Lin Xiangyang asked: "What's the matter with the girl, just ask, the two of us must know everything, and we must say everything." ”

Lin Yi smiled: "Don't be so nervous, it's not a big deal, I just want to ask, if there are mulberry trees planted in our field." ”

"Mulberry?" Zhao San had never heard of a mulberry tree, so he was at a loss and asked, "What kind of tree is that?" ”

Lin Xiangyang had seen a little of the world outside, and he knew what a mulberry tree was, so he said: "The girl is talking about a mulberry tree that raises silkworms." ”

Lin Yi nodded and said, "Exactly, I was born in Linjia Village since I was a child, and I haven't seen any mulberry trees nearby, I don't know if there are such trees in the villages and towns outside?" ”

Lin Xiangyang said: "Our generation, there is no large-scale planting of mulberry trees, and there are no silkworm farmers nearby, and the silk brocade in the county town is sold from outside, but I do know that there is a place where there are a lot of mulberry trees, and the local people do not use it to raise silkworms, but pick its mulberries and sell them to pharmacies." “

"Where?" Lin Yi asked.

Lin Xiangyang said: "There are a lot of them in my grandfather's house, that is, Yaojia Village, and they don't do anything else except picking mulberries and selling them every year. ”

Lin Yi asked: "One to five years of seedlings, how much money can you make by selling mulberries every year?" ”

"There are not many mulberries on a tree, some of them are eaten by themselves, a five-year-old sapling, a year can produce a maximum of one to five catties of mulberries, the price of mulberries is different every year, I remember when I was a child, the price of a catty is fifteen wen."

Lin Yi calculated a little and said: "In this way, Brother Xiangyang, you will go to Yaojia Village tomorrow and tell the villagers over there that we will pay for mulberry saplings, and the mulberry saplings under three years old will cost one or two silver, and the other big mulberry trees will be three taels of silver each, and the big tree saplings will not be transplanted, only the location will be registered, and every year in the future, they can still pick mulberries for sale, but the mulberry leaves should be kept for me." “

"Wouldn't they have made a lot of money?" Lin Xiangyang said with a smile: "The girl is so generous, they will definitely not ask for it." ”

Zhao San scratched his head and asked, "The girl wants this mulberry tree, is she going to raise silkworms?" ”

Lin Yi nodded and said: "A few days ago, when I came back, I passed through Jianghuai City, which is the land of silk, and every household raises silkworms. ”

Zhao San didn't know how to raise silkworms, and after listening to Lin Yi talk so much, he could only nod his head.

Lin Xiangyang felt that Lin Yi's brain was too flexible, and he would find such a big business opportunity when he went out, he was very interested, and his face was excited, and he said, "Girl, I will set off in a while and go to Yaojia Village to discuss the purchase of mulberry trees." ”

Lin Yi smiled: "Don't be in such a hurry, it's not too late to go tomorrow." ”

"Yes." Lin Xiangyang agreed, thinking that he would go back and talk to his father about it to see if he could help Lin Yi in silkworm raising.

Chun has been standing behind Lin Yi, he had been listening quietly, but at this moment, a trace of sorrow appeared on his face, frowning, and he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

Qiu next to him touched his arm and said, "Big brother, what's wrong with you?" ”

When Lin Yi heard Qiu's voice, he subconsciously turned his head and met Chun's bitter melon-like face.

Lin Yi was a little strange, although Chun was not very cheerful, but during this time, he had become less gloomy than before, and he was suddenly unhappy, what was going on?
