If we distribute grain now, but it is not enough when it is handed over, there will be no place to make up for it.
Therefore, the several teams did not dare to make decisions on their own.
However, in their water town, food is relatively abundant. The situation in the northwest is even worse. It was already May or June when the snow melted, and they could only hastily plant some sweet potatoes and potatoes, which are short-lived and highly filling foods.
In fact, even so, although they were exempted from paying grain taxes, the food they had was not enough for them to survive for half a year. Now every household was thinking about how to get more food.
This way we won’t go hungry or cold next year.
…
Song Tanglan had nothing to do, so she climbed down into the cellar to look at this year's harvest. There were quite a few potatoes and sweet potatoes, most of which were grown in her private plot. She had planted all of her small share of private plot with potatoes and sweet potatoes.
In addition, they also opened a large area in the backyard and planted vegetables and potatoes for their daily consumption.
Fortunately, potatoes and sweet potatoes don't take long to grow, so when it was time to harvest, they dug them up and put them in the cellar. However, time was tight and they didn't have time to sort them out, so they started planting cabbage and radishes.
Song Tanglan came to the cellar this time to help her second sister clean up the cellar that had been messed up by them.
"Second sister, I planted a little more potatoes and sweet potatoes this year, but I didn't expect the harvest to be so big."
"Don't you see that the little land you have left is all being used up by you? Plus you keep fertilizing it. It would be strange if the crops don't grow well."
Song Tangcheng looked at the potatoes that were bigger than bowls and couldn't help but feel proud of his little sister.
The ones grown by the team are really not as big as those grown by her younger sister. Look at this one, it seems to weigh one kilogram. They can't finish eating all of it.
If potatoes are left for too long, they will easily sprout and become inedible.
I can't help but feel sorry when I think of this.
"There are so many, and there will be some left when the grain is distributed. What should we do? These potatoes will sprout easily if left for too long. It's really worrying."
Song Tanglan felt a little embarrassed looking at the pile of potatoes. If she had known earlier, she should have planted more sweet potatoes. At that time, she just disliked the sweet potato seedlings that grew everywhere and blocked the space, so she planted more potatoes.
They didn't expect that the potatoes had such a strong reproductive ability. Almost every plant had two or three big ones and a bunch of small ones. They were very happy with the harvest at that time, but now they can't help but worry.
I just suddenly thought of the various delicious foods that can be made from potatoes and said.
"Second sister, with so many potatoes, we can make potato flour. This can be stored for a long time. There will be a lot of potato residue left over. This can be used to make pancakes."
