Happy peasant girl

Chapter 30
I don't know what will grow out of the things I bought for 200 taels, but Lin Qingfei still thinks it's worth it to receive such attention from Lin Qingxi.

"Xi girl, it's time to eat!" Lin Qingfei took out some bean dregs cakes for Lin Qingxi to eat.

"Third brother, didn't you go to the town to sell tofu?" Lin Qingfei is now in charge of the tofu business in the village and restaurants in various towns. Recently, Lin Qingxi seldom sees him.

"Grandpa has already asked me to hand over the business to Uncle Rong. From today onwards, I will go home and help!" Lin Qingfei said with a smile.

Lin Qingxi nodded with a smile, no matter what the reason for the adult's decision, she can't get involved now, and she didn't see the loss and dissatisfaction from Lin Qingfei's face.

Under the locust tree in the field, Linqingxi had lunch.After eating, she and Lin Qingfei sat under the tree and chatted.

"Xi girl, you are so busy with the work in the field every day, can the embroidery of Fuxiu Zhuang be driven out? Or, the third brother here will plant it for you!" Lin Qingfei found that everyone in the family had gained weight , only Linqingxi's complexion has improved a lot, but he is still very thin.

"It's okay, third brother, I won't delay the two matters. By the way, third brother, I have a question for you!"

"Ask, what's the matter?"

"If our village wants to buy land, do we need to find someone? Also, how does this land deed work?"

"You want to buy land?"

Didn't grandpa give her three acres of land?Why does my sister still want to buy land?Lin Qingfei was very puzzled.

"Third brother, can you promise me not to tell others first, and then I will tell you the reason!"

"You little slicker, the third brother promised you not to tell others, tell me, why did you buy the land? Is it for your family?"

"Hmm - yes or no, I want to buy the [-] mu of purple land behind our village, and buy it in my own name. I don't know how much it will cost?"

As soon as Lin Qingxi finished speaking, Lin Qingfei stood up abruptly. He really didn't expect that what Lin Qingxi wanted to buy was the unlucky purple land.

"Xi girl, tell me why?" After these days of training, Lin Qingfei has been able to quickly keep calm when faced with emergencies.

"Third brother, I know that those purple lands are unlucky things here, but they are not like this, and I don't know how to tell you. The old man said that those purple lands are not only not bad, but also very good. It can grow very good things and produce high yields.” In this situation, Linqingxi moved out the old man who didn’t exist.

"Really?" Lin Qingfei obviously didn't believe it.

"Really, I can grow good things on the purple land, but I want to make this ten thousand acres of purple land my own before I grow things." Lin Qingxi said carefully.

"Are you afraid that if you grow high-yield things, the purple land will be snatched by others, so you should act first?" It's not that Lin Qingfei insisted on thinking of his eight-year-old sister like this, but he never put her in front of her. Treated like a child.

Lin Qingxi bit her lower lip and nodded. The difficult experience in the modern entrepreneurial period has long taught her a truth, and she will never suffer a loss if she is prepared.

"Then the high-yielding things you mentioned, are they grown from the seeds bought from the bearded businessman?" Lin Qingfei asked again.

Linqingxi shook his head firmly. Tomatoes and peppers are just vegetables, and even if the yield of corn is more than 1000 catties per mu of land, it is incomparable with purple potatoes and sweet potatoes. For the Chu State at this time, it is a good thing that can solve the hunger problem of the people more than wheat and rice.

"What is that?" Lin Qingfei remembered clearly that he bought three kinds of seeds for 200 taels, could Lin Qingxi think of other ways?

"Third brother, come and see!" At this moment, Lin Qingxi pulled Lin Qingfei to the sandy field full of potato seedlings, "These are purple potatoes and sweet potatoes, and purple potatoes are very suitable for growing in purple soil. , and sweet potatoes are very suitable for sandy land, although it is not clear how much an acre of land yields, but it should be much more than wheat and rice."

Then, Lin Qingxi told Lin Qingfei that the leaves of these purple potatoes and sweet potatoes can be eaten and used as feed, and the ripe fruits can also be eaten, and the yield is conservatively [-] catties per mu.

"Girl Xi, let's stop talking nonsense. Tomorrow, I will ask my mother to take you to the Goddess Temple!" Lin Qingfei heard Lin Qingxi tell him that purple potatoes and sweet potatoes produce [-] catties per mu or more. At that time, his first feeling was that his sister was crazy.

"Third brother, calm down and think about it carefully. When did I say nonsense to you, you have to believe me!" Lin Qingxi knew that this impact was great for Lin Qingfei, but among the old Lin's family members Only Lin Qingfei can let her speak out with confidence.

Lin Qingfei was stunned for a long time by Lin Qingxi's arm, until he took a deep breath, looked at Lin Qingxi and asked again solemnly: "Xi girl, you really didn't lie to Third Brother? Also... the old man told you?"

"En!" Lin Qingxi nodded heavily.

When the two brothers and sisters came home, Lin Qingfei was still a little dizzy. When eating, he almost ate the food up his nose. Ye Shi and Mu Shi thought it was because Lin Qingfei was too tired recently. Let him rest well.

Lin Qingfei slept for two days during this rest, one day he lay on the bed staring at the roof in a daze for a whole day, until the third morning, he didn't get up, followed Lin Qingxi to the field for the first time.

"Third Brother, have you... figured it out?" Lin Qingxi's heart was also on the rise these days, rather than worrying about Lin Qingfei's disbelief, she was more worried that he would tell other family members that he couldn't help it for a while.

"Well, girl Xi, ask third brother to help you!" Lin Qingfei decided that if Lin Qingxi could really grow something with a yield of five thousand catties per mu, even if it was weeds, it would be a great event in Chu State .

"Third brother, thank you!" Lin Qingxi knew how difficult it was for an ancient man to recognize such a thing beyond his imagination, Lin Qingfei didn't think she was really crazy, she was really grateful and fortunate from the bottom of her heart .

A month later, Lin Qingfei sold the two pieces of embroidery that Lin Qingxi had embroidered to Fu Embroidery Village, and 500 taels of one piece of embroidery was given to Mrs. Mu as Lin Qingxi's dowry in the future. And Lin Qingxi's second piece of embroidery that no one knew about sold for 500 taels, Lin Qingfei took it to the Yamen.

As early as a month ago, Lin Qingfei found out clearly that reclaiming wasteland was originally free of charge, and now the Holy One encourages the people to reclaim wasteland and farm land, and also exempts the land tax for three years on the wasteland, so it is very simple to go to the county government to apply for a land reclamation title deed. As long as the master and the county magistrate say a few good words, the land deed can be completed on the same day.

But even though the [-] mu of wasteland that Linqingxi wanted to buy was land reclamation, she had to buy it first and then reclaim it. In peacetime, it was not the same thing to reclaim land first and then apply for a title deed. Fortunately, what she wanted to buy was purple land, so the price would be very cheap.
