Baby brings his own shopping mall to travel through

In this way, time passed, Damao and Yang Bolin followed the teachers to take the examination for the status of a scholar, and the sweet potatoes at home were ready to be dug.

Before the excavation in Qingshan Village, the village chief and the elders gathered the heads of each family for a meeting, saying that every household in the village could plant sweet potatoes in the next season, but how much to plant would depend on the arrangement of the nobles. First, focus on our village. If you want outsiders to compete with you, then you can go out and advertise. If you want to follow the nobles to make a fortune quietly, then keep it a secret. After this season, no one will stop you from planting in the future.

Who doesn't want to make a fortune in silence? If you reveal it to others, let alone outsiders, even your wife and her family will be annoyed enough.

The first planting was not much, only Qingshan Village and Uncle Li's family planted some, Uncle Li only had three acres of land, so Qi Xingyun prepared to dig both sides together, and sent Shopkeeper Wu to help Uncle Li's family. After digging, all the seeds were sent to Yang Dashan's family in Qingshan Village for processing, and no one knew the yield. It was announced to the outside world that the seeds were from the Jixiang Restaurant, and others would take them away after the harvest.

On the day of excavation, many villagers came to watch. Yang Dashan and his team had agreed in advance to go from house to house and collect the waste from each household.

One person carefully loosened the soil in front, and another followed to dig out the sweet potatoes one by one along the vines. He was really careful, afraid that the skin would be hard to preserve. The person behind him removed the soil with his hands and put it into the basket. When the basket was full, he carried it out. There was a long line of carriages waiting outside. Shopkeeper Wu and the accountant were waiting to weigh the baskets. They weighed a basket and loaded it onto the carriage.

The villagers only saw the happy expressions on the faces of the people weighing the crops, but no one told them the yield. Until the last household, Yang Dashan, who had several acres of land and took the longest time to dig, when the last basket was loaded onto the carriage, Shopkeeper Wu said something to Qi Xingyun and Zheng Huaming, which made them laugh with joy.

Everyone returned to Yang Dashan's house together. Except for representatives of a few planting households and several clan elders and village chiefs, the village chief sent everyone else away: "Go and do what you need to do. I will notify you when there is news." Then he even closed the gate of the courtyard.

Li was cooking in the kitchen, and the village chief's daughter-in-law, Aunt Gen, was also helping. It was impossible for one person to cook for so many people, so they also brought some vegetables from home.

Mrs. Li: "Fortunately, I have your help. I have all the dishes here. Just use what we usually eat at home. What haven't they eaten? And we can't come up with better dishes, so just cook what we usually eat."

Old Mrs. Yang was holding Xiao Cao'er in the main room listening to everyone talking. She was the elder of the family, so she had to be present, and Xiao Cao'er was the treasure of the family, so she also had to be present.

In fact, one of the village elders disliked that women and children, one big and one small, should not interfere in men's affairs here, and secretly told the village chief, and retorted to the village chief's words: "Sister-in-law is the elder of the family. This is what they found. We only planted a little because of their family's help. The nobleman bought it for their face. If she is not here, who will make the decision?"

One of the village elders said, "Don't we have us? Do we still need a woman to make the decision?"

Several other elders said, "Okay, we don't need to worry about this. We are just here to listen and have a meal. You can discuss the other major issues."

"How can we ignore such a big thing?" the village elder said unconvinced.

"What can you do about it? Do you know how to farm or do you know someone important? Just be a village elder. If there are benefits, you will be left out. If you keep causing trouble, no one will have anything to eat." He was speechless after being rebuked by the elder.

The village chief rolled his eyes at him in his heart: When we were planting, everyone complained about this and that, but now you want to take advantage of the benefits. People say it's a good thing, and they call you to give you face. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you are there or not. People can even plant without bringing villagers, and sell all and get money. It's because we can help our fellow villagers. We can't eat meat and watch our fellow villagers starve to death.

No matter how the village chief and his men argued with each other, Li took the opportunity to tell everyone while cooking that they could collect the sweet potato vines to feed the pigs, and if there were too many to feed the pigs, they could dry them and feed them. Several families hurried back to the fields to pick up sweet potato vines.

Now that you don’t have pigs, you can catch a piglet and raise it. Not only will you not waste food, you can also have a pig-killing meal at the end of the year, killing two birds with one stone.

In fact, most households used to raise a pig, but due to the drought they had nothing to feed the pigs and had no choice but to sell them, and then they never caught piglets again. Now that things are better, they can raise pigs again.

Catching piglets costs money, and not every family can afford it. Pigs are also an important asset for villagers and a major source of income besides crops.

Raising pigs is not a difficult job for people. It is the children who take care of the pigs. It is the children, especially the girls, who are responsible for feeding the pigs and cutting grass for the pigs every day. There is endless work to do at home every day.

Last year, the wives and young ladies in the village who knew a little sewing made a few copper coins by making premium sausage packaging materials. Now the young ladies in the village also learn sewing when they have time, thinking that if the Dashan family still makes sausages at the end of the year, they can make some money.
