"Master Su, isn't this wheat?" Zhao Lichang asked, holding a rice seed in his hand. Although it looked a little different, it was still very similar in general. It should be another variety.
Wheat, right?
Su Yu shook his head and said: "This is not wheat. It was passed down from Zhaonan Kingdom and is called rice."
Hearing Su Yu say this, the people around him became even more confused. Since they knew what it was, why did they take it back and ask?
But when they heard that this was something from Zhaonan Kingdom, everyone stared at this rare thing. You must know that although Zhaonan Kingdom lives next to Anqing, it has been closed for many years. The monarch of Zhaonan Kingdom does not allow peace between Anqing and Anqing.
Anyone who has any contact with Zhaonan Kingdom.
Just like that, it is very troublesome to get out of Zhaonan Kingdom to Anqing Kingdom.
Now Mr. Su has brought this thing that looks like wheat but is not wheat and says it is rice-like grain, which shows that he is quite capable.
"Then Mr. Su, why did you come here?" Zhao Lichang asked doubtfully. It is said that people like Mr. Su would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. If someone like Mr. Su came to look for him now, he must have a purpose.
Zhao Lichang is an exquisite person, and he asked when Su Yu opened his mouth.
Su Yu looked at the seeds in Zhao Lichang's hand and said, "I want to find someone to plant this rice."
"It's easy to say! It's easy to sow!" It's just a strange seed. He has completed the tasks assigned by Mr. Su, and when the autumn comes, the silver reward will definitely be large.
At this time, Butler Fu said: "Is it easy to plant rice in front of you? Last year, the young master sent someone to plant it, but the seedlings died just after they appeared. However, the wheat that was also taken care of grew well.
."
Although it is said that their young master came here to beg someone to try planting this thing, rice is very valuable. If these old farmers are allowed to plant it blindly, I am afraid that this kind of rice will be in vain by then.
Butler Fu didn't expect these old farmers to know this thing. Even among the people in his village, no one said that it was easy to grow.
The eldest son said that he must come and ask these farmers, maybe someone will know this thing.
When Zhao Lichang heard what Butler Fu said, he hesitated and asked: "It's difficult to plant this kind of thing?" Isn't it just burying it in the soil, waiting for the seeds to sprout, grow out, weeding, and waiting for harvest?
At this time, Butler Fu looked around and said, "My young master said that if anyone can grow this rice for him, he will reward him with twenty taels of silver."
As soon as this statement came out, the surrounding area was in a commotion! They all said that Mr. Su was rich, and now everyone really saw how generous this young man was.
"I'm here, I want to plant!"
"Er Gouzi, your family didn't have a good wheat harvest last year. How dare you plant Mr. Su's precious seeds? It's better for me to do it."
"What are you arguing about? In my opinion, our family is the best. Our ancestors have been farmers in Qingshi Village for generations. We must have more experience than you."
People who have a lot of land at home plan to get rewarded with money if they grow such crops. If they can't grow them, the land will remain empty, and there will be no loss at all.
Who knows, at this time Butler Fu added: "If the seed cannot be planted, then I will pay my young master twenty taels of silver."
As soon as Butler Fu said these words, the people who just wanted to plant the rice with red eyes hesitated.
Twenty taels of silver! It is attractive enough. After planting it, I am afraid that I will become a rich man in this Qingshi Village, but what if I can’t win? I’m afraid I won’t be able to afford the loss even if I sell it!
The reason Su Yu set such a condition that he would be fined if he couldn't plant anything was because he didn't want his seeds to be wasted by those who blindly wanted to earn reward money.
You must know that for these seeds, almost all of his last people were inside.
At this time, Zhao Lichang carefully put the seeds he had just poured out into his purse, and then handed them to Butler Fu. It was better not to take this job. Although the money is attractive, if the money is not planted, he will not be able to grow it.
Can afford to accompany you.
But if it really doesn't come out, it would be bad to offend this Tu Tai Sui. Who doesn't know that Mr. Su is a smiling tiger? If he offends him, the consequences will not be something he can bear.
At this time, Butler Fu looked around and asked, "Is it true that no one dares to plant?"
There was nothing but silence around, and no one was willing to take this risk.
Just when the housekeeper thought that no one would want to plant this rice, a clear and pleasant female voice came: "I will plant it!"
"Xi'er!" Shen Ziyan hurriedly called Shuangxi. Not to mention this strange rice, even if they were asked to plant it on ordinary land, they had never planted it before. They didn't know what kind of harvest they would get.
Xi'er must have said this because she wanted to use the matter of planting land for Mr. Su to get the local chief to allocate a good piece of land to her family.
