The Story of Ancient Farming through Time Traveling

In the early morning of the second day, under the leadership of Yuan Bao, Chen Xingzhou put the remaining watermelon into a [-]-dry freezer, and when he passed Qingyou Pavilion, he dropped a thousand catties of watermelon in.

Zhou Qingyou seemed to have been waiting for a long time. When she saw Chen Xingzhou bringing the watermelon, she quickly ordered a few attendants to move it to the backyard.

Baigan's icehouse is located 100 meters away from Shanshui Town, about [-] meters deep. It gets colder and colder as you go down. When you walk to the end, you will see a huge icehouse. It was beautiful, but he didn't care to appreciate it, it was too cold, even if he put on a cloak when he came down, he couldn't resist the slightest chill.

Building such a large icehouse is by no means a small project. My man is so rich and low-key, it's really hard not to like it.

After nearly five thousand catties of watermelons were put away, Chen Xingzhou couldn't tell whether it was hot or cold, at least he felt like he was on fire.

After finishing his work, Chen Xingzhou asked Yuan Bao to lead the coachmen back first, while he went to the field. The cantaloupe seemed to be ripe in a few days, and the watermelon field had already been tidied up, waiting for the melon seeds to be planted.

Chen Xingzhou didn't forget to go to Qingyou Pavilion to teach them how to make fruit bowls. After a busy day, he could only take advantage of the evening time, which coincided with Qingyou Pavilion's time.

When I came to Qingyou Pavilion, the lights were bright and it was very lively.

The one who studied with Chen Xingzhou was a young man named Qingqiu. He had been doing sculpture for a while before, so he should be very handy in learning.

"Mr. Chen, cut it up first, and I'll follow suit." Qiu Qiu's voice was that peculiar hoarse voice, which wasn't unpleasant, but had a rather ordinary taste.

"I do it slowly, and you learn slowly."

"it is good."

When Chen Xingzhou cut out watermelon flowers with a knife, Qingqiu was not far behind, and the cutting was getting better and better.

Chen Xingzhou couldn't help but praise, "Qingqiu, you're a fast learner. It's different if you have the foundation."

"Mr. Chen has won the prize. You are also very good. You can actually cut a watermelon into such a shape." There are several formed watermelon flowers in front of you, which are very beautiful. Mr. Chen is really skillful.

"I'm sorry, I'm not as smart as you. When I practiced, I spent a lot of effort and wasted a lot of fruit. Now that you have learned one, let's change the pattern and finally learn how to arrange the fruit plate together. The fruit plate will become a fruit plate." gone."

"it is good."

Chen Xingzhou taught seriously, and Qingqiu studied more seriously.

It wasn't until late at night that Qingqiu was willing to let Chen Xingzhou leave. He was already a little obsessed with carving and other knife skills, so he insisted on begging Chen Xingzhou to teach him many tricks of cutting, which made him drowsy and backache. His back hurts, and he can't take it anymore. He just wants to sleep.

"Qingqiu, we have learned a lot of tricks tonight. It must be enough. It's getting late. I'm not a night owl like you. I can't stay up late. I have to go home and sleep." I don't know how many hundreds of times I've been hit, the tearful mother-in-law looks really pitiful.

Qingyu also felt that she was a bit too much, after all, Mr. Chen needed to sleep at night, unlike them, who went to work at night and slept during the day.

"Master Chen, I'm really sorry, I'll take you out."

"No need, I know the way." With Qingqiu's permission, Chen Xingzhou was relieved, and hurried out of the backyard and came to the front hall. It was already midnight, Qingyou Pavilion was quiet, and everyone should be sleeping in the room.

When he came to the front hall, Chen Xingzhou saw a blue figure, a person he was very familiar with, Baigan, as soon as he saw him, his sleepiness disappeared without a trace.

Chen Xingzhou hurriedly walked up to Baigan, "Brother Bai, when did you come? Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"It hasn't been long, are you done?" He knew that Xing Zhou had come to Qingyou Pavilion, so he came early to wait for someone, but no one came out, but he felt relieved when Xing Zhou was here, so he waited until now.

"Ah."

"Then let's go, I'll take you to a place." Tonight is the Lantern Festival, although there should be still lanterns in the river when we pass by.

Chen Xingzhou was curious, where would he take him?However, occasionally there is a little sense of mystery between couples, which can add extra interest, so don't ask, just follow along.

"it is good."

The summer is scorching, even in the middle of the night, it is not cold, on the contrary, it is very cool, with a breezy breeze, which is very comfortable.

Under the wide sleeves were two hands with ten fingers clasped tightly, and Baigan was holding a lantern in the other hand. Chen Xingzhou and Baigan walked slowly to a river a hundred meters away from Shanshui Town. It is full of the whole river and is flowing slowly. It is very beautiful under the light of the dim moonlight and the lights.

"Brother Bai, why are there so many lanterns here?"

"Today is the Lantern Festival in Shanshui Town. Many people came to set off lanterns. Look, I have prepared two." Baigan took out two squashed lotus lanterns from his pocket.

Chen Xingzhou was both apologetic and pleasantly surprised, "Brother Bai, I'm sorry, I didn't know that today is the Lantern Festival, I'm really sorry for making you wait so long."

