“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 passed 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?”
“I will.”
On the female side, Madam Wang 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 Wang and said,” Madam Gu is so blessed. Your son has passed the Jinshi examination at such a young age. His future will definitely be bleak.”
“Madam Tian, you flatter me. I was just lucky.” Lady Wang 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 Wang 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..
