Chapter 253 Not most of it, but all!
Shen Zi'an found Li Shi and told Li Shi about Su Zhi's idea. Li Shi also thought it was feasible. He believed in this sister-in-law very much, and he thought that if the vermicelli could really be made, it would definitely be sold to Quanliang Kingdom and become a delicacy loved by everyone. Su Zhi's cooking was That must be delicious.
Shen Zi'an and Li Shi found Li Zheng together and told him about it.
Li Zheng was surprised when he heard it. He thought, "Why do they want so many potatoes and sweet potatoes?"
"There are many people in the village who want to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes. Did you say you want to collect potatoes and sweet potatoes at this time? What do you want that for?
Aunt Jinhua poured two bowls of water for the two of them, sat aside and said, "Your two families are doing well now. Even if you want to collect some food, you should buy some rice, flour and buds. You are hungry. Why do you buy those potatoes and sweet potatoes? Besides, why do you want to buy these? Do you have to wait until then? At that time, the food price will definitely grow. I don't know how many people will not be able to eat. I'm sure I can't afford those rice noodles. I can only eat potatoes and sweet potatoes. They won't sell them to you. You can still have enough to eat that. If you sell it to buy rice noodles, you won't have enough to eat.
Li Shi said, "Li Zhengbo, you also know that this potato can grow well without much water, and the amount is also large, which must be much more than the weight of rice harvest. It is also stronger than the bud valley. Isn't it?"
Li Zheng nodded and said, "That's for sure."
Li Shi clapped his hands and said, "That's it. At that time, they will leave part to eat, and then sell part to the Zi'an brothers, and take the silver money to buy some corn flour to eat. It's better than eating those potatoes and sweet potatoes all the time, right? This is also the difference. Brother Zi'an said that he also didn't want the villagers to starve at that time. If he collects sweet potatoes, the price will be higher than usual.
I was thinking about it. It seems to be the same. The yield of sweet potatoes is large, which is better than growing buds and rice. If you leave part of it to eat and sell part of it to exchange for rice noodles, it's really good.
"But I'm just afraid that the price of rice noodles will rise at that time."
Li Sheng beside him said. He interrupted at this time, and he didn't want to let his father bear it when something happened. If this person is really hungry and red-eyed, he doesn't care what's right.
Li Shi said, "That's right. If there is a severe drought, the price of food will rise at that time. This is the time to persuade the villagers to grow sweet potatoes. If there is a severe drought and the price of grain rises, and the villagers are unwilling to sell their sweet potatoes to us, we will not accept them. The villagers will not be hungry. And if God is merciful at that time. It rained on Yu Niangniang, and the families who planted potatoes can also sell them to us. At that time, they can sell a silver coin and then exchange for food. Isn't that a good thing?"
Aunt Jinhua listened and laughed and said, "That's not the case! In the family, son, this is a good thing. If the villagers know that they have planted sweet potatoes, they don't have to starve if there is a severe drought, and if there is no severe drought. They can also sell these for money, and they will definitely be willing to grow sweet potatoes! This is better than nothing."
Li Zhengyi heard that this is the case. Originally, everyone was hesitating whether to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes, because they were afraid that they would really planted these, but it would rain. At that time, they not only lost seedlings. Potatoes and sweet potatoes can't be sold. Now that someone has bought these, what are they afraid of?
"Haha, Dad, it seems that we are really a little too worried, so we got involved!"
Li Sheng laughed aside.
Li Zheng also laughed and thought about it. Shen Zi'an and Li Shi both said they wanted to buy these things, and they were even bypassed. It's really a little embarrassing. However, he was very happy to think that there might be fewer people in the village, and his eyes were brighter when he looked at Shen Zi'an and Li Shi. But it's even more strange why they buy those potatoes and sweet potatoes.
"Zi'an, why do you buy those things?"
Li Zheng asked, he was not worried that Shen Zi'an would regret buying these things in the end. He knew Shen Zi'an too well. He was a responsible child. He would never go back on his word. It's just that he is also more curious about the use of potatoes and sweet potatoes.
Shen Zi'an thought of what Su Zhi said, and she said that she could reveal to Li Zheng that they were used to make food.
"Uncle Li, my daughter-in-law wants to use potatoes and sweet potatoes to make a kind of food."
Aunt Jinhua was interested and said, "Your daughter-in-law is going to make delicious food again?" That must be good! Her skillful hands, I'm so much older than her, I'm convinced! It's just that what do you eat with so many potatoes and sweet potatoes? It's done. Aren't you afraid of breaking it? Can you sell it?"
Shen Zi'an said, "My wife said that the thing can be stored. As for whether it is sold or not, I haven't sold it yet. I don't know, but I believe in my daughter-in-law."
Li Shi said aside, "My sister-in-law's craftsmanship is the best. It can definitely be sold."
