Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business
Chapter 31 Digging Bamboo Shoots
"Brother, you take the lead. Let's bring more backpacks to dig. I don't know how much it will cost to dig this bamboo forest. I'll ask grandpa in the evening." The more Jiang Xue thought about it, the more she felt that she had to do it quickly.
When Jiang Feng heard that Jiang Xue wanted to buy a bamboo forest, he was stunned. He couldn't understand why Jiang Xue wanted to buy a bamboo forest. He couldn't use it to farm, and it didn't bring any benefits. Everyone could use bamboo for free, so why would he spend money to buy it?
Half a quarter of an hour later, Jiang Feng and his friends arrived at the bamboo forest.
There was a large bamboo forest in Jiang Xue's hometown in her previous life. Every winter, her grandfather would take her to dig bamboo shoots, so she was very experienced and knew how to dig them.
Nowadays, winter bamboo shoots are tender and everyone likes them, and the price is also good.
When she was a child, she lived with her grandfather, and most of the family's income came from digging winter bamboo shoots.
Although digging winter bamboo shoots will affect bamboo reproduction, reasonable digging can ensure the normal growth of bamboo and make more money.
Jiang Xue was seen walking around in the bamboo forest. Jiang Feng didn't know what she was doing. Just as he was about to ask, Jiang Xue spoke up: "Look, the color of the bamboo leaves can tell whether there is something underneath.
Generally, when we dig winter bamboo shoots, we first observe the color of the bamboo leaves and judge whether there are bamboo shoots underneath based on the color.
Sure enough, if the bamboo leaves are green, there is a high chance that there are bamboo shoots underneath, and you can use a hoe to gently dig around. If the bamboo leaves are not green, but yellow, there are basically no bamboo shoots underneath. "Jiang Xue began to explain the skills of digging winter bamboo shoots to the two people in front of her.
Jiang Xue thought for a moment and continued, "Remember to follow the bamboo paths to find bamboo shoots. Winter bamboo shoots usually grow along the bamboo paths.
You can see shoots on more mature bamboos, and tenderer ones will have a small cracked mound. If you follow the path of the bamboos, you may find several if you are lucky. "
Jiang Xue demonstrated as she spoke, and based on her experience she had dug up a large nest of winter bamboo shoots, with more than a dozen tender bamboo shoots arranged crosswise.
"Brother, look at the direction of the bamboo shoots. Wherever the bamboo head is facing, there will be shoots. You can also look at which side has denser leaves and dig in that direction."
Jiang Xue continued. She looked at the elder brother in front of her and tried to explain in as much detail as possible, thinking that after buying the bamboo forest, she would ask Jiang Feng to organize people to dig. She had too many things to do and it was impossible for her to do it all by herself.
She handed the hoe to Jiang Feng beside her and said, "Brother, you try it." Jiang Feng followed Jiang Xue's method and successfully dug a nest. He jumped for joy.
Seeing that the other party had mastered the technique, Jiang Xue encouraged her brother to try more. "Xue'er, I want to try it too." Jiang Chen couldn't help but say.
Along the way, Jiang Xue didn't pay much attention to him and didn't talk to him. Jiang Chen felt very lost.
Seeing that Jiang Chen wanted to try to dig winter bamboo shoots, Jiang Xue picked up the hoe on the ground and handed it to him. "Did you understand what I just said?" Jiang Feng nodded and started looking.
Perhaps because no one had ever dug here before, the two backpacks they brought were full in just half an hour.
Jiang Xue waved her hand and shouted, "It's almost noon, everyone go home! Come back later."
Hearing the voice, Jiang Feng and Jiang Chen stopped what they were doing, looked up, picked up their hoes, walked towards Jiang Xue, and took the initiative to carry a backpack each.
"My little ancestor, is this the ingredient you are looking for? How do you eat it?" Jiang Chen just walked into the yard with a pot of vegetables, and saw Jiang Feng carrying something unknown on his back.
Jiang Xue saw that Jiang Chen was not as shocked this time as she was the previous two times. She guessed that after a few more times, the family would get used to it and become numb.
"Grandma, these are winter bamboo shoots. They can be stir-fried, made into dried bamboo shoots, or used as an ingredient for oden," Jiang Xue introduced.
