Li Yan, a university graduate and village official dedicated to poverty alleviation, accidentally transmigrated into Li Family Village, nestled in a mountain gully. Her family was impoverished. Due...
You have to know that if a family works diligently and conscientiously for half a year to grow wheat on the best land, they can only earn two taels of silver after deducting all costs.
If what the girl from the Li family said was true, they actually earned four taels of silver. Patriarch Li couldn't believe it and started counting carefully with his fingers!
Li Yan was not in a hurry either. She just watched Patriarch Li counting on his fingers again!
After making sure that he was not wrong, Patriarch Li looked at Li Yan with sharp eyes, as if waiting for her confirmation!
Li Yan smiled and said, "Four ounces is right, but that's not a fixed number. If you don't take good care of the crops, you won't get that much. Of course, if you take good care of them, you can get over a thousand pounds per acre!"
The reason why Li Yan calculated the money based on the harvest was also to make the villagers pay more attention and not just sit there and do nothing and not care about anything!
"Your uncles have no problem farming, but they don't know anything about the habits of these crops, and they don't know whether these crops can survive easily?" Clan leader Li expressed his concerns.
Li Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry. These pepper plants are easy to care for and are not susceptible to diseases or pests. When the time comes, I'll grow the seedlings, and you uncles can take them home and plant them directly."
"Besides, the uncles and aunts in the village are all experienced in farming. As long as I explain the precautions of growing peppers to them in detail, there should be no problem."
Seeing that what she said was reasonable, and that four taels of silver was not a small amount, Patriarch Li called his grandson and asked him to call the villagers.
"Grandpa Patriarch, please wait a moment. I have a request to make, and I need to speak to you first!"
