After farming, I opened a family tree

We are looking for people who are good at farming and land reclamation.

Shen Tang still has ten acres of land given by Liu.

The hybrid rice seeds given by the system are just enough for two acres of land, so Shen Tang plans to use the remaining ten acres for flowers and trees.

Soaps require hydrosols, and even if you want to develop an essential oil series later, flowers and trees are a must.

Just going up the mountain to look for it is not enough.

Therefore, Shen Tang had the idea of ​​planting flowers and trees by himself.

And my own soap always has to have a dominant floral scent.

There are too many representative flowers in Jiangnan, but Shen Tang already has a few in mind.

Gardenia and jasmine are the most outstanding representative flowers of Jiangnan.

Moreover, gardenia and jasmine are not only easy to grow, but also have a good fragrance.

If you want to know what farmers have the most, it must be farmers.

The notice said twenty cents a day, and the entire Shenjia Village became busy again.

In two days, Shen Dashan had selected the people.

Shen Tang went to find Xiang Niangzi, who was going to find the gardener in Qingshan Town.

Rich families all have their own gardens, which are filled with not only common flowers and trees but also many rare species.

Shen Tang came to find a gardener because there was no one in Shenjia Village who knew how to grow flowers and trees, and she wanted to find someone who knew how to grow flowers and trees.

Madam Xiang took Shen Tang to the west of the city.

The wealthy families of the town live in the east, while the ordinary people live in the west.

"This is Uncle Li, who used to send flowers to my shop."

Madam Xiang introduced herself and said that she was in the rouge and powder business, so naturally she had to deal with flowers and trees.

Uncle Li is the old gardener whom she has known for many years since she first opened her shop.

It was just two years ago that he accidentally fell while trimming flowers and trees for a wealthy family. He didn't have time to get treatment in time, and the injury to his leg left him lame.

After becoming a cripple, he could no longer take care of the flowers and trees in his home and could only take care of a small number of them.

We can only rely on the good reputation over the years and the care of old customers to make ends meet.

When Xiang Niang heard that Shen Tang wanted to find an experienced gardener and wanted to bring him back to Shenjia Village, the first person she thought of was Uncle Li.

"Uncle Li, my sister really wants you to guide her."

"Uncle Li, you and Sister Li will come with me to Shenjia Village. You will live there from now on. I will pay you one or two taels of silver per month."

"You don't have to take care of it yourself. When the time comes, you can take a few apprentices and let them help you with the work."

Uncle Li had a son in his old age, and his son is only ten years old now.

"Xiaobao, I'll pay for him to go to school."

Uncle Li looked at Madam Xiang with tears in his eyes.

In recent years, as his legs and feet became less agile, he could no longer take care of the flower fields at home and had to sell many of them.

My wife doesn't know how to grow flowers, my health is not good, and my son has no interest in growing flowers.

The quality of the flowers grown is far inferior to before.

"What are you still hesitating about! This must be the boss, he's truly young and promising!"

"Is Shenjia Village the same Shenjia Village that the county magistrate mentioned some time ago?"

Shen Tang nodded. Not only did she know, but she was also one of the protagonists.

The west side of the city is far from the east side, so Mrs. Li didn’t see the excitement, but she heard a lot about it.

"Sister-in-law Li knows about this matter, and she must also know what kind of business I am doing now."

"This sister is actually my boss. The things I sell are from her workshop!"

Uncle Li was stunned when he heard this. Madam Xiang hadn't come since the New Year. He thought that business was not good, but he didn't expect that she had changed her business.

"I won't hide it from you. I have ten acres of land and want to plant flowers and trees. I need fresh flowers for my workshop. And ten acres will definitely not be enough in the future. I will plant more flowers, so I would like to ask you, an old master, to help me look after them."

What Shen Tang said was sincere, but it was also true.

