Bailuyuan, I am Bai Xiaowen

Chapter 176 The Wind
In Chang'an and Zishui, Bai Xiaowen had many industries.

A village near the provincial capital.

On this day, a young man was in the field.

In the bright sun, under the sunshine, he sprinkled some chemical fertilizers on the ground.

There is a lack of fertilizer in the field, and farmyard manure is often not enough.

"What are you doing?" Seeing his son in the field from a long distance away, he didn't know what he was doing.

When I got closer, I realized that he had sprinkled something on the ground.

If someone else had caught him and asked him clearly, it would not be easy for him to joke around.

The young man replied: "A kind of fertilizer, bought in Zishui, said to be able to increase the yield of the field."

"let me see."

I took the chemical fertilizer over and saw small white particles. I don't know what it is. After smelling it, it still felt a little pungent.The long ones are as crystal clear as rock sugar.

I'm still going to put it in my mouth to taste what it tastes like.

The boy quickly stopped him: "Father, you can't eat this."

It's no better than plant ash, this one can eat dead people.

"Okay, it's up to you to toss."

Before long, all the fertilizers were evenly spread on the ground.

Farmyard manure exists, but very little.

In the village, farm manure is also a precious resource.Mainly from livestock manure.

Only those with pigs and mules and horses in the family can have enough manure.

However, these dung are all raw dung and cannot be directly applied to crops.

It also needs to be ripened to become nutrients that plants can absorb.Convenient and efficient without chemical fertilizers.

Basically every household has a pile of manure, one layer of manure and one layer of soil, the mat is flat, and it is piled up to mature.After a period of time, it will be dug up and refurbished, and then retting for a period of time, it will become mature manure with a certain degree of fertility.

Put dung in three years to make soil, and soil in three years to make dung.The retting manure should be transported to the field in time, otherwise, the fertilizer efficiency will be greatly reduced.In terms of convenience, chemical fertilizers are better.

In the whole village, there are only one or two horse and mule farmers.

All the excrement will become farmyard manure. In addition, the soil from the stove and the ash from the kang hole are all high-quality farmyard manure.

Cow and horse dung on the road are treasures.

Everyone in the farm households knows this truth. There are many people who are diligent, and they have to get up early to pick up dung, and it will be useless if they are late.

A fertilizer factory was built in Zishui.

It has great convenience.

He also saw the changes in Zishui with his own eyes, so he bought these fertilizers and found that they were not very expensive.

The amount of chemical fertilizers is relatively large.

Go put some fertilizer on those jujube trees and so on.

One month later.The dates are now ripe.

These jujube trees are considered the common property of the village.

All the people in the village came.

All the people gathered at the entrance of the village and brought all the equipment.

The village chief began to speak: "This year's fruit is growing very well and we have a bumper harvest. We have started harvesting dates. You can eat them or take them. You can eat as much as you want. The rest will be collected and sold in the provincial capital."

"Village chief, you don't need to explain, we all know."

As a rule, one-third of the people in the village will eat these dates.

The remaining two-thirds were taken to the provincial capital to sell, and all the money was kept in the village as public expenses.

Anyone in the village who is in difficulty can withdraw from this money.

Everyone arrived at the jujube forest. Although there were only a few dozen trees, they looked very spectacular. They were covered with large jujubes, which looked very mature.

Take it to the provincial capital, sell what you can sell, and eat what you can't sell.

In fact, the village head is still a little confused. Compared with previous years, he matured half a month earlier.

Time is very important.

It's not like their village is the only one with jujube trees, almost all other villages have them.

There are also many people who take it to the provincial capital to sell.

But now, it has matured ahead of time, and has gained an opportunity in time, so it can be sold more easily.

There are chaotic crowds everywhere.

There are twenty trees, and there are more than ten people standing under each tree.

The jujube trees are very tall, and some of them are very skilled and can climb up in no time.

Some were still a little scared under the tree, he didn't know if he could go up.

"This year's dates are really big, much bigger than those in previous years."

Eating dates on the tree.Even if you are a snack person, today is the happiest day for the children in the village. You can eat jujubes as much as you can.

Many young people climbed up the tree.

About two hours passed, and all the dates fell from the tree.

"It's all started to put in baskets. Don't throw the broken ones in, eat them yourself."

These are collected and sold in the city.

They all started to get busy.

