Reborn Brother Farming Story

"What are these?" A man frowned at the pungent smell as soon as he opened the jar, and retreated subconsciously.

"It's something that doesn't exist outside." Liu Yaoqing said with a smile, "according to the ratio little by little, don't be too fast, and must be mixed evenly."

Cans of things were slowly added in, corn was ground into powder, bones were rubbed into finer powder, the men mixed it over and over again, and gradually the unpleasant smell disappeared, replaced by the smell of grain, and a kind of ...a taste that is more fragrant than food.

The finished product smelled so good that everyone felt that if they didn't know how it was made, they should be able to eat it.

"Tong Xi, please keep an eye on it for me." Liu Yaoqing asked by name, "Have you learned how to keep accounts?"

In the palace, Tong Xi was an eunuch who was in charge of records of entering and leaving the palace. He was of high rank, literate but not good at accounting, but had never done manual work.Seeing that he was working so hard, Liu Yaoqing obviously wanted to seize this opportunity to be reborn, and didn't dislike those things that smelled bad or would get his hands and feet dirty, so Liu Yaoqing intended to promote him.

"I learned it." Tong Xi said.

"Then let's keep the accounts by the way." Liu Yaoqing looked around, ordered another man, and did not let Tong Xi come alone.

Coming out of the feed workshop, Liu Yaoqing stretched her waist, twisted from side to side, and punched Brother Zhezi on the back, saying: "I have to be more dignified in front of those people, but I feel a little uncomfortable."

So come out and relax.

"Brother Qing, the chicks should arrive today." Brother Zhezi remained calm no matter whether he was in the workshop or outside, as if he was doing everything calmly.

"Well, let's go and have a look, and talk to Su Qi by the way." Liu Yaoqing said.

He is in charge of the feed workshop at this time, and he has to go over and watch it every day.A lot of feed has been accumulated in the warehouse, and the shed has been built, just waiting for the chicks and pigs.

The pergola was bigger than before, and when Liu Yaoqing came, he met men carrying potatoes to the warehouse.

There are also a few men waiting on Su Qi's side, among them is Song Shuixiang, everyone stood behind Su Qi, looking quite imposing.

"How's the situation these few days?" Liu Yaoqing asked.

"Not many people know about it now, only seven or eight people came to deliver the corn." Su Qi said, "And the corn is no better than potatoes, this stuff is durable, I am afraid that many people will send it slowly..."

If the corn is dried in the sun, put it in a good place, and it will be fine for a year or two.

Many people are frightened by hunger. The potatoes are not easy to store and can be recited for money, but the corn is not willing to part with it. They would rather put it in the granary. Every time they look at it, they will have confidence.

"Don't worry, this year's corn will come down in a few days, let's lower the price of last year's corn." Liu Yaoqing said, "Don't worry about not getting it, there is enough corn in the warehouse now, so you don't have to worry too much."

"En." Su Qi nodded.

Potatoes don't need money, they are exchanged for things, but corn is still collected with big money for the time being, and the price is not very high, which is why the surrounding farmers are not very active.

Just as he was talking, a simple man came in pushing a wooden cart with two big sacks of corn on it.

"Selling corn?" Liu Yaoqing asked.

"Yes, my wife is sick and needs money," said the man.

"Well, open the bag and let me have a look." Liu Yaoqing said calmly.

The bag was opened, and the top ones were all corns with distinct grains, golden yellow like jade. Liu Yaoqing grabbed them and looked at them, but didn't say anything.

Brother Zhezi came over with a grooved iron bar, gently poked through the bag, and then pulled it out. There were a lot of corn inside.

"It's too thin." Liu Yaoqing said, "If you want to sell it, I can also ask for it, but the price will definitely not be high."

The man's face turned blue and white, and finally he gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Well, come here." Liu Yaoqing waved his hand.

Immediately, three or five men came out. Song Shuixiang spread a piece of thick cloth on the ground, and the men held the bag and poured out all the corn in it.

Only then did everyone discover that only the top corn was good, and almost half of the bottom was shriveled, and the rest was not plump, pale in color, and not a beautiful golden yellow.

"Last year, the ground was flooded, and the corn didn't grow well. These shriveled ones can be eaten." The man said honestly.

Liu Yaoqing was unmoved, "Even if you can eat it, you have to separate the good corn from the shriveled ones, the same quality and the same price, if you want to pretend to be fake, if you meet the owner of a grain store outside, not only will you be beaten, maybe you will be beaten later. I don't want your food."

But even if the corn is good, the granaries of every household are full now, and the grain merchants may not be short of it. If they want to sell it, the price will not be raised at all.

Corn is similar to potatoes except that it is resistant to storage. Everyone does not lack this, so the price will naturally not go up.

"[-]% dry corn, the price is halved. The plump corn is of average quality, so you can get [-]% silver, how about it?" Su Qi came over with the ledger, wrote a few strokes on it, and looked up.

The man was taken aback, and said, "I don't understand."

"Well, let me calculate the total." Su Qi quickly said, "These two bags of corn are worth a total of one hundred and three dollars, what do you think?"

"This..." I didn't expect much from the man. He looked down at the corn that had been separated by others. The shriveled pile of corn was not pleasing to the eye, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Success!"

