Chapter 50 Harvest

The people of Xinghua Village are excited. Every family has surplus food and money this year. There is nothing more joyful than this.

Some older generation people even talked about it and finally had some hope.

The whole matter of collecting fish was left to the three brothers of the Yao family. The problem was how to collect and transport it. This required a constitution.

Everyone discussed together and finally decided based on the premature ripening of the rice.

For example: If the Tang family is familiar with oneself, then the Tang family will be harvested first. You can collect up to 40 acres of fish in a day, so you should think of insufficient transportation capacity.

The Yao family has only 8 acres of land, and there are not as many fish as last year. Although Ning Yue secretly released some, in order not to get a look, she had about 30 acres of land.

Based on 600 fish, the food left and the food given to people was sold, and the weight was less than 500, totaling fifty taels of silver. Here, the shopkeeper Tian calculated it at 100 yuan per piece.

Other villagers are calculated at 80 yuan per person, while those below one pound are calculated at 50 yuan.

Take Chen Qijin's family as an example. Their family only has 2 acres of paddy fields. Logically speaking, there are only 100 fish, but no one is a fool. They will put more than a dozen or twenty more. Last year, the Yao family put 100.

Now every family basically has about 80 fish fry counts.

Chen Qijin's family sold 60 items, 80-word items, 10 items, 50-word items, totaling 5 taels, 300-word items, which was something their family dared not think about. In the past, if they could earn 500 a year, they could spend a year on living expenses.

Others are fish fry caught in the river weighs less than a pound. Leave it to eat it yourself, which can be considered meat and can nourish the body.

The most money in the village is the family of Zhong, Zheng and Yu. More than 400 acres of paddy fields in the village are from these three families.

So there are also people who can get more than 100 taels of silver. At this moment, it is really real money and dazzling.

Every time, how many fish in each family, how many fish are more than two pounds, and how many fish are more than one pound are calculated by Ningjia, Ningting, Ning Mu, Ninghe.

Ning Yue asked her father to cut a small notebook with paper that was 20 cm long and 10 cm wide. He taught the four brothers to draw squares and make them into a simple format.

The name, two kilograms, one kilogram, how many kilograms were received, and how many kilograms were finally handed over to Zuixianglou, and how much silver was received, all of them were clearly clear.

The four brothers have been studying for a year, and now they have a busy farming holiday. They should also make it useful for their studies. They should not just read but study hard.

So, the village saw six brothers running around in the fields of each family with pens in their hands, with small notebooks.

You need to use ink when writing. There is no ink here. In the end, Ning Ting thought it out. Grind the ink thickly, pour it into a bamboo tube as thick as a thumb, wrap it with oil paper around the slag and plug it into a plug, so that you can write it at any time.

But there is a big disadvantage. It will settle over time and you have to stir it twice each time.

Some children in the village were so envious. The little kids who learned two words last time were pestering the Ning family and teaching them.

It was really unbearable that the look of desire was so eager that the Ning family agreed to go to the glutinous yard to teach them every day, and they would learn it themselves.

Therefore, in addition to teaching their own families, the four brothers of the Yao family also had to teach the children in the village.

It was in the limelight for a while.

The shopkeeper Tian said that each fish was 20 yuan more than 10,000 yuan, and the whole village sold about 20,000 yuan and got 400 taels of silver.

In addition to the wages given to someone and the money rented for carriages, there are about 394 taels left.

The shopkeeper Qian Tian gave the silver notes, and Ning Yue saw the so-called hundred-dollar notes for the first time.

The paper stamp is very fine, white and thick, and has a special pattern of the money house. Ning Yue took it to her hand and looked at the fire, thinking about whether there would be a dark pattern like in her previous life.

Not to mention that there is really, I just can't see clearly what it is, and I don't know how it was printed.

After harvesting the rice, drying it, packing and cages, it is a year's ration after paying the tax, and no one will be careless.

Then there are sorghum, millet, soybean and other crops on the mountain. They all have to be recovered one by one. Some eat them and some pay taxes. In short, there will be no waste of food.

The apricot trees in the village harvest fruits in mid-September. At that time, it was the naughty time for children. Everyone liked to climb up the trees to pick apricots and eat them.

Some of the boys who are really monkey in their homes are picked and eaten as soon as they are ripe, and there is very little left when they are truly mature.

Yao Ningyue's family also has two apricot trees, which were planted when grandpa and grandma got married. They could be picked by Ning Yue and her sister-in-law's house by reaching out from the window.

Because the apricot trees are next to their own yard and have walls, there are no children to pick them.

The six brothers of the Yao family occasionally pick some, but usually they wait until they are cooked.

Today everyone is at home, climbing trees is Yao Ningting’s favorite. He just goes up and eats while picking.

The fruits of the old apricot tree that has been around for 20 or 30 years have large and sweet, golden and golden. Everyone decided to make dried apricots, which is also a kind of snack in winter.

There are also almonds, which can also be made into snacks. Almonds are nuts, which have the effects of relieving asthma and cough, clearing the intestines and stools, and beauty.

But no one eats almonds here, Ning Yue plans to try it out with salty flavor.

In addition, I also want to make apricot jam. You can apply it when eating steamed buns, and you can apply it in the morning to make cakes. It is sweet and sour, delicious, and it is a unique choice.

But just two apricot trees in the Yao family were impossible. Ning Yue asked his third brother Ning and his friends to tell him to put away the amygdala peeled from his home for one or two cents.

You can buy two pieces of malt sugar for two cents, but you can’t eat apricot kernels. Of course, you are willing to do such a good thing. Within a few days, you piled up dozens of kilograms of apricot kernels.

The apricot kernel was about to be removed, so Ning Yue took a machete to smash it. Because there was no hammer at home, she could only use the machete back.

This scared the adults so much that the second uncle even shouted: "Yue'er, what are you doing? What are you doing? Don't want your hands."

Ning Yue: "I want to make delicious food, please help me."

"I said, why do you say someone bought apricot kernel? It turned out that it was you, who helped you?"

Ning Yue said weakly: "The third brother bought it for me, I really want to make delicious food."

Second uncle: "I'm afraid of you, I'll help you, so much, when will I have to suck it?"

Ning Yue acted spoiled; "I'll try it, try it."

"Hmph" The second uncle still took the machete and started to slap it.

Several people shook their heads and went to get some things to suck. They sucked some when they had nothing to do. When it was almost two pounds, Ning Yue would have to make a lot of delicious food.

Almonds cannot be eaten raw and are toxic. They need to be soaked in water for two days. They have to change water every day before they can be cooked.

After cooking, you have to peel it, or you can drain the water and make salted almonds without peeling it.

Ning Yue directed her mother to fry the salt apricots. Everyone thought it was good, crispy and fragrant.

Someone took the initiative to suck the core behind.
