Su Yuanyuan set a goal for herself, to earn fifty yuan a day, so that she could save a lot after the autumn harvest, but it would always rain in these two months.
Zhao Yanli came over to play with Su Yuanyuan and saw how busy she was. She felt sorry for her.
"I can't do it. My home is at the foot of a mountain. If there are wolves or wild boars rushing down in the winter, it will be ruined for my small body. I would rather be tired than climb the courtyard wall."
"Yuanyuan, are there really wild boars?"
"Yeah, it's tough."
"I'll help you too."
"No, no, if you have time, please help me ask who has more soil germs. I will definitely not be able to take them off myself. I still have to buy them, and they are indispensable."
"Okay, even the people who help with the work don't have that many idiots. I'll ask you."
"Thank you, Xiaoli."
"Yuanyuan. Your Japanese melons are really beautiful. Mine are all green."
Zhao Yanli is talking about pumpkins. The orange ones are among the green seedlings. Of course they look good.
"Not only does it look good, but people say it's also sweet and delicious. I'll give you two after autumn. You can keep the seeds and plant them next year. But don't plant them with Japanese melons, otherwise they will
Got it."
"I know. And the smallest one the size of a bowl is too cute."
"I'll give you two of whatever you like. Don't look at this melon, but it's the most delicious. You'll know after eating it."
"Okay, I'll help you with the work then. Yuanyuan, why do you get so many Japanese melons?"
"Of course I will feed pigs in the future. If people like to eat, pigs will also like to eat. This can save a lot of food."
"That's right. I'll plant more next year too."
Zhao Yanli stayed for a while and then ran away, mainly because people were working and she felt uncomfortable standing aside.
She was also a little girl working on errands. She found her friends and told them that Su Yuanyuan wanted a lot of soil embryos.
As long as people nowadays can make money, they will not be tired.
From then on, Su Yuanyuan had to take off at least fifty or sixty yuan a day, sometimes up to a hundred yuan when the weather was good.
Anyway, I go outside to collect soil at night and work during the day. If there is not enough space, I put it outside in the field.
The dry ones were collected and piled behind the house.
She wanted a backyard so that she could grow some food in the backyard in the future. With the house blocking the way, it would not be easy to be discovered.
On this day, Hu Chunhua came over and brought half a watermelon to Su Yuanyuan.
"Auntie, why don't you keep it for your sister and the others to eat?"
"My elder brother brought me three watermelons. You can eat them. They are very sweet."
"Auntie, my uncle will help me take a look when he has time. I want to fence the yard in autumn. I don't know how much soil embryo is needed."
"Okay, let him come over tonight."
"Auntie, do you think I can enclose all the wasteland?"
"How much soil will be used? And you have to ask the village chief about this. Although it is your wasteland, I am afraid that someone will not be willing to do it."
"Well, I'll ask in the afternoon. I've already prepared 500 pieces of soil embryos. After autumn, I estimate that I can prepare 2,000 pieces. I'll buy whatever I need. Anyway, I must fence the yard. This way I can prepare it in the winter.
Stay safe."
"Okay, let's go. I'll go and ask you now. Tomorrow, your eldest sister and the other three will also remove the soil embryos for you."
Su Yuanyuan smiled and didn't say anything. Anyway, if she gave herself a soil embryo, she would definitely give her money.
Yang Hongwen listened to Su Yuanyuan's words and shook his head, "It's definitely not possible. But you can enclose an acre of land, and you can't account for any more."
Su Yuanyuan is content with one acre of land. She can take care of it by herself. One acre of land can grow a lot of food.
Moreover, there is half an acre of land in the backyard, which is equivalent to her owning a home with nearly two acres of land. What a luxury! Those who live in villas with a thousand square meters are incomparable to her.
She is inflating herself while working. Anyway, she just thinks and feels whatever makes her happy.
The couple came together in the evening, and Su Yuanyuan said that the backyard would also be enclosed, and there would be an extra acre of land in the front yard.
Yang Minggang roughly measured it with his long stride.
The molds of soil embryos are all standard. So it was quickly calculated that a height of 1.6 meters would require 5,000 soil embryos.
Good guy, five thousand yuan is several tons of soil.
That is to say, she had to buy 3,000 yuan of clay soil, which cost 60 yuan. If the labor was still 50 cents a day, it would take six people three days to build it. The labor cost was nearly 10 yuan.
Su Yuanyuan calculated it. It was still acceptable. This way, she could do something without worrying about being seen by someone who came over unexpectedly.
Su Yuanyuan is now more active in working, thinking that she can work better and spend less money, but she also wants to build a large firewood shed in the yard, where corn stalks and corn cobs must be placed.
of.
This is all for later, we will talk about it when the time comes.
All the half-grown children in the village were taking off soil embryos, and for one dollar and two cents, children could do this work. The adults were busy with the work in the fields, so they left it to the children.
The days flew by and we reached the end of August. It was already the dog days of summer, and it was too hot.
Su Yuanyuan felt uncomfortable in such sultry weather, but it was not unbearable.
It rained twice more, and it was not too light. Su Yuanyuan gained twenty or thirty kilograms every day. It had just rained that day, so she went to the county with a basket on her back.
She still lacked a door, so she thought about going to the county town to ask if there were any second-hand ones, but it would cost less. If she could save money, she would save some.
We went directly to Lao Yang's blacksmith shop. Lao Yang doesn't go to the market anymore, all his apprentices go there in turn.
Su Yuanyuan handed him a pot of fresh shrimps. "Uncle Yang, I got these shrimps this morning, so I marinated them quickly, otherwise they will go bad at noon."
"Okay, girl, what are you doing in the county town?"
"I'm thinking about building up the yard after autumn, but there's still a lack of gates. What kind of gate is more than two meters wide? If I have money in the future, I will buy a little donkey, and I can drive the car into the yard.
"
"Haha, you are quite thoughtful?"
"I have nothing to do all day long. I have thought about it over and over again. Of course I have thought carefully about it."
"Okay, I'll ask you. Even with your clay wall, you don't need a very good gate. I don't know if the gate that Lao Wang's family replaced this year is still there. I'll bring it to you."
"Uncle Yang has to give people money."
Lao Yang waved his hand. "You help get the shrimps out at home, and I'll go out."
There is nothing Lao Yang can't do. He came back half an hour later. "It's already here, so just give him a dollar. That's all. He's not short of money."
Also, you have dinner at home at noon, and when the boss comes back from the market, ask him to drive him back to you."
"Okay, thank you Uncle Yang." Su Yuanyuan felt more at ease now and was waiting for the autumn queen.
