Chapter 215: The Two Hundred and Fifteenth Day of Being an Old Lady

The days passed by in July, and it was the hottest time of the year, everyone hid at home to escape the heat, and the old and young of the Hu family went into battle together, busy harvesting rice in the field.

That's right, the rice of the Hu family has grown!

At the beginning, the old lady planted the seedlings in advance, and the villagers still felt that the seedlings would not survive. As a result, the seedlings in Hu's field not only lived, but also matured quickly.

It's only four months now, and the seedlings are not only grown, but they also look quite full.

The old lady calculated that the time was almost up, and called the workers to the field to cut the seedlings. The Hu family couldn't stay idle, and they also came to join in the fun.

With a rice transplanter, how can there be a rice harvester?

The old lady completed the assembly of the seedling cutting machine early, and trained a group of workers to operate, each occupying an acre of land. The speed of the prototype cutting machine is very fast, and under the operation of well-trained workers, the rice in the field has been harvested in less than half a day. The people in the village, who were still hiding at home, came to see the excitement when they learned of the situation in Hu's field.

The village chief was even more excited, harvesting crops has been a troublesome thing since ancient times, and everyone has to work tirelessly for several days during the harvest season, and many people are tired and sick because of this. With the rice harvester, the labor of the farmers will be greatly reduced.

Such a tool for the benefit of the country and the people cannot be buried.

The village chief hurriedly asked, can this matter be reported to the county magistrate?

Naturally, it was reported.

If the old lady wanted to continue this business for a long time, she had to cooperate with the government.

The county magistrate reported the matter to the prince, and the Hu family's wood factory also received many orders.

The village chief stared at the rice cutter again, and saw that the Hu family's land was about to be cleared after half a day's work, and the village chief had something to say.

In fact, he was embarrassed, he wanted to order a batch of rice transplanters with the Hu family in the name of the village, and keep them for the villagers to use in the future.

What's so hard about that?

The old lady thanked the village chief for taking care of the Hu family, and she supplied this batch of machines to the village for free, how could the village chief accept it?

The old lady came up with a solution:

Tianjiazhuang is used as a test field for pesticides, and all expenditures in the field are borne by the government. Pesticides need test fields, and so do farm tools. The old lady signed an agreement with the village chief in her personal name, and in the future, Shanghe Village will be used as a test village for the Hujiamu Factory, and whenever new agricultural tools are produced, they will be tested in the fields in the village, and the experimental agricultural tools will belong to the village. In addition, the old lady also gave an extra sum of silver as a reward for cooperation.

The village chief excused himself, it was a matter of righteousness for the Hu family to provide the village with farm tools for free, how could they still collect extra money? The old lady thinks long-term, farming tools are one thing, and with the advent of double cropping rice, there is always a need for a vacant place for experiments. In those days, the fields had to support the family's livelihood, and no one wanted to do that unknown experiment.

The old lady asked that all the land in Shanghe Village be planted with rice provided by the Hu family next year, and that it should be planted according to her requirements. The old lady also said that if the crops grown in anyone's field next year are not as good as this year, she will compensate for the loss.

This is a big deal, and the village chief can't decide alone. He gathered all the prominent people in the village and asked for their opinions.

In the past, although the Hu family had a talented man, the life of the Hu family was not as good as day by day. Although Boss Hu has been imprisoned, the life of the Hu family is thriving.

Seeing that the Hu family's business is getting better and better, which one is envious and not jealous? Now the old lady is looking to lead the big guy to get rich together, and everyone agrees after thinking about it.

Even the worst preparation is that no crops can be grown in the field, and at least there is compensation from the old lady.

Everyone hit it off and signed an agreement with the Hu family.

The matter went smoothly, discussed in the morning and signed in the afternoon. When the people in the village learned of such a good thing, they didn't need the village chief's instructions, and they came to Hu's field to help.

The village chief selected 10 young and strong villagers to learn how to use the rice cutter. With the joint efforts of everyone, all the crops in the Hu family's field were cleaned up in just one day.

The Hu family planted seedlings early this year, but they didn't expect the crops to be really good. The heavy harvest is the joy of the harvest, and everyone's face is happy.

The village chief told the old lady not to worry, and he sent someone to take off the threshing tomorrow, taking advantage of the good sun to dry these days.

The old lady smiled silently, and the village chief felt that something was wrong when she saw it, and hurriedly asked her if she had invented a new machine for threshing?

The old lady told him that if he wanted to know, he would go to the threshing floor to-morrow and see.

With the old lady's words, the village chief could not sleep well this night, and always looked forward to seeing fresh farm tools tomorrow.

Finally, it was the second day. The village chief went to the threshing floor before dawn, and at first glance, there were people who were more active than him.

The people in the village heard the conversation between the old lady and the village chief yesterday, and they were also curious about what kind of farm tools could be used to remove the grain.

Yesterday was a busy day, and the old lady specially asked everyone not to get up early, to sleep back, and to be busy today.

Although the Hu family was concerned about the crops, they had a good sleep honestly when the old lady spoke.

