Lingquan, a peasant girl: the bully in the whole family is just me

Chapter 63 Can't Cross the Bridge?

"lose weight?"

"Yes, sweet potatoes are a good product for weight loss."

Yan Yuanhao felt even more unreliable, "Isn't it food? How can I lose weight?"

No matter how you think about logic, there is a problem.

"I can't explain a sentence or two, and you will know when the time comes." Yao Lan looked at those green things and her eyes were about to glisten.

Why didn't she think of growing sweet potatoes earlier?Eating sweet potatoes is easier to lose weight than eating rice.

Now she has lost one hundred and sixty catties. In order to reduce the weight of this fat body, she endured not eating and had to work more, running up and down the mountain and in the city, fighting against herself.

If you eat sweet potatoes in the future, maybe you can lose weight faster.

"How many sweet potatoes can that one mu of land produce?" Yan Yuanhao continued to ask, if it is true that food can be grown on barren land, why has no one discovered it before?

Yao Lan thought about it for a while, and the yield of different modern varieties varies greatly. She is not sure how much the wild one can produce, so she casually offered a [-]% discount, "It must be four to five hundred catties."

"How much?" Yan Yuanhao doubted his ears.

Yao Lan looked at you, why are you so ignorant, "Four to five hundred catties, if you are lucky, it is possible to weigh a thousand catties."

"Really?"

"Three or four hundred catties must be available."

"That's a high yield." Even if the best paddy fields are carefully cultivated, one mu of land is only three hundred catties.

Yao Lan chuckled, "Didn't you promise it to my father? What? I don't believe it?"

Yan Yuanhao's indifferent face was full of disbelief now, and his voice changed a bit, "Do you know what it means to be able to produce four to five hundred catties of grain per mu?"

"What does it mean?"

Yao Lan thought about it seriously, "It means that one mu of land can feed more people, and the people don't have to suffer from hunger anymore."

"Yes."

"When the food in the land can feed more people, more people will be able to do other things instead of farming. They can serve as soldiers and do crafts. More talents from all walks of life will flow in. Improve production skills, people's lives will be richer, and national power will be more prosperous."

Even if it is coarse grains, sweet potatoes are much easier to swallow than sorghum, beans, bran, etc., and people who can eat a full stomach have a lot more choices.

Yan Yuanhao's heart trembled uncontrollably. It was really hard for people to see how a country girl could have such insight.

"Is this thing really that good?"

"The land is right in front of you. It's only been a few months, so just look at it carefully."

Yan Yuanhao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "My lady is right."

Yao Lan patted him on the shoulder, "Of course what I said is right, you are the lucky star of our family, just shine on our family well."

Yan Yuanhao's whole body tensed up from her patting, what kind of lucky star?Don't you really judge misfortune by looking at your face?
Three days later, the millet in the third uncle's house had been dried, and Yao Xiangbei helped him put it into the grain bag and weigh it again.

"It's not good, it's not good, Uncle Yao is not good." Someone from the village hurried over and shouted.

Yao Xiangbei looked at him, it was Tang Zhong, the son of Lizheng's family, who must have run all the way, gasping for breath, "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Tang Zhong took a breath, and looked at Brother Yao Xiangbei as if he saw the backbone, "My father is not allowed to cross the bridge in Yangjiacun."

"what?!"

"What happened? Why are you not allowed to cross the bridge?"

Tang Zhong told the simple story of the matter, probably because the work in the field was finally finished, his father was going to the city to ask about the tax bank, and by the way, he also helped some villagers send the extra millet to the city to sell for money .

There is too much food to be pulled by bullock carts, so it is impossible to walk on the single-plank bridge of Yao's family, and must detour to the stone bridge of Yang's family village.

"The bridge was built by people from the three villages. At first, it was Yangjia Village who paid a little more money to build the bridge in their village. Normally, people in the village would not go there when they entered the city. Unexpectedly, they turned their faces. "Tang Zhong was angry when he said it.

His father is also Li Zheng anyway, and he doesn't show any affection in the Yang family village, it's simply too deceiving!

People in the village would call Yao Xiangbei's family if they had disputes with other villages. Among other things, their family was strong enough to be shocking.

When a few people arrived, the people on both sides were about to fight.

"Yang family, don't go too far. Our Tangjia Village paid money when we built this bridge. How can we not keep our promises when we said good things at the beginning?!" Li Zheng was angry and anxious. Things are not over yet, but even people are blocked.

Yang Family Village is also there, "Brothers, it's not that we broke our promises, but that you have gone too far."

"How did we go too far?!"

"This bridge is the head of our Yang family. Your Tangjia Village only gave you 20 taels of silver. Even if you give one or two taels of silver every year, now that the bridge has been trampled by people in your village for 20 years, it is still enough. "

"Now that 20 years has come, if you think about the bridge in our Yangjia Village, you will have to pay for it."

"That's right, this bridge was built by our Yangjia Villagers. Why do you people from other villages step on it for nothing? Look at the things you pulled. They cost one or two thousand catties. If you don't leave tolls today, don't even think about crossing the bridge. "

This year's grain harvest in Yangjia Village is serious, and every household doesn't know what to do. Seeing people from Tangjia Village dragging a cart of grain past, everyone is jealous.

"We paid for it!" Lizheng's neck was red.

"That's right, we all paid for it, and you Yang Family Village doesn't keep promises!" Tang Zhong also shouted in a rough voice.

"Why don't you keep your promises? Didn't you let you go for 20 years? You are addicted to taking advantage and want to continue to take advantage of our village?"

The people of Yangjia Village are very united at the moment. As long as they can dig out a bag of grain, they will earn it. Can they not be united?
Lizheng was also helpless, if he hadn't set up a bullock cart, he turned around and went back to the village to put his things before coming back, how could he be so passive?
Not being able to cross the bridge is now a second priority, and the people of Yangjia Village are obviously eyeing their food.

"Brother Yao, what should we do?" Li Zheng looked at Yao Xiangbei.

"What should I do?" Yao Xiangbei is not a reasonable person. Thinking that he was cheated by Yang Yuming's family and the gift money was less than a tael, he didn't look good towards Yangjiacun, so he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight, "These rascals It's just itchy skin, just clean it up!"

"Yes, Daddy, I'll help you!" Yao Sanshun also rolled up his sleeves, ready to beat someone at any time.

The people in Yangjia Village were still very proud of the Yao family, and the father and son looked so frightened that everyone couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Yang Family Village was biting the bullet and said: "What do you want to do? We have hundreds of people here, if you dare to do something, we will not be polite."
