Too many people asked for rice seeds, and the situation was very chaotic. In the chaos, if you push and fight, accidents may easily occur. Weak Shui was afraid of accidents, so he hurriedly comforted him loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, my rice has been returned to the imperial court. Then the Yamen will have something to do." After the autumn harvest, everyone can just go to the yamen to buy. This time Guantian has also planted the third season of rice, so you don’t have to worry about not having rice seeds to sell. And for the third season of rice, we picked it from late rice. This time It’s not enough, there is still a batch left for the autumn harvest, there will definitely be no shortage of rice seeds.”
Magistrate Zhang also hurriedly said: "Yes, I guarantee that the rice seeds of the third season of rice in Shaxi County will definitely be enough for the people of our county, so there is no need to rush to buy rice seeds. Let the weak families use these seeds first." The next harvest is weighed. And the rice seeds must be carefully selected.”
However, there are still some people who are not at ease and want to buy it sooner rather than later. They insist on begging people from weak families to agree to sell a few kilograms to them first, because they are afraid that they will not be able to buy it by then.
"There's no need to choose. I just want 50 kilograms of rice per mu to make 1,636 kilograms of rice as grain seeds! Weak water, Uncle Niu brought you down from the mountain before and sold me tens of A pound of rice seeds, just tell me whether you can give uncle this face?"
"Me too. Weak Shui sold me 30 kilograms. I've seen that your millet hasn't become shriveled when it's passed through the windmill! I've seen it all. The grains are very full and can be used as grain seeds. Third Aunt was in your childhood. I hugged you when we were young and gave you half a sugar cane to eat. Didn’t you forget? I’ll sell you 30 pounds to my third aunt first!”
"Mrs. Lei, I was the one who helped deliver your baby..."
Each one of them started to build relationships in order to buy rice seeds, and they could pull off anything. Others, who had listened to the county magistrate's assurance that they would not be in a hurry, did not dare to give up when they saw this, and followed them to pester the weak families.
Otherwise, they are afraid that they will not be able to buy it when the time comes, and they are also afraid that the price will be too expensive and they will not be able to afford it.
After all, if word spreads about rice seeds with a yield of 1,000 kilograms per mu, people from other counties may come to buy them.
There are only so many rice seeds. Who doesn’t want to make money if they have money? If someone is willing to pay a high price to buy it, I don’t believe that the weak families and the yamen will not sell to each other. In this case, it will be the turn of ordinary people like them to buy?
Just like food in a disaster year, it is ridiculously expensive and they cannot buy it even if they want to.
Seeing this, Xiuxuan felt that if she didn't agree to these people today, the next weighing would be difficult. There were still a lot of rice waiting to be weighed to determine the yield.
This means that many people are powerful and can get things done quickly, but many people are also prone to bad things.
Ruoxuan pulled Xuanyuan Que to a table.
This table was moved out earlier to record production, and the extra table is now used to register people who want to buy rice seeds.
I also happened to have plenty of pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
Ruoxuan stood in front of the table and said loudly: "Any uncle or aunt who wants to buy rice seeds, come to me and register. After the rice seeds are picked out, you can come and buy them. As long as you register, we will leave them to you first."
Ruoxuan used spiritual power to transmit sounds, attracting everyone's attention.
The villagers quickly gathered around after hearing this.
Ruoxuan put a writing brush into Xuanyuan Que's hand and said, "Brother Xuanyuan, please register with me!"
Xiao Xuanhua has become more and more comfortable summoning a certain god, without having to worry about whether the other party will refuse.
After all, the other party has never refused, so you are used to the other party definitely agreeing.
Magistrate Zhang felt that Xuan Bao was really smart. He immediately thought of a way to deal with such a big scene. This cleverness was really endearing.
