"An Ran is for everyone's good. If we stayed there, how could we know if we could succeed?" The village chief looked at him and sighed since no one was willing to try this.
"Village Chief, you don't have to worry about it, but if you don't have such a harvest, everyone can't eat. After all, if you are used to planting things, it can make the whole family have enough food for a year." As soon as this person said, he was in line with many people.
"Since that's the case, everyone will part. There was nothing else." Seeing that everyone was unwilling to do so, the village chief waved his hand and said.
"Anran, I, I want to plant it." At this time, Zhang Youcai hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind to stand up and say.
"Zhang Youcai, aren't you crazy? There are ten people in your family." As soon as Zhang Youcai finished speaking, someone looked at Zhang Youcai and suddenly spoke.
"Yes, Youcai, you have to think it through clearly. Don't talk about the villagers in the countryside, we didn't advise you." At this time, someone said again. If he didn't say this, if Zhang Youcai's family had no food at that time and the family begged the people to ask for it, they were all from the villagers in the countryside, how could they not give it to me?
"Don't worry, if it comes to the autumn harvest, I, Zhang Youcai, have no harvest, then I will take my wife, children and parents to leave Xinghua Village. Even if I go out to beg, I will not ask everyone for a grain of food." Zhang Youcai was really forced to do this this time. After all, he is a man, and he can't raise his head if he can't support his family. Now that the villagers say this, he has no choice but to swear like this.
"Oh, if you don't plant, don't plant it. How can you say it's amazing? Youcai's family has been in this Xinghua Village for generations." The village chief couldn't bear it. Zhang Youcai was a good person, but the burden on the family was on him alone.
"Dear fellow villagers, it's okay if you don't plant it. Just go and get the seedlings from me if you want to plant it. If everyone is not busy recently, please help me save this. The salary is still fifty cents a day, and it's okay for women this time, and children over twelve years old can do it." Seeing that almost everyone was unwilling to plant it, Su Liu told me about the recruitment.
"What, children can do." It's normal for women, but now children can make money. Which family in this village has few children?
"Yes, there are children over twelve years old and hard-working at home. They can go up the mountain together tomorrow, and the wages are the same." Su Liu said with a smile.
"Anran, my family has three children, all over fourteen."
"Anran, I have two, Erni, you have seen them, they are so diligent and hungry!"
"Anran, Anran..."
The villagers were in a state of excitement for a moment.
"Okay, okay, you can bring some with you." Su Liu smiled and stretched out his hand to comfort the crowd and said.
There were so many people and hundreds of acres of land, which took only a few days to plant. When Su Liu thought of this, she felt happy. It seemed that these sweet potatoes would be able to grow well soon.
When he returned home, Mr. Zhang asked in confusion, "Liu'er, women can be considered labor, but is it not possible for children?"
"Dad, children have children's work." Su Liu smiled and said, "Each three people had a piece of soil, one digging ditches, one laying seedlings and one building soil. This way, the work is just right, and Su Liu's heart has long been determined how to do things.
"So that's the case. You have an idea. No matter what you do, my dad will believe you." Dad Zhang said with a smile. In his eyes, although the child is useless, he thought that Su Liu could start with hundreds of acres of land, so it naturally required a lot of people to handle. When he looked at her with a strong look, his heart was relieved.
The next morning, Su Liu gathered several women to pick seedlings early.
"Everyone follows my demonstration and use this fold gently. There are small blades in the fold, which can be easily picked off." Su Liu ignored the juice of these sweet potatoes that would touch the body and could not wash it off. He demonstrated it to people in a very good manner and sent each fold to their hands.
These women are good at doing farm work. The seedlings from several acres of land quickly became one of the sleepy and were picked.
They were equipped with large backpacks, and dozens of backpacks were installed.
Soon, it was dawn. After dinner, everyone consciously carried the seedlings and went up the mountain, so Su Liu was naturally not out of the way.
These are good people who often do farm work. They walked very quickly and quickly left Su Liu and his group far behind.
Everyone knew in their hearts that Su Liu was in poor health, so when they arrived on the mountain, they consciously sat down and waited for Su Liu to come up.
When Su Liu came to the mountain, he was stunned. There must be at least one hundred people, and the proportion is also very good, with about twenty children.
"Okay, everyone is here, so I'll demonstrate it to you first." Su Liu smiled, and Zhang Dabao immediately dug a ditch under the soil stalk as she said. Su Liu picked up the sweet potato leaf seedlings and placed one at about fifteen centimeters. Then, Mr. Zhang walked behind quickly with his eyes and hands to dig the soil to cover it, and stepped on it tightly with his feet.
