After the two discussed, they decided to leave only about 100 catties of taro to eat by themselves, and sell the rest.

As for how many catties there are, we have to wait for Shopkeeper Liu to come and weigh them.

In the morning, the two baskets totaled four hundred and fifty pounds, that is, four thousand five hundred wen, four taels of silver.

After all the loading was finished, watching Li Changhui move the bamboo basket outside, Lin He rubbed his waist and counted it.

"This basket has more than two hundred catties, eight baskets, that is, sixteen or seven hundred catties, a total of more than twenty taels of silver."

A little deflated, the last time Li Changhui hunted, he sold a total of more than thirty taels.

These twenty taels are the fruits of several days of labor for two people.

You don't need to look at Li Changhui to understand the meaning of the little chef, and said: "It's a lot, you must know that the vast majority of ordinary people, in addition to daily expenses, may not be able to save a silver or two a year." ”

Lin He was shocked: "So little? ”

She knew that it was not easy for everyone to make money, but she didn't expect it to be so little.

A tael of silver?

What can a tael of silver do?

But if there is an illness, a few taels of silver will be gone.

Could it be that Li Changhui is making too much money?

That's why she had the illusion that twenty or thirty taels are worthless?

Li Yu on the side also began to have starry eyes: "A lot of money, one or two silver, you can buy a hundred catties of meat, more than twenty taels, can you buy a dozen big fat pigs." ”

He is older than Li Hao, and naturally he is more aware of the purchasing power of one or two silvers.

Even Lin He, whose original concept was still a little vague, was surprised: "This, this is indeed a lot." ”

Twenty taels of silver, it doesn't sound like it feels much.

But a dozen big fat pigs, she understood.

Blink and look at these bamboo baskets in the yard, it's all money!

Silver with white flowers!

A bamboo basket is 200 catties of pork!

Sure enough, it was Li Changhui who was too capable, so she had a moment when she didn't know the suffering of the world!

However, Lin He quickly came back to his senses.

"Brother Hui, in the past two years, taro should be able to make a lot of money, let's sell some land suitable for planting taro first, and more next year, wait a few years, there are more people who grow taro, and we will definitely not be able to sell it at such a high price."

Li Changhui nodded: "Well, since we can find this on the mountain, it means that there are other places where we have planted it, and others will naturally recognize it, and even if we don't sell the seeds, others will definitely be able to find it." ”

Lin He motioned for Li Yu to bring her a stool over, the little man was energetic, squinted on the ox cart for a while, and now he was not sleepy or tired, so he moved it over to his mother.

Lin He leaned back on the chair, and there was a little regret: "Brother Hui, let's get two rocking chairs back, when I am in the courtyard in the cool this summer, I lie on the rocking chair and fan the pu fan, how comfortable it is." ”

Li Changhui just moved the last basket out, and when he heard this, he only glanced at Lin He, only to see a look of yearning and comfort, as if he had already sat in a rocking chair.

"Okay."

Lin He hurriedly retracted and thought: "Don't talk about it, we sold taro today, and this news will spread throughout the entire Xiang'an Village in a designated hour, and everyone will definitely go to the mountains to find it at that time." ”

"Whether you can find it or not, after the autumn harvest, you will definitely find us to sell seeds, especially this taro has a high yield, even if it is not valuable, as long as you can eat it, everyone will plant it."

And she guessed that the aunt's family would also try to keep some taro as seeds at that time, but it would definitely not work until next spring, as soon as the weather was hot, the taro would spoil.

At this point, I regret sending so many outs.

It's not that I feel sorry for the money, but I feel that I send too much, and I am afraid that they will not be able to eat it all, rotten, and wasted.

However, Lin He didn't regret it for too long, and just put it aside with just one thought.

Li Changhui: "It's okay, if someone buys it, sell it, and then you set a total number, how much will be sold in total, until it is sold out; Or each household can only buy as much as they want, and if they have more, they will not sell it. ”

Lin He listened, and felt more and more that his idea was right: "Buy land!" Tomorrow I will go and see, if there is a wasteland near the river, or an unowned land, it is better not to get entangled with others. ”

Li Yu has been squatting beside Lin He, listening carefully to his father's conversation, and then frowned: "Mother, I bought too much land, I can't plant it, right?" Why don't you wait for my brother and I to get older? ”

When he and his younger brother are older, they can help with more work, and now the younger brother can only help take care of the younger brother, or sweep the floor, light the fire, or something.

Although he can go to the field to help, his strength is limited, and he can only help with some light work, and he can't do too heavy work.

"And my mother is not in good health, she can't do heavy work, if she buys too much land, my father will definitely not be able to keep busy, and if the crops are wasted, I will have to pay taxes."

Every year in the autumn harvest of grain, there will be a part of the errand to collect a part of the left, the adults said that it is to pay taxes, if anyone's harvest is not good, after the grain is handed over, they are crying, saying that the family will be hungry.

Although he is not very old, he has seen a lot of this kind of thing.

He was worried that if his family bought too much land, he would not be able to plant it all, and because he had paid too many taxes, his family would have no food and would go hungry.

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, he was knocked on the head.

looked up blankly, and saw that his mother had just withdrawn her hand: "Stupid you, taro is so profitable, can't you find someone to pay you a little more, do you have to grow it yourself?" ”

Thinking so, Lin He hurriedly stood up: "No, no, Brother Hui, you take two more baskets back, let's have more!" ”

Look at how stupid she is, in the first year, only their family planted taro, so naturally there are more varieties!

Li Changhui did not refute, turned around and moved two more baskets back.

At this moment, Li Hao also pointed to the distance: "Dad, mother, ox cart." ”

An ox cart came from the other side of the bridge, and if nothing else, it should be the shopkeeper Liu who came.

Lin He hurriedly urged Li Changhui to hurry up and move directly to the bedroom, don't put it in the utility room, so that Shopkeeper Liu would see it, in case he persuaded them to sell them all.

The shopkeeper Liu is not stupid, this time the store pushed out the taro, and other restaurants in the town will soon get the news, maybe they will get the news now.

When the taro harvest season comes, you will definitely want to buy it.

So buy more now and make the most money first, which is the consideration of businessmen.

Their house is still far from the bridge, Li Changhui moved two baskets and put them in the bedroom, woke up Li An, who was sleeping, and hugged them out for Li Yu and Li Hao to watch.

Before leaving, Li Changhui told Shopkeeper Liu the specific location of his home and his name, but when he came to Xiang'an Village for the first time, he still couldn't find it directly, so he asked others on the side of the road where Li Changhui's house was.

As a result, when the ox cart came this way, there were already many people behind it.

Lin He sighed twice, look, what she just thought was right, if everyone sees that this taro is so valuable, there will definitely be a lot of them planted next year.

Even when the taro in their field grows and everyone recognizes it, many people will go to the mountains to find it.
