Chapter 129 Harvest

Starting from the first step of washing wool, in the next few days, the several servants in the yard were not idle. They washed wool, dried wool, rolled the wool into a ball, and then spun the wool with a spinning wheel. Of course, during this period, Xiao Lian and Kou Yun were not idle either, and they practiced knitting with bamboo sweater needles and thick cotton thread. However, in just a few days, they learned the knitting skills and even knitted a pair of gloves soon. When Shi Yiwen was most surprised, Xiao Huan, who usually talked the least, learned the fastest learning. Not only did he learn how to weave with a few simple pictures, but he also created some fancy patterns himself.

In fact, it was not only the few who learned to weave. The other servants looked good and started learning. Just as the women learned to weave hand, time flew away, and by the beginning of October, the cabbage in the fields had almost grown.

It was during this period that the original suspicion in the village slowly disappeared. After all, the vegetables in the field were growing well, and they grew bigger and bigger.

Seeing the cabbages growing in the ground, the sarcasm in the village changed again.

"This vegetable must be about seven or eight kilograms."

"Look, at least four or five kilograms must be out..."

"Then can't this acre of land be a few thousand kilograms?"

"That's not, so many dishes, you said you should put them there!"

"That's right, I look at it and it's frozen in the field. Look at the vegetables outside, it seems that they are almost frozen..."

Rumors like this have been circulating in the village these days, and even Shi Yiwen has heard of it.

But he just listened to these things.

He doesn't know how many people in the farm want to make jokes, but sometimes he knows very well that for the people, they will never believe that growing vegetables can make money before they see real benefits.

However, Xiao Lian and the others were very upset when they heard such rumors. Several times when the servants at home mentioned that there were so many cabbages in the fields, she would pout and shout.

"What do you know? The cabbage grown by the young master is delicious. It tastes sweet. You will definitely make a lot of money. You will be jealous of you..."

Will others be jealous then? Shi Yiwen doesn't know, but the cabbage in the field must be collected. In the next few days, the farm, which was supposed to be free in winter, was busy. The men, women, young and old in the village went to the ground to put the cabbage in the field and piled up the cabbage directly in the empty room in the backyard. Shi Yiwen would always put the cabbage in the room into the space when there was no one. This is the method he had just figured out to keep fresh. After all, for such a long time, the vegetables in the supermarket were still fresh. The space where time is still quiet is like a huge preservation warehouse. With it, you don't need to worry about long-term storage.

Of course, in addition to this, Shi Yiwen also dug hundreds of live cellars near the village. The top of the live cellar is more than one meter deep and more than ten meters long, with sorghum poles built into a roof. Such a live cellar can store tens of thousands of kilograms of cabbage. Although it is not as fresh as the cabbage in the space, there is no problem to keep it for several months.

Of course, it is more important to sell these cabbages. After all, this season, the cabbage was 30 to 40 million kilograms, which is because of insufficient fertilizer and a few days later. Otherwise, the yield per mu of 10,000 kilograms would not be a problem.

However, for Shi Yiwen, he was not in a hurry. It doesn’t mean that others were not in a hurry. At least Xiao Lian, who had been indignant, was too impatient early. After all, the empty room at home was already full of cabbage, and there were cabbages in the hundreds of living cellars, and there were even a lot of cabbages confiscated in the fields. They saw it, so they were naturally anxious.

Could it be that I really use these vegetables to raise sheep?

"Young Master, how can we sell so many dishes!"

Once again, looking at the mutton and cabbage on the plate, Xiao Lian ate it and lost the sweetness of the past. Kou Yun also said from the side.

"That's right, young master, if the food is not sold, it will be ruined sooner or later. If the food is rotten, it will be all over by then."

"Don't worry."

Seeing their nervous appearance, Shi Yiwen explained.

"It's only October, and it's not yet the twelfth lunar month. Sometimes it's time to sell it, just wait!"

The colder the weather, the more valuable the dishes are!

This is the simplest truth. Although I have never doubted the young master, Xiaolian still said with some concern.

"Okay, if you don't sell it, how can you sell it? Master, why don't we go and sell vegetables?"

Xiao Lian's words made Shi Yiwen laugh.

"Xiao Lian, look at you're anxious. Since the young master said he was not anxious, the young master must have an idea in his heart. Just wait. I'm right, Master."

Seeing Kou Yun's eyes wandering when he pleased him, Shi Yiwen's heart thumped. This little fox was getting more and more demonic... No, it was charming.

"snort!"

Seeing Kou Yun's appearance, Xiao Lian hummed in dissatisfaction and pouted and looked depressed. Seeing this, Shi Yiwen explained with a smile.

"Xiao Lian, don't worry, we won't sell someone. If I guess it's not bad, someone should go to the city to sell cabbage in the next two days."

It is indeed as Shi Yiwen said, he is not in a hurry, and it does not mean that others are not in a hurry. At least for Wang Degong, who had been waiting for two months, he has been waiting for the day when the cabbage can be harvested. Even a few days ago, he almost had to collect the cabbage in the field and go to the city to sell vegetables.

But in the field, he met his boss. After Shi Yiwen knew that he was worried that the vegetables in the field would be frozen, he specially guided him to dig a cellar and told him how to store cabbage.

Just as the morning was released every day, Wang Degong took out the cabbage from the cellar, and then according to the method of the owner, he placed the cabbages neatly on the cart. The cabbages were placing one by one on the cart, which looked quite fresh and even a little eye-catching.

"Dad, don't say that, this dish looks really eye-catching. It's really not easy to eat fresh dishes in the middle of winter."

The woman's words gave Wang Degong a little bit of confidence.

"Xiao Xi, when the vegetables are sold out, I will go to the cloth shop to pull the cloth for you. I will also have to pull the Songjiang flower cloth waiting for you to make new clothes."

After looking at Wang, thinking about the grievances she suffered during this period, Wang Degong said while saying to his sons.

"Listen to your mother at home, wait for my father to come back tonight and bring you pork heads to eat..."

The road in winter is not easy to walk, but thanks to the dirt road in Zhuangtou, I arrived at the stone pavilion road from Zhangwan to the capital. I drove the ox cart on the official road for an hour and finally arrived at the capital. Although I had not entered the city, it was already very lively outside the city. Looking at the crowds on the street, Wang Degong drove the ox cart uneasy and thought in his heart.

Can this cabbage be sold?

Just then, a somewhat surprised voice came from beside him.
