The next day, Gu Kaiming asked the family to go to each house to inform, and they all went outside Gu's house to discuss things.

Suddenly, when he heard the news, many people didn't come back to their senses, but he called someone, so there must be something important to discuss, so they all hurriedly put down their work and went to Gu's house, and there were circles of people outside.

Even if Gu Pingyong did those things, the people in the village still trusted Gu Kaiming, he had worried a lot about Tongxin Village over the years, these people saw it in their eyes, and their trust in him came from the bottom of their hearts, and it had nothing to do with Gu Pingyong.

A chair was placed at the door of Gu's house, and Tiancheng came out with Gu Kaiming on his back and asked him to sit on the chair with a thin quilt on his face.

"I have something important to say about bringing you here today, and then you will listen to me, and if you don't understand something, you will ask later."

He cleared his throat, "The past two years have not been smooth, I feel very uncomfortable, the year before last was an earthquake, last year there was hail and drought, this day is really unbearable." ”

"These days, I have been thinking, how much food is left in the villagers' homes, whether they can tide over the difficulties, whether they can wait until the summer threshing to renew the food, this one is not careful, some people will be hungry, no one can complain, just blame God for not raining."

"I've waited for so long, it's finally raining, and now the soil has been drenched, this year's cultivation should not be a problem, Dezheng came to me yesterday, the Lin family is willing to take the new grain they grow for everyone to plant, some things will have to go to the ground soon, and I came to you today to discuss this matter."

"Life is difficult, everyone has to think about it, and you can't point to anyone to be this good person, the Lin family can't supply one of our villages even if they collect tens of thousands of catties of food, and now it's raining, the Lin family is outstanding in virtue and is willing to take out the seeds for everyone to plant together."

"This is their kindness, you all have to keep it in mind, if you are willing to plant potatoes on a part of the land at home, you can go to the Lin family to get some seeds, if you don't want to, don't force you."

"I called you here today to talk about this matter, now no one's life is having a good time, the Lin family also said that they don't want everyone's money, but you have to remember that this is someone's kindness, don't think that's what people should do, but anyone who has a heart should also remember this friendship, and he will repay him if he has the opportunity in the future."

After he finished speaking, the people below were all muttering in a low voice, and someone said, "Old man, we are looking at the grain grown by the Lin family is very good, and the harvest is so old, but we don't know if those things can be eaten." ”

"If we just take out the land and plant these things, we won't be able to grow many other crops, and if we find that it is useless in the end, then we will not suffer?"

Gu Kaiming knew that someone would think like this, so he would say that if he didn't want to, he wouldn't force them.

In his opinion, the Lin family is willing to give up these good things, which is already very difficult for ordinary people to do, everyone has selfishness, if they have good things in their own family and others don't have them, then they can be sold at a price, but if they are everywhere, is it still worth it?

He had already eaten all the potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn that the Lin family had brought over, and each of them tasted good, all of which he had never seen before.

He also asked Gu Pingzhang carefully, these crops are indeed convenient to grow and produce more, famine years, this is a good thing to save lives.

The Lin family kindly took out his own things, and he didn't accept the cash, but he felt aggrieved to be so suspicious by everyone.

He didn't speak, and someone followed the man's words, "That's right, we have a total of eight acres of land at home, and the crops we usually grow are not enough to eat, if we take out some land to plant this, in case we don't catch anything later, won't we starve the family to death?" ”

"Old man, I don't know if the Lin family is willing to give some of the things they received to everyone, so that we can all taste the taste, so that we can make a decision."

Hearing these words, Gu Kaiming was a little moved, patted the handrail, looked at the people below and said, "Now that everyone is short of food, those seeds for you are also food, can't the Lin family keep them for themselves?" Why do you have to take it out and let you plant it? ”

"I just said, if you are willing, you will go to the Lin family to get it, and if you don't want to, I won't force you, people have good intentions, but you are so suspicious, if you don't believe it, you don't have to go, so you don't have to blockade people's hearts."

Gu Kaiming stood up from the chair tremblingly, and Tian Yuan hurriedly brought him the crutches, "Grandpa, slow down." ”

Gu Kaiming leaned on crutches and glanced at the villagers under the steps, "That's all I have to say today, if you want, go if you want, the Lin family will naturally teach you how to plant, if you don't want to, don't go to the disdain." ”

He turned around and went in on crutches, Gu Pingzhang and the others also went back, and the villagers scattered to discuss with each other.

Seeing that the Lin family had collected so many things, the people in the village were envious, but now they were a little hesitant to let them take out their own land and plant it.

Everyone thinks so, it's good to look at, but if it comes out and it's not of much use, wouldn't it be a waste of your own land?

If it's okay to say that you have some grain in stock, and now you see that the granary is empty, and you have to wait for the threshing of grain in July to eat, if you take out your family's precious land and plant some useless things at this critical time, how can you live?

But what Old Man Gu said just now was right, it was not easy for the Lin family to take out so many things, and people could still keep them to fill their stomachs, why should they take them out?

So they can't say anything at this time, as long as they still care about their faces, they are embarrassed to say that they will let the Lin family take some out and taste them.

Some people are more daring and decide to try it after discussing it with their families.

Anyway, when I ploughed last autumn, I didn't plant crops, and I couldn't grow rice in the soil, so it was a waste to leave it empty, so it was a big deal to plant some sorghum rice and millet.

Even if those things are not so useful, but they are so old, they look very useful, who cares about the taste during the famine, just a large amount.

The Lin family is now willing to take out the seeds and plant them for everyone, which means that they know that this is not poisonous, otherwise they would not have the courage.

Since there is no poison, what are you afraid of? That thing can be produced much more than millet, and when it comes to hunger, it must be more useful.
