Chapter 434 Rushing to plant grass
The little fish shows that aphids are easy to plant. Soak the grass seeds in water for two days. After the grass seeds sprout short buds, sprinkle the grass seeds directly into the ground.
Even if the price of aphid grass is low, it can still be sold for six cents per catty, which is twice as expensive as soybeans. In the eyes of Third Grandpa, such a price is really a good source of income.
Since it is a profitable source of income, the third grandfather will be interested in it, for fear of not doing well.
Gu Jinli looked at the medicinal materials given by Aunt Wu and said: "Third Grandpa, this aphid grass is a medicinal material and a kind of grass. You don't need to take care of it carefully. Just scatter the grass seeds in the bamboo forest, in the open space in front of the door, and on the side of the path. It can be used It can grow. It is harvested once every three months, and it is not afraid of frost or snow. The grass roots will not die and will grow again next year."
This is one of the reasons why aphid grass seeds are difficult to buy.
Where there is aphid grass, people dont sow the seeds at all, and the grass roots will sprout by themselves, so there is really no need to take care of it carefully.
The third grandma was very happy to hear this: "Is it really such a good seed? Then we will make a fortune."
Gu Jinli said: "We can't even talk about getting rich. It just means that it doesn't cost any land. If your family is poor, you can plant a piece of land in the open space in front of your house and behind your house. You can harvest it three times a year. Each time you harvest about 300 kilograms, one harvest." You can also make an income of five taels of silver every year."
Fifty taels of silver! The third grandmother was shocked: Oh, look, this grass is worthless, but after one year, there is so much money.
The third grandpa was also very happy: "This does not occupy the field, and the five taels of silver this year are as white as white. When will we start sowing grass seeds?"
Gu Jinli said: "Call a few families here tonight and divide the grass seeds. We will soak the grass seeds in the evening and sow the grass seeds the day after tomorrow."
Sure, Im going to notify a few families and ask them to bring money to get grass seeds at night. The third grandfather is a restless person, so he immediately got up and went to notify several families.
Just when he informed several families to get grass seeds, he met the village chief.
Ever since Village Chief He made a fortune from the soy products and spices produced by Gu's workshop, he likes to hang out at the end of the village when he has nothing to do, hoping to cultivate a relationship with the Qin Gu Luotian family and let the Qin Gu Luotian family draw him. What a handful they have.
"Brother Gu, your family wants to plant grass?" Village Chief He was confused when he first heard about this, but he knew that Qin Gu Luotian and his family were capable. Even if they went crazy and planted grass, the grass would still be there. It must be profitable, so he immediately became interested and asked: "What kind of grass do you want to grow? Can it be sold for money? How much does it cost per pound? Come to our He family."
Third Grandpa thought of what Gu Jinli had told him and said, "What I want to plant is a kind of grass that can repel insects. That girl Xiaoyu wants to plant it, saying it can make some money."
"It's Xiaoyu who said he wanted to plant it. Needless to say, it will definitely make money. Let's go to your house and I'll tell Xiaoyu in person." As soon as Village Chief He heard that there was money to be made, he immediately put away his The crutch became stronger with age, and he took the third grandfather to Gu Jinli's house.
Not long after, Village Chief He came to Gu Jinli's house. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he shouted: "Little Yu girl, I heard that your family is going to plant grass. Do you have any seeds? Give some to your grandfather, the village chief."
Gu Jinli had just finished checking the precious medicinal materials given by Aunt Wu when he heard the voice of Village Chief He, got up and walked out of the main room.
The third grandfather said: "I met the village chief He on the road. He wanted to follow our family to plant aphid grass."
Gu Jinan came out with a stool, placed the stool in the yard, and said to the village chief: "You always sit down."
"Hey." After Village Chief He sat down, he asked Gu Jinli: "Little Yu girl, tell me, what is the aphids?"
Gu Jinli told the village chief He what the aphid is, what it does, how much it costs per pound, and how to grow it. Finally, he corrected himself: "Aphrodisiac is a medicinal material."
Village Chief He was shocked after hearing this: "There is such a good thing. It doesn't take up any land, it can grow on the open ground, and it can be harvested three times a year. I estimate that I can earn five taels of silver! Oh, yo, little one Yu girl, you must be the reincarnation of the God of Wealth, how could you find such a good thing?"
The average rural farmer has very little land at home, and any land they have is used to grow food. No one has ever thought about growing medicinal materials. But this aphid does not need to waste the field, it can be planted in the open space in front of the house and behind the house.
"Every household in this village does not have open space in front of or behind the house. Everyone has it. In addition to these open spaces, there are open spaces everywhere in the village, including on the roadside, by the pond, by the field ridges, and by the river. This bright aphid Grass is very suitable for our village. We must plant it!" Village Chief He was so excited that his face turned red. He had always wanted to find a way for the villagers to make a living that could be passed down from generation to generation, and this kind of grass would be the perfect one.
Village Chief He begged Gu Jinli: "Little Yu girl, I heard that you have grass seeds, please give some to the village chief's grandfather."
Gu Jinli said: "Okay."
"What?" Village Chief He was stunned. He couldn't believe that he deserved such happiness.
Gu Jinli said: "I said, I can spread some grass seeds for you to grow."
She needs a lot of aphids to make mosquito coils. Just a few families cannot grow that much aphids, so it is good for her to let the He family grow them together.
but
"Village Chief, it's hard to find this kind of grass seed. Our family asked someone to buy it from other places. The grass seeds are limited. It's impossible for every household to grow this kind of grass this year. I can only give you 100 kilograms of grass seed. This is You can keep one hundred catties of grass seeds for your own cultivation, or you can share them with other honest He family members. Dont give them to those dishonest people from low-income households."
Village Chief He hurriedly promised: "If you don't give it, I won't give it. Our two families have done business many times. We know your rules and only give them to those who are honest, obedient and willing to do the job. Don't worry."
Gu Jinli added: "Besides this, I have several conditions."
First, the aphid grass grown by the villagers must be sold to me first. If I dont want it, the villagers can sell the aphid grass to the pharmacy.
"Second, the aphids must be harvested and dried according to my requirements, and there should be no weeds. If someone, for the sake of extravagant money or trying to save trouble, fails to follow the requirements, or passes off shoddy goods, I will not accept the goods, and I still have the right to do so. Pull out all the aphids in his house."
Third, you must sign a deed with me on behalf of the He family to ensure that the aphids delivered by the villagers are all good. If there is a problem with the aphids, you will be responsible.
She didn't have time to take care of too many things, so she set very harsh conditions and asked the village chief He to take charge of the families who grew aphids in the village and share her responsibilities.
If Gu Jinli dared to mention these conditions to Village Chief He before, Village Chief He would have turned away in anger. But the village chief He's family has been doing business with Gu's workshop for half a year, and they have long known Gu Jinli's rules. If Gu Jinli didn't sign the contract with him, what would he think was wrong?
"Sure, I'll do as you say." Village Chief He agreed happily and said to Gu Jin'an: "Brother An, please write the deed. After signing the deed, the old man can take the grass seeds back. My family is Theres a lot of open space.
