The two men put the defective products into a basket, and then Shen Dong carried the defective products out and poured them next to the faucet in the yard.

One load after another, soon it piled up into a small hill.

Grandma Shen finished her work and came over with a loofah to wash the sweet potatoes. There was a lot of mud on the surface of the sweet potatoes, and the mud had to be washed clean, otherwise the powder would be sandy and affect the taste.

After a while, Grandpa Shen came over with a small stool and a loofah in his hand. He sat down and started to wash.

Place the washed sweet potatoes on plastic wrap and rinse them with water after a while.

The washed sweet potatoes revealed their white skin, which was mottled and looked tender. They were piled there one after another, looking like a good harvest.

Zhang Xiaomei's grandmother passed by and saw them washing sweet potatoes. She walked in and asked, "Are you going to wash the noodles?"

Grandma Shen smiled and replied, "Yes, I have dug up the sweet potatoes and am going to wash them and make them into flour for eating."

Grandma Zhang thought for a while and asked, "When are you going to make the flour? I'll go back and wash the sweet potatoes. I'll help you wash the flour later. When you're done, can you help me wash it?"

It is like this in rural areas, everyone works for each other, you help me, I help you - this is called project exchange.

Grandma Shen nodded and said, "Okay, go wash them. The sweet potatoes here should not be harvested until the afternoon."

Grandma Zhang said excitedly: "Okay, I'll go back and wash it now."

Later, two more villagers saw them washing sweet potatoes and offered to change projects. Both Grandma Shen and Grandpa Shen agreed. Although the family had become richer, they did not act arrogantly. They still got along well with the villagers as before.

However, everyone in the village has made a lot of money thanks to Shen Xue Ning, so even if the Shen family is a little arrogant, no one will say anything.

More than a thousand kilograms of sweet potatoes were quickly picked out. After that, Shen Xuening and Shen Dong stopped picking and went to the field together to wash the sweet potatoes.

Shen Xue Ning also used the sponge gourd to wash the sweet potatoes: "This sponge gourd is very useful."

Grandma Shen said, "That's what our ancestors passed down. Everyone in the village uses it to wash dishes. It's durable and washes dishes cleanly."

Shen Xue Ning nodded: "I agree, it is really good for washing dishes, and the key is that it does not hurt your hands."

They were washing sweet potatoes here, and Shen Baohong was filming beside them: "Xue Ning, I suddenly have an idea, do you want to listen to it?"

Shen Xuening glanced at Shen Baohong from the side and said, "You say."

Shen Baohong said: "Let's buy a drone. I want to take a bigger picture."

Before Shen Xue Ning could speak, Grandma Shen started talking: "What drone? Don't encourage Ning Ning to buy those expensive and useless things. Just do your own thing well."

Grandpa Shen chimed in: "Yeah, I asked you to take pictures, so just take good care of it. Why are you using a drone? Are you trying to be lazy?"

Shen Baohong felt wronged: "I really just used it to shoot, to make the angle bigger so that the video would look better, that's all."

Shen Xue Ning thought about it seriously and said, "You are right. We should also improve the quality of our filming."

She wiped her hands, took out her cell phone, and sent a message to Qin Zizhou, asking him to buy her a drone for filming.

Qin Zizhou replied a few minutes later and said he would send it to her in a few days.

Shen Xue Ning said to Shen Baohong: "It's done. It will arrive in a few days."

Shen Baohong looked forward to it and gave Shen Xuening a thumbs up: "Great."

Shen Xue Ning asked: "Do you know how to use a drone? Do you need a tutorial?"

Shen Baohong said: "I have never touched a drone, so I don't think I can do it. Please ask me for a tutorial. You can send it to me when the drone is delivered, and I can practice at the same time."

Shen Xuening nodded: "Okay."

After hearing this, Grandma Shen and Grandpa Shen no longer opposed buying a drone. Shen Xue Ning usually made the decisions at home, and everyone followed and obeyed.

Focus on washing the sweet potatoes.

The sweet potatoes were almost washed, so Grandpa Shen and Shen Dong went to bring over a machine that was specifically used to mash sweet potatoes.

After lifting the machine, he placed it next to the sweet potatoes, and then brought over the grain buckets. He brought five grain buckets over. He had three at home and borrowed two from his neighbors. That was enough.

Place the grain barrel at the discharge port of the machine, cover it with a thick layer of plastic film, and then you can thresh the sweet potatoes.

Add sweet potatoes and water at the same time.

The water is guided in through a pipe and hung directly on the inlet. All you have to do is put the sweet potatoes into the inlet.

The machine rumbled, and white slurry flowed out from the front discharge port and gathered into the grain barrel, while sweet potato fiber was spit out from the side discharge port.

Sweet potato fiber can be used to feed livestock, but without the flour, the nutritional value is much lower, so it is basically used as fertilizer.

Now that the sweet potato fiber is dry, it is natural to use it as fertilizer, so just throw it aside without worrying about whether it is dirty or not.

The sound of the machine could be heard from far away, and soon attracted a group of old men and women in the village to watch.

"My family is also preparing to wash the noodles. If I had known they were going to wash them today, I would have gone and washed the sweet potatoes as well."

"I'm not washing the noodles this year, and I haven't finished eating the noodles I washed last year."

"I want to wash them this year, but I still have some sweet potatoes that I haven't dug up yet. I went to dig all day yesterday, but my waist ached, so I didn't go today. I'll go tomorrow."

"..."

Suddenly, an old lady asked Shen Xuening: "Ningning, do you want to harvest sweet potatoes?"

Shen Xue Ning responded: "Yes, do you have extra sweet potatoes?"

The old lady said, "Yes, it can probably be sold for a thousand kilograms."

Shen Xue Ning said: "Sure, if you want to sell it, I can ask cousin Liu to come to your house to weigh it."

The old lady asked again: "How much is one pound?"

Shen Xue Ning thought for a moment and said, "If it's sold outside for two dollars, I won't lose you anything, so I'll give it to you for two dollars."

The old lady said happily: "Okay, then you can have someone come to my house to weigh it."

Shen Xue Ning said: "I will accept any grain. You can sell me any extra grain you have. The price is the market price. It's okay if it's a little more expensive. The grain in our village is better."

The old lady happily responded, "Okay, okay, we got it."

Shen Xue Ning took the time to say hello to Liu Yujie and asked him to get ready and collect all the food from everyone in the village.

The grain in the village has been more or less stained with the spiritual spring water. Some of the seeds were originally bought from her. They are much better than those outside, so naturally they have to be kept.

Liu Yujie collected them whenever he had time. He collected everything he could. He is a reliable person.

……

They worked until dark when they finally finished harvesting all the sweet potatoes for Shen Xue Ning's family. Everyone was tired, so they quickly packed up and went to the cafeteria to eat.

Grandma prepared a sumptuous dinner for them, but no one had time to appreciate it and they devoured the food in no time.
