Chapter 186 Harvesting Beetroot
The tenants of the Zhu family and the Li family had agreed at the time that they would all be food, and now that the Mu family has one more child, especially two and a half children, if they can eat freely, then no amount of food is really enough.

So Shen Jiayan went to the two to buy a few hundred catties of millet and some coarse grains, and converted them into cash.

The Li family and the Zhu family couldn't be more grateful. Although the price is similar to the price of a grain store, there is an unwritten rule when selling grain in a grain store. If you are kind, you will deduct one hundred catties of grain and keep nine. For some, it would be nice to keep [-]% for you.

It couldn't be more true than Shen Jiayan, who didn't play tricks on the scale at all.

The two people are very grateful, especially Quan's. With Shen Jiayan spending money to buy their family's food, the loss is much less. In addition, the matter of helping to sell the mushrooms, at least the mouth of the sister-in-law was blocked, so that they How many times can I pull Li Goudan out and talk about it.

So when I heard that Shen Jiayan wanted to go to her natal home and buy all the ripe beetroots in her natal village, I was overjoyed and then came back to my senses: "Sister of the Shen family, why are you buying this? If you I like to eat, and my family grows some. If it’s not enough, I’ll go back to my mother’s house and ask my parents for some. It’s worthless, and it doesn’t cost anything. How can I spend money to buy it? Aren’t you embarrassing me?”

Shen Jiayan had no choice but to explain that it was useful, and she wanted a large quantity, she wanted all the beetroots in the whole village.

Although Quan's didn't know why Shen Jiayan bought this, and he wanted so much, but he heard that he wanted it, so he couldn't help but be happy.

After all, her natal family planted a lot of these beets. Apart from the high yield of leaves and the ability to keep people from starving to death, this beet has never been sold for money.

Among other things, her natal family has a large population and there is not enough food to eat. They grow the most beets in the village. Every year, they rely on beet leaves and coarse grains to cook them into a paste to keep the family from hungry.

Not counting the leaves, just those beetroots, are they good or not, and they weigh a few hundred catties, right?Those beetroots were also cooked and eaten in previous years. If they can be sold for money, no matter how much they are, they can also buy some food to go home, right?

What's more, if she came forward to go back and talk to her natal family, and then let her natal family come forward, if she really took away all the beetroots in the village, wouldn't the whole village have to accept her natal family's love?
And her natal family also has to accept her love?When the time comes, won't she, a girl who is out of marriage, return to her mother's house with her head held high?
Thinking about it this way, why is Quan's dissatisfaction?So happy!

He immediately patted his chest and promised that it would be done for her.

Quan's is a carefree person, once she made up her mind, she explained to her mother-in-law, packed up a few clothes, and went back to her mother's house to handle the matter.

Li Goudan's grandma is also a smart person, knowing that their family owes the Mu family, especially Shen Jiayan, a lot of favors, and now that they can repay them, how can they not be happy?

Let Quan's rest assured, it's okay to stay at her mother's house for a few more days, it's best to help Shen Jiayan take back all the beetroots, and it's best to come back together.

Quan's hurried back to her mother's house without even bringing Li Goudan with her.

Within two days, Li Goudan's cousin, Stinky Dan, came to Dongguang Village to report, saying that his aunt Quan's family had settled everything, and asked Shen Jiayan when he would go to their village to harvest beetroots.

Shen Jiayan had visited the village a few days ago, and the leaves of the two-year-old beets have now withered, and it is time to harvest the beets.

Immediately ask Stinky Egg to go back and tell the people in his village to dig out the beetroots in the field, and she will bring someone to pick them up tomorrow.

When Stinky heard this, his brows were filled with joy. He heard his aunt say about Shen Jiayan's behavior. Although he is a girl, he always keeps his word.

Immediately, I will return home to tell my family and the village the good news.

But when he reached the door, he couldn't help turning his head back, and asked a bit shyly, "Auntie, I, can I ask, how much do you plan to charge per catty for this beetroot?"

Shen Jiayan knew it already, and when he heard Stinky asked, he smiled and said: "It's also the first year we've collected this stuff, and we really don't know what to do. It's the same as harvesting mountain goods. It depends on the quality. The beetroot is big, Those that are in good condition and not damaged will be paid two pennies a catty; those that are not in good condition, thin and damaged, may be paid a penny per catty, or not.”

"If we think that the beetroot in your village is good and sweet after we buy it this year, we may increase the price next year depending on the situation."

The joy on Stinky's face could not be concealed. Before he came, the family had actually discussed the price issue many times, and the village people have always been most concerned about this.

They speculated at home for a long time, reckoning that this beet is not worth much, except for their village, other villages also grow very little. Although they don't know what Shen Jiayan buys it for, they think the price will not be too high. It's amazing.

But if this is the case, everyone is also happy. The whole family made an estimate this year. It is estimated that there are three to four hundred catties, which can be sold for three to four hundred yuan, and coarse grains can also buy hundreds of catties.

I never thought that it could be sold for two big money, and it doubled in an instant!

The stinky Le Taotao returned to the village with the good news in a daze.

When the villagers heard the news, they immediately exploded.

People who planted a lot last year and can earn at least a few hundred catties this year are all smiling; those who planted little last year, or did not grow last year and only planted this year, feel like they are mourning, feeling like they have lost hundreds of millions at once!
Some people are already thinking about it. If it is true that Shen Jiayan will charge this price, they will definitely have more varieties next year. Doesn't it mean that the price may increase next year?
The people in the village didn't sleep well all night, some were happy and some couldn't sleep.

Anyway, the next day, almost everyone in the village went out with dark circles under their eyes. While digging beetroots, they kept watching to see if Shen Jiayan came.

Not long after breakfast, Shen Jiayan brought Mu Tianze and Da Zhuang together.

He went to the whole family first, the whole family had been waiting for Shen Jiayan, when he saw her from a distance, he came up to meet her, and welcomed her into the yard.

The family’s yard is not too big, probably due to the large population. In addition to the main house and the east and west wing rooms, many small houses have been built along the side rooms and the walls. The yard is still covered with mud. How long is the beetroot.

There is almost no place to stay.

Quan's mother-in-law welcomed him into the main room, served herbal tea, and said that she was sorry, that there was nothing good at home, and that she was neglecting the distinguished guest.

On the one hand, people called the old man back.

When old man Quan came back, other people in the village who had heard the news also squeezed into the family's small yard behind them.

Everyone chattered around and asked Shen Jiayan, when will they start harvesting their beetroots?Is it really like what the stinky egg said, 2 pennies for good quality and 1 penny for poor quality?

There is also a thoughtful question to Shen Jiayan, what do you use their beetroot for?

For a while, the room was noisy.
