Chapter 486

In fact, it is not a few households, but a dozen households.

This year's summer and autumn harvests were both good, and there was winter wheat as a base in the spring. Bai Shanbao also exchanged a pound and two taels for a batch of wheat with them, so most of the villagers in Qili Village were not short of food.

Therefore, not many companies decided to plant winter wheat.

Tired after all, right?

Throughout the year, everyone can only relax a little after the autumn harvest, and then plant winter wheat, which is equivalent to a really busy year.

This is really not a good sign.

But Lao Zhou's family decided to plant winter wheat. After his family contacted the village, several families agreed. Others hesitated again, and more than a dozen families followed.

That's what farming is like.

The reason why Lao Zhou's family decided to plant winter wheat was firstly because Manbao and their small farm wanted to plant it; secondly, Laozhou still missed the income from new wheat seeds; thirdly, the family already had cattle, and if they didn't plant it, it would feel like a waste.

However, they have no plans to plant more crops and will only plant 20 acres this year.

Other families are not as generous as the old Zhou family.

Planting two or three acres is enough, mainly because they don't have to worry about winter wheat.

Yes, everyone is so easily satisfied.

When Manbao and the others got off school, Mr. Zhuang was also invited over.

Mr. Bai liked the children to interact with Magistrate Yang very much, so Bai Shanbao and Manbao were left by him to accompany Magistrate Yang to dinner.

Yang Heshu also likes talking to his three children.

Talking to them doesn't have to be as troublesome as coaxing a child, nor does it have to be as troublesome as dealing with a cunning adult, nor does it have to worry that they won't understand what he's saying and feel powerless.

So the four of them soon formed a group, walking in the garden admiring flowers and talking, but left Mr. Bai and Mr. Zhuang in the pavilion playing chess.

Man Bao fell in love with a chrysanthemum and ran up to admire it.

Bai Erlang waved his hand very generously, "I'll give it to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Shanbao pinched the flower and put it on Manbao's head, and then couldn't help laughing.

Yang Heshu couldn't help laughing when he looked at his assholes that were almost as big as a baby face.

Man Bao felt that she was very beautiful, and even ran to the lotus pond at Bai Erlang's house to take a look. Bai Shanbao held her tightly and said: "It's very beautiful, very beautiful. We just walked over there, so don't go there."

"

Yang Heshu burst into tears from laughter. He wiped the corners of his eyes and nodded: "Yes, it's very beautiful."

Man Bao took the flower off and said, "Since it's so beautiful, it should be given to Master Yang. You are our parent official."

When Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang heard this, they felt it was right and grabbed Yang Heshu one after another. The three children worked together to put flowers on his head.

This time, Manbao laughed along with Baishanbao and Baierlang.

Yang Heshu waited until they had laughed enough before taking the flowers off their heads and asked with a smile: "Didn't you agree that you would come to my house when you have time to go to the city? Why haven't you guys gone?"

Man Bao said: "I have only been to the county town once before the Mid-Autumn Festival, but I went with my family. There were many people, so it was not easy to disturb adults."

Bai Shanbao also said: "We went to Yizhou during the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"Oh?" Yang Heshu saw that they were becoming more and more like adults, and their tone became more like that of their peers, "Is Yizhou fun?"

Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang nodded fiercely, "Their streets are very big and there are so many. We didn't even finish them after two days of shopping."

Manbao exclaimed, "So big?"

They both nodded together.

Man Bao said: "There must be a lot of delicious food."

"Of course," Bai Shanbao said, "I asked you to go or not."

Yang Heshu smiled and asked, "How lively is Yizhou?"

Bai Shanbao thought for a moment and said, "It's lively, but people are also weird."

"Oh, what's the weird trick?"

Bai Shanbao said: "There are many beggars in Yizhou, not only in the city, but also along the official road and outside the city gate. We haven't even entered the city yet, and they come up to beg with bowls. It's so pitiful."

Bai Erlang nodded repeatedly, "We don't have so many beggars in Luojiang County. They are very rare in the city, and there are only one or two in the villages and towns. Occasionally, I pass by and grab a bowl of porridge to eat."

The reason why Bai Erlang said this was because his family's house in Qili Village was the most elegant. Beggars passing by would hang out outside his house first. Every time, his grandmother would ask someone to give the beggar a bowl of rice, and then give him two bowls of rice.

Walk.

Bai Erlang has seen him several times since he was a child.

But only a few times.

So he was as surprised as Bai Shanbao about the beggars that could be seen everywhere in Yizhou.

Yang Heshu sighed quietly with his hands behind his back and asked: "They are all begging because of last year's natural disaster?"

"I've asked, most of them are, and some are from Yizhou from other places," Bai Shanbao sighed: "The prices in Yizhou are too high. One family's wontons are said to be particularly delicious, costing a full 20

A bowl of paper only costs seven pennies in Luojiang County."

Man Bao immediately popularized the science, "In the past, it only cost five Wen."

Yang Heshu thought thoughtfully, "The price of food over there must be very high too?"

Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang nodded together.

Yang Heshu looked amused, "Did you go out of your way to ask about the price of food?"

"Of course," Bai Shanbao said matter-of-factly: "There is a grain store not far from the courtyard where we live, so we went in and took a look."

Bai Shanbao said to Manbao: "My uncle has made us a lot of money. You must not know the price of our new wheat seeds in Yizhou."

"What's the price?"

Bai Shanbao said: "The price is sky-high! The grain shops don't even sell it, but the clerk said that if we want to buy that new wheat seed, we have to spend at least three hundred coins."

Man Bao was stunned, "A fight?"

Bai Shanbao nodded affirmatively, "One fight."

The three friends never had time to talk about these things, because he and Bai Er played too crazy on this trip, and the homework assigned by the teacher was not completed. As soon as they took the leave and returned, the teacher punished them with three times the homework.

Every day, Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang could only stay in the study and immerse themselves in homework, but Manbao could run home after finishing his homework to play with his nephews and nieces, without taking care of them at all.

Yang Heshu's eyes widened and he asked: "What kind of wheat costs three hundred cents a dou?"

His first thought was that someone was maliciously raising wheat seeds. At this critical moment of post-disaster reconstruction, this behavior was extremely bad.

The three children are very proud, "They are our wheat seeds."

Yang Heshu narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Is there anything special about your wheat seeds?"

"Of course." In order to promote their wheat seeds to Mr. Bai, the three of them, including Bai Erlang, listed the advantages of their new wheat seeds and then memorized them.

Although a long time has passed now, Bai Erlang can still remember it, so he and his two friends exchanged words with each other...

"Our wheat seeds grow in ears!"

"Our wheat plants are tall and strong."

"Resistant to drought and flood."

"The main reason is that the output is still high."

Yang Heshu asked with a smile, "How much did you sell it for?"
