The Prestigious Family’s Young lady and the Farmer

Lin Qingwan explained her thoughts to the couple, and Yang Tiezhu, who was listening next to him, understood it, but the couple didn't seem to understand.

But second sister-in-law, then we have to eat rations every year, and we have to give father a stone of grain and a tael of silver every year. If we don't plant the land, where will it come from? Yao Shi said worriedly.

Lin Qingwan sighed and said, Let me do the math for you. Two acres of land are all planted with wheat, and one mu of wheat yields a little more than two stones of wheat...

Yes, only after Lin Qingwan learned about it, did she realize how dreadful farming was here. The yield of several thousand catties per mu in her previous life was simply a fantasy here.

The soil and water in Luoxia Village is quite good, but the climate is colder, and it cannot be done twice a year like in the south, and only one crop can be planted each year. If one mu of land is planted with wheat, it will yield more than 200 catties per mu, about two stone. This is still the season of good weather. Two acres of land can be carefully adjusted, and you can receive about 4 stone of grain. One stone is 120 pounds, and 4 stones is more than 400 pounds. Unhulled wheat sells for 6 or 7 cents per catty, and more than 400 catties is about three taels of silver.

Of course, many villagers in Luoxia Village exchange fine grains for coarse grains to eat, and then save their taxes and rations for a year. In fact, there is not much left.

If you think about it, you can rent out the land and charge 6 floors of rent every year, which is more than 200 catties. Take the tax and you can still have a hundred and ten catties left. Then free up the time for other things. After a year, Lin Qingwan doesn't believe that she can't get that little three or four taels of silver.

Of course, this kind of thinking is very difficult for farmers who have been relying on farming for a living, because they have never had that awareness. Including Yang Tiegen and Yao Shi who helped Lin Qingwan make some fresh preserved meat and get some dividends, they only thought that they would make allowances for the family's income during the slack farming season.

Lin Qingwan explained it to them in a very common way, and both of them couldn't help but ponder. Yang Tiezhu also pondered on the side, but every time he helped the family to farm the land, it was a habit with Mr. Yang. When he wanted to come, he could support Wanwan even if he didn't farm the land. something back.

Since Wanwan doesn't want to farm now, so don't. Twenty-four filial and good husband Yang Tiezhu, but his daughter-in-law has always said what he wants.

After thinking about it for a while, Yao Shi was the first to speak, Xiang Gong, I think what the second sister-in-law said is very reasonable. Even if you don't farm the land during that time, you can work in the town for more than a few taels of silver for a year.

Yang Tiegen went to the town to work as a coolie, and at the end of the month he could get around a tael of silver. Of course, people would get tired.

Of course Yang Tiegen would also count this, but the second sister-in-law's statement subverted all his previous ideological theories and made him feel at a loss.

If a farmer does not farm, is he still a farmer?

Lin Qingwan didn't intend to turn the minds of the three-bedroom couple over at once. After all, everyone's ideas are different, and she can't make decisions for the three-bedroom.

However, she still reiterated her plans and concerns about Yang Tiezhu's injury, as well as some considerations about the fresh preserved meat business, and told the three families and the couple that as long as they could follow her in the business of fresh preserved meat, the dividends would remain the same. Not a single point is missing.

The three-bedroom couple went back to the house to think about it, and Lin Qingwan went back to the kang.

Daughter-in-law, I found that you are so smart, why didn't I think of this before? Yang Tiezhu looked at his pretty daughter-in-law with glowing eyes.

Lin Qingwan smiled smugly, You haven't discovered much yet!

This kind of conversion thinking is a must for every modern person. It can only be said that the people here are still too rigid. Day after day, year after year, non-stop work can only be exchanged for very meager survival necessities.

In fact, sometimes you change your mind and change your concept, and maybe life will bring you another surprise.

Chapter 71

Yang Tiegen figured it out quickly, and he decided to give it a try. Even if there was no second sister-in-law's bacon, he wanted to make some money with his hard work this year.

Of course, farming can also provide food and clothing, but there is no other great promise. For these two acres of land, the tax has left rations to support Mr. Yang a stone a year, and the rest can even collect the one or two silver. Not enough, he still has to go out to do odd jobs to make up for it, it is better to go out to do odd jobs directly, although people are more difficult, but also more money.

After Yang Tiegen told Lin Qingwan, he began to think about who to give the land to. People who don't understand don't dare to rent, for fear that it will be more troublesome for them to drag their renters.

After knowing their plan, the Yang family solved the problem for them.

Yang's land has always been rented for others to plant. This time Xia Dacheng returned to his hometown in despair, so he wanted to take the land back and plant it himself. Mrs. Yang had told the family who lived in her land a few years ago that although others were helpless, they were all from the same village after all, and it was understandable that they had difficulties at home.

It's just that this family is poor and has a large population. The annual output of only four acres of thin fields is not enough for the family to chew on. It has been growing the Yang family's land these years. Now the Yang family takes the land back. Immediately got into trouble.

