Chapter 131: Selling Seedlings
"In this case, it will be okay, and the uncle will rest assured, the uncle will ask a few more words, Yiyu, the seedlings raised by your family, how are you going to sell them?"
"Yiyu plans to sell a penny of seedlings for an acre of land." This price is the price that Liu Yiyu thought of yesterday.
Originally, cultivating seedlings for one acre of land probably needed about thirty catties of sweet potatoes, one pound of sweet potatoes needed two copper plates and one catty, and thirty catties was sixty copper plates, and the Liu family only earned forty copper plates for seedlings per acre of field.
If it weren't for the fact that last year, there were a lot of sweet potatoes planted at home, otherwise there would not be so many seedlings? Even so, a small half of the Liu's sweet potatoes and potatoes were used as seedlings.
"It's not expensive to sell it, and people who are afraid of delaying sowing will buy your seedlings." Uncle Wang heard Liu Yiyu quote this price, and after seeing that the price of selling this seedling was not expensive, he nodded and said.
After that, Aunt Wang and Dahua went to Liu's house to each carry a burden of Miao'er back.
After Liu Yiyu came back, he saw that Liu Li and the third sister were back, Liu Yiyu said to Liu Li that he went to Lizheng's house to borrow an ox cart, and brought the seedlings to Li Zheng's family to send two acres of fields.
Liu Yiyu sisters went to Lizheng's house to send seedlings to borrow ox carts, and after seeing these seedlings that were growing well, they were a little amazed that the Liu family not only cultivated the seedlings in advance after the Spring Festival Gala, but also cultivated the seedlings that grew gratifyingly, but Wang Lizheng did not ask much about how the Liu family cultivated them.
Liu Yiyu said that he wanted to borrow an ox cart and pull the family's seedlings to sell in the town tomorrow, and Wang Lizheng agreed.
After Wang Lizheng heard Liu Yiyu say that he had raised a lot of sweet potatoes and potato seedlings, Wang Lizheng thought for a while, and said to Liu Yiyu, "Now there are many families in the village, none of them have raised seedlings, and when the seedlings are raised, I am afraid that they will delay the sowing in the fields, or the uncle will ask our village if there is a family that wants to buy your seedlings."
"Okay, then thank you Uncle Lizheng, the seedlings raised by my family, all of them are the best, the price, the seedlings of an acre of field, only sell for a penny, if you are willing to come to my house to buy seedlings, my family welcomes them, if it is to find fault with things, we will not accept it."
After Liu Yiyu borrowed the ox cart and put the ox cart in the cowshed, Liu Yiyu told Liu Li what Wang Lizheng said today, Liu Li heard this, his face was a little worried, Liu Yiyu turned around in his heart and said, "Mother, if someone comes to our house to buy seedlings tomorrow, come to buy them sincerely, we don't need to say anything, sell them generously, but the price is a hanging money and an acre of land seedlings, and it is not good to have a copper plate less, if you are here to talk about something, you just can't hear it, otherwise, close the door directly, and wait for your daughter to come back."
"Cheng, my mother knows."
On the second day, after the sky was not yet bright, the Liu family got up and got busy, and carried the seedlings that were bundled last night to the ox cart with a load, and the cart was full of piles, and Liu Yiyu estimated that the seedlings of the ox cart could also be planted on fifteen acres of land.
Liu Yiyu was still afraid of bumps on the road, so after dropping these seedlings from the ox cart, he asked Liu Li to tie them with rattan ropes.
"Eldest sister, this is the cake that my mother baked this morning, you take it on the road to eat, don't go hungry."
"Mother, my daughter knows, if it's still early today, my mother will still go to bed, and I will wait for the meeting, I'm afraid that you will be busy with your mother? The second sister's family, you will take care of it more." Before leaving, Liu Yiyu confessed a few words.
"Eldest sister, I save my province, you can rest assured."
Today is the day of the town's ten miles and eight towns to catch the market, fortunately, the three Liu Yiyu sisters got up early and came to the town, and there are not many people who set up stalls.
"Big sister, here."
"Fifth brother, why are you here?" Liu Yiyu saw that Liu Yihao occupied a convenient intersection, and after waving to himself, Liu Yiyu drove the ox cart over, and after parking the ox cart, he asked the fifth brother with some surprise.
"Didn't the eldest sister say a few days ago that our family would bring seedlings to the town to sell? The fifth brother pondered, today is the day of the town's market, and our family will definitely bring seedlings to the town to sell, and the fifth brother got up early in the morning and occupied a good position for our family? ”。 The fifth brother said with a smile.
"Fifth brother, it's great that you occupy this position, I'm afraid that our seedlings will sell quickly." Liu Yimeng said.
After the sisters and brothers unloaded the seedlings on the ox cart, the stall owners who were selling other things next to the Liu family were a little surprised or surprised when they saw that the Liu family was selling seedlings.
In the late spring of this year, many people's seedlings have not yet come out, and now it is more than half of March.
"Why do you sell these seedlings?" The man who was selling game next to the Liu family asked after seeing the Liu family's seedlings.
"A seedling of one acre of land". Liu Yishuang stretched out a finger and replied.
"This". When the man heard that he needed a lot of money to buy an acre of seedlings, he suddenly hesitated a little.
Liu Yishuang's heart moved, and then said, "Uncle, now it's more than half of March, in the delay, even if you plant sweet potatoes, potatoes and other seedlings, this year's spring delay in sowing, the autumn harvest will also be delayed, and the yield does not need to be said, it will also be suddenly reduced, now spend a lot of money to buy an acre of seedlings back to plant, so that there will be no delay in sowing, the autumn harvest will not be delayed, the output will increase, compared with two by two, it is more worthwhile than spending a lot of money to buy seedlings, maybe you still earn in it?" ”。
After the man heard the words of the third sister, he also thought that what the third sister said was reasonable, and the man said, "You girl can see it clearly, what you say is reasonable?" That's right, the uncle's family still has two acres of land left for planting sweet potatoes and potatoes, and today, the uncle doesn't sell anything, so he buys your sweet potato seedlings and potato seedlings on one acre of land, and hurry home to plant them."
"Uncle, this is the sweet potato seedlings of an acre of land and the potato seedlings of an acre of land that you want." After Liu Yiyu took the two pieces of money handed over by the man, the fifth brother and the sixth sister piled the bundled seedlings together.
There are two large bundles of seedlings on one acre of land, and there are four large bundles of seedlings on two acres of land, Liu Yiyu tied the two bundles of seedlings together and handed the man a bamboo flat pole that he had cut at home earlier.
