Chapter 404 404, potato seeds

On June 1, the Victory Production Brigade held another meeting.

When the whole village learned that their village had bought 100 catties of potato seeds, the scene was boiling.

"It's saved, it's saved~"

"God bless you."

"Great, now you don't have to worry about running out of food."

"It's still our captain wise."

This news is undoubtedly a great good thing for everyone. The crowd is full of emotions, the joy is beyond words, and many people even have tears of joy.

No wonder everyone was so excited, it was the worry and anxiety during this time, like a stone weighing on everyone's heart.

Although the situation in their village is better than the surrounding production brigades, their brigades still have concerns.

So far, there is no indication of the above, which means that the food has reached the point of very short supply, which also means that there is no hope for at least six months in the future.

Because the spring seeds have not been sown, how can the autumn harvest be harvested?

Although they planted some wheat and potatoes in their village, the combined amount could not support the entire team's rations for half a year.

Potatoes and wheat are planted a little later than in previous years, so the potatoes will not be harvested until early next month, while the spring wheat will not be harvested until August.

With the current situation in their village, there is no problem in supporting them for another month. After the potatoes and wheat are harvested one after another, they will have food rations.

Although the number is small, it can last for a while.

In fact, they have been thinking about it for a long time. Now they reduce the amount of food they eat every day. After the potatoes and wheat are harvested in July and August, they should be able to last until October.

But the question is, what about after October? What are they supposed to survive on?

Especially after October, the climate will enter the autumn and winter seasons, so there are fewer crops that can be planted in the cold weather.

If there is no food for the winter, then their bodies will not be able to withstand the cold at all, and I am afraid that they will either starve to death or die of cold.

Therefore, what they are worried about recently is not how they will be hungry in recent months, but how they will survive after October?

Although now I can only eat two meals a day, and I am still full of water, this is still better than having no food to eat.

But it's different now. The captain told them that there are 100 catties of sweet potatoes. These sweet potatoes are high-yielding grains. As long as these sweet potatoes are planted, they will not run out of food in October.

Even though it's a bit late to plant sweet potatoes at this node now, but luckily it's not too late, it's still too late!

If sweet potatoes are planted now, they will be ready to harvest in late October or early November, so they can breathe a sigh of relief when winter comes.

As long as they survive the winter, they will usher in spring, when the earth recovers, and many edible things will grow on the mountains.

By next year, the situation in the country should get better, right? Then they can continue to farm safely.

Qi Zhongkang raised his hand to signal, and the scene that was still boiling was quiet almost instantly.

Through the various performances over the past two months, the whole village now has sincere conviction and respect for Qi Zhongkang, the captain.

If it weren't for Qi Zhongkang, their village would definitely be similar to the surrounding production brigades, and their village could still eat two meals a day. I heard that many places can only eat one meal a day.

Seeing that the villagers were quiet, Qi Zhongkang said slowly, "This one hundred catties of sweet potatoes are hard-won, I asked Qi Han to buy them back, this money will be paid from the public account of the brigade, do you have any opinion? "

"No opinion!!" Everyone replied in unison.

At this time, who cares about the work points and dividends on the public account, they are lucky to survive if they can survive.

Qi Zhongkang's expression was solemn, and his tone was suddenly severe, "I believe everyone knows very well that the reason why our village can buy grain is all because Qi Han works in the transportation team and can travel from south to north.

So, if you let me know who is talking nonsense outside, remember, all the qualifications for food distribution will be disqualified. Since we can ignore the life and death of our entire team, then we can't blame our brigade for not being saved.

In addition, there are still many places in our brigade that need to rely on Qi Han. When everyone is visiting relatives and friends, it is best not to talk too much. If anyone affects Qi Han's work in the transport team, the consequences will be conceited! "

"Yes!"

Everyone was excited and hurriedly responded in unison.

If anyone in their village still has the ability to help the brigade, it must be the Qi family. If you think about it carefully, the Daqi family has helped the village several times. If it wasn't for the Qi family, I'm afraid they would have run out of food.

Before, they knew that the transportation team worked well. After all, they were able to drive big trucks and still eat public grain. It would be honorable and honorable to say it.

But now, they feel better. Of course, this 'better' is not just about the decent work, but the fact that the work can bring convenience to the village.

Because Qi Han can go to many places they can't go, and can buy things in other places that can't be bought locally. If it wasn't for Qi Han to help them run through the convenience of work, they would have no seeds.

Thinking of this, everyone secretly decided that they must respect the Daqi family more in the future. They must not offend them, and they cannot even condone and allow other people in the village to provoke the Daqi family.

For a time, the status of the Daqi family in the village soared, and it became the most valuable family in the village.

Now that the potato seeds were obtained, Qi Zhongkang started arranging the planting of sweet potatoes that afternoon.

——

Qi's small courtyard.

Qin Tianru was dismantling wooden boxes in the room. When he came back late last night, he briefly explained the situation in the county to his parents and then went back to his room to rest.

And this morning, there was another meeting in the village, and she didn't have time to take out the wooden box until after lunch.

She took the tools for carpentry and beat and fiddled for a while before finally poking open the bottom of the wooden box.

Sure enough, there is a layer of clapboard at the bottom of this wooden box. Now after removing the interlayer, there is something wrapped in red cloth on the bottom layer, which is exactly the same length as the wooden box.

Qin Tianru opened the red cloth curiously, and the contents inside were instantly exposed in front of him.

\\(⊙▽⊙)/

Qin Tianru was surprised and looked straight at the bottom of the wooden box.

She originally thought that there should be some precious jewelry hidden in the wooden box, or some secret recipe or the like, but she never expected that it was wrapped in a superb ginseng!

Looking at the appearance of this ginseng, I am afraid it has more than 500 years, right?