Aunt Jinhua nodded and said, "I believe what you said. Then there will be so many potatoes and sweet potatoes, and it will definitely take manpower to make that food, but remember to call me. I also made some oil and salt money myself.
Li Zheng had already told his daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, so that they had nothing to do with Su Zhi, saying that she had many ways to do it, and she could also get some light at that time.
Aunt Jinhua naturally listened to it. She knew that the tree root daughter-in-law and Li Qing's daughter-in-law had made things with Su Zhi to sell. I heard that they all made money. She also sounds a little envious. She didn't want to miss it this time. She wanted to buy potatoes and sweet potatoes from the whole village. It must be a big deal.
Zhao Feng also listened for a while and said, "Call me too, but don't go out with me. By the way, brother Zi'an, do you want to build the new house in your garden as a workshop?
Shen Zi'an nodded and said, "That's to be a workshop. My daughter-in-law has long thought about doing some small business. Originally, the potatoes and sweet potatoes we grow are enough, which is enough for us to make food to sell. After all, it's the first time to do it, and I don't want to do too much. I want to make a name for myself and do more. But we didn't expect the drought, so we wanted the villagers to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes. If they want to sell them then, we will take them.
Li Zhengyi listened and said, "Zi'an, you and your daughter-in-law are good-hearted people. I thank you and the couple for the villagers. Don't worry, they all have to remember your feelings!"
Li Sheng also said, "Yes, Zi'an, you have a good heart, and your sister-in-law has a good heart. No wonder God cares for you. Not only is the holy beast willing to follow you, but also the dug water eyes are not the same as our river. If our riverside village passes this time smoothly, you will definitely be more blessed by God. Needless to say, Dad, let's grow potatoes and sweet potatoes in the paddy field at home!"
Li Zheng nodded, thinking that his son's brain was finally working. He knew that he had played a leading role, and he also knew that he had a good relationship with Shen Zi'an and others.
In fact, Li Sheng has always had a good relationship with Shen Zi'an and Li Shi, but he spends less time in the village and has less contact. Now he is willing to have a good relationship with the villagers, which is a good thing. Li Zheng also plans to let his son inherit his position in the future!
Zhao Feng said with a smile, "Then I have to learn how to cook that food with my sister."
Li Shi thought to himself that you can't learn this. There is a secret recipe. Can you give it to someone else if you want to sell it to the whole country? However, he didn't say anything. Let Su Zhi and the others talk about this matter. Now that the matter has not been done, it's better to keep a low profile.
Lizheng quickly convened a village conference and told the villagers about Shen Zi'an's proposal, and the villagers decided to go home and think about it.
"It is estimated that most of the people will change to potatoes and sweet potatoes." Li Shi said to Shen Zi'an, "Anyway, if you change these things, you will just lose some seedlings. And if you continue to grow paddy fields, there may be no harvest at that time!"
In the end, the fact was beyond Li Shi's expectation. It was not that no one in the village changed to potatoes and sweet potatoes, but that greatly exceeded what he said. It was all the people in the village who changed potatoes and sweet potatoes. They no longer wanted to suffer from the fear that the water would dry up.
All of a sudden, the villagers had a better attitude towards Shen Zi'an and his family. They wanted to treat them better. If there was a severe drought, they would have sweet potatoes to eat and starve to death. This is because they gave them the courage to give up those seedlings. Because if there is no drought and it is better for them, they will also take away their sweet potatoes and potatoes at a better price, so that they can exchange them for some rice noodles.
Shen Youfu specially called Shen Zi'an for this matter and asked him what he wanted to do?
Shen Zi'an also answered him with the words of Li Zheng's family. Shen Youfu felt that they were nonsense, and Shen Zi'an ignored him. He always took such an indifferent attitude towards his father. The more he paid attention to him, the more energetic he became. Unless the father touches his bottom line, this is his attitude. In the end, Shen Zhang came out to be a good person again, so that Shen Youfu didn't care about the children's affairs.
"Zi'an and Zi'an's daughter-in-law are both calculating people. They must have thought about it, so don't worry about them." Shen Zhang advised Shen Youfu and said to Shen Zi'an, "Your father is also worried about you, but he won't say it. Don't blame him."
After Shen Zi'an left, Shen Youfu was still angry. The reason why he was angry was that he thought that Shen Zi'an would not spend all his money to buy those potatoes and sweet potatoes, right? He also wants him to pay for Shen Ziju to take the exam!
Shen Ziju listened to Shen Youfu's words and frowned slightly. He was also very helpless about the lack of money in his family, but he was even more curious about the fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law to buy a lot of sweet potatoes.
Shen Ziju decided to go to the house of his fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law to ask about this, and he didn't see the generous and fresh woman for some days, and he also missed her a little in his heart. RQ
