Chapter 214 Sweet Potatoes in the Valley



After the Spring Festival, the drought situation has not been alleviated, and has even tended to worsen.

The late spring cold also brings dry winds.

Su Qing and Cheng Fangyi worked in shifts day and night, keeping an eye on the food production in the space town.

A steady supply of food was put on the black market, but it was a drop in the bucket and could not solve the root cause of the drought.

"Wife, go and rest, it's my turn now."

Cheng Fangyi sowed the seeds very skillfully, waited two minutes, and then harvested the wheat.

Plant corn, harvest it, feed the pigs, chickens, ducks, sheep and bees.

During this period, I also have to find time to manage those factories and workshops.

It looks simple, but it takes a lot of thought to take everything into consideration.

"I slept for a long time during the day, and I'm not sleepy yet. Let's go together."

The couple each took care of one thing, and when the warehouse was almost full, they moved the grain to Cheng Fangyi's warehouse.

From the starry sky to the rising sun, the two of them were like machines, tireless.

"Wife, go to sleep now. Don't stay up all the time. We'll just do our best. It's not worth it if you ruin your health."

"good."

Su Qing didn't know when Cheng Fangyi went to work. When she woke up, it was already noon.

Seeing Su Qing getting up at this hour, Su's mother joked, "Luckily, Xiao Cheng married into our family, otherwise, you would be scolded to death by many mothers-in-law just for sleeping in until noon."

"Tsk, so what? I just married Cheng Fangyi, so what? I can only suppress my envy, jealousy and hatred."

"Look at you."

"Where are the children?"

"Your two sons went riding horses with their cousins. Your daughters are making clothes with Qianya. As a mother, you have not even enough children to do anything. Aren't you ashamed?"

Xiaowu and Xiaoliu have completely adapted to sleeping with the two brothers Su Qianfan and Su Qianshan.

The bed that was specially customized for them was also moved into Su Qianfan's room.

Su Qing and Cheng Fangyi were completely liberated and returned to their previous loving relationship as a couple.

Giggling~

Su Qing was still eating breakfast when Youqian grabbed her sleeve and walked out.

"Yes, I have money. I'm still having breakfast. Please wait until I finish."

The lotus seed and pork ribs porridge made by Su's mother was stewed for a long time. It was sweet and soft. Su Qing was eating it with relish.

Giggling~

"You need me for something?"

Youqian nodded.

"Can you wait a while? It will be done soon." Su Qing said as he quickened the pace of drinking the porridge.

After eating, he washed the bowl and followed Youqian to Dahei Mountain.

"I have money, but where are you taking me? Don't lose me, or my husband will stew you."

"If you have money, don't walk so fast. I don't have wings and can't fly over there."

"I have money, but the grass here is all thorny and I can't get through. When you lead the way, can you please consider that I am a mortal?"

"rich,……"

Youqian wished he could speak human language at this moment and make Su Qing shut up.

Seeing the familiar group of wild boars, Su Qing's vigilance suddenly increased.

"I said, 'Mr. Rich,' I've already called you 'Mr. Rich,' please spare my life. I have a mother over 50 years old and a baby who's just over a year old. Please let me go."

Youqian looked down upon Su Qing's dramatic performance.

Cluck, cluck, cluck~ After calling out twice, the group of wild boars stood there stupidly as if they were hypnotized, and then fell to the ground with a plop.

"You want me to take all these wild boars away?"

This is a group of wild boars, at least twenty or thirty of them. Does she have three heads and six arms or seventy-two martial arts?

Youqian looked at Su Qing with a look of disappointment. No, he had to work harder on his training and try to speak as soon as possible, otherwise he would be pissed off to death by Su Qing's train of thought.

"No, then what do you want me to do?"

When you have money, flap your wings and Su Qing follows happily.

Carefully passing through the herd of wild boars, he followed Youqian through twists and turns into an open valley.

Sweet potato vines grow all over the valley.

"You mean to ask me to dig sweet potatoes?"

Oh my goodness, it will take me forever to dig out so many.

Su Qing was skeptical and took out a small shovel from the space town. He dug at the root of the sweet potato vine, and a plump sweet potato appeared in Su Qing's sight.

"Oh my god, are these sweet potatoes immortal? They are so big."

Each one probably weighs about one to two kilograms.

Generally speaking, the yield of sweet potatoes per mu can reach about 6,000 kilograms.

Judging from the visual angle, the valley is about six acres wide, which means that after digging here, about 36,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes can be harvested.

Tens of thousands of kilograms of food can help many families survive this difficult year of disaster.

"You have money. When you called me over, did you want your family to dig, or did you want me to call the villagers to dig? If it's the first one, you flap your wings once. If it's the second one, you flap your wings twice."

Rich flapped his wings.

"Don't worry, our family won't use this food to profit from the national crisis. We will find an opportunity to donate it."

Youqian shook his head.

"Then we sell it at a low price?"

Only then did Youqian nod.

"Then how much do you think is a reasonable price per pound?"

Rich flapped his wings four times.

"Four cents? You're rich, sir. I don't think it would be a big deal to call someone to dig. With such a wide valley, it would take forever for our family to dig. We have old and young people to care for, and Qianfan and the others have to go back to school."

The man and the chicken discussed for a long time but couldn't come to a conclusion.

Seeing that it was getting dark, we had no choice but to go back home and make plans.
