Rebirth space a little field

Chapter 54 The Ginger Is Ripe
In the afternoon, Chen Sanniu planted the three pieces of ginger in the vegetable garden, and then went to work in the field with Chen Yangshi.Chen Guaibao sneaked into the space, and took out a box with ten catties of ginger in it.

Chen Guaibao has always been thinking about ginger. Now that spring is here, it is a good season for planting ginger. Chen Guabao bought another ten catties of ginger from Taobao. Before, she was worried about where the ginger was planted, but she received it yesterday. It's a coincidence that Chen Song sent three pieces of ginger today.

The vegetable plot of Chen Guaibao's house is very empty, and there are only three kinds of vegetables grown in it: cucumbers, beans, eggplants.The rest is empty space.Chen Sanniu cleared out a large area for planting three pieces of ginger just now, which is convenient for Chen Guaibao. She called Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang to dig a hole to plant ginger together.

Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang were very surprised by the ginger that Chen Guabao brought out. Chen Guabao was fooled by saying "I dug it in the mountains again", and it took an hour to plant the ginger. Chen Guabao looked left Look right to see very satisfied.

Two days later, after learning that Chen Songshi had asked for two little rabbits from Chen Guaibao's house, Chen Lishi also came over. Xiaomi often came to play with Da Zhuang. Yes know.

She also had the idea of ​​coming over to ask for a rabbit before, but before she took any action, Chen Song took the first step. As sisters-in-law, if Chen Song could ask for it, she could naturally, so Chen Li came over to ask for a pair. rabbit.

Chen Sanniu sent two more rabbits. Fortunately, the little rabbits did not die this time, otherwise this month's income would be much less.

When the female rabbit was about to give birth next time, Chen Sanniu found an ox cart and carried the rabbit and eggs to the town.

This time there were still twelve rabbits, but there was only one basket of eggs, and this time he got more than 300 coins. Chen Sanniu couldn't hide the smile on his face.

Spring goes and autumn comes, and it is September again with the fragrance of golden osmanthus.

For the past six months, Chen Guabao's family has sold rabbits once a month, plus selling eggs and other odds and ends, their family has earned a total of three taels of silver.

This is not a small amount. In the past, Chen Sanniu and Chen Yang worked hard for five or six years to save more than two taels of silver. Now they only raise rabbits and earn three taels of silver in half a year. Chen Sanniu and Chen Yang sighed more than once Chen Guaibao is a little lucky star, and he lamented that the three children in their family are really capable and good-looking!
The living standard of Chen Guaibao's family has improved a little bit. In the past, their family didn't see the smell of meat for half a year, but now they can eat meat every month. Every time Chen Sanniu sells rabbits, he will buy some pork, which is a great relief. Chen Guabao's desire for meat.

But in general, Chen Sanniu and Chen Yang's family is still not insignificant, only five taels of silver, Chen Guaibao's small coffers are more than theirs, selling wild vegetables in spring, selling fish and wild mountain products in summer, after half a year, Chen There are seven taels of silver in Guaibao's account.

Compared with others, Chen Guaibao has become a veritable little rich woman.

Now Chen Guaibao's family has two male rabbits, three female rabbits, and two hens.Chen Guaibao didn't think about expanding the scale of breeding. First, she was too busy, and second, she was afraid of bird flu. Chen Guaibao counted rabbits as poultry, anyway, they were all animals.

She is a complete novice in breeding, so Chen Guabao is very satisfied to make a little money by doing such a small job.

Autumn is the harvest season, and the ginger that Chen Guaibao has always been obsessed with has finally arrived.

For the past six months, Chen Guaibao has devoted [-]% of his enthusiasm to this piece of ginger. Every day, he would stand in the vegetable garden and look at it for a long time, watering and weeding frequently. Chen Guaibao took care of this piece of ginger as his own son. After half a year of hard work, the harvest season has finally arrived!
Chen Sanniu planted three pieces of ginger, but in the end a large piece of ginger grew out. Chen Sanniu expressed his puzzlement. After all, the ginger planted in the old courtyard last year grew as much as it was planted. Chen Guaibao laughed and said Maybe ginger is like this. If you plant a little bit, you can grow a large piece.

Chen Sanniu naturally wouldn't believe Chen Guaibao's words, but it's not a bad thing to grow a large area, so Chen Sanniu didn't think much about it in the end.

After a good day of smoking, Chen Sanniu dug out the ginger.

