The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 552: Expanding the vegetable garden area
Bai Meixi is very happy that the people in the space have the awareness to make money, especially Han Shitou, who usually seems to be the most dull, but unexpectedly he is as wise as a fool. He is extremely flexible when it comes to making money, and he is a useful person.

And Han Shitou must have discovered that these crops grew very fast, so he proposed to plant sweet potatoes and vegetables, agricultural products that everyone needs. Even if they can't be sold, they can eat them themselves.

"It's good to have more kinds of things, but this will make it harder for everyone. We haven't had a break this month and have been working overtime every day. Why not take this opportunity to rest for a while and wait for the land to be harvested?" Once the sweet potatoes that have been planted are ripe, they will be planted and managed in a unified manner.”

Bai Meixi knew how much more space there was. If all the sweet potatoes and vegetables were planted, it would probably take a week. The future management would also be a huge workload, which would make the lives of the two families much busier than before.

So she deliberately set aside a few days for them to have a good rest in the yard, sit in the sun, drink tea, chat, and enjoy their free time.

"It's okay, boss. Farming is our profession. If we hadn't come to this place, we would be working and farming at the same time. We wouldn't be delayed by anything, and we wouldn't feel hard. On the contrary, we wouldn't dare to do anything. I will feel uncomfortable all over, and to tell you the truth, I saw this land two days ago, and if it weren’t for your disapproval, I would have planted it.”

Han Shitou said it very truthfully. They were all farmers, and they hated having their land idle. They always wanted to grow something on it. Even a few kilograms of beans could provide them with food for most of the year.

What's more, sweet potatoes are a staple food. Many poor families can't afford flour and rice at all. They can only rely on sweet potatoes and potatoes to satisfy their hunger. Coupled with the vegetables in the field, Bai Meixi does not need to provide them with food in the future, and the two families can live well. Living can save Bai Meixi a lot of money.

"That's right, sweet potato leaves can also be eaten by sheep. Now we are raising more and more things here. These sweet potato leaves are not enough to eat. If there are more lambs, the sweet potato leaves will be even more important in the future. They must be planted early. That’s all.”

Aunt Liu immediately agreed and asked the children to take out a few sets of farm tools from the warehouse. Farming was their old profession and they could farm no matter how much land they had. Now this was just a trivial matter.

"Of course I'm happy that everyone is willing to farm. But we still have to buy food from outside. These sweet potatoes and vegetables are not nutritious enough. Several children are growing, so they can't just eat these things."

When Bai Meixi saw that Aunt Liu and her family were trying to save money for her, she immediately refused. They had no chance to go shopping now and had to rely on her to provide everything. If they could only use the sweet potatoes in the space to deal with them. , Bai Meixi will feel that she is an unscrupulous profiteer.

Aunt Liu and her family moved very quickly. They didn't even hear what Bai Meixi said after that. They rushed directly to the fields with farm tools. In less than 5 minutes, a group of people got into working mode, holding hoes and The land is loosened.

Bai Meixi checked the things in the space and found that there were not many ingredients left. She had to go to Tong County to buy more things and come back.

Bai Meixi returned to the warehouse in Tong County through the second door. The temperature here is much higher than that of Agu Mountain, and the fruits and vegetables are also exceptionally fresh. Especially during the period approaching the Chinese New Year, various merchants are concentrating on supplying goods, and even the market The rare and delicious vegetables are put on the stalls, making the whole market very lively.

Many people were wandering around the market, and some people put up window grilles early, hoping to use their skills to earn some money to supplement their families.Bai Meixi quickly purchased eggs, meat and vegetables. In order to reward Liu Mazi and Han Shitou, she also bought two bottles of good wine and two good cigarettes.Such a big deal is rare in the market, and her move immediately attracted the attention of some merchants, who all gathered around her.

"Sister, you are buying New Year's goods so early. The apples this time are very good, and these pears are all newly picked this year." The stall owner thought Bai Meixi was buying something for the New Year, and immediately recommended two kinds Fruits, these apples and pears were picked in autumn and stored in a dry and cool place. They are still full of moisture.

"How to sell these apples and pears?" Bai Meixi also wanted to buy some fruits for Aunt Liu and others to reward them. Now these apples and pears are just right and look fresh.

"They are all [-] cents per catty." The stall owner was a little embarrassed when he talked about the price. His products are always the best, but the prices of these fruits are also more expensive than other products. Most people can't afford them at all. He The stall has been set up for several days, but not many have been sold.

"Each item costs five kilograms." Bai Meixi was willing to spend money for Aunt Liu's family. She handed the three yuan to the stall owner and returned to the space with the heavy things. She gained a lot today. Feng, in addition to these fruits, there are also pastries and candies, which are all children like to eat.

She put the ingredients into the water tank used by Aunt Liu's house to store food, and placed the two bottles of wine and two cigarettes beside the stove. The luxurious lineup was more lively than the New Year's goods.

Aunt Liu and her family were still busy in the fields and did not realize that Bai Meixi had returned. She checked the farming situation of the land and found that Aunt Liu and her family were moving very quickly. They had cultivated dozens of acres and now only I need some vegetable seeds.

Bai Meixi used the big kitchen to cook some food for everyone, cut the fruits, boiled them in hot water, and put a lot of sugar in them.This method is similar to the method of making canned fruits, and it is especially delicious after cooling.

"Master, why are you back again? If you want to eat these things, just let me make them." Aunt Liu came back to get water for everyone. She saw that Bai Meixi had actually cooked a large pot of sugar stewed fruit. She knew that now It was winter outside, and fruits were very rare and expensive. Bai Meixi was at a loss for giving them such expensive food, and she didn't know how to repay her.

"It's just a small matter, Aunt Liu, let everyone take a break. There are not enough seeds yet. You can wait until I bring them over next time before starting work."

Seeing that Aunt Liu refused to rest, Bai Meixi could only find a reason for her so that she had to stay in the space.

She returned to the market in Tong County and found a seed seller. She spent 20 yuan and bought [-] kilograms of vegetable seeds and [-] kilograms of rapeseed seeds.

Bai Meixi estimated the yield of these things. These seeds can be planted on at least dozens of acres of land. According to the maturity speed of plants in space, it is estimated that a large number of crops can be harvested before the Chinese New Year.
