Young rich peasants

This year's lychee harvest seems to be worse than last year's. Lychees have always been said to be big or small. Sometimes this year's harvest is bumper, and the next year's harvest will decrease.Experienced fruit farmers said that it may be due to bad weather or insufficient fertilizer.You can only do your best to obey the destiny.

Lei Shounuo patrolled the mountain for half a day, Zaozi got up and divided half of the meatloaf, and brought the scooped rice up to him for lunch.In the end, the two of them ate together.

After going down the mountain, Lei Shounuo went to the granary, where grain was stored.

Now the place is full of red-skinned sweet potatoes, and most of them are small, and occasionally there are a few big ones.How did this happen, Lei Shounuo sighed.The sweet potatoes sold outside are all big, even if they are thin, they are not as thin as those in the village.How to get it out?

The history of sweet potatoes in Chen Kingdom is not long, and the crops returned by boat from foreign countries have been more and more cultivated in the past hundred years.During the plague, there was a shortage of people to grow rice, and there was not much harvest. Many families survived on sweet potatoes.The leaves and sweet potatoes can be eaten, and they don't need to be taken care of, and they are also durable.

In the past decade or so, more people have planted sweet potatoes, and everyone has tried to make sweet potatoes bigger. In everyone's eyes, sweet potatoes are a kind of ration, and of course the bigger the sweet potato, the more full you can eat.This kind of two or three finger-sized ones is a question of whether anyone wants to take them out.

Although Lei Shounuo was quick-witted, he was still a novice in plowing and farming.After all, I don’t have my own field, and when I was young, I would help the villagers. After all, I didn’t do it myself from the beginning to the end, and they wouldn’t let you sow, transplant and harvest. He knew a lot of key things.

As he got older, he ran a business with Uncle Liang, so he had no time to think about farming.

Now...he finally has his own land, and the harvest is not good, but he can't help him with anything.

Lei Shounuo felt that he was useless, he was a man in charge of the family, but he didn't even know how to grow sweet potatoes, so how could he provide Zaozi and Xiaopai with a stable life in the future?

Doing business can make a fortune, but he was influenced by the people of the Lei family, and he always felt that only relying on business is not stable, and it is most practical to have land and land.

He planned in his heart, run for another two years, return the money to Zhu Miao, and then he will concentrate on being a farmer.

There was no solution to the sweet potato issue right now, so Lei Shounuo decided to go for a walk.He went to Xiacun with Zaozi to help Zaozi sell clothes.

Speaking of jujube, selling vests has also hit a snag.

The cloth shop in Xiacun now has vests for sale, and the handmade ones are much better than jujubes, and they are even embroidered with flowers.At first glance, you can tell that it was made by experienced tailors and embroidery workers, and they have the fabrics in their own shop, which greatly reduces the cost and sells them at a very good price.

Although Zaozi has a talent for needlework, he is still just a novice, and his talent is basically reflected in embroidery. He doesn't know anything about making clothes, and basically relies on his little dad's help.

However, no matter how good the little dad is, he can't compete with those who specialize in this industry, so he immediately found out that the vest is not selling well.

The little dad said, "There are few people in the lower village, jujube, I will take you to the county town to sell them, and today is Shiwuxu."

Lei Shounuo took the initiative to ask Ying, "Little Daddy, it's not convenient for you to go to the county seat, I'll just take Zaozi."

So Lei Shounuo hurried to the county town with Zao Zi and the burden on his shoulders.

The last time Zaozi was in the county town, he was beaten and pinched by a matchmaker, leaving a very bad memory.This time again, he held Lei Shounuo's hand tightly and dared not let go.

People were coming and going in the county town, and it was so lively that Zaozi let go of his courage before he dared to look up and look around.

As expected of the people in the city, they wear clothes that Zaozi dare not imagine, and even the hairpins are very delicate, even made of gold - the brother who has given birth to a child will tie up the braids and make them A simple pan head with a decent hairpin.

