Chapter 104 Harvesting Cotton
Seeing that Auntie had eaten the cake, Yaya turned around with a smile and picked up another piece of cake. Just when she was about to put it in her mouth, she accidentally caught a glimpse of her brother looking at her eagerly.

Yaya glanced at the cake in her hand and then at her brother, and felt that her brother must also want to eat it, but she was too embarrassed to say it, so she turned around and stuffed it into her brother's mouth, "Brother eat~"

Bai Molin, who was suddenly stuffed with cakes by Yaya, was flattered. He had no interest in these cakes. He was just thinking about how to deal with these thank you gifts. He didn't expect that this little girl, Yaya, would take the initiative to feed him. It's not in vain that he loved her so much before.

Seeing that her brother was eating too, Yaya thought of her father in the kitchen again, and went to the kitchen with a piece of cake in one hand.

"Daddy eat this~ This is delicious~ It must be delicious!"

But I gave Bai Zhiqing a joy. I thought that the ancients would not deceive me. My daughter was really a caring little padded jacket. She happily hugged Yaya and kissed her little cheek.

"Hee hee~ Dad eat~", Yaya stuffed the cake into Dad's mouth, and then bit the cake in the other hand.

As soon as I tasted the pastry, Yaya's eyes lit up instantly, it was delicious~
She likes this beautiful brother who brings delicious cakes to her family~

……

In the blink of an eye, the end of the month, cotton has been spawned from time to time for nearly a month and it is ready to be harvested.

With the blessing of supernatural power, each cotton plant has produced more than [-] cotton bolls, and a single plant can receive nearly two kilograms of seed cotton.

However, cottonseeds account for a high proportion of the weight. After the seeds are removed, the net weight of each cotton plant is less than a pound, but this is already a very high yield. so high.

A total of 70 cottonseeds were planted before, but now the net weight of the harvested cotton is just over ten catties. According to the market price of seven taels of silver per catty, these few plants can be sold for [-] taels of silver!
Although there is a lot of silver, it is not what Bai Molin values. What he cares more about is the cottonseed from these cotton bolls.

A cotton boll has 30 to 50 cottonseeds, a plant with a hundred cotton bolls can yield thousands of cottonseeds, and fifteen plants can harvest nearly [-] seeds. These are the real money. s things.

Looking at the large pile of cotton in the side room, the family felt much more at ease. When this batch of cotton was planted, the family would have a stable livelihood.

Bai Molin has a long-term vision and doesn't just stare at cotton. He understands that once a product is mass-produced, it will lose its price advantage. In the future, his family can not only grow cotton, but also have to start the entire industry chain.

Even in the prosperous state of China, food, clothing, housing, and transportation account for the largest proportion of residents' consumption. In the future, his family will not only grow cotton, but also build a factory to weave cloth and even make clothes, but things have to be done step by step.

Moreover, he is well aware of the truth that a big tree attracts the wind, and it is not appropriate to spread the industry with great fanfare before there is enough self-protection.

At present, only cotton is grown, and we strive to make the cotton industry bigger and stronger within a few years, so that the people of Dongcheng County and even the entire Daqing Dynasty can afford cotton.

While Bai Molin was contemplating, Yaya was already happily walking around the cotton pile. She planted all these cottons~ She knew that these cottons were old and valuable, and they could be exchanged for many, many delicious ones~
Holding the cotton, Yaya grinned and said, "Father and mother~ Look, there are so many cottons~ There are so many cotton seeds, we can plant more and more cottons~ la la la~ ~~”

Bai Zhiqing praised the venue and said, "My family's Yaya is amazing, so much cotton is due to Yaya! Wait until the next time I enter the city, Dad will buy Yaya delicious food!"

Yaya was so proud of her grandfather's praise, "Hee hee~"

Bai Molin came back to his senses and looked at the cotton on the ground, and said, "It's a pity that this batch of cotton can only be used for his own use, otherwise it would still sell for a lot of money."

This batch of cotton whose source cannot be identified cannot be presented to people. The two adults in the family also understand this truth, but Yaya is a little disappointed. She still wants to sell the cotton to buy candy for people to eat~
As soon as she heard her brother say that cotton was not for sale, Yaya immediately stopped circling and looked at her brother seriously with a small face, she wanted to listen to his explanation.

Yaya's expression is straightforward and easy to understand, Bai Molin can see it at a glance, and coaxes: "These cottons are spawned by Yaya's ability, and Yaya's ability must not be known to outsiders, otherwise the bad guys will snatch Yaya away. ."

When Yaya heard that a bad person would take her away, she immediately shook her head, "I won't sell it, I can't sell it." She didn't want to leave such a good father, mother and brother~
Liu Shiyu glanced at his son angrily, and when his elder brother actually frightened his younger sister, he hurriedly coaxed: "Yaya, don't be afraid, no one can snatch you away when your mother is here. But your elder brother is right, you are very capable. Can't be exposed."

Seeing that A-Niang said the same, Yaya nodded her head seriously, "Yaya knows."

Bai Molin continued: "Now that we have harvested cotton and got tens of thousands of seeds, we still have some silver taels on hand, and we can plan to buy land to grow cotton."

Now this family has a lot of cash in their hands. Before saving Xiao Jingyun, they not only received a hundred taels of silver reward, but also received a batch of thank you gifts. Bai Molin suggested selling all the thank you gifts that are not needed for the time being, and got another nearly 300 taels of silver.

Although Bai Molin has high requirements for food, clothing, housing, and transportation, he knows that with the current strength of his family, he can't afford the life he wants.

It's just right now to buy land.

As for how much land to buy, of course, the more the better.

However, Bai Zhiqing still asked Yaya, an "experienced old farmer", for advice. He wanted to know how many acres of land could be planted with this batch of seeds.

"Yaya, Dad asked you, how many cotton plants per acre is suitable?"

An acre of land?

Yaya felt that the question asked by her father was out of line. One mu of land looked so big, but she didn't know how big it was.

Unable to answer the question, Yaya hurriedly stretched out her little hand and scratched her little head.

Seeing Yaya's action, Bai Zhiqing knew that the baby girl was in a hurry, pulled down Yaya's little hand, and said, "Don't worry, Yaya, it's Dad who asked the wrong question. Dad means that if you don't use Yaya's difference Yes, how far is the distance between the two cotton plants to be most conducive to plant growth?"

As soon as she heard Dad's new question, Yaya's eyes lit up and she raised her little hand high, she would know this question!

Yaya thought for a while, walked a few small steps on the ground, pointed to where she was standing and said, "Dad, it's just so far."

Looking at the distance of Yaya's gesture, Bai Molin quickly calculated that the number of cotton plants per mu of land should be around [-].

"Grow two thousand cotton plants per mu. We have nearly [-] cottonseeds on hand, but I recommend planting only ten mu this year."

Liu Shiyu looked at Bai Molin suspiciously, why didn't so many seeds be planted?Are you able to make more money?
