Early in the morning, Zhu Qing got up and found that Li Zheng had arrived at their house.
"Qingya, your grandpa Li Zheng has something to ask you!" Mrs. Wang was always respectful to Li Zheng. When she saw Li Zheng coming, she quickly called Zhu Qing out.
"Qingya, did your trip to Huangni Village go smoothly yesterday?" Li Zheng knew Zhu Qing's plan, so he was also very concerned.
"It went very well. Grandpa Zhang promised that he would make it for me as soon as possible! We came back late yesterday, so I didn't go looking for you!" Zhu Qing expressed his gratitude to Li Zheng for his concern.
"Hey, that's great! This can be regarded as solving a big problem! Qingya, if you have to mix medical alcohol when the time comes, just ask if you don't have the manpower! Everyone is willing to help you!" Li Zheng frowned, very happy with this result.
satisfy.
"Grandpa, you came today to plant mint, right?" Zhu Qing remembered that the weather was going to get warmer soon, and as soon as spring started, the spring plowing work would get busy.
"Yes, Qingya, you are so smart! The weather has started to get warmer these days. I went to the county government and told Mr. Guan about planting mint in our village. He agreed that I would set aside some wasteland for everyone to try planting.
"So, I'm here to discuss with you today how we should arrange this matter?" Li Zheng came here precisely to plant mint.
Zhuqing and his family succeeded in making peppermint oil last year and made a lot of money. Everyone in the village was envious.
Zhuqing had seen that everyone in the village was having a hard time, and she also found that there was a huge demand for peppermint oil in the market, and her family could not supply that much. Moreover, she also thought that instead of being stolen by others,
After learning or imitating it to seize the market share, it is better for her to lead everyone in the village to make a fortune together.
With the whole village working hard and making together, everyone's life will be better, and her family's life will only be better.
So she smiled at Li Zheng and said: "I have mint seeds at home. You can ask me to buy them, or go to the market to buy them. As for how to grow mint, my mother will teach you for free. If you are willing to follow suit, you can follow me.
Plant together. How to arrange those wastelands is up to you.
Yes! My family also wants to plant another five acres of wasteland this year. As for the mint grown by everyone, if you are willing to learn how to make mint oil from me, you can make it with me. If you are not willing, you can also sell the mint to me or give it to the town.
The Liang Family Pharmacy on the street takes the processing. I can charge these at market prices."
Li Zheng listened to what Zhu Qing said was so logical and could not help but admire him: "Girl, you have such a bright mind! Okay, just do what you said! I can help you arrange the five acres of your land right away.
!”
He said to Sun Fucheng, who was a little stunned when he heard that his daughter was so capable, and said: "Fucheng, you will follow me later. I will clear out your land for you. Let's work together."
Drive a stake!”
"Hey, hey..." Sun Fucheng nodded repeatedly.
"Qingya, the price of wasteland is lower than that of paddy fields. I'll give you one tael of silver per acre for your family! Fertile land is now 20 taels of silver per acre. For five acres of land, give me five taels of silver! Let's go there then.
Just report it to the county!" Li Zheng was obviously a seasoned man, he directly paid Zhu Qing all the fees for the wasteland, and the matter was settled.
Now Zhuqing can be regarded as the biggest support in the village. She not only provides everyone with Ruanjin Powder to protect the village, but also teaches medical skills to the girls in the village. Now she also teaches everyone to grow mint and make mint oil for free, so that everyone can
In order to get a share of her family's previous profits, Li Zheng must first stick to her in everything.
"Okay!" Li Zheng was happy, and Zhu Qing was also happy.
She asked Wang to pay the money directly, and Li Zheng took Sun Fucheng and went out.
"Fucheng, come on, come with me to mark the land! I'm very busy today!"
"Qingya, you have to prepare your mint seeds. Everyone will definitely come to buy them today." He told Zhuqing before leaving.
Seeing that the Zhuqing family is living a prosperous life, everyone in the village is not envious. Knowing that their family is willing to lead everyone to plant mint, all the people in the village who want to make a fortune and are willing to endure hardship will almost go crazy with joy.
As soon as Li Zheng left, Zhu Qing knew that the house would be packed to the brim.
So Mr. Wang and I prepared the mint seeds from five acres of our own land and put them away. We simply took the other seeds to the front hall and prepared them, waiting for everyone in the village to come over.
Sure enough, as Li Zheng took Sun Fucheng to demarcate wasteland, the news that the Zhuqing family planned to take everyone to plant mint together soon spread wildly in the village.
The first person to come to the door was, of course, their know-it-all neighbor Aunt Huaihua: "Sister-in-law Lanfen, your family really plans to bring everyone together to make a fortune this year? Well, how do you sell mint seeds? Can you give me a cheaper price?"
"
As soon as Aunt Huaihua opened her mouth, the people who came in behind her took the lead: "Huaihua, what's the matter with you? It's great that Lanfen and his family are willing to lead everyone to grow mint! Why don't you get the advantage and behave well!"
"But it was Li Zheng's eldest daughter-in-law, Aunt Juying, who came.
Aunt Huaihua blushed for a while when she was snatched by her, and then she said in a low voice: "As for the folks in this country, you don't look up when you look down. It's okay even if it's cheaper! After all, Sister-in-law Lanfen and her family also made a lot of money last year!
It’s not like our family, where we have so many mouths to eat, and we only have to endure the hardship of holding on to the two-thirds of an acre of land..."
"Sister-in-law Lanfen and her family can add so much income, isn't it possible for their family to work hard? If Qingya hadn't worked so hard that her life was almost gone, how could their family's life have improved so quickly?
?You said that their family has such a good life, how can they take advantage of it?
Who did they lose? Who has ever helped them regardless of their own lives? My father-in-law was just worried that the big guys in the village would not take advantage of others, so he asked me to come here first. Who knew that Huaihua, you would still be the number one?
One!" Aunt Juying said rather unfairly.
Aunt Huaihua couldn't hold her head up after what she said. She was used to taking advantage of others, so what she just said didn't cross her mind at all.
Now when I heard what Juying said, when I thought about it myself, I felt that what I said was unreasonable.
It's just that her family is also thinking that they can finally make more money, and there is absolutely no reason to turn around and leave if they are ashamed.
But she felt very embarrassed and uncomfortable when she heard Zhuqing say: "Aunt Huaihua, how many acres of land does your family plan to plant this year? Let me help you calculate how many seeds you need."
Mint seeds cannot be cheap. Zhuqing knows that this will definitely not work. Sometimes people often don’t take the help they get too easily, and even take it for granted. In the future, they may not only be ungrateful, but also take it for granted.
Instead, resentment arose.
But she didn't want to push Aunt Huaihua to the point where she couldn't step down. After all, her character was like this. There was no need for her to fuss with her. So, she gave her time to step down.
