Chapter 228 The first taste of the sweetness of the harvest(1/2)

Time flies, Shike Village finally ushered in the harvest season of the first batch of silkworm cocoons!

The farmers who followed Zhang Daman to grow mulberry silkworms and raise silkworms looked at the white cocoons formed in the silkworm room, as if they were in the autumn harvest season, and looked at the orange corn cobs in the field.

However, silkworm cocoons are novel things, and they are full of expectations. I really don’t know how much these white silkworm cocoons can be exchanged for.

According to the silkworm breeding technique taught by Zhang Daman, how to pick cocoons, pick the cocoons formed and put them in snakeskin bags.

Zhang Daman had already made an appointment to ask these villagers to put the collected cocoons in snakeskin bags and take them to the village committee for purchases together, and then he transported them to the county town and sold them to the cocoon buyers.

During this period, Shike Village also ushered in a relatively good village-level highway. From the previous bumpy mountain road, it was repaved with sand and smoothed a lot.

Vehicles outside also entered the village committee of Shike Village.

There were even vehicles that started to buy iron ore. Some villagers did not grow mulberry trees and raised silkworms. They went to the land and picked up the iron ore and sold it to the bosses who bought iron ore for some money.

In contrast, the villagers who grew mulberry trees and raised silkworms with Zhang Daman were even more accomplished.

After they were exploring how much they could sell.

According to the purchase price given by Zhang Daman, 30 yuan per catty, many villagers had 100-200 cocoons in the first batch of silkworm cocoons. Even at the franchise fee of 5% per catty, Zhang Daman made a rough calculation and said that at least one batch of silkworm cocoons would be 3,000-6,000 yuan.

In this way, a batch of silkworm cocoons emerged in about a month, and less than two months.

Starting from around March of the year, you can raise silkworms until around September. Hurry up and you can raise almost 5 or 6 batches of silkworm cocoons. One batch has at least 3,000 or 5,6 batches, which also has an annual income of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan.

This can completely realize the dream of a household with tens of thousands of yuan!

Even if I had a rough calculation, the villagers who followed the mulberry planting and silkworms to regret it!

They regretted that they had not planted all mulberry seedlings in their homes, and most of them did not dare to take risks, and they only planted about half of the land.

Only about half of the land can earn 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a year. If all the land is planted and raised in silkworms, wouldn’t there be 30,000 or 40,000 yuan a year?

No wonder Zhang Daman became the richest man in Shike Village in such a short time!

These ignorant villagers have not yet gained benefits, and they will always take a questioning attitude. Once they taste the sweetness, they will become addicted.

The family closed the door, pinched their fingers and calculated the accounts, patted their thighs, and sighed, "Oh, I really regret it. I would have known that I would have planted mulberry seedlings on the land!"

It’s hard to buy a fortune!

All of this was almost expected by Zhang Daman.

He also breathed a sigh of relief in secret, especially after all the villagers' silkworms formed cocoons, his tense nerves finally loosened.

You know, whether he can fire the first shot is really important for him!

If the first shot can be fired, it means that in the future, more villagers will be involved in mulberry planting and silkworm breeding.

As long as they taste the sweetness, everything will be easy!

If this is messed up, they will not only not follow Zhang Daman to continue working, but will also dig out the eighteen generations of Zhang Daman's ancestors from the underground and scold them all.

Finally the dust has settled!

Zhang Daman was a little happy. At the agreed time, in addition to moving his own cocoons to the village committee, he also had to go to the village committee to acquire cocoons from other villagers.

During this period, he really gained more free labor, Guo Zhuang.

Guo Zhuang has been following him to study hard and practice Tai Chi, but he has also helped Zhang Daman work hard to raise silkworms.

After this period, Guo Zhuang's silkworm breeding skills and Tai Chi are almost ready to become a master.

He worked hard on and off the inside, which made Zhang Daman feel deeply relieved.

If Guo Zhuang hadn't helped him, it would be really difficult for him to work alone during these days.

At the entrance of the village committee, there were already many villagers gathered, crowded with people. There were villagers who participated in mulberry planting and silkworm raising, packing the cocoons in snakeskin bags, filling a row.

Some people are also looking at the fun, because today is the first time Zhang Daman has acquired cocoons. How much money can he earn from planting mulberry trees and raising silkworms? These villagers with wait-and-see attitude are more anxious to get the answer than those who participated.

When everyone saw Zhang Daman coming, they all smiled and gave Zhang Daman a thumbs up.

"Guo Zhuang, help me. Today I will purchase all the silkworm cocoons of the villagers and transport them to the county town!" Zhang Daman came to the village committee and gave an order to Guo Zhuang.

"Okay, Master, don't worry!" Guo Zhuang's thick arms were quite strong, and he was also very respectful to Zhang Daman.

He is also a very enthusiastic young man, so some kind villagers in Shike Village plan to introduce Guo Zhuang's wife!

Unfortunately, Guo Zhuang was not grateful and devoted himself to practicing martial arts. He really had a strong limbs and a negative emotional intelligence!

"Zhang Daman!"

Qin Lan is here too. This year she also planted mulberry leaves and raised silkworms.

She and the village chief Qin Zhenhua and mother Wan Ju, carrying three snakeskin bags and silkworm cocoons, were sent to the village committee.

