Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich

Chapter 86 The Potato Seeds in the Cave

"It's good to be back."

The old man Niu's face softened a little, his voice was still flat, not as excited as Liu Qingcao thought.

She didn't think much about it either, it was just that he acted calmly on purpose.

Day by day, the vegetables in the field were washed and dried in batches, and finally packed into bags. Liu Kaifu's house has already taken shape.

In the past few days, the weather has not been so hot. After the villagers have finished the preparations for planting potatoes, they start to plow the fields in the fields of willows and grass.

Liu Qingcao put a pack of dried cabbage into the space, leaving only a part in Luo Shiyuan's room as an eyesore.

Because building a factory shed and growing potatoes required a lot of grain and grass, Liu Qingcao bought both grain and grass from the two neighboring villages of Shihe Village.

Two bundles for one penny, this is a good deal for the poor. Therefore, they only kept the necessary amount, and packed all of them into bundles and sent them to Shihe Village.

"It's almost time to plant potatoes."

Liu Qingcao looked at the huge field in the distance, the corners of her mouth raised high.

"Girl, take a rest, it feels like you've lost a lot of weight these days."

Chen Cuizhi looked at the much thinner Liu Qingcao, feeling distressed.

"It's okay, it's probably because the weather has turned cold, and I'm not used to it."

Hearing this, Liu Qingcao stretched out her skinny little hand and touched her face.

It's because she lost a lot of weight. She used to have a baby fat face, but due to the busy days, she didn't have much rest, so she lost weight.

"Girl..." Chen Cuizhi wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Liu Qingcao.

"Sister Chen, have you made the latest preserved preserved eggs?"

"I did. I went to collect a thousand eggs a few days ago, and I also collected [-] duck eggs. They were all finished yesterday and placed in the newly built house."

When Chen Cuizhi mentioned this, her eyes lit up. The girl told her that the preserved preserved eggs are worth twenty or thirty yuan each, and you can buy fifteen or sixteen raw eggs.

Every time she makes one, she feels happy. After making [-] preserved eggs, she is very tired, but her heart is full of joy.

"We'll be able to sell them in large quantities in half a month. When the time comes, let's go to the town and rent a shop. Sister Chen, you can sell preserved eggs and take care of Ping An's studies."

Liu Qingcao looked at Chen Cuizhi, who was smiling brightly beside her, thinking.

The reputation of Preserved Eggs has already been spread, but this is not enough, it needs to be pushed further.

"Girl..." Chen Cuizhi frowned, tears rolled in her eyes, and called out in a nasal voice.

Liu Qing laughed angrily.

"Sister Chen, I'm just going to the town. I go in the morning and come back in the evening. After that, Jiangbei and Ping'an will stay in the academy and come and go with you."

"Oh, I thought I did something wrong for the girl to push me away like this."

Chen Cuizhi pulled out a joyful smile, tears welled up in her eyes, but they never fell, she looked charming and affectionate.

"Sister Chen, the ashes from the past two days have to be kept, and they can't be used to sow the vegetable garden anymore."

"Okay, in the future, I'll put it in a frame and put it aside."

Chen Cuizhi rolled her eyes and promised.

Liu Qingcao covered her mouth and chuckled, thinking that Chen Cuizhi was becoming more and more like a child.

After lunch, Liu Qingcao sat in the yard sorting out the villagers' contracts.

The above more or less recorded the villagers' fields and the potato seeds they needed. At the beginning, Liu Qingcao estimated that the potato seeds were [-] mu of land.

Later, Jiang Dafu came to tell her again that after the villagers had taken care of their own land, they went to reclaim some wasteland while they still had time, about [-] mu.

Liu Qingcao didn't refuse either, anyway, she can harvest once every five days, which is completely enough for planting.

"Girl, with so many lands, how many kinds do you need?" Chen Cuizhi looked at the two stacks of deeds in Liu Qingcao's hand, and went up to ask.

Liu Qingcao put the contract aside, picked up the brush, and started talking to Chen Cuizhi.

"Now the villagers have freed up all their land to grow potatoes. According to my statistics, the whole village has 250 acres of land. Adding my own 310 acres, there are [-] acres of land.

One mu of land needs [-] catties of potato seeds, and if it is not densely planted, it needs [-] catties of potato seeds..."

"So much?" Chen Cuizhi was so surprised by this number that her mouth grew wide, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.

Liu Qingcao looked at the numbers on the paper, propped her chin, and shed tears silently in her heart. There are so many potatoes, but she was the result of working day and night alone. She still remembered the bubbles on her hands in those days, big and small, It's terrible.

But those bubbles only existed for a few hours, and they disappeared quickly after she drank the Lingquan water, and the pain only hurt for a while.

"Girl, do you have so many potato seeds? Why haven't I seen them?"

Chen Cuizhi came out of the shock, and asked suspiciously, so many potatoes must occupy a large part of the house, but the house is so big, where are the potatoes.

"It's on the mountain, tomorrow we will take people up the mountain to pick it up."

Liu Qingcao smiled. Two days ago, she went up the mountain to find a new place for the potatoes in the space.

She searched for that place for a long time before finding it. It was a big and deep cave, which was completely covered by hanging vines and grass. If you didn't pay attention, you couldn't find it at all.

"Girl, I am so happy to be in the same village as you."

"We're lucky to have them."

Two days later, outside Liu Qingcao's yard, Jiang Dafu called all the strong laborers in the village over.

"Mr. Jiang, I'm afraid there are not enough people like us."

Xiong Wu looked at the hundred and ten people around him, and made a sound.

"If it's not enough, let's run a few more times. We can't let the women in the family do physical work."

Jiang Dafu heard what Liu Qingcao said yesterday, and hurriedly went door-to-door to inform that everyone except Zhuang labor stayed at home and prepared to cut potato seeds according to Liu Qingcao's method.

The road up the mountain is not close, and even a very capable woman in the village will be exhausted after running down the mountain.

"That's fine, let's be a man, let's make as many trips as possible!" Xiong Wu patted his chest, looked at Jiang Dafu and said with a smile.

Liu Qingcao tidied up a bit, then went out, and saw a dark place, all of them were Kong Wu's powerful men with curved mouths.

"Brother Jiang, let's go and try to move them all down today."

"Okay, everyone, take everything, let's go back early."

With a loud voice, Jiang Dafu yelled into the crowd, and at the same time, the crowd began to surge, and they walked towards the back mountain in waves.

More than half an hour later, Liu Qingcao finally brought him to the cave.

"Qingcao, did you put all the potatoes here?" Jiang Dafu looked at the densely covered place with vines and grass in front of him, and asked in confusion.

There are no potatoes here, they are just grass and vines, maybe they are in the soil! ?

Liu Qingcao nodded, and stepped forward to push the grass and vines away. The thick grass, vines and Liu Qingcao were a bit difficult to pull up. Seeing this, Xiong Wu immediately went to help.

When the grass and vines were pulled apart, light entered inside, and densely packed potatoes appeared in front of everyone.

"hiss……"

"so much?"

Everyone was amazed, Jiang Dafu was also stunned for a moment, and soon laughed.

"Everyone, bring the picks and pick them next to each other. Be gentle with your hands, so as not to hurt the good potatoes."

This is all silver!
"I know, village chief." Xiong Wu stepped forward with a smile, put the Luodou on the ground, and began to pick it up carefully.

Liu Qingcao stood aside and watched with a smile, without saying a word, seeing Xiong Wu's burly body and his funny way of picking up potatoes with light hands, she lowered her head and smiled.
