Mermaid Farming

"What is this for?"

He Zeyang looked at the dozen or so pearls he took out and asked.

"I suddenly remembered that I still have a lot of these pearls. I don't know if I can take them to the town to exchange for money? How about we buy an acre of paddy fields when I return the silver? There are also ox carts. It would be great to buy an ox cart .” Ren Yu said enthusiastically.

He Zeyang took the pearls in his hand, "You still have these pearls in your hands, don't tell others."

"Hmm, should we buy a bullock cart or a field?"

They can buy the land in other places and then rent it out. It is also very good to eat rent.

They don't have any fields here, and even those fields they created by themselves are all because they spent a lot of effort to go to other places and pick up a lot of soil.

Then mix it with the original barren soil, and after a few years, these things are almost their own fields.

The field here is really troublesome to get it done. It will take them a long time to pick out the small stones in the soil.

It is also a very hard thing to go to the mountains to pick up soil and come back.

No way, the place here is too barren.

To be honest, this place is actually not suitable for plowing fields, but it is suitable for planting fruit trees.

Just look at the wild fruits on their mountains, there are a lot of them, and you will know.

But these fruit trees are not allowed to be planted on the side of the road.

Passers-by, looking for a few, this person picks a few, and the other picks a few, I am afraid that there will be no fruit before it is ripe.

It is very difficult in the early stage of farming, but after opening, things are much simpler.

They can't grow valuable rice, so they grow some sweet potatoes that they eat at home, which is also very good.

As for the world bought in other villages, it is inconvenient for their own family to take care of it, and their own land reclamation is almost the same.

A little more variety, and they'll let other things go.

Renting it to someone else is the best option.

He Zeyang thought for a while, "Let's buy a field first."

Why do you buy a bullock cart?

The home is not too far from the town.

It takes a short walk to get to the town, and there are not many fields at home. The brothers can finish the work in a few days.

Not only is it useless to buy an ox cart to return, but it is necessary to mow the grass to return.

Comparing the two, he thinks it is more cost-effective to buy a field.

The quality of these dozen or so pearls is very good, and the size of the pearls at home is also much larger.

In this era, there are no fake pearls, all are pure natural, and the price is not low.

These pearls, the silver he exchanged, plus some silver he took out from the public house, was almost enough silver to buy an acre of land.

And it's still a medium paddy field.

However, the fields are the foundation of these farmers.

No one is willing to sell the land unless it is absolutely necessary.

They have to find it now.

Finding a suitable field is not easy either.

Because of this matter, he specially went to ask Aunt Chen and his family.

Aunt Chen is very familiar with the surrounding areas, so she readily agreed.

Once there is news, I will definitely tell them as soon as possible.

He Zeyang went to the town several times, and then sold all the pearls in his hands.

The price is much higher than before.

The reason is that last year, when the river water dropped, more mussels were salvaged, and more pearls were obtained. During that period, the price of pearls dropped a little.

But this year, these water levels have risen, and this time it is more difficult to get pearls.

Things are rare.

Will the price go up?

The people he took out the pearls were not surprised, they had already thought of a better excuse for him.

"You are still smart. The pearls you found before are still received at this time."

He Zeyang smiled and said nothing.

Take the silver and go back.

He went back with the money, which was much higher than he imagined, and he could buy an acre of medium-sized paddy field without taking out any other money.

The price of a medium paddy field is around six taels of silver.

These thirteen pink pearls were exchanged for six and a half taels of silver.

The price of this kind of pearls with other colors is much higher than that of white pearls.

He also knew it for the first time.

After exchanging so much money, He Zeyang was excited for a while, then calmed down. He took the money to buy a catty of pork, and went home directly.

With so much silver on his body, he was worried about continuing to wander around the town.

In case someone steals it, there is no place to cry.

"I've exchanged the money back, and I'll buy it when someone buys the field." He Zeyang said with a hint of excitement in his tone.

Their family will also have paddy fields in the future.

With this paddy field, their family will not need to buy so much food in the future, and the paddy field can still be there all the time, saving a lot of money to buy food.

With only the two of them at home now, Ren Yu asked with confidence, "How much money did you get?"

"Six taels of silver." He Zeyang said happily.

Ren Yu asked in surprise, the price was completely beyond his imagination, "Why so much money?"

"There are very few pearls to be found now, and the price of this kind of pink pearls is also much higher." He Zeyang explained.

Ren Yu's eyes were shining, she looked at He Zeyang and said, "I still have a lot of pearls like this in my hand, do you want to change some more?"

He Zeyang didn't ask him where the pearl came from, and thought about his words seriously, "Wait for a while, then I'll exchange it for silver in the next town."

