Chapter 64 Times have changed
Since Bai Taotao decided to buy this barren hilltop, she naturally wouldn't care too much about the price, and she wouldn't lose even one tael of silver per acre.

In addition, she asked Aunt Tan to walk around for a while in the morning. The land on the barren hilltop still covers a large area, and only a very small part is occupied by stones.

After buying this hilltop, it will be very good for growing fruits or grains.

"Uncle Li Zheng, it's okay. I have a plan for this barren hilltop. Please ask Uncle Li Zheng to find some people to measure it and see how big the hill is."

Seeing that Bai Taotao had said so, Chen Demin couldn't say anything more, so he could only agree: "Okay, then I'll find someone to measure it."

Taking advantage of the fact that some of the villagers had returned from the fields, Chen Demin called a dozen people to help measure.

This measurement work still takes a lot of time, after all, this barren hill is not small.

By the time Chen Demin came to find Bai Taotao with the measurement book, Bai Taotao had already woken up from a long nap.

At this time, she was drinking milk tea and eating peanuts with frosting.

"Daughter-in-law Youyi, this barren hilltop has been measured for you. The total is a little over three hectares, so I'll give it to you as three hectares." Chen Demin said and handed Bai Taotao the small notebook in which he had taken notes.

Bai Taotao took the small book and looked at it briefly. The records were very detailed, so she said: "Okay, three hectares is three hundred acres, and one tael of silver per mu is three hundred taels."

After saying that, Bai Taotao looked at Aunt Tan beside her and said: "Aunt Tan, go and get three hundred taels of silver notes and give them to Uncle Li Zheng. In addition, take some scattered silver together, and Uncle Li Zheng will go to the county to handle it. The title deeds need to be sorted out.”

"Yes." Nanny Tan agreed and walked into the room.

When he came out again, he had three more banknotes and a small cloth bag in his hand.

The small cloth bag contains some scattered copper plates for dotting.

Aunt Tan handed the banknotes and the small cloth bag to Chen Demin. Chen Demin looked at Bai Taotao and did not refuse the broken silver she gave. After all, he had already cleared the land on the barren hilltop and rounded it up.

The money gained from selling the hills and wasteland does not belong to him alone. It belongs to the entire village, so it is not good for him to add money to do things by himself.

Looking at the banknote in his hand, Chen Demin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, times have really changed.

In just a few months, after this girl came out of the Chen family, she went from having nothing to buying wasteland, buying barren hills, doing business, and opening a workshop.

This girl may have a greater future in the future. If she becomes successful, the villagers will also benefit to some extent.

"Sure, I'll make another trip to the county in the afternoon to help you get the land deed on this barren hilltop done as soon as possible." After Chen Demin finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave.

"Uncle Lizheng, please wait a moment." Bai Taotao stopped him quickly, then turned around and took the garlic-flavored peanuts that had just come out of the pot from Granny Tan and handed them over, "Take some of the peanuts that have just come out of the pot and taste them. Taste it, it’s just right to drink a little wine.”

Originally, Chen Demin was ready to refuse, but when Bai Taotao said that it would be appropriate to drink a little wine, Chen Demin couldn't help but take the peanuts with his hand.

Now that he had taken it, Chen Demin stopped being polite to Bai Taotao, so he smiled and said, "Uncle, I won't be polite to you anymore. These peanuts smell delicious. When your processing workshop is built, the business will be done." big."

"Then let me borrow some good advice from my uncle."

After Chen Demin left, Bai Taotao took a sip of milk tea and said, "Now that I have bought wasteland and a hilltop, I really want to buy a few more shops and houses."

After the words fell, Aunt Jin on the side said quickly: "That's not right. Madam, you have to be more careful. If you want to buy a shop or a house, you have to wait a little longer."

Bai Taotao smiled and said: "Don't worry, I know it well. Otherwise, I wouldn't have no assets in hand now."

Nowadays, her current business is a braised food and braised food business.

Braised food is just a small business, and all you make is small money.

Although she made a lot of money from braised food, because she didn't do it for a long time, she wouldn't be able to buy a mountain. She could still spend hundreds of taels to buy a shop and a house in the wasteland.

Where does the money come from? Will it not become the object of suspicion?

If you want to buy a shop or a house, you should at least wait until next year.

It’s really hard to have money but not be able to spend it freely.

***
After buying wasteland to build a food processing plant, Chen Defu led a group of people to open up wasteland early every day in the next few days. Bai Taotao was still the same as before. She went to the county to deliver goods in the morning, came back to rest after delivering the goods, and went to her own wasteland for a walk in the afternoon.

I will always have Grandma Jin by my side.

She is still struggling like this now that she is one month old, and she also wants to go out more often, so that it will be easier for her to give birth later.

She had never experienced giving birth in her previous life, and she was still a little nervous since she was about to give birth.

However, Aunt Jin would teach her some experiences from time to time, so she didn't need to be nervous.

Slowly Bai Taotao can also relax a little.

As for her peanut business, because the villagers are still harvesting peanuts one after another, and the processing workshop has not yet been built, she can only guarantee to make two to three hundred kilograms a day and send them to the teahouse.

The teahouse's peanuts are also sold to its own store first, and then the more abundant ones are wholesaled and sold to other stores.

Now everyone is waiting for Bai Taotao's workshop to be built soon.

In September, Boss Zhu's small noodle stall was officially handed over to the Baichuan couple, and he accompanied his wife and children back to his parents-in-law.

After Bai Chuan took over the small noodle stall, fortunately, he had to learn for a while. When he took over the first two days, although he was a little busy, fortunately there were no accidents.

It's a bit tiring, but I also earn a lot.

Once you get started slowly and thoroughly in the future, you won’t be so tired.

Thinking about the money earned in a month, the couple is full of motivation.

As for Bai Taotao's food processing workshop, when it was almost ready to open in the wasteland, she arranged for workers to start construction.

The unfinished wasteland will continue to be opened, and it will not affect the construction of the food processing plant anyway.

In mid-to-early September, every household in every village begins the lively autumn harvest.

After months of hard work, there has been no rain this year. I thought this year’s autumn harvest would be a failure, but fortunately, the water in the rivers still lasted until the autumn harvest.

We won’t let the people’s work go in vain this year.

When the peanuts were harvested, the faces of the villagers were filled with the joy of the autumn harvest.

Taking advantage of the nice weather, everyone hurriedly washed and dried the peanuts after picking them.

Chen Youzhou is responsible for purchasing the dried peanuts.

The price is the same as the price sold to the grain store, so the villagers who save money send it all the way to the grain store.

As for the defective products, Bai Taotao also said that when everyone has free time, they can peel out the peanut kernels and then select the good ones, which can be sold to her.

The villagers were even more happy.

No one wanted the defective peanuts from previous years. They peeled them themselves and gave them to the elderly at home to drink and eat.

But there are quite a few every year.

Now that Baitaotao is buying peanuts, they can sell some and eat some of the ones that are really hard to sell.

This year's peanuts are equivalent to making some more money.

After the peanut harvest is finished, we will be busy harvesting rice again in mid-September.

Thinking about rice, Bai Taotao remembered that she had read in a book before that it seemed that two crops of rice could be grown.

Commonly known as regenerated rice.
