“Now, our county seems to be mainly planting sweet potatoes. However, the yield of this thing is high. I’m afraid that we won’t be able to sell it after planting it.”
“Indeed. I heard from the boat runners that Big Ming is already selling sweet potatoes everywhere. I’m afraid it’s really not easy to sell.”
“Then leave it for me. When the sweet potatoes are harvested in autumn, I’ll get my subordinates to go to the various villages to collect them.” Gu Chengrui said.
“Really?”
“Of course, we plan to build a vermicelli workshop. We will use a large number of sweet potatoes, so you can plant as many as you can.
Oh right, there’s also chili, soybeans, and broad beans. You can all plant them.
We’ll take as much as you have.”
“With your words, we have an idea. Then we’ll go back and tell the villagers.”
” Tell me, when we collect them, until we reach the Mountain Taste Residence, Manager Sun will arrange it.”
On the other end, Bai Jingping was surprised to hear people discussing Gu Chengsi’s land as he pa.s.sed by.
Gu Chengsi came over and sat down after a round of politeness.” When I was walking over just now, I heard that you rejected the offer of those wealthy families. Is that true?”
“Yes, this little brother only agreed to the village, which is the Tian and Gu clans.
Everyone else, including his relatives, rejected him.
Firstly, my father is getting old, and my brother is the only one who can’t handle it.
Also, I won’t be at home all year round in the future. I’m afraid that I’ll cause trouble again, so I rejected it.” “Isn’t this just nice?” Gu Chengsi smiled.”! can let you collect more taxes, right?”
“That’s true.” Bai Jingping nodded in agreement.
He was different from him. He might not be able to come back for many years. If there were any changes at home, he would not be able to care at all. It was better not to provoke them from the beginning.
“Oh right, which county did you get a.s.signed to?” she asked curiously.
” The county where Chen Peng used to live is a flat plain. It’s not easy to make achievements there.”
Bai Jingping was stunned for a moment. After remembering who Chen Peng was, he laughed in his heart.
After that, he said,” Each has its own benefits. It’s also stable there. Now that everything has just calmed down, it’s still easy to make achievements.”
“Oh right, has Lord Sun been transferred to the Tranquil Sun Residence to be the magistrate?”
“That’s true. You can ask him more when you go over. His ability is quite good.”
“I will.”
On the female side, Madam w.a.n.g brought her two daughters-in-law and Gu Ziyi.
Madam Liu, Madam Yao, Madam Yang, and Gu Chengye’s daughter-in-law, Madam Yu, were entertaining the ladies.
After exchanging pleasantries and everyone sat down, a woman walked up to Madam w.a.n.g and said,” Madam Gu is so blessed. Your son has pa.s.sed the Jinshi examination at such a young age. His future will definitely be bleak.”
“Madam Tian, you flatter me. I was just lucky.” Lady w.a.n.g smiled.
“You’re too humble. I have a niece in my maiden family. Although she came from a merchant family, she’s literate and can manage her own shop.
Do you want to matchmake them?”
“He’s already married and has a son who’s not even two years old, so I think we should forget about this matter.”
“No matter what, he’s still a county magistrate. Isn’t it too rare for him to have a woman inside and outside?”
“I don’t think it will be chaotic if there are too many women.
Besides, we’re from a small family. We really can’t afford to raise so many women. I think we should forget about it.”
Madam w.a.n.g saw that she still wanted to persuade her and saw that there was a guest at the door, so she immediately went up to greet him..
