Nongmen Xiaofu's Reborn Wife
Chapter 581 Scolding Mom
But, the Chen family's rice field was in Xianggui City, Gu Dagui went to the rice fields in Xianggui City two days before, built a warehouse to live in, and with the help of He Wanli, it was with, in Xianggui City Guizhen found some local farmers and asked them to harvest rice.
Madam Chen is very depressed because of this: “If the rice field is close to home, our family can harvest it themselves. No need to hire people. It's really a loss."
The Third Grandma Seeing him plucking and searching, she said: "30 mu your family's rice fields, if you don't ask someone to cut them, can your four-member family harvest them all? You'll be too busy if you're exhausted." Chen scolded,
no, I was happy for a while, but I did not know what to think, and I became happy again, and said proudly with my chest raised: "What the third aunt said was that we are not farmers now, but landlords. How could there be a landlord who collects grain and does not employ people?"
Are those who do not hire people to work still called landlords?
"No, Dagui was too honest, so he didn't need to be bothered by the workers. I have to go and see tomorrow and see those workers working, lest they bully Dagui and spoil my family's food." Third Grandma Sure:
" Are you worried that Dagui will be intimidated by others, or do you want to show off the landlord's wife? You can rest easy, if you run away like this, Dagui will have to fight with you again." Chen was not afraid
: "If you fight, fight. Which family does not fight with the wife? The more we fight, the better our lives." Dagui cares about him, though,
and it's impossible not to let go. If she makes a fuss, it can still make Dagui feel bad, remember her daughter-in-law.
The third granny did not bother to tell him: "Go after you finish sharpening the grain knife, the old lady has no time to listen to your nagging." That grain knife
is a sickle, which is specially used to harvest rice and wheat crops. Mrs Chen also said that was enough, and brought two sharpened knives home, looked at the two knives as she walked, and said: "It is quite cost-effective to hire someone, and save
money to buy a knife."
The farmer will bring his own knife as a substitute for farming tools from the owner.
Xuanhufang knew that Gu Jinli and the others were busy harvesting rice, and upon learning that the pharmacy workshop had produced 20,000 bottles of tooth powder, they sent people to inspect the goods first.
A new group of people came to Xuanhufang. Although they were not as capable as Mu Tong and the others, they were also people who knew how to do things. They worked from morning to night all day, and finally finished all the powdered teeth and gave the remaining money of one thousand seven hundred taels.
After Gu Jinli got the paper money, he happily kept it.
Old doctor Wu also said: "Zhang the shopkeeper wrote to the shopkeeper Cheng saying that the tooth powder was very good. Every household in a wealthy family bought it. Every master has a bottle. The number of bottles is not much, just one or two. If you use it quickly, you should make it quickly. Otherwise, 20,000 bottles would not last long and would sell out. "Previously,
old doctor Wu muttered, saying that with this girl's temperament being nothing like a problem, how could she possibly only fill one bottle?Tael tooth powder will add the inspection time? Now I understand, it's the idea of wearing less, consuming faster, and selling more, it's really a hoax, and he's convinced.
He said again: "I'll send you another bottle in a few days, so I won't leave you without a bottle for tooth powder." Gu Jinli smiled: "
Thank you, Grandpa Wu."
What can the world do to make money in the long run? That is, consumables, especially consumables that are liked by the rich.
The rich don't lack money. Once they get used to one thing, they will get used to buying it. Tooth powder and mosquito repellent are common and quickly consumed items. It was right to make it and sell it.
After delivering the tooth powder, Gu Jinli and his family began to work hard to harvest the rice.
The Gu Jinli family bought 20 mu of rice fields from the Mr. Lu family, plus 80 mu of Songzizhuang rice fields, a total of 100 mu of rice paddies, but the yield of Dachu rice fields was not high, with an average of only 300 catties of rice per mu. . Even so, his family harvested almost 30,000 catties of rice, which instantly made the third grandfather and third grandmother cry.
"I never dreamed of being able to harvest this much rice. It's ten thousand catties. It's still rice. Once peeled, this is valuable rice. It won't be enough for ten years. "The third grandmother wiped her tears and said excitedly.
The rest of the family also harvested a lot of rice, and each family harvested several thousand catties, but the big man was very excited.
Gu Qingxi and Gui Niu, who were younger in the old Yan family, cried in fear, and Jin Niu cried and ran to Gu Jinli's house to look for someone. The third granny was anxious to hear it, and rushed to the pharmacy workshop to invite Uncle Dai to take a look.
Uncle Dai quickly rushed over to Lao Yan's house and woke Lao Yan up.
Brother Gu Damu heard that his mother had fainted, so he rushed back and asked Uncle Dai: "Doctor Dai, is my mother okay?" Uncle Dai
said: "Nothing serious, just pay attention in the future, but the old woman's body is very weak. It is best to take this opportunity to take the potion for a year or so to recuperate."
Gu Damu was a filial son, and his family did not lack money. Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Doctor Dai, just prescribe the medicine. I have to buy it for my mom."
After hearing this, Doctor Dai prescribed the medicine for Old Yan: "Three times a day during the first month, and once a day after one month."
Doctor Dai was the servant of the Gu Jinli family There was no consultation fee, so Gu Damu was only required to bring a prescription to Xuanhufang in the city to obtain the medicine.
The old Yan was dizzy for a while and sighed: "I used to get sick after taking antibiotics, how could I go to the doctor and take medicine, it was worth it." The third grandmother laughed: "You don't talk about it.
"Just a few words, enjoy yourself."
After the old Yan family settled down, several families were busy bringing grain to the workshop house for storage.
Due to the construction of the shop, the house of several families was still an old mud house, and there was no additional space to store the grain, after discussing with Gu Dashan's family, they brought the grain to the workshop house. It was easy to open several rooms to store food after entering the mansion.
Half of Gu Jinli's food was stored in Songzizhuang, and the other half was kept in the workshop house, in both places there were barns that could hold a lot of food.
After the rice harvest, some families began again busy harvesting grain on dry land.
This dry land was also purchased from the Lu master family and the Zou family, when it was purchased all planted with grains, such as soybeans, sweet potatoes, and vegetables stored in winter.
The Jianghuai and Jiangnan regions grow winter wheat, once the wheat is harvested, soybeans and sweet potatoes will be planted first, and will be harvested in late autumn before winter.
After harvest, they were busy growing winter wheat on dry land.
Since winters in Jianghuai and Jiangnan are not as cold as in the north, winter wheat can be grown on dry land, sowing starting in mid to late October, and then in the winter months, it will be ripe for harvest next summer.
Some families were busy from the first ten days of October to almost November, and it was only then that they completed their farm work.
"I still hire someone. If I don't invite someone, I'll be completely exhausted. " Chen said with a broken waist: "It's not easy being a hostess, too much land can make people die." But when I think about it
, Madame Chen was very happy with the food in the warehouse, and felt that no matter how tired she was, it was worth it.
But before he was happy for two days, official documents from the county government to raise the grain tax fell.
All food taxes will be raised by 10%, from 2 in 10 to 3 in 10.
When Madam Chen heard the news, he immediately scolded her: "Add a 10% food tax, how much is this? Our family still drinks porridge, and just wants to eat dry food, and you raise the food tax. What do you want A bully like that, my old lady is dead!"
