Farmer's Notes from Another World

Even though he said so, Ah Liu took autumn cucumbers, autumn radishes and other vegetables to Liujia Village the next day to fill up the vegetable field there.Fang Zhiyuan already knew about the affairs of Liu's Village, so he wanted to accompany Liu Ahmao no matter what.After all, they pulled out their vegetables only yesterday, if Liu Ahmao, an old man, was alone, maybe someone who didn't have a good eye would come to trouble Liu Ahmao.

Liu Ahma knew that Fang Zhiyuan cared about him, so she cheerfully did not refuse.The two of them worked for most of the day to plant the vegetables, and went to water and fertilize every now and then, because the sun was strong in summer, and Fang Zhiyuan was quite tanned.Liu Zhuang felt a little distressed, and decided in his heart that when he gave birth to a child, he must take over this matter.

After a few days, the watermelon frost that Fang Zhiyuan made began to change.Those methods can produce some frost, but the one that produces the most frost is to hollow out the flesh of the watermelon and put Glauber's salt in it.However, this kind is not as fast as the other two, and the waiting time is longer.Fang Zhiyuan once thought that this method had failed, so he ignored it. After waiting for a while, he discovered the frost on the watermelon.

Fang Zhiyuan was very happy to find out that watermelon frost could be made, and Liu Zhuang was also very surprised at the white layer of frost.However, because he was a pregnant woman, Fang Zhiyuan didn't know if the watermelon frost was harmful to a pregnant woman, so he was not allowed to touch it.When everyone in the family was home at noon, Fang Zhiyuan happily took out his watermelon cream.

The Fang family really found it strange, but no one is angry now, and the effect of this thing can't be cashed out.Fang Zhiyuan was not in a hurry, he planned to make more watermelon frosting this summer.Anyway, the family grew a lot of watermelons, and the tenants also grew a lot, and they could buy a lot of them for a lot of money.

Fang Zeng did not object, summer watermelon is not worth a few dollars, although I don't know how much this watermelon frost is worth, but the watermelon is still sitting, it is better to sell it, it is not a waste of things.Since they want to make more, the place at home is too small. Moreover, if the family has children and elderly people, they can't hang watermelons all over the house.

It was Liu Amo who built the new house because he was thinking of Liujia Village, and they also planted some watermelons in the land of Liujia Village.Just go directly to Liujia Village to do it, and it just happens to make the houses there popular.They have never lived in the new house, and it is indeed not decent.

When Grandma Liu heard that Fang Zhiyuan was going to the house in Liu's Village, she immediately patted her chest and assured him that he would go back and clean up the house in Liu's Village.In the end, it was decided that Fang Zhiyuan and Fang Zeng, uncles and nephews, would make watermelon frosting, while Liu Ahmao and Chen Mo would stay at home and take care of Liu Zhuang and Xiaotuanzi.

Although Liu Zhuang repeatedly affirmed that he could take care of himself, Fang Zhiyuan and Liu Amo jointly ignored them.So, Fang Zeng and Fang Zhiyuan went to the house in Liujia Village to make watermelon cream every day. Fang Zeng made a lot of baskets and baskets, and Fang Zhiyuan also cut a lot of bamboo sticks for backup.

The uncle and nephew can make more than 100 watermelons a day, and they finished the watermelons in Liujia Village in a few days.Fang Zhiyuan simply bought several thousand catties of watermelons from acquaintances in Linjia Village, and piled them in the Fang family's yard. When he went to Liujia Village every day, his uncle and nephew would take a cart with two mules.

After more than ten days of busy work, Fang Zhiyuan and Fang Zeng stopped.In the three big houses and two kitchens in Liujia Village, there are watermelons hanging from the beams, and there are also racks on the ground where baskets and watermelons are placed.Fang Zhiyuan looked at the full watermelon, feeling very proud in his heart.

However, there were too many watermelon pulps dug out, so Fang Zhiyuan directly mashed them into watermelon juice.In this way, Liu Zhuang at home can't drink, Xiaotuanzi can drink less, Liu Amo and Chen Mo are also afraid of the cold, so they can't drink much.Only Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang came here occasionally to help drink some, just like that, Liu Ama felt a little distressed when she saw the discolored watermelon flesh.

Half a month later, the watermelons began to frost one after another.Fang Zhiyuan and Fang Zeng used the small brushes they had made, put the watermelons one by one into the wooden basin, and carefully brushed off the hoarfrost.A watermelon looks quite big, but the hoarfrost that comes off is only three or four taels. After all the brushing, there are more than a thousand watermelons, and only 250 catties of watermelon frost are obtained.This cost is a bit high, but fortunately, watermelons are worthless, and a thousand or so, except for my own, is only about one tael of silver.And Glauber's salt is a bit expensive, because you get a lot of it, it's five cents a catty cheaper, and a thousand catties also costs ten taels of silver.In this way, Watermelon Frost spent a total of 11 taels of silver and got more than two hundred catties.

In other words, they have to sell more than 83 Wen per catty to keep their capital.Fang Zhiyuan was a little worried. He made this thing, but he didn't expect the cost to be so high.What if it can't be sold?Fang Zeng also had this kind of concern, but he didn't say it out loud, maybe it was because Fang Zhiyuan made money so many times, he subconsciously believed in Fang Zhiyuan.

