Chapter 44: The whole village leaves seeds
More than a dozen people were very careful at first, fearing that the sweet potatoes would rot, but later on they became more skilled and faster, and after four days they finally harvested all the sweet potatoes.
I remembered that they wanted to grow sweet potatoes and change seeds. I calculated the prices. Brown rice is eight cents per pound. The yield per mu is about 10 to pounds. My yield is high, but if the seeds are good, I don’t need to buy much. pounds per family should be enough. If you buy seeds outside, it will be a little more expensive. I will use the normal price of brown rice, which is also eight cents!
I said to Xiu'er, "Xiu'er, if you want to exchange seeds, you can do so now. They are eight cents per pound. You can buy them with silver, or you can buy them with other things at a discount price."
To be honest, it's eight cents a pound. According to the output, I'm actually losing money. I think I'll just give up. If anyone in the village can help, then help!
When Xiu'er heard this, she quickly called the villagers and asked those who wanted to buy the seeds to come and pick them out.
The ten people who came to help exchanged all their four-day wages for sweet potatoes, and each of them brought an extra 20 cents from home, and each bought ten kilograms of sweet potatoes and took them back.
Other families exchanged 20 catties, some exchanged catties, the head of the village bought the most, catties. I looked at the people in the village, almost all of them came to exchange, the least exchanged catties.
The seed issue was resolved. I called the seed buyers over and told them to burn more ash when they got home and wait until the ash was completely cool. Then, put a layer of ash and a layer of sweet potatoes together and store them in a place with a higher temperature. This will keep the seeds warm in winter and prevent them from going bad next year.
If possible, it is best to build a shelf about two meters above the cooking fire and put the sweet potato seeds covered with ash on it. This is the best way to preserve sweet potato seeds. I saw this method when I went to my grandmother's house in modern times. The effect is very good. It can be preserved for a year without any problems.
They thanked me profusely and took the sweet potatoes home to plant them. They followed my instructions and saved the seeds.
When the clan leader heard what I said, he nodded at me and said, "Wife of Dalang, you have really done a great thing. If our village doesn't have enough food and clothing in the future, you have made an indelible contribution."
Me: Grandpa Clan Leader, I am also a member of this village. I will help everyone in any way I can. As long as everyone works together, there will be no problem in having enough food to eat.
I laughed along with the clan leader, but my eyes were looking everywhere. It seemed that almost everyone in the village had arrived, but I didn't see Old Man Xiao and his wife coming.
Xiuer saw what I meant, and came over to whisper to me, "The young man of the Xiao family didn't go to school, and his marriage didn't happen. He stayed at home and refused to go out. The old man Xiao and his wife often sighed and cursed at home."
I don't care about them, as long as they don't bother me, it's fine. I'm not a saint. I can't save all living beings.
When the last basket of sweet potatoes was loaded onto the car, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. I was no longer afraid of frost. I never understood the feelings of those people who write about the joy of a good harvest.
But after working hard and seeing the abundant harvest, I feel really good to be a little proud and like a local landlady. It seems that I will buy more land when I have the chance in the future. I won’t complain about anything else, just for the unique happiness when I see the mountains of food that belong to me!
All the sweet potatoes have been dug up, but the sweet potato vines are still there. If it were in a modern pig farm, this would be the best feed, but now it is of little use to me.
There are several families in the village who raise pigs. I thought it would be a waste if it was left on the land, so I asked them if they wanted to take it back to feed the pigs. Xiu'er, as soon as they heard that it could be used to feed pigs, the pig-raising families immediately called their family members and divided it all up.
I told them that if they couldn’t finish them in a short period of time, they could just chop them into pieces and dry them. This way they can be stored for a long time and can be used as a substitute when it snows heavily in winter and they can’t go out.
When I have land, I will also consider whether to set up a pig farm?
When Xiu'er, the last person, also carried her things back to the village, we also set off to return to the town, shouting. We moved the good sweet potatoes into the room, and left the rotten ones under the eaves. When we put everything away, the moon was already at its zenith.
I simply cooked some porridge and fried some hot and sour sweet potato shreds that the two brothers had never eaten before. This simple meal made the two brothers look amazing. "
Xiaobao: "Mother, so this is how you eat it."
Xiu Wen: "Mother, I have never eaten anything like this."
