"And this kind of tool? How did I not know? Chen Xiangyang asked with some surprise.

"There's more you don't know, it's better to be a little girl." Aunt Chen quipped on the side.

"This is really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, one generation is stronger than the next, we are all old." Chen Xiangyang laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Uncle Chen, Aunt Chen, don't make fun of me, I'll study it in the next two days, so that the villagers can use it and save everyone's labor."

"Okay, take off the rice early, take it off early, sell it early, and sell it at a good price." Chen Xiangyang couldn't wait to see what kind of tool it was.

"Then we'll go first."

Mu Xiu and the others returned home, tired for a day, and fell asleep after washing.

Early in the morning, Mu Xiu was woken up by the sound in the yard, she stretched, put on her clothes, and walked out, and saw Mu Shui and Chen Xuhui moving things to the ox cart.

"Xiu, you're up, let's go eat first, let's put sesame peanuts in it first." Mu Shui said.

Mu Xiu saw that she didn't need her help to see this, so she rubbed her eyes and went to wash and eat breakfast first, and when she finished cleaning up, the ox cart here was already loaded. This time, a total of 120 catties of sesame seeds were harvested, leaving 10 catties for home consumption, 700 catties of peanuts, 100 catties left, and the rest were all sold, and 100 catties of soybeans were also loaded.

Chen Xuhui and Mu Shui drove the ox cart, Mu Xiu followed behind them on a bicycle, and the three of them walked towards the grain station.

At this time, there are not many people at the grain station, because most of everyone's rice has not yet been drilled, and Mu Xiu and her plants are also relatively rare crops, and there is a separate acceptance channel.

Only once a year in May and June to pay the public grain, the autumn harvest only needs to pay 60 catties of tax grain per mu of land, the rest can be sold to the grain station according to the market price, if there is no grain, that is 12 yuan per mu of land.

This is the second time Mu Xiu has come to the grain station, and unlike the first time, only a few people have come here with food, and there are more staff at the grain station than those who come to pay the grain tax.

"Collect sesame seeds over there." Chen Xuhui pointed to a row of tables in the distance, on which a sign was erected that read, "Collect sesame seeds." ”

Mu Xiu came this time to prepare to hand over soybeans, soybeans are more expensive than rice, because they can be made into soybean oil, and one hundred and twenty catties of rice is equal to the value of one hundred catties of soybeans.

"Let's pay the grain tax first." Mu Xiu pointed to the place on the other side that said "Harvest Grain".

Chen Xuhui and Mu Shui nodded, and one of them picked up a bag of soybeans and walked over.

Two bags of soybeans were placed on the scale, and the man sitting at the long table opened the sack, saw the soybeans inside, raised his head and looked at them in surprise, then reached out and grabbed a small handful, looked at it carefully, and then put his hand in and grabbed a large handful, and then put the big and small handfuls of soybeans into his pocket blatantly, and then slowly registered a number to the book on the table.

Mu Xiu glanced at his pockets, the pockets on both sides were already full, this grain collector collected a day's grain, and he could get a few catties into his own pocket.

"Here's the receipt." The man tore a slip and handed it to Mu Shui.

After paying the grain tax, Mu Xiu and the others went to the place where the sesame seeds were collected, and the same grain station worker at the square table stood up, and it is rare to see products like sesame seeds that are not specified in the season.

The purchase price in the grain station is the same, no matter where the grain station is changed, the price is the same, but the price of peanuts and sesame seeds is still very flexible.

"How did you come up with the idea of planting these?" The grain collector asked with some curiosity.

Because she has been harvesting for a few days, basically no one grows sesame seeds, think about it, everyone only thinks about planting rice and wheat at this time, who will be full of leisure to plant sesame soybeans, this harm He has no harvest for a few days, watching the people who harvest other crops can all be stained with light, he is very depressed.

"I heard that the purchase price of sesame peanuts was high, and the land was originally small, so I wanted to plant them." Mu Xiu had already thought about what to say.

"This year's sesame peanut prices are the highest in previous years, and you are really lucky." The grain collector muttered in a low voice, then looked at the scale next to him, opened the bag again, grabbed it and looked at it.

"One hundred pounds of sesame seeds, five hundred and eighty pounds of peanuts."

As soon as the grain collector's voice fell, Chen Xuhui asked with a surprised face: "It's wrong, the sesame seeds are obviously one hundred and twenty catties, and the peanuts are also six hundred catties." ”

"I say as much as I want, am I still mistaken, your sesame seeds and peanuts are not in good condition, and they are mixed with stones and grass, and they need to be damaged a little." The grain collector said viciously.

"How can it be bad and unclean? You see how clean the sesame seeds are, and the peanuts, and there is not even a trace of mud on them. Chen Xuhui said excitedly.

Mu Xiu immediately understood what the other party meant, he just wanted to fill his pockets, but this food image is too ugly, others grab a handful is a matter of catties, this person is good, he will be greedy for twenty catties at once, it is really not enough to swallow an elephant.

"Brother Chen, the sack is packed up, we won't sell it." Mu Xiu stretched out her hand to stop Chen Xuhui, and stepped forward to tie the bag, it was not interesting to be angry with such a person, Mu Xiu didn't want to bother at all, she would rather run a little more and go to the grain station in other neighboring towns to sell.

"You go to other grain stations like this, I advise you to get acquainted, otherwise I will wait until next year to pay the public grain, I will still be here." The grain collector saw that the boiled duck was about to fly away, and in a hurry, he couldn't help but threaten.

"Is there any law anymore, now is a new society, not an old society, and you want to put on a bureaucratic face to deal with us low-level people with a little power in your hands, what about your leaders? I still don't believe that the entire grain station is so blatantly deceived and embezzled the grain that our farmers have worked so hard to grow. "In Mu Xiu's last life and in this life, what he hated most was the threat of others, and at this moment, the anger came up directly.

The grain collector was also stunned, this shouldn't be, in the past, as long as he was louder, the other party didn't dare to say more, how could he ...... today

"Little girl, let me tell you, the county official might as well be in charge now, you'd better not look for trouble, it's all our people here, and it's not good for you to make trouble." Although the grain collector still spoke fiercely, his voice was lowered a lot, and his face looked a little nervous.

"Who's looking for trouble?" Mu Xiu immediately raised her voice, she was really angry.

Mu Xiu's voice immediately attracted everyone's attention.