Chen Guaibao was present when digging the ginger, seeing the palm-sized pieces of ginger, Chen Guaibaole's eyes narrowed into a slit, and the final result was gratifying.

Ten catties of ginger were planted at the beginning, and more than 100 catties were harvested in the end!
This data makes people crazy with joy!
Chen Guaibao thanked all the gods he could think of in his heart, this statistic is really gratifying!
However, after learning about the ginger from Chen Song's family, Chen Guaibao thanked the gods for most of the time. Chen Song's family collected more than 200 catties of ginger. It seems that the soil in Shanhe Village is suitable for the growth of ginger.

The ginger was dug out and piled into a small pile. Chen Guaibao wandered around the pile of ginger for a long time, staring at the pile of ginger with bright eyes. This is not ginger, but silver!

Bring the pile of ginger back to the house, and the family gathered together to discuss how to dispose of the ginger.

Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang never spoke, they only listened.

"Why don't you sell it to shopkeeper Li?" Chen Sanniu spoke first.In the past six months, Chen Sanniu and Li Tianyuan have been working together happily. Now that the ginger has been unearthed, the first thing Chen Sanniu thinks of is Li Tianyuan.

"Well, sell it to Shopkeeper Li." Chen Guaibao nodded in agreement, "The people next to me have never seen ginger, so I don't know what it is for. We have to explain it, and others may not believe it. It's better to sell it directly to Shopkeeper Li. And let him see the beauty of ginger on the spot."

"Then how do you sell this ginger? How much is it per catty?" Chen Yang asked.

"This ginger is not the only one in our family. I don't know how the eldest brother and second brother sell it." Chen Sanniu frowned.The Chen Song family accounted for most of the tens of catties of ginger harvested last year. This year, the Chen Song family harvested twice as much ginger as Chen Kuaibao's family.

"Why don't you go ask and discuss it with the eldest brother and the second brother. Shopkeeper Li is a good man and never bullies us. If we ask for a higher price, it's not good." Chen Yang said in a low voice.

"Okay, I'll go over tonight and ask." Chen Sanniu agreed.

After dinner in the evening, while it was still dark, Chen Sanniu went to Chen Erniu's house first, and together with Chen Erniu came to Chen's old home.

Sanniu of the Chen family sat together to discuss the price of ginger.

Chen’s Sanniu and Chen Erniu’s gingers are the least, just over 80 catties, so he was the first to speak, “I’ve heard from Big Brother and Sanniu, you can pay as much as you want per catty.”

"This ginger is a rare item, only our three brothers have it, and this ginger has many benefits. We can't set the price too low." Chen Daniu said with narrowed eyes.

Chen Sanniu thought for a while, and said, "Big brother, second brother, how are you going to sell this ginger? Are you going to sell it loosely or to a certain tavern?"

"San Niu, what do you think?" Chen Daniu answered.

"I think it's better to sell it to a certain tavern. Others don't know the benefits of ginger, so we have to explain it one by one. As for others, they may not believe it. It's easier for us to sell it directly to a certain tavern."

"Sanniu is right, it's too troublesome to sell loose." Chen Erniu agreed with Chen Sanniu's words.

"You want to sell to shopkeeper Li?" Chen Daniu guessed what Chen Sanniu was thinking at once. Seeing Chen Sanniu nodding, Chen Daniu continued, "Since you are selling to shopkeeper Li, the price can't be set too high. After all, Sanniu You still have to deal with shopkeeper Li."

"Don't be too low, after all, it is something we have worked so hard to grow. And this thing is easy to grow, and it will definitely increase in the future. We won't be able to sell it for a few times." Chen Sanniu hurriedly said.

"How about thirty Wen a catty?" Chen Daniu reported a number.

"Thirty Wen a catty!" Chen Erniu exclaimed, "This is more expensive than pork!"

"Who made this good? Not only can it remove the fishy smell, but it can also be used as a seasoning for cooking. It kills two birds with one stone." Chen Daniu didn't think it was expensive, so using tea and vinegar to remove the fishy smell was very costly.

"Let's set this price tentatively. Shopkeeper Li will definitely bargain." Chen Sanniu agreed with the price.

So the price of ginger is set like this.

You can't sell all the ginger, you have to keep some of it as seeds. Of course, your family has to eat some too. Chen Daniu kept [-] catties, Chen Erniu kept [-] catties, and Chen Sanniu kept [-] catties.

