Chapter 198 198. Take a ride
It was dark.
Li Baoni hurriedly came down from the mountain with a basket of tea leaves. When she got home, she hooked it up and weighed it as soon as possible -
"One pound and two taels."
This is her usual custom The efficiency, to be precise, most people in the village are also this efficient.
Spreading the tea leaves flat on the plastic sheet on the ground to dry, she walked into the bedroom again and asked her husband who was resting on the bed:
"How are you? Can you get up and go to the toilet today?"< br>
The man on the bed showed a smile: "I got it on, my waist doesn't hurt much anymore, and I can move around okay. I feel more relaxed day by day, and it won't be long before I feel better."
Li Baoni He also breathed a sigh of relief.
“That’s OK.”
She babbled: "Now that the price of tea has dropped, I only pay thirty yuan for a pound of sprouts. What can I do if I earn sixty or seventy yuan a day?"
"The vegetable garden has also been tidied up. I I'm still thinking that if you can take care of yourself when we enter Futian, I will go work outside."
As she spoke, she helped her husband stand up slowly and skillfully, and then slowly. Walking a few steps slowly:
“I saw many factories on Douyin recruiting workers. I am just fifty years old and my age is just right. I can earn more than twenty yuan an hour. What if I had more? If you work overtime, you might be able to earn seven or eight thousand a month!"
As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh:
"Tell me, at Wulan's house, why are the tea leaves growing so well this year? I heard from some of their tea pickers that they could pick two or three kilograms in an afternoon. How thick are these buds?"
She couldn't do it anymore. She was quick but couldn't keep up with the tea leaves.
The man in her family laughed: "No, my waist is broken, and it will hinder you from making a lot of money."
With Li Baonier's quick workmanship, if it weren't for Because she had to take care of herself who was lying in bed recuperating, she would definitely go to Wulan's house to help pick tea leaves for her when spring began.
One hundred and fifty a day is much more stable than picking tea by yourself. This is the price paid by people in the same village, excluding food and accommodation.
In previous years, tea pickers would be given free food and accommodation, but they would only be given one hundred or even less per day, and if they were per kilogram, they would just go with the flow.
However, as the famous teas are now being promoted one after another, and their remote and remote areas are becoming less and less developed, the price of tea has been falling again and again, and most of them are used to recharge the famous tea.
As a result, their local villagers could no longer afford to hire tea pickers. Now all year round, there is not much income.
Every household that can move around has gone out to work.
While I was thinking about it, I heard a cry from outside the yard: "Bonnie, Bonnie!"
Li Baoni was stunned for a moment, then hurried out: "I'm here, what's going on?"
Just after asking, she couldn't help but smile: "Are we going to hire someone to work at home tomorrow? Don't worry, Whatever you want to do, I will go there early in the morning."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Ulan expectantly.
Now the people in the village are willing to work for Song Tan's family.
The food is good and the money is plenty, which is much more cost-effective than working outside. Unfortunately, this job is in twos and threes, not sustainable and not stable enough.
But Wu Lan shook his head, thinking about the upcoming wealthy customers at home, and made it clear in a few words:
“This is a fisherman our Yanping found online. There is no place to sleep at night. I'm thinking that your home has a solar water heater and wireless network. Is it okay to arrange for someone to stay at your home? "
"It's fifty per night. You don't need to prepare meals. You think it's okay. No?”
Li Baoni was overjoyed, why can’t this work? !
The yards in rural areas are big, and her house, like the old Song family, was built many years ago.
In addition to the place where the children live, there is an extra room reserved for the tea pickers, which is now piled with debris.
But it doesn’t matter.
"My son's room is clean. I'll bring the quilt over later." Seeing that she was already in a hurry to clean up, Ulan smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry, young man. He hasn’t eaten yet. After dinner at my house in the evening, I’ll ask Yan Ping to send him over.”
“You can take your time and take your time.”
< br>
Li Baoni was so happy that she couldn't help but ask one more question:
"Ulan, I see that the onions and garlic in your vegetable garden are growing very well. When are you going to sell vegetables?"
How could Wu Lan even bother to look at her vegetable garden!
She only has tea leaves in her eyes now.
Hearing this, he was also stunned: "I don't know, Tantan is responsible for this matter. She is the only one in the family who can drive."
Li Baoni smiled sheepishly: "I just wanted to ask, if she sells vegetables again, wouldn't it be convenient for us to be taken to the hospital? It's time for a reexamination."
What a big deal!
"I'll go back and ask later. I'll send you a message after I say hello."
Ulan couldn't help but say to her: "If you have something to do, just say it directly. You don't have to Rushing to sell vegetables.”
When people say polite things, Li Baoni is also polite.
Usually there are cars in the village, but the bus that connects every village has to go around the town every day. She is very embarrassed:
“You also know that his waist feels uncomfortable after sitting for a long time. There is no rush for this re-examination. Just let me know when it’s convenient.”
The issue of waist is really a big deal. After all, you are the main worker in the family. If your waist is broken, you will not be able to make money. Not to mention, Li Baoni was tied up.
Ulan knew the situation and returned home in a hurry. He grabbed Song Tan and asked:
"The garlic sprouts and onions in your field can be sold. When will you go to sell vegetables?" ?”
Song Tan goes for a walk in the vegetable garden every day, and keeps in touch with the two treasures. She knows how much the vegetables will grow.
Now is the time when spring is warm and flowers are blooming. The green leaves are sprouting so fast. Plus, she still has spiritual energy to stimulate her growth every night...
No, today’s food is straight. A few onions, garlic and cilantro pulled from the vegetable garden.
As for Nepeta, Aunt Lianhua also went to the field to pull a handful in the afternoon, planning to make tofu soup tonight. Look at the satisfied look on the seventh cousin's face, the quality of this batch of vegetables is better than wild vegetables!
Forget about onions and garlic, the pak choi will be delivered in a few days.
But the first ones to grow were these condiments, spring onions, garlic sprouts, schizonepeta, and coriander.
The growth cycle of ginger is longer, but it has not grown well yet.
Among them, shallots and garlic seedlings have the highest yield per mu. If they are planted well, they can be planted three or four times a year and yield six to seven thousand kilograms per mu without any problem.
I think it’s time to find a designer to renovate the house. It’s safe to have more money in hand.
In this case——
"Let's go tomorrow. What's wrong? What groceries do you want to buy?"
It has become a habit for her to go shopping every morning.
Ulan told Li Baoni’s story.
Song Tan nodded: "No problem, the vegetable market is not far from the People's Hospital. I will deliver it directly to them without delaying things."
This is what everyone knows about living in the village. It’s stress-free and comfortable, but the reason why everyone still wants to go to the big city.
In addition to education, the other most important factor is medical care.
Without a car, it is almost impossible to move even when you are injured or in pain.
There will be more in a moment.
