Chapter 229 Seeing Xiong Kai
Fang Weihan nodded with a smile, "It's enough. Thanks to the kindness of my employer, we can finally support ourselves this year."
"Just feeding ourselves is not enough. You said before that the wasteland next to Zhuangzi is good, right?" Su Tai asked.
Fang Wei nodded repeatedly, "It's good. We didn't know that before, but after opening up the wasteland, we found that there was no gravel in the large wasteland. In addition, it is close to the Daxun River and the soil is fertile. It can be raised well. In the next year, it will definitely turn into fertile farmland."
Su Tai thought about it, smiled with him, and said, "In this case, if you have time in the spring, you can open up the land next to it. Plan to buy them all together.”
There are only 200 acres of land in the village, but there are 60 tenant farmers. The average allocation to each person is less than four acres. It is no problem to support herself, but it is impossible to have more. Since she has extra hands, she It can't be wasted like this.
Opening up wasteland is definitely a win-win situation for everyone.
Fang Wei was overjoyed, "Okay, okay! I will inform you when I get back, and I will definitely be able to plant the crops before spring plowing next year."
Su Tai nodded with satisfaction and pointed to the things on the ground. Shen Sheng said: "This year I will also be generous. Each of you will have two kilograms of pork, one bone for each person, and sugar and tea for each person. The same goes for the pastries. I have packed them all. You can take them away next year. You can make some pickles for the winter.”
Fang Wei and the other three expressed their gratitude again, and after struggling for a while, they finally took everything away.
The next day, Su Tai asked Chen Mu to take her to the town official's house in Dahe Town to deliver the new year's gift. Within an hour, she got the two hundred acres of wasteland she wanted.
After Shen Mu found out, he couldn't help but ask his doubts, "Shen Yi is not at home now. It's hard enough for you to take care of so many things by yourself. Why do you want to buy land? Can you take care of it?"
Su Tai laughed dumbly and explained: "I bought these lands just because Shen Yi was not at home. The original land was too little and there were too many tenants. They didn't have much land allocated to them. If they had extra energy, they could It's easy to cause trouble by overthinking.
Why don't we buy more land for them to plant? If they live too much, who will have free time to think about it? More importantly, when they have a harvest and have money in their pockets, they can do it. Seriously, I don’t expect them to farm land for me for the rest of their lives. After all, who doesn’t want to own their own land?
When they save enough money to leave, I will find new tenants, so that these people won’t be left hanging. Zhuangzi, right!”
Chen Mu was stunned for a while after hearing this, and he really admired Su Tai more and more in his heart, "I don't know how you have such a brain, I can't think of so much."
Su Tai smiled and said, No explanation.
On New Year's Eve, the work in Guokui's workshop was over. Shen Ergou and Shen Tian finished cleaning the house, collected their wages and New Year's gifts, and went back.
Su Zhan, Su Ming and Chenxiang are also preparing to return to Dongmen Village.
Before leaving, Su Tai brought them a large pot of beef hot pot, which contained offal beef balls and fresh beef, which can be eaten when cooked. In addition to this, there was also a large pot of boiled fish. .
The three people's eyes widened.
"Sister, why are you preparing these things for us? It's not like our family doesn't cook!" Su Zhan subconsciously refused.
Su Tai rolled her eyes at him, "Can it be the same? Can mother and Xiaoyu eat like this? Stop inking quickly and take it back to try it. Tell me if it tastes good."
The three of them had no choice but to go back with their things obediently.
As soon as they left, Su Tai went over and called Mrs. Xu to come over to make hot pot and boiled fish.
There is no need to say goodbye and exchange pleasantries.
After everyone was sent away, Su Tai breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and entered the stove room, ran around again, packed up a fresh beef hotpot and took it away, and then went to the boiled fish shop next door to get it for herself Ordered four pounds of boiled fish.
Go back to the Golden Arches to get the super luxury package you ordered.
After everything was ready, she trotted to the backyard to call someone.
Everyone heard the movement and looked at Su Tai in unison.
Ke Yunyun asked excitedly: "Cousin, can we go to the front?"
"Let's go! Come out, I'll prepare food for you. Let's have a meal first later and think about it tonight." Let’s talk about what to eat.” Su Tai stepped forward and led the child out. The three children came to the yard and rolled around so much when they saw the snow that they couldn't hold back.
After they had fun, Su Tai took them to the main room, where each of them had a cup of hot milk tea, and then served a super luxurious set meal, which really made the eyes of those who had never seen the world go straight. .
"Cousin! What is this? It smells so good!" Ke Yunyun smacked her lips, ready to make a move.
Su Tai gave each of them a hamburger, "It's like a steamed bun with meat and vegetables inside. Try it."
Xiao Xi took a bite and felt a little uncomfortable, but she never got used to it. , no food will be wasted.
Ke Yunyun liked it very much. She ate up a large burger with each bite.
After trying a fried chicken leg again, she was completely conquered, "Cousin, I have never eaten such delicious chicken when I was growing up. I am so happy to follow my cousin!"
< br>Ke Yunyun was moved to tears.
Xiao Xi nodded desperately. Neither the master nor the servant were very good at cooking. At this moment, they both had a deep attachment and admiration for Su Tai.
This is true for adults, let alone children.
Everyone is immersed in their hard work, not caring about anything else.
Even the youngest Shen Congrong ate a roasted chicken leg.
Su Tai was worried that his stomach couldn't bear it and didn't dare to let him eat anymore, so she coaxed him to drink some fruit tea for digestion.
The house was bustling, and Su Tai could not help but think of Shen Yi in the distance, and wondered if they had a good New Year.
Shen Yi, who was worried about Su Tai, was currently eating hard in the tent with his own food.
Although it is the Chinese New Year, there is nothing good in the military camp, let alone new recruits like them. It is good to be able to get enough food.
As soon as Shen Yi finished eating, Song Yongnian and Ye An came.
“Brother Shen, guess who I just saw?”
Seeing that Song Yongnian didn't look well, Shen Yi said, "Isn't that a good thing?"
Song Yongnian nodded slightly, "I actually saw the bear who killed my sister-in-law Kai Kai!"
Shen Yi stood up suddenly. , "Where is he?"
Song Yongnian immediately took him out to look for someone. The two walked around and found that Xiong Kai was actually in the same place as Zhu Yixuan and the others.
The enemy was extremely jealous when they met, Shen Yi stared at Xiong Kai, Xiong Kai's dark and vicious eyes met Shen Yi without hesitation.
There was fire in the air, and everyone realized that they had a grudge.
Zhu Yixuan has known Shen Yi for so long and knows that he is a kind-hearted person. He was a little surprised when he saw him like this for the first time, "What's the matter? Is there a dispute between you two?"
" Why is he here?" Shen Yi asked without answering.
Zhu Yixuan didn't care, and just said: "The ones who were just assigned last night don't seem to be new recruits. If you want to know, I will ask you."