When Chen Song learned that Chen Sanniu's family had harvested a hundred catties of ginger, she was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time. It was a miracle that one hundred catties of ginger was grown out of three pieces of ginger!
Chen Songshi didn't think it was a miracle, she thought it was Chen Guaibao's fault, she thought there was still ginger in the mountains, but Chen Guaibao didn't say anything.

Ginger was first discovered by Chen Guaibao. At that time, Chen Guaibao insisted that he only found so much. As a result, three pieces of ginger in Chen Sanniu’s family have grown a hundred catties of ginger. Chen Song believes that there must be ginger in the mountains. It's just that Chen Guaibao doesn't say anything!
Chen Songshi made another note of this little girl's nonsense in her heart for Chen Guaibao.

She decided that if nothing happened in winter, she would search all three mountains, and she must find ginger!
Taking a moment, Chen Jiasanniu went to the town together with a small basket of ginger, found Li Tianyuan, and personally proved the benefits of ginger to him. Ask for all the ginger.

When he learned that there was no other family except this one and only two hundred catties of ginger, Li Tianyuan shut his mouth to bargain again. Chen Sanniu thought of him first when he got such a good thing, and he was embarrassed to cut it again. price.

So in the end, the two hundred catties of ginger were sold at a price of thirty Wen per catty.

Chen Daniu's family got three taels of silver, and Chen Erniu's and Chen Sanniu's families got one and a half taels of silver.

Ginger was sold for a tael or two of silver, which was a bit inconsistent with Chen Guaibao's imagination. She thought she could sell it for more money.

Chen Sanniu and his wife now have six and a half taels of money. After removing the two taels given to Chen Song, there are only four taels of silver left. If the family only has more than four taels of silver, Chen Sanniu and Chen Yang will never let Da Zhuang He and Zhuang Zhuang went to the academy to study.

Dazhuang's age can no longer be delayed.

Chen Guaibao was worried again.

It is difficult to make money, it is difficult to make money, and it is difficult to go to the sky.

This is true, but in fact it is much easier to make money than going to the sky. Autumn is the golden season for rabbits to breed and hens to lay eggs. Strong beam repair fee to earn out!

Chen Guaibao decided to fight, she wants to expand the scale of breeding!If she is not afraid of suffering or tiredness!

Chickens are prone to bird flu, so she dare not raise more, she wants to raise more rabbits.

Chen Guaibao kept three female rabbits before, but this time Chen Guaibao kept five female rabbits. She will try to sell [-] rabbits every month for three months in autumn!
The rabbit nest is a bit small, Chen Guaibao asked Chen Sanniu to enlarge the rabbit nest, there are more rabbits, Chen Guaibao is busier every day, she has no time to go to the mountains to search for wild goods.

The autumn harvest is mainly about harvesting corn. As long as the corn is brought home, the rest will not be too busy. It took half a month to carry the corn home in baskets, and Chen Sanniu and Chen Yang are not so busy.They threshed corn at home every day, and Chen Guaibao's burden was greatly relieved.

There were dozens of rabbits crowded together in the rabbit nest, which was a bit too much. Chen Sanniu stood in front of the rabbit nest and said to Chen Yangshi who was peeling corn, "Mulian, there are a lot more rabbits in our house than before. How about sending two to the elder brother and the second brother's family?"

In the past six months, he has saved a few taels of silver by selling rabbits. He thinks that it is a good way to raise rabbits. Chen Sanniu wants Chen Daniu and Chen Erniu to follow suit. Two denarii.

Chen Guaibao was sitting next to her at this time, and when she heard her father's words, she spoke first, "Auntie and Second Aunt came over and asked for two rabbits." She raised rabbits to sell money to send Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang to study , she didn't want to give it away casually.

"The two rabbits that your aunt took away ran away that night, and the two that your second aunt took away died after a few days of raising them. Let's send two more."

Chen Songshi asked Chen Sanniu for two rabbits at the beginning, and brought them back to raise and sell them for money. As a result, the two rabbits burrowed and ran away on the first night, which made Chen Song very angry.She was going to ask Chen Sanniu for it again, but was reprimanded by Chen Daniu, and she stopped thinking about raising rabbits.

And Chen Lishi is better than Chen Songshi. After she went back, she tied up the two rabbits. The rabbits did not run away, but after a few days of feeding, both rabbits died. For this reason, Chen Lishi complained to Chen Erniu What Chen Sanniu gave her was not a good rabbit, and Chen Erniu reprimanded her a few times, and Chen Lishi also gave up raising rabbits.

