Chapter 647 Harvesting Corn ([-])
She didn't directly talk to those people about leaving some of the seeds for the villagers, not to mention that she still has some in her space, but the corn she took back is in her house anyway, so there is no need to worry.

But those tender ones can be kept and eaten slowly.

Bai Shixiao strongly agreed. Before, it was golden at first glance, but after walking in, he found that many of them were blue.

After he carried the corn to the kitchen, he went to the field again, and only after Su's cooked the corn did the group come back together.

All of them are listless, they are not as energetic as they were when they first entered the village.

After coming back and washing his hands, after eating the corn, an adult from the household department came to Feng Yichen and Bai Xi to discuss.

"General Feng, I just heard that people can be hired to do farm work on the way to the official. The people we brought have never suffered, and the work is really slow.

We agreed to pay money to ask the villagers to help, do you think so? "

He was a little ashamed when he said it himself. As an official in the same dynasty, General Feng led people to prevent and control floods and could do it himself without being tired or suffering. The people he brought could not stand it within three hours.

However, most of the people who came here were civil servants. Even if the guards they brought were used to living a good life in the capital, how could they bear this? They would rather pay their own money than drill in the corn forest.

Feng Yichen nodded, and asked Bai Xi, "How do you think it should be arranged?"

"Well, since adults are willing to pay, my father can go to other people's homes later to see if he can invite someone.

However, everyone has to help threshing the corn that was broken today, so that part of it can be dried tomorrow. "

Compared with the current group of people, Bai Xi is more at ease when working in the village. She didn't mention it before, but she asked them to ask for someone.

The adult repeatedly promised that threshing is better than in the field, and promised that the threshing could be handed over to their people.

On the one hand, they want to finish their work and return to Beijing quickly, and on the other hand, they want to watch the corn and worry about any damage.

When Bai Shixiao went out to invite people, Bai Xi made a point of saying, "Father, please ask more people. It's best to finish those jobs tomorrow."

"I understand." Bai Shixiao replied and went to Jin's house and Li Zheng's house first.

The second time, most of the people from the village came, and they almost harvested the corn in the morning. Mr. Zhou and the others looked at the pile of corn and wanted to cry. No matter what they did, they were slow.

In the afternoon, there will be no need for so many people to go to the field together, and some will stay at home to help threshing. After all the work is done, it is not dark yet, Master Zhou and others finally breathe a sigh of relief.

In the end, people were arranged to stay in the village to guard the corn, and the rest of the people would rest in the posthouse. They would take turns to guard the corn before it dried, for fear that there would be a little less.

At night, Sifang's family sat around and soaked their feet, Bai Shixiao stretched vigorously and yawned.

"I feel more tired these two days than I used to work hard. The corn is finally harvested, and those high-ranking officials should leave quickly. I'm not used to being stuck at home."

Su said again: "I don't think those people want to stay with us. As long as the corn is dried, they won't have time to run away, so they won't stay here."

"When Mr. Zhou and the others come tomorrow, I'll pick some red sweet potatoes that were first transplanted for them to eat."

Normally speaking, red sweet potatoes will not be eaten until September, but she plans to go to the space to get some out so that these officials can pass the news to the emperor's ears.
