Old Zhou Tou lit a cigarette, took a few puffs and called Zhou Dalang, "You and the second child will go to your uncle's house overnight, um, don't let your second and third uncle know, just find your uncle and ask him How is the wheat harvest this spring, in fact, we should have gone there two days ago."
Old Zhou Tou muttered a sentence and said: "Ask clearly, if the seeds are on the other side, you can tell him about it quietly. In the morning, pick the best wheat and send it. Don't send too much. One person Just pick one and bring it."
"The second uncle and the third uncle..."
"Let your uncle go, he knows what to do." Old Zhou Tou said: "You enter the village before dawn, try not to let the people in the village see it, it's okay if you see it, just say your mother is recovering Yes, some of your uncles come to see at home..."
Zhou Dalang nodded.
Old Zhou said: "Remember, the wheat you bring must be good, and you have agreed with your uncle. It is used by Mr. Bai in our village to make seeds. If it is not good, it will be our old Zhou's family that will hit you later." face. Second child, you go and stare more."
Zhou Dalang and Zhou Zhoulang nodded together.
Old Zhou Tou took a puff of cigarette and said, "I'm not worried about your uncle and uncle, it's your third uncle who hiss..."
Old Zhou felt that his waist was turning blue.
Mrs. Qian withdrew her hand from his waist, and old Zhou Tou didn't dare to speak ill of his brother-in-law again. He coughed lightly and waved his hand: "Okay, let's go."
Xiaoqian immediately went into the kitchen to prepare torches for the two brothers, which was directly related to her natal family, and the torches she made were fast and strong.
Mrs. Feng followed to help, feeling extremely envious. Her natal home is far away, and she usually only goes back to visit during Chinese New Year and Double Ninth Festival.
She carefully glanced outside, and asked Little Qian in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, you said that if my parents come to exchange food..."
Xiaoqian lowered his voice and laughed: "Don't worry, mother has already prepared. There are three sacks of wheat in the room of your elder brother and I, but they are all drawn in circles."
Feng's eyes lit up, and the movements of her hands became faster. She lowered her voice and said, "Then I will go back to my mother's house in a few days."
It's not easy for He and Fang to go in and help with their children, but their hearts are also moved.
When they changed the wheat seeds last year, they also did not expect that the wheat seeds would be so good, so although they told the family, the family did not come to change them.
The reason for the He family is that they are far away, while the Fang family is because they have just got married and the two families are not that close.
Moreover, the Fang family, like the He family's Feng family, felt that the old Zhou family was being polite, who would deliberately carry a large bag of wheat seeds to exchange for nothing.
If you want to exchange wheat seeds, it is best to give a catty or two when you visit relatives. It is best to try planting in the corner of the wheat field.
The second, third and fourth daughters-in-law of the Zhou family were also very regretful. They didn't pay much attention at the time, and who knew they were so slow.
At this time, there were not many people in the village lit up, and everyone began to wash and go to bed.
Zhou Dalang and Zhou Zhoulang took the torches and went out to Qianjia Village.
It was much farther from Qili Village to Qianjia Village than Dali Village, and it took at least half an hour to walk at night.
Lao Zhou waited for his two sons to go out before looking at Man Bao, and asked, "Man Bao, is this okay?"
Man Bao: "...Father, you asked me only after you called out the eldest brother and the second brother, isn't it too late?"
Old Zhou was a little embarrassed, pressed her head and said, "Dad, don't you want to confirm with you?"
Man Bao said: "Don't worry Dad, as long as the seeds are fine."
Old Zhou Tou was still a little worried, "Will Mr. Bai use up all these seeds? Don't let him see too much in the end and don't want it."
"No way, he doesn't just use it for himself, but also sells it outside, so don't worry, as long as the seeds are good, he will take as much as he comes." Man Bao said: "As long as it is new wheat seeds, if it is not In the end, it was our family's reputation that was ruined."
Old Zhoutou wasn't worried that his uncle would cheat, ahem, strictly speaking, even if he cheated, brother wouldn't cheat.
Of course, Lao Zhoutou said that this is an inappropriate metaphor.
Old Zhou Tou got a positive answer from his daughter, and chatted leisurely, "Master Bai is going to sell it again. The price is sky-high. How much will he sell it for?"
"I guess it's one hundred and eighty Wen," Man Bao said, "This is the price Shan Bao and I set at the beginning."
Old Zhou gave her a thumbs up, and said cheerfully: "You guys really don't know how much money is expensive, and you dare to ask for any price."
Old Zhou asked with a smile, "One hundred and eighty Wen, who will sell it?"
At this time, Mrs. Bai was also asking Master Bai this question.
She didn't know about the business of her husband and three children from her son until just now. Her first instinct was that the master was using the family's money to tease the three children.
Because a bucket of wheat at one hundred and fifty cents is a sky-high price in her opinion.
In the end, Master Bai said that the price was actually cheap.
Master Bai said with a smile: "Yizhou is in the midst of a waste of time, especially this year and next, so there is no shortage of places for the wheat seeds in my hands."
"How much can it sell for? Is it really like what they set, one hundred and eighty coins a dou?"
Master Bai laughed and said, "The three children are a bit timid, so the price is a bit low."
Mrs. Bai couldn't help but exclaimed, "Is this price still low?"
Master Bai nodded, lay down on the pillow, and said comfortably: "I plan to sell it to Wu Fang at a price of two hundred coins a bucket. As for how much Wu Fang sells outside, that is his business."
Mrs. Bai: ... Well, now she believes it, the three children are still a little timid.
Mrs. Bai couldn't help but said: "Didn't you say that these wheat seeds have never been grown in other places, don't you know if they are suitable for the water and soil? Just sell them like this..."
"Aren't all wheat seeds transported from this place to that place? Whether it can be suitable for the local water and soil is something that people who buy seeds should consider. We just need to ensure that our seeds are new wheat seeds and that they are in Qili Village. Just a good harvest." Master Bai said: "As for other problems, I have to take care of them myself."
"In this world, you need to take a certain amount of risk in everything you do, just look at the big and small." Master Bai said with a smile: "Look at the three children who bought wheat on credit with their aunt and came back to exchange wheat seeds, thinking that they didn't take any risks. ?"
He laughed and said: "The risks they take are nothing to us adults, but they are too big at their age. They are lucky, this wheat seed is indeed good, otherwise they would have smashed the wheat in hand."
Mrs. Bai laughed and said, "Can the grain be thrown into your hands? Just sell it."
