In fact, all the routines are for the promotion of grain varieties, and it is only because the people are too careful about the fields and outputs that they have no choice but to use this method of retreating into advance.

Deliberately begging for favors is to make the people feel that this thing is difficult to buy.

deliberately cold-faced people, just to show good things without worrying about selling them......

However, after all, making a show is just a play, and the real purpose is to promote the grain species, and at this time, the old man has already sent his usual money, and he is obviously extremely convinced of the high yield of the grain seeds.

The old man looked at Li Fu with a blank eye.

Li Yun and Li Shimin also looked at Li Fu quietly.

I saw Li Fu pick up a pen, open a booklet on the counter left and right, his face was still pretending to be cold, and he said slowly: "Since I have received your money, this shopkeeper will naturally not take the money and do it, but the rules still have to be followed......"

And the rules?

The corners of the old man's mouth trembled, for fear that he would have to pay again.

Fortunately, Li Fu did not ask for money, but said very seriously: "According to the rules, you must first conduct an investigation to sell divine food, old man, let me ask you, how many people are in your family?" ”

The old man didn't react for a while, and he didn't wake up until someone pushed him next to him, and hurriedly replied: "Four, there are four in my family." ”

After speaking, his face was worried, and he stood on the counter and looked up at Li Fu, but everyone who came to line up knew that this store had rules, and now asking about the number of people in the family was the rule before selling divine food.

But seeing that Li Fu nodded, he took up the pen and wrote some 'four' words on the booklet, and after writing it, he blew it, and then asked: "There are four people in the family, how much is the adult?" Whether it's a man or a woman, please tell me. ”

The old man hurriedly said: "I am the old man when I am an adult, and the remaining three are dolls, two male babies and one female baby, the oldest has just turned nine years old, and the youngest is only four years old." ”

Li Fu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "Is it your grandson?" ”

The old man rubbed his hands and said a little shyly: "Great-grandson." ”

The ancients got married early, and they could be grandfathers at the age of forty, and this old man is at least sixty this year, and according to the child's age, it should really be his great-grandchildren.

However, Li Fu became curious and couldn't help asking, "What about your son?" What about your grandson? Why don't you report it? Instead, only three great-grandchildren were reported? ”

Four questions in a row, coherently, these four questions are also the questions of the people in the house, and even Li Yun and Li Shimin, who are not far away, are confused.

But seeing the old man sigh sadly, he just sighed and then closed his mouth, the old man smiled on his face, and said again and again: "I'm not too old, I can support my great-grandchildren." ”

Just one answer, and the needles in the house could be heard.

Obviously, the old man's son and grandson are gone, leaving only three weak dolls who have not yet reached adulthood, and as for why the son and grandson died, the people of this era can guess the reason.

Either you will die of poverty and starvation......

Either poverty, sickness, and death......

There is often a saying in the world that white-haired people send black-haired people, which is actually the most painful thing in this era.

However, the old man just sighed, obviously he was used to the sadness of losing his son and grandson, the old man was full of smiles, clearly encouraging himself, although he was very old, he still had three children to support, he couldn't let himself fall into grief and couldn't extricate himself, he had to cheer up to keep alive.

When a person lives to be over 60 years old, he doesn't really care much about dying, and the reason why he tries hard to persist in living is nothing more than the responsibility of supporting future generations on his shoulders.

The pen in Li Fu's hand couldn't be put down for a long time.

In the corner, Li Yun and Li Shimin silently watched how he would choose.

After a full cup of tea, I saw Li Fu take a deep breath and said: "According to the rules, the divine grain is only sold for adults, and an adult man can buy 800 grains of grain, this grain is called corn, 500 grains are about half a catty, if you can serve it finely, you can plant four points of dry land, if there is a paddy field irrigated by a canal, then 800 miles of corn only need three points of land." ”

"Only three points of land?" The old man opened his mouth, his expression was obviously a little lost, and he muttered, "How much output can be produced in three points?" How can I feed three children......"

Saying that, he couldn't help but raise his head, and looked at Li Fu pitifully: "Shopkeeper, it's good, can you sell four seeds to my old man, my family obviously has a population of four." ”

Li Fu glanced at him, his face tried to remain unchanged, and he hardened his heart: "No, the rules are the rules, corn can only be sold to adult people, this thing is obtained from overseas, the total amount is too scarce, in order to ensure that every seed is not wasted, it can only be sold to adult strong men, and your three great-grandchildren are not yet adults, so they are not eligible to buy corn seeds." ”

The old man couldn't help but say: "I am full of strength, one person can do the work of four people, and the seeds of four people are only more than one acre, and the old man and I can plow the field by myself without borrowing cows." ”

A trace of unbearability flashed in Li Fu's eyes, and he subconsciously said, "You still pull pears at such an old age?" ”

The old man avoided answering, but said with a longing face: "Shopkeeper, okay?" Sell me four seeds, and I promise not to waste a single seed. ”

Li Fu obviously hesitated, but in the end he shook his head ruthlessly, spit out two words with difficulty, and said softly: "Can't!" ”

The old man suddenly sighed bitterly.

