Poor family mother and son

Chapter 75 Peanuts
Before leaving, Chu Qing asked Wu Dalang to come.Wu Dalang has been working at Chuqing's place, he is practical and capable, but he doesn't talk much.Every time Chu Qing saw him, he would think of his family's misfortune.

This time, Chu Qing told him that there was a chance to take him to Donglun, and asked him if he wanted to find his family.Wu Dalang was really excited.Of course he will.Chu Qing also included him in the food delivery team.His own people can also take care of him.

The sales force is excited.This is their first mission.The special operations team has already carried out the mission.And the technical group is basically guarding the house.Only their sales team has not officially used it.The rest of the sales team will be the envy of them.

Because of Chu Qing's confession, they assigned ten people to escort Wu Dalang and help him pick up his family members.The place has been taken over by Hong Liang's troops, and no matter what happens, these ten veterans can handle it.

The sales team preparing to set off each carried 100 taels of banknotes as pocket money.Chu Qing asked them to look for business opportunities as a premise, and make money if they can. If there is no chance, the 100 taels is enough for their round trip expenses.

In private, this sales force was divided into six teams, each with ten people, and when they arrived in Donglun, they would spread out in several ways.And the team that escorted Wu Dalang simply finished the escort work before getting down to business.They made an appointment to compete with each other.

Wu Dalang's team is the first team, and they successfully helped Wu Dalang take back his brother, son and wife.His Yue's family didn't even dare to say a word.

After the collapse of the Eastern Lun border, these Daxuan people who were regarded as road builders were left alone.With no fighting power and the village being controlled by the military, they would die if they didn't keep their tails between their legs.

After the first team sent Wu Dalang away, they started their investigation.Because they had the task of escorting, the other five teams left the nearest area to the first team, and they went far away.

The problem is that this border area is a mountain, although it is not too high, but there are only rocks except for the mountains, there is very little land, and it is very poor. I really don't see any business opportunities.These people were helpless.

"What should we do?" said one, "we can't go back empty-handed, can we?"

Another said: "Of course not!"

"If you want me to say, we still have little knowledge. Look at our master, everything can turn into money."

"I don't know if the stones here are worth much. Our master can burn bricks by digging some soil from the mountain."

"There is nothing valuable here except people! Why don't we drive people back and burn bricks for the master?"

"Who are you driving away! Who can worry about people here? It's better to drive some cattle and sheep back than to drive people away!"

However, there are not many cattle here.There is little land in the mountainous area, and the people are poor. The only valuable thing in every household is a few sheep.Everyone decided that if there was no harvest within a month, the sheep would be driven back.

Really shameless to return empty-handed.Not to mention anything else, their master can squeeze oil out of something as dry and hard as soybeans. It is conceivable that it would be shameless if they didn't bring something back.

Most of these veterans are also from farming households, and they can do the work in the field, but they can't do anything else.The battlefield doesn't teach anything else.So after the full month, they really didn't find any business to develop.In desperation, sheep from these villages were purchased.

At this time, just after the beginning of spring, the weather is still cold, and it is the peak time for sheep to lose fat.Sheep are having a hard time at this time of year.There is no fresh forage to eat, and all the dry forage is gone, and it is all supported by the little fat on the tail.If you can survive, you will live; if you can't, you will be slaughtered and eaten.

So it didn't cost a lot of money to acquire these sheep, but the difficulty was also great.If these thin sheep want to drive back, the cold and hunger will be the biggest test.The first team bought all the fodder they could buy, and planned to collect some in the mountains on the way home.How much can you bring back?

In this way, a group of sheep returned to Baolu Group with great effort.The sheep that died on the road were brought back by their belts. They ate all the meat that could be eaten, and carried the rest all the way back. They all became air-dried meat.

Chu Qing was very happy to see the poor sheep.Her sales team didn't come away empty-handed, which means they used their brains too.The more you practice a few times, the better your knowledge will be.

When he found out that the first team was the closest to home and came back so late because he had to find fodder for the sheep along the way, Chu Qing felt that these boys were really not easy.In such a cold day, she herself didn't want to go out of the house, but they still had to cut the dead grass in the mountains.

When the boys were stroking the remaining fodder to find a place to pack it up, Chu Qing saw that some of the grass looked familiar.Although it is dry, but the opposite small round leaves, there are still small grains at the root, why are they so peanut-like?
The world clearly hasn't seen peanuts yet!Reach out and break a piece, it's a peanut!Sent to the mouth to chew and chew, the preservation is very good, there is no mold.

"Hey master! Why are you putting it in your mouth! You can't eat this stuff!" said a young man.

"Yes, the locals don't eat it. If it's not delicious, they only eat sheep."

"Master, sometimes sheep will get sick if they eat this stuff, so don't try it blindly."

Knowing that everyone was kind, Chu Qing simply peeled another peanut in front of them and stuffed it into the mouth of the young man closest to her.The young man blushed greatly at this sudden action: The master is feeding it himself, is this treating him as a little treasure?
But after chewing like this: "Hey, it's so delicious!" As he said that, he reached out to pick another one and eat it.Chu Qing looked at the bundle of dried peanut seedlings and refused to let it go! "It's delicious, but don't eat it! Take it out, I'll be the seed!"

There are some wild peanuts in the mountains of Donglun. Because they are in shells, the locals taste them without peeling the shells. They are not very delicious, and they cannot be used as food.But I will make some wild vegetables when the peanut seedlings are still tender.

This is also when shepherding sheep, and seeing the sheep love to eat, I have the experience.But this thing is not safe to eat.Sometimes they bring back peanut seedlings to use as rations for sheep, but they are stacked in bundles, which is prone to mold, and the sheep get sick after eating them, and they die of serious illness, so they don't pay much attention to peanuts.

Chu Qing pondered, this might be the reason why there are peanuts, but they are not popularized.Now these peanuts are collected by Chu Qing like treasures, a dozen or so are less than five catties.Then pick out the shriveled and broken ones inside, and there won't be much left.If it is planted in the ground, it can be planted in less than half an acre of land.

But it doesn't matter, "One grain of millet planted in spring, ten thousand seeds harvested in autumn"!Wait until next year and she will have more seeds.

Chu Qing deep-fried the unqualified peanuts that he picked out, and asked everyone to eat them, only one plate.Each person can only eat a few pills.

"Is it fragrant?" Chu Qing looked at them with a smile.

"It's delicious! It's really fragrant! The more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes!" Everyone chewed hard, and each person only had a few pills, so they had to savor the taste!

"I will use the remaining peanuts to grow seedlings, and I won't give them to you. If there is a good harvest next year, please eat them well." Chu Qing promised.

"Boss, we have discussed that we have to go back and see if there is anything that can make money!" Said the team member.

"Yes, we want to look for another opportunity, and then we asked the locals to go to the mountains to dig peanuts, and we asked them to beat sheep grass, and they would definitely do it!"

"Master, we want to collect some coarse grains and bring them over. They don't have enough food. We want to exchange the grains with them for land, and we will also plant peanuts in the future!"

Chu Qing's eyes are bright, she has a brain!In exchange for land at a low price, and then turning the local farmers into tenant farmers, wouldn't they have another piece of land?There are even farmers!

"Okay, don't tell me, just go if you have a plan, and I will prepare for you if you need anything!"

The ten-man team set off again.

　Chu Qing clasped her fists together: Thank you for your votes. When the peanuts are planted, I invite you to drink!
