80s Taoism
Chapter 170 Another Expression of Kindness
"Let me tell you. There are two main types of grain, one is the conventional variety and the other is the hybrid variety. Although the yield of the conventional variety is lower, the growth period is shorter, and it matures earlier. The hybrid grain variety has a higher yield, but it matures later. What I mean is that your land is just a conventional variety. Although the yield is a little lower, it matures early. When the time comes, your uncle and I will harvest the millet for you. Otherwise, everyone's millet will ripen at the same time. Not at home..." Zhang Manyin was actually thinking about Zhang Jiaohua. Although the output is a little lower, at least there is no need to worry about not being able to take it home. After all, there is now one threshing machine for one family and three households.
In previous years, they were all combined to engage in double grabbing, and there was a relationship of exchanging labor force. Now Zhang Jiaohua's parents have gone to Guangdong, which naturally broke the implicit relationship at this level. Originally, Zhang Jiaohua should not have planted this field, but now Zhang Jiaohua did so. It seemed that Zhang Jiaohua was clearly trying to take advantage of his grandfather and uncle. At that time, there may indeed be gossip.
But Zhang Jiaohua didn't intend to take advantage of them. When harvesting rice last year, Zhang Jiaohua already knew that there were several golden tigers, and it would not be difficult for him to harvest more than one mu of rice by himself. Therefore, he insisted on buying rice with a higher yield.
"There is a difference of several hundred catties per mu of land! The fertilizer money has come out. No, I want to grow hybrid grain seeds." Zhang Jiaohua said resolutely.
"Beggar, if you don't listen to me, when the time comes, when it's time to engage in double scrambling (scrambling to harvest early rice and rush to plant late rice), if your uncle's family refuses to help you, don't regret it." Zhang Manyin warned.
"I don't plan to ask them for help. I can do it myself. I just plant hybrid grain seeds. The yield varies a lot!" Zhang Jiaohua decided that even the cattle could not turn around. Seeing that Zhang Jiaohua's attitude was so firm, Zhang Manyin had no choice but to follow Zhang Jiaohua.
Zhang Manyin learned to be good this time, and did not wait until the seed company to discuss with Zhang Jiaohua, but talked about it on the road. Otherwise, when it comes to the seed company, Zhang Jiaohua is a bull, and he doesn't know where to put his old face.
"Then it's up to you. When the time comes, don't blame grandpa for not reminding you." Zhang Manyin found that his current endurance limit has increased a lot. Zhang Manyin held a pole with two snakeskin bags tied to it. Zhang Jiaohua also held a smaller pole in his hand. The snakeskin bag was not tied to the pole, but carried on his shoulder. There were some things in the snakeskin bag. Among the items contained was a piece of cured wild boar, as well as several amulets. The last time I accepted Luo Yongming's hospitality, I troubled Luo Changjun to send it back. At that time, there were only a few Anzhai talismans left before the Chinese New Year. Later, the wolves stopped coming, and no one wanted these Anzhai charms.
Zhang Jiaohua knew that Luo Changjun was a policeman at the police station, so it was somewhat dangerous, so it would be most appropriate to give him an amulet. Unfortunately, Luo Changjun was in a hurry that day, so Zhang Jiaohua had no time to make him an amulet. This time when he was going to go to the street, Zhang Jiaohua specially made a few amulets last night. After buying the seeds later, they will be sent to Luo Yongming.
The seed company's business is particularly good. These days, good seeds are in high demand. Farmers who came to the street to buy seeds formed a long queue at the gate of the seed company. From time to time, someone who has acquaintances in the seed company asked the relationship to go through the back door, and bought the best-selling seeds in advance without queuing. Those who line up dare not speak out, after all, this is in someone else's territory. Those who walked through the back door were arrogant instead. The people in the seed company are state cadres, how can they care about the feelings of a few honest farmers? I'm not afraid of these mud legs making trouble at all. Anyone who dares to make trouble will be driven away directly.
It was not easy for Zhang Manyin and his grandson to arrive. Zhang Manyin planted five acres of land, bought a conventional variety for two acres of land, and a hybrid variety for three acres of land. Originally, he planned to plant four mu of hybrid rice, but now he gave up that one mu to this stubborn grandson. Zhang Manyin is an honest farmer who can't express his emotions with words, but he expresses his love for his stubborn grandson in the simplest way.
Zhang Jiaohua bought rice seeds from a paddy field of more than one mu, and then bought some vegetable seeds under the impatient expression of the salesperson. Although Zhang Manyin felt that it was a waste to buy these seeds, he did not stop it. Because he knew he couldn't stop it.
In addition to rice seeds, Zhang Jiaohua also bought cucumbers, green beans, green beans, bitter gourd, loofah, wax gourd, soybeans, mung beans... all kinds of vegetable and bean seeds, which cost more than ten yuan. Seeing Zhang Manyin felt a little heartbroken.
Seeds are too expensive, and farmers generally keep their own seeds. Because for them, these fruits and vegetables are eaten by themselves, and no matter how high or low the output is, as long as it is in season, basically, the output will always be far greater than the consumption. Therefore, the output of these fruits and vegetables is meaningless to them. As for taste, farmers fresh from starvation are rarely picky eaters.
"If you want to grow these crops, you can go directly to the field to dig vegetable seedlings. The vegetable seeds from the seed company are extremely expensive. Aren't you wasting money?" Zhang Manyin scolded Zhang Jiaohua for his wasteful behavior.
"Grandpa, don't you see that the cucumber painted on it is much longer than the one you planted?" Zhang Jiaohua pointed to the picture on the packaging bag.
"It's all drawn. You'll know when you plant it. In fact, it's the same as what we planted. Besides, no matter how low the yield is, we can't win. Why do we need such a high yield?" Zhang Manyin said dismissively.
"Look, how big is this peanut? There are at least four peanuts inside. The seeds only cost a few dollars. By then, my production will be twice as high as yours, and the seed money will be back in no time." Zhang Jiaohua took out the peanut seeds and showed Zhang Manyin.
This is really grandma not angry, grandpa will be angry too. Zhang Manyin stared at Zhang Jiaohua, raised his hand for a long time, finally put it down, and muttered, "I'm too lazy to tell you."
"I'm hungry. I want to eat dumplings." Zhang Jiaohua didn't seem to see Zhang Manyin's anger at all, and his eyes were looking around all the time.
"I have no money." Zhang Manyin was still angry, how could he be in the mood to buy food for his naughty grandson?
"I have. Boss, I want two bowls of dumplings." Zhang Jiaohua went to a stall by the side of the road and sat down. There are not many cars on the street, and even on the side of the road, there will not be a lot of dust. The boss pours a basin of water on the road from time to time to keep the dust from kicking up.
The owner of the dumpling stall looked at Zhang Manyin's reaction. If an adult doesn't speak, a child's words are useless.
