Gu Rao said to the teeth, "Give us sixty Wen cheaper, there are more places to spend money recently, and we don't have much money left." ”

seemed to know that it was a bit too much for him to bargain like this, so he paused and said, "If it doesn't work, forget it, one acre of land is enough for us." ”

Tooth Man, "......"

Whose heart is dripping blood, he doesn't say.

"Good!"

In the end, the three acres of land were won at a price of 2,950 yuan, and after paying the money, three land deeds were obtained, but the name on the land deed was still the previous owner's.

The tooth man said, "As long as the title deed is in your hands, the land is yours." ”

"If you don't feel sure, take this land deed another day, go to the yamen and get a new one, and write your own name."

-

Coming out of the tooth shop, the couple talked as they walked back.

Beye said, "After closing the stall today, I will go and turn over the land, and tomorrow I will plant tomatoes, is there anything to pay attention to when planting tomatoes?" ”

Gu Rao said, "Choose plump tomato seeds, soak them in warm water for two to four hours, then sprinkle the seeds evenly in the soil, cover with a thin layer of soil, and water them appropriately." ”

"Seven days after planting before you can fertilize."

"Tomatoes need a lot of water to grow, so they usually need to be watered once in the morning and evening, and once every two days after the growing season."

Besino's heart.

"Okay."

After Gu Rao finished speaking, she felt very troublesome, not to mention watering, she couldn't help much, so she could only let Beiye come alone.

Watering three acres of land a day, once in the morning and evening, is still very tiring, Beiye does have great strength, but he is a person, not a tireless machine.

"Why don't you just use one acre of land to grow tomatoes, and the other two acres to grow something else."

"Tomatoes are very good to keep in the seeds, so we can only make more money when they first appear, and when we sell the tomatoes on three acres of land, plus the money we earn from doing business, we should be able to buy a house in the town." ”

Gu Rao, "......"

"Three acres of tomatoes, buy a house? Are you kidding me? The price of a house is at least 100 taels of silver, right? ”

For one hundred taels of silver, it is estimated that you can only buy a house on East Street, and if you want to buy a larger yard on South Street, it is estimated that it will cost at least two or three hundred taels of silver.

Besano's expression was obviously serious.

"We sell some of the tomatoes as vegetables and fruits, and the other part of the tomatoes are reserved for seeds, specifically for tomato seeds."

"Seeds are more expensive, and someone will buy them."

Gu Rao felt that what he said made sense, the seeds of the new species were indeed very sought-after, but ...... No matter how sought-after you are, you can't earn hundreds of taels of silver!

Besino's pondered for a moment.

"Three acres of tomatoes are indeed a little too little, and they will definitely not be enough to sell when the time comes, so we can sell what is grown outside and what is in the space."

Gu Rao listened excitedly.

The tomatoes in the space have a fast ripening cycle, and they can be harvested in a few days, which is almost a bug-like existence, and the space and land are so vast that you can plant as much as you want.

"There are a lot of rich people in Wild Boar Town, not to mention, in addition to the local people in Wild Boar Town, there are also foreign merchants every day. ”

"We can sell tomato seeds at a high price to merchants from other places."

Gu Rao's eyes lit up.

"Plant, three acres of land are used to grow tomatoes! You're not going to be able to do it alone, so let's hire someone to help us take care of the tomato patch. ”

"Spend where you need to spend money, and the wages you pay for hiring people are nothing compared to the money you earn from selling tomatoes."

Beno shook his head.

"Before tomatoes were on the market, the fewer people who knew about them, the better."

Gu Rao, "......"

Beiye raised his hand and rubbed Gu Rao's head.

"It's just been a busy few months, don't you want to have your own house sooner?"

Gu Rao pursed her lips.

"Of course I want to, but if buying a house is going to exhaust you, I'd rather not, didn't you say, can't you eat hot tofu in a hurry?"

"You can slowly save money to buy a house, and it's easier to grow fewer tomatoes."

Besino's persistence in this matter.

"I'm not afraid of getting tired."

Gu Rao can see that she can't listen to anything else now, and she usually seems to listen to her own words, but she has her own insistence on major things.

"You just asked for my opinion and wanted to buy three acres of land, in fact, you had this plan early on, if I didn't agree to buy three acres of land, would you still have to find a way to buy it?"

Beno did not deny it.

Gu Rao, "......"

It's good, I saw through it.

-

After the couple arrived home, the milk had been delivered to the door, and Gu Rao hurriedly gave the money to buy milk today, and asked the cattle dealer to go in and have a cup of tea before leaving.

The cattle dealer waved his hand.

"I'm not thirsty."

Gu Rao said, "It's hot today, don't you really drink some ice?" ”

The cattle dealer was stunned for a moment.

"Didn't you just let me in for tea?"

Gu Rao nodded.

"Yes, iced milk tea."

The cattle dealer had heard about their milk tea business, and also learned about the milk tea and the price after adding ice from others, and he was a little moved to hear it.

"You don't want money, do you?"

Gu Rao smiled.

"Please."

The cattle dealer couldn't resist the temptation of adding iced milk tea at all, and said shyly, "Everyone is an old acquaintance, so I won't be polite to you." ”

Help bring two tubs of milk tea to the kitchen.

Gu Rao asked him to sit in the lobby, filled him with some melon seeds, fruits and preserved fruits in a fruit bowl, and asked him to wait for milk tea while eating.

She hasn't started yet.

Just let the cattle dealer wait outside for a long time, it's embarrassing, invite him to drink a cup of milk tea, just take it as compensation for making him wait for a long time.

The cattle dealer couldn't sit still, so he helped Beno move the table out and set it up in the yard, and helped him set up a stall together.

Beiye chatted with him, and learned that his name is Qi Jin, three out of forty this year, living in Baishao Village, and he also has four brothers, ranking second among brothers.

The five brothers were cattle dealers, and they usually traveled between the town and the villages, and sometimes went to other towns and even the county town to buy or sell cattle.

The family now has a bull and four cows.

The cows were bought by several of their brothers together, and the money from the sale of milk was naturally shared among the five brothers, which was why he was not very active at first.

Thirty wen a bucket of milk, divided among the three brothers, he himself did not make much money at all, now selling fifty wen a barrel, selling two barrels a day, he and several brothers can earn twenty wen.

Qi Jin said, "I went back and discussed with my brothers, since you have decided to buy milk for a long time, we will specially let the cows in the family get pregnant and produce milk." ”

"The bull at home, we are also going to sell it for a cow."

Now there are four cows in the family, only one is lactating, two are pregnant, one is seven months pregnant, one is three months pregnant, and one is not pregnant.

As long as the timing is good, there is milk for sale 365 days a year!
