Exile Transformation [Farming]

After the first day of the new year and the second day of the new year, they started to visit relatives.

On this day, there were a lot of people from other villages in Squat, all of whom were daughters married from Shen Village and people from her husband's family.

As soon as they came back, they could sense that something was wrong in the house.

Shen Xiaohong is one of the married women. She has a strong stomach. After five years of marriage, she gave birth to two white and fat sons in her husband's family. She is very talkative in her husband's family.So this day she packed her things early in the morning, and took her husband and son back to her natal home.

"Mother, where are father and elder brother?"

Shen Xiaohong's mother raised her head, lacking in interest, "We're all watching the excitement."

Shen Xiaohong and her husband are a little strange. In the past, they would bring a lot of things here every year. His mother-in-law has always been very warm to them. Why is her attitude so cold today?

"Mom, what excitement is more important than your daughter? They don't know that I'm coming back today?"

"Don't you see each other often? What's there to see? Why don't you cook, and the dishes are all ready-made, just put them in the cabinet, and I'll go to the center of the village to see the excitement?" Shen Wang was also curious. In a panic, she really felt that the matter of soybean oil extraction was indeed more important than her daughter's return to her mother's house.

Shen Xiaohong was going to die of anger, look at what her mother said?What excitement is more important than a girl?

Just when she was about to get angry, her man grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the door, "It's the second day of the new year, don't be angry, mother definitely didn't mean it."

"Then what does she mean?"

"So, you help your mother cook at home, and I'll go see what's going on?"

Shen Xiaohong nodded reluctantly, her man entered the house, asked about the location, and walked towards the drying yard in the village.

On the way to the drying yard, Ye Chuba didn't see anyone. By the way, Ye Chuba is Shen Xiaohong's husband, because the day his mother gave birth to him happened to be Chuba.

When he finally arrived, he managed to see a person, and he walked up quickly, "Brother, what happened in your village recently?"

"Aren't you from Shen Village?"

Ye Chuba nodded, and the man said, "I'm here to watch the excitement."

Ye Chuba understood that it was another person in the same situation as him.

"You said what happened in Shen Village, why did everyone come to the drying yard?"

The man shook his head, "I don't know, I just came here too."

A few tens of meters away, they saw a lot of people around the drying yard, which was even more lively than the tax collectors in their village collecting taxes.

Before they could get around, they saw the crowd parted, and someone came out carrying a load. He looked at the liquid in the bucket, and somehow felt familiar.

Why is this a bit like the clear oil my cousin brought back from the county?

"Er Gang, show me, is it oily?"

The smile on Shen Ergang's face couldn't go away, only a smirk remained, "It's oil, it's oil. My second uncle sent oil to my house a month ago, otherwise I can go up to squeeze the oil?"

Shen Yu wanted to cover his face, feeling that the Er Gang was too honest.

"who is the next?"

Shen Xiang quickly said, "It's me, it's me, look at the front and give way, give way."

Ye Chuba and the people behind looked at each other, but they still didn't understand the situation clearly.

Fortunately, he saw his father-in-law and uncle in the crowd, and went directly to them.

His father-in-law saw him coming, "Is it the eighth day? When did you arrive? Why didn't your mother come and call us?"

How can Ye Chuba care about this at this time?What he cared about was the oil they mentioned just now, "Father, what are you doing?"

"Extract oil, use beans to extract oil, and now we are testing the results."

"Extract oil from beans? Is that the kind of soybeans?"

"Ah."

Ye Chuba wondered if he heard it wrong?Didn't my cousin say that these are very precious?There is nothing to sell in the town at all, even in the county, it costs forty to fifty yuan a catty.

So what is he seeing now?That man just picked up half a bucket, more than ten catties, right?That's almost a tael of silver.

"Father, there was so much oil in the big brother's bucket just now, how many beans did it take to fry it?"

Shen Xiaohong's father didn't care too much, "It seems that I picked a load in, at least 100 catties, and there is such a little oil, which is a bit worthless, and this oil is squeezed from beans, which can be compared with lard. than?"

He didn't know the truth about it, but Ye Chuba figured it out!

He looked at the old man a little speechlessly, if this is not worth it, then what else is worth it?

Before he started to complain, his father-in-law started to complain again, "And what's the use of those oil cakes after oil pressing?"

Ye Chuba doesn't know what's the use?He had only just heard about it from his cousin, and he knew there was such a thing as clear oil.

"His fourth father, the village chief already talked about it, let's talk about it later, what are you talking about now?" The people next to him were not very happy.

Shen Xiaohong's father just stopped talking, but he still felt that the soybean oil was not worth the money, more than 100 catties of beans, although eating too many beans is not good for people, and it costs money, but it can manage the whole family to eat for twenty days or even It's been a month.But what's the use of squeezing the oil?How long is that ten catties enough to eat?

