Chapter 433 Wheat Seeds

The second update is to read the full text of pink.

***………………****

When I heard people say "punishment", "parents", "old parents", Lian Man'er didn't feel slowing down and looked at it as he spoke. He saw two people sitting next to a table in the tea stall, both in their thirties and forties. The person who was talking looked like a hilarious person who was wandering around in the street market.

In this era, it is said that parents are officials, and the magistrate is usually called the old parents and the county magistrate is called the parents.

According to Mr. Lian, the county magistrate Lian Shouren is just in charge of counting military households, and the other is to handle the unpleasant errands assigned to him by the magistrate. Hearing this person, Lian Shouren is in charge of the criminal prison in this county?!

"When did this happen?" asked the man dressed in surprise, "Didn't it mean that our parents can't stand up?"

"Thirty years from Hedong, thirty years from Hexi. That's the past. You don't know that yesterday we held a happy event in our county town?"

As the idle said this, he approached the scholar and lowered his voice and said something. The two people all showed strange looks on their faces and they started to laugh.

"...a tree of pear blossoms pressed against the crabapple..." The scholar looked strange and authentic.

Lian Man'er was full of suspicion when she heard this, and she couldn't stand there and didn't leave, so she wanted to go to the tea stall to continue listening.

But Goro disagreed, and with a stern face, he pulled Lian Man'er and walked forward.

Lian Man'er realized it later. He thought that Goro must have heard the two people talking, especially the sentence "Pear Blossoms against Begonia". This sentence can be regarded as a "sexy poem". Goro is a pure boy, so he is afraid he is not interested in it. In Goro's eyes, those two people should be the image of a vulgar man.

Of course, Goro refused to let Lian Man'er go to the tea stall to have tea, for fear that the conversation between the two vulgar men would dirty his sister's ears.

If you don't listen, just don't listen. If something really happens, it has already happened. Even if she hears something now, it will be useless.

Although the gossip was not satisfied, Lian Man'er felt relieved and was still shopping happily.

Taicang County is a cotton-producing area. Zhang visited two shops and saw that the cotton here was good and the one sold was cheaper than that in Qingyang Town. He couldn't move.

This year, there are all cotton coats of all sizes. Then next year, the year after that? If you buy cotton, it won’t break even if you put them there. Once you have a cotton coat, you should change the cotton mattress and add some new ones. In addition, there is also a dowry for Lianzhier.

"...The clothes and cotton coats of all seasons must be available. You can prepare a few more sets of bedding, and you have to use cotton..." Zhang said to himself.

Generally, four shops and four covers should be paid attention to in the dowry of a married daughter.

"Mom. Didn't my father ask us to bring the money for my sister's dowry? This cotton is cheaper than what we sell, so let's buy it." Lian Man'er said.

This was just about Zhang's heart.

"Okay, then let's buy it." Zhang said with a smile.

My mother and sister discussed and bought ten kilograms of high-quality cotton wool. This kind of cotton wool is a good one, one cotton cover per kilogram, that is, a cotton ball. Then there is a good quilt cover and a mattress cover. This kind of cotton wool is a standard quilt and cotton mattress size. At that time, you only need to sew a yarn lining cloth on it, and then sew the mattress surface and quilt surface.

The thickness and weight of this quilt cover and mattress cover are different.

Zhang chose six thin quilt covers of two kilograms, six medium-thick quilt covers of six kilograms, and six thick quilt covers of eight kilograms, and ten quilt covers of two kilograms and eight kilograms of four kilograms.

The cotton thing takes up space, even with Saburo's help, it's very difficult for them to carry it. And they have to take the cotton wool. They can't go shopping anymore.

The shopkeeper was very eye-catching and asked where all these things were delivered. Lian Man'er and the others bought so many of them. They were considered big customers, and the shop's staff was responsible for delivering goods to their doorsteps.

"Dongcheng Lao Wang's car shop, room 8th," Lian Man'er reported the room number of the car shop where Zheng Bingwu lived, "Shopkeeper, we bought a lot of them, so give us a discount."

Lian Man'er used to selling prices.

"This is an old guest from Liaodong, right?" the shopkeeper said with a smile.

"How do you know that?" Xiaoqi asked.

"As soon as you enter the door, I can hear the accent of this speech. I'm not sure yet. As soon as you talk about the old Wang family's cart shop, the eighth room, I'm sure." The shopkeeper smiled, "The old customers from Liaodong all live in the old Wang family's cart shop. The room number 8 is specially prepared for regular customers in Liaodong. You are here with the Lao Zheng family."

Although it is not the era of information, the speed of this gossip spread is not inferior at all.

"Your shop and Lao Wang's car shop are not the same owner, right?" Lian Man'er asked.

