Chu Yiqing saw that it was already evening when they returned home. From afar, he saw Mrs. Huangfu and Mai Xiang waiting on the embankment of Shangjia Village, watching them. When they saw them coming back, Mai Xiang immediately ran up to greet them with a shout of joy.

When I went to town this time, in addition to buying some household items needed for farming, I also bought some white flour, which was enough for the Zhao family to eat for half a month. This was Chu Yiqing's repayment of the Zhao family's kindness in taking him in.

"Mother, can you bring something delicious to Mai Xiang?" Mai Xiang asked as she climbed onto the bullock cart.

Jin Yu couldn't help scolding: "You kid, you only know how to eat..." Before she could finish speaking, she saw Chu Yiqing take out two big red apples from her bag and put them on the wheat.

In his little hand: "Here, your mother bought it, one for each of you and grandma!"

Mai Xiang cheered, quickly and carefully carried it with her skirt, climbed out of the cart and ran towards the old lady Huangfu. Seeing the child's happy appearance, Jin Yu looked at Chu Yiqing sheepishly, "Sister, that fruit is precious.

,how do you..."

That fruit, even during the Chinese New Year, was not willing to buy one to offer to the ancestors. Chu Yiqing actually bought two to comfort his children...

"Sister Jinyu, believe me, our life will get better, two fruits are nothing!" Chu Yiqing said softly, with a pair of shining eyes, which made Jinyu couldn't help but nod.

When they got home, Mrs. Huangfu looked at the items that Chu Yiqing had brought back. She said nothing, just nodded, and then brought out the food for them.

At night, after a tiring day, Chu Yiqing lay on the bed, but he was still not sleepy. If there were such seeds, the ground would be fertilized, and the large temperature difference between day and night in this cold land of Chu was also a problem. I was thinking rightly.

While thinking about it, I heard low voices coming from the outer room. It turned out to be Jin Yujiang who briefly told the old lady what happened today.

The old lady pondered for a moment and then whispered: "Jin Yu, follow the Chu family girl and work hard. She is a dragon, and one day she will take off!"

Jin Yu quickly responded. In fact, starting from everything she saw when she entered the town today, Jin Yu was already determined to follow Chu Yiqing, and she had already admired Chu Yiqing in her heart.

Early the next morning, Jin Yu took Chu Yiqing up the mountain. The stones on the mountain were indeed talc. Once ground into gypsum powder, it was more than enough to make soil fertilizer.

Chu Yiqing explained the steps to Jin Yu. In the afternoon, Jin Yu found a free woman in the village to take care of the meal. Each person was given two copper plates. In one afternoon, he crushed two hundred kilograms of gypsum powder, poured it on and stored it.

The cow urine was sealed and placed in the ground. After three days, it was mixed with water and poured into the ground.

Although the people in the village were surprised that Chu Yiqing did this, they didn't believe it. This talc was of no use in ordinary times. It was just for keeping accounts on the wall, coaxing children to play, etc. How could it have the effect of fertilizing the ground? Everyone

They don’t say it on the surface, but they say behind the scenes that this is all nonsense, don’t just throw that wheat to death!

Taking advantage of these three days, Chu Yiqing took some money and bought more than ten acres of land in the back hill from the village. The land was a mixture of sand and soil. Due to the lack of nutrients, it was even more barren. Normally, wheat would not grow.

, so the village chief sold it to Chu Yiqing very cheaply.

Jin Yu followed Chu Yiqing, looking at these lands, and couldn't help but said: "Sister, no one wants this land, why do you..."

"Sister Jin Yu, this land is sandy, so it is definitely not possible to grow wheat and corn, but it is good to grow melons and fruits, which are very sweet!" Chu Yiqing bent down and picked up a small handful of soil grains for Jin Yu to see.

"But the land here is poor! Even with those talcum water pipes you mentioned, sister, the water is only enough for the two acres of wheat land. These ten acres of land..." Jin Yu couldn't help but worry.

"Sister Jinyu, I have a way, don't worry!" Chu Yiqing clapped his hands and looked at the mountains in the distance. He saw the bright light there, which was very dazzling, so he couldn't help but ask: "Sister Jinyu,

What is that place?"

Jin Yu looked at it and quickly replied, "That's a snow mountain. It's said that it's a cursed mountain. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round. The big temperature difference between day and night in our world is because of that snow mountain!"

"Really?" Only then did Chu Yiqing understand the reason for the climate change here. However, there are usually many secrets hidden in the snow-capped mountains. I must go and have a look someday. With this thought, Chu Yiqing took the gold and jade to the fields again.

Looking at the large field of withered and yellow wheat seedlings, Chu Yiqing felt a little distressed. That day she told the villagers about this method of soil fertilizer, and said that if they needed cow urine, they could go to her place to get it, but no one took action. Look,

The people who come here still don’t believe her, but it’s a pity that the wheat is barren...

"Sister Jinyu, how much can I buy from the grain harvested from this acre of land in a year?" Chu Yiqing looked back and asked.

"Only five hundred copper coins, this place is too poor!" Jin Yu sighed.

"Five hundred...that's half a tael of silver! How many people are there in the village and how many acres of land are there?" Chu Yiqing asked again.

"Eighteen households, with a population of sixty or seventy, right? This land belongs to Shangjia Village. There are fifty acres. Look, this area is completely planted with wheat!" Jin Yu pointed to the east.

"Sister Jinyu, if I give them one tael of silver a year and rent the land for five years, do you think they will rent it to me?" Chu Yiqing asked again.

Jin Yu was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Chu Yiqing. Only then did he realize that she was not asking casually, so he quickly said: "Sister, these lands are too poor to earn even one tael of silver a year. You will suffer a loss if you buy like this."

!Besides, these two hundred and fifty taels of silver...oh my god, where can I get them!"

Chu Yiqing smiled faintly, "Sister Jinyu, just tell me if they will rent it to me!"

Jin Yu nodded quickly: "Of course I will. You don't have to work, and you can get twice the harvest money..."

Chu Yiqing smiled slowly, "They also have to work. I rented these lands, and I will pay them extra wages when they start working in the future!" If everyone no longer lives in this place because the land is rented out, then Chu Yiqingzhong will

Where do the local laborers come from? Chu had thought about this early in the morning.

"But in this case, sister, you..." Jin Yu did not continue. The people in their Shangjia Village have been here for so many years and have relied on the weather for their livelihood, but they have never encountered such a good thing!

"Sister Jinyu, I just came to the village, and the villagers may not believe me. You still have prestige in the village. Can you speak to the village chief for me? Don't worry, I will raise the money in a few days.

, I will see Yinzi sign the documents when the time comes!" Chu Yiqing said again.

Jin Yu saw that her words were firm, and then she realized that Chu Yiqing was not joking, but the calculation here cost several hundred taels of silver. Such a farm family would never be able to make money in a lifetime. I really don't know how Chu Yiqing got it.

Besides, this is a loss-making deal... Jin Yu still wanted to persuade him, but seeing that Chu Yiqing was determined, he could only think of going back to the old lady to discuss it.

Chu Yiqing knew that Jin Yu was muttering in his heart. Indeed, this was only a few hundred taels, which was not a small amount. If he wanted to get it in a few days without stealing or robbing... Chu Yiqing decided to go to the town again tomorrow and collect all the jewelry on his body.

After that, let's look for ways to make money. Besides, the master chef at Zuixianlou is still waiting for her to teach her cooking skills.
