Cart after cart of corn was pulled up, and more than ten people followed, all with only one hand, and they also came to help stack the corn baskets.
The next day Chen Miao brought over half a fan of pork. She wanted to let them eat more good food. You can't just let them work. It won't work if their nutrition can't keep up. After all, they are all in poor health.
There are more and more people on the mountain, and the corn baskets are stacked very quickly.
Thank God, it has been sunny these past few days. That's why I have to pay more attention to organizing, as I am afraid that the weather will change.
The mountain is being tidied up, and we will start removing potatoes tomorrow.
The people doing the work are all outsiders, fifty of them working on the mountain.
It’s not that I don’t believe them, but the less people know, the safer they are.
I listen to the radio every day, so I probably know a little bit about what's going on outside, but I'm afraid they'll spill the beans.
I'm also afraid that with so much food, it would be troublesome if the national army came to besiege us.
Chen Miao looked at it from below. The potatoes that were turned out were also damaged, but not many. The people behind them were sorting them out, and the potato seedlings were thrown directly into the ground. The potatoes were sorted out, and the good ones were put directly into baskets. The men were responsible for carrying them.
Take it out and put it in the cellar.
Although the work is slow, it can be cleaned up quickly.
The women did this kind of work quickly. Later, they even separated out the small potatoes.
The thirty people Xiao Tongran hired were all very capable, and they could run all the way while carrying a large frame. Even so, they couldn't keep up with the speed of potato removal.
The ridge head was too long, so we used a tractor to pull it back, leaving people at the cellar entrance. This made the process much faster.
Improve your life today, just make a stew with today's new potatoes in it.
At noon, everyone said the potatoes were so delicious.
"It's okay. You guys can take some back home after the work is done. Just cut the potatoes into small pieces and plant them in the ground next spring.
This kind of thing can actually be eaten as a dish or as a meal."
Everyone was satisfied with Chen Miao's generosity. It can be said that two out of three meals included meat.
How can anyone be dissatisfied if the work is not tiring and the workers earn money? They all want to perform well and still be able to work in the winter, and there will be a lot of labor required for farming next year.
Chen Miao was quite satisfied with the size and yield of the potatoes. After lunch, she said she wanted to take a rest. After all, she had eaten a lot, so she still had to squat and work for fear of feeling uncomfortable.
It wasn't until dark that Chen Miao was no longer visible, then I drove back, thinking that if I left the day after tomorrow, there shouldn't be any problems here.
The car was still parked at Xiao Tongran's house. The alley at home was too narrow.
"Sister-in-law, the leaders of the county came to see our boss today."
"Does this mean we have harvested in autumn?"
"Well, you didn't tell me, you just told me to come over when our boss comes back."
"Okay, I get it. It just means giving money."
"Sister-in-law, I will take you back and talk as we go."
There is a curfew in the county now, but it is also divided into people.
"Sister-in-law, our boss said we won't give it to them."
"Ahem, I guess not. I might still want to buy food."
We are short of food, and the national army is also short of food.
“If it goes too far, it’s the opposite.”
"When will Mr. Xiao come back?"
"You didn't tell me. This time, Shi Yong had something to do and asked someone to come over and ask our boss to come over."
Chen Miao nodded. It seemed that he couldn't leave yet. He had to wait for Xiao Tongran to come back. In fact, it would be okay if he did the opposite.
There may not be enough manpower, and the national army has lost a lot of ground here. The top generals have already left here.
After returning home, she waited until the two children fell asleep before looking for Xiao Tongran.
They were drinking, there were more than ten people, it seemed like it was a party.
I didn't hear any news that was useful to me, so I just came back, and it didn't take more than a few days.
Tao Juncheng took twice as much penicillin this time as he did last time, and he had already kept it at home. It was safe now and he still had time.
I went to see Shen Jianfeng. They were on the march now. I originally thought that if he had time, they could go and see Yun Shan and Yun Xin together.
Now that the two children are older, they know what their father means and want to meet him, but this is never the right opportunity.
If I am not mistaken, the war will be even more cruel at the end of this year. In fact, the outcome of this battle is very crucial.
After looking at their supplies, there was really not much food.
After thinking about it, she put two thousand kilograms of cornmeal in front of them. This kind of cornmeal was also her inventory in the previous life, and it was all fine.
Shen Jianfeng got the news that there was food ahead. He has now fully accepted the surprise. He is not worried about the harm the food will cause, knowing that it is helping him.
In fact, he had thought about countless possibilities. This time it was even more obvious that he was short of food. He didn't expect that the food would arrive.
It was really God's kindness to me. I muttered in my mouth that these two thousand kilograms of food could only last for five days at most.
Chen Miaoxin said she would give it to you in four days. Now that we are in a hurry, it would not be good to give too much. Next time, just mix white flour and cornmeal and give it to you.
The food I have is really not enough to do anything. Next time I go to Russia, I will try to find a way to collect more. Then I will use a crusher to crush it. This will be in line with the current level.
There is nothing wrong with him now. When the battle really starts, he will come and see more, but he must not let anything happen.
The next day she still ordered forty pounds of meat, and she had already started working when she arrived.
"Sister-in-law, let's have steamed buns for lunch today. There will be some extra meat left over for stewed potatoes in the evening."
"You decide."
Luo Bingyuan arranged for people to stack corn baskets on the mountain. He was also working last night. Half of them were already stacked.
"So fast?"
"The fifty-three of us didn't work very fast."
"Yeah. By the way. Yesterday Qiangzi told me that the county is looking for Xiao Tongran. It probably means two things. One is to ask for benefits, and the other is to buy food. After all, the national army is also short of food."
"It's a beautiful thought. Originally, it was quite peaceful here. If that's the case, we might as well liberate this place first."
"Qiangzi also said that Xiao Tongran had this idea."
"I'll go out after I finish the work here. Don't worry, the liberation of this county shouldn't be difficult."
"Okay, look at the arrangements. I originally wanted to leave the day after tomorrow. But if this happens, I have to wait for Xiao Tongran to come back."
"You decide."
All the potatoes were harvested throughout the day today, and the final estimated potato yield was about 50,000 jins.
"It's really productive. I'll plant more varieties next year."
Tomorrow I won't remove the sweet potatoes. Instead, I'll start cutting the potatoes.
This job is more tedious, the main thing is to clean it.
The soil here is black clay, and the potatoes are indeed covered in a lot of mud, making them difficult to wash.
The next day I came over and started wiping potato slices. I was afraid of hurting my hands, so I made a special tool.
There are many people working, carrying potato slices to the threshing field to dry. Now the area has been covered with reed curtains, which is clean and easy to dry.
