When the village chief arrived at Gu's house, Jiang Mian was directing Gu Dali to carry more than a dozen sacks of seeds to the ox cart in the yard.

When the village chief saw Patriarch Gu, who was almost smiling out of a flower, he understood everything.

"Gu Family Patriarch, here!"

The patriarch of the Gu family turned around and saw the village chief and exchanged a few words with him.

Jiang Mian brought the water over to the village chief to drink.

"Village Chief, are you here today?"

"It's not about growing food."

"Village chief, do you want it? It's easy to say, how much? ”

The village chief smiled awkwardly, "Gu Xiao and his daughter-in-law, I don't just want it myself, but also the people in the village." ”

"I know that because of the matter in Niubei Mountain, the people in the village are not happy with you, I am here to say sorry to you on their behalf, you and Gu Xiao don't remember the villain, can it be done?"

The village chief came to be this lobbyist, and he did say that he came with a shy face.

The people in the village are very sick with red eyes, bad mouths, and they can't see others well.

Because of the brick kiln in Niubei Mountain, Jiang Mian's family didn't know how many bad things were said.

He was pushed to ask for food, and his face was panicked.

When Jiang Mian heard it, it turned out to be this.

"Village chief, you also know how the people in the village scold our family behind our backs, and there is not much affection with them."

"This, Gu Xiao's daughter-in-law, they are naturally wrong when they scold people, I will teach them a good lesson when I go back! Don't be angry, they don't have a good time, so they will stare at the good of others. It's all from a village, helping to help and fend? ”

"Village chief, I won't hide it from you, my grain seed was taken by the county magistrate, and he asked for a hundred yuan a catty and collected my family's grain."

"One hundred wen?!"

At this time, not only the village chief exclaimed, but even the Gu patriarch also exclaimed.

One hundred pounds!

Isn't the best golden silk cotton rice grain now only 80 wen a catty, and his family's grain is 100 wen a catty?

Patriarch Gu looked at the grain seeds on the ox cart, like hugging a hot potato.

One acre of land costs about eight catties of grain, and his family has 12 acres of land, so he only needs to use ninety-six catties of grain, but he bought more than 300 catties of grain with Jiang Mian, and the rest of the grain is asked by his relatives.

One hundred pounds of grain was bought back by the price of ordinary grain he used.

Twenty wen a catty, he still has the courage to be too expensive......

Patriarch Gu looked at Gu Yanning, "Boy, my hundreds of catties of millet still only cost me six taels of silver, right?" ”

Gu Yanning looked at Patriarch Gu suspiciously, "Of course." Or else? ”

Patriarch Gu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good boy, good boy!"

The patriarch asked, "Gu Xiao, how is your harvest this year, and how much are you going to take out to make grain seeds?" ”

Gu Yanning said: "All of them are used as grain. ”

"All?" Patriarch Gu remembered the warehouse full of rice he had just seen, and there must be tens of thousands of catties of rice in that warehouse, right?

He asked uncertainly, "Can it be sold?" ”

"Yes." Gu Yanning was concise and to the point.

Patriarch Gu rubbed his hands and asked, "Can you leave some more for the clansmen?" ”

Gu Yanning looked straight at Jiang Mian, meaning that he couldn't do this master.

Jiang Mian said: "Patriarch, the county lord and the Mu family have bought a lot of grain seeds, and there are only 2,000 catties of grain that I can sell in my hands now. The life of the people in the village is not easy, I know, so let's do it, it's still twenty wen a catty, you and the village chief discuss how much you want. ”

"But I'm just giving the price to the clansmen and the villagers, and you two also know that I sell one pound and lose one pound, so I have to ask the two of you to help us check it."

As soon as Jiang Mian's words reached everyone's ears, they set off a storm.

"Twenty cents a pound? Why didn't she grab it? Everyone is a ...... of a village."

Before the speaker could finish speaking, he was unceremoniously interrupted by the village chief.

