October in Zhoujia Village is coming, and Yang Yun remembers that at this time last year, the Yang family and the Li family were touching snails and water mussels in the river.

"Brother, let's go to the river tomorrow afternoon to touch the snails and sand mussels." At night, Yang Yun and Yang Yong and Yang Xuan are studying in the room, Yang Yun is drawing design, Yang Xuan is reciting the pharmacology he learned during the day, and Yang Yong is practicing big characters. In front of the two brothers, Yang Yun proposed to go to the river tomorrow to touch the snails. At this time, the people of Zhoujia Village will go to the river, touch the snails and go to the market to sell for money.

"Okay, this season is the time to eat snails, and we were touching snails to sell them at the market at this time last year."

"Yes, the poor days of the past are over, and when they saw things and wanted to sell them for money. Tomorrow afternoon, let's go to the river, touch some snails and sand mussels, and fry them for our own family to eat, so we won't sell them for money. Yang Yun remembers the first time she was by the river, when she found a snail, she was as excited as she was to discover a new world.

"Well, there are a lot of things going on at home now, and we don't have time to touch snails to sell, and besides, we don't need to make money by selling snails." Yang Yong knew that Yang Yun's workshop had made money, and Yang Yun did not avoid Yang Yong when he settled the accounts, and sometimes Yang Yun showed Yang Yong the accounts of the workshop and told Yang Yong how to calculate these accounts. Yang Yong knows that he already has some family background now, and his sister is really a little god of wealth who can make money.

"No, the old days are gone." Yang Yun thought of the past days, and her heart was infinitely emotional.

"Sister, I'm going to touch the snail tomorrow afternoon." Yang Xuan heard that Yang Yun was discussing the matter of touching the snails, and also said that they wanted to go together.

"Okay, you go to Grandpa Xu's house tomorrow to study for a while, and we won't go to the river until after the afternoon Shen Shi, you remember to go to find us by yourself."

"Okay, I'll go to the river tomorrow to find my sister and brother." After the three brothers and sisters discussed going to touch the snails tomorrow, they buried themselves in their own business.

The next day, Yang Yun went to the workshop to finish his work, and then returned home to cook lunch, Yang Yong usually only went to school in the morning to study, and in the afternoon he would stay at home to work, or go to the field with his grandfather to water and weed. Yesterday, Yang Yun asked Yang Yong to go to the river to touch the snails in the afternoon, and the brothers and sisters were busy with the affairs of the family.

Not long after, Yang Xuan also went to the river to find Yang Yun and them, and the three brothers and sisters touched a bucket of snails and half a pot of sand mussels in one afternoon. When the snails and mussels were brought home, Yang Yun cleaned them with well water several times, then soaked them in well water and let them spit out the sediment. Snails and mussels should be left for at least one to two days before they can be fried.

The Yang family and the Zhu family do salted egg business, the Yang family has already settled a deposit of twenty taels with the Zhu family, and now the Yang family sends salted eggs to the town, all with the Zhu family in cash. Yang Yun gave half of the money she earned from selling salted eggs during this period to Uncle Li. The Yang family still asked Chow Tai Fook to buy raw eggs, although Chow Tai Fook bought raw eggs, the Yang family did not pay him, but every month the workshop put the head flower sold in the grocery store, Zhou's sister-in-law can take two percent of the profit, Zhou's sister-in-law has made a lot of money, Yang Yun went to the town last time and found that Zhou's sister-in-law bought a pair of new bracelets.

One day later, Yang Yun cut off the butt of the snail a little, cleaned it a few times and fried the snail to eat, and the sand clam boy also fried a plate, and when the dinner was in the evening, the family ate the snail and the sand clam for a while, and soon ate the snail and the sand clam boy.

"Sister, your fried snails are so delicious, you can fry some more tomorrow to eat." Yang Xuan is very fond of snails.

"Okay, we touched a bucket yesterday, and now we still have more than half a bucket to eat, and I'll fry it for you at noon tomorrow."

"Okay, my favorite is fried snails." Yang Xuan heard Yang Yun say that he would fry snails tomorrow, and jumped up happily, he liked to eat what his sister cooked the most.

"Is there anything you don't like to eat, as long as it's eaten, you don't have anything you don't like." Yang Yun pinched Yang Xuan's little face dotingly, now that the family has made money, Yang Xuan's nutrition can keep up, Yang Xuan has grown fat, and his little face is red and fluttering, like a red apple, how cute he looks.

This season is the time when the snails grow the fattest, this year the Zhu family did not come to the village to buy the snails, directly in the backyard of the restaurant in the town, opened a small door to buy these raw snails, the snails touched by the villagers of Zhoujia Village were taken to the town to sell to the Zhu family, the price was the same as last year, the snails that were not cut sold for eight cents a catty, and the buttocks that were cut were sold for ten cents a catty.

The people of the Yang family and the Li family occasionally wanted to eat snails, so they went to the river to touch some and come back to eat, and neither family planned to join the team of selling snails. Now the two families are busy with the four acres of wasteland in the back mountain and the twelve acres of wasteland under the right mountain. There is still an acre of sweet potatoes on the back mountain that have not been harvested, which was planted later, and it will not be harvested until at least November. The people in the village shook their heads speechlessly when they saw the two families planting a large number of vegetables, and the two families were like fools, where could they finish planting so many vegetables.

