The news that Tian Minyan's family had a good relationship with Prince Xian spread like wildfire. People who had some friendship with Tian Minyan's family before heard about it and immediately started to take action.
No, because of the potato seed matter, people came to the door one after another. They said openly that they wanted to buy some seed potatoes to plant, but secretly they were trying to find out the extent of Tian Minyan's relationship with the prince. However, Tian Minyan and the others were vague about it.
As for potato seed potatoes, Tian Minyan has already announced that these seed potatoes are reserved on her own land and are not intended to be sold. However, they can be reserved in advance and the harvest will be around June or July. The reserved seedlings are
Twenty-five taels of silver per plant, and if you buy potatoes by the pound, it costs one tael of silver per pound.
On the first floor of Tian's house, there are also many new dishes made with potatoes. Among them, a plate of fried shredded potatoes costs 50 yuan, and there are also crispy French fries with homemade sweet and sour sauce. This one is especially popular.
Children like it. The business on the first floor is booming, which makes shopkeeper Feng smile. For a while, potato fever spreads in many places in Qingzhou.
Therefore, even though potato seedlings are expensive, many families go to Tianjia to reserve them. After all, they can not only make food, but can also withstand famine.
And knowing that the master and the prince were acquainted, and that the young lady was on good terms with the prince, the long-term servants of the Tian family walked with a wind, not to mention how proud they were. Fortunately, Tian Minyan had warned her not to use the prince's excuse to gain advantage.
If you do good and do evil, you will be beaten to death with sticks, so they restrained themselves a little and didn't cause any trouble.
Henghe, Tianzhai.
Tian Huaide was swept into the main room with a gust of wind, his face extremely excited.
"Dad, dad, good news, great news."
The old man sat up from the kang sickly, looked at the smiling face of his eldest son, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Dad, I didn't expect that the third child and the others were so capable that they would cling to Prince Xian." Tian Huaide said excitedly, his eyes glowing blue.
Mr. Tian was startled, and Mr. Jiang was also confused.
"What are you talking about? What prince?"
"Prince Xian, the seventeenth brother who is most valued by the emperor today." Tian Huaide said quickly: "Lao San and his friends have grown crops on their hundred acres of wasteland. What are they called potatoes? The yield per mu is three thousand kilograms. This has spread.
.”
"What?" The old man lost his composure and asked in a trembling voice: "Did food really grow in that wasteland?"
Isn’t he old and deaf? Not only did he grow food, but he also produced three thousand catties per acre. This is simply impossible. That piece of land can still grow food!
"Dad, what the master said is true. Those potatoes are so valuable, and now they are spread all over the country." Mrs. Chen walked in and said with a smile: "Dad, the third brother is doing great now."
"It's true." The old man was very shocked and sat there muttering to himself.
"Dad, please quickly write a letter and ask the third child to introduce me to the wise king. You must seize such a good opportunity, dad." Tian Huaide said excitedly.
"Yes, dad, maybe with the prince's recommendation, my official position can be upgraded by two levels." Mrs. Chen was also very excited.
"Dad, Dad, the third child is so impersonal that he didn't even mention that he knew such a big backer." Tian Huaixiao rushed in and shouted loudly: "Huh! Now that Prince Xian is our Tian family's backer, let me see what those
Don’t you dare to bark like a bastard?”
"Old man, please quickly send someone to find Erlang and ask him to come back. Now that we have a big backer, why would Tiger dare to kill Erlang?" said Li, following behind Tian Huaixiao.
When Mrs. Chen brought the two people in, her smile suddenly disappeared and she snorted.
That matter finally settled down, and now she sees that the person in the second house has a nose that is not a nose, and eyes that are not eyes, but she still can't get rid of these blood-sucking insects.
When Tian Huaixiao and his wife interrupted him, the old man's thoughts immediately came back to his senses. He glanced at these people and his heart sank.
"I'm afraid that the third brother and the others are just casual acquaintances with Prince Xian, and they don't have any support." The old man rolled up his cigarette and said calmly.
Tian Huaide was very anxious after hearing this and said urgently: "Dad, this is a great opportunity. It's not like you don't know.
My son is so oppressed by the county magistrate that he has to spend a lot of effort and money to pass the assessment. Dad, if I get promoted, this situation won't be the same."
He was really frustrated. The old man refused to mention such a good opportunity. "My lord Xian, that is the real royal family."
"Yes, dad, we and the third child are brothers, but we are just introducing one to the other, so what does it have to do with it?" Tian Huaixiao also disapproved.
"If I say nothing, I won't succeed. If anyone dares to cause trouble to me, don't blame me for not recognizing his son." The old man scolded him fiercely.
The room suddenly became a little quiet, no one dared to hum, but their faces were very calm.
"The third one is a farmer. No matter how talented he is, he is still farming. How can he like a son of a heavenly family? It means that he recognizes such an acquaintance, and you just follow the wind and rain." The old man saw that they were not confused.
, then
He said with a stern face: "Let me tell you, don't think that because the third child recognizes the prince, you can do whatever you want and do something extraordinary. See if the third child can really save you."
The old man is still calm. Although he doesn't know how good the relationship between Lao San and the others is with Prince Xian, no matter how good the relationship is, they cannot be used for calculation and nonsense. After all, the Tian family is unpredictable, and one careless move can overthrow the family.
The whole family.
"No, Dad, I heard that Prince Xian also called Yan Yatou "Yatou". How could he be so affectionate..." Tian Huaide retorted.
"What does that mean? Boss, heaven is unpredictable." The old man sighed: "Work diligently and peacefully as your servant, and there will always be political achievements."
Tian Huaide was furious, but Mrs. Chen winked at him, so he had no choice but to comply.
"Everyone, go out. I'll say it again, don't act recklessly outside just because you know the prince." The old man warned in a deep voice, then looked at Mrs. Chen and said, "Sister-in-law, do you know?"
Mrs. Chen's heart skipped a beat and she said hurriedly and respectfully: "I understand, Dad."
What's going on? Why did the old man specifically mention her name? Does he know something?
"Everyone, get out."
The old man asked a few people to go down. When no one was in the room, Jiang immediately asked: "Old man, what kind of prince is he really so great?"
The old man took a puff of dry cigarette, squinted his eyes and said, "If we really have a friendship, there is no difference in the wealth of the third family in the future. I am relieved. I am only worried about the boss and the second brother."
After hearing this, Mrs. Jiang snorted, curled her lips and said with disdain: "What does the third child know? He can farm two acres of land. How can someone with such a noble status be on good terms with you? Come on, let's see. It's definitely true.
I made it because I’m afraid people won’t know how glorious you are.”
The old man didn't say anything. He was thinking about recent events. He also thought that the eldest brother seemed to be richer these days. The hundred taels of silver he helped the second house settle the matter with Sister Qing was given to him without blinking an eye.
He was just afraid that Dafang would do something extraordinary behind his back.