Although Jiang Chen was used to the surprises brought by Jiang Xue, she was still very happy to hear that there was one more kind of food. She was even more excited when she heard Jiang Xue say that this was food for business. "Are there any more? Do you want to dig some more? Is this enough?" Jiang Chen asked.
Jiang Xue shook her head and said, "Grandma, don't worry. When grandpa comes back later, we will buy the place where the winter bamboo shoots grow." "Buy it? That will cost a lot of money! Otherwise, we can dig them all up and don't have to buy it." Jiang Chen was worried that Jiang Xue had no money.
As soon as Mr. Jiang entered the room, he heard where they were going to buy something, and asked with a smile, "What do you want to buy, Sanniu? I heard it from a distance."
Seeing that her grandfather had asked about this, Jiang Xue wanted to quickly settle the matter, preferably by tomorrow, so she looked at Grandpa Jiang seriously and said, "Grandpa, I want to buy the bamboo forest next to our backyard."
Old Master Jiang frowned and said, "Why buy that land? If you want to use bamboo, just use it. No one will say anything."
Jiang Xue hesitated for a moment, but decided to speak out her idea: "I plan to open an oden snack shop at the dock, and I need a lot of winter bamboo shoots. I'm afraid that others will want them. I'm afraid that if the business gets good and everyone likes winter bamboo shoots, we won't be able to dig them up."
Old Master Jiang understood, nodded and said, "That bamboo forest is 500 mu, and the government set the price at 600 wen per mu, which is the same as the barren mountain, so it can be taken for about 300 taels."
"Okay, then Grandpa, come with us into the city tomorrow and draw up the deed, and I'll give you the money." Jiang Xue said and prepared to take out the money.
Seeing Jiang Xue's persistence, Old Master Jiang knew that he could not persuade her. This child had her own ideas, so he said nothing more. He took the three hundred taels of silver from Jiang Xue, thought for a moment and said, "Sanniu, give it to me when you go to the government office tomorrow." Jiang Xue nodded.
Chuanzhou Fengfu
"Master, there's a letter via carrier pigeon from Yunwu Town. It's from Steward Wang." said the secret guard at the side.
There was a handsome man lying on the couch. When I got closer, I saw that he was so handsome, with fair skin, outstanding facial features, eight feet tall and thin. He was wearing a purple robe embroidered with gold patterns, a black and white fur cloak, and black leather boots.
Feng Qingyu put down the book and frowned. The secret guard quickly handed over the note.
After reading the content, Feng Qingyu was shocked and immediately said, "Hurry up and prepare the carriage and horses, and ask the Feng family granary to prepare 50 stone of rice immediately, and set off for Yunwu Town immediately." The secret guard was shocked and turned around and left the room.
The Jiang family had just finished their meal. Except for Jiang An who was supervising the digging of yam in the mountain, the others at home were digging in the backyard under the arrangement of Grandpa Jiang.
Seeing that the weather was good, Mr. Jiang wanted to plant the seedlings that Jiang Xue had brought out a few days ago. He had to go to the town to get a bamboo forest deed tomorrow. If he didn't finish it today, he didn't know when it would be delayed.
Grandpa Jiang brought Jiang Feng to the backyard. As soon as he pushed open the door of the temporary shed, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. It had only been a few days, but most of the seedlings had grown to five or six centimeters tall.
"Jiang Feng, go and ask everyone to come and get the seedlings. We have to plant all these seedlings today." After a while, trays of seedlings were brought out, and the family divided the work and cooperated. First, they loosened the soil, and then started to dig holes.
Jiang Feng and Old Man Jiang were responsible for digging the hole, Jiang Xue and Jiang Bing were responsible for planting the seedlings, Jiang Yu and Jiang Chen were responsible for fertilizing, and finally Jiang Chen and Jiang Wang were responsible for filling the hole.
With everyone working together, it took only more than an hour to plant the watermelons, cabbages, white radishes and lettuces.
At this moment, the backyard has turned into a lush scene, with countless green seedlings dancing in the breeze.
Although the vast land outside the backyard is large in area, it has never been fully cultivated and utilized since Lao Jiang's family settled here.
However, now, thanks to the help of the immortals, this once barren land has finally been filled up, presenting a vibrant scene.
Thinking that he would no longer have to endure hunger in the future, Lao Jiang couldn't help but get excited with tears in his eyes.
He knew very well that the lush vegetable garden before him not only meant food and clothing, but also represented hope for life and a better future.
