Chapter 223: The Wen Family Entrustment
Chen Changsheng's eyes widened: "You can pay taxes when you plant them?" My words are here, you are free, plant or not, I will say all I want, don't wait for the seedlings to run out and quarrel with me, but, Chen Mao'er, can your family's little family still withstand the risk of losing seedlings and seeds? ”
Chen Mao'er, who was named, did not speak with a bitter face.
Now his family is the poorest in the whole village, and Chen Ergou's family used to be at the bottom, and he could still be proud, but Chen Ergou was killed by himself, and his family's situation has not changed.
Alas, from the second poorest in the village to the first poor in the village, he felt that he couldn't even raise his head in front of the villagers.
"I, I take your word for it." Chen Mao'er said: "My family has ten acres of paddy fields close to the Sichuan River, this year, I won't plant this year, but, Brother Changsheng, can you give some cotton seeds to my brother, I want to plant some cotton on the south slope." ”
Don't think about planting pepper, not to mention that pepper seedlings are very expensive, just say that the pepper vine will have to wait for several years to bloom and bear fruit, and his family really can't afford to wait.
Chen Changsheng snorted, "I don't have many cotton seeds, so you better think of another way." Oh yes, let me remind you again, while you're not too busy right now, hurry up and go to the south slope to cut some bamboo and build a bamboo shed or something, and move all the big items in the house, in case there is really a big flood, it won't be bad. ”
More than half of the 40 or so heads of households nodded in agreement, and only a few disagreed.
Among them, Chen Lao Bolt is the most disdainful.
It is a brick house, and no matter how much water it is, it can't be washed down, so why bother messing around with these poor ghosts.
He stood up, patted the folds of his clothes on his buttocks, and said, "I'll go back if there's nothing to do, you guys talk slowly." ”
His second son has gone to the county seat to take the exam, and the eldest son and grandson have also accompanied him to take care of him, leaving his wife and daughter-in-law and little grandson at home.
Those who thought the same way as him also asked to go home, after all, the paddy fields need to be ploughed and watered, and then the rice seedlings will be planted.
Chen Changsheng sighed, waved his hand to let them go, and then said to the rest of the villagers: "You also go home and prepare, and Ming'er will go with me to Nanpo." ”
They also have a lot of fields on the southern slope of the west village, next to the east village, but one in the east and one in the west.
"Okay, let's go to the south slope tomorrow." The rest of the people are very happy, because there are many families who also want to go to Nanpo to build houses, but the village is not agreeing, and of course, there are some people who can't afford to build because they have no money left at home.
But now it's different, the village is taking the lead to lead them to build a shack on the southern slope, and they don't go because their own skulls are broken.
So one day, the villagers of Dongchen Village suddenly discovered that straw houses and bamboo sheds had sprung up in the land belonging to Xicun on the southern slope.
The villagers of the West Village saw the people of the East Village watching from afar, and waved their hands warmly to greet them.
Sakura Pony would also take a look when she was on a pony walk, and then go back to her field and continue planting chestnut trees, apple trees, and soaphorn trees.
In addition, Sakura Bao planted 1,000 golden fungus and 1,000 snow fungus in his own fungus shed, and the nutrient base of the cultivated strain did not add Wudingzhi, but soaked and steamed with pupil spring before use, which can not only kill the eggs and germs in the nutrient base, but also increase the yield.
Of course, she also planted a batch in the cave, and there were 1,000 plants each.
Seeing that she was growing mushrooms so early, my father and mother also tried to start planting, and expanded their own mushroom shed by two more to expand the number of plants to 1,000 plants per species.
Seeing this, Jiang Dalang and Jiang Erlang also planted with the third brother, and the number was the same.
Anyway, when mixing the nutrient base, everyone mixes together, and the steaming and sterilization are also together, which is also trouble-free.
It's been a busy time, and it's March soon.
