Chapter 1718 It's Done
What he was most interested in, of course, were the lands purchased by Qiao Xuan.
You must go and see it.
This time he came to deliver all rice seeds. After a while, he will come again to deliver medicinal seeds and potato seeds to Qiao Xuan.
After several years of cultivation, the potatoes improved by Qiao Xuan have a much higher yield than the original ones. Now potatoes have gradually become popular in Yuzhang.
It is not a problem at all to transport enough seeds for Qiao Xuan.
The arrival of Le Zhengxiao brought back memories for Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, who recalled many past events. There were hardships and sweetness, but mostly sweetness.
Both of them couldn't help but miss home and Shaoding Village.
It was so far away from the capital before, it was useless to even think about it, so it was better not to think about it.
But it’s different now. Anze Prefecture is only more than 500 miles away from Yuzhang provincial capital. Even if the road is not easy to travel, more than 500 miles will only take two or three days longer than the normal journey.
Going back home is much easier than when I was in Beijing.
Unfortunately, Qiao Xuan is pregnant now and her figure is gradually showing, so Shao Yunduan will never let her go out.
Shao Yunduan could only comfort him, saying that after the child was born and grew up, Anzezhou would be much more stable, and they could take time to go back together...
After purchasing the rice seeds, how to deliver them safely to the 17 towns is also a matter that requires careful planning.
Shao Yunduan didn't believe that the three major families would just sit there and do nothing.
He had to be prepared for any eventuality.
No one was alarmed when the seeds were brought into the city, but their storage in the warehouse could not be concealed.
Everyone was shocked!
Lord Shao really...did this matter get done?
Don’t rely on the three major families!
For a while, many families sent their servants to hang out at the warehouse.
Naturally, no outsiders were allowed to approach the government warehouse. The large yard was surrounded by high walls and guarded by people. There was an open space within fifty meters around it, and no one was allowed to approach without permission.
But each family has its own ways.
They were not allowed to get close, so they just had to wait at the edge. They would always be able to chat with a few yamen runners and have a few words with them.
There is no doubt that these are the seeds that Lord Shao sent over, and this is the first batch, and the second and third batches will arrive in the next few days...
That night, the three major families met again at Fan's house to talk.
Old Mrs. Fan had the ugliest look on her face.
The old man of the Huo family looked gentle and seemed to be smiling slightly, but his heart was also in turmoil.
The eldest master of the Mei family always has a stern face and is cold and tolerant, and he is the same at this moment. It is hard to tell what his mood is.
However, this mood will definitely not be very beautiful.
Old Madam Fan was the first to lose her temper. She sneered sarcastically, "This Lord Shao is really capable. I didn't expect him to get this kind of seeds. But these are far from enough. He said there will be a second and third batch. Do you believe it?"
"Oh, I don't quite believe it. Is this a scam?"
Old Master Huo sighed: "Ah, no one can tell now. It seems that this Lord Shao is really not easy to mess with!"
Old Madam Fan snorted: "Old man Huo, you are only trying to boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige. This is easy. Just destroy this batch of seeds, isn't that enough?"
Old Master Huo and Master Mei looked at Old Madam Fan at the same time, and both of them frowned slightly.
Everyone thought in their hearts, is this old woman crazy?