The Yang family is also very guilty, but no matter how guilty they are, they must take care of their own life first. It happens that the two brothers Yang Tiezhu and Yang Tiegen want to rent out the few acres of land they have, so they will directly rent it to that family.

The Yang family of this family has been practicing Taoism for many years, and they know each other very well. The family would come here to rent their children every year when they received food, and never brought any in arrears.

In this way, it was just right to get together. The family didn't have to worry about their livelihood. Lin Qingwan and the others also found a tenant.

After Lin Qingwan, Yang Tiezhu and the couple signed the tenancy documents with the family, they planted the land for others. The next thing to do is to think about your own livelihood.

In fact, Lin Qingwan's advice to the three-bedroom couple is not unsure. Since the sluggish days after the New Year, the business of several restaurants in the town has improved, and the sales of preserved meat has gradually recovered.

Of course, the reason why the bacon is called baixian is because it was made when the weather was cold in the twelfth lunar month. Lin Qingwan thought hard during this period of time, and also thought that in her previous life, those stores that sold braised vegetables could buy sausages, all year round. Yes, that is to say, sausages can be made and sold not only in the twelfth lunar month in winter, but also at other times.

It's just that the bacon made in the twelfth lunar month of winter may not have a good taste and the taste is not mellow, but if you put more effort into the taste, it should be able to make up for it.

Of course, preservation is also an aspect. In summer, this kind of thing is not stored, which means that they can't just put hundreds of kilograms and sell them slowly as they do now. At that time, it must be very hard for people, but isn't it very hard to farm the land? It is also in the summer when a drop of sweat falls two petals in the ground to plan food. It's all hard work, and you must choose to make more money.

After thinking about this, Lin Qingwan calmed down. In addition to raising the fetus, it is to try out some other flavors from time to time.

She even thought about it, this preserved meat can be promoted to other places, such as several nearby towns, or Huaihe County, or further afield. It's just that it's all in the future. She has a big belly now, and these things can only be done for Yang Tiegen and Yang Tiezhu after raising her arms. Regarding Yang Tiegen, Lin Qingwan was still a little uneasy. Although he was much more flexible than before, he was still clumsy. She is a good man, and should be able to do this kind of task similar to business promotion...

Lin Qingwan thought to herself, touched her stomach with her hand and smiled.

********

Yang Tiezhu felt that the time was almost up, so he went to the town to remove the bandage on his shoulder.

After dismantling it, as expected, Lin Qingwan grinned as soon as she moved. It seems that it will take some time to restore the past.

Based on her meager medical knowledge, Lin Qingwan told Yang Tiezhu that he should take his time to recover, and he couldn't make it hard all at once. He slowly moved his arms, muscles, and bones so that he could react slowly.

Yang Tiezhu was also obedient. Although he didn't understand why his daughter-in-law knew so much, he still exercised his arms and shoulders slowly every day.

After ploughing the ground, Mr. Yang had already started to sow seeds in the field. It was useless for Yang Tiesuan to resist and run away. Now that there is no strong labor at home, only these two people can go to the ground to live.

Although He was weird and unreasonable, he still felt sorry for his old man. Seeing that the old man was very tired during this time, he drove Wang to the field to work.

It was useless to resist Wang several times, and there were quarrels and quarrels. He threatened to divorce her if they made a fuss, and Wang had to go to the ground angrily.

However, Lin Qingwan thought, Mrs Wang won't be able to hold on for long, and she will keep jumping and making a fool of herself. Mrs He's headache will still be in the future, but what does this have to do with her?

...

Since the sky is getting warmer, the warmth of the sun has enveloped the earth. Every day when the sun is good outside, Lin Qingwan will move a chair and sit outside to bask in the sun, and by the way, she has watched a lot of good shows.

In order to sit comfortably, she also went to Carpenter Cui to order a rocking chair.

At that time, Lin Qingwan specifically asked Carpenter Cui, who knew that rocking chairs were here, but it was not common in Luoxia Village, and Carpenter Cui would still do it.

Lin Qingwan, who had expected Su Yi, had no choice but to touch her nose and come back.

After the rocking chair was made, Lin Qingwan fell in love with it. She sewed a thick cotton mat and spread it on it herself, and asked Yang Tiezhu to help her move out whenever the sun was good. She sat outside for a while in the sun.

Although Yang Tiezhu can't use his other arm, he is so strong that he can lift the rocking chair out with one hand.

At this time, Lin Qingwan was sitting at the door of her house, lying on a rocking chair basking in the sun. Yang Tiezhu was afraid that it would be inconvenient for her to drink water, so she made a small table and put it aside, with water bottles and some snacks on it. .

Wang Shi had just been cleaned up by He Shi, and the whole person was very disheartened. Turning around and seeing Lin Qingwan's leisurely energy, she was instantly furious. Before Mr. He entered the main room, she decided to instigate it twice.

Oh, second brother and sister, you are living a leisurely life. Everyone else is busy farming the fields, but your family is the most leisurely. It's okay to be idle by yourself, and take the third and the two to idle together. What? I'm going to go in the future Did you drink the northwest wind? It doesn’t matter if you drink the northwest wind, don’t miss the support of your parents every year.”
