Rebirth of the Poor Girl

Tian Minyan kept thinking about Liu Ruyu's awkward child, but she couldn't figure out how she had offended him, wouldn't she be angry because she didn't call him by his name?

"Second Miss, did you listen to me?" Xiao Xing tugged at her sleeve, pouted and looked at her dissatisfied.

Tian Minyan glanced at her indifferently, and said, "I know, it's nothing more than how Madam Zheng abused you and how cruel your life in Liu's house was, right?"

Xiaoxing's pink face was slightly red, and she said embarrassingly: "That's not as serious as what you said, second girl."

Tian Minyan chuckled, and said: "You were born in the Liu family, and it is for your own good that Madam Zheng treats you harshly. In the future, even if you leave our Tian family and go to a better place, you won't be underestimated. "

Xiao Xing's face turned pale, and he stared wide-eyed and said: "Second Miss, why should I go to another house? I'm your slave and maid, I won't go to another house. Second Miss, do you want to climb me away?"

"Don't be nervous, I didn't talk about climbing you, but if you don't do well, or violate my bottom line, that's another matter."

"Second girl, don't worry, this slave will know." Xiao Xing has learned the rules for two days, but he is much more polite than before.

"Let's go, follow me to the town." Tian Minyan smiled and walked towards West Street.

Now the farmers' crops are mostly rice and wheat, as well as cassava, peanuts and sweet potatoes, and corn. Tian Minyan's [-]-acre wasteland, she initially thought of planting peanuts and sweet potatoes, and then soybeans.

But, before that, she wanted to go to the seed store to see if there were any seeds with better yields and easier planting.

In Faji Vegetable Seed Shop, there were two or three farmers in coarse clothes picking seeds, Tian Minyan walked in, the shopkeeper just finished a business, saw Tian Minyan and asked with a smile: "What kind of vegetables do you want to buy, Miss? All kinds of seeds we send out are complete and high-quality, but they are the first ones in this town."

Tian Minyan glanced at the large shelf on the left side of the entrance, with all kinds of seeds on it, labeled with names, but they were just ordinary things.On the right side, there are grown vegetable seedlings, full of emerald green, with the same names on them, and there are only a few that Tian Minyan knows.

Tian Minyan asked for several types of rapeseed, and then asked the shopkeeper for some grain seeds to look at, and found that it was only the seeds sown last autumn, not much different from the ones she kept at home, but the source of them was from Shandong. .

After the grain was planted, there were some grain sprouts in a small wooden frame. Tian Minyan picked it up and looked carefully. In modern times, Shandong rice is also good, especially pearl rice, which is most suitable for porridge. What Tian Minyan sees now What arrived was pearl rice.

The rice in Yangmei Village also grows pearl rice, but Tian Minyan has asked about several old crops, and the yield per mu is only about two shi.

Tian Minyan thought about many reasons for the low yield, such as planting seedlings, transplanting seedlings, fertilizing, irrigation, watering and removing insects, and changing the fields. They all did this, but the yield was between two stones and two and a half stones. From this point of view, the soil in the paddy field is not enough. The reason for the fertility and the seeds too.Thinking of this, Tian Minyan became more determined in her plan to raise fish in rice fields.

Faji's winter wheat seeds were okay, Tian Minyan bought fifty catties, and planned to plant winter wheat after the autumn crop of rice.

The wheat seeds were heavy, Tian Minyan told them to put them away first, and she turned around and asked someone to pick them up. When she was about to walk out the door, she sharply saw the rapeseed seedlings, and a few yellowish wrinkled skins hidden behind the sweet potato seedlings. Round objects.

She was taken aback for a moment, and then she was very pleasantly surprised, she reached over and took out one of them.

"Shopkeeper, this is..."

"Oh, this is a crop from the Western Regions. It's called potato. I heard that many people eat it. It was brought back by our boss a few days ago for us to try. It is said that it is also very full." The shopkeeper came over. , explained after looking at the seedling in her hand.

"This is a potato." Tian Minyan corrected him.

"That's right, the girl also recognizes it?" The shopkeeper's eyes lit up.

Why don't you recognize potatoes, that is, potatoes. A few days ago, Tian Minyan saw tomatoes, so she bought a lot to learn how to make tomato sauce, and then thought of French fries, but she asked, and sadly found that there are no potatoes in the southern country.

Tian Minyan did not answer directly, but only asked: "Shopkeeper, how many potatoes do you have here? How much money do you plan to sell?"

"The owner said that if someone wants them, these potatoes will only be sold for five yuan a catty."

"Shopkeeper, I want all the potatoes in your store, you have to weigh them." Tian Minyan quickly took out the money bag from her arms and said, "This is the settlement."

"Slow down, girl."

Tian Minyan paused when she took out the silver, and looked up at the shopkeeper: "What's wrong?"

"Girl, the owner entrusted someone to bring these potatoes back for a taste. He is still in the Western Regions, so they haven't been sold in the store yet." Seeing Tian Minyan being so forthright, the shopkeeper couldn't laugh or cry, he had never seen such a hurry.

Tian Minyan was taken aback for a moment, then became more cheerful, and asked, "Then when will your boss come back?"

"About half a month or so."

"It's okay, do you have a channel to send a message to your boss to ask him to bring me more potatoes? I can place a deposit to make an appointment."

"How much do you want, girl?"

"Well, one hundred catties, no, three hundred catties..." Three hundred catties, even if it is not enough to plant a hundred acres of wasteland, it is almost the same.

"So many." The shopkeeper took a deep breath, looked at the little girl in front of him, and asked hesitantly, "Girl, do you want to grow these potatoes? Do you know how to grow them?" The latter words were a bit tentative. up.

Tian Minyan smiled and said: "I have also seen a record of this potato in a foreign land. It is also called a potato. It is said that it has a high starch content, but it can be eaten as a meal. It is a good thing to eat when there is a famine, and the taste is not bad. .As for how to grow it, I didn’t go into details, so I just guessed and estimated, and I couldn’t count it. I just thought, it’s fine if I can grow it, and if I can’t grow it, I can eat it.”

The shopkeeper smiled relievedly, also, how could a yellow-haired girl with no hair grow know how to grow this thing, I'm afraid it's just a taste of something new.

But he didn't say it clearly, he just said: "I understand that the girl wants to hide her secrets, but it's only three hundred catties, will it be too much?"

"It's okay, my family just opened a hundred acres of wasteland, so I want to try to grow these potatoes." Tian Minyan chuckled.

The shopkeeper was startled, and asked, "Is the girl from the Tian family of Yangmei Village?"

Tian Minyan didn't expect her family to be so famous, so she couldn't help but smiled, nodded, and gave him half a tael of silver: "Shopkeeper, this is a deposit, please tell your boss, if he comes back, let someone come to know I will say a word." After that, he took Xiaoxing and left again, before leaving, he smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, why don't you give me all these potatoes first? I want to taste this too."
