The Ancient Life of the Doomsday

After returning to the village and distributing the things purchased by the villagers, Pei's house became a lot quieter, but it was much more lively than before, because villagers visited Pei's house from time to time.

Most of the customers who came to the door were aunts and aunts, as well as girls and brothers. Of course, their main purpose was to chat with Mo Xiaobao about Yueyang City.

It is rare for someone in the village to go to a big city like Yueyang City. Everyone is curious about all kinds of things that are not available in the village or town.

Now is a good opportunity for his family to integrate into the village, and Pei Shaorong will naturally not refuse, so everyone can chat with Mo Xiaobao, and his family's Abao is quite happy anyway.

In the past, no one in the village had visited Pei's house except the ones that Mo Xiaobao had befriended with him. Now they stayed at Pei's house and chatted for a few days, and the girls and brothers in the village envied Mo Xiaobao again. stand up.

When we got married before, everyone saw how much Pei Shaorong valued and liked Mo Xiaobao for everything he did. It was only when they got to his home that everyone realized that it was more than just liking. This man in the Pei family really treats him like a treasure. For it.

Now that Mo Xiaobao is dressed in food and clothes, his complexion is ruddy, and he looks white and fat. It doesn't look like he married a useless poor man.

Even if he is poor, the men of Pei's family are willing to spend money on him, and they are so pampered. This man's husband has just taken him to Yueyang City.

Now the aunts and aunts in the village, as well as girls and brothers, like to go to Pei's house to chat with Mo Xiaobao, because every time he goes, Pei Shaorong always treats them with more or less melon seeds and wild fruits.

Most of these snacks were collected in the mountains before, and they are not worth two dollars. The villagers can also go up the mountain to find them, but the free ones are more delicious!

Within two days of returning to the village, Pei Shaorong decided to ask the village head to handle the matter of buying the fields, because the village head had already planned to go to Yueyang City to see his daughter in person.

Pei Shaorong reckoned that the village chief's visit would take at least a month or two, and he was still waiting to grow food and fruits to support his family, so he couldn't waste this time.

He has a lot of money in his hands, but now Pei Shaorong doesn't plan to buy too many fields, he decided to temporarily buy ten acres of land.

Among them, 4 mu of land are used to grow grains such as rice, sweet potatoes and potatoes, just like the villagers, and the other [-] mu of land are used to grow watermelon and tomato, as well as seedlings of apple trees and persimmons.

Rice grains, sweet potatoes, and potatoes are of course planted to cover up their own living food problems. They can't buy fields and don't even grow food. The villagers will definitely find it strange.

Planting apple trees was done after careful consideration by Pei Shaorong. First of all, there are apples here. It is not surprising to have an apple tree at home. Then, the seeds of the saplings are taken from modern fresh fruits. excellent.

Moreover, apples have a relatively long shelf life and are convenient for long-distance transportation. If they are planted in large quantities in the future, it is better to sell them outside.

Plant apples first now, and other fruits can be added slowly in the future. Don’t worry, this meal won’t make you a big fat man.

The seedlings of watermelon and tomato have been cultivated long ago. These two are herbal fruits with a relatively short growth period. They can be harvested faster and can make money quickly.

There are also watermelons here. Pei Shaorong has heard of them from Zheng San and others, but they are basically wild, and no one deliberately grows them. Also because of genetic reasons, the wild watermelons here are not as sweet and delicious as modern watermelons.

Mo Xiaobao likes watermelon the most, and Pei Shaorong also likes it. There is no air-conditioning here in summer. Although I have ice cream in my space to relieve the heat, there are not many.

If you grow watermelons, when the watermelons are planted, freeze them in the well in summer, the taste will be indescribable.

The persimmon tree was found in the mountains ready-made. It only needs to be transplanted and planted, and it does not need to be troubled to cultivate. Persimmons are so profitable, Pei Shaorong does not intend to give up.

This is just an initial experiment. His family has few hands, and he has only been in ancient times for a short time. Although he has a good relationship with the village, his foundation is weak and it is not convenient for him to flex his muscles.

Pei Shaorong wants to grow too many things, but he can't eat a big fat man in one sitting, and he can't be anxious about anything, especially in this kind of field, he has to take his time, and his farming skills still need to be improved.

In fact, what he wants to grow is food, but there are high-yield crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn here, so he can grow some to eat at home, and there is no need to vigorously develop them.

As for rice, Pei Shaorong could only sigh. He really wanted to grow it. The yield of nearly [-] jin of hybrid rice per acre in modern times is not comparable to the yield of [-] to [-] jin of rice per acre of backward ancient land.

This is also the reason why there are so many fields in ancient times, but there is always no enough to eat, because the yield of one mu of land is too low!

The rice in my own space is all delicious and high-yielding rice grains, but they can't be used as seeds. Pei Shaorong can only regret it.

Fortunately, high-yield crops such as corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes appeared relatively early here. Although everyone can't eat food like modern people, they will not be hungry, and Pei Shaorong is not worried about food famine.

