Chapter 269: Greedy
Yang Liping really couldn't believe what she saw.

The picture that appeared in the live broadcast room of Liyuan Farm was actually a huge banner.

There is a line of words on it: Warmly celebrate the first harvest of whitening sweet potatoes!
The surprise that Liyuan Farm mentioned turned out to be that the whitened sweet potatoes were ripe for harvest.

You know, she has been waiting for the whitening sweet potatoes to mature and be harvested.

No one expected that this surprise would come so suddenly.

It was just as the Liyuan Farm trailer said, what a surprise.

"Ping, what's wrong with you?" Her best friend looked at her in confusion.

Yang Liping hurriedly said: "Look at the live broadcast of Liyuan Farm, the whitening sweet potatoes are actually ripe."

"What? Really?" The best friend couldn't believe it when she heard it. She logged into Douyin with her phone and opened the Liyuan Farm live broadcast. She also saw the banner.

She was surprised and exclaimed: "It's actually true."

"Then we can buy whitening sweet potatoes right away?" Yang Liping said excitedly, her heart beginning to tremble.

You know, they have been waiting for this thing for a long time.

Previously, one of their friends bought whitening sweet potatoes, and within just a week, her skin became very white, and her appearance was elevated to a higher level.

It wasn't just the two of them. Countless people on the Internet clicked into the live broadcast room of Liyuan Farm and saw the banner celebrating the first harvest of whitening sweet potatoes.

There are also many people paying attention to whitening sweet potatoes on the Internet.

Among Liyuan Farm’s more than 2000 million fans, at least several million are female fans who specialize in whitening sweet potatoes.

They are just waiting for the whitening sweet potatoes to mature.

In a short time, the news spread quickly and caused a sensation on the Internet.

Xinlin Village is also very lively now.

After the people from Liyuan Farm arrived and started the live broadcast, County Magistrate Liu and Wei Yuan also came out with people from the county and village cadres from Xinlin Village to greet them.

"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Lin, we've been waiting for you." County Magistrate Liu said with a smile.

Wei Yuan also said: "Mr. Zhang, we are just waiting for you to arrive, and then the ceremony can begin."

Zhang Lin smiled and followed him into the village.

This whitening sweet potato first harvest ceremony is held in the village center of Xinlin Village.

Moreover, the handover point is also here.

The people of Xinlin Village will dig out the whitened sweet potatoes, then weigh them here, have them recorded by people from the county, and finally hand them over to Liyuan Farm.

Afterwards, when Liyuan Farm sells the whitened sweet potatoes, 40% of the profits will be distributed to the villagers who planted them.

You should know that the cultivation of whitening sweet potatoes is to support poor households first. The eight poor households in Xinlin Village who grow whitening sweet potatoes will become rich directly after the whitening sweet potatoes are sold.

It is precisely because of this that Liyuan Farm was praised by Renren Daily for its distribution of profits.

The ceremony was actually very simple, and was mainly a show, with speeches from the county, Liyuan Farm, and representatives of growers.

Anyway, they all sing praises of the merits and then have the cameras record it, and either publish it in the news or send it to the leaders as a video summary.

Naturally, the live broadcast of Liyuan Farm also captured this scene, and hundreds of thousands of viewers who entered the live broadcast room could see it.

That’s right, the number of people online in Liyuan Farm’s live broadcast room quickly reached hundreds of thousands.

All for whitening sweet potatoes.

Knowing that the whitened sweet potatoes are harvested, they now want to know when they can buy them.

As for the price, Liyuan Farm sells some every day, so those that are left there are not needed and the price will not change.

As the ceremony ended, Wei Yuan began to arrange people to go to the fields and start digging whitening sweet potatoes.

Because each of the eight families had five mu of land, the harvest was not that fast, at least not this morning. But even so, a pile of whitened sweet potatoes was already piled up in the center of the village in one morning.

People from the Agriculture Bureau have already started weighing and registering.

As expected, one acre of whitened sweet potatoes can produce 1000 kilograms of sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes sell for 200 yuan per kilogram, and the output of 5 acres of land can allow each family to earn a profit of more than 25 yuan.

You have to know that it's only been one quarter of planting, and they can earn so much profit. This is definitely the highest income for an ordinary family in Youcheng.

Moreover, with the remaining time, even if we let the land recuperate and there is no way to plant crops this year, how much money can we make by doing other things?
For a hard-working family, it will be no problem to earn more than 30 yuan a year.

In a county town, a family earns more than 30 yuan a year. What does this mean?
Can you make everyone envious?

It can be said that those growers all have smiles on their faces.

At noon, the village committee prepared a sumptuous farm meal to entertain people from the county and Liyuan Farm.

The eight farming families were all excited and toasted to the people from the county and Liyuan Farm.

This is the case with Lin Yuanbin.

He was originally a poor household in the village. He had never been to school and didn't know how to do anything except farming.

But in today's society, farming is not profitable.

If you want to grow cash crops, the cost will be high.

If he could afford the cost, he wouldn't be called a poor household.

Fortunately, the special planting cooperation project of Liyuan Farm came into being. With his good performance, he became one of the growers and got a five-acre planting quota.

Now that these whitened sweet potatoes are ripe, he can immediately earn a lot of money. He can then renovate the old house in the village, buy some things for his wife and daughter, and improve their lives.

So, he is now very grateful to Liyuan Farm.

If it weren't for the opportunity they gave him, he wouldn't have had the chance to make so much money.

Now he is waiting for Liyuan Farm to sell the whitened sweet potatoes and then distribute the profits to him.

At noon, Lin Yuanbin drank a lot. Then, after the people from Liyuan Farm left and the people in charge of registration in the county went to rest, he returned to his home, planning to have a good sleep and then go to harvest those whitening sweet potatoes in the afternoon.

But soon after he got home, he found that several people came to see him.

These were the few companies that had obtained the planting quota, and when they came to him, he was very confused.

If you don't take a good rest at this time, you will continue to harvest sweet potatoes in the afternoon and come to his side to do something.

"Lin Yuanbin, don't sleep, let's discuss something." One of them said directly to the point.

"What's the matter?" Lin Yuanbin asked puzzledly.

Another person immediately said, "We just met and felt something was wrong. Look, we bought the land and planted the sweet potatoes. Liyuan Farm only gave us some seedlings, but when the whitened sweet potatoes matured, we only got 40% of the profits, while Liyuan Farm did nothing and took 60% of the profits."

Another person said: "That's true. We work so hard to grow crops and we work under the sun every day. So it makes sense to do the opposite."

"Yes, even if it's 60% of ours, I have no objection. Now it really seems unreasonable."

One person echoed.

"In fact, there is a more reasonable way, that is, Liyuan Farm provides seedlings, and we just buy their sweet potato seedlings at the market price. Why do we need this cooperative model?"

“It’s literally sucking our blood.”

When Lin Yuanbin heard these words, his brows slightly frowned.

He felt that this seemed to be the case.
