381 and three years
Time flies, and three years have passed, and the vegetables of Lijia Farm have already become famous in Nanzhi County.
Not only did various restaurants compete to order the Li family's vegetables and grains, but many wealthy people in the city also sent people to the Li family's farm outside the city every day to purchase.
In three years, it is enough to develop all the more than 600 acres of wasteland and the two mountains.
It doesn't seem to be a problem to provide for the entire Nanzhi County.
And the rise of the Li family farm did not threaten the interests of other farmers.
First, at Lin He's request, he would not sell too many crops in one day without restraint, and even sent a batch to Xie Jiang, especially those that had been stored for a little longer, through his grocery store, so as to sell the crops to other cities.
The second is that Lin He will leave a large number of crop seeds every year, except for the ones that need to be used at home, the rest of Lin He is generously expressed and can be sold to others.
In the past three years, the biggest change is that the original wasteland outside the city has now become a large area of fertile land.
Chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle and sheep are raised in large quantities, and the manure irrigates the barren wasteland, and a handful of seeds are scattered on the ground, and they can grow lush and green.
Of course, at the same time, the most troublesome thing is that there are always a lot of weeds in the field, especially in the previous two years, but this year it is better.
And this credit is all due to the nearby villagers, and almost every day there are many aunts and aunts who work tirelessly pulling weeds in the field.
Of course, there are also some elderly people, Lin He also does not refuse to come, picking beans, picking sweet potatoes, and even picking up ears of wheat.
I didn't give much salary, I just worked slowly, and the old man could pass the time and earn some pocket money by the way.
It can be said that the two mountains and at least more than 1,000 acres of fields have also provided a lot of opportunities for the villagers and the people in the city to work and make money.
In the past few years, whenever the Li family farm is mentioned, there is no one who does not give a thumbs up!
However, in addition to the hard work in the field, the Li family farm has no hindrance to other industries at all, and even those other farms outside the city have bought seeds from the Li family in the past two years, and the yield has increased!
Lin He also deliberately counted the expenses before and after the development of wasteland, and all profits were also recorded.
In addition to the first year, there was a lot of wasteland, more wages, too much money spent on buying cattle and sheep, and the income was not stable, in the next two years, the farm made very high profits, most of which were earned from growing vegetables.
This is still a profit in addition to wine.
When it comes to wine, there's a story.
When Liu Donger came to Nanzhi County with them, Lin He arranged for her to live in the room next to the master bedroom.
When she first arrived in Nanzhi County, Lin He took her to buy new clothes, shoes and socks, and also bought some beautiful and beautiful accessories.
Liu Dong'er was very nervous, but she refused to avail, so she worked very seriously every day, but what kind of work can the Li family have, the clothes are specially washed, and she will find two aunts every month to clean up the yard inside and out.
So apart from cooking, there is hardly anything to do on weekdays.
It just so happened that when she came, Qing Yu would go to Li's house to take a nap at noon every day.
Liu Donger got to know Qing Zhen, so he went to work in the field with Qing Zhen every day, and later Li Changqiang's daughter-in-law and daughter came over, and Qing Zhen was arranged by Lin He to live together.
Liu Dong'er hesitated for a few days, and also told Lin He that he wanted to move over.
Let's not mention that Liu Dong'er and Liu Qingzhen are about the same age, Li Changqiang only had two daughters at that time, and his daughter-in-law didn't know when she was pregnant with the third child, and the child was gone when she was carrying water, and she fell ill, and then she wanted a child, it depended on fate.
Compared with Changhui's cousin's side, the three girls of the same age on Changqiang's cousin's side are obviously more attractive to Liu Dong'er.
Lin He repeatedly confirmed that she was sure that she was not for anything else, but wanted to have more little sisters of the same age, even if in fact, with her seniority, the two daughters who grew up to be strong had to call her aunt.
So Liu Dong'er moved over, it was just autumn at that time, and the grapes were not yet ripe.
When the grapes were ripe, a large number of grapes were sent to the Li family's backyard.
Lin He reacted in hindsight, fortunately Liu Dong'er moved to Changqiang's house, otherwise, she really didn't know how to hide it from her in this situation.
Of course, so far, except for their family of five, no one else knows the relationship between wine and them, but Lin He still boils a lot of grape jam every year.
The Li family's grape jam is very popular, and it is much more expensive than the price sold in Yonghe Town.
The grapes are specially removed from the skin when they are washed.
Grapes that have broken skin and touched raw water cannot be used to make wine, and they are easy to spoil and deteriorate, so it is better to pick them in advance to make jam than to spoil a vat of wine.
During the harvest period, the grapes are picked in the field, and after they are delivered to the home, there are also people who fetch water to clean them.
And Lin He and Li Changhui will take advantage of noon and evening, when no one is around, to make wine.
It's a bit tiring, but it's not a big problem, and it's only a month or two at most, and then you just need to count the money every month.
And as the farm gradually got on the right track, Lin He began to have nothing to do, and she didn't have to worry about the fields, so she began to think about delicious food.
No, Xie Jiang got a yak from outside the gate a few years ago, and when he was sent to Nanzhi County, he was already dying, Lin He immediately found someone to kill him, except for a little left for the New Year, everything else made beef jerky.
Even the beef bones and beef offal were stewed in several large pots of hot soup by her, and they were also tasted by the people who worked.
Although it is true that in recent years, because of the existence of the Li family, there are more places to make money, and the output of grain seems to be higher, but meat is still a luxury for everyone.
In addition to yaks, the Li family's cultivated cattle have also increased to a total of fifteen cows, of which eleven are females, and the first batch of cows, if nothing else, should be able to breed and get pregnant this year.
At this time, Lin He was walking in the field, and Li Changhui was with him, he just sent this month's wine to various places in the city last night, and this is what he has done the most in the past few years.
There is also Yi Rong, pretending to be a Guanwai Hu person, but he has not been exposed, so he has been pretending to be like this for several years, and it has been the same until now.
On the opposite hillside, there was a cowshed, and Lin He was planning for seventy or eighty cows, but it was still empty, only a dozen cows.
Except for some young people who can't plow the land, the cows are still too busy when the farm is busy, so they have to go outside to find people to find cattle to work.
On the contrary, it is the flock, the original wild goat successfully stayed, not only it, but also a small flock, more than a dozen wild goats, all of which have melted into the Li family's flock, I have to say, this is a lot of money.
After three years of breeding, there are now more than 200 wild goats.
