"Yes, this little favor should help." With Uncle Zhou taking the lead, the villagers remembered the Yang family's care for the villagers in the past, and the workshop recruited almost all the girls in the village to work and make money. Now someone took the lead in the work, and other villagers also responded, all of them picked up tools, rolled up their sleeves and went down to the field to help dig up sweet potatoes.
Yang Yun looked at a group of villagers, helping to dig sweet potatoes on the wasteland, and her heart was already happy, with the help of these villagers, the remaining two acres of sweet potatoes could be dug in half a day. Yang Yun turned her head and gave Zhou Lizheng a bright smile, this Zhou Lizheng was really good.
Zhou Li was nodding to Yang Yun, and everyone knew it.
"Uncles and uncles, everyone will help dig sweet potatoes, and after dinner in the evening, everyone will go to Uncle Li's house, and we will definitely explain to you in detail the planting method of sweet potatoes." When the two families decided to make the planting method of sweet potatoes public, they thought that the whole village would definitely come to ask, and Yang Yun changed the place where the villagers gathered to Uncle Li's house, which was also discussed with Uncle Li earlier. The Yang family had too many jars and rabbits, and some secrets could not be known to the villagers, so it was most appropriate to make an appointment at Uncle Li's house.
"Okay, I must go to Brother Li's house in the evening."
"We'll definitely go." When the villagers heard Yang Yun, they promised everyone that they would inform everyone about the planting method of sweet potatoes in the evening, and everyone worked more diligently, as if these acres of sweet potatoes were their own grain.
With the help of villagers digging sweet potatoes, Yang Yun and her family are only responsible for loading the sweet potatoes into bamboo baskets and then pulling them home to the cellar for storage on a four-wheeled cart. The Yang family and the Li family each got two acres of sweet potatoes from the wasteland, and Uncle Li first pulled the sweet potatoes from the first two acres of wasteland back to the Yang family's cellar, and then pulled the sweet potatoes from the last two acres to the Li family.
Yang Yun was happy all day long, there are many people and great strength, today almost the whole village came to help dig sweet potatoes, four acres of wasteland sweet potatoes, it only took one day to harvest all the sweet potatoes. In the evening, the two families went to Uncle Li's house after dinner, waiting for the whole village to come and ask about the planting method of sweet potatoes.
Yang Yun has discussed with Uncle Li and Grandpa at the dinner table, and they will answer the questions of the villagers, although it is the planting and manure method that Yang Yun came up with, but the sweet potatoes in the last few acres of wasteland are all taken care of by Uncle Li and Grandpa, weeding, insect removal, fertilization, watering These activities Yang Yun rarely participates, and grandpa They are the people who have the most right to speak.
Yang Yun also told her grandfather that she would tell the villagers how the two families were making manure, and that the method of making rabbit manure at home would be kept secret. At night, the courtyard of Uncle Li's house was crowded with countless villagers, and everyone was waiting for Uncle Li and Grandpa to reveal to them the planting method of high-yield sweet potatoes.
Uncle Li and grandpa are explaining in detail to everyone, the method of manure, in fact, the most important part of planting sweet potatoes is to sow sweet potatoes with sweet potato rattan in the supply of fertilizer, but it saves sweet potato seeds, and the final increase in grain production still lies in geology, and fertilizer, of course, high-quality seeds are the most congenital conditions.
Grandpa and Uncle Li gave the villagers answers all the questions about the cultivation of sweet potatoes. Wait until late at night, the villagers reluctantly bid farewell to Uncle Li and Grandpa, tonight's symposium in Li's house, they were too shocked, they have planted the land for so many years, and tonight they know that the original farming, there is so much knowledge in it. Tonight's symposium has made them gain a lot, and they really listened to your words and won ten years of cultivation.
The villagers also said that they would buy the sweet potatoes of the two families and go back to them as seeds, because when they helped dig the sweet potatoes today, they saw that the sweet potatoes produced by the two families were large and looked healthy. The two families are naturally willing to sell the sweet potatoes to the villagers, otherwise where can they eat thousands of catties of sweet potatoes, and in the end they will have to sell part of it. The villagers do not need to buy too many sweet potatoes, as long as they plant a small amount of sweet potatoes at the beginning of spring, and when the sweet potatoes grow rattan, they can be cut and planted in the ground.
The next day, the two families went to the field early, took the sweet potato vines back home, and sent some of them to Uncle Wednesday's house, where they exchanged them for cattle to plough the land, and the remaining sweet potato vines were divided equally between the two families and brought home to feed the pigs. Tender sweet potato vines and sweet potato leaves are good pig food when cooked.
Another day later, Uncle Li and Uncle Wednesday borrowed an ox and ploughed four acres of wasteland, and Yang Yun and his children were behind the rake, picking up small sweet potatoes that had been turned out of the ground. It took three days to plow four acres of wasteland, and in these three days, Yang Yun picked up four baskets of small sweet potatoes on four acres of wasteland, which were washed and boiled with sweet potato vines for pigs to eat.
Yang Yun has been working during the day these days, lighting oil lamps at night to draw the design of the headdress. During the day, I have to get up early and go to the workshop to open and close the door, and I have to spend some time every day to arrange the things in the workshop, including which head flowers to make first every day, which head flowers to deliver first, and to inspect them, these things must be arranged in advance.