Fang Zhiyuan thought that watermelon frost could no longer be sold as medicine.This thing is good, but if the medicine business is not careful, it will cause trouble.He just wants to make some money now, and doesn't want to cause trouble.The money has already been spent, Fang Zhiyuan gritted his teeth, went to the town to make friends with the doctor, and asked about the method of making the pills.After buying some medicinal materials at the pharmacy, the Lin family joined forces and made watermelon cream into pills.

At this time, Fang Zhiyuan and Fang Zeng each took the pills to shopkeeper Liu and shopkeeper Chen, and asked them how to sell the product.Shopkeeper Liu was very happy to see Fang Zhiyuan coming, it had been a long time since he came last time.Shopkeeper Liu counts the days on his fingers every day, looking forward to the arrival of his great-grandson.

Fang Zhiyuan exchanged pleasantries with shopkeeper Liu for a while, and then they talked about the watermelon cream pills.Moisturize the throat with watermelon frost, and talk about the effect of getting rid of the fire.Of course, the chickens and ducks at home have also tried the efficacy, and they must be non-toxic and harmless.Even if Fang Zhiyuan didn't get angry, even if he put some in his mouth, he could feel the coldness.

Shopkeeper Liu pondered for a while, and said: "If this thing only has this effect, I'm afraid it won't be sold at a good price. But the price is too low. I listen to your voice. I'm afraid the cost of this thing is not cheap. How many people in the town have sold it too high? Do you need to buy medicine for getting angry?" It means that the price of this pill is not good, and its efficacy is limited, so it may not be easy to make money.

Fang Zhiyuan also understood, and hurriedly said: "Shopkeeper Liu, in fact, I already have some ideas. This person is very face-saving, I want to order a special small porcelain bottle, a small porcelain bottle can hold twenty pills, and sell it to the south or west. A bottle is no less than [-] Wen, and this pill clears away heat and moisturizes the throat, removes fire and eliminates phlegm, and is made of a variety of materials. I think everyone should buy some and try it. When this thing itself represents If you are rich, someone will buy it."

Shopkeeper Liu looked at Fang Zhiyuan and said, "That's a good idea. Why don't you send some pills here. I have a channel to take them to the south, so I'll try what you said. I'll order some porcelain bottles in the south. I'll bring it back to you when the time comes. It's good if you make money, but if you don't make money, it's a big deal to sell in my shop. Don't worry, I'll test the water for you first. Don't panic in the west, wait for the south to sell That’s right, we’ll just sell the new ones coming in from the south here.”

Fang Zhiyuan also understood shopkeeper Liu's meaning, foreign monks can recite scriptures, and things in the south are very welcome here.If it is really according to shopkeeper Liu's intention, it would be a good idea.

After talking about the business, shopkeeper Liu began to ask Fang Zhiyuan about the progress of Liu Zhuang and Liu Amo.When he learned that Liu Zhuang might be pregnant with twins, shopkeeper Liu was surprised and delighted, it's not easy to be pregnant with twins.But when he thought of this, Liu Zhuang's childbirth would suffer, and he immediately became worried.

Think about it, and said to Fang Zhiyuan: "Boy of the Fang family, if Ah Zhuang's baby is really twins, he will suffer a lot. My brother's delivery is just a trip before the gate of hell. You should pay more attention. I have a baby here. A hundred years of life, although it is a hundred years, is actually a year of seven or eighty years. I will get it for you, and when Ah Zhuang gives birth, if Ah Zhuang is not strong enough, he can still improve his strength." As he said, he got up.

Fang Zhiyuan hurriedly said: "Shopkeeper Liu, there is no need for this. I have already prepared ginseng. Although I don't have any, I have bought slices of ginseng of good quality to keep at home. Don't worry, Ah Zhuang has had such a hard pregnancy. How could I not arrange these things properly. The doctor said that Ah Zhuang is in good health, and there will be no major problems in childbirth."

Shopkeeper Liu had no choice but to suppress his worry, and asked tentatively: "Boy of the Fang family, your mother should be very happy these days. Ah Zhuang has twin bodies, and when he comes out, he will be two children. He's not too happy." Thinking of Liu Amo holding a baby on her back, shopkeeper Liu's expression softened.

Fang Zhiyuan glanced at Shopkeeper Liu, and said, "Nurse is very happy, she takes good care of Ah Zhuang every day. A few days ago, she went back to Liu's Village to plant the family's vegetable field, which is very delicate and capable. However, Shopkeeper Liu, I still have to say that your younger brother and nephew are still determined to take over Mammy's property. According to A Zhuang, he is a brother, and they are of the same clan as you, so the name change is justified. I think Mammy is very unhappy Yes, so, if Ah Zhuang really gave birth to twins this time, the second child will have the surname of Nanny directly. From now on, Ah Zhuang's father will also be considered a successor."