When the Hu family went to the rice threshing floor, there were already many people inside and out.

The village chief was quite curious when he saw the old lady hurriedly greeting her, and then saw the large farm tools that the old lady was moving behind her.

The villagers and the village chief have the same curiosity, the small farm tools need to be moved by two people, the top and bottom are made of wood, there is a hole in the middle, and there is also a hole in the lower position, I don't know what it is used for.

The old lady came to the center of the threshing floor, where the rice from the Hu family's field had been moved yesterday. She instructed everyone to bring up the freshly made farming tools from the carpentry factory, and put the ears of rice into the openings on them.

The old lady told the village chief that it was called a threshing machine. She motioned for everyone to come forward, there was a small pedal next to the threshing machine, as the old lady stepped on the pedal, the threshing machine made a "clatter" sound, and the rice ears that originally entered from the top came out from the bottom of the mouth, and the grains were distinct.

Everyone was amazed by such a magical feature, and soon, someone wanted to try it. The old lady smiled and gave way to her place.

Unlike rice transplanters and harvesters, the threshing machine does not have a complicated operation, and can be used by simply pressing the pedal. Not to mention a strong man, even a child can operate it.

The people in the village treated it as a toy, and after playing with that, it was clearly a boring threshing floor, but it was like entering a playground.

Everyone here is still working on the threshing machine, and the old lady over there has someone carry a farm tool into the threshing floor.

The village chief always paid attention to the old lady's movements, and when everyone gathered at the threshing machine, he ran to the old lady.

This farm tool is called a threshing machine, which complements the threshing machine.

Pour the stripped paddy into the threshing machine, which is no longer a pedal next to the blower, but two long threads. As the two threads were pulled, a whirlwind blew in the blower, blowing away all the dander of the paddy. And there is a place to store dander under the grain blower, which will not cause dander to spread all over the sky.

The old lady only demonstrated it once, and everyone did.

The villagers who couldn't line up at the threshing machine gathered in front of the threshing machine, and everyone couldn't put it down, eager to replace the person who pulled the line immediately.

Before the Hu family could get started, they were kicked out of the threshing floor, in the words of the villagers: "You Hu family must have played a long time ago, leave a chance for the big guys to play." ”

Hu family: "......" saw someone rushing to work for the first time.

However, except for Hu Laosi, all of them have seen this thing for the first time, and they are also very curious!

With the active help of the villagers, the Hu family's rice was quickly cleaned up and only needed to be placed in the threshing floor to dry.

At this time, only the Hu family harvested rice, and only one family's grain was placed on the Nuoda site, but the villagers were stunned.

Without him, the rice that the Hu family cleaned up actually occupied the entire threshing floor, not to mention, there was not enough place to place.

The Hu family's land has been sold a lot because of Hu Boss's scientific expedition, and the hundred acres of fertile land in the past are now only forty or fifty acres, how can there be so much grain?

Not only were the villagers stunned, but the Hu family also found it incredible. Hu Laosan thought that this year's seedlings were seedlings raised by old grain, and everyone did not agree to use old grain at that time.

The village chief was so happy that he couldn't hide his smile, the Hu family's land has grown so much grain, and when the big guys will plant the seedlings given by the Hu family next year, will they be able to harvest so much grain?

The harvested rice was still drying in the threshing floor, and the Hu family began to plow the land again.

When everyone thought that the Hu family was going to plant some precocious things such as vegetables and fruits, the Hu family began to plant seedlings in the field.

This time, the Hu family has been very comfortable with the use of the rice transplanting machine, and several people have a machine for each person, and the seedlings will be planted quickly.

The people in the village are still strange threshing machines and threshing machines, and when they come to their senses, the Hu family's land has been planted.

The village chief was worried, it was summer, and the Hu family had only started farming, and they couldn't harvest it when autumn came. A good crop is beaten by frost halfway through, who doesn't feel distressed?

Because of his trust in the old lady, the village chief did not dare to raise his own questions. And the villagers have long recognized the old lady's words, and everyone only thinks that they are not smart enough, and they will never question the old lady's ability.

As for the Hu family?

The old lady is whatever she says.

After a few days of hurrying, the Hu family was too tired, but they were tired and happy. This year's harvest was much better than usual, and the orders from the woodworking mills were not dry, which also led to orders from the ironsmiths.

In just a few months, the Hu family went from needing to sell land to make a living, to now doing business with the government. The life of the family has changed drastically, and both food and clothing are comparable to those of the rich in the city.

The old lady felt that it was not enough, the heroine didn't know what was going on, she didn't want to make snacks to do chemical engineering, she was unkempt all day long, and a girl didn't want to dress up, and she entered the laboratory, and she couldn't even take care of eating.

The heroine is definitely going to marry the prince, and the etiquette of the Hu family is indispensable. Now that the shop is slowly on the right track, and a new shopkeeper has been promoted from below, the Hu family only needs to go to reconcile the accounts every once in a while. The old lady invited the old lady from the city, and from today on, everyone in the Hu family must learn the rules.
