Chapter 85 Buying Seeds
Uncle Li then said: "Well, anyway, even if you burn the charcoal and firewood for two or three more rounds, the rest is the night watch and the kiln closure. These things I, your aunt and your three Brother He, your sister-in-law can do it! Go ahead and do your own thing! We will sell the money together, and we will share it with you!"
Lian Fangzhou hurriedly said: "How can this be done! I—"
"I think this is the reason, and I think so too!" Aunt Zhang cut off her words and couldn't refute: "This method of burning charcoal is not you and Jane, how would we know? We can't earn this. Money! Don't say you take half, you should take most of it! Not only this year, but every year in the future, as long as there is ours, there will be yours! Don't refuse! Otherwise, we will become who we are!"
Uncle Li also nodded.
When Lian Fangzhou saw them say this, he couldn't say anything else, so he nodded with a smile, and said, "Thank you uncle and auntie and brother-in-law! This year's things will be like this first, and the future things will be discussed later!"
"That's right!" Uncle Li and Aunt Zhang laughed.
"Fangzhou, do you really want to plant that cotton? Well, I heard that you borrowed money from some cousin in Shuangliu County. If it doesn't work, what should you do!" Aunt Zhang couldn't help saying.
Knowing that she was kind, Lian Fangzhou smiled patiently: "Don't worry, I just think that the government has promoted sweet potatoes before, so it shouldn't be wrong!"
"How can it be the same? Sweet potatoes were sold in our city before the government promoted them, and they were a rarity at that time! But Rao is like this, few people tried planting at the beginning, mainly because they didn't know how to serve them. . This potato and cotton... doesn't sound reliable!" Aunt Zhang frowned.
Lian Fangzhou sighed softly and said, "Aunt Zhang, you also know the situation in my family! A Ze and the others are still young, and they will marry a daughter-in-law and dowry in the future. I also want to teach Che'er to study! There are a lot of places to spend money inside and out! Just relying on the production in the field, even if I am exhausted, I can’t live this day! I just gave it my all, and I want to give it a shot! If I don’t have this opportunity, I won’t say anything. , Since I have the opportunity, I am afraid that if I miss this village, I will not have this store!"
When Aunt Zhang heard her words, she nodded and sighed: "What you said makes sense! Oh, it's really hard for you! You child has a responsibility!"
"There's nothing we can do about it!" Lian Fangzhou smiled. He wanted to persuade Aunt Zhang and the others to plant cotton and potatoes, but after thinking about it, forget it! Otherwise, when everyone sees it next year, you will still be like a prophet, and it will be difficult to explain at that time.
Aunt Zhang and Uncle Li just sighed and stopped talking.
"Then I'll go first! I have to go to Zhang Lizheng's house to ask about the seeds!" Lian Fangzhou smiled.
"Okay, then I won't leave you!" Aunt Zhang said.
Uncle Li also said: "Then you go, and if you need our help, just say it!"
Lian Fangzhou said "hey" and agreed to go.
Of course, when I went to Zhang Lizheng's house, I couldn't go empty-handed, but I didn't have anything to hand, so I still packed half a sack of charcoal.
She could see that the charcoal-shattering Niu Clan was very happy last time, and the meaning inside and outside the words was that the more the better.
Anyway, don't want money, it's okay to send some more.
"What did you say?" Zhang Lizheng almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, and said in surprise: "You, are you willing to buy all the cotton seeds? Do you know how much there are? It's thousands of pounds!"
Lian Fangzhou was secretly delighted when he heard it, a thousand pounds, I'm afraid it's not enough!
She nodded and said: "As long as the big guy has no opinion, I will. I have to ask you to help me tell the big guy about this! How can I trust my words!"
Lian Fangzhou's tall hat made Zhang Lizheng feel a lot more comfortable, but Zhang Li was a shrewd person, so he didn't agree to Lian Fangzhou immediately, but asked the reason.
She is willing to plant so much cotton for no reason, who would believe it?
Lian Fangzhou repeated what he explained to Aunt Zhang as it was.
Zhang Lizheng couldn't help but feel sympathy.
Niu sighed even more, glared at Zhang Lizheng and said, "Fangzhou, this child is not easy! Since she has said that, let's help! Isn't it just a matter of sending a sentence, whether you want it or not, everyone. Make up your own mind! Just,"
Mr. Niu paused for a moment and said, "Fangzhou, how much land do you need to plant so many seeds? You must buy land?"
I mean, where did you get the money from?
Zhang Lizheng's eyes flashed, and he looked at Lian Fangzhou and waited for her to answer.
Buy land, buy seeds, hire people, a lot of money!
Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "I borrowed money from a relative. It was one of my cousins who married in Shuangliu County. My mother and cousin's mother used to be very good. When I went out the day before yesterday, I borrowed money."
Niu said "Oh" and didn't ask any further questions.
Zhang Lizheng thought for a while, and then asked half-seriously and half-jokingly, "Then why do you only want cotton seeds and not potato seeds?"
Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "Isn't it true that cotton can be spun into clothes, I think it's more suitable to grow!"
Zhang Lizheng laughed, nodded and said with a smile: "You are a conscientious person!"
This reason is not a reason, it can only be said to be his own imagination, but it cannot be said that it is not a reason.
"Okay," Zhang Lizheng nodded and said, "Then I'll tell everyone!"
Lian Fangzhou nodded and said with a smile: "Uncle Li Zheng, can you tell the big guy like this, that if someone doesn't want to plant this cotton, he will come to you within three days and tell me, this is considered a big guy If you give it to me, I will not let the big guy give it in vain. I will give you two cents per pound, and let the big guy come to you to collect it, and make a bet by the way! I will send you the money back here!"
Zhang Lizheng couldn't help but glance at Lian Fangzhou more, nodded and smiled: "You are very thoughtful! That's fine, it will save trouble in the future!"
Zhang Lizheng happily agreed.
Originally, he still had two points of hesitation in his heart. As the saying goes, the same kind of rice raises a hundred different kinds of people, where are there not a few rogues in any village? The superiors asked him to distribute the seeds forcibly, and every household would sell them. If he sold all the seeds to Lian Fangzhou, he would be such a tricky person. When Lian Fangzhou bought the seeds, he would make a fuss about buying them. Where does he go to find seeds for people?
This kind of thing Zhang Li would never do to help others get in trouble.
But Lian Fangzhou is willing to pay two cents per catty to buy it, and he has to draw a bet, so don't be afraid!
"Then I'll send the money over tomorrow!" Lian Fangzhou was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him with a smile.
"Okay!" Zhang Lizheng said with a smile: "When you send the money over, I will inform everyone immediately!"
Lian Fangzhou had no objection, thanked him again, and said goodbye after a few gossips.