As soon as Fang Zhiyuan's words came out, Mr. Shopkeeper Liu was a little guilty and did not dare to look at Fang Zhiyuan, and when he heard that Fang Zhiyuan was planning to adopt the child under the name of his son to inherit the incense, he became excited.What makes him sadder and more guilty than watching his son go bankrupt when no one inherits the incense.

Shopkeeper Liu stared wide-eyed, looked at Fang Zhiyuan, calmed down as much as he could and said, "Boy of the Fang family, thank you, thank you very much. He Erquan knows you, so you can rest assured." As he spoke, his old eyes became blurred.Fang Zhiyuan couldn't bear to see such a scene, said a few polite words to shopkeeper Liu, and left.

But the other side once approached shopkeeper Chen, and shopkeeper Chen meant to sell it well, but the price couldn't go up.Fang Zeng didn't say anything after hearing this, and when he got home, his uncle and nephew discussed it and followed Fang Zhiyuan's instructions.First test the water with shopkeeper Liu, if it sells well, everyone will be happy, if it doesn't sell well, then think of other ways.

Since Fang Zhiyuan wanted to take the high-end route, besides sending some pills the next day, Fang Zhiyuan also brought 50 taels of silver to shopkeeper Liu, asking shopkeeper Liu to help him customize porcelain bottles.Shopkeeper Liu was willing to accept it, but he couldn't resist Fang Zhiyuan. In the end, he accepted it, but he was thinking of subsidizing them in other ways.

Then came the Mid-Autumn Festival, Fang Zeng and Chen Mo went to Chen's house to give gifts, Fang Zhiyuan thought about it and sent a copy to shopkeeper Liu.Shopkeeper Liu looked at the things with a lot of emotion in his heart, and finally he was not alone.

Because Xiaotuanzi is born on the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone in the family remembers it.Fang Zhiyuan took advantage of going to town to search for a long time, and found some books for Xiaotuanzi.During Catch Week last year, Xiaotuanzi took a book and a pen, but his father was so happy.It was unanimously decided that Xiao Tuanzi would be good at reading in the future, and Fang Zhiyuan also thought that the books would be more high-end and could show his connotation and taste when buying books.

When eating crabs during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Fang Zeng and Chen Mo brought back a lot of big crabs from the Chen family, all of which were gifts from others to the Chen family.Although the crab with teeth and claws was tied up with straw, Fang Zhiyuan was so greedy that his mouth was watering.Xiao Tuanzi was curious about everything, watching Fang Zhiyuan squatting and staring at the crab, he followed suit by squatting and staring at the crab.

It wasn't enough to watch, Xiaotuanzi was so courageous, he stretched out his little finger to poke the crab.Fang Zhiyuan was taken aback. Although the crab was tied up, Fang Zhiyuan still held Xiaotuanzi's hand to prevent him from touching things.When Liu Zhuang came in, he saw Fang Zhiyuan and Xiaotuanzi, one big and one small were squatting on the ground, looking at the crabs in the basket very intently, it was hard for Xiaotuanzi to follow him patiently.

Amo Liu brought mooncakes into the room and saw Fang Zhiyuan and Xiaotuanzi's stupid appearance. He glanced at the crabs in the basket, shook his head in a funny way, and said to Fang Zhiyuan, "Ah Yuan, come, let's eat first." Lunch. In the afternoon, Mammy steamed the crabs and kept them for you to eat your fill."

Fang Zhiyuan sat down with Xiaotuanzi in his arms. The lunch was to celebrate Xiaotuanzi's birthday.Xiaotuanzi is wearing a new suit that his aunt made for him today. He was already fat and white, but now he looks more like a boy who spreads wealth under the seat of Guanyin.Chen Mo fed him half a bowl of rice and half a bowl of custard, and then gave him some soup, leaving him a little stomach and leaving him alone.

On one side of Xiaotuanzi was Chen Mo, and on the other side was Fang Zeng. The two of them sandwiched Xiaotuanzi in between.Xiaotuanzi had almost finished eating, but he still stared at the food in his father's bowl.Fang Zeng got used to it, picked some fish and fed it to his mouth, Xiaotuanzi immediately became excited.

After eating it in his mouth, he looked towards Fang Zhiyuan. Fang Zhiyuan just caught a piece of fish roe, and Xiaotuanzi's eyes were fixed on it.But it was a little far away, Xiaotuanzi couldn't convey his strong desire to Fang Zhiyuan, so he could only say to his father beside him: "Daddy, I will eat brother's food."

Fang Zeng watched as he picked a piece of fish roe from the fish and gave it to Xiao Tuanzi, Liu Ama said, "Ah Zeng, you can't let Xiao Tuanzi eat fish roe."

Fang Zeng hurriedly put the fish roe into his bowl, Xiaotuanzi was upset and kept staring at his father.Fang Zeng had no choice but to ask Liu Ah, "Liu Ah, is there any reason why Xiaotuanzi can't eat fish roe?"

Liu Ama said with a smile: "It was passed down from the older generation that children who eat fish roe will become stupid. We have passed it down from generation to generation. Xiaotuanzi is so smart, but he can't be made stupid by fish roe. "

Fang Zhiyuan felt wronged after eating the fish roe, it was the fish roe that caused him to be so stupid in his feelings.