Pei Shaorong went to Yueyang City to do business. Most people in the village guessed that he must have made money, and the village chief didn't doubt that he had the money to buy a field, so he readily helped him with the field work.

Eight acres of good fertile land and two acres of sandy land with average soil quality totaled 20 taels of silver.

This sandy land is naturally used to grow watermelons. Watermelons are resistant to drought and barrenness, so there is no need to waste fertile fields.

Pei Shaorong and Mo Xiaobao would definitely not be able to grow ten acres of land, but Pei Shaorong didn't plan to do it all by himself, and those who can make money will use labor.

Pei Shaorong decided to spend money to hire someone to help with the 4 mu of grain, and Pei Shaorong was ready to do it himself in the [-] mu field of cultivating seedlings and planting fruits.

Now there are still more than two months before the good season of spring planting. Pei Shaorong decided to get some fertilizer for a few acres of land, and then continue to build a simple greenhouse to grow some watermelons, tomatoes, and apple tree seedlings. .

Straightening out the matter of farming in his mind, Pei Shaorong decided to put the matter of house repairs on the agenda before spring planting!

"Brother Pei, we just bought a field, and now we are repairing a house, won't it be bad..." Mo Xiaobao was worried that his family would show off too much, and someone from the village should come to cheer him up.

"I was in a hurry, but we went to Yueyang City to do business. If we said that we didn't make any money, the villagers would not believe it. Now we are buying fields and repairing houses, and we meet people who want to beat our family. Let's just say that the silver is used up, and no one will be offended!"

During this time in ancient times, Pei Shaorong also met a lot of people who beat the autumn wind in the village, which is also the reason why people in the village hide their money. question.

It hurts oneself to borrow money, and who knows when others will pay it back. It is said that when you borrow money, you are a grandson, and when you pay it back, you are an uncle.

If you don't borrow it, it will hurt your feelings. The most important thing in ancient times is the relationship between relatives. If there is anything in the family, relatives and neighbors will help.

Especially since he has a father-in-law like Father Mo, Pei Shaorong can't guarantee that he will be respectful and filial to Father Mo, otherwise he will not make his own ideas.

On weekdays, Father Mo would find him to eat, drink, and get some cheap money, so he would bear it, but if Father Mo wanted to use his own money to supplement a relative who had never met him, it could be said that he had nothing to do with him, Pei Shaorong It is absolutely unwilling.

It's not that he doesn't want to honor his father-in-law, it's that he puts it at Father Mo's place. He wants money for one purpose, to invest in his eldest son-in-law's potential stock. Otherwise, why would he want so much money for a little country old man without a son!

Now that he bought a field by himself and immediately repaired the house, there is no reason for those who want to take money from his family. Anyway, they don't know how much his family has saved.

The most important thing is that Pei Shaorong is thinking about Mo Xiaobao's giving birth to his baby every day.

Before the baby is born, let's build the nest first, otherwise it will be inconvenient to wait until the baby is born.

Little dolls are all precious, if your own baby does not say that he is sad when bumping into each other, his family's Abao must be so sad.

After the Pei family's purchase of land was completed, the village chief was about to leave for Yueyang City. As soon as the news came out, there was another burst of gossip in Linjiang Village.

The villagers were very excited. People who missed Pei Shaorong's bringing things before found the village head to let them buy.

In the past few days, there are people in the village who brought back things from Yueyang City, especially those who bought Yueyang City's floral cloth. Everyone is greedy for that floral cloth.

The day before the village chief's departure, the villagers of Linjiang village rushed to his house again. Compared with Pei Shaorong's purchasing agent, almost every household in Linjiang village asked the village chief to help bring things.

More or less, expensive or cheap, in short, everyone wanted to join in the fun and wanted the village chief to buy something from Yueyang City for his family.

This is a pain for the village chief, his purpose of going to Yueyang City is no longer to see his daughter, but to run errands for the villagers, and it is still the kind of self-supporting travel expenses and self-care of food and drink!

"Village Chief, I'm sorry to trouble you. Remember that my floral cloth is the one that Zhang's mother-in-law bought last time. One piece, I want one..."

"That's right, village head, I've also remembered that. Besides the floral cloth, I also want the Yueyang City pastry that Geer Lin's family brought last time. You have to come back quickly, my grandson is so hungry!"

"The village chief, go slowly..."

"The village head, come back quickly..."

The morning when the village head, Qin Laoshuan, set off, almost all the villagers in Linjiang Village went to see him off. Pei Shaorong also got up early today. Looking at the scene at the entrance of the village, which was comparable to seeing off the Red Army ten miles away, he couldn't help laughing while clutching his stomach.

He counted the number yesterday, and basically the whole village asked the village head to buy it on his behalf. Now the village head went to Yueyang City alone, unlike him who has the space, so many things he wanted to bring back, and there were still bits and pieces. What a chore!