When Butler Fu saw Shuangxi, he felt a little unhappy. It was because of this little girl's family that he was so ignored by the young master! When we came to Qingshi Village today, the young master didn't want to take him with him, so he followed him through hard work.
of.
It seems that the young master has no intention of reusing himself in the future.
On normal days, he might have taught this family a lesson, but now in front of the young master, if he ridiculed them, it would make the young master feel that he had a grudge against their family because of what happened yesterday.
After thinking about it like this, Butler Fu asked with a smile: "Is this the Shen family's wife? You said you want to plant this rice?"
Shen Ziyan quickly smiled and said: "My wife is still young and ignorant. How can we grow this rice?"
Seeing Shen Ziyan trying to undermine him, Shuangxi felt helpless. Do you want her to say that she knows how to grow rice? In fact, she is not a silly girl from this world? But a person who has seen the world?
Naturally, Shuangxi couldn't say that, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Guanshi Fu, we are going to plant this rice."
Then Shuangxi tilted his head slightly and said to Shen Ziyan: "Ziyan, let's plant this rice. Believe me, we will definitely be able to grow it."
Shen Ziyan frowned, he always felt that the double happiness thing was a bit impulsive, but when he thought of his little lady's unique intelligence, Shen Ziyan couldn't help but want to believe it.
Su Yu looked at Shuangxi at this time. This little girl is really extraordinary. A sweet voice came: "Madam Shen, do you know this rice? Can you grow this rice?"
Shuangxi looked directly at Su Yu and said, "I just think I can grow this rice. Mr. Su, please let me grow this rice."
"Haha, isn't this that silly girl An? Everyone said that this girl's stupid illness has recovered, but in my opinion, she is probably going crazy again." I don't know who heard such a voice in the crowd.
Shen Ziyan and Shen Yan turned pale on the spot and looked around, but the person who had just spoken seemed to realize that the Shen family man was here and fell silent. I don't know who said this.
All I know is that she is a woman.
Shuangxi didn't hear these words, but spoke to Su Yu seriously and sincerely.
"Ms. Shen family, I think you should not plant this rice. I know the situation of your Shen family, so you should plant some other crops peacefully." Zhao Lichang said in a timely manner.
Shuangxi murmured in his heart that Chief Zhao was afraid that if he got involved with Su Yu and farmed the land for Mr. Su, he would no longer be able to seize his own land.
If you don’t get good land for me, I won’t even bother to get it now! Shuangxi thought.
At this time, Su Yu raised her lips and said with a smile: "Since Madam Shen wants to plant this rice, let Madam Shen do it."
"Master... can the Shen family grow it well?" Fu Yu asked hesitantly. In fact, he wanted to say no at first, but then he thought about it, if the Shen family woman can't grow this thing, then she can't grow it.
Now that they have something to look at, the words that come out of his mouth just express the skepticism that a housekeeper should have.
Su Yu smiled and said to Shuang Xi, "I'll send someone to deliver those seeds to you tomorrow." After saying that, she walked in the direction of the carriage.
Waiting for the jingling sound to spread far away, people in this courtyard set their eyes on Shuangxi.
Some were gloating, some were sighing, and some had expressions of incomprehension.
Zhao Lichang looked at the Shuangxi family in embarrassment at this time. No matter what happened, whether the rice could be grown was another matter, but for now, it must be planted on the Shen family's land.
"Brothers of the Shen family, madam of the Shen family, do you have anything else to do?" Chief Zhao asked knowingly.
Shuangxi suddenly smiled.
Zhao Lichang didn't know why, but he always felt that this girl's smile meant she was trying to set up a password.
"Chief, we are here today to discuss with you. Take a look at that place..." Shen Ziyan said warmly. In any case, the Shen family is not yet capable of confronting this local emperor head-on. The only one who would suffer in this way is the Shen family.
Before Shen Ziyan finished speaking, the head there said with a smile on his face: "What did the Shen brothers do for this matter? When I came back today, I resigned from the landlord and decided to let you choose the land first.
Already."
I have seen people fall out, but I have never seen Zhao Lichang fall out so quickly! When we were in the field today, he still had an expression of indifference, but now he has changed his attitude so quickly.
Shuangxi raised his eyes and glanced at the fat man and said: "Our family needs that piece of land, but you will also give us two acres of good wasteland."
Two acres? These two acres of land are nothing in this sparsely populated place. Some wealthy families even have more than an acre of land for their vegetable gardens.
Director Zhao did not expect that the Shen family's wife would put forward such a condition and even ask for the water to dig the land! Could it be that the stupid disease really has not been cured?
In this ancient time, women could not talk and do anything. Zhao Lichang looked at Shen Ziyan. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest support.