Seventy or eighty baskets were quickly filled.

They were all a little shocked, how could there be so many, two or three times more than in previous years.

"A bumper harvest, the ancestors have appeared."

"It's all the blessings of the ancestors."

"Village chief, after calculation, it is estimated to be three to four thousand catties in total."

They also ate a few hundred catties by themselves, and ate with their stomachs open.

If they can all be sold, it will be a huge sum of money if they can be sold for more than ten taels of silver.

This year's volume has directly doubled.

Everyone's face was filled with joy.

With so much money, on average, everyone can get a few dimes.It's all extra money.

Seventy or eighty baskets of dates began to be moved.

Basically three or four people carry a basket together.

He was very excited, as if he had inexhaustible strength.

One basket after another was moved away.

"Village chief, take a look at the appearance of these dates. I'm sure you can sell them all."

The village head also thinks that they can sell all of them because of the time advantage.

more doubts.

This year's dates are growing faster and are much larger.

This is more than 4000 kilograms of dates. Their town cannot digest it, so they have to take it to the provincial capital to sell it.

There were more than seven and eighty baskets, and three bullock carts were used to pull them.

The three cars went to the provincial capital together.

All the dates were loaded on the car.

"Village Chief, be careful along the way, and go back early."

The villagers have great trust in the village chief.Now it is the kind of big family system, the village head, the patriarch, etc., speaking is very useful.

It would be difficult to sell more than 4000 kilograms of dates in one day, but fortunately, we have experience selling dates in previous years. Even if we can’t sell all the dates, we can bring back the remaining ones, and the villagers will eat them themselves. Just drop it.

A total of ten people went there.

After all, there are seventy or eighty baskets, more than three to four thousand catties, and a little more people are needed to move them.

Soon arrived in the provincial capital.

I’m still thinking about how the dates are so good this year.

Only the young man who bought fertilizer in Zishui knew that he went to see his own land.Spreading chemical fertilizers caused the cucumbers to grow well.This jujube is also related to fertilizer.

"Go and meet the shopkeeper Zhang of the fruit stall."

With more than 4000 kilograms of goods, I went to find some acquaintances in the provincial capital.The village chief took some dates and went into the fruit shop.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, the dates are ripe this year. I'll pull them over for you first."

As the village chief spoke, he quickly handed over the sample dates in his hand.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, look at these dates. It's super crispy. They're big and sweet. Eat one."

Shopkeeper Zhang was indeed attracted by the dates in the village chief's hand, so he took two and ate them.

"Why did you come here so early this year? These dates are really good, better than those in previous years. How many did you bring?"

Hearing this, the village chief felt relieved, "Three or four thousand catties."

"Give me five hundred catties, a dime a catty."

The village chief said: "Shopkeeper Zhang, look at the dates we brought here this year, which are about twenty days earlier than the normal season. There are still very few on the market. How about you add some more? One cent?"

The village head also wanted to win more benefits for the villagers.

This year's fruit is really good, but next time it may not be so good.

Shopkeeper Zhang thought for a moment and realized what the village chief said was right. He added a little more money and said, "Okay, that's the price, it's five hundred catties."

Five hundred catties is almost the limit, and I dare not ask for more.

Although the dates are indeed good, if the quantity is too large, I am worried that they will not be sold for a long time.

The villagers and others began to unload the goods, unloading more than a dozen baskets and placing them in Shopkeeper Zhang's shop.

I went to shopkeeper Wang not far away, and the village chief went to negotiate a peace, and was asked for another six hundred catties, but I still sold it at the same price.

After a long time, [-]% of the volume was sold.

Somewhat worried, "There are still seven or eight hundred kilograms left."

The village head was relatively calm, "It's good enough to sell so much, the worst thing is to take the rest back to the village and share it with everyone."

With so many dates, several people began to eat them themselves.

The village chief didn't stop them, and they couldn't eat much.

"We sell it on the side of the street. We sell as much as we can sell today, and take all the rest home."

There were more than a dozen or twenty baskets, and each person took two baskets and stood on the street for sale.

The guy who bought the fertilizer simply talked about it.

"Village Chief, the dates are growing very well this year. It may have something to do with the fertilizer we bought."

"Fertilizer? What is this?"

