Someone mentally calculated and hurriedly said, “Miss Su, I’ll buy 10 pounds of rapeseed since I brought a lot of money.”

“Madam, why are you buying so much?” A woman beside her asked.

“I have many brothers, so I’ll give some to them.”

Everyone heard that and agreed that they should quickly buy something so valuable. Otherwise, there would be no more rapeseeds left.

“Miss Su, please give me another two pounds of seeds. I only brought 30 coins, so I can’t buy much.”

Su Binglan could not help but chuckle when she looked at everyone’s reactions. She thought the buyers were adorable but had to remind everyone, “Don’t worry. I still have plenty of rapeseed. You can return to our village and buy more if you need them. The price won’t go up either.”

There were many more rapeseed in the back of the mountain, not to mention the ones in her pocket dimension were overgrowing. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Su Binglan’s words. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You’re such a good person, Miss Su. If you were anyone else, they would’ve stocked up and sold such a valuable thing at a high price.”

“Rapeseeds are good things, and everyone will buy them, even if it cost ten coins per 500 grams.”

“Miss Su is only charging everyone five coins per 500 grams, which is very fair.”

Su Binglan smiled. “Thank you for your praises. After you buy the rapeseed, you can still rely on yourselves to grow them. I’m just teaching you guys a little bit.”

“We understand, especially since you explained it in great detail.”

Su Wenxiu, listening one the sidelines, felt it was amazing. He had followed his parents to work in the fields when he was seven to eight years old. Although he was now cultivating herbs and learning medicine, he also understood things about farming and crops.

He knew rapeseeds were good things just by hearing what his sister said.

‘If news of this spread, many will come swarming to snatch up the rapeseeds. These people probably wouldn’t have learned about rapeseed if it weren’t for my parents.

‘Mother and Father never discovered rapeseed, but Little Sister did. Even if Mother and Father discovered them, they wouldn’t know how to cultivate the rapeseeds. My sister knows these things.’ Su Wenxiu admired his sister even more.

Su Binglan handed the rapeseeds to whoever bought them, and everyone paid her. Everyone trusted the young lady’s words. After all, Su Binglan’s reputation was so good that everyone would immediately know about her whenever someone mentioned her name.

Moreover, some had distant relatives in Su Teng Village, so they discovered that Su Binglan was a good person. These people had also heard about Su Binglan when they went to get oil that day.

The eight visitors smiled and looked ecstatic when they took their rapeseeds home, and the Su Teng villagers noticed them.

“That’s strange. What are those people holding? Why do they look so excited after visiting the Su family’s house?

“It can’t be that good, right?”

Everyone knew how capable Su Binglan was and guessed the eight visitors had gained something good from her.

“What are you guys holding?” A Su Teng Villager could not help but ask.

The eight visitors felt embarrassed to hide it, so they answered, “These are rapeseeds.”

The visitors were honest and never thought of lying. Moreover, they were in Su Teng Village, so the visitors could not hide such things since the Su Teng villagers would know about it sooner or later.

Since the visitors would return to Su Teng Village for more rapeseeds in the future, they knew it was best to forge a good relationship with the Su Teng villagers.

“Rapeseeds? We’ve never heard of those.”

“Is it another valuable thing Binglan discovered?”

“They said its rapeseed. It sounds like something they can plant.”

A woman pushing a small cart of five kilograms of rapeseed said, “Indeed, these are valuable. We can’t explain it properly, but you can ask Miss Su about them.”

When the eight visitors left, one Su Teng villager curiously went to Su Binglan to ask about rapeseed.

Su Binglan was about to head to town when she ran into the villagers asking about rapeseed. Therefore, she patiently explained things to the villagers. She did not get impatient, no matter who asked questions.

If someone needed help understanding it better, Su Binglan would explain it a second time. She did not intend to hide anything from anyone because she had just found these rapeseeds on the back of the mountain and did not have time to introduce them to everyone.

She wanted to share the rapeseeds with the Su Teng villagers. However, she would have to tell First Granduncle Su and let him do the statistics if the villagers wanted to plant these things. That would save her some trouble, after all.

Either way, she was not thinking of using the rapeseeds to make money, as her primary goal was to help everyone.

After popularizing rapeseed, everyone could use it for cooking bok Choy, an essential vegetable for the villagers.

“Rapeseeds are exceptional, Miss Su! I’ll go home and get money to buy some too.”

“Much time has passed since the autumn harvest, and I’m so bored at home. My wife goes to work at the factory, but I don’t know what to do at home. Now. I can plant rapeseeds.”

“We won’t have problem planting crops and other things during spring, too. We can harvest our rapeseed by then, and our land will be empty again during spring.”

Everyone wanted to buy rapeseeds.

“Don’t worry, everyone,” Su Binglan said, “We have plenty of rapeseeds. I’ll ask my first granduncle to count them, and you can buy as many as you want.”

Everyone trusted Su Binglan and Chief Su. Hence, they listened to Su Binglan and returned home, waiting for Chief Su to decide.

Su Binglan noticed it was almost noon and could no longer go to town. Instead, she went straight to Chief Su’s house. Chief Su and Grandaunt Su warmly welcomed her when she arrived.

Su Teng Village had improved exponentially because of Su Binglan. As the village chief, Chief Su was ecstatic.

“First Granduncle Su, are you busy with anything?”

Chief Su was writing something with his head lowered as he said, “Many people want to settle in our village now. They want to buy land and build houses, but our village isn’t where just anyone can come and go.

“I’ll check on their information since we only accept people with good backgrounds to live here. We can’t let those with trouble come here.”

Chief Su did not manage Su Teng Village for money’s sake. He would not let others settle here if they were not good people, even if they tried paying him off.

Bluntly put, one would need a good family background, be united and friendly, and be willing to help others to live in Su Teng Village. The village was bountiful with land, so taking in more people would be fine. However, Chief Su was very strict.

“Binglan, quickly sit on the bed,” Grandaunt Su said smilingly, “Your granduncle is just being a grump.”

“I think that’s good,” Su Binglan said, “The atmosphere in our village is excellent, so it’s relaxing to live here..”
