The bought lady will farm

Chapter 136 The Secret
When Zhao Dashan heard about the story, he was dumbfounded on the spot.

"This one……"

Li Hongmei laughed out loud.

"Haha... Zhao Dashan, you have nothing to say. I was still talking last night. The man's words are reliable, and the sow is still on the tree. Look, isn't this here? Oh, fortunately, I didn't believe you Otherwise, I will definitely be very disappointed right now."

Zhao Dashan was gagged and wanted to argue anxiously, but Li Hongmei waved his hand grandly, "Okay, okay, if it's not, let it go, I'll think about it now. Sigh, the outside world is still too much. Far away."

Seeing his wife's sad eyes, Zhao Dashan fell silent.

Finally, he asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Daughter-in-law, do you really want some foreign seed plants?"

"Isn't that right? If some foreign things can be introduced, then we can buy more land and become a big landlord. If we can introduce a common plant, let everyone in our village It's better not to go hungry."

As for keeping the whole world from starving, she doesn't have this great ideal.She is now focusing on the people in this small mountain village, and it is an excellent thing to keep the people in the village from starving.

Li Hongmei regarded this matter as a temporary dream.

After all, going abroad is a hassle.For this reason, she rejected the idea.

But the opposite was Zhao Dashan's reaction.

Ever since he knew that she liked high-yielding plants, especially the plant called heartburn, he had been extraordinarily silent.

Several times, when Li Hongmei sighed at the plants, he would feel guilty.

Until, on this day, Li Hongmei sighed again in the field.

"Whenever I can find some plants with a yield of four to five hundred catties per mu. Sigh, heartburn is a good thing. It's good to bake and eat, and it's also good to make dried sweet potatoes. Unfortunately, it didn't circulate. Woolen cloth."

"Daughter-in-law... you want that so much?" Zhao Dashan asked with flickering eyes.

Li Hongmei scolded him angrily, "You're asking nonsense again, who doesn't want high-yield things, as long as there are, of course I want them."

Zhao Dashan looked around, as if he had made a major decision.

"Daughter-in-law, I can find such a high-yield product for you, and it may take no less than 20 days."

"Ah? Ha, are you kidding me? I've been told by foreigners that I won't be able to return within two months. Besides, this is as long as you don't get lost. What's the matter with you going back and forth for 20 days?"

Even if she was killed, she wouldn't believe it.

However, Zhao Dashan looked around and grabbed her, "Daughter-in-law, come here and let me tell you, I have something that I have never told you."

"what?"

Looking at Zhao Dashan's serious face, Li Hongmei teased him, "I said Dashan, what secrets do you not tell me? Don't tell me, what big secrets do you not reveal? Tell me, I Listen to what is the big news?"

Zhao Dashan took a deep breath before lowering his voice.

"Daughter-in-law, let me tell you, in fact, there is a road leading to the land outside our home from the mountain behind our house."

"Ha, don't talk about it. I heard that there are continuous mountain peaks here. If you go deeper, there will be a cliff. Where can there be... No, are you serious?"

Li Hongmei blinked, looked at Zhao Dashan's serious eyes, and then became serious.

Zhao Dashan nodded affirmatively, "In fact, my grandfather was able to escape here from a foreign country because he found this road leading to here. In other words, my grandfather passed this road from outside. I came here by a secret way. And my father, it is said that there was a time when my grandfather secretly went to find something to eat outside, and when he came back, he picked it up halfway."

Li Hongmei stared blankly at the man in front of her.In the end, he gritted his teeth, "Okay, Zhao Dashan, don't tell me about such a way. You are really good at hiding it. Otherwise, you can take me to the outside, and I want to go outside to see it too." .”

However, Zhao Dashan, who was always obedient to her, rejected her decisively at this meeting.

"No, foreigners are very xenophobic. Once they find you, a foreign woman, entering their territory, they will end up being robbed and used as slaves. If there are few people, I can still protect you well. If there are many people, I will not be able to protect you at that time. "

This time Li Hongmei didn't dare to make random demands.

After all, people want to save lives.

Moreover, she also believed that what Zhao Dashan said was true.You know, people of many races are indeed very xenophobic.In particular, the foreigner and the Yan dynasty have been hostile for hundreds of years.Therefore, it is understandable for foreigners to hate the people of the Dayan Dynasty.

"Well, it seems that you are the only one to go. It's not too long to make a round trip for 20 days. But, is it safe for you to go?"

Li Hongmei would rather Zhao Dashan not go if she would cause endless trouble just because she went out for a trip.

