145 pennies a pound

At this time this year, it really hasn't rained a single bit.

Even if there is a canal built by Liu Tiantian, the harvest of Xinghua Village is average.

After harvesting the rice with everyone and paying forty percent of the tax, the whole village seemed to have become wilted.

This year's rice is not enough for the family to eat, and when the harvest is bad, the peasants are the hardest, and it is inevitable that they will starve to death.

At this time, Liu Tiantian was ready to hire people in the village to harvest the sweet potatoes she had planted before.

In the past, no matter how much you said it, everyone thought that the rice could fill a little, and when Liu Tiantian proposed that the sweet potatoes could be eaten, no one was tempted.

But this time, when Liu Tiantian released the news, many people couldn't sit still.

There aren't many people going there Liu Tiantian, after all, the previous thing was quite embarrassing, as long as it is a person with a face, he will not bother Liu Tiantian again and again.

In addition to Liu Tiantian, Uncle Li and Aunt Wang's house is already overcrowded.

"Lao Li, is the sweet potato that the Shen family's daughter-in-law made really edible?"

Uncle Li was startled by so many people coming to the house early in the morning, and when he heard this, he immediately understood what these people meant.

The expression on his face changed, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes as he stared at these people.

"When I asked you to plant, you all thought that Tiantian was false and didn't want to plant, but now it's this time, and the sweet potatoes are going to be harvested, what's the use of you asking this question?"

Uncle Li's face is not good-looking, but in matters where his life is at stake, no one will care that his face is not good-looking.

"Lao Li, isn't there no way. I used to think that Liu Tiantian gave silver, and if she bought land, she could sell grain, but who would have known that food would be so expensive this year! ”

The person who spoke was also very helpless, who would have thought that he could buy a bucket of rice for seven or eight yuan before, but this year, it has risen to two dollars of silver.

Not only that, but even if they had money in their hands, they couldn't buy anything.

One by one, they sighed, but they really felt very worried.

But if there is a way, they won't consider sweet potatoes, something that once ate dead people, but isn't there no way?

People are really hungry, and they can eat the soil, let alone sweet potatoes.

Angry to angry, hearing what a village person said, Uncle Li's face was not good-looking, and he sighed after a long time.

"Sweet potatoes are definitely edible, Tian Tian has taken us to eat them many times, and now ...... I'm afraid there aren't many left in the mountains, what's the use of knowing what to eat? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately picked up: "But Liu Tiantian ......"

"What's wrong with Tian Tian, huh? Lao Wang's family, let me tell you, if you dare to force Tiantian to do something, I just fight my old bones, and I want to make you look good! ”

After Uncle Li finished speaking, he swept around the place, and found that many people had the same expressions as the old Wang's family, and he was immediately angry.

As soon as he lifted the stool, he threw it on the ground, and the expression on his face was very ugly.

"Let me tell you, Tian Tian originally said that she would give you seeds for free, but you didn't plant them, but now you see that everyone has planted them and you want to force others to take them out, there is no such good thing in this world!"

Uncle Li's words made everyone's faces red, but in front of a full stomach, face or anything is not the most important thing.

Bai Li was standing at the back of the crowd, listening to what Uncle Li said, and sighed, but he took two steps forward and squeezed in from the crowd.

"Lao Li, don't be angry about this matter, if you want to blame me, you didn't control these people and didn't let them plant sweet potatoes."

Uncle Li can directly scold these people who don't know what to do, but Bai Li is really a good person.

Compared with Liu Lizheng who was dismissed from the horse in Liujia Village, even if he has some small shortcomings, everything he does is for the people of Xinghua Village, and Uncle Li also respects him very much.

"Bai Lizheng, you are ......"

Things have developed to this point, and Bai Lizheng didn't hide his thoughts, and directly said everything he wanted to say.

"No matter how angry I am, the people in the village can't starve to death, if that sweet potato can really be eaten, can you help me ask the Shen family, this thing...... Can it be sold in the village? ”

"Lizheng!"

As soon as his words came out, some people who were unwilling to take the money said something out of their voice, and Bai Lizheng immediately narrowed his eyes.

"Of course, I'm talking about selling to people who know gratitude, and I don't force it, and I don't want to care about those who are still thinking about taking advantage of it for nothing at this time."

His words instantly put away everyone's careful thoughts, and quietly waited for Uncle Li's answer.

They are all from the same village, and it is impossible for Uncle Li to watch the people in his village starve to death. Number Five

Thinking of what Liu Tiantian had said when he was planting sweet potatoes, he nodded: "Since Li Zheng said so, I'll ask." ”

With the hope of the whole village, Uncle Li and Aunt Wang walked towards the Shen family.