"Don't feel that you are at a disadvantage." Liu Yaoqing said, "You can take the corn now and go to the grain store to ask the price. I have prepared a lot of money for you here, and you can come back to sell it at any time."

"No, no." The man hurriedly said.

He knows well that his own corn is not of good quality, so he will definitely not be able to sell it at a price. The reason why he came to Dan County is because he has always heard that Liu Yaoqing is kind, and even if he finds out that he hides the shriveled corn underneath, he will not let him go. How about it.

But he didn't know, since Liu Yaoqing wanted to collect corn, could they be fooled?

Soon another man came, this time Song Shuixiang poked through the bags below with a grooved iron bar, and found another bag with shriveled corn hidden in it, and another bag with sand hidden underneath.

"This kind of refusal." Liu Yaoqing said, "If it happens again next time, ask the gatekeeper to remember their appearance, and you will never be able to come to Dan County again."

Potatoes are big, and they have to be taken out every time to check one by one, so that they cannot be adulterated. The corn is packed in bags and is very heavy, so these people have lost their minds.

"The rules are set. When someone comes again, tell them about it." Liu Yaoqing frowned, "Everyone keep your eyes open and observe the corn carefully. This thing is small, and if you receive a moldy one, something may happen."

"I know." Su Qi became serious.

Not long after, Zhou Zhuang ran over and said that someone from Shanggu Village had come from outside.

"It's chicklings, tell them to come in." Liu Yaoqing said.

This year, chickens were raised in several greenhouses on the mountain, because Liu Yaoqing had a plan early on, Li's family saved a lot of eggs, and when they saw a hen that was about to hatch, they caught them and put them in a single greenhouse to breed, and gave it [-] to [-] eggs to hatch.

The hens will turn the eggs with their paws when they are hatching, and they hardly come out to eat, and their feathers have become very fluffy. With the hay underneath, it is easy to hatch thirty or forty eggs.

In the special greenhouse, the hens are hatching eggs one by one, and when the chicks break their shells, the whole greenhouse is filled with round, fast-running hairballs.

It is not easy to distinguish male and female chickens, but their mouths are slightly red. When the chickens grow up, their feathers are basically reddish.

Basically, this kind of chicken is picked out by the Li family and left on the mountain. Chickens with reddish feathers have a good meaning, and the more chickens you raise, the better.

"Everyone rest first, go to the dining hall to eat." Liu Yaoqing called the people who delivered the chickens to the big dining hall. They were all capable hands selected from the mountains by the Li family. all good.

"Brother Qing has lost weight." A man laughed.

Liu Yaoqing hurriedly put on a straight face and said, "Don't let my mother know, or you will have to blame me again."

"That's, that's, haha." The man knew that Liu Yaoqing was joking, so he couldn't help laughing.

Every corner of the greenhouse was sprinkled with white water, filled with an unpleasant smell.

Although the men don't know much about it, it is said that this is the case in Shanggu Village. The chickens raised do not get sick, grow fast, and have delicious meat.

"Sprinkle the chicklings down first, and pick the males and females after a while." Liu Yaoqing said.

Chicken feed is placed in the chicken trough, and chopped green vegetables are added to it, and there is also a special chicken trough for drinking water.The little chicks were caught and put on the ground, and then they rushed towards the feed, devoting themselves to eating.

There is also a special nest in the shed, which is set up with a wooden frame, some distance from the ground, and the chickens sleep on it at night, very obedient.

Liu Yaoqing felt relieved when she came to see it a few times, and urged the feed workshop to make more feed.

The men from Shanggu Village had a meal, talked to Liu Yaoqing about the things there, went to the house to rest for a night, and left the next day, there was still a lot of work on the mountain.

"There are so many things going on these days, I almost forgot." Liu Yaoqing shook her head lightly.

In the past, he had to fight against Old Man Liu and Liu Quanfu in order to survive, but later he thought about splitting up the family. Now, Liu Yaoqing is so busy with things that he hardly thinks about the things there.

Since Liu Yaoqing left, Liu Quanfu didn't care about the work in the field.

Fortunately, the crops have been planted, and there will be some harvest no matter what.Furthermore, Mrs. Li couldn't manage even if she wanted to, she was the daughter-in-law of the Liu family, and now she was relying on Liu Yaoqing to become the steward of the mountain, so it was difficult to intervene in many things.

Although Liu Yaoqing is a junior, he is different from the Li family. He can represent the entire Sanfang, and he can even deal with old man Liu, but he didn't make a move.

Xiaobao worked for a few days, and when Liu Yaoqing left, he lay on the kang for several days and did not come down for several days, and Li Shi personally fed the food into his mouth.

Once Xiaobao held back his urine, but was too lazy to get off the kang, and kept sleeping and sleeping, and ended up urinating on the kang.Mrs. Liu changed the quilt and sheets, and Mrs. Li took them to the yard to wash them. It happened that someone who came to see them saw it, so they couldn't hide it.

It is said that Xiaobao has become a relative, and the child is about to be born, but he is still peeing on the kang, it is really unreasonable.

Old man Liu felt that Xiaobao was tired from working in the fields, and his heart ached, so he changed the way with Mrs. Li to get food for Xiaobao, and told him to regain all the fat that had lost weight, making him even fatter than before.
