Chapter 9 Corn and Millet

In the following days, Sun Siyuan caught fish a few more times to sell, and the business was not bad. But now everyone gradually doesn't need her films, and many people buy whole fish directly and go back to try to make their own.

And there are also items in the mountains, and a lot of wild things are caught and sold in the town, although the money is not much, but the life is fulfilling.

The litter of rabbits at home was the diced radish that they ate from the beginning, and they were all produced in space. When Sun Siyuan remembered to cut some tender grass for them, they disliked the tender grass and were unwilling to eat it. Sun Siyuan is helpless, these little things have only learned to be picky eaters in a few days!

Fortunately, the crops planted in the yard have begun to grow, Sun Siyuan thought, just use these things in the yard to raise rabbits, anyway, the things in the space, it is better to let the animals eat less.

Aunt Gu saw that her rabbits were all very energetic, and they looked very pleasing to look at, and they boasted a lot. Sun Siyuan remembered it in her heart, and happened to catch another nest of rabbits in the mountains, the big rabbit didn't die, but the leg was broken, Sun Siyuan didn't care about this, and gave it directly to Aunt Gu, if the rabbit's leg wasn't broken, I'm afraid I would have made a hole in the soil and ran away.

The days passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was time to harvest the wheat. There are several families in the village who share a grain drying field, Sun Siyuan looked at the green vegetables in the yard, and could only run to Gu Da Niang's house for help.

In the end, Aunt Gu gave her a pertinent opinion, asking her to hand over the grain in the field to other families to collect, and she just asked for less wheat, anyway, this quarter will not pay the public grain, and both parties can collect more. Sun Siyuan is naturally happy, after all, she and Zhao Youqian are not experts in this area, and the farming is complicated, and there is no hurry to learn.

In the end, the Zhu family took over the job, his family had little land, not much wheat, and the whole family went into battle together, and the action was very neat. After calculating, more than 400 catties per mu of land were collected, which is a normal level.

The catties in this world are not sixteen taels as Sun Siyuan imagined, but ten taels of scales, however, according to Sun Siyuan's feel, this ten taels should be a little more than the ten taels on the earth.

At present, the price of wheat is eight dollars a catty, Sun Siyuan asked the Zhu family to give three taels of silver, and then dragged three hundred catties of wheat over, wishing the family to be honest and duty, unwilling to take such a big advantage, Sun Siyuan couldn't, so he asked the Zhu family to help weave straw mats and steamers and other household uses, and the Zhu family did their best and it was completed soon.

Got the straw mat, Sun Siyuan moved her mind again, it is already March, or it will not be long before it is summer, that is, the hot season that people here say, the bamboo mat in this world has not yet appeared, if there is a bamboo mat, the summer can be much more comfortable, and you can take the opportunity to make a fortune. In other words, does the promotion of bamboo mats count as promoting development? Sun Siyuan was silly herself.

These days, going up the mountain and down the river, Zhao Youqian is estimated to have lost one or two pounds, but with his size, he can't see it at all. The people of the village made a coax, and when they weighed the wheat, they also weighed him, and there were three hundred and twenty catties, and it was four big men who lifted the scales. Everyone laughed, Sun Siyuan watched from the sidelines, laughed non-stop, and said that he would be weighed once a month to urge him to lose weight.

This season's wheat is harvested, and the next season is busy to start planting, and the climate here is good, and the crops can grow several seasons a year. Now it is not a war year, taxes are collected twice a year, once in August, once in December, and in the past, taxes were also collected in April. The Zhu family also specially asked if they needed help with farming, and Sun Siyuan said that they were not in a hurry, and let them be busy with their own first.

Sun Siyuan learned that corn is not popularized in this world, only a few areas are planting, they are all sowing seeds like wheat and rice, and they are not to eat corn, but to grow poles to make forage, so the edible value of corn has not been developed.

In Sun Siyuan's impression, crops such as rice and corn must be planned well in order to increase production.

When I was a child on the earth, I used to watch my parents work in the paddy fields, planting the rice seedlings one by one, and the harvest time was full of rice, and there were no gaps in the field.

I also planted corn with my mother, who used a hoe to dig a hole and threw seeds into the hole. When the corn seedlings are sent out, they are neatly lined up in rows and rows, and if there are two seedlings growing in a pit, they have to pull out the weak one.

Thinking of these, Sun Siyuan also deliberately found a lot of planting books from the space.

After all, the Zhu family was upset, and helped to turn over the six acres of Sun Siyuan's family's land, Sun Siyuan knew, so he filled a basket full of various vegetables grown in the yard and gave them to the Zhu family, and by the way, he also brought two rabbits that were very young but already fat.

There have been many traps added to the mountain, all of which were made by the people in the village after listening to Zhao Youqian's words. The existential crisis that just arrived in this world has passed, and Sun Siyuan certainly doesn't mind having money for everyone to earn together.

She also said a lot of hunting tools, let everyone do it themselves, anyway, there are many wild things in this mountain, and they are not afraid of cutting off the life of wild things.

For this reason, the village also made a special agreement, what kind of mark to make near the trap, so as not to be tricked, how long does it take for a trap to be filled, and the people in the village must enter the mountain in groups. But Zhao is rich and his wife, everyone doesn't have to worry.

Everyone's land has been planted, Sun Siyuan has not moved at all, when Aunt Mu came to chat, she mentioned this matter to her, let her plant early and harvest early, after all, the income in the mountains is unstable, and farming is fundamental. Sun Siyuan thanked Aunt Mu with a smile and said that she had her own plans.

Earlier, when Sun Siyuan went to the town to sell wild animals, he inquired about corn with the guys in the rice shop. The corn here is called green millet, most of them are burned and fed to livestock, only the green millet that is used for seed will grow cobs, and the others are cut early. This guy's wife is from another town, and someone in her mother's family grows green millet, so Sun Siyuan asked him to help and ordered fifty catties of seeds.

Qingsu rarely buys seeds, this guy pays one hundred and fifty yuan, which is much more expensive than wheat, and he is also worried in his heart, if Sun Siyuan doesn't want it, he will run for nothing, and it will take most of the day to come and go.

Sun Siyuan went to the town again, and listened to the little guy say that the things had been bought, but he didn't expect the little guy to move so fast, so he was naturally very happy in his heart, and counted two hundred dollars to him, the little guy didn't expect to get so many benefits, and he said that he would do his best next time he needed to find him.

Fifty catties of seeds, very tired to carry, Sun Siyuan felt that the young man's benefit fee was still less, and when he handed over the seeds to Zhao Youqian, he turned around and bought two catties of pork and sent them to the rice store, saying that he was grateful for his hard work. Originally, the young man was happy for the fifty yuan, but now he received a sincere thanks, and his heart was excited.
