Chapter 118 Planting something that can earn money
Although Lin Ting just asked this, Shen Qingzhou tacitly thought the same thing as her.
Such a large estate requires careful consideration.
"Let's plant soybeans. At this time, soybeans are the only ones that can survive."
Soybeans?
Lin Ting thought about what could be done with soybeans?
When the soybeans grow up, she can sell them as edamame, but this is not a rare thing and probably won’t sell well.
Soybeans can be made into tofu when they are ripe. Does this mean that we will have to sell tofu specifically just for soybeans?
No, this is not the direction Lin Ting wants to develop.
"It's okay to grow a little soybean for food, but I don't think it's a good idea to grow it on a large scale."
After Lin Ting heard this, they both fell silent. After about an incense stick of time, Lin Ting spoke again.
"Let's go to the farm tomorrow. If you really don't know what to plant, plant mung beans.
In this area, mung beans should be able to be grown twice a year. Mung beans can be used to make mung bean soup for Chayu, and can also be used to make many other things."
Lin Ting suddenly thought of the Tea House and decided to plant some mung beans.
The Jade Muscle Powder she made for Lin Lin made her whiter and more beautiful, and many women who came to the Tea House for tea noticed it.
They asked one by one, and when the Tea House first opened, Lin Lin clearly didn't look like this, so what did she use?
It can whiten the skin and make it more delicate and firm. Lin Ting thinks this is a business opportunity.
"Think about it first. It doesn't matter what you plant."
Lin Ting bought the farm and planted mung beans. The mung bean soup and mung bean cakes in the Tea House alone could not use up all the mung beans produced in the farm in a year.
But Shen Qingzhou doesn't have to worry, because Lin Ting always comes up with something he can't imagine.
the next day!
If Lin Ting is at home, she will go to the new house to help Aunt Jiang and others cook.
She did everything from washing vegetables to doing other things. Because of these actions, the villagers felt that she was very approachable and did not act superior to them just because she had money.
"Lin Ting, I'll be the one to handle things like fires."
Ah Hua saw Lin Ting carrying a large bundle of firewood into the shed, and she was really worried that she wouldn't be able to start a fire.
Soon the whole Xiaopeng was filled with smoke.
"No, it's just a fire. I can do it."
When facing the villagers he doesn't dislike, Lin Ting always has a smile on his face and speaks in a pleasant tone.
"Lin Ting, do you really know how to do it?"
Ah Hua was still worried. The fire was lit to make breakfast for the workers so they could finish eating early and go to work earlier.
Don’t delay your work because you missed breakfast. She is more anxious about this than Lin Ting.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. You've forgotten that I used to eat secretly every day in the Shen family. I've perfected my fire-making skills."
Hearing this, the people who were cooking in the small shed couldn't help laughing. Lin Ting has become a better person now. She even jokes about her past. She is really different now.
Today's breakfast was noodles with pickles and purslane salad. Unfortunately, there was no chili pepper. Lin Ting always felt like something was missing.
"Mother-in-law, it's almost time. Please call everyone to have breakfast. I'll go get Qingzhou and Xiaobao."
When Lin Ting and Yang Xiuxiu came to the new house, Shen Wanyi was still asleep, so Lin Ting asked Shen Qingzhou to look after her at home.
If she passed the noodles to them, they would clump together in a short while, so she decided to let them eat it instead.
When I returned home, I saw that Shen Qingzhou and Shen Wanyi had both changed into old clothes. Shen Qingzhou had two fishing rods, a sickle, a small hoe and other things beside him.
Lin Ting looked at those things and walked over to the two of them.
"Are you going fishing? Or are you going to work?"
"Mom, Daddy said you were going to see Zhuangzi. We'll go with you. Daddy and I will go to Ningjiang to fish for you."
The Wang family built a road leading directly to Ningjiang Manor, which can be reached directly by carriage. It is a rare opportunity for these two people to relax, so it would be nice for Lin Ting to take them there for some fun.
"Okay! Let's go have breakfast first. After breakfast, we'll go together. Then I'll help you dig earthworms."
After saying that, Lin Ting loaded all the things they had prepared onto the carriage, and she drove the carriage to the new house. After breakfast, they wouldn't have to go home to pull the carriage.
When they got to the new house, someone asked them where they were going, and Lin Ting just said he was going fishing with Shen Qingzhou.
Shen Qingzhou's face was full of smiles. He really enjoyed the feeling of Lin Ting always talking about him.
Seeing that they were going there in a carriage, Yang Xiuxiu prepared three stools for Lin Ting and Shen Wanyi.
Fishing is just for fun. People cast nets in the river every day, but there are almost no fish.
Lin Ting drove the carriage and walked towards Ningjiang Manor relying on her memory.
The grass on both sides of the road was very short and barely grew. As soon as it grew a little, it was cut by the villagers passing by.
Even though no one has a cow, this has become a tacit understanding. Even if there is no grass growing, the road is wide and easy to walk on.
The closer to Ningjiang Village, the better the road is. It was all built with money from the Wang family.
But when she sat on the footboard of the carriage, she saw a large dark rice field in the distance. That was her Ningjiang Manor.
"This burns so cleanly."
Shen Qingzhou glanced sideways, already prepared in his heart.
"It's a little cleaner."
Lin Ting clicked his tongue, and finally stopped the carriage a little above the cowshed on the farm, and took out Shen Qingzhou's fishing rod, sickle and small hoe.
"Give it to me. Don't flatter me too much. I can actually do a lot of things."
The ridges of Zhuangzi's fields are very large, and Shen Qingzhou can walk a little on the flat ground without needing someone to watch over him all the time.
"Can you really do it? How about I take you to the river and dig some earthworms for you."
Shen Qingzhou took the small hoe from her hand: "No need, I can do it."
"Mom, I can do it too. Xiaobao is the best."
"Then you two be careful and call me if anything happens."
The two of them were digging for earthworms next to the cowshed. As long as they turned over some soil or a small stone, they could find earthworms. It was not difficult.
Lin Ting walked to the ridge of the farmland. The rice was about to mature at this time, and the water in the rice fields had been drained out long ago.
Now it is burning again, and there is a rice field that stretches as far as the eye can see. She walks in the middle and becomes the only color.
After looking at the soil, it was found to be quite good. The servants of the Wang family who had burned the grain were also arrested by the government.
With so much wood ash in the fields, we can use it as fertilizer.
After taking a general look at the two hundred acres of land, he also looked at the Ningjiang River, which could bring water into the fields. As long as a canal was dug upstream of the village, the water from the Ningjiang River could be brought in.
The Wang family did a great job, so Lin Ting naturally wanted to keep the good things.
I walked around, looked around, and thought about making plans, and an hour was almost gone.
With such a big farm, you can’t use up all the land just to grow mung beans.
Let's wait and see in a couple of days to see what else we can grow to earn more money.
