"Uncle, listen to me. I was grateful to the shopkeeper for selling tiger meat that day. He gave me a roasted one. This stuff is really delicious, soft and glutinous, delicious, and very sweet. The shopkeeper said that he I heard from foreigners that once grown, the yield of this thing is higher than that of rice, but they refused to disclose the planting method."
"This seed was given to me by the shopkeeper. He said that if I find a way to plant it, I will go to the county to find him, and he can find the seeds from outsiders."
"Uncle, you also know that my father is a juren. Although I don't get his attention at home, I have secretly read the books in his study. I have read about the cultivation of this crop in a cold book. The method is, when I go to town tomorrow, I will go to the bookstore and look for it. If it is a high-yielding crop as the shopkeeper said, then we will have more food."
After that, Ji Qingyao said that sweet potatoes can also be made into vermicelli, and melons can be used as snacks. Pei Ningyuan felt his head buzzing after hearing this, and temporarily lost the ability to think.
When Ji Qingqing finished speaking, Pei Ningyuan was completely shocked. He didn't expect that a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl could think of such a long-term thing. The key to the problem was that it was something that didn't even have a single character.
One of the things farmers look forward to most is to have a full stomach. But as farmers, they obviously grow the food, but what they eat is coarse grains that the rich people don't even look at. Even so, they They are still the same group of people who don’t have enough to eat.
After the autumn harvest every year, the official grain is paid, and part of the remaining grain is reserved for sowing. The remaining small part is sold in the county or town, and then the money from the sale is used to buy coarse grains for eating. Even if they only eat two meals of porridge a day, many people will still have difficulty persisting until next year's autumn harvest.
"Girl, do you know what you are talking about?" Pei Ningyuan is no longer as calm as when they first met, and he is impatient in his heart. If it is true as Ji Qingyao said, this is really a good thing that is beneficial to Xiaoxi Village.
Ji Qingyao just felt so tired. When did she talk to people so much? Why did she still get such a result after explaining for so long? What should she do if she had the urge to beat someone up.
He calmed down for a few seconds and suppressed the irritable factor in his heart: "Uncle, of course I know what you are talking about. Now you just need to help me buy the land and make it a red deed from the government. As for how to plant it, I will test it and get the results." If you come here, you will know.”
Ji Qingyao worked hard and said everything she wanted to say. She was afraid that the village chief would ask questions and gossip again, "Uncle, I want to trouble you with one more thing. I just came to Xiaoxi Village and am not familiar with the place. I want to talk to Gai. The person who owns the house needs to build a house of green bricks and tiles, so if he has someone he knows well, please help me find a servant for my niece."
"The land to build the house is just a piece of land circled on the hillside. There are seventy taels of silver here. It will be troublesome for uncle to buy the land. If the money is not enough, I will give it to uncle when I get back. I have to go into the mountain." Let’s go now, I’ll come see you later.”
After Ji Qingyao finished speaking, he put down the money and ran away without waiting for the village chief's reaction. Pei Ningyuan looked at a fifty-tael banknote on the table, two ten-tael silver ingots, and a dozen or so taels of broken silver. Finally, He shook his head helplessly, he was not as good as a little girl.
When the village chief's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Jiang, came in, she saw her husband's stupid expression. She slapped him awake and asked him what happened. Pei Ningyuan repeated what Ji Qingyao had just said, and this made her understand. shocked.
This girl is bold and domineering enough. She likes it, but she is still a little envious.
I envy a girl in her mid-teens and sixteens who is buying land and building a house. I think about the worries in my own family.
Why is such a good and capable girl not from my family?
Not only did the Jiang family have this idea, but Pei Ningyuan also had the same idea. At the same time, he scolded Ji Xiuwen who was far away in Dahe Village for not cherishing such a good daughter. There was also Song's vicious mother-in-law who didn't expect to pretend in front of others. He appears to be gentle and demure, but he is actually a rotten-hearted person.
In short, both Ji Xiuwen and his wife were on Pei Ningyuan's blacklist, which is the kind that can never be forgiven.
It is precisely because of this that Ji Xiuwen and his son wereted a lot of time searching for Ji Qingyao. By the time they found her, everything was irreversible.
In Ji Qingyao's words, if I'm sorry and useful, what else will the Yamen do?
Talking about the Ji family in Dahe Village, Ms. Song got up early in the morning and opened the courtyard door, but heard a thud. She was about to call out loudly, but she didn't expect to see her son, who was studying in Fucheng far away, lying at the door of her home.
The Ji family was in a panic. They called for doctors and boiled hot water for Ji Yunyuan to take a bath and change clothes.
Ji Yunyuan only woke up the next day.
