At first, the villagers who borrowed water from the village gave them food and copper coins, but now Liujia Village has lost water before Jiangjiazhai, and the closest village is Linjia Village, which they hated and exploited at the beginning.

Therefore, during this period, the village chief of Liujia Village came to visit every now and then. In addition to borrowing water, they also wanted to build a row of bamboos from the back mountain to directly lead the water to Liujia Village. In this way, the rice in their village might also be able to be harvested.

Save some.

Jiang Yan listened to the gossip of her two daughters-in-law all day long, and she also knew more or less about the situation in several nearby villages. The man in Linjia Village was a smart man, and he knew the disadvantages of big trees attracting wind, so he agreed to Liujia Village's request a long time ago.

He understands very well that if the water shortage situation in several nearby villages can be solved, even if the harvest in Linjia Village is increased, it will be safe and sound. If everyone cannot survive, Linjia Village will still be able to eat and drink well, even if they are not bandits.

, they will all turn into bandits, and then Linjia Village will be a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

The afternoon passed quickly, and before it was time for dinner, the village chief led a large group of people in. Jiang Yan said that making money was now a major issue in the village. Everyone was thinking about it and wished they could get involved right away. It would be so profitable.

The bowls are full.

So all afternoon, not many people went to the fields. They all watched in the village. As soon as they saw the village chief going out, they gathered in twos and threes behind. By the time they reached the gate of Lin's house, there was already a huge group of people.

.

Among them was Wang Cuihua's family, who had just been pissed off at noon. Some uninformed villagers tried to find out from her how Aunt Jiang made money. Wang Cuihua's face was so angry that she didn't want to know. Seeing her

With such a face, the villagers didn't dare to ask any more questions, and all followed the village chief expectantly.

"Jinhua, pour a few cups of tea, the village chief is here." Jiang Yan shouted towards the back room. Her room was small, so it was impossible to let everyone in. The village chief and his family came in, and the villagers could only chat outside.

It was very lively, and there were even people talking around the horse.

The village chief stepped into the house, and his two sons followed him in. Not long after he sat down, Lin Xi led Lao Wu and Lin Yousheng in.

After everyone sat down, Jiang Yan said: "Village chief, I plan to ask the villagers to help grow a condiment, this is it." Then she took out the pepper seeds she bought in the mall in advance and continued: "I

If you want to plant fifty acres of land, there are about 200 households in the village. It is impossible for every household to be able to plant it, so I thought about asking the village chief to select dozens of households in the village to plant a few acres of land."

The village chief wanted to hold Jiang Yan's hand, and he said excitedly: "Farming is good! Our village is full of Lao Ba style, and they understand the trouble of doing things in the field. If you ask them to do other things, they won't necessarily do it."

Yes."

"But how are you going to plant this? Are you harvesting leaves or vegetable stalks? Fifty acres of land is a lot to plant. Xiaojiang, will you finish harvesting by then?" The village chief said with a confused look on his face: "What if?

The village helped plant it, but you won’t be able to harvest it all by then, and everyone doesn’t know what it is, so what if it’s thrown into your hands?”

The village chief put it bluntly. He was thinking about the villagers wholeheartedly. If Aunt Jiang couldn't harvest this common vegetable, the villagers could spontaneously go to the town to sell it. But he had never seen this thing before.

.

Jiang Yan smiled and said in a firm voice: "Don't worry, I will definitely want it. I will harvest as much as I can then. One acre of these peppers can produce about 800 kilograms. If you take good care of it, you can get more."

I charge three cents per catty, and if it is dried and ground like this, it will be charged five cents per catty."

She pointed to a bit of dried chili that came out of the bowl. This was the wild chili that had been picked in the mountains. The color was not red enough, but after being dried and ground, it was almost the same as the chili noodles bought in the store.

The village chief secretly calculated in his mind. If this amount is true, one acre of land can earn almost two taels of silver, and fifty acres of land is one hundred taels! God, when has the village ever had so much money? This is a huge amount of income.

ah!

If Xiaojiang can really accept them all, the village will not have to worry about anyone starving to death this year! When the weather gets cold, maybe the family can add some winter clothes, so that they will not starve or freeze, and they can live a good year comfortably!

The more he thought about it, the brighter the village chief's eyes became. He looked at Jiang Yan as if he were looking at a walking silver ingot. He shouted excitedly: "Xiao Jiang! This is not a joke! I have a way to find someone in the village to help plant it.

But you have to make sure you can accept it when the time comes, otherwise I won’t be able to explain it to the village."

Jiang Yan nodded: "Don't worry about this. I have signed a cooperation agreement with the restaurant in the town. As soon as one kind comes out, someone will come to harvest it. This pepper matures very quickly, and the fruit can be harvested in about three months."

Already."

Lin Yousheng immediately echoed: "Old Village Chief Lin, don't worry, Xiao Jiang is very powerful now. The owner of the restaurant didn't take anything but gave Xiao Jiang a deposit first. Old Wu and I were stunned on the spot."

Old Wu, who was named, quickly nodded in agreement. There was no expression on his face, and the lines on his face were cold and hard. This serious look was unconvincing for no reason.

The village chief furrowed his sparse eyebrows and pondered carefully for a while before he remembered who the person in front of him was: "Old Wu, I haven't seen you in the village for a long time."

The village chief looked at Old Wu calmly, and then at Jiang Yan, wondering how these two incompatible families got together. In the past, Aunt Jiang scolded them the most and harshest in the village. What happened now?

It's even reconciled.

Jiang Yan smiled awkwardly. She naturally knew what the village chief was thinking. She coughed twice and continued: "It's up to the village chief to find people in the village. For future planting matters, you can discuss it with Angkor and Yousheng."

."

"In addition, I have another thing. I want to ask the village chief to find some people in the village who can build houses."

When the village chief heard this, he immediately asked: "Do you want to build a house?"

Jiang Yan nodded and said, "There are a lot of people in the family, and there are only two rooms. It's hot and it's hard for everyone to be crowded together. I'm thinking of repairing the house, building two more rooms, and building a stable and a sheepfold."

"

The village chief stroked his beard: "This is not difficult. We have people who can do it in our village. I will select people when I go back tonight and let them come over tomorrow. You can help the village find water sources and give everyone a chance to make money. You

The money to repair the house will come from our village."

As he spoke, the village chief confirmed again and again: "You can definitely harvest the peppers after you plant them!"

Although Aunt Jiang has changed a lot and is no longer as cunning as before, the village chief is still a little panicked. If Aunt Jiang really refuses to accept her, then he, the village chief, will have committed a serious crime.

Jiang Yan knew that the village chief trusted her now, so she smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, you just need to find someone to plant seeds. As long as they are willing to plant seeds, I will give them some deposits in advance, and I don't have to bother the village with repairing the house.
