Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 465 Farming is Hard

On the return carriage, the four little ones collapsed on the mat and fell asleep soundly.

Li Minglan beat her sore shoulder, laughed at herself, and said, "I used to be a good hand at work, but now I'm so lazy that I can tire myself out by planting an acre of vegetable land... If my mother knows, You must scold me."

Li Mingyue leaned against the carriage, and said weakly: "Well, it's time for us to exercise hard, and we must be prepared for danger in times of peace."

When they returned home covered in mud, they learned that they had planted the land all morning, but it made Mrs. Liu feel bad. After saying a few words to them, they went to bathe and change clothes for the little ones with Nanny Zhuang.

Li Mingyue and Li Minglan took each other to the bathroom and took a hot bath, then fell asleep on the kang, and slept until dinner time.

At the dinner table, Li Mingzhi asked with interest: "I heard that you are still farming today?"

Li Mingyue nodded, "Well, life is too comfortable recently, find something to do for yourself, and keep your skin tight by the way."

Mrs. Liu glared at her, and said angrily, "I don't know what to do. Look, how tired are the little ones?"

Li Mingyue had her own reasons to persuade them, "These little ones are already spoiled, I just want them to remember their bitterness and think about their sweetness. Look, tonight, everyone's food is delicious, and I don't want to be picky." How good it is to be fat and thin."

Li Mingqing, the youngest, raised his head from his rice bowl, and said solemnly like a grown-up: "Well, the second sister said, don't waste food, who knows that every grain of Chinese food is hard... Farming is really hard, so Food cannot be wasted."

Li Mingyue smiled and picked a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs for him, "Well, be good."

Mrs. Liu was speechless, and agreed with Li Mingyue's words in her heart, so she didn't say anything else.

After dinner, Li Shou left Li Mingzhi and Li Mingyue behind.

"The weather has cooled down these few days. I was thinking that our workshop should also be ready to make vermicelli. However... there is still a shortage of manpower. Should we hire some long-term workers from the village to help?"

The main reason is that there are too many sweet potatoes harvested this year, and there are only [-] to [-] workers in the workshop, which is really too busy.

Li Mingzhi frowned and said, "Hire outsiders? What if the recipe for making vermicelli leaks out?"

Once this recipe is leaked out, Fu Sheng Ji's vermicelli will be worthless, but if it is a trick, the workshop will not be able to grow if only its own workers are used.

Li Mingyue suddenly asked: "Father, how many sweet potatoes are left in the warehouse?"

"There are still about [-] catties of sweet potatoes left, and the rest are made into sweet potato flour according to what you said."

Li Mingyue thought for a while, and then said: "The [-] catties of sweet potatoes will be stored in the warehouse first, and saved for planting next year. The workshop will start making vermicelli tomorrow, and hire [-] to [-] strong laborers from the village. The manpower is almost the same. .

As for the leak, it shouldn't be a big problem. They don't know how sweet potatoes are made into sweet potato flour.Also, alum needs to be added when beating the pulp. Let our own workers do this step, and don't let them know. "

Keeping these two most important steps, it may not be easy for others to copy vermicelli.

Li Shou nodded, "Well, that's a good idea, so it's settled. Dalang, you're going to find someone tomorrow, and you still need to find someone with good character. If you're not sure, go to your Aunt Zhou for advice. "

Li Mingzhi replied: "Understood, Dad."

Now the workshop is gradually on track, mainly Li Shou and Li Mingzhi are in charge, Li Mingyue has basically retreated to the second line, just occasionally helping them with ideas.
