Chapter Eighty-Four: The First Sweet Potatoes Ripen
Although Wei Jin did not respond, he agreed with Xiaobei's statement in his heart.
She really liked him as an older brother, if one day she knew that he was actually ...... I don't know if it's going to be sad.
Xiaobei couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, are we really going to Huzhou Mansion?" went to Huzhou Mansion, but I couldn't see the eldest lady. ”
"I'm going." Wei Jin has also made up his mind.
There are some things that are inconvenient for others to do in the Wei Mansion, and they can only let go of their hands and feet when they go out.
Seeing Wei Jinyi's change, Xiaobei was both happy and worried in his heart, young master, he had been avoiding those people all these years, and now he had changed his mind, and he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.
###
A few days later, there was a reply from Huzhou Mansion, and the recommendation letter from He Yougongzi was very useful, and the Tibetan forest monk planned to meet Wei Jinyi in person.
So Wei Jin also prepared to leave for Huzhou Mansion.
Wei Mingting personally instructed the Yun clan to prepare luggage and horses for Wei Jin to ensure that Wei Jin also had no worries on the road.
The Yun family didn't dare to slack off, but they were a little lost in their hearts, the second young master who had never had a sense of existence in the mansion got this opportunity to apprentice to the Tibetan Forest monk, and her sister-in-law, the eldest young master, who had been praised by her classmates, could only continue to stay in this Xingshan County, struggling to find the next opportunity.
When Wei Jin also went out, Wei Ruo did not go to see him off, but just prepared a box of practice gifts for Wei Jin, which was handed over to Xiaobei the day before.
After Wei Jin also left, Wei Ruo sat in the courtyard, holding his chin with one hand, and sighed unconsciously:
"I suddenly felt that my decision was not very wise, and there was such a person at home who could talk, and I felt even more lonely when I left."
Xiumei said: "Miss, I have nothing wrong with this, it is your own decision, if you really feel bored, then I will be wronged and talk to you more every day." ”
"Okay Meimei, don't eat my second brother's vinegar, you are the most important thing, you are the person who talks to me the most, I can do it without anyone, but I can't do without you." Wei Ruo hurriedly explained.
Xiumei was amused by Wei Ruo and giggled, "Okay, okay, miss, you won't be hungry again and ask me to make something delicious for you, right?" ”
"No, no, it's all sincerity, no skill." Wei Ruo said with a grin.

Time flashed to the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and the weather turned cooler.
On the first day of August, it was a cloudy day, and the mood of the people was just like the weather on this day.
There is no other reason, but because this year's rice does not grow well, the rice ears are few and not full, and a large number of empty husks appear, so you can foresee this year's grain situation without waiting for the rice to mature.
At the same time, the sweet potatoes in Xiaoyangshan also ushered in the harvest.
Compared with the gloomy clouds of other Zhuangzi, Xiaoyang Mountain is filled with the joy of a good harvest.
The hired long-term laborers turned over the land, dug up the sweet potatoes, and then carried them down the mountain one by one.
The long-term and short-term farmers in the other nearby villages all craned their necks to look at it.
In fact, they were already curious when they started growing sweet potatoes on Xiaoyang Mountain.
Later they sold some vine leaves, and everyone probably knew that it was a new crop that could be eaten.
But if it's just to sell some leaves, it doesn't seem worth planting such a mountain.
Today, when I saw the long-term workers on the mountain carrying loads of sweet potatoes down the mountain, I realized that these plants mainly ate tubers in the soil.
I don't know if this red piece of things is good or not.
Most of the first batch of sweet potatoes were sent to the warehouse, and only a small part was sent to the market to be sold.
Looking at the situation this year, storing grain is more important than storing silver.
Of course, Wei Ruo still needs to sell some sweet potatoes in exchange for some working capital, but this is not in a hurry, and he still needs to wait for the next few batches of sweet potatoes to be dug up, evaluate the total output and then decide how much to sell.
Now I only sell a few of them, which can be regarded as a promotion of this new crop and a foreshadowing for subsequent mass sales.
At the market, a charcoal shelf is set up next to a small stall selling sweet potatoes, and sweet potatoes are roasted on it.
Soon, the roasted sweet potatoes gave off an enticing food aroma, attracting many people to stop and ask.
There have been endorsements of sweet potato vine leaves and dried sweet potatoes before, and everyone has a certain understanding of sweet potatoes as a crop, knowing that this thing can be eaten and tastes good.
The price of roasted sweet potatoes is not expensive or cheap, five cents a piece.
But this year, everyone can already foresee that the grain will be in arrears, and the price of grain in the rice shop is already rising.
After the first person buys it and tastes it on the spot, it sells out quickly, and it sells out in a short time.
Many people still want to buy it again, but the roasted sweet potato stall has been closed, and what they want can only come back another day.

Listening to Songyuan, Wei Ruo was in a very good mood.
Xiumei was also happy, and every time the crops were harvested, the young lady's mood was very good. If the crops were ripe every day, the young lady would probably be so happy every day.
What Xiumei didn't know was that Wei Ruo was happy not only because of the bumper harvest of sweet potatoes on Xiaoyang Mountain, but also because the sweet potatoes she had planted in the yard were also ripe.
Although it can't be compared with Xiaoyang Mountain in terms of quantity, this is planted by Wei Ruo himself, and he can get experience points.
Originally, there was only one hundred experience points left behind the one thousand experience points from the third level of space promotion, but this time, two hundred experience points were directly obtained, and the space was successfully upgraded to the third level.
Not only is there an extra piece of arable land in the space, but a new space plant - shiitake mushroom mycelium is unlocked.
After the space was upgraded, Wei Ruo planted it on the land of the space as soon as possible, and the land of the space could be planted with anything, and she did not need to treat the soil and environment additionally.
Even if the environmental factors required to grow shiitake mushrooms are completely different from those required to grow ordinary plants, they can be achieved on the land in the space.
In addition, Wei Ruo also wants to carry out the cultivation of shiitake mushrooms in the outside world, which is much more complicated, and requires the preparation of planting materials and a suitable planting environment.
There are several advantages to growing mushrooms under the current conditions: firstly, the growth cycle of this thing is very short, and it can grow in a week at the right temperature and humidity.
Secondly, this thing does not need to be planted in the ground, does not occupy land resources, land resources in Xingshan County are very limited, even if there is more wasteland in the south of the city, the per capita cultivated land area is still not rich.
The last thing that made Wei Ruo happy was that Xingshan County was mountainous, and there were many caves on the mountain, and the last time she went to the Xie Family Courtyard, she found that there were many natural caves formed on the nearby mountains.
If the humidity and temperature in the cave are suitable, it will be a natural mushroom cultivation room.