"I will protect myself. This kind of thing will definitely not be disclosed. Moreover, that way is very secret. It can be said that people outside except our family don't know about it. And this is what we don't want to disclose. The reason why I would rather be poor than go out and do business.”

Li Hongmei narrowed her eyes slightly, and grabbed him, "Besides, you and your father are not too stupid in these years, they are quick in doing things, and they are even more diligent in hunting. In other words, you have made a lot of money. Are you all Did you quietly take it back for the outsider to use?"

She strongly suspects that there are relatives of Zhao Dashan's grandfather in this story.

Sure enough, what Zhao Dashan said next somewhat confirmed her guess.

"My dad was picked up by my grandfather. People in the village don't know at all. They only think that my dad is my grandfather's biological son. In fact, my grandfather is just a lonely old man. He committed a crime there and returned home. No, but I am also concerned about my relatives at home, so I go back to visit every year. After my father was raised by his grandfather, the biological grandson that my grandfather has always cared about has become the responsibility of my father and me..."

Hearing this, Li Hongmei understood.

"So, you have earned money. In fact, there is a lot of money that is going to be given to the foreigner's family on the other side."

Zhao Dashan nodded heavily, "Actually, I'm planning to go there this time too. It's just a little earlier, so... I may have to take some of our family's money in advance..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Dashan was very embarrassed.

This home is not very good, and now it has got rid of the problem of food and clothing.

It could be that, when he passed by, he would take away some money.I always feel like I'm running out of money.

"What's going on over there? Why do you have to help all the year round?"

Zhao Dashan smiled shyly.

"Over there, there was a man who fell off his horse and his legs were always disabled. Afterwards, we sponsored him to marry a wife and have children. We thought that when the man's child grew up, we could leave it alone. But who You know, something happened to that person’s child again. Up to now, the child is lying on the bed half dead. Originally, the life of a foreigner is difficult. If we don’t help, their family of five may not be able to survive..."

Well, this is a typical family of poor disabled people, no wonder it costs so much money.

Li Hongmei also had a headache, but she couldn't ignore it.

"Okay, you have been managing people, so let's do it. However, I don't think it's an option to keep giving money like this. It's better to let them do something. For example, you can let them collect some seeds , let’s provide them with rewards. For example, you can also ask them to collect some other animal skins and other things, and then you can bring them back from there. Let’s exchange some more money, and with this money, come again Give them the capital to live, etc... In short, you go over there and have a look, play by ear."

Zhao Dashan nodded, and he also knew that it is not an option to keep funding like this.

Now he is the eldest son of the Zhao family, so he can still help.

If one day, I am gone, who will support them at that time.For this reason, let the family find some way of survival, this is the ultimate solution.

The matter was discussed, and three days later, Li Hongmei prepared some things for Zhao Dashan.To the outside world, it is said that Zhao Dashan went out to find work.

This kind of thing is also common in the village.

After all, just pointing to some work in the field can't support so many people.For this reason, if you want to live better, you have to go outside to find work.

As the season gets warmer and warmer, spring plowing has also begun to get busy.

Transplanting rice seedlings, plowing the land, planting seeds, all kinds of work continued.

Because of this, Zhao Dashan's departure did not arouse the concern of the villagers.

Man'erniang stuck in the field every day, she felt that if the boss was so nice, if he didn't work hard, he would be sorry.

After the seedlings in the field were planted, they were busy digging holes in the stalks and starting to light soybeans.

"These soybeans can grow up by giving them some small nests and throwing in some plant ash."

"It's good, it doesn't take up space."

"The warming of the season here is a bit slow. In our hometown, the soybeans would have been planted on the stalks in advance. The seedlings were transplanted at the end..."

As long as Manerniang mentioned something she was interested in, she would talk a lot.Those eyes that have been suffering all the year round are now full of energy.

In modern times, people like Man Erniang must be scientific research enthusiasts.

"Now we have planted soybeans and seedlings. Next, we have to plant corn. It's a pity that these corns are all small. It would be better if they were bigger."

In modern times, we are used to seeing corn that is still as long as a palm. Looking at the corn here in this era, it is completely horrible.

Here, the corn that grows extremely well is only a little longer than a small palm.

If the ground is thinner, it can only grow a small piece.

From this, the importance of seeds is also highlighted.

"Oh, it's all here. We also want to increase production, but apart from fertilizing the fields to make them fertile, there's not much else to do."

"No, there is a way." Li Hongmei definitely denied Man Erniang's words.

"Oh, how do you say that?" Man Erniang frowned, under the sun, the way this woman raised her eyebrows was actually quite pretty.For a while, Li Hongmei looked dazed...
