"Ah Yu, how about those Zhuangzi?" Chu Zhiwen was more curious about the situation. He lived to such an old age, not to mention owning a Zhuangzi, but he didn't even have a chance to enter, so he was naturally curious.

"Father, Zhuangzi's situation is not very good. It will be good to get on the right track next year."

Chu Zhiwen was a little anxious when he heard that it was not very good, "Why is it not good?"

"For example, take Lu Zhuang as an example. Some teas are not practical and costly. Shu Zhuang only grows sweet potatoes. There is not much food. Those sweet potatoes are not bad, but they need to be ground into sweet potato powder to save them. "

"The orchards planted in Lin Zhuang also have low grain yields, and the fruits can't be preserved, so a lot is wasted. I thought, it can be made into canned sugar water, which can be preserved and sold to other places. I will buy more next year. These servants will plant fruit forests and food."

"So that's the case." Chu Zhiwen nodded: "These wastes are normal, and you can only save them if you have more ways, Ah Yu."

Chu Liu also nodded: "There are almost no fruits in our village. It's because people usually don't pay attention, and they are eaten up by birds."

"There is a special person in Zhuangzi. Once it is ripe, it is easy to be bumped when picking it. Naturally, it will not be stored for a long time. Like apricots, once they are ripe, they will be eaten in two or three days. Otherwise, they will all fall into the ground after half a month. Rotten."

"With the canned fruit you mentioned, Ayu, I don't have to worry about wasting it." Chu Liu was very happy.

"Master..." The voice of a servant saluting came from the door.

Immediately after, Chu Heng walked in with a chill in his body. He waited at the door for a while before entering.

"Ah Heng." Seeing her son coming in, Mrs. Chu Liu called for someone to bring him a chair.

Chu Heng sat down: "Mother, you rest."

"I have something I want to ask you." Mrs. Chu Liu rubbed her hands together with a smile on her face: "When are you going to Beijing for the exam?"

It is now December, and the Chinese New Year will be in less than a month, and I will try it in March of the next year.

From Nanchang County to the capital city, it takes two months to travel by horse-drawn carriage.

"Mom, let's start after the year."

"Is this in time?" Chu Zhiwen asked with a frown.

Ye Muyu also looked at him worriedly.

Chu Heng then said: "Go north by boat first, and then take a carriage when you arrive in Jinzhou."

"Will Master Xie's family also go with you?" Chu Liu asked.

"Um."

"Will it be unsafe?" She was still a little worried. After all, the further north she went, the waterways would freeze. Not to mention other accidents, the weather is the more difficult the further north she goes.

"It's our own merchant ship." Chu Heng reassured them.

"Well, Mother received a letter from your aunt who married far away. Back then, your aunt took good care of Mother. Now, her grandson is also going to Beijing for the exam. I hope to go with you, Ah Heng." Mrs. Chu Liu This is what I said at the beginning.

Nowadays, there are many relatives in the family, and even more good relationships.

Chu and Liu are also kind-hearted, so they naturally want to repay the relatives who helped him in the past, so they will mention this matter to their son.

"I'm leaving on the tenth day of the first lunar month, mother, please write a letter to my aunt." Chu Heng didn't refuse, but just made friends along the way, which is normal when rushing for the exam.

"Okay, let's eat quickly." Chu Zhiwen waited for the old wife to finish speaking, and hurriedly called for dinner.

Soon, servants brought all the dishes.