In fact, most of the people present had the same idea. Although Shen Cun was not so poor that he ate beans as his staple food, he occasionally ate them as a side dish.

This is also why Shen Yu didn't consider the current market situation well. This kind of bean oil extraction can only be applied to people in the town or those who are relatively wealthy.

If there is any village in the nearby villages that can buy an oil press, Taoli Village will be the first to pick it up.

When it was almost noon, the three loads of beans picked had been squeezed, and it was time to get down to business.

Village head Shen knocked on the copper basin hanging on the tree, and the somewhat noisy environment immediately quieted down.

"I've said what I should say just now, and now everyone can see that beans can also extract oil, and you don't have to buy lard for oil. After all, every family has soybeans. Anyone who wants to eat oil for cooking Take a dozen catties of beans, squeeze a couple of catties and go back and eat them for a month or two. The oil bran left over from the oil extraction is not useless." Uncle Shen grabbed a handful of oil cakes, "It can be used It can be used to feed pigs, or it can be used as fertilizer to fertilize the fields. Under normal circumstances, an acre of land is about [-] to [-] catties, or it can be sold to Shen Er’s family in the village for two catties and one penny.”

It was still Uncle Shen who was amazing, and he hit the crux of the problem right away.If you ask someone to bring 100 to [-] catties of beans to squeeze oil at once, everyone will be reluctant.But ten or twenty catties is not a big problem. Rural people eat oil and eat frugally, and they can eat two or three catties of soybean oil for two or three months.

Moreover, the oil cakes after oil extraction have a place to go, so naturally there are no other problems.

"Village chief, it's really two catties and one penny!" Someone asked in disbelief.

At this time, it was old man Shen's turn to speak, "It's two catties for a penny. If you have some at home, you can bring them to my house, and the rice bran at home is also the same price, two catties for a penny."

Harvesting rice bran is already a very normal thing. Their family did it last year, and everyone nodded to show that they knew it.

"The village chief, when can we come to extract oil?"

"Anytime is fine. Remember, the oil extraction starts at [-]:[-] every morning, and it has to be closed at [-]:[-]."

"Do you want money then?"

This is the key question. When this question comes out, everyone stops talking!They all looked at Uncle Shen.

"There is no charge, but whoever has a problem with the oil press will fix it." Seeing that everyone was a little nervous, Uncle Shen said with relief, "This oil press is very strong. It’s all going to be okay.”

Everyone looked a little better.

"Okay, I've said what needs to be said, whoever wants to take possession of it can move the beans over here."

When Uncle Shen finished speaking, the crowd dispersed.

It's not like all the beans came back, after all, it's noon, everyone has to go back to eat.

In the next few days, the oil press next to the drying yard has not stopped, and people have been going to press the oil.

As Village Chief Shen said, everyone does not squeeze much oil, and the family only uses ten or twenty catties of beans to squeeze oil, and it looks like three or four catties can be squeezed once or twice. If you eat sparingly, you can eat two or three Month, I'm a bit reluctant, is it not a problem to eat for half a year?

However, the news that Shen Village had an oil press still spread, and people from other villages even came to ask if they could bring the beans here to extract oil?They will pay a labor fee, of course not too high, 50 catties of beans will give you three Wen.

Uncle Shen nodded resolutely. If he earns a lot of cheap money, he will not have to pay so much for the repair of the ancestral hall in the village next time.

On the eighth day of the eighth day, Shen Yu went to the town and gave the samples and assembly drawings directly to the shopkeeper Hu, saying that the rest of the matter would be handled by the shopkeeper Hu, while he shrank back and became a hands-off shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Hu was left speechless by him, and he was always puzzled by Shen Yu's inexplicable trust.

"Brother Shen, do you trust me that much?"

Shen Yu himself was baffled, he just found it troublesome.But people have asked the head, can he still say that it is because of this?Of course not.

Otherwise, what if the boat of friendship capsizes?

"Naturally, I trust Shopkeeper Hu as a man."

The smile on shopkeeper Hu's face became even brighter, and he repeatedly assured, "Please rest assured, little brother Shen, just leave this matter in my hands, and I promise to handle it clearly."

Next, Shen Yuyou explained all the sales methods in his previous life, and shopkeeper Hu nodded repeatedly, thinking that Brother Shen would be sorry for his clever mind if he didn't go to trade.

Coming out of the town, Mu Jing asked, "Shall we go to Taoli Village now?"

Today they originally planned to go to Taoli Village, and planned to order a batch of ducklings. No matter what, they had to try how to raise ducks. Even if there was the legendary second sister Shen with big hands, he had never raised ducks himself, so he had no idea.