On this day, a carriage suddenly came to the village, followed by two attendants, one of whom was a teenage attendant, Ying Bao, recognized that it was Ah Qiu, the servant of the Lin family, the third lady of Wen.
The carriage went straight to the gate of Jiang's house, and a short-bearded middle-aged man in his thirties got out of the carriage.
Ah Qiu also quickly jumped off the horse and shouted into the courtyard: "Is anyone home?" ”
Sakura ran over and asked, "Who are you looking for?" My mom and dad weren't home. ”
Recently, my father has been very busy, and he often can't see him for a day, and Ah Niang is also tidying up the fields in the vegetable garden, planting melons and courgettes.
Seeing that it was Yingbao, Ah Qiu smiled and said, "It's Yingbao, this is our Lin Dalangjun, entrusted by the Wen family, to come to your house today to collect fungus." ”
Ying Bao looked at Lin Dalangjun, who had an arrogant look in his eyes, and frowned: "Entrusted by the Wen family? ”
"yes." Seeing that Yingbao didn't seem to believe it, Ah Qiu explained, "Our Lin Dalangjun is the brother of Third Lady Wen. ”
Ying Bao said truthfully: "I'm really sorry, my fungus ears have all been sold." ”
In the past, Mrs. Wen did say that someone from the Wen family would come to buy it, but she didn't let her keep it waiting.
And Sister Wen didn't mention this in the letter last time, but just said that their family moved to Luzhou, and asked her to write a letter and send it to Luzhou Kang'an Pharmacy.
At the beginning of March, I just wrote a letter to Sister Wen and sent it to Luzhou, and attached two catties of gold fungus and two catties of snow fungus to them.
Lin Lu frowned when he heard this, and scolded angrily: "What? You are so bold that you dare to sell what the Wen family wants? ”
Sakura Bao was not happy when she heard it: "This, who are you?" Why can't I just sell my stuff? ”
She didn't sign a contract with the Wen family, and the Wen family didn't make a deposit, so why did she have to wait for them to buy it? Isn't it good to sell it in your own shop, the price is three or four times higher than selling it to the Wen family.
Lin Lu saw that a hairy girl from the Jiang family dared to talk back to him, and he was even more angry: "Bold! What about your family? Let them come and talk to me! ”
"My family is very busy and has no time to receive guests, if this Lang Jun has nothing else to do, I won't keep you." Sakura doesn't want to be verbose with such inexplicable people.
Seeing that his own Lang Jun was about to riot, Ah Qiu hurriedly persuaded: "Lang Jun, the child doesn't understand the rules, you don't have to be angry with her, the slave went to her parents to talk back to you." ”
Lin Lu snorted, turned around and walked away from the gate of the Jiang family.
Another attendant hurriedly brought out a stool from the carriage and let the master sit down and rest.
Ah Qiu trotted all the way to the farmland to look for the Jiang family, and really found Jiang Laohan and Jiang Dalang.
Jiang Laohan and his eldest son didn't know why, so they followed Ah Qiu back home, and saw a man in his thirties sitting not far from the door, with a white face and short beard, wearing a muslin robe, and at first glance he was not a farmer's child.
"This son, I don't know what to do with us?" Jiang Dalang asked.
Lin Lu glanced at him, didn't get up, and said, "I was entrusted by the Wen family to come to your house to get golden fungus, I don't know how much you have prepared?" ”
"What kind of golden fungus?" Jiang Dalang didn't know much about the transaction between Mrs. Wen and Ying Bao, only knew that when Mrs. Wen was there, she often bought golden fungus from Ying Bao, but never accepted other people's.
Ah Qiu was afraid that his master would conflict with the Jiang family again, so he hurriedly explained: "My family Langjun was entrusted by the Wen family to collect the agreed mushrooms. ”
Jiang Dalang was surprised: "It's not the right time to harvest the golden fungus at this time, our fungus ears have not been planted for a long time, and they haven't grown well yet." ”