"Twenty wen a pound is expensive? People sell it to people outside, but it's a pound of 100 yuan! Zhang Gouzi, you don't want it, a lot of people are rushing to ask for it! ”

The number of 100 wen unsurprisingly shocked everyone.

"You don't want to think about your own virtues!"

"Zhang Gouzi, your daughter-in-law has slandered the Jiang family, right?"

"Sixth son, you didn't scold the Gu family less, right?"

"Hu Quan, his daughter-in-law, you haven't cursed others, have you?"

"Now Gu Xiao's family can ignore your mouth full of powder and dung, and are willing to sell you grain seeds at a low price, so you can be content! Now people only come out with 1,000 catties of grain, which is not enough to share, and they are shouting blindly and are not used to buy them! ”

The village chief's words made everyone speechless.

"I'll make it clear, one acre of land, just Gu Xiao's middle field, can produce eight stones of grain, you yourself ponder whether to buy it. If you want to come to me at noon tomorrow, you will say, "There is little food, and I will distribute it to you according to the situation." ”

A group of people were chattering around.

In the same Zhongtian as Jiang Mian, the rice they are planting now can produce up to five stone of rice per acre, that is, 600 catties of rice.

And ginger cotton's rice can produce eight stones per mu, that is, 960 catties of grain.

According to the current price of grain, 10 yuan per pound of rice can earn an additional 3,600 yuan.

One acre of land is planted with eight catties of grain, and one hundred and sixty wen is used, but it can be exchanged for three thousand six hundred wen, and the profit is doubled!

Those who wanted to understand quietly went to the village chief to make a reservation.

I didn't figure it out, and I still disdainfully said that I could wait until next year to buy people from the village, so I don't know how much silver I can save!

On Patriarch Gu's side, there are not so many twists and turns.

Patriarch Gu gathered the clansmen together, and when he said this, he directly unified the land in the homes of each clan and divided the 1,000 catties of rice in equal amounts.

Saved a lot of trouble.

The matter of grain varieties has come to an end for the time being.

In the blink of an eye, the New Year is ushered in.

The first snow of this year came late, and it only began to fall sporadically at the junction of Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year.

As soon as the white and frosty snow fell to the ground, it melted.

People in the village are lamenting that this year is a warm year.

The firecrackers on the first day of the new year go off on time.

Brilliant fireworks fill the night sky.

"Mother!"

"Aunt Jiang!"

"Cousin!"

"Mrs. Gu!"

Jiang Mian heard the sound and looked at the big treasure, second treasure, third treasure, and fourth treasure in the courtyard, as well as Qin Qianqian, Yu Changhuan, Shi and Xiaoshan.

They all had smiles on their faces.

"Happy New Year!" They said in unison.

Jiang Mian chuckled a chuckle, "Happy New Year!" ”

This is her second year on earth.

From the very beginning, she has not felt lonely or uncomfortable for a moment.

Because, with her, there is also Gu Yanning.

Because, with her, there are cubs.

She looked up at Gu Yanning, who had a naïve face: "Good luck for the New Year, Ning cub." ”

Gu Yanning lowered his eyes and accurately puffed a touch of red on Jiang Mian's right cheek, "Good luck for the New Year, Mian Mian." ”

In the New Year, it is inevitable that chickens will fly and dogs will jump.

For example, Sambo blew up the chicken coop again.

Jiang Mian searched all the explosives in Sanbao's pocket with a dark face, and yelled at Gu Yanning: "Don't teach Erbao to make explosives again!" ”

At the same time, Erbao, who made explosives, was punished to sweep the chicken coop.

As for the Three Treasures, they were taken to memorize the pharmacopoeia with the Four Treasures.

The pleasant year passed quickly.

Dabao and a few other male dolls carried the book basket and went to Zhiyu Academy to take the entrance exam.

Dabao and Erbao were both excited.

They're finally going to college!