Most people will only insert one big one and one thin one, and more than two will make people laugh.

Zaozi was curious, so she ran to the stall to have a look.It is made of a piece of wood with no patterns. It is said to be a good wood from the north, which has its own fragrance.When he asked the price, it was enough for him to eat several meals of good meat.Zaozi immediately retracted his outstretched hand, fearing that it would be damaged.

Lei Shounuo thought to himself: After two years of consummation ceremony, good hairpins and combs are absolutely indispensable.

The two found a vacant seat in a remote corner. The stalls in the market had to charge money, and sometimes the corners were not charged.They were lucky, and they were robbed every step they took.

The guys passing by are dressed in different styles, bright, handsome, handsome...the men are not inferior, they are neatly dressed, and they don't have an imposing manner.Zaozi thinks that men don't like to dress up, like his brother Lei, who wears those clothes from the beginning to the end of the year, patching them when they are broken, and has never seen Lei Ge dislike him.But now he realizes that there are plenty of extravagances in a man.

"My collar is more than a penny." A man who came to look at the vest said.

Lei Shounuo thought, you get what you pay for, good clothes are worth a good price.Although some of them were flattered, but in the county town, it is really not a strange thing.Zaozi was a little worried, fearing that his vest would not be sold.

The man turned his clothes inside out, shook his head and said, "The style of your clothes is fresh, but the workmanship is not good. I'm afraid it won't catch the eyes of the people in the city."

Lei Shounuo saluted, and said, "I still hope that elder brother can give me some pointers."

The man said: "Look at the stitches, it's good to be dense and neat, but it's not right to show them all. The tailors in the city are now making clothes, and they can hide the stitches, or even make them so thin that they can hardly be seen. Yes, the color of the fabric is not well selected, it seems old-fashioned for men, and not stable enough for men."

It turned out that this man had a young father who was good at sewing, so he knew so much through his ears and eyes.

In the end he didn't buy anything and left.

Zaozi said: "Brother Lei, why don't we sell it cheaper?"

Lei Shounuo said, "Well, let's think of a way when we get back."

This time I bring out the last three pieces. Zaozi has several experiences and knows how to sell them.It's just that the county town was full of people, and he couldn't attract many people even if he shouted blue veins.

At this time, Lei Shounuo chimed in, and Zaozi's voice was immediately covered.Lei Shounuo's voice was very thick, as if coming from his stomach, and he pronounced the words clearly. After the first time he yelled, he attracted the attention of many people.

However, the people who came around watched more and bought less.Zaozi put on his vest and hat on the spot.

"What an interesting brother." A very tall brother, Uncle, squatted down and looked at Zaozi for a while, "Little man, is that your brother? Is he from Xu family?"

Lei Shounuo's expression turned serious, "He promised me a long time ago."

Brother Uncle showed embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I just saw your little Ada is cute..." His companions all laughed.

To express his apologies, he bought a vest and felt good after putting it on, so he chatted a little more in front of the stall.It also attracted a lot of people.

It was not until the afternoon that the remaining two vests were finally sold.

On the way back, Zaozi thought, the people in ancient times were so smart and powerful, and the clothes of modern people are exposed by the stitches, but they can sew so finely that they are not weaker than machines at all.

The idea of ​​jujube represents many modern people. They all think that the ancient people can’t eat enough with rags and rags. In fact, many things in modern times are passed down from the ancients. How could the ancients be so stupid?

Zaozi feels that there are as many things to learn here as in the orphanage.He needs to work harder.

On the other side, Lei Shounuo was thinking about another thing: Does he look similar to Zaozi?Someone actually mistook Zaozi for his younger brother... Tsk, it's hard to say that there won't be people like Deng Tuzi who covet his family in the future, it's too worrying.

He looked at Zaozi with his head tilted, wondering how to make Zaozi grow up faster.
