Chapter 372

It was hot day by day, and soon it was June.

The village head's children are playing with water in the stream, and the sound of laughter is constantly ringing through the peach blossom village.

Song Xintong sat in the shade of the Sun Valley, looking at a piece of red pepper, this year is a harvest year, the ground of pepper, the air slightly floating spicy, make her heart can't help singing a ditty, no way, happy!

Today is the day to harvest pepper. The 30 mu dry land next to the village has been harvested for less than half of the year. The yield is about the same as last year. Each mu can have 1500 Jin. It's very big and long. It's very spicy!

"Xintong, we can also harvest the peppers in the field. When will we pick them and send them over?" Asked the villagers.

Song Xintong took a look at his pepper. It was just sun dried, and the water was still enough. It would take at least four or five days to make room for this drying field. After thinking about it, he said, "everyone come here. The villagers who planted pepper come here. I'll tell you about this rule."

Aunt Xie, who was helping to sun the pepper, stood up and said, "Xintong, you say."

"I now offer two ways. One is that you pick fresh peppers and give them five Wen a Jin. The other is that you dry them and give them 20 Wen a Jin. But the dried ones must be complete and one by one." Song Xintong now has no spare space to sun pepper, so he came up with this method, "you can sun on the ground, you can take string together to sun, whatever."

"So much?" Some people take a breath. They think it's good to pay one Jin for one Wen. Unexpectedly, 20 Wen for one jin of dry pepper is more expensive than pork.

This year, those who have planted chili peppers will earn money. Some people who have not planted chili peppers may not die. When they see other faces laughing, they can only sneak away.

Song Xintong looked at the people who left. Only 40 or 50 families planted hot peppers this year. The rest of them couldn't grow hot peppers because the land was full of sweet potatoes. Some people were afraid that they would not be planted.

Now regret it, but regret is useless!

Song Xintong continued with a smile: "now it's expensive because it's only planted in our place. If someone else gets the seed in the future, our pepper won't sell at a high price, and I won't pay a high price for your pepper."

"We understand that planting sweet potato to make vermicelli is the same. When no one makes it, it's expensive. Many people make it cheaper."

"Yes." Song Xintong continued: "so we can't sell pepper to others. If others know about it, we will have no money to make."

"Xintong, you're right. We're not that stupid."

"Besides, we signed an agreement with you. I don't want to lose money."

This year, many people have planted four or five acres of chili peppers. Each family earns at least ten taels of silver. They sell them to Xintong to earn money. If they sell them to others, they have to distribute them to Xintong. That's not cost-effective.

"Then we'll dry it and send it over."

"That's it. We dried it and sent it. It's more expensive to dry it in the sun. "

Generally, five or six catties of fresh peppers, one catty of dry peppers and one catty of five Wen fresh peppers are worth 30 Wen coppers. In fact, they are still fresh and cost-effective. However, when these people listen to 20 Wen and one catty of dry peppers, they think 20 Wen is more.

"Well, you can choose any method, but I'll send the fresh peppers when I get rid of the barn." Song Xintong said.

"Good." Everyone quickly dispersed, aunt Xie, they just said: "Xintong, which is more cost-effective?"

Song Xintong smiles, "Auntie, please send me some fresh ones."

The sweet potatoes on the other side of the workshop were almost shut down, and they didn't go to other villages to buy any more. Almost all the sweet potatoes in several counties near Qingjiang county were scraped away by several workshops, and they were too far away to be transported.

Aunt Xie would smile, "these people thought they made a bargain."

Qiupozi said: "Xintong, why do you spend so much money? You won't lose, will you? "

"No, I still earn that price." Song Xintong said with a smile.

Twenty Wen a jin of dry pepper, she sold one or two silver a jin of dry pepper, capital is not much, cost-effective!

When the 30 mu pepper harvest is finished, the drying field and workshop are all covered with the sun. They keep turning and drying on the fifth or sixth day.

After it's dried in the sun, the hot peppers planted on 50 or 60 mu of dry land in the suburbs should be harvested one after another. In addition, the hot peppers planted on 40 or 50 mu of land in the village will probably sell tens of thousands of Jin of hot peppers this year. Ha ha ha, it's going to make a lot of money!

Of course, this side of the sun pepper, the other side of the home is also busy, keep chopping pepper here, do chili sauce, invited a lot of good hands, keep chopping pepper! Last year, we made 5000 Jin, sold some and gave some away. The rest of the restaurants consumed almost all of them.

This year, she has a plan to open another restaurant, so she needs to prepare more dry peppers and chili sauce. The chili sauce with secret seasoning is much better than the one without.

Other people in the village started to make chili sauce with chili peppers this year, instead of picking Dogwood Fruit on the mountain.

By the middle of June, the hot peppers in the drying barn were dried. Song Xintong called the people who made vermicelli in the workshop to cut the hot peppers and get the hot pepper seeds. Because the work was stopped earlier this year, song Xintong left them to work for a month. The salary was the same as that in the workshop. Thirty Wen a day, he also signed a confidentiality agreement.

In addition to the hot peppers used to make chili sauce, the 30 mu hot peppers once again produced 7000 Jin dry hot peppers and piled up a full empty room.

Everyone sat on the threshold and began to cut the pepper. After taking the seeds, the pepper was put into the coarse cloth bag which had been made for a long time. A large cloth bag can hold nearly 500 Jin, and it can stand as high as one person.

"Madam, there are villagers looking for you outside." Zhou ran in to report.

At the end of May, the Zhou family came back from the county town. Because the poplar trees were too busy, and they were going to Lingnan city in August, they were worried that Lu's mother would be at home alone, so they went to buy a room for them to come back.

Zhou and Zhuang GUI are both in their thirties. They also have two sons, Zhuang and Zhuang Ming, who are 16 and 5 years old. Zhuang Ming is several years younger than the two boys of the Yang family.

One family is the son of a big family in Jiangnan. Because of Zhou's negligence, he knocked down his mother's ginseng soup and was sold to Lingnan. By chance, he was bought by Lu Yunkai.

I've been here for half a month, and I'm very diligent and honest. I haven't seen the problem for the time being, but I have to observe. If I can't, I have to send them away.

The family is busy these days. Zhuang GUI and his sons are running outside with the poplar. Zhou's family is at home to help take care of the family. Just now, they sent something to her. I guess they met someone when they went out.

"I'll see." Song Xintong went out and saw Zhang Cuihua standing at the door, looking at her with a smile.