The series of movements were very smooth. These villagers all farmed for a long time, and naturally they learned it at a glance, and it was easy for children to learn it. The children would do the things they put on sweet potato leaves.
Adults just dig trenches and step on them tightly.
"Okay, everyone just need to plant it according to my method. Have you seen it clearly?" Su Liu went all the way, planted a ditch, and then returned to everyone and said.
"It's very simple to see clearly." A villager asked and laughed. This method is simpler than corn, and it's almost like growing potatoes.
"That's good. Also, I want to tell you something. Today, there are three people in groups, and each three people have one batch of soil. When the work is over, the first three groups of people will have the most crops, and one or two silver will be rewarded with three people." Su Liu smiled and said. In this way, the efficiency can be improved and everyone will do their best to plant it.
"One tael of silver." Before it even started, some villagers couldn't wait.
"But everyone tells me that Uncle Zhang will still be a supervisor and he will work, but he will come to check from time to time. Only when you do well can you get rewards. If you want to take advantage of the situation, you can live as long as you plant the seedlings. I explained today, and I don't want unpleasant things to happen at that time." Su Liu smiled and continued.
"Anran, don't worry, we are not Zhang Youli's family, we are sure to plant it well." A villager said jokingly at this time.
"Hahaha, yes, yes, we are all honest, not like Zhang Youli's family, they are all slick." A villager said with a smile.
"Since that's the case, I'm relieved. All the land has been handed over to you." Su Liu also laughed, and the division of labor was quickly divided.
"Liu'er, why are you so familiar with these things?" On the way back, Dongfang Mingche asked, "These are turning over the ground, repairing reservoirs, and all kinds of seeds, and these things, no matter how much you say, you don't think that the daughter of a big family should be exposed to.
"Che, you will learn these things quickly with your heart." Su Liu smiled and said, naturally they didn't know about modern people.
"I really don't know how you learned these things. If you like them, just plant them." Dongfang Mingche smiled softly and rubbed Su Liu's hair.
"Che, believe me. When winter comes, these inconspicuous seedlings will surprise you." Su Liu said confidently. This whole area of Nanshan was full of sweet potatoes, and the yield was absolutely amazing.
"Of course I believe you." Dongfang Mingche smiled, touched Su Liu's hair, and walked down the mountain with Su Liu.
At this time, the sweet potato seeds that were planted on the mountains were widely used, but the sweet potato seeds that had planted several acres of land were ignored.
At this time, two people came to the field secretly and watched the green sweet potatoes pulling hands on their left and grabbing hands on their right.
"Your strength, do you think this thing can grow good food?" Zhang simply sat in the sweet potato field. When her fat body sat on it, all the fragile sweet potato leaves were broken.
"How can I know? Since she said that, let's plant a little too." Zhang Youli thought for a while and then patted Zhang's shoulder and said, "You damn woman, go there quickly, and you can't come and help."
"If you have something to say, why should I hit me?" Zhang stood up reluctantly, then picked up the sickle in his backpack, and like Zhang Youli, he cut off the leaves of the sweet potatoes one by one.
"Youli, do you think we will do it too obvious? What if Anran knows and reports to the official?" Zhang asked in fear as he saw the sudden bareness.
"What are you afraid of? Didn't that woman say that she can pick seedlings if she wants to plant it. We just picked a little bit. Why are you so nervous? If you don't say it, I won't say it, who can know." Zhang Youli spitted on Zhang and said, shrinking his head. How did he be blind at the beginning? How could he look down on such a woman? Bah!
"I'm just talking." Zhang curled his lips in dissatisfaction, looking at the bare area, always feeling strange. She was wondering, even though she saw that they had carried so many things up the mountain, why did they seem to have never picked them before?
"Youli, look at this kind of seed, it's still good." Zhang accidentally cut open a sweet potato seed, and it was still good inside, and she couldn't help but say surprise.
"What, let's take a look, let's see what this strange thing looks like." When Zhang Youli heard this, he put down his sickle and walked to Zhang. He squatted down and looked at it. He couldn't help but be surprised. It looked dark outside, but it was white inside.
"Youli, how do you think this thing is eaten? It looks delicious. I wonder if it tastes the same as potatoes." Zhang Shi was greedy, so she cut off a piece and ate it without waiting for Zhang Youli to answer. She had no choice but to eat it. She had such a temperament once or twice.
