After Old Man Yun finished speaking in a loud voice, curious people gathered around him. Some people who didn't know what was going on in the distance, seeing so many people here, also curiously came over to watch the excitement.
Yunyi obediently placed the bag on the ground. After opening it, there was an old man who was closest to the bag. He went over excitedly and reached out to grab a handful of seeds.
"This, this, this old guy has never seen such good grain in most of his life."
After speaking, he took one and put it into his mouth. After biting the seed with his teeth, the fragrance of wheat came from the old man's mouth. The excited old man's tears fell from his eyes and fell down his cheeks.
"Oh, Old Man Xu, look at your potential, why are my seeds also capable of causing tears?" Old Man Yun, feeling sour in his heart, pretended to be joking and laughed at the old man.
In fact, Old Man Yun knew in his heart that the old man was so excited that he even shed tears. For people like Old Man Xu who had experienced drought and fled from famine, food was as important as life. His own youngest son and wife both lost their lives while fleeing from famine.
, so I am still so excited.
"Hey, uncle, don't look at it yourself, let us see it too."
"Yes, yes, please turn around quickly and let us all take a look." A group of more than 20 young and old men all stretched their necks. They also wanted to see, but who told Old Man Yun and
The two sons happened to be blocking the left and right sides, and the only opening was tightly blocked by the old man Xu.
When Old Man Xu heard what was said behind him, he quickly wiped his tears with his sleeves. He couldn't be embarrassed in front of these juniors. After wiping, he turned around and showed the seeds in his hands to everyone.
"Wow, these seeds are bigger than mine. It looks like good seeds at first glance."
"This kind of seed is really plump, much better than the shriveled seeds I have at home."
"That's right, I want to change the seeds for my family."
"Uncle Yun, do you have any extra grain at home? Can I buy some? How much is it worth?"
"Yes, yes, we also buy some."
Old Man Yun looked a little embarrassed, but he was still relieved. Otherwise, no one would want to change the plan he spent so long on, and his efforts would have been in vain.
Fortunately, my granddaughter's seeds after "casting a spell" conquered these people all at once. Will she not be able to plant them?
Old Yun is not worried at all. She has a "little fairy" in her family. If she really can't breed it, then there is still Yunxi. If the "immortal technique" is used, the food will not grow. Of course, this is only the last thing Old Yun has.
Bad plan, after all, the quality of the seeds is here, how could it not be planted?
Old Man Yun had so many thoughts in his mind, but he was stunned for a while, still looking very embarrassed, and then he pretended to be reluctant and said:
"Everyone knows that it is very difficult to get this kind of seeds, and there are not many at home. I can spread out the seeds in about an acre of land for everyone. When the harvest comes next year, you can replace them with the grain seeds harvested at home, so that everyone can take a look.
With this grain yield, we can also spend less money, what do you think?"
"No problem, Brother Yun, you are so kind~"
"Yes, yes, Uncle Yun is kind-hearted."
"Uncle Yun and his family are all good people."
"The Yun family is really kind and kind."
There were some people who were hesitant at first, and because of Old Man Yun's suggestion, they planned to discuss with their elders in the family to buy an acre of grain seeds. From what I saw, not everyone was as excited as the old man, who knew this kind of thing.
Good.
"But, let me make one thing clear in advance. My nephew collected this batch of grain seeds from those people at a high price, because the first generation of grain seeds will be best for mass production in the next year after they are planted.
The grain seeds of the second generation are not as productive as the grain seeds of the first generation, and because of this, there are not many grain seeds of the first generation.
This batch of seeds was accidentally bred by an old farmer in that village. Not only wheat but also corn was cultivated. The old farmer has passed away. No one knows how to cultivate these first-generation seeds, so that village
It has not been reported to the government, otherwise our Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty would definitely plant such good seeds widely if he knew about it."
"Although the second generation is not as large as the first generation, it will not be less than our current grain yield. If you have this intention, you can go home and think about it. If you have ideas, you can come to my house to exchange. I won't charge you more.
The price is high, and everyone can exchange domestic grain seeds and money for it."
