âNow, our county seems to be mainly planting sweet potatoes. However, the yield of this thing is high. Iâm afraid that we wonât be able to sell it after planting it.â
âIndeed. I heard from the boat runners that Big Ming is already selling sweet potatoes everywhere. Iâm afraid itâs really not easy to sell.â
âThen leave it for me. When the sweet potatoes are harvested in autumn, Iâll get my subordinates to go to the various villages to collect them.â Gu Chengrui said.
âReally?â
âOf 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, thereâs also chili, soybeans, and broad beans. You can all plant them.
Weâll take as much as you have.â
âWith your words, we have an idea. Then weâll go back and tell the villagers.â
â Tell me, when we collect them, until we reach the Mountain Taste Residence, Manager Sun will arrange it.â
On the other end, Bai Jingping was surprised to hear people discussing Gu Chengsiâs land as he passed by.
Gu Chengsi came over and sat down after a round of politeness.â When I was walking over just now, I heard that you rejected the offer of those wealthy families. Is that true?â
âYes, 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 canât handle it.
Also, I wonât be at home all year round in the future. Iâm afraid that Iâll cause trouble again, so I rejected it.â âIsnât this just nice?â Gu Chengsi smiled.â! can let you collect more taxes, right?â
âThatâs true.â 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.
âOh right, which county did you get assigned to?â she asked curiously.
â The county where Chen Peng used to live is a flat plain. Itâs not easy to make achievements there.â
Bai Jingping was stunned for a moment. After remembering who Chen Peng was, he laughed in his heart.
After that, he said,â Each has its own benefits. Itâs also stable there. Now that everything has just calmed down, itâs still easy to make achievements.â
âOh right, has Lord Sun been transferred to the Tranquil Sun Residence to be the magistrate?â
âThatâs true. You can ask him more when you go over. His ability is quite good.â
âI will.â
On the female side, Madam Wang brought her two daughters-in-law and Gu Ziyi.
Madam Liu, Madam Yao, Madam Yang, and Gu Chengyeâs 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,â Madam Gu is so blessed. Your son has passed the Jinshi examination at such a young age. His future will definitely be bleak.â
âMadam Tian, you flatter me. I was just lucky.â Lady Wang smiled.
âYouâre too humble. I have a niece in my maiden family. Although she came from a merchant family, sheâs literate and can manage her own shop.
Do you want to matchmake them?â
âHeâs already married and has a son whoâs not even two years old, so I think we should forget about this matter.â
âNo matter what, heâs still a county magistrate. Isnât it too rare for him to have a woman inside and outside?â
âI donât think it will be chaotic if there are too many women.
Besides, weâre from a small family. We really canât afford to raise so many women. I think we should forget about it.â
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..
