Over the next few days, Zhen Wanwan drew pictures of the advanced agricultural tools from her previous life and handed them over to Cui Jinyi.
"My lady, this is!!!"
Cui Jinyi stared at the very abstract drawings on the paper, her eyes filled with confusion and helplessness.
Zhen Wanwan awkwardly touched her nose. She had overestimated herself. Whether in this life or the previous one, she was always clumsy with her hands.
"Ah Jin, this is a new farm tool I drew. You can learn more about it by referring to the text next to it. Take it down and study it to see if you can make it. I don't have many of these things, so you'll have to figure out the details yourself..."
Cui Jinyi nodded knowingly and carefully looked at the blueprints in her hand, asking Zhen Wanwan about a few things she didn't understand.
"Don't worry, my wife. This farm tool has a very novel design. My subordinates will study it and be able to make it for you!"
Hearing this, Zhen Wanwan smiled with relief, thankful that she had such a precious Ah Jin.
She checked the Tmall Genie store and found that advanced agricultural tools were indeed available, but they were too high-tech and out of step with the times.
She was worried that if she took them out, someone with ulterior motives would notice something unusual. Her original intention was to promote these farm tools to ordinary people and benefit farmers.
Of course, the most important thing is that even if she could buy up rural areas in bulk, she wouldn't have that much spare money, and the people might not be able to afford it.
After thinking about it, she decided to let Cui Jinyi make one, so that she wouldn't have to come up with excuses later.
If this set of farm tools was made by the Cui family, it would be beneficial to both the people and the Cui family.
At the same time, they will also be the first to benefit.
After learning about one thing, Zhen Wanwan then turned her attention to the Yu family who were coming soon.
Zhu Yuan wrote that he had taken care of things and that he should be able to deal with the Northern Hu people outside the city in a few days.
Zhen Wanwan also told Zhu Yuan about the Cui family's affairs, including the fact that the Cui family possessed weapons.
Her intention was to have Zhuyuan send someone to transport the goods back, in order to minimize the soldiers' close combat and reduce the mortality rate.
However, Zhu Yuan did not mention it in his reply, and it is unknown whether he took it to heart.
With nothing to do, Zhen Wanwan began planning the several hilltops she had bought.
She used almost all her spare money to buy land. In addition, she also had people secretly buy a lot of land in several neighboring counties.
One of the mountains posed a particularly difficult problem for her.
This hill is said to be the battlefield where two armies fought more than two hundred years ago, and the local people are so reluctant to even go up the hill to chop firewood.
However, this piece of land has a larger area and a better geographical location than other mountains, but its reputation is not very good.
After thinking about it, Zhen Wanwan realized that it would be a bit redundant to use all of it for land reclamation and farming.
Not to mention that the entire Anqing Prefecture is now clearing land to prepare for next year's planting, it is clear that next year's harvest will be bountiful, and Anqing Prefecture will not lack food, and may even have a surplus.
Besides, she already had a lot of grain stored up in her own space; the harvested grain alone was enough to feed an army of more than 200,000.
Although having more food is never a bad thing, Zhen Wanwan would be more willing to use it for other, more beneficial purposes.
Thinking about these trivial matters, Zhen Wanwan rubbed her temples in frustration.
She was more inclined to gain the admiration of the people and attract their attention and support.
During her free time, Zhen Wanwan looked up at her adorable child, who was engrossed in reading a book.
Seeing him, so small and illiterate, engrossed in reading a book, was something she didn't see at all.
It must be because he inherited Zhu Yuan's genes!
Suddenly, Zhen Wanwan had a flash of inspiration and came up with an excellent idea.
