Rebirth of farming for a living

Chapter 230 How to make sweet potato seedlings

Seeing that Li Qiuyan and Jiang Zhe had already washed a lot of sweet potatoes, Cheng saw a job, so she went to help with the work, not forgetting to ask: "Should we wash more of these sweet potatoes, or do something else?"

"Wash, aunt, you wash some more and I'll cut it."

Cheng quickly took the big basin where Li Qiuyan washed sweet potatoes and started cleaning it carefully.

Li Qiuyan cut the sweet potatoes into pieces first. When Jiang Zhe and Wang Daniu came over after unloading the truck, Jiang Zhe tied the donkey to the stone mill, and the sweet potatoes could be ground.

Unfortunately, the little donkey was very stubborn. It was walking quite well before, but it refused to move even though it was tied to the mill.

Wang Daniu smiled when he saw Jiang Zhe not knowing what to do. He was still young.The reminder said: "This animal doesn't want to leave. Just find a cloth and cover its eyes."

Li Qiuyan found a piece of black cloth and tied it on the donkey's head. Not to mention, the donkey couldn't see it, so it stopped being anxious and started grinding slowly.

Seeing that the sweet potato pulp came out smoothly, Li Qiuyan felt relieved: "This is much better than being pulled by someone. My father and Jiang Zhe were very tired that day, so the money was worth it."

Mr. Cheng joked: "That's right, you can spend your money wherever you want."

Seeing that the bucket of sweet potato pulp was half full, Li Qiuyan changed the bucket and continued to collect it.

Seeing this, Mrs. Cheng became curious again. Since she wanted to ask Mrs. Cheng and Wang Daniu for help, it was impossible to hide this from them.

Li Qiuyan asked Wang Daniu and Cheng to take good care of it. Jiang Zhe fetched fresh water, added it to the bucket, kneaded the sweet potato pulp mixed with fresh water for a while, and then filtered the sweet potato residue with gauze, leaving a bucket of turbid water.

"The main thing is to use this water. We don't need the sweet potato residue. It can also be used to feed pigs and fertilize the land." Li Qiuyan watched Jiang Zhe's operation while talking to Wang Daniu and Wang Daniu.

Li Xiangnan mentioned the sweet potato dregs from Yang's before, and it was really delicious for pigs.

The two nodded frequently and wrote it down carefully.

However, Li Qiuyan has no next move. He needs time to wait for the water to settle.

The second bucket will be operated by Wang Daniu.

This is very simple, and Wang Daniu's hands are very strong. Even though it was his first time doing it, he did it quite decently.

There is a donkey pulling the mill, so busy work is not too tiring.

After making a few buckets in this way, Li Xiangnan came back from the mountain and it was almost time for dinner.

The vermicelli made by Li Qiuyan was gone in the morning, and there was no way for Wang Daniu and Cheng to try it.

Fortunately, the vegetables and meat were all ready-made at home, so Cheng and Li Qiuyan made the meal quickly.

The family had dinner, and when Wang and others came back from town, Li Qiuyan discussed the sweet potato seedlings with them.

"Many people have asked me these days. I just said that I don't know yet. I need to get a charter." Li Xiangnan said.

Especially those who didn't plant it last season, they are so anxious to pat their thighs.

Although the land has been planted with food, I heard that it can be planted for another season, and some corners of the vegetable garden can also be planted.

Someone close to them had grown the sweet potatoes, and they tasted them too. They were sweet and delicious.

Even if we don't say it's delicious, the output is shocking.

"Dad, why don't you just tell everyone about this method of growing rice seedlings? We won't help you grow rice seedlings."

Firstly, Li Qiuyan had no energy. Secondly, if he wanted to sell rice seedlings, it would not be appropriate to sell more or less.

After all, it was given for free the first time, but this time I have to collect money, so I’m afraid some people won’t be willing.

During the day, she was still thinking about whether to tell anyone about this recipe and let someone close to her do the business, but after thinking about it, there was no suitable person, and it seemed that it would not be appropriate to tell anyone.

There is no need to mention Li Xiangdong's family. Li Xiangxi is the only one left in Li Xiangxi's family, and he may be too busy. As for Li Xiangbei's family, one goes to the store and the other takes care of the children, and there is no manpower available.

The most important thing is that this thing actually has no technical content. She wants to use sweet potatoes. Although she doesn't have such big ambitions, she also hopes that sweet potatoes can be popularized.

Li Xiangnan never knew how to deal with this matter. After hearing what Li Qiuyan said, he felt that there was no other better way, so he agreed.

The next day, Li Xiangnan went out, and when someone asked again, he told everyone as agreed: "You can sow the sweet potatoes if you like. The seedlings will grow easily. Cut the sweet potatoes into pieces and bury them in the ground. Just wait until they sprout before transplanting.”

Is this method so simple?Many people doubtfully thanked Li Xiangnan and went home to experiment.

Others asked Li Xiangnan tentatively: "Will you harvest these sweet potatoes after they are planted?"

Seeing the Li family's real money, the villagers only kept a small part of it, and most of it was sold to Li Xiangnan's family.

"Take it, just bring it over." Although Li Xiangnan was frightened when he looked at the sweet potatoes piled up at home.But the vermicelli was really delicious, and Li Qiuyan said so, so he just said so.

When those families that had not grown any crops heard about this, they went to beg for sweet potatoes from their close relatives. Some exchanged items, and some tentatively asked for money. Li Qiuyan ignored all of this.