"It's not a boss, but it's almost the same. Our boss is a friend. Laoke from Liaodong came to Taicang and stayed at Lao Wang's cart shop. If you want to buy cotton, it's my old Deji store." The shopkeeper said, "Don't worry, you can get this thing later. The price will be based on the regular customer price of Liaodong Laoke's, and you will get a discount of 10,500 yuan. Buying hundreds or thousands of pounds is also the same discount. It's not to make money, it's just to make friends."

Lian Man'er left half of the payment for the goods and agreed to deliver the goods to the Lao Wang family car shop later and then pay the remaining payment.

After buying cotton, the whole family walked forward with a stroll. Seeing that there was a grain store in front of them, they couldn't buy rice here, but Lian Man'er wanted to know the price of rice here, so she walked in.

The prices of millet, big yellow rice, small yellow rice, peanuts, beans, and rice are basically the same as those in Qingyang Town, but the prices of white flour are different.

Some of the white flour here cost 7 cents per pound, some cost 8 cents per pound, and of course there are also 9 cents per pound.

Lian Man'er compared several types of white flour and immediately realized the reason.

The white flour of nine cents per kilogram is finely ground, and the flour is whiter and finer. The ones of eight cents and seven cents per kilogram are coarse and darker. This is coarsely ground, coarsely sieved wheat flour.

There is only one kind of finely ground white flour in the grain shop in Jinyang Town. Because Jinyang Town, even Qingyang County and Liaodong Prefecture do not grow wheat, the finely ground white flour is transported from the south, so naturally the finely ground white flour has a greater profit.

But Taicang County is planted with wheat.

Lian Man'er looked at the coarse wheat flour in her hand and made a plan.

"Mom, brother, Xiaoqi, why don't we buy some wheat seeds and let's try planting wheat when we go back?" Lian Man'er discussed with the family.

"Can we grow wheat? No one has ever planted it." Zhang said.

"It's just four hundred miles apart. Look at the past two days we've been here, the climate here is not much different from ours." Lian Man'er said, "I think it should be able to plant it."

Lian Man'er has lived in Sanshiliyingzi for a year. According to her, the climate of Sanshiliyingzi all year round is similar to that of the Northeast in the previous life. Wheat can be grown in the Northeast in the previous life.

"I agree to give it a try." Goro said, "No one has planted corn before. If we plant it, the harvest will be good. And that sweet potato is still brought in from the southern vassal states. Fuzhou Prefecture in the south can be planted, and if we plant it, we will still do it. We are closer to Taicang County. If we can plant it in Taicang County, we should be able to plant it."

"Well, I agree too." Xiaoqi pursed her lips and nodded, and two small dimples suddenly appeared on her chubby cheeks.

If you plant wheat at home, it doesn’t mean you don’t have to buy white flour, and you can eat it by yourself. Just thinking about this, Xiao Qi has to raise his hands and feet to support planting wheat.

Three to one, Lian Man'er, Goro and Xiaoqi looked at Zhang together.

"Then let's try." Zhang also nodded.

Oh, too, passed unanimously.

Wheat is divided into winter wheat and spring wheat. Winter wheat needs to be sown in autumn and has a long growth period. Spring wheat is sown in spring and has a short growth period and can be harvested in summer.

It is too late to plant winter wheat this year, but it is too late to plant spring wheat next spring.

The yield of spring wheat is not high, but after harvesting in summer, as long as there is enough manure, you can plant another crop, such as soybeans, or just plant cabbage.

For Lianman'er, who has solved the problem of food and clothing and has enough land, introducing spring wheat to enrich and improve the dietary structure will not affect livelihoods. Moreover, instead of buying fine white flour shipped from the south at a high price and growing wheat noodles by yourself, it is more economical and safe and secure. Compared with the detailed comparison, this can save a lot of money.

If it succeeds, in addition to eating and using it at home, you can also sell part of it. Grind it into coarse wheat flour and sell it, which will definitely be very popular.

Lian Man'er asked the shopkeeper of the grain shop which type of local wheat noodles he sold.

"There are both." The shopkeeper told Lian Man'er.

Lian Man'er asked where there were people selling wheat seeds before she came out of the grain store. The shop selling wheat seeds was diagonally opposite the grain store. In addition to wheat seeds, there were other types of crop seeds and vegetable seeds.

Lian Man'er bought fifty kilograms of spring wheat seeds. During this period, Goro had carefully asked the shop's shop for details of spring wheat planting. Xiaoqi was also beside him, silently helping to remember.

Lian Man'er had other plans in her mind. She remembered that the carpenter master who taught Lian Shuxing's etiquette was from Hejian Mansion, and she planted wheat at home. When she bought the wheat seeds, she gave it to Lian Shuxing. In the field, Lian Shuxing can always understand all the work, so she didn't need to worry too much.

The wheat seeds were also discussed with the shopkeeper and sent directly to the Lao Wang family cart shop.

Cotton is produced in Taicang, and the price of cotton cloth is also cheaper than that of Jinyang County.

Not only Zhang, but even Man'er could not hold his own wallet when he looked at the thick, thin, true colors, and printed and dyed cotton cloth.
