Chapter 412: A Difficult Choice
Lin Changyuan saw her embarrassment, pulled her to the side and asked her in a low voice, "What are you thinking?" Tell your dad about it. ”
Siqi pursed his lips, but he still told him honestly, Lin Changyuan was a little hesitant after hearing it.
"If we harvest early now, it will really be no harvest, this year has been hail, if we harvest early, these things will be completely destroyed, if this new thing can not be harvested much, then how will our family live? Are you sure? ”
Siqi nodded very solemnly, "Dad, don't worry, I'm sure, these things will definitely be very good to harvest, and they are all drought-tolerant, if there is a drought this year, they can also harvest a lot, Dad, think about it, if there is a drought this year, plus the hailstorm at the beginning of the year, what food will the villagers have to live?" ”
"Last year, there was an earthquake, life was already difficult, at this time we have to take risks, we harvest the crops in the field early, plant these, if there is no drought, it is okay, everyone can live their own life, if there is a drought, these things we plant can save lives."
Every family has some vacant land, if you tell the villagers at this time to let everyone give up the vacant land and plant these, of course it is enough to plant, but there is no beginning and no end at this time, who will listen to you?
Land is the lifeblood of croppers, and no one can treasure it, so this method will definitely not succeed without thinking about it.
The only way is for my family to suffer a little loss first, harvest these previous crops, and then plant them, and see what the second half of this year will be.
In ancient times, if there was a drought, many people would starve to death, and she felt panicked when she thought about it.
If you can make some preparations at this time, so that the surrounding villagers will not suffer, this is also a good deed.
Of course, this is also good for the Lin family, if at such a critical moment, the Lin family stands up and saves everyone's lives, no matter what happens in the future, the Lin family's position in Tongxin Village will be stable.
Even if Old Man Gu still let Gu Pingyong take power, with Gu Pingyong alone, he couldn't make the Lin family unable to survive in Tongxin Village.
You can't do things in front of you, you have to look farther, now no one can say for sure, now seeing that Old Man Gu is more important to Gu Second Grandfather, but everyone knows that Gu Pingyong is the boss of the Gu family, people at this time value this more, maybe they will change their minds in the future?
If you don't do more things to prepare now, Gu Pingyong will definitely target their family when he takes power in the future, and it will be too late to find a way when the time comes.
Lin Changyuan felt that she was very reasonable, and nodded, "This matter has to be discussed with your grandparents, everyone has to listen to it, if everyone agrees, we can do this, son, we can't do this nonsense, what is produced in the field is the rations of our family." ”
Siqi said, "Dad, I understand this, otherwise let me tell my family, I can understand it better." ”
"But ......"
Siqi sighed, "Dad, I've grown up, what's wrong with being smarter, it's okay, and I can't always let you stand ahead." ”
Lin Changyuan thought about it, the fifth child is different from before, he was afraid that his son would be bullied before, but now he has less worries.
"Okay, you go ahead and say it."
Siqi said his thoughts, and Linde was deep in thought, "Now the wheat and rapeseed in the field have not grown well, so harvest them now?" It's a shame to get something. ”
Siqi said very seriously, "Grandpa, it seems a pity to harvest the grain now, but we are here to free up the land to grow more useful things, these grains have been hailstormed this year, and they can't grow well, even if they are left for harvest in May, it won't be much, and there are not many more things than now." ”
"But if we don't vacate the land and plant these things, then our losses this year will be great, the fifth uncle got back a lot of seeds this time, this corn alone can be planted on seven or eight acres of land, as well as sweet potatoes and potatoes, these two together need five or six acres of land to plant, to take out so much vacant land, where can you not harvest the previous crops?"
Lin Dezheng still hesitated, he had planted the land all his life, and the croppers would not harvest the crops early until they had to, and he could harvest a little more, and now he had to make a decision, pull out these crops before they were ready, for him it was like cutting his heart with a knife, it really hurt a lot.
But what Siqi said also made sense, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
The corn family had already planted some of it, and there was more than one acre of land, and he thought that those would be enough, but who knew that if he got back so many seeds, he would have to take out seven or eight acres of land to plant.
Before we saw the harvest, we had harvested the crops early, and what if we didn't produce much in the future?
This sweet potato is the same, he only saw the planting, but he didn't see the harvest, but the potato did, this thing can be varied, and the harvest is quite large.
He thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, let's grow more of these potatoes, and the land is still enough, and the rest will be talked about later." ”
If this was usual, Siqi would have responded, and she didn't want to talk back to her elders, but this matter was very important, and Lin Dezheng continued to say it if she didn't agree.
"Grandpa, the harvest of potatoes is the worst among these, if you want to plant sweet potatoes and corn, these two can harvest a lot, grandpa, I beg you, you can believe me once, these things can really save lives, if there is a drought this year, our whole village will have to rely on these jobs."
She looked at Lin Changyuan again, "Dad, you can help me talk about it, these are really good things, and they can't be wasted." ”
Lin Changyuan persuaded a few words on the side, but Lin Dezheng was not so easy to move, he was the head of the Lin family, this matter was too risky, he didn't dare to come nonsense.
Siqi begged for Wu's side again, "Grandma, what I said is true, these are really good things, otherwise the fifth uncle would not let people send them back." ”
Wu Shi believed in Siqi, she thought about the previous things, which one was not Siqi making a decision? This girl seems to say casually, but in fact, they are very useful, if it weren't for Siqi, their family would not raise silkworms and sheep, and now the income is good.
"Old man, let's just listen to him, I think this girl is right, you can't harvest much by guarding these crops, it's better to take the risk of planting these things, if there is a real drought this year, you won't be able to harvest much grain, maybe you will really have to live on these things then."
