Yang Dayong was quite surprised. In just two days, they dug so many yams that even the tram could not deliver them all.
Of course, the more goods, the better. Before others know about this stuff, you can make a lot of money first.
Yang Dayong not only agreed to enter the village to load the goods, but also followed the car there in person. The Yang family's freight train arrived very early.
It was just dawn, and Su Qing was waiting for Yang Dayong's car at the entrance of the new courtyard. Zhu Xiuyun brought all the yams at home and was sorting them out, trying to clean up the soil so that they looked better.
The Su family's new courtyard is located at the entrance of the village. The Li family was an outsider at that time, so the house was built on the outside.
As soon as Yang Dayong entered the village, he saw Su Qing waving at the roadside. He asked the driver to stop, opened the door and jumped out of the truck.
"Grandpa Yang, you came in person. I'm sorry to bother you again. If there weren't too many things, we would have sent them directly."
Yang Dayong put down his hand and laughed: "Haha, Qingqing, I'm not afraid of having too much. I can eat as much as I can. How many did you dig? Yams are wild after all. No matter how many there are in the mountains, there is a limit, right?"
"Grandpa Yang, the yield of yam is not low. No one has dug it for many years. The land we found is not small. This time we almost dug it all.
I don't know if they can still grow in the spring, but they are everywhere in the mountains, and I guess there are still a lot of them. Once they sprout in the spring, they can't be eaten, and most of the nutrients will be lost to supply the growth of the vines on the ground. "
When Yang Dayong heard this, he nodded and said:
"That's good. There is no limit to how many times I can buy them before spring begins. Mingyue City yams are in hot demand right now! Everyone has money and no land to buy them. It will definitely be easy to sell if I bring them back."
"These sacks have been packed at Grandpa Yang's door. There are quite a few in the yard. You can load them into the car. Grandma and I are very tired from the past two days and can't help anymore."
Su Qing pushed open the courtyard door and pointed at the sacks all over the courtyard.
Zhu Xiuyun was still cleaning the yams. Qingqing said that the soil should be cleaned a little to make it look cleaner, otherwise the soil would also take up the weight and Grandpa Yang would suffer.
Hearing the sound of the courtyard door being pushed open, he looked up and saw Yang Dayong, who said happily:
"Boss Yang, you're here. Sorry, we dug too many yams."
Zhu Xiuyun was really embarrassed. She didn't know whether the yams were good or not, so the three of them dug a lot of them like crazy. People in the village asked them what they were digging for and that they couldn't eat them as staple food. They all ignored it.
"Not much, not much, I want as much as I can, the more the better, Sister-in-law Zhu, all the yams I brought back last time were all robbed. I specially took them for testing. They are rich in nutrients and taste sweet, similar to sweet potatoes. , the customer response has been very good.”
Zhu Xiuyun felt relieved now, "Haha, that's good. I'm still afraid that you won't be able to save face and will buy so many yams from us even if you grit your teeth."
"Don't worry, Sister-in-law Zhu, yams are more popular than you think. The key is to only get one, and no one else has to sell them."
Originally, Yang Dayong was afraid that they wouldn't be able to dig much, but he didn't expect that Sister Zhu's family had so many people. How could the three families get together enough for a truck? Even if the yam trip was not in vain.
The workers following the truck ran over and neatly weighed and loaded several kilograms of yams.
When Yang Dayong paid Zhu Xiuyun, there were tens of thousands of interstellar coins, which made her smile from ear to ear.
Su Qing sighed, it's really not worth it. After two days of hard work, it's not as valuable as refining a potion by yourself. But grandma is happy.
Yang Dayong went to Meng's house and Uncle Su's house again to continue weighing, loading the truck and settling the bill.
The yams from three families fit into a freight train.
Yang Dayong left Shanquan Village happily and made an appointment to meet again after the New Year. Everyone should have a good rest for a few days during the New Year.
Large-scale cargo trucks like the Yang family seldom enter the village. Someone bought yams from three families. The villagers saw it and asked them what they were selling.