"It is a kind of fertilizer that can increase the yield of crops. A month ago, I spread chemical fertilizer on my land, and I spread the remaining fertilizer on the jujube trees. The cucumbers and loofahs on my land are long. They are all very good, better than usual. So I think it must be related to chemical fertilizers."

"This matter is very important. Go and buy some fertilizer."

The provincial capital is for sale.

Many factories in Zishui provide goods of all kinds in the provincial capital.

Two baskets of dates weighed more than a hundred kilograms, so it might be difficult to sell them in half a day.

Or maybe the dates were selling really well, and they sold two kilograms in about ten minutes for a total of three cents.The retail ones are a bit more expensive.

At this rate, even if it gets dark, it may not be sold out.

The young man who had been to Zishui began to hawk, "Take a walk and look around. If you don't want to buy, you can take a look. Take a look and walk around. If you don't want to buy, you can take a look."

"Well said, whether you want it, watch the excitement, buy it or not, see whether it's good or bad, whether it's worth it, and see if it tastes good!"

Village Chief: "Xiaoqiang, where did you learn these words?"

The village head was rather shocked.

This guy was grown up by him. He was really good, but he didn't think he was the one who came up with these words.

"Village Chief, I learned these words in Zishui."

In Zishui, Bai Xiaowen taught many later generations how to do business.

Nature is useful.

A series of selling jingles kept coming out without stopping, but the voice would be a little hoarse.

But the effect is excellent.

After a while the place was full of people.

"Brother, how do you sell these dates?"

"It's only [-] pounds, and it's very sweet."

"Give me five catties."

"Alright, I'll put it on for you."

The villagers were a little happy. There were a lot of people around, and several of them said they wanted to buy it. According to this progress, it might be sold out in half an hour.

"Everyone can pick and taste whatever they want, it doesn't cost money if it's not sweet."

The villager has full confidence in his own dates. He has eaten so many of them and knows that they are very sweet.

Yelling hard, the selling speed is very fast.

The quality of the dates itself is very good, otherwise, no matter how much you shout, you may not be able to sell them.

"It's exactly one catty, uncle, wait a minute, I'll give you a dozen of these together."

Put the last remaining bit on him.

In just over an hour, both baskets of dates were sold out.

"We're sold out here. Our dates are sweet and easy to sell."

The villagers were full of doubts. They were really sold out, and the business was not so easy, even if it was a small vendor's business.

They took out all the money from the sale, and the reality was in front of them, so they couldn't help but not believe it.

It's better to sell it, and it saves effort.

These two baskets weigh more than 100 catties, and they were all picked.

After they were sold out, the two empty baskets only weighed a few catties.It is also easy to carry.

As a result, other talents sold it for less than ten or twenty catties.

"That's all you sold?"

The villagers were a little confused, why Xiaoqiang had sold out all the same dates.

Xiaoqiang stepped forward and said, "Uncle, you can't do this, you have to know how to shout."

He can see that you and you are boring, it's not good to do business like this, you can't wait for customers to come by themselves.You have to shout, if you don't shout, the stalls here will have no soul.

He immediately let go of his voice and shouted: "Come and see, come and see, freshly arrived, cheap and delicious dates."

"Big, sweet, fragrant and crispy dates. Come and take a look. They only cost [-] kilograms, but they are so fresh."

Another series of shouts were said out loud.I learned it all in Zishui.

The villagers were all shocked. Xiaoqiang still had such a side, and finally knew how he had sold all the dates just now.

The effect was immediate, and people soon surrounded him.

Customers are all the same, and they all like warm and generous sellers.

Like a mourning portrait, the difficulty of selling things has increased several levels.

"One cent and three cents, one pound, right? Give me two pounds."

I didn’t try it, but I just looked at it carefully and felt that this jujube was very good.

"Uncle, give this guest a name quickly."

The two don't know how to yell, but they still know how to do things.

Quickly wrapped two catties for the customer.

With his yelling, the speed of buying and selling was several times faster.

Others also tried to yell a few times, but it sounded very lame.

"You, relax, don't be afraid. There is nothing to be afraid of, no shame. No one knows you in the provincial capital."

"Speak up, yes, that's it."

He's teaching you how to yell.

Being able to yell is also a skill.

"We sell dates, jujubes that are fragrant and sweet." Under Xiaoqiang's guidance, the shouting became louder and louder.

Village chief: "Xiaoqiang, take them to Zishui and buy some fertilizer."
