"Mother, you came back so early?" Xie Taohong quickly took the bamboo basket Yao Wanwan handed over.

Yao Wanwan let out a "hmm", looked at Sixi who was running towards "Grandma" quickly, and stopped her, "You want to bump into Grandma, don't you?"

"Milk, sugar." Sixi hugged Yao Wanwan's thigh and shouted in a childish voice.

Xie Taohong cast an annoyed look, "You are sugar all day long." He opened the oil paper from the bamboo basket, picked up a pancake that was fried golden on both sides, and handed it to Sixi, "Delicious girl, eat it Say thank you to grandma. Do you know that you should honor grandma when you grow up?"

Sixi made two "beeps".

"Xi'er, Erxi, Sanxi, the third daughter-in-law, the fourth daughter-in-law, come and eat one." Xie Taohong held the pancakes and sent them out one by one, "Xiaocao, do you eat pancakes or fried dumplings? Mom, it's so early Is there anyone selling pancakes?"

Yao Wanwan took the bamboo chair handed over by Zhu Xiaocao and sat down, took two sips of water from the teacup, and nodded.

"What are fried dumplings?" Zhu Xiaocao asked curiously.

"It's made of rice noodles. It's wrapped with tofu and a little minced meat. It's fried in rapeseed oil. Have you ever eaten it?" Xie Taohong explained, "That's it."

Zhu Xiaocao shook her head with a red face, "Let me eat a dumpling."

Yao Wanwan glanced strangely, why did she seem to be showing off in front of Zhu Xiaocao when she heard Xie Taohong's words?As far as your family's conditions are good, you have eaten, and your family's conditions are not much better than Zhu Xiaocao's.

"What about the boss? Has the food been handed over yet?"

"The grain was handed over yesterday, and we didn't get back until midnight yesterday, and we didn't get up for a long time. The three of them were on the threshing ground over the stage. The sky looked a little bad, and it might take two days It's raining, and Uncle Da Zhu said to weigh the leftover grain today, and then distribute the grain according to the number of acres of each family."

Yao Wanwan let out an "oh".

Xie Taohong handed the bamboo basket to Zhu Xiaocao, and took a bite of a large pancake in his hand, "It's really crispy, but it's too oily. Mother, will the food in the house be sold this year?"

"It's up to you to sell it or not. I don't care about this matter. The food is divided equally, and it is distributed equally according to the population of each of your families."

"Mom, if this is the case, then buy some! It won't save you from getting it back and selling it later, and it will be fine if you don't pay for it."

"The grain dealer is here?" Yao Wanwan asked.

Grain can still be sold privately these days. Of course, you can also choose to sell it to the state or to grain merchants.

However, the new country has just been established, and there are also big problems in these aspects of the economic order. The grain collected by the state plan is far from meeting the requirements.

Unscrupulous traders began to resell grain at high prices, driving up the price of grain, 20.00% higher than the government-guided price from farmers, and then double or even more than the market price for sale.

In the end, there was no way to formulate the unified purchase and marketing of grain. This policy lasted for nearly 40 years.

"What is the price of grain this year?"

"The grain merchant said that the price of [-] catties is [-] cents, and the purchase price of the government grain station is [-] cents, but if the government is on the side, you have to send the grain over by yourself. Only fools will sell it to the government. , it doesn’t matter if the price is low, you have to deliver it yourself.”

Yao Wanwan nodded again.

"There are fourteen of us, and the paddy field is divided into a total of about 45 mu. The village has calculated it. This year's harvest is good. If it is calculated on average, it is not a problem to have a field of two hundred catties per mu. Regardless of the last division The five hundred catties of grain, our family can at least share four thousand catties of grain this time, mother, how much do you think is appropriate to sell?" Xie Taohong asked with a flushed face, four thousand catties of grain!This all belonged to their family. If it was placed before the new government came, how could she believe that she could have so much food in her family at once in her whole life.

"Otherwise, mother, sell it for [-] catties. Anyway, wait for more than three months, and then the autumn harvest will be harvested. What do you think? A thousand catties of grain, even if our family wastes rice every day, that is enough gone."

Yao Wanwan calculated in her heart that with so many people in the family, [-] catties of grain a day and [-] catties of grain for three months were indeed enough.

If it's eaten open, it's definitely not enough, let alone her, even Dabao is only eight years old, and he can finish two full bowls of rice in one meal.

The main reason for being able to eat so much food is that there is no oil and water in the stomach.Like the boss, the second, and the third, if you let them eat with their stomachs open, the biggest pot in the house will not be enough for the three of them to eat. One person can make two or three catties of rice for one meal, and it will still be raw. That's also normal.

"Well! You can figure it out! Anyway, the food left in the family can't lose a thousand catties." Yao Wanwan nodded and replied.

After husking one hundred catties of rice, it is estimated to be more than 70 catties of rice, and one thousand catties of rice is only [-] to [-] catties of rice. If you save a little, it will be enough to eat until the autumn harvest.

You said you were full, and you ate dry rice for both meals, so how could that be possible?
And in the past two years, there have been no disasters, so there is no need to stockpile food. Besides, as far as their family is concerned, if they really stockpile, they will not be ruined by mice.

"Mother, how about hundreds of dollars?" Xie Taohong said with a smile.

"Well! It's the boss who got the most points this time."

Xie Taohong pursed her lips slightly, her face full of annoyance, "He has a lot of family members, I don't know if he will have a baby in the future, and if there is any land left? Think about it, I'm a loser. If I had known earlier, When Sixi was born, it would be good to have one as soon as possible. One more person would add three acres of land, and that would cost tens of dollars, which would be enough to raise a pig."

Although their side belongs to the mountainous area, there are really not many dry lands, and they are all paddy fields, so the paddy fields are three acres per person, and dry land is only one-third of the land per person.

"If there is no separation, I will be at a loss. In the future, the third child and I will have children, and rely on these few acres of land, how can we save money?" Zhu Xiaocao said in a low voice with her face flushed. .

Xie Taohong let out a "puchi" and said with a smile, "Who told you to enter the house now? If you had one in your stomach, you would have had your share when the land was divided. There are several women in the village. They all have children, so it’s all about dividing up the land.”

Yao Wanwan looked at Sixi who was pounced on her, grabbed her arm, and hit her butt a few times, "Look at you, look at you, your hands are covered in oil and water, and you still rub against me, I will It seems that you are in need of cleaning up, don't you?"
