Chapter 397 This Is an Imported Product
Under the moonlight, three familiar things lay in the soil, making Shu Yu's eyes suddenly happy.
Daniel didn't see it yet, and said curiously, "I don't know what they dug up. Unfortunately, the place where I was hiding was too far to see clearly."
After a pause, he said again, "No wonder they have to break up with the fourth uncle and take back the yard. It turned out to be for the treasure hidden in the yard. Then this..."
Before Da Niu finished speaking, he saw Shu Yu crouched down and picked up a small black thing on the ground.
"What is this?" How did Ayu see something so dark and small? He had his eyes widened just now, and he couldn't see it.
Shu Yu picked up all three, put them in the palm of his hand, and said with a smile, "This is melon seeds."
"Melon seeds?" Da Niu frowned, "Don't melon seeds grow like this."
Shu Yu shook his head, "This is sunflower seed, it's different from what you've seen before."
The melon seeds of this era are actually watermelon seeds and pumpkin seeds. Sunflower seeds have not appeared in Dasu Dynasty.
Now the sunflower seeds in her hands are obviously imported.
For the people of the Great Su Dynasty, imported products can really be called treasures.
"These sunflower seeds are a good thing." Shu Yu remembered that in the late Qing Dynasty, the record of sunflower seeds was that "each catty is worth thirty or forty money, and the seeds can be squeezed for oil." ’
Thirty or forty coins, that's three or four taels of silver.
A pound is three or four taels, and melon seeds are quite weighing on the scale. What if you planted too much? If you don’t make hundreds or thousands of taels that day? I’m sorry for this imported product.
Also, planting sunflowers can fertilize the fields. After the stems are burned into ashes, add water and boil them to dry them. It can be used to make alkali and to fill soap.
Sunflowers can also extract oil, about 50 buckets of seeds can be harvested per mu of land, and each bucket can produce one liter of oil.
Are there more sunflowers? It can also be regarded as a scenic spot like the peach blossom forest in the county seat.
No, can't think about it anymore? If you think about it, you can't control your fingers that are just around the corner.
Shu Yu shook his head and exhaled? He lowered his voice and said to Daniel? "Can this thing be grown? I'll try to look at it later.
Didn't Boss Yuan say that he didn't know this thing? It's okay? I know. Let's wait for him to sell it in the county seat? Find someone to buy it. "
Daniel's eyes widened? "Is this really a baby?"
"Huh? But we don't know many people here." No? It should be said that the entire Dasu Dynasty may not know many people.
Daniel grinned? Their family A Yu is really well-informed.
Shu Yu carefully put away the three sunflower seeds? "Okay? Now that you know how tricky this yard is? Let's go."
"Um."
The two slightly concealed the footprints next to the excavated soil, and then they climbed up the wall? The Yuan family's yard that they left? Soon returned to Shangshi Village.
They were lucky. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, a few drops of rain cracked down on their heads.
Seeing the rain, Shu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "It rained just in time, our footprints were just washed away."
Although they covered it up a bit before they left, it was inconvenient to do the truth in the middle of the night. Who knows if the boss of the Yuan family and the others will see something strange when they pass by tomorrow.
Seeing the rain getting heavier and heavier, Shu Yu quickened his pace and started running. .
"Brother Daniel, I'll go back first, and you should go home quickly. If you have something to do, we'll talk about it after dawn."
