn at a price lower than the market price, so there was no need to worry.

Just as he was thinking, Liu Yujie came over: "Uncle."

Zhang Xiangui heard the voice and turned around quickly: "Xiao Liu, why are you here?"

We are all from the same village, so even if we are not familiar with each other, we know each other.

Liu Yujie smiled and said, "I came to see if your corn is ripe. If it is, I will buy it."

"Ah?" Zhang Xiangui was obviously surprised. "The corn is edible now, but it's still a long way from harvest. How can we buy it now?"

Liu Yujie said: "Just buy it like this. City people like to eat fresh corn, so now is the best time to buy it."

Zhang Xiangui understood: "You mean buying fresh corn?"

Liu Yujie nodded: "That's what I mean. One corn costs two yuan. We also want the corn stalks. You decide how much you want to sell them to me."

Zhang Xiangui was stunned: "Two yuan for one corn?"

Liu Yujie answered clearly: "Yes, we collect them by number."

Zhang Xiangui was a little incredulous: "Did you hear it wrong? Two yuan for one corn, or two yuan for a pound of corn?"

Liu Yujie emphasized: "It's two yuan per corn, not two yuan per pound."

Zhang Xiangui didn't know how to react. The purchase price was too high: "Then...then..."

Liu Yujie smiled and said, "Uncle, you heard me right, it's two yuan for one corn. If you agree, I will find someone to break the corn. They are urging us to get the goods now, and we are in a hurry."

Zhang Xiangui seemed to have just reacted: "Okay, okay, just pick it."

Liu Yujie said: "Then you just watch from the side and I will record how many I pick. I will record them for you according to the number, and I will pay you after I finish picking them."

Zhang Xiangui was very happy: "Great."

Liu Yujie called Zhang Xiaomei, and after a while, Zhang Xiaomei came over with a few people.

They came with tools and started to break corn. They put the corns in a basket neatly. After filling the basket, the staff moved the basket to Zhang Xiangui and counted the corns in front of the host and recorded the number on paper.

Zhang Xiangui watched the corns being picked one by one, as if he was looking at golden dolls. One corn cost two yuan, and he grew two kilograms of corn, which is almost three thousand kernels. Doesn't that mean more than six thousand yuan?

The corn we planted this year was really worth it and sold for so much money.

Normally, the corn at home can be sold for more than a thousand yuan, but this year it was sold several times more, making a lot of money. If I had known that the corn was so valuable this year, I should have planted more corn.

Zhang Xiangui's mood was a mixture of happiness and regret.

In one day, Liu Yujie and his men bought all the corn from Zhang Xiangui's family. After the purchase, he immediately gave the money to Zhang Xiangui.

Zhang Xiangui held a stack of banknotes, his eyes narrowed with smiles: "Xiao Liu, thank you."

"It doesn't matter." Liu Yujie took everyone away.

The next day, Liu Yujie went to buy corn from other people. The family's reaction was similar to Zhang Xiangui's, and they planted more corn than Zhang Xiangui, so they were even happier.

Corn was purchased back bit by bit to make up for the shortage of supply, and corn then returned to normal trading.

……

Shen Xue Ning came to the first team. It has been a while since the mountain was dug out, and she came to inspect it.

Xiang Yanfeng was the one she entrusted to manage this place, and it was he who called Shen Xuening. When he saw Shen Xuening coming over, he immediately came up to her and said, "Sister Xuening."

Shen Xuening nodded to Xiang Yanfeng: "Thank you for your hard work during this period."

"No, this is what I should do." Xiang Yanfeng smiled and shook his head, "Sister Xue Ning, take a look, if there is anything wrong, there is an excavator left here, it can be repaired immediately."

Shen Xue Ning said: "Please come with me."

Xiang Yanfeng said happily: "Okay."

Shen Xue Ning walked towards the mountain. The two mountains were flattened into one, but the middle was divided into many pieces and were not connected together. It looked like a grid.

Xiang Yanfeng was one step behind Shen Xuening: "Sister Xuening, I asked them to divide it this way, do you think it's okay?"

Shen Xuening nodded appreciatively: "Very good, this will make management easier."

Xiang Yanfeng said: "I also considered these things. Now it seems that I did the right thing."

Shen Xue Ning said: "That's good. It will be easier to arrange work in the future. Besides, it would be so tiring if I were to divide such a large piece of land by myself!"

Xiang Yanfeng nodded: "Yes, so I asked them to divide it in advance."

Shen Xue Ning walked around and made a big circle: "By the way, I heard you say during the interview that you studied botany?"

Xiang Yanfeng said: "Yes, I went to an agricultural university, but I didn't expect it would be so difficult to find a job."

Shen Xue Ning said: "It's hard to find a job anywhere now."

Xiang Yanfeng agreed deeply: "Fortunately, Sister Xue Ning started a business in her hometown, otherwise I am afraid I still haven't found a job. Sister Xue Ning, thank you."

"Don't be so polite." Shen Xue Ning said, "I need people and you need work, so it's a good opportunity for us to cooperate."

Xiang Yanfeng was silent for a while: "Sister Xue Ning, what should we do next?"

As Shen Xue Ning walked, she said, "Next, pull the pipe over and irrigate the land with pig manure. This land has never been planted before and is very barren, so we need to cultivate the land first, otherwise it will affect the growth of Du Qinghua."

Xiang Yanfeng said: "I understand, I will arrange it right away."

Shen Xue Ning said: "The farming team is helping me fertilize the tea trees over there now. I have arranged for them tomorrow, and then I will hand it over to you."

Xiang Yanfeng assured: "Okay, I will get it done."

Shen Xue Ning thought about it and encouraged him: "Although you are helping me farm, if the benefits are good, I will give you a bonus."

Xiang Yanfeng suddenly became excited: "Sister Xue Ning, I understand."

Shen Xue Ning likes people who are ambitious: "Work hard, I won't treat you unfairly."

Xiang Yanfeng replied heavily: "Yes."
