Song Tan Jishi

Chapter 198

It was getting dark.

Li Baoni came down from the mountain in a hurry with a tea basket in her arms, and weighed the hook as soon as she got home——

"Two taels a catty."

This is her usual efficiency. To be precise, most people in the village also have this efficiency.

Spreading the tea leaves on the plastic sheet on the floor to dry, she walked into the bedroom again and asked her husband who was recuperating on the bed:

"How is it? Can you get up and go to the toilet today?"

The man on the bed showed a slight smile: "It's on, the waist doesn't hurt much, and I can walk around. I feel more relaxed every day, and it won't be long before I get better."

Li Baoni also breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's fine."

She rambled on: "Now that the price of tea has dropped, you only pay 30 yuan for a catty of sprouts. What can you do with sixty or seventy yuan a day?"

"The vegetable garden has also been tidied up. I'm still thinking about waiting until I enter Futian. If you can raise it well, I'll just go out and work."

As she spoke, she deftly and skillfully helped her husband stand up slowly, and then walked a few steps slowly:

"I saw on Douyin that many factories are recruiting workers. I'm just 50 years old, and I'm just at the right age. I can earn more than 20 yuan an hour. If I work more overtime, I might earn 7,000 to 8,000 yuan a month." !"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh:

"You said, how come the tea leaves in Wulan's family grow so well this year? I heard from some of their tea pickers that they can pick two or three catties in a casual afternoon. The buds are so thick."

She couldn't do it, her hands were quick, but the tea leaves couldn't keep up.

Her man laughed: "That's right, my waist is broken, and it will prevent you from earning a lot of money."

With Li Baonier's quick work, if it weren't for taking care of herself lying in bed, she would definitely go to Wulan's house to help pick tea for her in the spring.

One hundred and fifty a day is much more stable than picking tea by yourself. This is the price given by fellow villagers without food and lodging.

In previous years, the tea pickers came to pay for food and lodging, and they were only paid one hundred or even less on a daily basis.

However, with the promotion of famous teas one after another, and their backcountry is getting less and less developed, so the price of tea has dropped again and again, and most of them are used to make up for famous teas.

As a result, their local villagers gradually couldn't afford to hire tea pickers. Now all year round, there is not much income.

Every household that can move around has gone out to work.

Just thinking about it, I heard a shout from outside the yard: "Bao Ni, Bao Ni!"

Li Baoni was taken aback, then hurried out: "I'm here, what's the matter?"

Just after asking, I couldn't help showing a smile: "Are you going to hire someone to work at home tomorrow? Don't worry, I'll be there early in the morning for whatever you want to do."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Ulan expectantly.

Now the villagers are willing to work for Song Tan's family.

The food is good and the money they pay is much more cost-effective than working outside. Unfortunately, this job is in twos and threes, and it is not sustainable and not stable enough.

But Ulan shook her head, thinking about the upcoming wealthy clients at home, she made it clear in a few words:

"This is a fisherman our Yanping found on the Internet. He has no place to sleep at night. I thought that your house has a solar water heater and wireless network. It should be possible to arrange someone to live in your house? I will help and ask."

"Fifty a night, no need to prepare meals, do you think it's okay?"

Li Baoni was overjoyed, why not? !

The yards in the countryside are large, and her house is the same as that of Song's house, which has been built for many years.

In addition to the place where the children live, there is an extra room for the tea pickers, which is now full of debris.

But that's okay.

"My son's room is clean. I'll come over later with a quilt."

Seeing that she was in a hurry to clean up, Ulan smiled and said, "No rush, this young man hasn't eaten yet. After dinner at my house tonight, I'll ask Yanping to bring him over."

"Take it easy, don't worry."

Li Baoni was very happy, so she couldn't help but ask one more question:

"Ulan, I saw that the onions and garlic in your vegetable garden are growing very well. When are you going to sell vegetables?"

How could Ulan bother to look at her vegetable garden!

She only has tea in her eyes now.

Hearing the words, he was also taken aback: "Then I don't know, Tan Tan is responsible for this matter, and she is the only one who can drive at home."

Li Baoni smiled embarrassedly: "I want to ask, if she sells vegetables again, is it convenient for her to send us to the hospital? It's time for a review."

What a big deal!

"I'll go back and ask later. I'll send you a message when I'm done."

Ulan couldn't help but said to her again: "If you want something to do, just say it directly, you don't have to rush to sell vegetables."

When people say polite words, Li Baoni is also polite.

Usually there is a car in the village, but the village-to-village bus has to go around the town every day, and she is quite embarrassed:

"You also know that his waist is uncomfortable after sitting for a long time. I'm not in a hurry to re-examine in a day or two. Just let me know when it's convenient for me."

The problem of the waist is indeed a major issue, after all, it is the strong labor of the family. If the waist is broken, it will not be able to make money, and Li Baoni will be tied up.

Knowing the situation, Ulan returned home in a hurry, grabbed Song Tan and asked:

"The garlic sprouts and green onions in your field can be sold, when are you going to sell vegetables?"

Song Tan would go for a walk in the vegetable garden every day, and get in touch with the two treasures by the way. She knew how well the vegetables were growing.

Now is the time when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, and the green leaves are sprouting so fast, and she still has aura to give birth every night...

No, what I ate today was a few heads of onions and garlic pulled directly from the vegetable garden, as well as coriander.

As for Nepeta, Aunt Lianhua also went to the field to pick it up in the afternoon, planning to make tofu soup tonight. Look at Qi Cousin's satisfied face, the quality of this batch of dishes is better than wild vegetables!

Not to mention the onion and garlic, the cabbage will be delivered in a few days.

But the first to grow are these seasonings, shallots, garlic sprouts, nepeta, and coriander.

The growth cycle of ginger is longer, and it has not grown well yet.

Among them, shallots and garlic seedlings have the highest yield per mu. If they are grown well, they can grow three or four crops a year, and the yield per mu will be no problem.

Think about it, it's time to find a designer to polish the house, and it's safe to have more money in your hand.

That being the case——

"Let's go tomorrow, what's the matter? What kind of food do you want to buy?"

It has become a habit for her to go to the street to buy vegetables every morning.

Ulan told about Li Baoni.

Song Tan nodded: "No problem, the vegetable market is not far from the People's Hospital, I will deliver it directly to them without delay."

This is why everyone knows that living in the village is stress-free and comfortable, but everyone still wants to go to the big city.

Besides education, another most important factor is medical care.

Without a car, it is almost impossible to move when you are injured or hurt.