"Okay." Ren Yu was also very supportive of He Zeyang's decision.

It's as if he never asked about the strangeness on him.

This is a tacit understanding between the two of them.

"By the way, there are already a lot of eggs at home, do you want to sell them in the town?"

"How many?" He Zeyang asked.

"There is a basket." Ren Yu said, "Recently, the family often buys meat and eats it, and the eggs are not well-known, so there are a lot left."

These eggs can't be stored for a long time, they will go bad.

"I won't be going to town recently. I have a lot of eggs at home. Let the second and third siblings bring some back to their mother's house. I won't buy so much meat for the rest."

When He Zeyang was talking, he felt very guilty. He went to town today and bought another catty of pork.

The half-fat and half-thin one costs twelve cents.

There is more lean meat, so the selling price is also cheaper.

Everyone in their family has gained a lot of weight, their faces are flushed, and they can tell that the food at home is very good.

The two siblings are also very satisfied.

It's really good for them to marry and live together.

After dinner in the evening, when they heard that they were asked to bring home half a basket of eggs, they immediately smiled, but they declined a bit, and seeing that they couldn't refuse, they sincerely thanked: "Thank you, brother."

There are quite a lot of eggs in this half basket. When they returned to their natal home in the second year of junior high school, they didn't bring that much.

I also told my family that they are all living a very good life.

After He Zeyang finished eating, he asked them to take the eggs back.

The natal family of the second sibling is good.

The natal family of the third sibling has almost severed ties.

However, before the third sibling got married, an old woman in the village treated her very well.

So she probably took these things back to honor the other party.

It was agreed that these things would be taken back to their natal family, and they were too embarrassed to stay at home to eat.

Besides, they don't lack that little thing.

They can eat a meal of meat every three to five times, which is much better than when they are at home.

They were very happy to be able to take something back to improve their meals.

After all, they have been married for less than a year, so of course they dare not say that they want to help their natal family.

"By the way, our family plans to buy a medium-sized paddy field of one mu. If you know anyone who sells fields, you can tell me." He Zeyang said calmly.

The rest of the family were even more surprised. This is really a great thing, no wonder I bought meat again today.

They remember that today is not a day to buy meat.

Their family buys meat every two or three days.

"Brother, do we have enough silver in our family?"

He Zeyang nodded, "It's enough, don't worry."

In addition to the six taels of silver to buy paddy fields, he still has more than ten taels of silver.

These ten taels of silver must not be moved.

Keep it as a spare.

In the future, if the family has money, they can buy land, but the ten taels of silver will always be kept.

Don't be afraid of [-], just be afraid of what happens.

You can get money even if you need it urgently.

"Okay, brother, we will also pay attention to inquire outside."

"Are you going to a nearby village?"

"Well, the one nearby is the best, be careful, don't be fooled by others." Ren Yu also warned.

How is a family's property? Most of the time, what you look at is whether there are many fields in the family?

At the beginning, their family almost had no land, and the second and third younger siblings were willing to marry over as part of their family.

"Brother, we know. When we go back to our mother's house tomorrow, we will ask for help."

Both of them had big smiles on their faces. The family could buy a paddy field so soon, even if it was only one mu, it would be very good.

The family house has been built, and there is a lot of money in hand, and the family started to buy land again.

The days will get better and better. Although they don't understand where the money to buy the field comes from, they know that they will have a share in the field when they are separated in the future.

"That's all. If there's nothing else, let's go."

"Brother, there is something I want to discuss with you."

He Zeyang nodded, "Tell me."

"That is, we plan to raise more chickens. The eggs can be exchanged for money, and the chickens can also be bought."

"It's a good idea, but how many are you going to raise? Where are the eggs sold? What are you going to feed the chickens?"

"Brother, we have already made up our minds. Now we will raise less chickens, and we will only raise thirty or forty chickens. When we have experience, we will raise more. Just feed them some pig food, and when they start laying eggs, we will feed them rice bran."

"When the eggs arrive, let's figure out a way first, go to the restaurant in the town and ask, otherwise it's okay to provoke the town to sell them."

He Zeyang looked at Ren Yu.

Ren Yu thought for a while and said, "Where are you raised?"

"Home."

"Yes, it is possible, but when the time comes, we must improve hygiene, separate a place, and let them move around in one place."

"Ok."

The third brother and sister are very suitable for raising chickens. She usually takes care of the chickens and pigs at home, and they are also cleaned up. Moreover, the piglets caught together, she insists on raising them bigger.

Suitable for farming.

Ren Yu added, "If you don't have enough money, you can borrow some from us."