Ten acres of land may sound like a lot, but if you only pick flowers, there are actually not that many. Moreover, it takes several kilograms of flowers to produce one kilogram of pure water, and the only reason there is so much is because of the low level of purification.

"Okay, I'll go with you. As for the apprentice you mentioned, I want to choose him myself."

Uncle Li put forward a condition.

In this era, having an apprentice is equivalent to having half a son, so it is reasonable for Uncle Li to make this request.

Uncle Li's family now farms the land, and only three acres of peach orchard remain.

Shen Tang waved her hand and bought them all.

It just so happened that these three acres of peach trees were all planted in her land.

Uncle Li’s peach tree is not an ordinary peach tree, but a decades-old peach tree.

Not only are the flowers fragrant, but the fruits are also sweet.

This is also the reason why Uncle Li and his family take care of this peach orchard. The peaches can be sold for some money in the summer.

Sister Li is a quick and efficient person.

Then I started packing my luggage.

Several people agreed to come to Shenjia Village three days later.

Madam Xiang took Shen Tang back to the shop and gave Shen Tang the profits from the period.

The total amount is two thousand one hundred and fifty-seven taels of silver.

Considering that Uncle Li's family was going to move in, Shen Tang bought some bedding, pots and pans.

After the beginning of spring, the weather gradually became warmer, and Shen Tang bought some new cloth.

Madam Xiang also said that many of the people who came to her shop to buy things recently were from Lin'an Prefecture.

Because of the purchase limit rule, those people come to buy six pieces every day without any hesitation.

I bought a lot of them, both good and bad.

I heard that many of the people there were peddlers.

It was bought from Qingshan for eight taels of silver, and sold for ten taels of silver in the provincial capital or even further away.

When Shen Tang heard this, he realized that this was just speculation and the middlemen making a profit from the difference.

This is a good thing. The fact that there are many peddlers coming here proves that the market demand for this soap is still high.

Moreover, a family that can afford to buy soap for ten taels of silver must not be a poor family.

A wealthy family naturally has a large population and high consumption.

Shen Tang was waiting, waiting for who would take the initiative to attack.

After returning home, Shen Tang told Shen Dashan and Liu about finding a gardener.

"Since the gardener is coming, let them live in this yard and we will live in the workshop."

Liu spoke.

Recently, there have been signs of discord within the second room.

She could hear Wang and Old Mrs. Shen arguing every day.

And they all have one thing in common, which is that they are blaming their first wife openly or secretly.

When the workshop was built, Shen Tang considered the need for people to live there.

The last row of the workshop is a warehouse, with two empty rooms, which are used to find someone to guard the warehouse in the future.

Shen Dashan and Liu volunteered to look after the warehouse.

Shen Tang also considered that it would be better to have his own people look at it than to ask others to look at it.

Shen Qingqing and Qin Yan lived next door to them.

Qin Wanwan still lived with Shen Tang in the room at the edge of the first row of the workshop.

When Uncle Li arrived at Shenjia Village, the second wife discovered that the first wife had been busy these days helping with the move.

There were originally three rooms in the Shen family yard, and later two smaller rooms were built.

Therefore, there is absolutely no problem for Uncle Li and his family to move in.

Mrs. Li even exclaimed, "That's great."

The first meal that Uncle Li prepared when he came to the Shen family was prepared by Liu herself.

After taking a bite, Sister Li praised the meal highly, especially Uncle Li’s ten-year-old son, who ate two large bowls of rice.

The two were worried that their son would not be able to adapt, but they didn't expect that they could win over the boy with just a meal.

The next day, Uncle Li went to the field. Planting flowers not only depends on the weather, but also on whether the soil is suitable.

Madam Xiang also sent people to slowly deliver the peach trees to Uncle Li's house.

The grass gradually turned green and the rice seeds in the fields grew a lot bigger.

Shen Dashan has been guarding the field every day since the seedlings were transplanted.

There is no other reason, it’s just because the seedlings are so strong!
