The Leisurely Countryside of the Farmer’s Daughter-in-law - Chapter 784
Chapter 784 Pull away
Potatoes and sweet potatoes have not been dug up yet, but all the rice that was dried and put into the warehouse was taken away by Mr. Cheng.
It is said that it is reserved for next year as seeds, and Yang Laner’s rice planting in the north can be regarded as breaking the precedent in history.
Master Cheng wants to vigorously promote it in the area under his jurisdiction, but he can’t do it without seeds!
Rice is rare in the north, not to mention the border with the enemy.
Rice is very rare, not to mention rice with shells that can be used as seeds!
Even if you, Mr. Cheng, are eloquent, Yang Lan’er will fight for it.
In the end, I didn’t keep what I ate, but next year’s rice seeds were successfully kept.
Actually, even if the seeds left behind, Yang Lan’er can’t, she can only eat them.
She will use space to produce next year’s seeds.
Even so, she will still do what should be done.
The rice in the elder brother’s house was only the seeds, and the others were all taken away by Mr. Cheng.
Based on the market price, a few hundred acres of land yielded tens of thousands of catties, except for the seeds.
Zhou’s money is similar, but she is the complete opposite of Yang Lan’er, she is very excited.
“Lan’er, the income from the paddy field alone is two hundred taels a year, which is considered as other output in the village. No wonder in the past, anyone in the village who had money in his hand would buy the land.”
The money came too easily. She just took care of it for a year, gave a few orders, and waited to collect the money when the autumn harvest came.
This is the first money she has earned by her own ability, so she must make good use of it.
“Sister-in-law thinks the farm makes money?”
“Well, the main thing is that it doesn’t take much effort, and I don’t need to worry too much. I think this is safe.”
oops! The other side of her farm is full of wasteland, and after the autumn harvest is over, she will arrange for a steward to recruit people to continue to open up the wasteland.
This thing her home totaled.
She told Yang Lan’er to let her know when she was selling potatoes and sweet potatoes, and she couldn’t wait to return in a hurry.
After seeing off Mrs. Zhou, she turned around and saw Yang Lan’er sitting on a chair in a daze.
“Madam thinks farming is not worthwhile?” Gu Yu asked.
Mainly because compared with Zhou’s jumping up and down, Yang Lan’er seemed too calm.
“It’s not that it’s not worth it, but I just think it’s too difficult to make a fortune by farming.”
If not, in later generations, whoever says that their country is a big agricultural country and relies on agriculture to support a country, don’t think that they must be poor and backward.
In her previous life, her country was also dominated by agriculture at first, and then slowly developed into industrial and high-tech industries.
“That’s right.” Gu Yu sighed.
The combined annual income of all the farms in the mansion is not as good as the monthly dividends of the cement factory. This…
Forgive Gu Yu for being poor in words.
“When Xiao Jiu comes back, you ask him to go to Qi’s mansion to urge him to see if he has researched the sewing machine? If not, speed up.”
Yang Lan’er got up and went into the study alone.
She didn’t know what was wrong, but she felt a sense of urgency.
Xiao Jiu came back and listened to Gu Yu’s message, turned around and went out again.
When he came back, it was already the beginning of the night.
After a day of running outside, I was tired and hungry.
After a quick wash and dinner, I wanted to lie in bed and rest for a while.
The boy who served him came to report, but his wife was still waiting for him in the study.
Xiao Jiu wailed in her heart, and got up resignedly.
Really got up.
If he hadn’t been practicing martial arts, he might have been exhausted long ago!
“Ma’am.”
“Well, you sit down.” Yang Lan’er raised her head from the drawing, and found that Xiao Jiu was here, so she quickly asked him to sit down and rest.
“Your complexion is not very good. You should pay more attention to rest. Only by combining work and rest can you work better.”
Yang Lan’er knew that what she said was hollow, so she pursed her lips and said, “It’s really too busy, so you should promote a few subordinates who are good at working with you.”
“Mrs. Xie is concerned. When you meet a suitable one, bring it to your wife for review.” Xiao Jiu sat down, took an apple and ate it.
“This apple tastes amazing.”
Yang Laner nodded with a smile, of course the taste is good, this is produced by Space, and asked again: “How is the progress of General Qi?”
“General Qi hasn’t been to the mansion these days to accompany the young masters. He is just busy with this matter. He said soon! After the test is completed, the craftsmen can make a large number of them.”
“Well, when the time comes, you will cooperate with the people on his side, how to arrange it?”
Yang Lan’er is wondering whether to set up a sewing machine factory?
“And…” Xiao Jiu took a big bite of the fruit, “General Qi said that this time he has put in a lot of effort and his brain power has been severely depleted, so he needs to make up for it. This time he will take 50% of the shares.”
Yang Lan’er felt that this was the right thing to do. She didn’t do much this time, and he was responsible for the design and follow-up technical problems.
She felt that she took 50% of the money because she took advantage of Qi Xiang.
“General Qi also said, let you…” Xiao Jiu observed her face, “If you have any good things to refresh his brain, send some to him.”
Yang Lan’er sneered, thinking that he had changed, but when she turned her head to see, it turned out that she was still the unscrupulous oil hole slipper for food.
“The next time you go, see if there is any delicious food in our house, and take a copy with him. After all, if you want a horse to run, you have to feed the horse, right?”
“Yes, the subordinate must bring your words with you.”
After all, he didn’t like this man either, so he jumped up and down because of his ability.
If Qi Xiang knew what Xiao Jiu was thinking, he would definitely give him a sword.
His image has always been stern and noble, and he regards the ordinary as nothing, okay!
Then the two exchanged some more things to do in industries such as spinning mills, weaving factories, garment factories, and cement factories in which the royal family has shares.
Finally, Yang Lan’er gave him all the bank notes in his hand.
Xiao Jiu didn’t answer, but looked at Yang Laner suspiciously.
“Take these banknotes, and give me some time to exchange them for silver or gold.”
Xiao Jiu took the wooden box, “Did something happen?”
Otherwise who wants to walk around with heavy silver ingots?
Yang Lan’er couldn’t explain it either, she couldn’t say she felt a sense of urgency, could she?
“It’s just a personal hobby. I’m afraid that the banknotes will get wet or burnt, and I don’t feel safe. Silver ingots are more reliable!”
Oh, Xiao Jiu disagrees.
After the potatoes were harvested, it rained a few times in Pengcheng.
After a few autumn rains, a few autumn rains, people in Pengcheng directly changed from thin autumn clothes to thin jackets.
Zhou and the long-term workers are in a hurry. The sweet potatoes have not been confiscated yet.
Is it raining forever? Don’t let the ground freeze, or you will lose a lot!
Yang Lan’er is also in a hurry, but it’s going to rain, and she wants to get married, what can she do?
I can only persuade my sister-in-law to let nature take its course!
After the weather is fine, all the sweet potatoes are harvested.
Yang Lan’er asked the housekeeper Wang Qing to choose some potatoes and sweet potatoes of the right size and without any defects to send to a few acquaintances.
All the food was harvested, and several cities on the border defense line were also attacked by barbarians several times.
It’s just that the attack is not as violent as before. I don’t know if the last long-distance attack hurt the foundation, or it’s just a test.
The border is not peaceful, and the long-term workers are not idle.
