344 Workshop begins

"Brother Niu, do you feel that the sunflower this time is bigger than last year's?"

Dajin harvested a sunflower and cut off the sunflower flower plate. The sunflower flower plate was bigger than his head.

Wang Shihu and others couldn't help but nod. They remembered that the sunflower last year was not that big!

The villagers who were working that Niu Dali invited were not sure how big the sunflower plate was, but the sunflower in his hand was indeed quite heavy.

"Maybe I took good care of it?"

Niu Dali smiled honestly. As the saying goes, the younger waves of the Yangtze River push forward the older waves, and each generation is stronger than the next. These sunflowers are sunflower seeds planted with spiritual springs last year, so they are naturally better than last year.

Wang Shihu and others thought it might be this reason, so they didn't think much about it and continued to harvest the sunflower flower plate.

The three girls, Da Ya, Er Ya and Xiu'er, were very energetic. While playing, they picked up the sunflower flower plate in the field and put it in a sack.

"Sister, Xiu'er, do you think this is big?"

Erya held a big sunflower flower plate, with a slight sweat flowing on her forehead, showing off to Daya and Erya.

"How big are you? I'm so big!"

Xiu'er's little face was filled with joy, and she held up a sunflower flower plate, which looked like she was holding up the sun at first glance.

Niu Dali, Wang Shihu and others smiled and shook their heads.

After two days of harvesting, Niu Dali placed the harvested flower tray in front of the door and piled up a tall one. Li Xianglan called more than a dozen women to come and help get rid of the sunflower seeds from the flower tray.

Although these women were puzzled, what Niu Dali's family wanted these sunflower seeds to do, they were still very diligent when they had the wages.

The women were busy taking off the seeds and drying them. The men were busy burning the sunflower branches in the field, loosening the soil, preparing for ploughing, and preparing to plant sunflowers next time.

The matters that Niu Dali's family is busy with work are naturally unconcealed by the villagers.

Moreover, they also knew that Niu Dali had hired many villagers for help, and even heard that he would cost for 40 cents a day, which made many villagers envious.

However, more villagers were puzzled. They did not understand why Niu Dali and his family wanted to hire someone to harvest sunflowers. In their opinion, those sunflowers are beautiful, but they cannot be eaten or sold. What's the use?

"Do you think Niu Dali is stupid? I'm asking so many people to spend it just to give people a seed? Isn't this a pity that there is no place to spend money?"

"I used to think that Dali was planning to sell so many sunflowers, but after harvesting, I never saw him sell one! And I also heard that Dali still needs to plant it!"

For a moment, Xinghua Village was full of discussion.

Niu Dali was too lazy to pay attention to the argument and had no time to pay attention. He and Li Xianglan, Daya and Erya went to Suiye Town to buy a few large iron pots and cook spices for five-spice melon seeds.

I couldn't pull a car back, so I pulled it back twice.

Although the workshop has not been built yet, they have already started making five-spice melon seeds at home, and a strong five-spice scent gradually drifted out.

At the end of the month, Liu Fugui and Liu Xiaogu came in a carriage, and Niu Dali handed over five large bags of five-spice melon seeds to Liu Fugui.

According to what was said before, Liu Fugui bought five-spice melon seeds at a price of 200 cents per pound, and these five bags of five-spice melon seeds weighed at least 200 pounds. Liu Fugui generously gave him sixty taels.

Niu Dali thinks that the price of five-spice melon seeds is a bit expensive for 200 cents per pound, but nowadays, the rare thing is expensive. Only they can produce five-spice melon seeds, and the quantity is also limited.

Maybe if the five-spice melon seeds become popular in the future, there will be a lot of sunflowers in the race, but that will be the future.

"Shopkeeper Liu, how is the business of the Stork Tower now?"

Niu Dali talked to Liu Fugui’s uncle and nephew while kowtowing Guazi.

"For the blessing of brothers, our Stork Crane Tower has been doing well for a while because of the beggar chicken business. Every diner who has eaten beggar chicken praises the beggar chicken!" Liu Fugui smiled and said, "Now that these five-spice melon seeds are like a tiger's wings to my Stork Crane Tower!"

Liu Fugui is quite confident about the five-spice melon seeds.

"That's good!" Niu Dali nodded.

After a few words of chat, Liu Fugui and his uncle and nephew said goodbye and left.

In the afternoon, Niu Dali brought some five-spice melon seeds to Wang Qingyang's house. Wang Qingyang was salivating about the five-spice melon seeds, and the two chatted while knelt.

Niu Dali also expressed his intentions in the future. When he heard that he was going to buy land again, Wang Qingyang was a little surprised, but he was also expecting it.

After all, if you want to build a five-spice melon seed workshop, you must have enough melon seeds.

"Please guarantee me the land purchase!" Wang Qingyang agreed.

"Then I'm sorry uncle!" Niu Dali thanked.

"What trouble, thank you, I can't even have time!"

Wang Qingyang smiled very kindly. Niu Dali's family has hired many people to work these days, including many poor families in the Wang clan. He used to want to help these families, but his strength did not allow it!

Now, Niu Dali has done such a big move indirectly helped him, the leader of the Wang clan.

It will be two days later when the workshop is built. Five-spice melon seeds are produced in large quantities from this day. Niu Dali asked Li Xianglan to find some women with good personality to come and help.

It was also on this day that all the villagers of Xinghua Village realized that Niu Dali's family actually used the sunflowers to make food.

This was like a stone stirring up a thousand layers of waves, causing the entire Xinghua Village to burst into pieces.

"Do you know? Dali's plan to use the sunflower to make food?"

"I know, my brother and sister work in Niu Dali's workshop. I heard that it seems to be making melon seeds!"

"Can this thing be eaten when you make it?"

"Who knows, if you don't make good tea eggs, you won't be afraid of losing any melon seeds."

"Look, that workshop won't last a few days!"

The villagers were talking a lot, and curious people came outside the workshop to see what the so-called melon seeds were.

But no matter how others talk about it, Niu Dali's family is still busy with the five-spice melon seeds. Since most of the workshops are women, the workshop affairs are left to Li Xianglan to manage. Niu Dali is afraid that Li Xianglan will not be able to manage them, so he asked Widow Sun to help.

However, later, Niu Dali found out that he was thinking too much. Li Xianglan not only managed the workshop well, but also arranged the management in an orderly manner, which surprised Niu Dali quite a lot.

Later, he realized that when Li Xianglan was a maid in the past, she was the big maid around the lady. Generally, the big maids took care of many little maids. Li Xianglan was soft-hearted, but it did not mean that she was stupid.

Li Xianglan manages the workshop and Niu Dali manages the land. Now he has bought more than 20 acres of land. It is not realistic for one person to manage it. He invited the villagers who had harvested sunflowers before to cultivate the land and sow seeds together.
