Space Food Storage: Daily Travel

Another busy farming season has arrived.

Every day, accompanied by the sound of roosters crowing, the villagers of Fulai Village get up early to harvest rice. Because they harvested a lot of rice last autumn, everyone planted the rice with extra care this time.

Since there was not much farm manure available, some people went to the mountains to dig humus. In short, they took good care of the rice fields.

This year's rice yield is even higher than last autumn's, with several hundred more kilograms per mu, bringing the total yield to around 1800 kilograms per mu. This is already a very good result.

Everyone was very happy. Although they didn't have much good land, the yield was so high that they could grow two crops a year, which was enough for their own consumption.

Moreover, they did not have to pay taxes within three years, and the excess rice was sold to the government office.

Now Changle County has enough grain seeds. A lot of rice in Changle County has been sold to the government office, and then distributed to other government offices in the south. This is also the news issued by the emperor. There are many fertile fields in the south, which can be planted twice a year and are more suitable for rice cultivation.

We will promote planting in all the south this year, and the extra grain will be collected unconditionally at that time. Next year, we will promote planting on a large scale in the north and even nationwide.

Not only high-yield rice is promoted, but also sweet potatoes and potatoes.

At the end of last autumn, the Grand Minister of Agriculture heard about the situation and went to Fu'an City for investigation. The Grand Minister of Agriculture also came from a farming family, so he naturally understood what these high-yield grains and crops meant.

He announced the crops and high-yield grain seeds he had seized to the emperor in a very high-profile manner, hoping that the emperor would strongly support Fu'an City in promoting grain crops and encourage and reward those who discovered the crops.

Therefore, the Huo family received unparalleled honors and received many rewards. Huo Dong gave all these rewards, whether they were money or items that could be resold, to the Liu family unconditionally.

They just showed up, it doesn't mean they want to steal the honor.

Liu Yuhan naturally accepted it generously. This was the credit of the space and the Liu family, and they accepted it with peace of mind.

After harvesting rice, Fulai Village continued to harvest potatoes and sweet potatoes.

The other county magistrates learned their lesson and directly brought their men and ox carts to Fulai Village to buy sweet potatoes.

The rice government has to collect taxes, but they can directly buy and sell sweet potatoes and potatoes for promotion.

Both sweet potatoes and potatoes are sold at two cents per catty this year. Every household in Fulai Village is allocated at least 3 to 4 mu of sandy fields, and the yield per mu is about 3000 catties, which adds up to more than 20 catties. The income from more than catties is about taels. If two seasons are planted a year, the income is also taels.

Even if they can only sell it for a penny next year, they will still have half of their income. For farmers who work hard in the fields, this is already a very, very good income.

In addition, there are other people in the family working in the workshop, and some help the workshop collect things to sell, or help weave baskets. If you do the math, some people with large families and a lot of land can earn hundreds of taels a year!

Even if the price of sweet potatoes and potatoes drops next year, it doesn’t matter. The Liu family said they will purchase a large amount of peppers. They can also grow peppers. As long as they are willing to work hard, they don’t have to worry about not having an income.

With the massive harvest of sweet potatoes and potatoes, the vermicelli workshop started to be busy every day again. This time there were so many, enough to reach millions of kilograms!

The pressure of running a single workshop was too great! The Liu family bought the land at the end of the village that they had previously rented to Kuwa and his family. They demolished two courtyards and built a larger vermicelli workshop, adding several more warehouses within the walls.

Craftsman Niu had to stop working on the family suite and build the vermicelli workshop first. The workshop was built quite quickly.

After the workshop was completed, the 8 to 12-year-old children brought back helped to peel potatoes and sweet potatoes, freeing up some manpower for this large vermicelli workshop. Liu Daling calculated the date and opened it.

The weather is very hot now, and the vermicelli will dry out easily. The Huo family has also come more frequently to attract fans.

The Huo family also planted a lot of sweet potatoes and potatoes, and their potatoes and sweet potatoes were all taken away by people sent by my grandmother.

Qingyun City is not smaller than Fu'an City, and they need more. The Jiang family has their own dock, so they can sell it wherever they want.

The Liu family stayed at the Liu family for three days before returning to Haiyu Island. Liu Zhiyuan and his son took advantage of these days to help Liu Lu learn a lot. Liu Shinan and his wife sent them back.

Huo Nan and his two siblings stayed at the Liu family for half a decade and still refused to return home. Butler Huo had no choice but to let them go.

Before leaving for the capital, the eldest young master instructed him that if the three siblings didn't want to go back, it was up to them. If the mansion could get any beef, seafood, or fruit, he should give more to the Liu family.

Huo Dong always remembered the scene where Liu Yuhan ate seafood with great relish, and he also remembered the dried meat that Liu Yuhan gave him. He believed that she also liked the hard-to-find beef.

In just half a week, the Huo family's carriages came three times with gifts, all of which were delicious food. Old Mrs. Jiang and Liu Yuhan were annoyed and didn't want to say anything anymore, as it was useless to say anything.

Liu Yang has not returned to the army yet. He is waiting for his master to come back. Now he follows the army to work every day and goes wherever he is needed. He has become even darker.

Today, their family finally dug up the last bit of sweet potatoes, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

There were so many sweet potatoes piled in the yard that there was almost no place to step. Even Lightning and Laibao didn't want to go home and kept running up the mountain.

Liu Yuhan noticed that everyone had gotten darker, especially the younger ones. Huo Nan, who disliked wearing bamboo hats, had become even darker. Dark and muscular, he had a hard time staying away from food at the Liu family, so the weight he had finally lost was starting to grow back.

Seeing that the weather was hot and humid and everyone was working so hard, Liu Yuhan hid in the room and went into the space to make fruit smoothie.

I specially made two flavors.

Grind the ice into sand, put the chopped watermelon cubes on the smoothie, and add a spoonful or two of honey.

Another way to make smoothies is to add the fruit and grind it together. Then add a little honey according to your taste.

When she has time, she also makes mung bean popsicles and fruit popsicles, which are very popular among the children.

After dinner, they chatted while sorting potatoes and sweet potatoes in the small yard.

Liu Yang sighed deeply. "Why hasn't Master come back yet? Did he go to the capital to give gifts?"

"Brother Liu Yang, my brother gave a gift? What gift did he give to whom?" Huo Nan gossiped.

"It's just a wooden hairpin, which he made himself. He polishes it whenever he has time, and he hides it from us. I'm sure he gave it to the girl as a gift. Your brother must have gone to the capital to find a sister-in-law for you." Liu Yang looked serious.

"Cough cough..." Liu Yuhan choked while drinking water when he heard Liu Yang's words.

"Xiaohan, are you okay?"

"fine."

"Brother Yang, are you serious? Huo is such a good boy, there must be a lot of girls who like him, right? He's already so old and still not married, so he must have a girl he likes in his heart."

"Yes, grandma, I heard that the daughters of the general and the lieutenant general in the military camp are crying and making a fuss, wanting to marry him!"

"Brother Liu Yang, is this true? Is my eldest brother really going to find us a sister-in-law? That's great! We've been wanting a sister-in-law for a long time."

"Huonan, your elder brother found you a sister-in-law, why are you so happy?"

"You don't understand. When my eldest brother gets married with his wife, they'll soon have a child. Then he won't have as much energy to take care of me. Wouldn't I be freer then? Haha... That's great!"

"Cough cough cough..."

"Xiaohan, why are you coughing again?"

"Brother, it's okay. My throat is a little itchy. I'm going to rest while you guys chat."

Liu Yuhan walked towards the door with slightly messy steps.

Old Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Liu exchanged glances and smiled.
