Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

  Chapter 50 Sweet pastry

   When Xu Shiyan and his party returned to the village, it was already past six o'clock, it was already dark, and there were not many people outside, which saved a lot of trouble.

   When everyone found out that Xu Shiyan and the others had returned, it was already the next morning.

   "Oh, isn't this Brother Shi Yan? When did you come back? Why is it so quiet and there is no movement?"

   "Isn't it a big deal? I heard that you met a mallet on the mountain? How big is it? Let us see it too, and keep our eyes open."

   "Surely it can sell for a lot of money, right? Oh, it's really greedy. Why don't you think I'm so lucky?"

   "Isn't it? Let's not talk about anything else. Ever since the three brothers of the Xu family got married, their luck is unstoppable. Good things happen everywhere."

  Ordinary agricultural teams are not so busy after the autumn harvest. At most, they collect grain, beat beans, and peel corn.

  But the production team for planting ginseng is different. Every autumn is the busiest time for ginseng.

   Digging the soil, pouring the soil, raising ginseng seeds, and planting ginseng, I have to be busy until the snow falls.

  The ginseng production team of Dongjiangyan Brigade has returned this year, and the ginseng factory is also intensively processing, but there is still a lot of work on the mountain.

  In the morning, everyone gathered in front of the team headquarters, waiting for the captain and secretary to assign tasks.

  When Xu Shiyan and the others appeared, a lot of people gathered around and asked this and that.

   All of a sudden, the vegetable market was in front of the team department, and it was a mess.

   "The club was sold in Fusong yesterday, and the family split two hundred yuan." Yang Chunming hurriedly opened his mouth when he saw this situation.

   This was on the way back yesterday, the five people discussed it, and when they came back, they said that each of them would share 200, so as not to let others know that they were jealous.

  The five of them also told their family members not to go out and talk nonsense.

   Two hundred yuan is not enough to make people jealous, and everyone mentions it with envy.

  If other people know that each family has divided more than 500 yuan, they don't know what will happen.

  This is also the reason why some of them didn't even go back to the village, but went straight down the mountain to sell ginseng.

   I just don’t want outsiders to know the size of the ginseng, and I can’t estimate how much they can get, so as not to cause trouble.

   Living at home, it is better to be low-key, because it is too high-key to make people jealous.

  Other families are still living hard, but your family suddenly has five or six hundred more?

   Don't say anything else, come to the door to ask you to borrow one hundred and eighty, will you borrow it?

   "What? Only sold for a thousand dollars? Can't you?

   I heard our second child come back and say, isn’t it Liupiye? That shouldn't be small, why did you sell it for so much money? "

   "Yes, I also heard that the ginseng tree is quite thick, and the exposed shoulders are thicker than a thumb. Why can't it be sold for a thousand dollars?"

  Some people seemed unwilling to believe it. After all, dozens of people were working on the mountain at that time, and they all rushed over to join in the fun.

  A tree with six leaves costs 1,000 yuan, which is really not much.

   "It's not the same. If it grows on the ground, the six leaves may be quite big. Don't forget that it grows on a tree stump.

   Besides, the shape of the ginseng tree is not good, it is too short, and the shoulders and head look thick, but in fact it does not have much weight, just three or two. "

   Before Xu Shiyan could speak, Zhao Jianshe spoke.

   This explanation is reasonable, anyway, no one has ever seen a mallet growing on a tree stump.

   "One thousand yuan is not a lot. We worked hard from spring to autumn. How much money can we have left in a year?"

   "That's reasonable, two hundred yuan is not a lot. What else do you want?

   Going into the mountains to pick up mushrooms and meeting a mallet, it’s all like a dream, money picked for nothing. "

  Even if it is two hundred, many people are envious.

   "Brother Shiyan, go further into the mountains, no matter what you do, you take your brother with you."

  Someone patted Xu Shiyan on the shoulder with a flattering expression.

   "Brother can see it, you have been married since you were married, and you are very lucky.

  Brother, you married a good wife, Wangfu. "

  Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, and Xu Shiyan also laughed.

  Since rebirth, luck has improved a lot, Xu Shiyan can't understand this.

  Could it be that it was too unlucky in the previous life, bottomed out and rebounded, bringing all the good luck to this life?

  While everyone was chatting and laughing, Zhao Dahai and several other cadres came over and assigned everyone today's work.

  There are still some things to finish in the field, and there are still some grains in the village that have not been threshed.

  Then there is still a lot of soil that has been harvested for this year's new ginseng land. Next, we have to mix loess, pour soil, etc. Anyway, there is a lot of work to do.

  Xu Shiyan and other young people were all sent to the mountains to fight the soil.

  The land used to grow ginseng is not the same as the field, but forest land.

  For the forest land felled in the previous year, in the summer of the second year, the shrubs and weeds on it should be cleared and hung on the strings.

   Then use a pickaxe to dig out the soil, take the turf above it, and dig out a clod of more than one foot square, with the soil layer facing up, and the turf buckled inside.

  After drying the soil for a summer, the soil moisture becomes less, and some bacteria and insect eggs are also killed.

  In autumn, use four teeth to beat the turf to leave the soil, pick out the grass roots and branches and burn them. This process is to beat the soil.

  The work of participating in the field is not easy, and the work points are relatively high. The big guys are robbing, and they are all young, strong and good at work.

  If it had been in the past, Xu Shiyan would never have been able to go up the mountain to dig the soil, and he would just go to the field to finish up and do some odd jobs.

  It's different now, Xu Shiyan is now a celebrity in the Dongjiangyan Brigade.

  Zhao Dahai is still thinking about making Xu Shiyan a technician next year, so of course he has to arrange a job that earns a high salary.

  So, under the envious eyes of many people, Xu Shiyan went up the mountain to dig the soil to earn high work points with his four-toothed son on his shoulders.

   Not only that, Xu Shiyan also felt the enthusiasm of everyone on the mountain.

  The one who offered to pass cigarettes, the one who served tea and water during breaks, and the one who helped him carry tools when he got off work, all of them wished to serve Xu Shiyan like an ancestor.

   "Third Brother, there's nothing wrong with taking a break at noon, otherwise, let's go wandering in the woods?"

   "That's right, third brother, why don't you take us into the mountains."

  Every day after work at noon, Xu Shiyan was surrounded by many people, all coaxing Xu Shiyan, wanting Xu Shiyan to take them into the forest.

   What if you are lucky and meet a ginseng again?

  Xu Shiyan was given a headache by these people. "Brothers, how can it be so easy to meet a stick?"

   What is this called? Why are you hanging around him one by one? Xu Shiyan, who is used to being low-key, really can't adapt to the current situation.

  After lunch that day, Xu Shiyan thought about going into the forest to pick some grapes for Su Anying.

   As a result, he just got up and before he walked out of the arena, a group of people followed behind him.

   "Third Brother, why are you going? Take us with you?"

  Xu Shiyan stared at the sky speechlessly, it was so annoying, this kind of life was too disturbing, he just wanted to live in peace.

   "I just want to pick some grapes for my daughter-in-law. It's nothing else. I'll be back in a while, so I won't delay my work in the afternoon."

   "Oh, it turned out to be for my sister-in-law, third brother, why are you so absent-minded? Let's go, we will help you."

   A group of dog skin plasters, I can't get rid of it.