Yang Yun now in addition to drawing her own design drawings of the headdress, but also encourage the girls in the workshop to learn to draw, encourage the girls to learn to draw the design of the headdress, who draws the design of the headdress in the future will be adopted by the workshop, and the workshop will pay for each design drawing to buy and produce.
Ancient women's headdresses are worn according to the occasions attended, and the headdresses can be classified as: hairpins, hairpins, hairpins, Huasheng, Huadian, Bu Shao, and comb grates. Women of different ages have to wear different headdresses, and Yang Yun's future development plan for "Huahua World" will not be limited to just making headflowers. "Flower World" will become a workshop for making all accessories in the future.
At the appointed time in the five days, Sister Li sent someone to Yang's house to pick up forty head flowers. Yang Yun took these forty head flowers home a day in advance, and inlaid them with beads, agate, and jade by herself. It turned out that a new model would be produced in five days, but this time the two new models were produced at the same time, Yang Yun asked Sister Li's people to take it back together, and Lishang Pavilion put the style on the shelves in different time periods.
"Grandpa, the wasteland in the back mountain has now finished harvesting sweet potatoes, do you plan to grow grain on the wasteland?" Yesterday, four acres of wasteland had been plowed, and the wasteland was empty, Yang Yun asked her grandfather when she was having breakfast.
"Those few acres of wasteland belong to your Uncle Li, although he gave us the land to plant sweet potatoes in the spring, but the sweet potatoes have been harvested, and it is best to ask you Uncle Li about the wasteland."
"That's right, the wasteland is indeed not our family's, let's ask Uncle Li when you have time." Grandpa is reasonable, this matter really has to be asked Uncle Li.
After eating, Grandpa went to the wasteland on the right mountain to see the wheat, these days are ready to harvest the wheat, to drain the water of the wheat field first, when there is no water in the field, it is better to tie the wheat. Yang Yun went to the workshop and the door opened, so she ran to Li's house to find Uncle Li, who was just about to go to the field.
"Uncle Li, the four acres of wasteland in Houshan have been harvested sweet potatoes, do you plan to plant any food?"
"In the past, the wasteland was all about wheat, and after harvesting the grain, we would grow some vegetables or something, and sometimes the land would be empty, and after autumn, there would be no suitable grain to grow in the field, because in winter, most of the plants would freeze to death."
"Uncle Li, if you can trust me, the four acres of wasteland in the back mountain, our two families will still grow food together."
"Of course I believe in Xiao Yun's, the wasteland in the back mountain, if you want to, you can take it and plant it, there are not many plants to plant in autumn."
"If you want to plant in the fall, you can still plant something, and I plan to plant mustard greens in the wasteland of the back mountain."
"Yun girl, mustard greens are a little astringent, a little bitter, where will anyone eat mustard greens."
"Mustard greens are a good thing, why don't you go to the field first, Uncle Li, and then go to my house when you are free, and we will discuss the wasteland at that time." The matter of planting mustard greens is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words, and Uncle Li should also go to Youshan to see the wheat field, and this matter will be discussed by the two families when they are free in the evening.
"Okay, when we're free in the evening, we'll discuss the wasteland." After Uncle Li finished talking to Yang Yun, he went to Youshan with a hoe to see the wheat, and Yang Yun went directly back to Yang's house to be busy with family affairs.
After dinner in the evening, Uncle Li's family went to Yang's house to sit down, Yang Yun helped everyone make some tea, and also got some snacks to entertain everyone, and the two families sat in the courtyard of Yang's house and discussed the matter of the wasteland in the back mountain.
"Yun girl, you said in the morning that you would plant mustard greens on the wasteland in the back mountain, do you think anyone will want these mustard greens?" Uncle Li asked about what Yang Yun asked him in the morning.
"Of course, no one wants to sell mustard greens alone, but if we pickle mustard greens into side dishes, there are definitely people who want them." In her previous life, Yang Yun would pickle mustard greens with her mother in winter, but the mustard greens grown at home in the past were all planted in summer and harvested in winter. There are many types of mustard, and now it is autumn, so you can only choose the kind of mustard that is sown in autumn and harvested in spring.
"You girl, how do you know how to pickle mustard greens?" Grandpa heard Yang Yun say that he wanted to pickle mustard greens, so he asked her.
"Grandpa's pickled mustard greens are the same as pickled radish, what's so difficult, the wasteland is empty, let's plant the mustard until the next spring to harvest, and then we can plant sweet potatoes or other grains in the spring, so that the wasteland will not be empty and wasted."
"Okay, I'll listen to Yunya, you say plant mustard greens, plant mustard greens." Uncle Li trusts Yang Yun very much now, Yang Yun can succeed every time he comes up with an idea, Uncle Li naturally will not object to planting mustard in the wasteland, and besides, it is better to plant mustard in the wasteland than to leave it empty.
When the grandfather saw that Uncle Li agreed to plant mustard greens on the wasteland, he shook his head helplessly, his granddaughter was too capable of tossing people. Dabao's father is willing to take the wasteland to grow mustard, and grandpa naturally doesn't say anything anymore, anyway, these jobs are done by the two families together, as long as there is a harvest in the future, and his granddaughter does have some ability, grandpa is still willing to believe Yang Yun.
