Chapter 282 Excited
Gong Yuling is picky about what he eats. He usually only eats spirit fruits and candies. He can eat some seafood. He doesn't touch other meats, especially the spicy ones. Shaking his head at first.
Li Chu thought about it, grabbed a handful of milk-flavored sunflower seeds from the kitchen cabinet, gave it to Gong Yuling, and poured her a strawberry juice with Huaiguo.
The wheat orange tube was put away, placed on the table, and greeted Gong Yuling: "Lingling, melon seeds and juice are especially good, try it."
Gong Yuling really got interested. This strawberry is not produced by Qixun Space, but grown in his own fields. Now is the time for the results, but the food he eats at home is watered by Lingyu with spiritual rain, which is sweet and sour. , very good.
Gong Yuling really likes it.
It's just that the little man's way of eating melon seeds is so cute. After Li Chu taught her how to eat melon seeds, she took it one by one seriously and looked like she couldn't stop, which made everyone laugh.
Lingzhou asked Fusu, "It's the time for strawberries to go on the market, how are they selling?"
Lingyu only cares about farming, and how to deal with the output in the field is now in charge of Fusu.
Fusu said with a smile: "Every afternoon picking, there are merchants in the county who come to buy them. They sell very well and the price is very good. Now a pound is sold for 50 cents, but it's still not enough for those merchants. I thought that our county could not digest so much, after all, no ordinary people bought it at this price, but our own people in the county actually bought less than half, and most of them were purchased by passenger ships in the past when they went ashore to supply supplies."
"Then this season is all about the strawberry harvest, I'm afraid there won't be less."
Fusu nodded: "Although only 20 acres have been planted, there is always an income of four or five hundred taels. There are many people in the village who have followed suit. In strict accordance with the planting method of Lingyu Sect, the harvest is similar to that of my family. , but most of them are sporadically, and they are sold to traders along with the fruits from my family. Fortunately, the villagers have not fooled people by picking their own fruits. They are all in good condition. I calculated, after one season, a family can also There is an income of three to five taels."
Lingzhou frowned when he heard this: "This income is really attractive. If every family planted strawberries in Mingqiu, it would affect the wheat production. It would be fine for our village alone. If other villages also learn to follow the trend and affect the taxation of grain, how would it be? Good? I'm afraid there will be a big problem."
Fusu said: "Brother reminds me that I have thought of it before, but if you don't ask people to follow to make money, it will definitely not work. In fact, if you really want to form an industry and develop the characteristics of Linjiang, it is not a bad thing, but it will affect the taxation of a place. Food is indeed a big problem. But in the short term, I am not afraid. Without seeds, I can’t follow the trend elsewhere. Even if we want seeds in our village, I will let Lingyu provide them in limited quantities. Let's discuss it, let the county issue a decree, and the grain fields can be used for other purposes. If you want to plant, you can open up wasteland and only use the wasteland to plant. This will not only affect the grain harvest, but also create more income for the people. Fortunately, because of the promotion of agricultural tools, capable people can open up more wasteland. I heard that the county has reported more wasteland than the previous ten years combined. "
Speaking of this, Fusu shook his head: "Actually, I saw the medicine garden opened by the third sister, but I felt that strawberries are not enough. We have many mountains and rivers, and planting medicinal materials is the most suitable. Fruits are not easy to transport, especially It’s strawberries. Once more plants are planted, it will be a problem whether they can be sold or not. But there is no need to consider the transportation of medicinal materials. In the long run, planting medicinal materials is more likely to form an industry.”
Lingzhou immediately said: "Fu Su, your proposal is very good, but you can give some advice to Lord Xianzun. If this is the case, in a few years, these apprentices who are now following the third sister, I am afraid that the county government will be rushing to it. If they want, it can be regarded as a way out for them.”
Speaking of this, Fusu also laughed: "The third sister originally wanted to teach a few doctors, but because of the medicine garden, these children became interested in planting herbal medicine. Among the dozen or so children, only one girl has some medical skills. Talent, a kid is interested in pharmaceuticals, so the third sister now wants to ask the slaves from Grandpa Chen's side to help her manage the sales of pharmaceuticals. There is really no one. "
Lingzhou also laughed: "Who told us brothers to either have our own business or are still young? Otherwise, we can help the third sister."
Family society, at this time, the benefits of having more brothers are reflected.
Their cousins, even if they are close relatives, add up to ten people, but when they really employ people, they find that no one is available.
From the clansman village, Lingsu picked a dozen apprentices, and there were more than a dozen young masters who were good farmers in Lingyu who followed him to plant experimental fields. The business of Qixun not only attracted the uncle’s family, but also his own side. There are Lingqi and Liu Jiasanlang. These two people have opened more stores now, and they have selected a few young men in the village to be their buddies.
And his own tofu business also hired a few people.
The fourth aunt spins thread, and there are many people in the village who raise rabbits and sheep.
The Liu family mainly raises pigs now, and their bean dregs are basically called the Liu family.
The paper mill in the village also recruited many workers.
The uncle also found a few apprentices in the village.
Unconsciously, the whole village is thriving, not only the men are busy, but also the women and girls, all become busy, as if the life of each family is getting better.
It's only been a year, and Lingzhou heard that several houses have ordered bricks and tiles, and they want to build large brick houses. The construction will start only when the weather warms up tomorrow, and there are even one or two homes that will start construction in the past two days. Those who want to live in a new house in time for the New Year.
And these all benefit from the second uncle's family.
Lingzhou knew that the second uncle's family had secrets, and some changes made it difficult for him to worry, but he was sure that the second uncle and aunt were still the second uncle and the second aunt, the cousin was still the cousin, and they had the ability to protect themselves. , then these changes are acceptable.
Brothers and sisters have become monks, what else is impossible?
There are mythical beasts and spirits of heaven and earth in the house, how many impossible things have become possible!
Fusu also smiled and said: "Then eldest brother, you have to take good care of the brothers below. In the future, our family will not have to worry about no one being available. Speaking of this, I heard Hao'er say, Xiao Jiulingye He has the aptitude to practice, but he is only six years old, so he is not in a hurry. He has to ask his fourth uncle to let Ling Ye practice. Xiaojiu's aptitude is acceptable. But the road of cultivation is difficult, not as good as imagined. If he doesn't want to be trapped in Yanjia Village and go out, it will be dangerous. Therefore, Haoer has never mentioned it. He wants to wait for Xiaojiu to be older, or ask him own meaning."
Lingzhou was very excited after hearing this: "Really? Can Xiao Jiu really become a monk?"
Fusu nodded.
