Easy to farm

Chapter 182
The Pei family has been troubled recently, and Pei Xiangxiang also has a headache looking at it, but no matter how others toss, Pei Xiangxiang can't delay the business, so he simply ignores these things and concentrates on researching the portable farm so as to make more money.

After staying in the farm for a long time, I made new discoveries.

Originally, Pei Xiangxiang also thought that the farm was the same as the games she played before. As the level increases, the area of ​​the farm will expand, and then the growth cycle of the plants will shrink, but soon she discovered that the farm has another wonderful place, That is, for all the fruits and vegetables transplanted from the farm, the seeds produced will not take root and germinate, unless they are planted in the portable farm, or the seeds are brought out directly on the farm.

After making new discoveries, Pei Xiangxiang plans to take advantage of this advantage and start selling seeds and seedlings vigorously. Although he has sold a lot of seeds before, it has not become a success after all. Now tomatoes and peppers are selling very well. It is convenient to transport, so the market has not been opened, and the sales volume is much lower. Therefore, Pei Xiangxiang plans to start with tomatoes and peppers.

Autumn has already entered, the fields have been harvested, the farming work is over, and after the farmers have trimmed the fields, at this time before, basically every household’s labor force began to go out to find work, if not to go to the city to see where there is a need for short-term work Yes, it was to enter the mountains and start cutting trees, but this year is different from previous years, because Pei Xiangxiang recruited almost a hundred laborers near Nanhe Village, regardless of gender, and planned to let them collect seeds.

The source of the seeds is not only the portable farm, but also the unpicked peppers and tomatoes in the Su family's field. As for the strawberries, they have been off the market for a long time, but they just happen to be planted and the seedlings are planted.

The most indispensable thing for a peasant man is strength, even the old woman with white temples and the child with Zongjiao are good peasants. Therefore, as soon as Pei Xiangxiang's recruitment information was released, there was an endless stream of people who came to sign up. This is not a small battle. It made both Yang Shi and Pei Yongping murmur in their hearts, but Yang Shi didn't ask why, and Pei Yongping knew that Pei Xiangxiang was still angry with him, so he didn't dare to ask, but even so, Yang Shi and Pei Yongping stood beside him in a very tacit understanding Do Pei Xiangxiang a favor and call for the interview.

In terms of picking people, Pei Xiangxiang gave priority to picking some teenagers and some women, but those men with strong strength, she recruited only a dozen or so. Everyone was even more puzzled by this. Pick women and children who have little strength.

Faced with everyone's questions, Pei Xiangxiang smiled and did not answer. Cutting peppers and cutting tomatoes does not require much effort, but taking the seeds inside requires enough patience and care. Peasant men are not as careful as women and children, and strong men It is not difficult to find a job, but it is not easy for women and children to find a job. Therefore, after a little consideration, Pei Xiangxiang chose to give priority to women and children in their teens.

Pei Xiangxiang wrote to the capital, telling Su Yunhan that peppers and tomatoes were off the market, and Su Yunhan also reported to the palace that he would no longer transport peppers and tomatoes from Qingyang Town to Beijing. Tomatoes became the source of seeds that Pei Xiangxiang collected this time.

Such a large-scale move is only for seeds. This is why Pei Xiangxiang believes that next year's market will be several times larger than this year's. It is not surprising that she is so confident about it. The sales in the capital are very good, and the kitchens of rich and powerful families have never run out of these.

Moreover, those long-term workers who planted tomatoes and peppers that Pei Xiangxiang helped cultivate before have returned to the capital now, and plan to plant these in the capital next year. If it flows into other counties, the market for peppers and tomatoes will become bigger and bigger. With the capital as the center, it will gradually affect the surroundings, and finally spread throughout the Sheng Dynasty.

Although it is no longer the season for growing peppers and tomatoes, about three to four thousand catties of peppers and one or two thousand catties of tomatoes have been picked from dozens of acres of land. The pepper trees and tomato trees are all pulled out and put in the ground to dry The peppers and tomatoes were all picked by the strong men and piled aside for seeding.

Because the peppers were a bit suffocating, Pei Xiangxiang assigned this work to the women, and no one distributed a homemade mask, and the younger ones went to get tomato seeds.

Wash the peppers and tomatoes before picking seeds, and then pile the peppers with seeds into a clean wooden barrel. Pei Xiangxiang plans to make chopped peppers directly at that time. As for the tomatoes, Pei Xiangxiang doesn’t want to throw them away directly, so let everyone put After the tomatoes are cut, they are put in a pot, and the surrounding people come to eat for free. Firstly, there is no food waste, and secondly, it allows the surrounding people to taste the taste of the tomatoes, and maybe they can become customers in the future.

Pei Xiangxiang thought very comprehensively, because he said that the cut tomatoes were free to eat, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going from Zhuangzi all of a sudden. Pei Xiangxiang was very happy watching this scene.

Pei Xiangxiang was very busy here, and she wanted to put aside the Pei family's housework and not interfere, but there were many things that she could not do without her meddling, so when Mrs. Zhu and Pei Zhenglian appeared together in Pei Xiangxiang's new residence, Pei Xiangxiang could not help He couldn't help holding his forehead, sighed silently, thinking about what kind of evil he had done, and why he met a grandma like Mrs. Zhu.

As soon as he entered the door, Mrs. Zhu said directly to Pei Xiangxiang, "Xiangxiang, your uncle has been in prison for almost ten years, so Miss Su hasn't heard back yet?"

Naturally, Pei Xiangxiang didn't believe that Mrs. Zhu came this time just to ask if Su Minzhi had replied to her letter, otherwise, how could he have called Pei Zhenglian along.

Although guessing that Zhu's visit this time has another purpose, Pei Xiangxiang didn't intend to expose it, and replied, "Grandma, the capital is far away from Qingyang Town, not to mention that the trip will be delayed due to strong wind and heavy rain, so come here as soon as possible." It will take more than 20 days to go, and if there is a slight delay, you will have to wait for a month."

Pei Xiangxiang did write to Su Minzhi, but it was not to ask her for help to release Zhao Gang, but to explain to her why the jewelry appeared in Zhao Gang's hands. Pei Xiangxiang was also afraid that Su Minzhi would misunderstand, after all, it was something she had used, and it suddenly appeared to her. If any gossip spreads about a grown man, it will be very unfavorable to Su Minzhi.

As for Zhao Gang being wronged and sent to prison, Pei Xiangxiang also intentionally made him suffer some crimes, not for anything else but his character.
