Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl Chapter 397: This is an imported product
Under the moonlight, three familiar things were lying in the soil, which made Shu Yu's eyes suddenly light up.
Daniu hadn't seen it yet, so he said curiously, "I don't know what they dug up, but unfortunately the place where I was hiding was too far away to see clearly."
After a pause, he added, "No wonder they insisted on severing ties with Fourth Uncle and taking back this courtyard. It turned out to be for the treasure hidden in this courtyard. Then this..."
Before Daniel finished speaking, he saw Shu Yu squatting down and picking up a small black thing on the ground.
"What is this?" How did Ayu see something so dark and small? He had his eyes wide open just now and couldn't see it.
Shu Yu picked up all three seeds, put them in his hand, and said with a smile, "These are melon seeds."
"Melon seeds?" Daniel frowned, "Melon seeds don't grow like this."
Shu Yu shook his head, "These are sunflower seeds. They are different from the ones you have seen before."
The melon seeds of this era were actually watermelon seeds and pumpkin seeds. Sunflower seeds did not appear in the Dasu Dynasty.
The sunflower seeds in her hand are obviously imported.
For the people of the Dasu Dynasty, imported products can really be called treasures.
"These sunflower seeds are a good thing." Shu Yu remembered that the record of sunflower seeds in the late Qing Dynasty was, "Each catty is worth thirty or forty yuan, and the seeds can be squeezed for oil." ’
Thirty or forty dollars, that’s three or four taels of silver.
Three or four taels per catty, and melon seeds are quite heavy on the scale. What if I plant more? If I don’t make hundreds or thousands of taels a day, I will be sorry for this imported product.
Also, growing sunflowers can fertilize fields. After the stems are burned to ash, they can be boiled with water to make alkali and used as soap.
Sunflowers can also extract oil. One acre of land can yield about fifty bushels, and each bushel can extract one liter of oil.
If you plant too many sunflowers? It can also be used as a scenic spot like the peach blossom forest in the county.
No, I can’t think about it anymore? If I think about it anymore, I won’t be able to control my fingers.
Shu Yu shook his head, exhaled, lowered his voice and said to Daniel, "Can this thing be planted? I'll try to see it later. Didn't Boss Yuan say he didn't recognize this thing? It doesn't matter? I do." Later, when we get it to the county town and sell it, we will find someone to buy it."
Daniu’s eyes widened? “Is this really a treasure?”
"Huh? But we probably don't know many people here." No, it should be said that the entire Dasu Dynasty probably doesn't know many people.
Daniu grinned? Their Ayu is really well-informed.
Shu Yu carefully put away the three sunflower seeds. "Okay? Now that you know what's going on in this yard, let's go. ~IndoMTL.com~Hmm."
The two men slightly covered up the footprints next to the excavated soil, then climbed up the wall and left the Yuan family's yard, and soon returned to Shangshi Village.
They were very lucky. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, a few drops of rain fell from above their heads.
Seeing the rain, Shu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "It rained just in time, and our footprints were washed away."
Although they covered it up before leaving, it was inconvenient to do things in the middle of the night. Who knows if the boss of the Yuan family will notice something strange when they pass by tomorrow.
Seeing the rain getting heavier, Shu Yu quickened his pace and started running. .
"Brother Daniu, I'm going back first, and you should go home quickly. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it after dawn."
