Lao Zhou lit up his cigarette, took a few puffs and called Zhou Dalang, "You and your second uncle will go to your uncle's house overnight. Well, don't let your second and third uncles know about it yet. I'll just ask your uncle.
How is the wheat harvest this spring? In fact, we should go there two days ago."
Old Zhoutou muttered something and then said: "If you ask clearly, if the seeds are there, just tell him quietly. Tomorrow morning, pick the best wheat and send it to you. Don't send too much, one person."
Just pick up a load."
"Then the second and third uncles..."
"Let your uncle go, he knows what to do." Old Zhoutou said: "You have to go into the village before dawn, and try not to let people in the village see it. If you see it, it won't matter. Just say that your mother is fine.
Now, your uncles are coming to visit our house..."
Zhou Dalang nodded.
Old Zhoutou said: "Remember, the wheat you bring must be good. I have agreed with your uncle that this is what Mr. Bai of our village uses to make seeds. If it is not good, it will be our old Zhou family who will be smashed later."
My face. Second brother, go and watch more closely."
Zhou Dalang and Tuesday Lang nodded together.
After taking a puff of cigarette, Lao Zhoutou said: "I'm not worried about your eldest and second uncles, but your third uncle is hissing..."
Lao Zhoutou felt that his waist was turning green.
Qian took her hand back from his waist, and Lao Zhou didn't dare to speak ill of his brother-in-law anymore. He coughed lightly and waved his hand: "Okay, let's go."
Xiao Qian immediately went into the kitchen to prepare torches for the two brothers. This was directly related to her parents' family. The torch she made was fast and strong.
Ms. Feng followed her to help, feeling extremely envious. Her parents' home was quite far away, and she usually only went back to visit during the Chinese New Year and Double Ninth Festival.
She took a careful look outside and asked Xiao Qian in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, what do you think if my parents come in exchange for food..."
Xiao Qian lowered his voice and said with a smile: "Don't worry, mother has already prepared it. Your eldest brother and I have put three sacks of wheat in the room, but they are all in circles."
Feng's eyes lit up and her hands moved faster. She lowered her voice and said, "Then I will go back to my parents' home in a few days."
He and Fang were holding their children and it was difficult to go in and help, but their hearts were moved.
When they changed wheat seeds last year, they also didn't expect that this wheat seed would be so good, so although they told their families, they didn't actually come over to change it.
The reason for the He family is that they are quite far apart, while for the Fang family, it is because they have just gotten married and the two families are not that close yet.
Moreover, the Fang family, like the He family and the Feng family, felt that the old Zhou family was trying to be polite, and no one would carry a big bag of wheat seeds to exchange for it.
If you want to exchange wheat seeds, it is best to give a pound or two as a gift when visiting relatives. It is best to try planting in the corner of the wheat field.
The second, third, and fourth daughters-in-law of the Zhou family were also very regretful. They didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but who knew they would be so slow.
At this time, not many people in the village had lights on, and everyone began to wash up and go to sleep.
Zhou Dalang and Zhou Erlang took the torch and went out to Qianjia Village.
It is much farther from Qili Village to Qianjia Village than to Dali Village. It takes at least half an hour to walk at night.
Lao Zhou waited until his two sons went out before looking at Man Bao and asked, "Man Bao, is this okay?"
Man Bao: "...Dad, isn't it too late for you to ask me after you've called the eldest and second brothers out?"
Lao Zhou was a little embarrassed. He pressed her head and said, "Dad, don't you want to confirm with you?"
Man Bao said: "Don't worry, dad, as long as the seeds are fine."
Lao Zhoutou was still a little worried, "Will Mr. Bai use up all these seeds? Don't let him see too many of them in the end and stop them."
"No way, he doesn't just use it for himself, he also sells it for takeout, so don't worry, as long as the seeds are good, he will harvest as much as you can." Man Bao said: "As long as it is new wheat seed, if not
, in the end it was our family’s reputation that was damaged.”
Lao Zhoutou is not worried that his brother-in-law will cheat. Ahem, strictly speaking, even if he cheats, his brother-in-law will not cheat.
Of course, Lao Zhoutou said that this was an inappropriate metaphor.
After getting a positive reply from his daughter, Lao Zhou started chatting leisurely, "Mr. Bai wants to take out some more food. The price is sky-high. How much will he have to sell for it?"
"I guess it's one hundred and eighty cents," Man Bao said, "This is the price Shan Bao and I set at the beginning."
Lao Zhoutou gave her a thumbs up and said cheerfully: "You guys really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. You really dare to ask for any price."
Old Zhou asked with a smile, "One hundred and eighty yuan, who is selling it?"
At this time, Mrs. Bai was also asking Master Bai this question.
She had only just learned about the business of her husband and three children from her son. Her first instinct was that the master was using the family's money to amuse the three children.
Because one hundred and fifty cents per bushel of wheat seemed to her to be a sky-high price.
As a result, Mr. Bai said that the price was actually cheap.
Mr. Bai smiled and said: "Yizhou is at a time when everything is waiting to be revitalized, especially this year and next, so there is no shortage of places to go for the wheat seeds I have."
"How much can it be sold for? Is it really like what they set, one hundred and eighty cents per dou?"
Mr. Bai smiled and said: "The three children are still a little timid. This price is a bit low."
Mrs. Bai couldn't help but exclaimed, "Is this price still low?"
Mr. Bai nodded, lay down on the pillow, and said contentedly: "I plan to sell it to Wu Fang for two hundred coins per dou. As for how much Wu Fang will sell it for, that is his business."
Mrs. Bai:...Okay, now she believes it. The three children are still a little timid.
Mrs. Bai couldn't help but said: "Didn't you say that these wheat seeds have not been planted in other places, and you don't know whether they are suitable for the soil and water? Just sell them like this..."
"Isn't wheat seed transported from this place to that place? Whether it can be suitable for the local soil and water, that is something that people who buy seeds should consider. We only need to ensure that our seeds are new wheat seeds and that they are grown in Qili Village
Just have a good harvest." Mr. Bai said: "As for other problems, you have to take care of them yourself."
"Everything in this world requires a certain amount of risk. Just look at the big or the small." Mr. Bai said with a smile: "Look at the three children and their aunt who bought wheat on credit and came back to exchange for wheat seeds. You thought they didn't take risks.
?”
He smiled and said: "The risks they took are nothing in the eyes of us adults, but they are too big at their age. They are lucky, the wheat seeds are really good, otherwise they would have smashed all the wheat."
In hand."
Mrs. Bai smiled and said: "Can I still throw the food into my hands? Just sell it."