"Father, do you know why I have to raise so many rabbits?" Chen Guaibao asked aggrievedly, she was not for the future of being strong and strong.

"Eh." Chen Sanniu was at a loss for words, what Chen Guaibao wanted to do, Chen Sanniu would generally support it unconditionally, Chen Guaibao said he wanted to raise a few rabbits, Chen Sanniu agreed without asking. Now that Chen Guaibao suddenly asked this question, he really didn't know how to answer it.

"Father, I want my eldest brother and second brother to go to the academy to study."

"Study?" Chen Guaibao's words attracted the eyes of his parents and brothers.

"Yeah." Chen Guaibao nodded and explained, "I see that Brother Silang is very good at reading, but I can't understand a lot of what he said. Go to study. The beam repairs in the academy are very expensive, and our family has no money, so I have to raise more rabbits."

"You raised rabbits to send Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang to the academy?!" Chen Sanniu stared at Chen Guaibao in disbelief, his face full of shock.

Chen Guaibao was a girl who didn't like to talk in the past, but after suffering from a serious illness, she became talkative and worried. She would chime in and give some advice on big and small matters at home.Regarding Chen Guaibao's change, Chen Sanniu didn't think much about it before, and only thought that her temperament changed after a serious illness.

Now hearing what Chen Guaibao said, Chen Sanniu felt that it was necessary to get to know his little daughter again. His little daughter had more ideas than he did, and was farther than he thought.And for her ideas and goals, she has been working hard and working hard.

"Good boy!" Chen Sanniu said with emotion, what a wonderful daughter he raised!
"Guaibao, do you know what's the use of reading?" Chen Yangshi stopped the movements of his hands, pulled Chen Guaibao to his side and asked softly.

"I know, mother, you said that you can be an official if you study."

"It's not easy to be a master." Chen Yang shook his head.

At this time, Da Zhuang interjected, "Mom, I want to study in the academy!" Da Zhuang is very familiar with Yang Silang now, and he is very yearning to hear Yang Silang talk about the academy, and he also wants to experience it!
"Mom, I want to go too." Zhuang Zhuang also said.He also wants to visit the academy.

"This." Chen Yang looked at Chen Sanniu, she couldn't make up her mind.

Chen Sanniu was silent for a while, and then said in a difficult way, "If our family had spare money, we would definitely send Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang to study in the academy, but our family has no spare money."

"Shuxiu of the academy gets two taels of silver a year, and Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang get four taels of silver a year. Our family can afford this money, but in the future, now this rabbit is being raised by Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang. Da Zhuang, Zhuang Zhuang, Zhuang Zhuang goes to the academy to study, Guaibao can't raise so many rabbits by himself."

Studying is not a matter of one or two years, but repairing is not a small expense.Chen Sanniu had never thought about this before, but now that Chen Guaibao brought it up, the first thing he thought of was the difficulty.

"Isn't it just a few rabbits? It's okay, the two of us will work harder in the future, let's raise them." Chen Yang said.Chen Yangshi had thought about it, Chen Guaibao had asked her about it before.If Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang have the opportunity to study, she will definitely support it with all her strength.

"It makes me think about it." Chen Sanniu said.

It's not that he doesn't want Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang to study, but that he has never thought about it before, so he has to think about it.

Before going to bed at night, Chen Sanniu thought about it and finally decided to let Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang go to study!

Isn't it just a few rabbits, he and Chen Yangshi worked harder, it's nothing.His Guaibao is so sensible and diligent at such a young age, he can't be inferior to Guaibao.He doesn't expect Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang to be successful in the exam, as long as his two children can read and write, he is satisfied.

Being able to do accounts, being able to read and write, and being able to work as an accountant in the county town in the future is much better than spending a lifetime digging in the land.

So the matter was settled.

When Da Zhuang and Zhuang Zhuang learned that they would be able to study in the academy next year, they jumped three feet high happily. They often heard Yang Silang say how good the academy is, and they immediately realized it!
When Yang Silang returned home from vacation, Da Zhuang couldn’t wait to tell him the news, and Yang Silang was very happy when he heard it. He was the only student in Shanhe Village, and every time he went to the academy, he was alone. Now he His good friend is also going to study, and his joy is beyond words.
