Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 222: Harvesting Sweet Potatoes

 Sweet potatoes are coarse grains that cannot even be compared to sticks and are worthless.

You can still sell some, subsidize and subsidize the household, but this sweet potato basically cannot be sold. After all, you need to use money to buy food, and you will not buy this difficult thing to eat.

Occasionally, people will go to towns or counties to sell some, but most of them are people who are greedy for roasted sweet potatoes or something, so they don’t buy too much. Sweet potatoes are heavy and require a long trip back and forth. The money from the sale is not enough even for the hard work.

 So no one is buying these sweet potatoes, and most of them can only be kept at home and eaten slowly, so as to save some good grain and exchange for some money.

 But Sumulan is harvesting sweet potatoes right now. I really don’t know what to do with these sweet potatoes...

“I guess it’s about drying the sweet potatoes.”

I don’t know who said something, and the villagers suddenly realized.

Similarly, Sumulan often sells food in the town, and among the food, there seems to be things like dried sweet potatoes.

Sumulan’s family also grows sweet potatoes. I guess they have almost enough sweet potatoes at home, so they need to collect some sweet potatoes to make dried sweet potatoes.

Thinking of this, the villagers went to see Sumulan and waited for her to tell them the price of the sweet potatoes.

If the price is right, it would be good to get some money back from the sweet potatoes.

 “I’m going to harvest some red-flesh sweet potatoes from this sweet potato, as long as they are clean, intact and not bad.”

Su Mulan said, "As for the price, I also inquired about it. The price outside is about one penny and three and a half kilograms, and four kilograms. My price here is one penny and three kilograms, which is higher than the price outside. "

"But I may have more requirements here. It's not like just throwing the sweet potatoes here and that's it. If you turn around and find that there are bad ones in the sweet potatoes, you have to dig out the bad ones. You can't just pick the good ones. If someone wants to sell them, For sweet potatoes, just come and find me at home after lunch, and you can weigh them and pay on the spot.”

"But let me tell you this in advance. My yard is not big, and I have collected a lot. I am afraid that it will go bad if it is piled there. I cannot collect that much every day. I guess I will collect it every two or three days, which is still a good harvest." First come, first served. When selling sweet potatoes, it’s best to come to my door and ask me in advance, so as not to have to bear the burden of carrying it. I’ve collected enough, and it’s not good to collect it. It’s not good to not collect it.”

Some time ago, when the courtyard wall was being repaired, many people came to help. Su Mulan also experienced the benefits of helping each other in the village. Buying sweet potatoes this time was a way of making some money for herself and then bringing some benefits to the people in the village. Meaning, it can be regarded as her little feedback to the village.

 Hence why Sumulin has set a higher price than outside.

As for the ugly words coming to the front, it can be regarded as expressing one's attitude, so as not to cause any trouble when the time comes.

As soon as Su Mulan finished speaking, the villagers began to discuss the matter in twos and threes.

Three kilograms of sweet potatoes for one penny is indeed higher than the price charged in other places, and sweet potatoes are not easy to sell in the first place. Now someone is charging a high price for it, and they are people who know the basics. It is indeed very rare. .

 As for the matter of choosing, it is actually not a problem.

 Where can I buy something without being picky? Even if the sweet potatoes are sold to outsiders, if the sweet potatoes are bad, others will come to ask for a refund. This is a common thing.
