"Youqing's family, my family's sweet potatoes from a few acres of land were transplanted from your field. At that time, you were very kind and didn't want our money, and my big head couldn't take advantage of your family in vain. My family is here to help you harvest sweet potatoes, and you don't need money. I don't care about others, but I can't take advantage of your family. ”

Shen Yunxi was surprised. He thinks that Tian is too cautious and likes to take advantage of others. He didn't expect to be so open this time.

Tian Ergou didn't ask for it either. "My sweet potatoes are also cut from your sweet potato seedlings. Without you, how many acres of sweet potatoes would we have?"

They may not know how much sweet potatoes are worth, but when they harvest them, they will be able to eat enough, which is gratitude.

It turned out that the people who took the money also put the money on the table one after another.

Shen Yunxi couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly said, "I'll give you money and let you work for me." You can't go without pay, that's a matter of course. Even if you don't take the sweet potato seedlings away, I will pick them and throw them away to prevent the leaves from growing too much and the sweet potatoes below will not grow. ”

"It's not good. I can't ask you for money. Tian Datou went far, and he was determined not to want Shen Yunxi's salary.

People also left one after another, not mentioning Shen Yunxi's salary.

A villager patted his thigh as he walked and said, "Mother, is what Youqingjia said true?" If you don't remove the extra sweet potato seedlings above, the sweet potatoes below won't grow?"

Tian Ergou nodded: "Isn't it obvious?" If you grow up on it, you won't grow underground. ”

"I was lazy and didn't think it mattered, so I didn't pinch off the extra fork. Is it too late?" The villager was about to cry. Others have already collected five or six thousand catties, but his family has not collected enough, it is difficult not to feel distressed!

Tian Ergou angrily scolded his nephew and said, "I told you a long time ago that you can't be careless in farming. If you can cheat the land for a while, the land can cheat you for a year. ”

"Uncle, I know I was wrong. Remind me more in the future!"

"Uncle, these sweet potatoes are so delicious. How much can a pound sell for? Can you sell it for 30 wen a pound?"

Tian Ergou rolled his eyes and said, "What do you say? If we collect 5,000 catties per mu and 30 cents per catty, we can sell 150 taels of silver per acre. Do you think you are the kind of gold and silver that is on the ground?"

Tian is in a good mood. He smiled and said, "Brother Ergou is right. Don't be greedy. A penny a pound. Five thousand catties per mu is five taels of silver. ”

······

Every family in the village was excited. They often saw Shen Yunxi and the village chief selling the harvest in the fields for money. Now they can also sell sweet potatoes.

This is a new crop with high yields. Maybe it can be sold for a higher price and a lot of money.

Zheng Guizhen is responsible for cooking, taking care of the children, and doing housework at home today.

At this time, she looked at the sweet potatoes at the door and was speechless for a long time. Today, a large number of sweet potatoes are harvested on one acre of land.

"Fourth brother and sister, this sweet potato yield is really high." Zheng Guizhen sighed, holding a sweet potato in her hand, and the baby seemed to treat a child.

It is delicious and productive. This is a life-saving thing sent by God.

Shen Yunxi smiled and said, "Yes, it's just that sweet potatoes are not easy to keep." They need to be kept in a cool place. When it's dried outside, we can put them in the cave. ”

"We can cut them into slices, dry them, and keep them for a longer period of time," Zheng thought. With so many sweet potatoes, we will never have to worry about food shortages in the future. ”