"Wait......"

At this time, Li Yun finally couldn't help it, and suddenly walked out of the corner, he walked all the way to the counter, looked at Li Fudao with a smile: "Shopkeeper, I remember that there are still some rules in your store, right?" Although corn can only be sold to strong men for labor, but there is no such restriction on another kind of divine food, since this old man is on the line, why not sell him another kind of divine food. ”

Li Fu was stunned for a moment, then understood the hint in Li Yun's eyes, and hurriedly said, "Yes, there is another kind!" ”

He turned his head to look at the old man, and said in a slightly hurried tone: "Old man, corn is not accommodating, your family has only one adult, and you can only buy half a catty of grain, but you still have three dolls, but you can sell thirty high-yield sweet potatoes, this thing is planted without picking the field, even children can wait to survive, so there is no threshold, I don't know if the old man is willing to buy it?" ”

"High-yielding sweet potatoes?"

The old man's eyes lit up suddenly.

The store has been open for more than half a year, and the people are already familiar with the types of divine food sold in the store, and when they heard that they could sell him sweet potatoes, the old man's face was full of surprise.

Sweet potatoes were rarely sold out before, and there was only one reason for this, and when Wen Zhongzi returned, he brought back even less, so Li Yun strictly controlled the sale of sweet potatoes, and basically only sold them to those high-door valves, which was not for the people, but that the high-door valves were more capable of making the grain play the greatest role.

If you sell it to a poor family, you may have an accident at any point, such as one day when you suddenly run out of food, and you may eat sweet potatoes when you are very hungry.

Another reason is storage problems, and it is difficult for poor families to keep food for the winter.

Li Fu suddenly picked up his pen, and first wrote a word of eight hundred on the book, which represented the sale of a copy of corn seeds, and the buyer was an adult like an old man.

Then the pen turned, followed by the word thirty, but this was sold to the three dolls in the old man's family, and none of the dolls had ten sweet potato places.

After writing all this, Fang looked up at the old man and said: "Two seeds, the price is eight yuan, and you also have to pay the technical guidance fee of the consistent money, and there will be a special little gentleman to guide you in the spring of next year." ”

The price is high enough!

The seed money is eight times, and the technical guidance fee is the same money, and if you add the consistency that Li Fu asked for before, it is exactly the total amount of credit loans that each person gets from the bank.

However, although the price is high, it can't open the back door for this old man in full view, otherwise it will break the means of promoting the divine food, which is very unfavorable to the overall promotion situation.

This money must be put away first.

Fortunately, the old man's mind was all on the seeds, and he didn't show distress from beginning to end. I heard that I needed to pay nine pieces of money, so I left the money bag on the counter without even thinking about it.

And at this moment, a guy ran out from behind the counter, carefully carrying two pockets in his hands.

One of the pockets was small, containing only 800 corn seeds, and the other was slightly larger, but it only contained 30 sweet potatoes.

"Good, good, good......"

"Wow......"

The old man opened his voice again and again, and he was already a little incoherent with joy, and the guy first handed the corn to the old man, but he still carried the big bag, and said with a smile: "Old man, this thing is heavy, I see that you are not young, how about helping you send it home?" ”

"No, no, no, no!"

The old man waved his hand again and again, and said with joy on his face: "Don't look at the old man's age, I still have a lot of strength on my body, this weight is no problem at all, little brother, you just give it to the old man." ”

The guy was a little helpless, and he didn't know what to do with his pockets.

"I'll do it......"

Suddenly, a gentle voice came from the corner, someone squeezed over and reached out to grab the bag, the guy was stunned at first, and then his mouth trembled, and his arm couldn't help but give it away, and the pocket was handed over.

Li Shimin grabbed his pocket and put it behind his back, the thirty sweet potatoes were actually quite heavy, and Li Shimin's body shook obviously.

The emperor looked at the old man with a smile, and Wen Sheng said again: "Old man, let me help you send the seeds to your home, I have been studying for so many years, but today I have a lesson from you in front of the store, I should give you a hand, which can be regarded as a thank you for your teaching." ”

The old man was slightly stunned, and his face was obviously a little hesitant.

Li Yun next to him suddenly laughed and said, "I'll also take a trip, and teach you how to grow sweet potatoes by the way." ”

These words were more effective than the emperor's words, and the old man turned his head almost instantly, and said in surprise: "Do you know how to grow divine food?" ”

Li Fu took the opportunity to speak behind the counter, and said with deep meaning: "You can guess correctly, this is a big gentleman, my store sells divine food seeds, and at the same time I have to charge a technical guidance fee, at the beginning of spring next year, there will be a little gentleman to come to guide, but those little gentlemen are all disciples, and this big gentleman is a teacher......

The old man kept rubbing his hands happily.
