Supermarket Space: Traveling Through the Ages and Marrying a Rough Guy
Chapter 168: develop in a good direction"Teacher Song Xi, have you utilized the three acres of sandy land behind the school? What is suitable for planting there?" Qian Weimin looked at Song Xi expectantly.
Because there are too many sandy lands that cannot be planted in Ping An Village, if they can all be used, then everyone's living standards can really rise to another level.
Song Xi certainly understands Qian Weimin's meaning, but she can't agree to it now, after all, Mu Xiuyu Lin Feng will destroy it.
"I just planted some broad beans and potatoes to see if I can grow them. I plan to go up the mountain to find some small wild fruit seedlings and cultivate them after the spring. Although I can't make money, it can make the children in the village sweet. Ah! Besides, going up the mountain is still dangerous for children, if it can be cultivated in school, everyone will not have to go up the mountain in the future."
"Okay, if you still have something you want to plant and lack space, you can tell the village, and the village will definitely arrange it for you."
Qian Weimin found that Song Xi was a bit talented in planting, so he supported her decision very much. Besides, these decisions she made were all for the sake of the village.
"Then thank you, Uncle Qian. If I need it, I will definitely not be polite to Uncle Qian." Song Xi really needs a lot of land.
Because the grapefruit seeds and orange seeds she planted on the roof of the supermarket have germinated, and they can be transplanted outside in the spring of the next year.
At that time, a large area of ??land will be needed. No matter how big the roof of the supermarket is, it cannot bear thousands of grapefruit trees!
The school has classes five days a week, and Saturdays and Sundays are holidays.
Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua have already started to help Song Xi dig wild vegetables and winter bamboo shoots. In winter, there are not many wild vegetables in the wild, only shallots and shepherd's purse. Song Xi asked Zhou Xiaoshu to dig them for her.
The reason why there are several kinds of wild vegetables in the vegetable garden at home is because she has spiritual spring water, and the wild vegetables watered with spiritual spring water are not afraid of the cold and still grow vigorously.
Because there are nine shelducks and eleven rabbits at home, the demand for wild vegetables is quite large. Zhou Yi also knows this, so Song Xi asked them to come to the house to trade.
As for the winter bamboo shoots, Song Xi only occasionally feeds some to the rabbits as snacks, and temporarily stores the others in the supermarket until he is free.
And this Saturday, Song Xi went to Xu Yunying's house with a basket on her back. In the yard of Xu Yunying's house, the vegetables Song Xi gave were planted in lush greenery, and Xu Yunying was washing clothes by the well at the moment.
Most of the wells in Ping’an Village were dug by the villagers themselves, because the well digging team needed money to dig a well, and there was a lot of it. No one was willing to spend so much money to dig a well.
"Aunt Yunying." Song Xi called out as she walked in.
"Xiaoxi, why are you here?" All three children in the family went to dig wild vegetables, and Xu Yunying was the only one left. She wiped off the water from her hands and hurried over to close the courtyard door.
Song Xi took off the heavy pannier from her back, panted and said, "Aunt Yunying, I have something to ask you, is that okay?"
"Xiaoxi, if you have anything to say, you can just say it." Her three children are now taught so well by Song Xi, so how could she refuse if Song Xi had something to do?
Song Xi lifted the burlap bag on the back pan, revealing the densely packed snails that were clean and shiny inside, "Aunt Yunying, remove the tails of the snails, it costs a penny a catty, are you willing to do it? If you want to do it, I will You can send one or two baskets to my aunt every day."
"This..." Xu Yunying looked at Song Xi, her pupils trembling, was it what she was thinking?
Song Xi knew that Xu Yunying was confused, so she explained, "My classmates in the city don't have enough supplies, and they don't actually have much to eat, so let me help them find some wild products from the mountains, but they have to go to school. My family has to go to work again, and I don’t have time to deal with these things, so I want me to clean them up for them. Now that I’m getting acquainted with Aunt Yunying, I think Auntie is a diligent and clean person, so leave this matter to Auntie , I can relax and feel relieved."
"Xiaoxi, I gave this money to you, then you..." Something so smelly of mud costs a penny a catty. Could it be that Song Xi let her earn all the money?
"The price my classmates give is three cents per catty, one cent for picking up the snails, one cent for me who washes the snails, and one cent for Aunt Yunying who is responsible for removing the snail tails. We all earn money, and all Aunt Yunying don't have to worry .”
Song Xi really didn't have time to deal with the tails of the snails one by one, which happened to allow Xu Yunying to earn some pocket money.
If it’s one hundred catties a day, that’s one yuan, and after a month, it’s thirty yuan. How can it be pocket money? It’s a proper income for urban workers.
"That's fine." As long as Song Xi doesn't rob Song Xi of the money he should be earning.
"Aunt Yunying, I have fifty catties here, so I will give it to Aunt Yunying first. Let's try to see how much we can handle in a day, and then I will send as much to Aunt Yunying." Song Xi handed over fifty cents and fifty cents. Jin snail stayed behind, then turned and went back.
Xu Yunying was very excited while holding the loose fifty cents.
She was afraid that she would not be able to support three children by herself, but now everything is developing in a good direction.
Now every month on the 9th village, five yuan is distributed, and the five yuan belongs to her in her hands.
When I was at Zhou Dazhu's house before, Zhou Dazhu's mother was in charge of the family's money. No matter how much work points she worked or how much money she earned, it had nothing to do with me.
After leaving Zhou Dazhu's house, she can finally manage the money by herself and be the master of the house.
And now there is another job to remove the screw tail, and their life will not be bad in the future.
Xu Yunying washed the clothes of several people and put them on the bamboo poles, then brought scissors, and began to remove the tails of the snails one by one.
Song Xi was not idle when she got home, she called Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua over, and then asked Zhou Xiaoshu to call Mo Jingxiang and Mo Ziqiu over to help her dry potato chips together.
Song Xi took out the 640 catties of potatoes that he had bought at the market twice before, and first picked the good potatoes, the ones with scars, and cut off the scars with a knife, and peeled off the bad parts with a knife.
Two eight-year-old children, Zhou Xiaohua and Mo Ziqiu, were in charge of washing and peeling. Mo Jingxiang and Zhou Xiaoshu were in charge of slicing the potatoes into thin slices, while Song Xi was in charge of the next two processes. Potato chips are dried and spread out on a drying tool and placed in the yard to be exposed to the sun.
Although the winter sun is not very strong now, she is just putting on a show. After the children go back, she will directly transfer the big dustpan to the roof of the supermarket, because the temperature there is suitable.
Several people were busy until noon, and finished processing more than 600 catties of potatoes. Seeing so many large dustpans drying in the yard, Song Xi had a satisfied smile on his face.
