I'm not worried about traveling through a farmer's house. I made my fortune by farming.
Chapter 96 Buy It All
"Yes, I want them all. Don't worry, I won't regret it."
Lin Yunchu's lips curled up slightly. This guy was quite honest. He was afraid that Lin Yunchu would regret buying it.
He didn't know that she had made a profit by spending two hundred coins to buy half a sack of potatoes. Once they were grown in the future, their value would be much more than that.
After hearing what Lin Yunchu said, Lin Changting knew that she was determined to buy this thing, so he stopped trying to persuade her.
It’s only two hundred coins. If you want to buy it, just buy it.
Then he stepped forward, tied the bag tightly, and put it in his backpack. It was really heavy, so he had to carry it himself if he was stronger.
After buying the things, the three of them did not delay any longer and hurried back to Qingxi Village.
Lin Yunchu was thinking about the half bag of potatoes in his backpack all the way. His family didn't have any extra land to grow these potatoes, so what should he do?
Before leaving today, Lin's father said that he wanted to reclaim some wasteland and plant some peppers.
Lin Yunchu closed her eyes and as the ox cart bumped and swayed along the way, she roughly counted the loquat paste harvest of the past few days.
I should be able to get a dozen or so taels of silver, otherwise I can buy some land.
Lin Yunchu had asked his father about the price of the land here before. First-class farmland was about three taels of silver, second-class farmland was about two taels of silver, and the lowest-class farmland was one tael of silver.
If they want to buy land, the money they have saved now is enough for the Lin family to buy a few acres of good farmland.
Moreover, the Lin family originally had few fields, and what farmers value most is the fields. Originally, Lin Yunchu was thinking of buying a cow, but now it seems that he should buy some fields first, as the potatoes can't wait any longer.
Moreover, the dividends from Yipintang should be quite a lot, so the matter of buying the cow can wait for now. The most important thing now is these potatoes.
Before Lin Yunchu could think clearly, he heard the hoarse voice of Old Man Niu saying, "We're at the village entrance."
Lin Yunchu came back to his senses instantly, slowly opened his eyes, and saw the familiar big banyan tree at the entrance of Qingxi Village in front of him.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Niu."
Lin Yunchu smiled, took out thirty copper coins and handed them to Old Man Niu, then thanked him.
He turned around, picked up his backpack, and said to Lin Changting and the others, "Let's go back."
The two nodded, nodded their thanks to Old Man Niu, and followed Lin Yunchu back to the Lin family.
Lin.
Father Lin and his men had been busy for half a day and had just returned. They had cleared a piece of wasteland, but they still had to wait for the weeds they had dug out to dry and burn into ashes.
The wasteland had to be fertilized before peppers could be planted. Father Lin and Lin Qingshan rolled up their sleeves, drew a basin of well water, and were about to wash their faces.
After working for half a day, the sun was very hot and everyone was sweating.
While he was still muttering about why Lin Yunchu and the other two hadn't returned yet so late, the courtyard door was pushed open.
"Oh, you guys are back. I was just thinking about you."
Father Lin wiped the water from his face and said to the others with a smile, "Come into the house and have some water. Did your trip to town go smoothly today?"
Everyone knew that today was the last batch of loquat paste to be delivered to Jishidiang, so when they saw Lin Yunchu and the other two coming back, they casually asked about it.
Lin Yunchu walked under the eaves, put down the backpack, breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at Lin's father and the others in the yard, and responded:
"It went smoothly. The money for the loquat paste has been settled. Uncle, don't go back later. Let's divide the money we spent on the loquat paste these days."
Lin Qingshan was always worried that his family would not have enough food to eat at the Lin family, so whenever he got the chance, he would rush back home and would not stay at the Lin family no matter what.
Lin Yunchu had mentioned this in advance. Now that Lin Qingshan and his family were all here, they would settle the accounts later. After dividing the money, she could also talk to Lin's father about buying land.
When everyone in the yard heard Lin Yunchu's words, their faces were instantly filled with smiles. After working for almost half a month, they were finally going to have some money.
Lin Qingshan quickly called out to Lin Cuizhi, who was standing beside him, and asked her to go back home. He also called Xu and his daughter-in-law Chunxi over.
The money in their family has always been handed over to the public treasury and managed by Xu. However, the family would talk about things with each other on a daily basis, and as long as it was normal expenses, Xu would agree.
The family's income and expenditure were not hidden, and everyone in the family knew about it openly.
After hearing this, Lin Cuizhi nodded quickly, walked out of the Lin family yard and ran back home.
Lin Yunchu was just about to say that there was no rush and that it was okay for her to go later, but when he looked up, he couldn't even see Lin Cuizhi.
Forget it, Lin Yunchu raised the corner of his mouth and said nothing more.
After drinking the water, he took out the meat and flour from the basket, as well as the half bag of potatoes, and carefully put them into the house.
Seeing Lin Yunchu's cautious look, everyone was curious about what he bought and saw that Lin Yunchu was struggling.
Lin Changping hurried forward to help carry the bag, and placed the half bag of potatoes in the corner behind the door according to where Lin Yunchu pointed.
"Yun Chu, what did you buy? Why does it look like this?"
Father Lin glanced at the bag on the ground. It looked like sweet potatoes, but he already had some at home, so there was no need to buy them in town.
This thing looks so heavy. If it were a sweet potato, it would be so troublesome to buy it in town and carry it back.
Lin Yunchu saw that everyone was looking at the potatoes on the ground with puzzled expressions. He brushed the dust off his hands, walked forward, untied the bag, took out a potato and placed it in his palm so that everyone could see it clearly.
Looking at the expressions on everyone's faces, which were exactly the same as the expressions Lin Changting and Lin Changping had just had in the rice shop, Lin Yunchu chuckled.
He quickly explained, "These are called potatoes. They can be used for cooking and are also edible. Once cooked, they're fine. They're similar to sweet potatoes, but the yield is extremely high. I was lucky enough to come across some today, so I bought some."
After hearing what Lin Yunchu said, everyone looked at the fist-sized, unremarkable lump in her hand. Lin Yunchu had just said it was called a potato.
Everyone looked at each other, and saw confusion in each other's eyes. They had never seen or heard of this thing before.
Is it really edible?
And it really doesn't look like it's edible. And they say this thing has a high yield, but how high can it be? Is it higher than the grains grown at home?
A hint of doubt flashed in Lin Changting's eyes. Just now at the rice shop, he was worried that Lin Yunchu would regret buying this thing. Unexpectedly, Lin Yunchu said that this thing can be used for cooking and as food.
Thinking about how Lin Yunchu had taken them into the mountains to pick mushrooms and bamboo shoots, as well as so many wild vegetables and fruits, it was finally proven that what Lin Yunchu said was absolutely right.
