When Mr. Xiaoman heard that some rabbits and chickens were given to the villagers to raise, he also nodded in agreement: If everyone is better off, the world will be peaceful and they will no longer lose their shame for a few pennies.
Now Er Rui and Xiao Man spend more and more time in the village, and Chunfeng and Xiao Man are basically doing the farm work in the mountains.
Chunfeng also has to manage the fungus, so cutting the rabbit grass has become a big deal.
The same goes for Qiaoyun and Jiangzhi.
When the two broods of chickens came out, there were dozens of them. They had to do housework and take care of the children, and now they had to make mosquito coils. It was impossible to control them.
Just keep as many chickens and rabbits as you can!
That night, Er Rui and Xiao Man did not come back.
They didn't talk until they got home the next night because Jiang Zhi punished Qin for delaying the construction site that day.
Tian Gui asked everyone to work overtime and catch up on the work overnight. Now the tiles in the warehouse have been covered.
Xu Errui and Xiao Man both hesitated about the Qin family's affairs in the village.
Er Rui scratched his head and said: "Mom, we are busy repairing the house these days, no, we don't know what happened!"
Jiang Zhi said that he would let the two of them take care of the trivial affairs in the village, and tell him everything he had to say.
They didn't expect to encounter such a thing as soon as they got off the mountain. They were so frightened that they didn't dare to come back. They only came back for business now that the house was covered with tiles.
Jiang Zhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Although she was angry that there was a person like Qin in the village and no one objected or spoke out about these things, she didn't blame Er Rui and Xiao Man.
The two of them were still young and busy working in the fields and building houses. They didn't think about these things at all. Even Li Laoshi didn't care.
Moreover, even if they knew it, they would have no experience in dealing with these trivial matters.
"It's okay. I don't blame you for this. I just need to learn smarter in the future. The rules I set at the beginning are not just words. If you make a mistake, you will be punished."
Er Rui and Xiao Man nodded repeatedly, but their eyes were still blank.
well! Forget it, it takes time to learn and grow. You can’t make a big fat man with just one bite.
Now that the warehouse has been covered with tiles, the next step is to pave the entire wall so that the herbs collected by the Xia family can be put in.
Er Rui and Xiao Man immediately said: "Uncle Tian said that it will take at most three days to pound out the land and let it dry before moving things in! The walls will also be powdered with lime, even for putting food in."
Jiang Zhi was very satisfied. She had gone to see the site. The wood was very good. Tian Gui and Xu Genyou were also responsible... Wait, she seemed to have forgotten something.
Jiang Zhi frowned: "Er Rui, you just said that apart from the herbs, what else can be put in the warehouse?"
Xu Errui blinked, and Monk Zhang Er was confused by his mother's reaction. He repeated again: "Put in herbs, we can live there, and we can also put in food..."
Yes, that’s it!
Jiang Zhi slapped his legs and shouted: "Grain! Oh no, where is our early corn?"
The dozens of acres of land in the village are planted with corn, and it is the earliest crop.
According to the growing season, corn sown in spring can be harvested in 100 to 120 days, and the second crop sown in summer can be harvested in 90 days.
It’s already time to sow the corn I planted in spring, why hasn’t there been any movement?
Xiao Man next to him was startled by Aunt Jiang's reaction and said hurriedly: "I went to the fields a few days ago to see that the corns are just wilting, so it shouldn't be time yet!"
Xu Genyou and Tian Gui are in charge of matters in the fields. They didn't tell them when they went down the mountain yesterday. I'm afraid they were too busy!
Jiang Zhi shook his head: "No, I have to go down the mountain to take a look tomorrow! In addition, I will send the prepared mosquito coils to Baicaotang in Lihua Town."
She really doesn't worry about those young corns. If she misses the time to grow into old corns, her money will see its value depreciate.
However, Jiang Zhi thought that Xu Errui and Xiao Man were too tired, so he stopped talking and decided to look at the crops before talking.
The next day, when Jiang Zhi went down the mountain to the field, he saw a field of young corn that had just wilted and sprouted.
Tear open the green shell to reveal the neat and shiny corn grains inside.
Pinch open a layer of skin, and there is still a little white juice coming out. It is just right to eat tender and cooked, and it is also suitable to eat if it is older and eaten.
Next to her, Xu Genyou and Tian Gui came to the field with her.
In fact, no matter how busy they were every day, they would come to the fields to take a look. They didn't forget about the crops at all, they just didn't say it out loud.
At this time, the two people's eyes lit up when they saw the torn corn sticks.
Even now that the corn has grown, they have never been willing to tear it open and look at it.
At this time, you can see that these corn grains are not only plump, but also full of tops, which means the yield must be high.
Unlike the two people who were thinking about production, Jiang Zhi only saw money.
She immediately said to Xu Genyou and Tian Gui: "Arrange manpower immediately, and we will do it overnight tonight."
When Xu Gen heard this, he gasped in pain: "Auntie, don't sell the young corn! We only need to wait another half month, and we can harvest a few more buckets of grain!"
Although they had said before when planting corn, they would plant two crops, with the spring sowing eating young corn and the summer sowing harvesting old corn, but now the two of them couldn't bear to part with it.
They also want to put it off for a while and forget about it when they get older.
Especially when Xu Genyou saw it at this time, his heart ached at the thought of the tender corns that were growing wildly all over the ground and were about to be broken.
No one in the farmers is willing to eat young corn, unless they really want to eat it and break off one or two sticks to satisfy their craving.
This is grain. If you break it halfway, it will not weigh enough.
Moreover, the land was fertile this year, and these corns did not even wilt when they were transplanted.
During the flowering season, Er Rui asked everyone to shake the flowers for pollination at noon, which is why they grew so well.
"We agreed to sell young corn!" Jiang Zhi said.
"On the surface, it looks like we are charging three to five dou more, but in fact we are receiving hundreds of cents less. We must break it off before it's too late."
She was actually a little angry.
I had already planned how to plant, so what if I suddenly changed my mind now?
Moreover, the crop of corn sown in the summer has also grown well. Now that the weather is warm, it will take a few days to reach a height of one foot. When it is time to transplant, the two crops will collide.
Not only Xu Genyou was reluctant to part with it, but Tian Gui also hesitated: "Village Chief Jiang, we have always arranged for people to keep vigil at night. We just need to wait a little longer and sell it next time, okay?
Otherwise, bring a few less sticks to try, maybe no one will want them! "
He couldn't bear it either.
I have never sold tender products before, only dried ones.
Tian Gui was even a little doubtful, would anyone buy the corn that was as tender as water? Why don't you take some to try first? If others don't want it, you don't have to suffer heavy losses.
Hearing Tian Gui's words, Jiang Zhi agreed and had to give it a try.
But instead of sending a few sticks to the city, they should break them off immediately and send them to Zhang Juntou.
Zhang Jun had said before when he first allocated the land to her that the tender corn would score more points for him.
Now is the time to deliver on your promise.
A large basket of tender corn with its husks was delivered to the medical shed that had been converted into a patrol camp.
Zhang Juntou looked at the plump corn with joy: "Hey, I really ate it now! Hurry!"
He waved to the orderly: "Bring these corns to the stove, boil them with water and eat them."
Jiang Zhi said with a smile: "Inspector Zhang, do you know that tender corn used to be sold in Pingchuan County?"
