Not long after, Xiyue called Fu Laicai and Uncle Li over.
"Miss, Xiyue said you have something to talk to us about?"
"Well, sit down."
Originally, the shop in the town was closed, and they wanted to let Uncle Li and the others take a break. But now Xiyue mentioned that they could sell the rapeseed sprouts, and Lin Jiuyue also thought it was feasible.
"Uncle Li, Lai Fu, Lai Cai, I called you here today because I have something to discuss with you."
When Uncle Li heard Lin Jiuyue say the word "discuss", he quickly spoke.
"Miss, if you have anything to say, just tell me. Why do we need to discuss it?"
How could a master discuss this with a servant? Isn't this too polite?
"Well, we have twenty acres of rapeseed planted at home, haven't we? The rapeseed has sprouted mosses now. I'm sure you've all had some at noon today. What do you think of them? Are they delicious?"
When Uncle Li heard this, he thought that Lin Jiuyue just wanted to ask him and others whether the rapeseed sprouts tasted good.
"Haha, Miss, I've never eaten rapeseed sprouts before. The taste today really exceeded my expectations. The rapeseed sprouts are indeed delicious."
There are not many vegetables to eat in winter. Those who can eat vegetables are those who have good family conditions.
The servants here have no vegetables to eat in winter. Now that the young lady has planted so many vegetables, we can eat them as food this winter.
Lin Jiuyue smiled.
"Uncle Li, Lai Fu, Lai Cai, what do you think? How about we sell these rapeseed sprouts?"
After hearing this, Uncle Li was stunned.
Sell it? It will definitely sell well!
"Miss, if we sell these rapeseed sprouts, they'll probably be in great demand. It's feasible!"
Lai Fu and Lai Cai also quickly agreed.
Lin Jiuyue saw that all three of them agreed.
"If we want to sell rapeseed sprouts, someone has to do it, and we don't have any extra people at home. I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you again when the time comes."
After hearing this, Lai Fu Lai Cai quickly spoke.
"Miss, we have been in the village for several days. We were worried about having no work to do and were bored. Now we have something to do, we are so happy."
"That's right, miss. When the time comes, we will be responsible for selling rapeseed."
Lin Jiuyue is also a man of action. When he heard this, he slammed the table on the spot.
"Okay, let's get started. Let's start plucking the rapeseed stalks now. Only pluck the center one of each stalk. Don't pluck too deep, or you'll affect the yield."
After explaining the precautions to a few people, Lin Jiuyue asked them to go to the field with tools.
Not long after leaving the hospital, Lin Jiuyue met the village chief.
"Jiuyue girl, what are you planning to do with so many people?"
The village chief saw Lin Jiuyue bringing out all the servants in the house, and also took out baskets and other tools to carry things. He asked curiously.
"Uncle, let's go pick the rapeseed moss."
village head:……
"Why pick the rapeseed stalks? If you pick the stalks, won't the rapeseed stop growing?"
The village chief's family also planted an acre of rapeseed with Lin Jiuyue. When he heard Lin Jiuyue talking about things related to rapeseed, the village chief became very excited.
"Growing! Not only does pinching the rapeseed stalks not affect its growth, but the yield is also higher than without pinching."
The village chief was stunned.
"I think the rapeseed is growing well. It would be a shame to pluck the rapeseed shoots."
Lin Jiuyue smiled.
"Uncle, it won't be wasted. The rapeseed sprouts can be eaten. There aren't many vegetables in winter, so we can pick some and eat them. However, we have grown a lot at home, so we plan to pick them and sell them."
After hearing this, the village chief was stunned.
Can rapeseed sprouts be eaten? Jiu Yue plans to pick some and sell them. Are they tasty? Will anyone buy them?
"September girl, are you serious? Are those rapeseed sprouts really edible?"
Lin Jiuyue nodded.
"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"
"However, if you want to pinch the rapeseed stalks, you can only pinch the one in the middle, and don't pinch it too deep. If you pinch it too deep, it will affect the growth of side branches, and the yield will be low."
After listening to Lin Jiuyue's words, the village chief nodded thoughtfully.
"Uncle, if you don't have much to eat at home, you can pick some of the rapeseed sprouts and eat them. If there's too much to eat, you can also make it into dried vegetables and store it. It won't go bad in a short time."
The village chief was very happy after hearing this.
"Hey, I'll pick some later and see if it tastes good."
After listening to this, Lin Jiuyue nodded.
"If you don't like it, or if you can't finish it and don't want to dry it, you can do what I did and sell the rapeseed sprouts for a few copper coins."
When the village chief heard this, he laughed so hard that his teeth showed.
"Haha, Jiuyue girl, I made the right decision to plant rapeseed with you this year. Once the rapeseed is sold for silver, I wonder who will dare to laugh at me again."
When the news of the village chief and Lin Jiuyue growing rapeseed together spread in the village, all the villagers were talking about the village chief and his family.
To put it mildly, they say the village chief is brave; to put it bluntly, they say he is stupid. He uses an acre of land to grow something he has never seen before.
The village chief had heard this sort of thing several times in the village, and one could imagine how furious he must have been.
But the village chief kept silent, waiting for the rapeseed to make money so that he could give those who were watching him have fun a good slap in the face.
When the village chief heard Lin Jiuyue say that the rapeseed could be sold even before it was ripe, the anger that had been accumulating in his heart finally dissipated a little.
"Uncle, don't worry. Even if we don't make money from rapeseed, we won't lose money either!"
After hearing Lin Jiuyue's words, the village chief felt more relieved.
"Jiuyue girl, then you guys should hurry up. I'll go to the rapeseed field first, pick a handful of rapeseed sprouts, and stir-fry them to see how they taste. I've never had stir-fried rapeseed sprouts before."
People are always curious about new things, and the village chief is no exception.
After saying goodbye to the village chief, Lin Jiuyue took his servants and went straight to the rapeseed field.
The surrounding fields are all planted with wheat. Apart from wheat, there is nothing else green.
Lin Jiuyue's family's rapeseed field stands out in this area.
"Miss, this is all our rapeseed, right?"
Lai Fu had been staying in the town before and rarely came to the village. He only came to the village after the grain store closed.
During these days in the village, Uncle Li took Lai Fu and Lai Cai to pull weeds in the medicinal herb field on the hillside, and they didn't even know what rapeseed looked like.
Of course, this is before eating the rapeseed sprouts.
"Yes, all the rapeseed crops in this area belong to our family."
From having nothing at the beginning to owning such a large piece of land now, Lin Jiuyue still has some sense of accomplishment.
After hearing Lin Jiuyue's words, Laicai asked excitedly.
"Miss, we have so much rapeseed. If we sell it all, how much silver will it fetch?"