After hearing what Old Man Yun said, many people were whispering to those around them. Finally, it was Old Man Xu who said: "Okay, let's leave it like this for now. Everyone is busy farming, think about it for yourselves, and don't crowd around here."
, I can make decisions about my family. I want an acre of wheat seeds first. Brother, look at the money..."
Old Man Xu is a veteran who has been farming all his life. You can tell if the grain seeds are good by touching them. Even if the output is small in the future, it will probably not be much less. Besides, it seems that the Yun family plans to use this grain seeds for farming, and
There are not many seeds, so start quickly before everyone reacts.
"Well, the seeds I bought cost one hundred and fifty cents per dou (about twelve kilograms). The price of seeds here is between seventy and one hundred cents. I don't charge more money from the folks. Let's do it.
You only need about four kilograms of grain per acre, so thirty cents of silver and two kilograms of your own grain can be exchanged for four kilograms of new grain here."
When many people heard this price, they understood that the Yun family had not made any money of their own. Some discerning people immediately ordered their sons to go home and get the money. They had all the grain and seeds around them. Within a short time, five or six families came.
For exchange, the bag of grain seeds that Yun Yi carried on his back was exchanged in half. Fortunately, he left one acre of seeds on his own land, otherwise they would have been in vain this morning. As for those who want to exchange, let them go in the evening.
Change at home.
Just like this, Old Man Yun walked towards his field with his two sons. The dispersed crowd continued to talk in groups of twos and threes. In one morning, at least fifty families in Yunjia Village knew that the Yunjia had high-yielding seeds.
.
The village chief also learned about this from the villagers. He took his eldest son to Yun's house without even having lunch. As soon as Old Yun arrived home, he saw the village chief coming and quickly used a face-washing handkerchief.
I wiped my face, threw it into the basin and walked over.
"Brother, I heard from the villagers that you got some high-yielding grain seeds from your sister-in-law's family. Is this true?" The village chief asked quickly before he even came up to him.
"Let's go to the main room first. I'll ask my second brother to bring the seeds, and you'll know after you take a look." Old Yun did not answer the village chief's words, but first led the village chief and his son into the main room.
"Boss, wife, wash some fruits for your village chief uncle and brothers to quench their thirst." Seeing that her old man had something to say, Mrs. Zhao quickly ordered Li Wanrou next to her.
"Hey, mother, I'll go right away." After saying that, he quickly went to the kitchen to get a small basket of pears that Da Ya Er Ya had gone to the mountain to pick before. After washing them, he sent them to the village chief.
In the main room, Yunyi brought the grain seeds over and showed them to the village chief. The village chief was also a veteran in farming. He knew at a glance that these seeds were good. Let’s not talk about whether the yield would be increased or not. At least this kind of seeds came out.
The food will not be as dry as they are now.
The village chief was very excited: "Brother, do you have many of these in your family? Can you give me some?"
"Boss, go get some of each seed for your uncle."
"Hey, Dad, I'm going right away."
After listening to his father's words, Yunyi went to the warehouse to get the seeds. Yunxi "cast spells" a lot on these seeds. At that time, Yunyi and Mrs. Zhao went to the town to get a basket of seeds from Uncle Zhao's house, just to attract people's attention.
, more seeds are in the warehouse, but only ten dou of each type of grain (approximately equivalent to 120 kilograms now). I have exchanged several seeds before, and now I still have 100 kilograms of wheat seeds, and other seeds have not been exchanged yet.
Yunyi brought four kilograms of each kind of seeds and put them on the table in the main room. The village chief quickly stepped forward, looked at each bag one by one, and finally said tremblingly: "Okay, okay, okay, if this kind of seed is really
As my eldest brother said, from now on we, the people of Yunjia Village, will at least not be hungry anymore."
One stone in the article is equivalent to about 100 pounds today. I searched a lot of related knowledge on Du Niang. Because there are no prices for ancient seeds on the Internet, the price of seeds is calculated based on the price of grain in the late Ming Dynasty. Everyone can just take a look.