Liu Tiantian has been thinking about how to talk to the people in the village about the sweet potato recently, after all, the sweet potato has been planted, as long as the people in the village don't starve to death, her task will be completed, and she will be more anxious than anyone else.

The blessing system has not appeared for two or three days, since the last time I came back from Liujia Village, it disappeared when Liu Tiantian asked if the blessing had increased, which made Liu Tiantian a little flustered.

Because the blessing system was not there, she moved the sweet potato harvest back slightly.

I didn't expect her to be in a hurry, but someone in a hurry appeared.

"Uncle Li, Aunt Wang, if you have anything to say, what else are you embarrassed about with me?"

Seeing that the two of them hesitated for a long time after coming in and didn't say a word, Liu Tiantian was a little anxious, and asked directly.

Uncle Li has always felt that he is on Liu Tiantian's side, but now that he is asking these words for the people in the village, he always feels a little difficult to speak, and he will inevitably be a little timid.

Aunt Wang had a lot of contact with Liu Tiantian before, and knew what kind of person Liu Tiantian was, looking at Uncle Li's speech, she directly dragged Uncle Li behind her and asked the question that Li was asking them to ask.

"Tiantian, Li Zheng asked us to ask, do sweet potatoes sell?"

What does it mean that someone will send a pillow when drowsiness comes, Liu Tiantian didn't think about how to get the sweet potatoes out, but she didn't expect someone to solve it for herself.

The surprise came so fast that she didn't think of how to answer for a while, but it made Aunt Wang and Uncle Li's hearts beat a little faster.

Even if she thought that Liu Tiantian would definitely be able to agree, but she hadn't heard her answer for a long time, Aunt Wang's heart was a little apprehensive.

"Tiantian, if you don't want to agree......"

Aunt Wang thought about it, and finally said it out loud, but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Liu Tiantian.

"Promise, why don't you agree, this is a good thing, what can't I promise!"

The look on her face was not entangled at all, and when Uncle Li and Aunt Wang didn't react, she directly said her plan.

"The sweet potatoes in the wasteland are also going to be harvested, our family will definitely not be able to harvest them, as long as it is the people in the village, when the time comes, they can sell it to them for a penny and a pound!"

After Liu Tiantian's words were finished, Uncle Li and Aunt Wang didn't react for a long time.

The two of them stared at Liu Tiantian and confirmed it several times, Liu Tiantian said that it was sold for a penny and a catty, and Uncle Li's eyes were moist in an instant.

"Tiantian, it's the people in the village who are sorry for you, you're a good boy!"

Liu Tiantian was a little dazed, looking back at Aunt Wang with the same expression, she didn't know which point the two people were poking at all, and she was a little at a loss.

In the case that a pound of rice costs several dollars, Liu Tiantian's sweet sweet potatoes, as long as they prove to everyone that they can be eaten, even if they can't be sold at the price of rice, they can always be sold for one dollar.

Uncle Li was still thinking that if Liu Tiantian sold it too expensive, he would take out his own house and subsidize some people who really couldn't afford it, where would he have thought that he would hear such an answer.

No matter how poor a family is, a penny or a pound can make the whole family not hungry.

"Uncle Li, just at this price, you go and tell them."

Liu Tiantian understood what Uncle Li meant after thinking about it, but for her, growing sweet potatoes was not to make money, but she didn't have much of an idea.

Uncle Li was not going to go out to talk about it, he thought about it and persuaded Liu Tiantian to go out and talk to those people by himself.

is still worried about the system, Liu Tiantian doesn't quite understand what Uncle Li means, but the other party has already asked for it several times, even if it is in the spirit of respecting the old and loving the young, Liu Tiantian will not refuse Uncle Li's words again and again.

After Uncle Li asked for it several times, she finally compromised, listened to Uncle Li's words, and was ready to go out to talk to the people in the village first, and then think about the system when she came back.

Seeing that she was about to walk out of the gate of the yard, Uncle Li suddenly stopped her.

"Tiantian, don't you have to tell your family?"

I was just happy just now, but after I came out, Uncle Li reacted, Liu Tiantian is just a daughter-in-law, such a big thing, if you don't tell the Shen family, what if the people don't agree.

"Uncle Li, I told my family before, my beautiful mother-in-law and Shen Qianqiu agreed, you don't have to worry."

As early as when she was planting sweet potatoes, Liu Tiantian said her thoughts, and no one in her family objected, so she could say it directly just now.

The expression on Uncle Li's face changed, and he suddenly didn't know what to say.

The people of the Shen family are really good people.

His gaze softened, making Liu Tiantian a little confused.

I thought Uncle Li was strange enough, but when I opened the door and saw the scene outside, Liu Tiantian was even more startled.