In winter, every household grows radishes and cabbage, and who will lack these vegetables to eat. The two families are now very calm, no matter what the villagers say, the two families only proceed according to the original plan.

On the wasteland on the right side of the mountain, four acres of cabbage, four acres of radish and four acres of mustard were planted, plus four acres of mustard were planted under the back mountain, and a total of eight acres of mustard were planted. If you can't get enough of them, ask the people in the village to help. In winter, everyone is at home "cat winter", and there is no work at all, so Yang Yun can find a money-making job for everyone.

After the people of Zhoujia Village were busy with the autumn harvest and farming, they bought sweet potatoes from the Yang family and the Li family to make seeds. The Yang family and the Li family sold a total of more than 2,000 catties of sweet potatoes, and at least 100 catties of sweet potatoes were used as seeds for one acre of land. This time, the sweet potatoes planted by the Yang family and the Li family are big and weighty.

"Grandpa, Uncle Li, let's buy wasteland." Today, the two families happened to sell sweet potatoes together, and the two families were having dinner at Yang's house in the evening. Yang Yun has been thinking about buying land for a long time, she used to sell secret recipes and earned eighty taels of silver, grandpa was afraid that this silver would be used for it, it was too eye-catching, and now the two families have made a lot of money selling wheat and sweet potatoes, and it is the most suitable time to buy land.

"I've also thought about this, now that we have made money selling grain, the less silver is used at home, it is better to buy some land and come back to plant, and a variety of grain can be sold for money in addition to storage." It turned out that Uncle Li had also thought about buying land for a long time.

"I think the place on the right mountain is quite good, plus our twelve acres of land are also over there, if you want to buy wasteland again, buy it under the right mountain." Unexpectedly, my grandfather immediately agreed to buy wasteland.

Yang Yun told her grandfather a few times earlier, but her grandfather didn't agree. But if you think about it, you can understand grandpa's intentions, this time the Li family and the Yang family made money selling grain, and everyone in the village knew about it.

"Uncle Yang, how much wasteland do you say we want to buy this time?" Uncle Li discussed with his grandfather about buying land.

"My family is the same as last time, let's buy six acres of wasteland first, let's come back, and if we have limited manpower, we can't plant too much for a while."

"Well, then I'll be the same as Uncle Yang, and I'll also buy six acres of wasteland, and let Lizheng measure our land together when the time comes." Uncle Li also wanted to buy acres of wasteland with the Yang family.

"Okay, the land of the two families is planted together, so there is a response, and tomorrow I will find Li Zheng to measure twelve acres of wasteland." Grandpa and Uncle Li directly discussed the purchase of wasteland.

"Grandpa, Uncle Li, in addition to buying wasteland under the right mountain, I also want to buy a piece of land by the river and come back."

"Yun girl, most of the fields by the river are sand and stones, how can there be a way to grow food, so don't buy it." Uncle Li was the first to raise objections, he knew very well the situation by the river, and he couldn't imagine what kind of food could be grown after the land by the river was bought.

"Yes, what do you want this girl to do on the land by the river, you can't grow food, you can't grow vegetables, isn't it a waste to buy it?" Grandpa was even more opposed to Yang Yun buying land by the river.

"Grandpa, Uncle Li, listen to me. Let's do salted egg business with the Zhu family, raw eggs are pickled by purchasing, deducting the cost, we don't make much money, I thought that we bought the land by the river, which can be used to raise chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry. ā€

"It turns out that Yun Yatou is planning to use the land by the river to raise poultry, if that's the case, the land by the river is quite suitable for raising these poultry." When Uncle Li heard Yang Yun say, he suddenly realized.

"Chickens, ducks, geese and these poultry can lay eggs, not only eggs can be marinated into salted eggs, and when these poultry grow up, they can also be sold to restaurants, we can make money whether we sell meat or eggs." Let's buy a plot of land by the river and raise poultry. ā€

"Yun girl, raise too much poultry, we don't have so much food, how to raise it." Grandpa thought of raising too many poultry, and there was not so much food to feed at home.

"Let's buy the riverside, including a small part of the river, ducks and geese can eat small fish and shrimp in the river, feed the chickens, we can mix vegetables with bran, and besides, don't we want to buy wasteland again in Youshan, buy the wasteland back, and grow some grain for chickens, ducks and geese to eat."

"The method that Yun Yatou said is also feasible." Uncle Li felt that Yang Yun thought about everything very thoughtfully.

"If you're afraid of farming and raising poultry, we can ask someone to help. There are many people in the village who have to go out to work every year because they don't have much land, and if we can work and make money in our own village, I believe that everyone is unwilling to leave their hometown to work outside. ā€

"Yes, if the hometown can survive, who wants to leave the hometown and go outside." Uncle Li felt the deepest, in order to make more money, in the past, except for spring sowing and autumn harvest at home, he had to follow the villagers to work in other places to earn some money in previous years, and Yang Yun's father was still alive at that time. Uncle Li always went to work in other places with Yang Yun's father, sometimes for several months. (To be continued.) )
