Rebirth, end of the world, time travel, escape famine, make money!

After Lin Weizhong explained everything to Liu Caixia, he was extremely happy.

He liked Liu Caixia and Liu's father and their family very much. If he married Liu Caixia in the future, he and they would be a real family in this dynasty.

In the following period, Lin Weizhong would still hide when he saw the widow Cao at noon every day. He did secretly let several aunts in his family and the neighbors reveal some news about him and Liu Caixia.

It's nothing more than that they fled here together, and they developed feelings for each other after spending a long time together. Both families support their remarriage, and they are now getting along with the intention of getting married, but there have been a lot of things going on at home recently, so they will arrange the wedding when the family is free.

After ten days or so, Widow Cao realized that she had no chance, so she stopped coming to the spicy hot pot shop to order food every day. After that, she would occasionally come back and give Lin Weizhong a cold look, but she didn't pester him.

In the other village, Father Liu was arranging people to plant sweet potatoes in full swing. The sweet potatoes planted in the field before had grown lush vines. Father Liu hired people in the village to help with transplanting.

Transplanting sweet potato vines is an agricultural task that requires meticulousness and patience.

After completing land preparation work such as deep plowing, fertilizing and leveling, the important moment of transplanting sweet potato vines arrives.

First, choose healthy and vigorous sweet potato vines as the objects for transplanting. Such sweet potato vines have stronger vitality, are more likely to survive after transplanting, and have a stronger growth momentum.

Generally speaking, the sweet potato vines you choose should have dark green leaves, thick stems, and no signs of pests or diseases.

One day before transplanting, the sweet potato vines should be watered thoroughly so that they can fully absorb water and increase their survival rate after transplanting.

On the day of transplanting, it should be done in the early morning or evening as much as possible, and avoid transplanting at noon when the sun is strong, so as to prevent the sweet potato vines from losing too much water due to excessive transpiration.

When transplanting, first use a shovel or hoe to dig a hole of appropriate size in the pre-prepared land. The size of the hole should be determined according to the size of the sweet potato vine and the condition of the root system.

Then dig the selected sweet potato vines out of the original soil, try to keep their roots and reduce damage to the roots. After digging, gently shake off the excess soil, put the sweet potato vines into the dug pit, and then fill the pit with soil and gently compact it so that the roots of the sweet potato vines are in close contact with the soil.

After transplanting, the sweet potato vines need to be watered immediately to replenish the water lost during transplanting. After watering, the verticality of the sweet potato vines should be checked in time. If they are tilted, they should be straightened in time and fixed with soil.

In the few days after transplanting, the growth of the sweet potato vines should be closely monitored. If necessary, management work such as watering and fertilizing can be carried out in a timely manner.

At the same time, we must also pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and pests to ensure the healthy growth of sweet potato vines. At this time, there are no special pesticides, and they can only be cared for manually. In the seedling period, the transplanted sweet potato vines are very fragile, so we can only send people to inspect them every day. If any pests are found, they will be removed manually immediately.

If you come across any damaged sweet potato vines, replace them immediately to ensure that sweet potatoes can grow in every nest, not wasting any land and increasing the sweet potato yield.

Although transplanting sweet potato vines is a tedious task, only by doing this step well can a solid foundation be laid for the high yield and quality of sweet potatoes. When Liu's father arranged for others to transplant sweet potato vines, he must be patient and meticulous and follow scientific methods in order to obtain a better harvest.

Luo Hong took the three boys in his family and Wan Tongsheng to the county town to take the exam.

There were quite a lot of people in the county taking the exam. Luo Hong asked Liu Hao to tell Lin Weizhong the time in advance. Lin Weizhong had been looking for a house near the county school during this period, but he had not found a suitable one. The time was getting closer and Luo Hong and his friends were about to take the exam. After discussing with Liu Caixia, Lin Weizhong chose a house far away from the county school.

The layout of the house is similar to that of Malatang's house, except that there is no back door. There is a shop in front and the yard behind the shop is relatively small. On one side is a wall connecting it to the next house, and on the other side there is a kitchen, next to the kitchen is a small ear room, and next to the ear room is a slightly larger main room.

Fortunately, the yard was not big, with a well in the middle. In front of the house lived an old couple who were doing business. Their son passed the imperial examination and met a good classmate. In order to better participate in the subsequent examinations, he decided to follow this classmate to study in the provincial capital.

The old couple sold the house and bought a smaller house in the city, and continued to run the food business. The house used to sell a kind of snack, a bit like the modern glutinous rice dumplings, which were made of steamed glutinous rice. They could sell it all day and night, and the business was pretty good.

Since we don’t cook, and the kitchen doesn’t use much oil or water, the kitchen and the shop in front are very clean, without a heavy smell of oil smoke, and the house is also very bright.

When Liu Caixia went to see it, she was still sighing, "I'm afraid this shop is not very good at making spicy hot pot. The smell of oil smoke is too strong, and the kitchen and shop are too small."

"The bedrooms at the back are smaller, so this is the best option at the moment. There's nothing special about the county school, so basically no one will sell houses or shops."

"Yes, they are going to take the exam soon. If there is really nothing suitable, just buy it. Can you talk about the price?"

"The dealer said that if you want to buy it, you'd better hurry up. I'm the first one to ask about this shop. It's just been put up for sale. If more people know about it, it will probably sell well. Not to mention the price will be lower, it's even possible that it will go up."

Liu Caixia knew that he had also made arrangements with Yazi, and what Yazi said should be true, so she nodded and said, "Then buy it. I'll go back and study it. We'll sell cold pot skewers in the back. We'll make some bamboo tubes, and people who come to buy skewers can take them away, or sit inside and eat. This way, we don't need too many seats in the shop. People who are in a hurry can also take them away."

Lin Weizhong looked at Liu Caixia and said in surprise, "Caixia, you are really smart. Why didn't I think of that? In the past, when we went to the food court, Ke Yu would always buy a bucket and eat while walking."

"Well, I just remembered it because I saw someone eating candied haws over there." Following the direction Liu Caixia pointed, he saw a woman with a little boy. The little boy was happily eating a string of candied haws.

"Then we need to ask Uncle Wang to make some bamboo sticks and bamboo tubes in the village. The sooner we prepare them, the sooner we can start business. I will go to the Asian Development Bank to reserve a house in a while."

"Okay, let's go together. Let's order some furniture. We need to make a few more beds in this room, and put a bed in the side room so that two maids can stay there. We need to make a big bunk bed in the other room so that several people can stay there. Wan Tongsheng will take the exam with Uncle Luo, so we must let him live here."

"The Tongsheng exam is okay, but the subsequent county exam will last for six days. If you don't eat or sleep well, your body will definitely not be able to bear it."

"Well, Uncle Luo said that it would be okay for several men to live together at that time."

The house was decided, and the price was more expensive than their previous shop, but the area was indeed almost half the size. The location was different, and there was no way to avoid such a big price difference.

The old couple stayed for two more days and then left. Lin Weizhong hired someone to clean the house and buy all the furniture for the house so that they could move in directly.

Luo Hong moved in with his people almost two days in advance.
