"Pfft——"

"How many?!"

Mei Mei went home and told her parents that the thousand-acre farm had "come from the sky". They were so shocked that they immediately came to the spot and "took off on the spot" and "the dragon king spit out water".

Sure enough, the shame was definitely not due to Meiberry herself.

As Mei Bei thought about it, she was pulled in front of her by a woman from the family, looked up and down, and asked:

"Oh my god! What did you sell?"

She was obviously asking what Meiberry had sold, but her look in her eyes made it look like "Hey, I don't know if my daughter was sold to me?"

"Cotton~ Isn't it the cotton given to me by the system? I'll use his farm to grow cotton. From now on, we can continue to do business as a partnership~"

Mei Bei said it easily, and Mei Youqian smashed it and said: "With so much land, how can we cooperate to make so much money? A thousand acres of land, according to the lowest Sha Tin, would cost two or three dollars."

Two silver dollars per acre!"

Although their family makes a lot of money from soap, Mei Youqian knows that not everything is as profitable as soap.

"Yanzhou is a vast and sparsely populated area, with a thousand acres of land and no villages in front or behind. It shouldn't be very expensive."

When Mei Bei was at Jiubaoxuan, she even made a point of asking about it.

Xie Changshu, aren’t all Zhuangzis this big?

Shopkeeper Ma's answer is definitely no.

That is to say, poor places like Yan, Han and Xianyao in the four northern states can buy like this.

When we arrived in Yunzhou, the land limit of that farm was only more than 500 acres, not to mention other rich and fertile lands.

In those places, gentry and wealthy people are everywhere, and there are not many wealthy families. It is even more difficult to buy a farm of more than 100 acres.

Mei Qian happily talked to Wei Meili and the others. Mei Youqian and Wei Meili looked at each other and asked another practical question——

"There is no village or land in this thousand-acre village. How are you going to live there? So much land needs people to work, right? Just by finding people to farm it at the beginning, the large amount of food that needs to be consumed before harvesting.

Is it a problem?"

The proud Meiberry was stunned when she heard this: Huh?

"Yes, such a big village still needs people to farm. Not to mention food and drink, wages must be paid... There is no village in front of the place, no ground behind, and no one to eat, so I..."

After going round and round, Meiberry finally discovered that she not only had to prepare money, but also food!

Neither money nor food should be missing.

Ah! (Refer to Van Gogh's "The Scream")

Meiberry was horrified to realize that the thousand acres of land she got for nothing was really not for nothing!

"It's okay. We may not be able to plant all the cotton on a thousand acres of land. Can't we just hire fewer people then? We can still grow some food on the empty land."

Seeing his daughter's ups and downs, Mei Youqian comforted her.

"But I still have watermelons to plant."

"That's enough, a thousand acres."

"Well, I still have chili..."

"Well, that's enough... hmm? Chili pepper?"

Mei Youqian and Wei Meili were stunned.

"Ah! I forgot!"

After being reminded like this, Meiberry remembered that she had been busy some time ago and forgot to mention that she got the pepper.

Meiberry excitedly told her about the rewards she had punched in after Meiyu left.

At this time, not to mention the thousand acres of land, their whole family's attention is focused on chili peppers!

"Quick! Let me see!"

Wei Meili pulled Mei Bei into the kitchen and asked Mei Bei to take out some of the dozens of kilograms of fresh peppers in the space to take a look.

"Hey! Are there different types?"

At a glance, Wei Meili saw the hottest Chaotian peppers, the slender Hangzhou peppers, and the green and red peppers with average spiciness but thick and juicy skin.

After picking and choosing, Wei Meili took out part of the green and red peppers and part of the hot peppers.

Chaotian pepper is usually used as a condiment in cooking. If you can’t finish it for a while, you can dry it and store it.

When they saw the peppers, their family had already forgotten who they were and what their farm was.

Right now, the only thing their family can think of is having chili scrambled eggs and green pepper shredded pork for lunch!

But because Tian Qi has been eating at home recently, the sudden appearance of chili pepper will definitely arouse suspicion.

Because it is absolutely impossible for Tianqi to give up and taste it immediately!

The family racked their brains for a long time to think about the origin of the chili pepper, but when it was time to eat, Tian Qi, who came from next door, didn't care what it was.

During lunch, the Meiberry family noticed that Tian Qi liked spicy food, although he couldn't eat spicy food.

While eating chili scrambled eggs, I cried while drinking.

Sihasha's mouth was so hot and swollen that he didn't even ask what it was.

It wasn't until a long time later that Meiberry understood how Tian Qi's habit came about.

Because Tian Qi and Mr. Xue don’t know how to cook on weekdays.

In the past, when the two of them were "dependent on each other," they would either go to the street to buy something to eat, or they would give money to neighbors and have food delivered when the time came.

The main thing is that they eat what others cook. They understand that "the one who can cook is the master" and never put forward any opinions on food.

Shopkeeper Ma said that there are still a few days to deal with the matter about the Thousand Acres Grange. When they finish it, they will come to Meiberry and go to the Grange to take a look first.

Meiberry visited Xiao Hui again before that. This time, Meiberry expressed her gratitude to Xie Changxu for his generosity, and then asked if he wanted to send more professionals that Xie Changxu mentioned last time.

If that doesn't work, send a few more helpers to focus on learning and exchange.

As Mei Bei wrote this, she had it in mind——

This "apprentice" is here to learn, so she doesn't have to pay for it, right?

Even if Jiubaoxuan comes to study with money, Jiubaoxuan and the others should also pay for the "apprentice" degree, right?

Also, "apprentices" have to work harder and harder, right?

Therefore, when Xie Changzhen over there had asked shopkeeper Ma to arrange matters for Meiberry Farm, he received a "letter of thanks" from Meiberry, and finally agreed that he could send someone to do farm work there.

In fact, there is a strong meaning of "lack of people" between the lines.

"It's really..."

Xie Changxun couldn't help but laugh.

He clearly knew that Mei Bei's little scheme to take advantage was crackling, but Xie Changxu had no intention of exposing it.

Everything is developing towards Mayberry's expectations.

And while Mei Berry was waiting for her thousand-acre farm, Mei You also came back.

It was only half a month later, but when she saw Meiyou again, Meiberry felt as if she had been in another world.

Wearing a neat high ponytail and wearing light armor, he rode through the bustling market.

The heroic and confident Meiyou made Meiberry stunned for a while.

This is Meiyou!

I don’t know why, but Meiberry sighed like this from the bottom of her heart.

"That's your sister?"

The voice next to her brought Mayberry back to reality.

Mei Pei was currently in the private room on the second floor of the teahouse, drinking tea and snacks with Yang Qingyue.

It was rare for Yang Qingyue to come out, but she couldn't move around at will, but she didn't expect that they would see a big surprise while having tea in the teahouse.

"Yes, my sister is very powerful."

Mei Bei could hear the envy in Yang Qingyue's tone, and Mei Bei even praised Mei You with Yourong Yan.

"My sister is very strong and has good skills. She must have made great achievements in Yanping Pass!"

"Sanniang, if you go to Yanping Pass, you will definitely make meritorious deeds. You are so powerful that you will be very powerful on the battlefield!"

"I agree!"

I don’t know when, Mei You actually appeared at their door...

Ding - your little sister Meiyou of the Kua Kua group is now online.

…

I went to the hospital for a check-up this morning. There was actually a pulmonary nodule in the previous physical examination. Fortunately, the pulmonary nodule was very small and the doctor said there was no problem. Then, I did another QvQ test about my repeated coughing. It turned out that my lung function was not good and I was diagnosed by the doctor.
