Chapter 212: The joy of the harvest is everywhere

After half a month, the rice in Qinghuai County was harvested one after another.

Su Baiya sent people from the Ministry of Supervision to go to each village to check it roughly, and basically ninety percent of the families had a bumper harvest.

However, there are less than 10% of the households, because the maintenance on weekdays is not enough, the harvest is not satisfactory, but the harvest is also relative, and it is still higher than the harvest of planting chestnut rice and other stones in the past.

In general, the entire Qinghuai County is filled with the joy of a bumper harvest.

If you want to say that the happiest thing is the county, even if the tax in the summer is doubled, the people can easily take it out.

His career will have a bright future.

The people harvested the rice one after another, but it became difficult to sell the rice.

The price of rice is high, and there are too few people who can afford it, and if you lower the price and sell it, you will feel like a loss.

The most important thing is that basically every household in Qinghuai County has planted rice from Tianyu, which means that there is no shortage of food to eat.

It is not very possible to sell it in this county, but some grain merchants from other places feel that it is a business opportunity, and when they go to Qinghuai County to buy rice on a large scale, the price is a little low, and it is ironclad to lose money when it is sold to grain merchants.

So far, Su Baiya does not intend to solve this matter for the people, his original intention is to use rice seeds to make no one in the world go hungry anymore.

Waiting for the large-scale planting of rice in the country in the future, the price of rice will have to fall sooner or later, so that everyone can eat.

According to the 70 percent rice yield, after the rice is hulled, more than 700 catties of rice can be harvested per acre, and even if the price is reduced to five wen per catty, one mu of harvest can also have more than three taels of income, and the people's lives will be very rich.

There is also rice that has been transformed by the sweet spring in the heavenly domain, and the taste is much better than ordinary rice, even if you don't eat it with vegetables, you can eat a bowl of white dry rice.

Although the rice produced in Tianyu tastes good, not many people have discovered this advantage.

First, the common people are poor, and there are not many people who have eaten rice, and the first rice they ate was the rice grown by their own families. I thought that the taste of rice was so good, no wonder those rich people ate rice every day.

The second is that the rich people eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, eat or not eat the staple food, the taste of rice is at most the icing on the cake, and it will be novel at the beginning, not to mention falling in love with eating rice because of the good taste of rice.

In this way, the taste of rice is a bit like chicken ribs, and I am afraid that the only use is to have an advantage when competing with other rice.

Su Baiya would occasionally visit nearby towns to inspect them, and watch the villagers' faces fill with the joy of a good harvest.

She feels that it is worth doing all this, and she also has an ambition, waiting for the rice to be promoted throughout the country and everyone can eat a full stomach, then she will promote vegetables and fruits to improve the quality of life of the people as a whole.

Waiting for the people to have the conditions for material enjoyment, she will bring more things that are only available in later generations to this era.

She also had an unrealistic idea, what would it be like if there were electric lights, steam engines, and the Internet in this era?

It is difficult to achieve these modern technologies, and they may only exist in her dreams.

...

The biggest advantage of rice compared to fruit mushrooms is that it can be stored for a long time, so there is no need to rush to sell it.

This is also the reason why Su Baiya is committed to promoting rice, although some grain merchants from other places have come to Qinghuai County to buy rice at a low price, unless it is urgent to use money, they have chosen to temporarily store it at home.

If you can't sell it, it doesn't matter, just leave it to your family to eat slowly, isn't it good to eat fragrant white rice every day?

Or if you have an opportunity or a way to sell in the future, isn't it good to pull it out of the field to sell it yourself? Why let others make a high difference in the price once.

At the same time, rice has the advantage of being bartered.

Now walking on the streets of Qinghuai County, you can see people everywhere carrying a basket or carrying a basket, which contains rice or rice.

When you need to buy something, you will directly exchange it for rice, which is equivalent to selling rice in disguise.

This can be bitter for those merchants, some merchants who do big business or have good business, and the rice harvested in a day will exceed 1,000 catties, or even 10,000 catties.

Moreover, it is not possible to use rice to buy goods to lower the price, once the price is lowered, the people may go to other places to buy!

Fortunately, these merchants will generally buy goods in other places, and if they give some benefits, they can let the caravan pull the rice to sell in other places, and it will not always be accumulated in the warehouse.

Although it was difficult to sell rice, the people were not in a hurry to sell it, and the grain merchants in other places bought it at a low price for a while, but found that there was no one to sell, so they could only gradually increase the purchase price.

The people no longer have any doubts about the yield of rice, and now no matter what they plant, they do not grow rice to make money.

Since they had tasted the sweetness, there was no reason not to continue planting, and after the people had purchased and processed the rice at home, they went to the cornucopia company to buy rice.

This time, the people did not gather together to buy rice, although there were many people, but with the experience of the last time, it would be much easier for the company's guys to get up.

The villagers of Zhuwo Village and Diowo Village, seeing that people were coming into the village one after another to buy rice, put their goods outside the company to sell.

In the past half a month, in Qinghuai County, I am afraid that there is no place where the façade can compare to the land outside the cornucopia company.

This is basically a place where every household in the county will pass by, and the rice bags planted by the people for one season are a little more sufficient, and the desire to buy is stronger, and the stalls outside the company are basically patronized.

Seeing this, the surrounding merchants and merchants also transported their goods to the outside of the cornucopia company to set up stalls, and a small bazaar was formed.

Su Baiya suddenly thought of the trade fairs or night markets in the future, compared to the foreign co-workers, all of which were short-lived to lead the flow of people to a fixed location.

Su Baiya did not make any restrictions on this, the only requirement is that after the stall is closed, the vicinity of the stall must be kept clean and tidy, otherwise it will be blacklisted and prohibited from setting up stalls.

...

Most of the people chose to sign a loan contract for the rice seeds sold last season, but now it is difficult to sell rice or rice, so they have chosen to use rice of the same value to repay the loan.

Although the price of rice will be reduced a lot anyway, Su Baiya still did not reduce the price.

First, there is no need to negotiate this price with the people, and second, she has already found a good market for rice, which is Songtao.

Of the few shops that Pu Wu helped buy, he would set aside one to sell rice.

There are many rich people in Songtao, and there are many people who eat rice, so there should be no problem with sales.
