Chapter 486

In fact, it is not a few households, but a dozen.

This year's summer and autumn harvests are good. In addition, there are winter wheat at the bottom in spring. Bai Shanbao also exchanged a batch of wheat with them with a kilogram of 22 Liang, so the vast majority of the villagers in Qili Village are not short of food.

So few families decided to plant winter wheat.

Are you tired after all?

All year round, we will be a little lighter after the autumn harvest, and then plant winter wheat, which is equivalent to the end of the year.

That doesn't bode well.

But the old Zhou family decided to plant winter wheat. As soon as his family connected in series in the village, several families agreed, and others hesitated, they followed more than a dozen.

That's what farming is like.

The reason why the old Zhou family decided to plant winter wheat was that manbao's small farm wanted to plant winter wheat; Second, Lao Zhoutou still misses the income of new wheat seeds; Third, there are cows at home. If you don't plant them, it feels like a waste.

However, they do not intend to plant more than 20 mu this year.

Other people don't have such a big hand as the old Zhou family.

It's almost enough to plant two or three mu, mainly because they don't have to eat winter wheat.

Yes, it's so easy to be satisfied.

When man Bao and his classmates left school, Mr. Zhuang was invited to join them.

Master Bai likes the children to make friends with county magistrate Yang, so Bai Shanbao and man Bao are left by him to accompany county magistrate Yang for dinner.

Yang Heshu also likes talking to his three children.

Talking to them doesn't have to be as troublesome as coaxing children, nor does it have to be as troublesome as facing crafty adults, let alone worry that they will not understand what he said and have a sense of powerlessness.

So the four soon became a group alone. They walked and enjoyed the flowers in the garden and talked. Instead, they left master Bai and Mr. Zhuang in the pavilion to play chess.

Man Bao took a fancy to a chrysanthemum and ran up to enjoy it.

Bai Erlang waved very generously, "here you are."

As soon as the voice fell, Bai Shanbao pinched the flowers and put them on man Bao's head, and then couldn't help laughing.

Yang Heshu looked at the chrysanthemum with a big face, and couldn't help laughing.

Man Bao felt very beautiful. He had to run to the lotus pond of Bai Erlang's house and look at it. Bai Shanbao grabbed her and said, "it's very good-looking, very good-looking. Don't go as soon as we come from there."

Yang Heshu laughed with tears. He wiped the corners of his eyes and nodded: "yes, it's very nice."

Man Bao took the flowers down and said, "since they are so beautiful, they should be given to Yang da. Yes, you are our parents."

As soon as Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang heard this, they felt justified. They grabbed Yang Heshu one after another. The three children put the flowers on his head with one heart.

Now, man Bao laughed with Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang.

Yang Heshu took the flowers off his head when they had laughed enough. He asked with a smile, "didn't you agree to go to my house when you were free to go to the city? Why haven't you been going? "

Man Bao said, "I only went to the county once before the Mid Autumn Festival, but I went with my family. There are many people, so it's hard to disturb adults."

Bai Shanbao also said, "we went to Yizhou during the Mid Autumn Festival."

"Oh?" Yang Heshu saw that they were more and more like little adults, and their tone was more like that of their peers. "Is Yizhou fun?"

Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang nodded fiercely, "their streets are very big and many. We haven't finished shopping for two days."

Man Bao said, "so big?"

The two nodded together.

Man Bao said, "there must be a lot of delicious food."

"Of course," said Bai Shanbao, "do you want to go?"

Yang Heshu asked with a smile, "can Yizhou be lively?"

Bai Shanbao thought for a moment and said, "it's lively, but people are strange."

"Oh, how strange?"

Bai Shanbao said, "there are many beggars in Yizhou, not only in the city, but also along the official roads and outside the city gate. Before we entered the city, they came forward with a bowl to beg. It's so pathetic."

Bai Erlang nodded again and again. "There are not so many beggars in Luojiang county. They are rare in the city. There are only one or two between villages and towns. Occasionally, they pass by and take out a bowl of porridge."

Bai Erlang said this because his family's house in Qili Village is the most imposing. Beggars passing by will shake outside his house first. Every time, his grandmother will ask someone to give the beggar a bowl of rice and then two bowls of rice to send away.

Bai Erlang has seen it several times since he was a child.

But only a few times.

So he was as surprised as Bai Shanbao at the beggars everywhere in Yizhou.

Yang He, with a faint sigh on his back, asked, "they all begged because of last year's natural disaster?"

"I asked, most of them are, and some are from other places in Yizhou," Bai Shanbao sighed. "The price of Yizhou is too high. One family's wonton is said to be very delicious. It costs 20 Wen a bowl. In Luojiang County, it only costs seven Wen."

Man Bao immediately popularized science. "Before, it was only five words."

Yang Heshu thought, "the food price there must be very high?"

Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang nodded together.

Yang Heshu read the music, "did you deliberately ask the price of grain?"

"Of course," Bai Shanbao said naturally, "there is a grain shop not far from the other courtyard where we live. We went in and had a look."

Bai Shanbao said to man Bao, "Uncle Tang has made us a lot of money. You must not know what price our new wheat seeds have sold in Yizhou."

"What's the price?"

Bai Shanbao said, "sky high price! The grain shops didn't sell, but the man said, "if we want to buy that new wheat seed, we have to pay at least 300 Wen."

Man Bao was stunned, "a bucket?"

Bai Shanbao nodded affirmatively, "a bucket."

The three little friends didn't have time to talk about these things, because he and Bai Er had a crazy trip. Mr. didn't finish his homework. As soon as he took the leave, Mr. Bai punished three times his homework.

Every day Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang can only stay in the study and bury themselves in their homework. Man Bao can run home to play with his nephews and nieces after finishing his homework, and doesn't take care of them at all.

Yang Heshu widened his eyes and asked, "what kind of wheat should cost 300 Wen a bucket?"

His first thought was that someone maliciously raised wheat seeds. At this critical moment of post disaster reconstruction, this behavior is extremely bad.

The three children were very proud, "it's our wheat seed."

Yang Heshu's eyes narrowed slightly and asked, "is there anything strange about your wheat?"

"Of course," the three, including Bai Erlang, listed the advantages of their new wheat varieties in order to sell them to master Bai.

Although it's been a long time now, Bai Erlang can still remember, so I'll say a word to you and me with my two little friends

"We grow wheat with long ears!"

"Our wheat plants are tall and strong."

"Drought and waterlogging resistance."

"The main reason is that the output is still high."

Yang Heshu asked with a smile, "how much did you sell it?"

"It's 150 Wen a bucket to sell to their own people and 180 Wen a bucket to outsiders, but now the price of grain has dropped, and so has the price of grain seeds."
