Lu Jian'an and Xu Mengshan went to Li Laohan's house.

Unexpectedly, Li Laohan's house was in front of the ridge of the Lu family's mulberry field, with three small shacks, which were dilapidated, thanks to the warm climate here, if they were left in the north, the northwest wind would blow in winter.

It's probably going to freeze to death.

Even this shack is also in tatters, if it rains, Lu Jian'an believes that it must be a rain outside the house and a leak in the house.

Li Laohan can't blame his son for medical treatment, such conditions show that farmers at this time have no status.

If you don't have money, you don't have status.

In particular, they are tenants and cultivate other people's land.

Paid the rent! Probably to be able to fill your stomach, it's good not to starve to death, what else do you want.

A well, fenced off a vegetable patch, in which two chickens shuttle from time to time.

It's a pity that the thin hair of both chickens is bald.

At first glance, it is severely malnourished, and it really shows that someone raises something.

Xu Mengshan had already stepped forward to call someone.

"Li Zhilin, Li Zhishan, Lu Dongjia is here."

Usually he is called Master Lu Jian'an, but for the Li family, this is the owner, so he naturally has to change his name.

Li Zhilin, Li Zhishan, and Li Laohan hurriedly came out, and when they saw that it was Lu Jian'an, they hurriedly wanted to bow down and kowtow.

Lu Jian'an waved his hand, "Don't kowtow, you rented my land, and you didn't sell yourself to my family, there is no need to kowtow like this."

I just explain to you, the ground is turned, the mulberry seedlings are in the ground, and there are twenty acres of fertile land to be planted, this time I am ready to plant mushrooms, you don't have to delay, plant as soon as possible, you should be able to harvest a season, you are familiar with the village, I am also ready to buy silkworm seeds, and show me the way, we are about to start working. ”

She's also a resolute person.

But these words made Li Zhilin and Li Zhishan startled.

"Owner, twenty acres of fertile land are planted with soybeans?"

Don't grow food! What do you eat in winter?

They are tenants, except for mulberry trees, which rely on mulberry leaves to earn income, and generally every household designates silkworms as long as they plant mulberry.

It's a one-stop service.

If there are rich mulberry leaves, they will sell them to those who are not rich.

There is always a need for mulberry leaves.

This money allows them to buy food.

Even if there is good land, rice is grown, and they naturally can't eat it, but these are expensive grains, which are sold to grain stores, and then they buy back yellow rice, so that they can eat.

Otherwise, the family would not be able to afford to eat rice.

This owner doesn't grow rice, but grows soybean, which is not fatal.

This mushroom can't be sold at a high price, what will you eat when the time comes?

But the two brothers were a little dumbfounded.

The owner of the heart road looked like a child, probably not knowing the things in the field.

"Yes! All kinds of mushrooms! ”

Lu Jian'an naturally has his own plans.

The problem of food is not that it cannot be solved, only if you have money, you will naturally have everything.

Basically, their fields in Fengshan County are planted with mulberry seedlings, but they don't rely on grain.

Who's not buying food to get by?

"But! The owner, the fertile land is planted, it is too wasteful, it is neither fertilized nor sold at a price, and we will not even be able to pay the rent at that time. What do we eat in winter? "It's not that I don't want to, it's absolutely not.

"Listen to me, plant, I'm of great use. The problem of food can be solved.

I know you're worried that you won't have enough food to survive the winter.

What did you do in the winter? ”

Li Zhilin, Li Zhishan smiled bitterly, what can people like them do.

"In winter, the business of the entire silk mill in Fengshan County is almost gone, and we don't go to work for other people, so basically we can't subsidize a few dollars. The main reason is that there are too many people at home in winter, and no one needs manpower.

If we were to work part-time jobs in the winter, we would starve to death. ”

"Okay, don't talk about it, it's autumn harvest! You have handed over all the mushrooms, and you will come to us to receive yellow rice for the amount of grain left in previous years, and you can also come and help in the winter! Earn money to support your family. ”

Lu Jian'an's words made Li Zhilin and Li Zhishan not understand! But I didn't understand and knew what the owner meant, the grain was still available, and the owner gave them yellow rice to replenish it, and I didn't want to go.

Or admonished.

"Owner, this thing can't be sold at a price, there are more in the grain store, and there is more than a pound and a penny, and everything is made of tofu or something, and there are no people at all. If you plant that, you're going to lose it. ”

They are honest people.

It's not the kind of person who cheats and cheats, otherwise he wouldn't have worked for Lu Shi'an for so long, Lu Shi'an's father used this family when he was alive, but he just felt that Li Laohan's family was honest.

"Don't worry about it, now take me to the village to find someone to buy seeds, mulberry seedlings and silkworm seeds."

That's probably the biggest expense in recent times.

Li Zhilin nodded, "Nacheng, I'll take you there, let my brother follow, and I can carry it back when the time comes." ”

Honest man.

There are several families in the village who specialize in selling silkworm seeds, and they also raise silkworms themselves, but they can also earn some other money by relying on the craft of raising silkworm seeds.

Li Zhilin popularized the situation in the village to Lu Jian'an along the way.

This village doesn't look like it depends on Fengshan County, but the village is not rich.

There are more than 100 families in the whole village, and almost every household grows mulberry and raises silkworms for a living, but they don't reel silk and don't know that craft, so the silkworm cocoons are sold in the cocoon market for money.

It's a pity that people have been planting mulberry and raising silkworms for so many years, but they have not been able to improve the quality of silkworm seeds, and the cocoon formation rate of silkworm cocoons is relatively low, so every household is not rich.

Lu Jian'an followed Li Zhilin into the village and found that it was true, every yard has a silkworm shed, in fact, there are also in later generations, but compared to this quality performance and temperature retention are much better, now to put it bluntly, it is a house with silkworm baskets, spread out layer by layer, a shelf can probably put ten baskets on it.

No wonder the cocoon emergence rate is low.

This method of raising silkworms is still an ancient method.

However, on the basis of no good conditions, this is already advanced.

The Lizheng family in the village sells silkworm seeds, and they come to the Lizheng family.

This was decided by Lu Jian'an.

After all, if you want to live in the village, Lizheng is still in charge, and there are some rights in your hands, just by buying silkworm seeds and building a good relationship with others, there will always be someone to help you in the future.

After all, they are orphans and widows, and they need shelter.

Make a good relationship! At least there is one thing that the people of the village will not sit idly by.

So a few people went to Fang's house.

"Fang Lizheng, I brought our owner to buy silkworm seeds."

Li Zhilin shouted outside the courtyard gate, across the courtyard wall, Lu Jian'an still saw that the conditions in Lizheng's house were much better than others.

The red bricks and green tiles are the first in this village.

Compared with the surrounding gray and abrupt and yellow earthen walls, it is obviously a notch.