When everyone knew they were here to buy yams, they all stamped their feet and beat their chests, accusing their families of not being interesting enough and only caring about making a fortune for themselves, forgetting about the fellow villagers.
These words made Zhu Xiuyun very angry. Why should they tell everyone that yams grow there? Anyone who wants to dig them can just go up to the mountain and dig them.
They don’t know how much Boss Yang wants, and they can shout so that the whole village knows. If Boss Yang doesn’t want it, the villagers will definitely say worse things.
This is how ordinary people think. They care about small gains. In fact, no one is a very evil person. It’s just one word, poor! ! !
We are all from the same village, so we can't care too much about it. They do have some selfish motives and didn't tell anyone. Since everyone knows, it's time to talk about the yam.
Zhu Xiuyun said: "Okay, don't make any noise, everyone. Yams are fresh food. We don't know if they can be sold in big cities. Can other bosses buy them? How can we tell you? If someone doesn't want it, it won't be in vain. .
Boss Yang just said that he will come to collect the goods during the Chinese New Year. You can take as much as you want. After the Chinese New Year, you all go to dig in the mountains. That day when the boss comes, I tell you, remember to dig out the yams and make them clean. Don’t eat half of them. If it's soil and looks good, people will give you more money. "
"Really? You didn't lie to us?"
"It's not like I'm full and have nothing to do. I'm just kidding you. Believe it or not, I'm done. Qingqing, let's go home."
Hearing what Zhu Xiuyun said, the people in the village dispersed and no longer surrounded them. They all made up their minds to go up the mountain to dig yams tomorrow.
Even so, some people still spoke sourly, saying that Zhu Xiuyun, Wang Sanmei and the others were selfish and why didn't they tell them earlier if they could sell them for money.
Wang Sanmei was so angry that she almost went up to argue with someone, but Zhu Xiuyun dragged her back.
"Sister-in-law, listen to this. As soon as we sold two dollars, some people became jealous. They usually get something good when they go into the mountains. Who gives it to us? We don't owe it to anyone. Why should we say we are selfish?"
"Okay, there are plenty of yams in this village. You can dig them for several days if you just look for them. Qingqing said, we can also grow them ourselves. The yams we grow will grow better if we fertilize more. After all, there are a lot of wild ones in the mountains. If we all go digging, we will soon be extinct.”
Wang Sanmei and Wang Qian both looked surprised, "Ah, that thing can still be grown,"
"Of course we can grow it. If we grow it in cultivated fields, the price will probably be higher. The wild ones don't have as much energy as those grown in cultivated fields, and there's no danger in eating them."
Wang Qian then asked: "Auntie, how do you grow yams?"
Zhu Xiuyun said as he walked, "They are similar to sweet potatoes and potatoes. They are cut into pieces and planted in the ground. After small buds grow, a wooden frame is set up to let the yam seedlings climb hard. Qingqing said that any kind of edible plant has only Artificial cultivation can ensure sufficient supply. As long as we are the first to figure out how to grow yams, we will be ahead of everyone."
Several people who heard it nodded and planned to try it when they got home.
"It turns out it's that simple. When I go back, I will try planting a few in the planting field. There are many wild ones in the mountains. Once everyone digs them, even the weeds will be gone. If we can really grow them ourselves, the price will definitely be higher. high."
Even Su Feng, who had always been reticent, intervened.
"There is not an endless supply of things on the mountain. Yams are easy to find, and the price given by Boss Yang is high. It is like picking up money. All the people in the village will definitely dig up the mountain. We can't just watch. Tomorrow we will Go up the mountain and find another area to continue digging.”
A few people nodded. Su Qing and Meng Hang looked on helplessly. The elders chatted animatedly. They only had tens of thousands of interstellar coins, but they had to work hard. It was really not worth it! !
They knew that in Mingyue City, a meal or a piece of clothing for some people was more expensive than the yams sold today. Thinking about the lives of people in the city, and then looking at the village, the two of them felt inexplicably heavy.