He immediately echoed loudly: "Fellow fellow villagers, if you want rice seeds, you can go to Xuanbao to register. Then take your household registration and land deed to the Yamen to buy. The quantity is not just for everyone to buy as much as they want. When the time comes, The Yamen will allocate the rice seeds according to the number of people and the land. When everyone hears this, come and line up. No jumping in line or making trouble, otherwise you will be disqualified from buying rice seeds."
As soon as the villagers heard this, they immediately went to the table in front of Xiuxuan and queued up. Even those women who were unreasonable and liked to jump in line did not dare to jump in line after hearing the county magistrate's words, so they queued up obediently.
Magistrate Zhang ordered two government officials to come over to help maintain order.
Seeing this, Yan Huan, Yan Jiaojiao, Zhang Lian and other children also ran over to help register.
He was punished to copy no less than a thousand pieces of the Thousand-Character Essay, and most of the villagers' names were common words, so they could all write them.
Suddenly the whole grain drying field returned to lively and orderly state.
After the yield per acre of the weak family came out, Magistrate Zhang did not stay long. He hurried back to check the yield per acre of the official land and wrote a memorial to report the matter.
This matter is too big and must be reported as soon as possible.
So he said goodbye to his weak family members.
The weak family had to weigh the rice harvested from more than 100 acres of fertile land until the end of the night.
A total of more than 170,000 kilograms of grain was collected!
It is absolutely unprecedented to harvest more than 170,000 kilograms from just over 100 acres of land.
Calculated, the yield per acre is not less than 1,550, close to 1,600.
It goes without saying that the weak family members are excited and happy.
Mrs. Lei has been laughing in her dreams these days.
Many villagers were unwilling to go home because they wanted to know how much grain the weak family had harvested this time. When they heard that it was 170,000 kilograms, the villagers were stunned.
"You won't be able to finish eating this in your lifetime, right?"
"Silly, that's not for eating, it's for selling as grain seeds."
"Isn't that a lot of money?"
"Are you talking nonsense? Grain seeds are much more expensive than selling rice directly! And this is rice with a yield of 1,000 kilograms per mu. It is more than ten cents and eighty cents per kilogram more than ordinary rice seeds, so people are rushing to buy it!"
"The weak family will make a fortune this time!"
"It's not just the weak family, the village chief's family, the Shusen family, they all made a fortune!"
"Why was I so stupid and didn't follow suit?"
"It doesn't matter. It will be the same from planting in the future. You won't make any money. At least you won't have to worry about going hungry anymore!"
"That's right, the yield per acre is 1,500 kilograms! One acre is enough for food! If you have several acres of farmland at home, you will have a lot of surplus food throughout the year!"
"Haha, my family has three acres of land! We plant three seasons a year and harvest tens of thousands of kilograms of grain! It's coming, it's coming!"
That night, no one in the whole village could sleep except for Xiuxuan, and they were all happy!
They all wish that time would go faster so that they could plant thousands of kilograms of rice per mu.
In the next two days, people came to weak families every day to buy rice seeds.
As a result, Mrs. Lei didn't have to do anything, she was busy dealing with these people.
Fortunately, two days later, it rained and spring plowing officially started. Everyone was busy plowing the fields and planting rice seedlings, but fewer people came.
Of course, there are also some people who are very smart and come to ask weak families if they have more seedlings and want to buy seedlings.
In this way, they can plant rice with a yield of thousands of kilograms per mu in advance.
In addition to the weak families, they also asked the village chief and several other families who had planted the third season of rice with the weak families to buy them.
However, even if there were many seedlings, there would not be many more, and the seeds were not free of charge, so they were all rejected.
After another ten or eight days of busy work, the weak family finally planted all the fields and planted the fields that should be planted.
The Ruoshui brothers immediately rushed back to the city before it got dark.
They haven't returned to the study for several days, and they don't know if the books in the study have been bought. They have to quickly send the books they copied during the night to the study.
As soon as we returned to the study, the shopkeeper said happily: "My boss, I just received a big business from an academy. They ordered 10,000 books for our study."