Baigan stretched out his hand and touched Chen Xingzhou's forehead, "It's okay, it's good to be able to put up lanterns and make wishes together." After all, today is different, Xingzhou has his own store and fields, so he is naturally busy, and he can't blame it for this he.

Ever since they got together, Chen Xingzhou could feel Baigan's unconditional doting on him. It seemed that he couldn't keep himself too busy in the future, and had to spare time to accompany Baigan occasionally.

"Brother Bai, let's put the lanterns on."

"it is good."

Baigan unfolded the two lanterns. Although they were a little crumpled, Chen Xingzhou still liked them very much.

Chen Xingzhou took sparks out of the lantern and lit two lanterns, holding them in his hands, his heart was warm.

Chen Xingzhou and Baigan put the lanterns in the river together.

Chen Xingzhou closed his eyes and clasped his palms together to make a sincere wish, hoping that he could be with Baiqian for a long time, and that the future would be safe and smooth. The old-fashioned wish was also what he hoped for most.

Baigan also closed his eyes and made a wish.

At the end, Chen Xingzhou asked curiously, "Brother Bai, have you made your wish?"

"Ah."

"Then what wish did you make?" After asking, Chen Xingzhou poohed a few more times, "Look at my stupid brain, it won't work if I say my wish."

Xing Zhou looks so cute.

"Xing Zhou, since the lanterns are finished, let's go back."

"it is good."

Because it was too late today, after Baigan sent Chen Xingzhou home, he returned to the mansion the same way, thinking about the wish he just made, hoping that everything will be safe and smooth, everything will come true, simple and simple, it is what he wants most in his life Yes, he didn't care about his status at all and he didn't care about the imperial power. It's just that things didn't go his way. Some things were doomed from birth and couldn't be escaped or avoided.

Watermelons have been on the rise since yesterday, and many outsiders heard about it and came to buy it. Qianzhou Fruit Shop is full of people every day, which even drives the surrounding business.

Chen Xingzhou directly arranged Liu Fei in the store to take care of the business. Liu Fei was older than Li Zhu, and he had seen a lot, and he was soft in business. He went to work in the fields.

Chen Xingzhou and Li Zhu are busy in the field, and the cantaloupe will be ripe in a few days. According to the current market, the price of cantaloupe can increase.

The cantaloupe matured as scheduled, and Chen Xingzhou directly adjusted the selling price to seven cents per catty. However, the output of cantaloupe is not much, only 700 catties, and he can earn more than [-] taels, which is nearly half of the watermelon. Even if it is sold to Shen Ninety-five Wen per catty, and another one thousand catties, would make more money than watermelons.

If cantaloupe is as easy to sell as watermelon, the price of cantaloupe will continue to rise.

I transported half of the cantaloupe to the Qianzhou fruit shop. The watermelon has not been sold out yet, and the two kinds are mixed and sold. Judging from the current situation, there will be no worries about selling.

When the cantaloupe was ripe, another batch of vegetables was ripe, and the output was comparable to last time. Baigan was taken away directly, then transported to various branches, and ran around. The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. Chen Xingzhou was so thoughtful. , a little absent-minded when working.

As soon as the cantaloupe is ripe, after digging the ground, quickly plant cantaloupe in it. As for the vegetables, Chen Xingzhou has already planned what to plant. Coriander, white radish and carrot, these three kinds can be used to mix cold dishes, etc. After being so busy, I miss it too

Time flies, it is already September, and Baigan has returned long ago. The two are still getting along in the same way as before, but they are closer than before, probably because they have been separated for a while.

The golden wheat is finally ripe and ready to be harvested, and even the melons will be ripe in half a month. By then, there will be only new vegetables left, and the year will soon pass. This will be his second visit here. year.

Chen Xingzhou measured the market price of flour in advance. A catty of flour costs five taels of silver, which is really sky-high. How can ordinary people afford it?No wonder someone in the imperial court controls the flour market. The profits are huge. It is conceivable that since he decided to sell flour, he would never sell it at a high price, so he set the price at [-] cents a catty, which should be the lowest price in Dazhou. , In this way, ordinary people can also eat steamed buns.

Harvesting is tiring, but looking at the wheat growing on the ground, Chen Xingzhou's tiredness instantly turned into strength, and he became more and more satisfied, and his movements became faster and faster.

There is no substantial difference between the ancient sickle and the modern one. Chen Xingzhou used it quite smoothly, but when the horse always stumbled, he accidentally missed his hand, and the sickle directly hit the palm of his hand. , the blood gushed out directly, and it was afternoon again, the blood was so profuse that it couldn't be stopped, which really scared Li Zhu.

Li Zhu hurriedly dropped the sickle in his hand to ask for a doctor. Chen Xingzhou was covering the wound, and his other hand was also stained red. The sickle was fast, and the cut must have been deep. He didn't dare to look at the wound. Sitting on the ground was even worse. He didn't dare to move, for fear that he would bleed more when he stood up.

Now I am waiting for Li Zhu to ask a doctor to stop the bleeding. In this way, I will not be able to work in the field in the future. I am already short of manpower, and now it will undoubtedly make things worse. It seems that I need to ask Li Zhu to hire a few more people, and then he Change Liu Fei from the fruit shop so that he can help Li Zhu.
