Peasant Girl's Plane Trading

Chapter 103: Chapter 102
After taking back all the vegetables in the field, the Wang family has been idle for a few days. The taro in the field can be harvested again. This taro was discovered by Wang Tingting and Qian Sanduo in the back mountain. Now almost every household in the village Some are planted in the yard, and the taro can be harvested now.The ten mu of taro of the Qian family needs a lot of people to work, and everyone is willing to help with the work. They all want to see how the yield of this taro is, and whether it is as good as the Qian family said.

Except for the Qian family who planted 10 acres of taro, only the Wang family planted two acres in the whole village. Therefore, in the past two days, the Wang family has been busy making dried bean curd and started digging taro instead.Although the two families planted taro on reclaimed wasteland, the wasteland chosen by the two families was not too barren, and taro did not require very high soil, so the yield this time was very amazing.

Because the seeds are all fine varieties provided by Wang Tingting, the output is much larger than the expected output before. Those villagers who were invited by Qian Sanduo to help dig taro are all feeling after digging that this kind of food is really good. The yield is high, and there is no need to take care of it. Even wasteland can be used, which is a blessing for farmers. What's more, Qian Sanduo also said that this kind of taro is purchased at 2 cents per catty, which is simply more expensive than growing vegetables. Much better deal.

Vegetables still need careful care, weeding, catching insects, etc., but taro is much easier to take care of, and the harvest of taro is faster. When it is mature, it can be completely dug out, unlike vegetables. stubble.Moreover, the value of taro is higher. Perhaps the price of taro and vegetables is similar in modern times, but here, taro can fill the stomach and is easy to store, so the value is naturally higher than that of vegetables.

And judging from the yield, the yield of taro is much higher than the yield of an acre of vegetables, so those who came to help in the Qian family's taro field were very excited and wanted to grow taro at home. When the taro is harvested, you can buy some as seeds.

"Uncle Qian, can you sell some of your taro to us? We plan to grow taro next year. We didn't have so many seeds before, so we could only plant them in our own yard. Now that your family has harvested so much, we thought it would be I can't buy some." Aunt Wang said.

"Of course there is no problem. I was just about to talk to the village chief about this matter. Since our family has grown such a big harvest in this taro, it will not be bad if everyone grows it. This taro can be used for both food and vegetables. , It’s a good Dongxi. Even if you don’t like to eat it after planting it, you can sell it to me. I promise that it will be 2 cents a catty, so that you will never have to worry about it. This taro is a wild plant, and there may be other places. , but it may be that you don’t know that it is edible, so you may not have many people in the town to recognize it in the past two years, but it will be fine in a few years, and it will be sold to those merchants who bought it. At that time, the price will definitely be higher than the price I gave. After all, I am directly contacting the merchant who bought the vegetables before. The price cannot be very high. 2 cents per catty is the limit, unless the value of taro is discovered by more people .” Qian Dahai said.

"We are already very satisfied with 2 cents a catty. What's more, we can't sell it for money. We can also eat at home. Although the life of every household is better now, it is still impossible to let go of our stomachs. If taro If the output continues to be like this, then we will be able to eat enough every day, and the rest can be exchanged for a sum of money. There is nothing more cost-effective than this. Thank you very much, otherwise we would not know that there is such a thing. Good stuff. In the past, even if we saw taro on the mountain, we would not recognize it, and would only think it was a weed.” Aunt Wang said.

Thanks to the hard work of many laborers in the village, the Qian family’s taro basically has been harvested, and the output really surprised everyone. After collecting it, I found that the yield per mu of land was basically no less than 6 tons. What kind of concept is this? You must know that the grain yield in ancient times was extremely low. One mu of rice only produced 200 catties, and one mu of wheat was more than 100 catties. .

This is determined by the limitations of seeds in this era, farming methods and other factors. Therefore, when a grain species that can produce 6 tons per mu appears, you can imagine everyone's excitement.Why does everyone seem to work very hard and have a lot of fields, but they just can’t get enough to eat? In addition to the fact that the food in this era is not oily, lacks nutrition, and needs to eat more, there is another important reason is the amount of food per mu The output is so low that although the land seems not to be small, the grain harvested is not enough for the whole family, old and young.

Of course, the yield of these refined grains is low, and the yield of some coarse grains is relatively high. For example, brown rice, such as sorghum, corn, etc., are much higher than the yield of wheat and rice. This is why ordinary people like to treat themselves The reason is to sell the fine grains grown at home and buy coarse grains to eat, otherwise I will not be able to eat enough.

It is impossible to be full even with coarse grains, two meals a day, and most of the time it is clear soup with little water, no wonder the people present are so excited.Even though Qian Sanduo bought vegetables before, which improved the living standards of everyone in the village, but firstly, everyone didn’t grow much, and secondly, the rural people had a sense of crisis and would save money, so they naturally spent on food. It hasn't changed much, but with this taro, there will be absolutely no starvation. Not only can I eat two meals a day, but I can eat three meals a day without any problems.

"I'm going to call the village chief. This taro is very important to our Qinghe Village. With this, we don't have to worry about being hungry anymore. I didn't expect that the weeds that grow casually in the mountains are such treasures. Before we How come no one noticed, otherwise Qinghe Village would have benefited a lot." Said an uncle next to him.

After the uncle finished speaking, he quickly went to the village head's house, and the people around him spontaneously went to inform other people in the village, and they were very conscious that they didn't have to wait for the village head to let everyone call someone.

Soon the villagers of Qinghe Village came to the wasteland where the Qian family planted taro, and what they saw was a large pile of harvested taro. This was the first time that everyone saw so much grain. There is so much grain produced in ten acres of land, it is amazing, no wonder they are all called here.