According to what Zhang Daman told Qin Lan in advance, their cocoons are special, not only does not charge a franchise fee, but also will calculate the acquisition price separately.

Qin Lan believed that Zhang Daman would not cheat their family, so she also sent the cocoons and asked Zhang Daman to transport them to the county town for sale.

Of course, Zhang Daman would definitely not make the difference in the price of the Qin Lan family's cocoons. His cocoons could be sold for fifty-one pounds, but he would never pay for the Qin Lan family for 49-one pounds.

After all, whether it is because of Qin Lin or Qin Lan, he and the Qin family seem to be considered a family.

"Oh, village chief, you have a lot of cocoons!"

"That's right, this son-in-law serves as the technical guide for silkworm breeding, it's different..."

"That's right, maybe Daman has taught a lot of secret recipes!"

“…”

After the village chief Qin Zhenhua came, some villagers quipped.

"Hehe, look at what you said one by one. We Daman did not provide you with technical guidance on silkworm raising!" Village chief Qin Zhenhua felt happy.

After all, as the richest man in Shike Village, Zhang Daman is still very proud of his weight as a son-in-law.

When the girl Lin married into the Zhang family, this son-in-law would be a foregone conclusion.

As for rural people, no matter what kind of village chief or branch secretary, there is still a little vanity.

Whose daughter doesn’t want to marry a good man, Hu Hu, and marry a promising person.

"That's right, you guys, don't be so fair, Daman is very good!" Wan Ju also echoed, "Look at your cocoons are not small either!"

"Hahaha, sister-in-law, this Daman will be your son-in-law soon. It's such a blessing!" Some villagers said enviously.

Qin Lan heard it in her ears, and her heart was filled with mixed feelings, and she felt very uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, the Qin girl who married Zhang Daman was her sister Qin Lin, not herself.

...

...

...

Nightfall, Shanmiaotun, Zhang Daman's family.

"Master Liang, please tell me your fortune, if you have committed any evil star or disaster star. This year, our family is really worried..."

An old man in Zhongshan suit, wearing reading glasses, his hair was like snow, his head was bald, his face was full of years of ruts, and his vicissitudes of life were old, but his spirit was extremely energetic and he did not seem to be in a twilight depression because of his old face.

Wearing a pair of black cloth shoes, he sat upright on a stool at Zhang Daman's house.

He is the master of the great Feng Shui of Shike Village - Mr. Liang Da. The dead people set up temples, steering feng shui, and divining destiny are all the specialties of this Mr. Liang Da.

Some people in the village called him "Mr. Liang" or "Master Liang".

It is said that Mr. Liang is well-versed in Maoshan spells. According to legend, in his early years, he fought with people, and could break huge rocks with his fingers and drive away snakes, insects and wild beasts in the mountains.

It is even more said that when a dead man was having funerals in the countryside, usually several big men carried coffins to funerals, but Mr. Liang Da made a spell of "Flying and Death".

Legend has it that "Flying" means that during the funeral, the coffin is not carried by a few big men, but a sorcerer like Mr. Liang, who rides on the coffin and uses magic to drive it. The coffin flies up in the air, flies to the funeral, and goes to the cemetery.

Regarding Mr. Liang's legend, the "Flying and Sorrow" spell is only one of them.

Once, Mr. Liang passed by a farmhouse and traveled a long distance. He was very thirsty and asked the owner for a sip of water to drink. Unexpectedly, the hostess not only did not give a bowl of water, but also spoke rudely.

In a fit of anger, Mr. Liang used magic to drive a python to entrench in the water tank that filled the mistress's house. When the mistress opened the water tank, she was so scared that she was half-hearted.

If we talk about how Mr. Liang’s ability came about, it will be even longer and we have to start with a legend.

The county town where Shike Village is located is called Lingfeng County. A long time ago, there was a wealthy family in Lingfeng County, with a rich family surnamed Cen. This Mr. Cen relied on the endless wealth at home to raise his energy and recruit soldiers and horses. He thought that one day he would rise up and become the overlord of the country.

He recruited talents from the people, and finally one day, a Feng Shui master who traveled around the world came to Lingfeng County along the long-tracked dragon vein.

This Feng Shui master found the foot of the mountain in Lingfeng County and was immediately shocked by this wonderful Feng Shui. It was the dragon vein he had been looking for for many years.

Looking up, the mountains that stretched out seemed like a hovering flying dragon, and under the top of the mountain was a natural stone cave, like a giant dragon's mouth.

It’s vivid, it’s here, the dragon vein of the Feng Shui treasure land, it’s here.

For Feng Shui masters, once they discover such a surprising Feng Shui treasure land, they are all happy to dance.

Someone told Mr. Cen about this important discovery of Feng Shui master.

Mr. Cen was worried about finding a Fengshui treasure land to bury his ancestor's tomb, so he recruited the Fengshui master into the mansion and welcomed him warmly.

After some entertainment, Mr. Cen expressed his troubles and begged the Feng Shui master to steer the Feng Shui treasure land.

The Fengshui master pondered for a long time and finally agreed to Mr. Cen's request. However, there must be one condition, that is, from now on, Mr. Cen will take care of the Fengshui master for the old age and see him off.
