Chapter 816: Hope of the Prairie
Shan Mancheng carried the bag and raised his eyebrows slightly. He really didn't expect Shengze to send him gifts.
He sent Tasang to give a reminder simply because he didn't want other tribes outside the Great Wall to take advantage of Dajin.
Deep down, it's mostly selfish.
Shan Mancheng opened the bundle, and inside was only a letter and two things that didn't look very fresh, one with a light red skin and the other with a yellow skin. There were only five pieces of each, and they were covered with some unknown dust, and some of them had little buds sprouting out.
"Young Master Cheng San specifically told me that no matter what happens on the road, I must not let the things in my bag run out of water, and I must not eat these things." Tasang added.
Shan Mancheng didn't reply. He opened the letter and was about to take a look at what Shengze wrote. However, after reading just two lines, his eyes widened.
"If you can grow the sweet potatoes and potatoes you've got, it means God will not destroy your Jiayu clan. These two are high-yield crops discovered by Sixth Sister. The planting instructions are on the back of this letter."
Wa Tuci and Tasang looked at each other. They didn't understand what Shan Mancheng saw. Why did he look a little excited?
When he saw the last sentence in the letter, Shan Mancheng's pupils constricted and his eyes flickered.
"Hopefully we haven't created a tough opponent for ourselves."
If Shan Mancheng still doesn't understand what Sheng Ze said, he is just pretending to be stupid.
If what Tasang brought back was really as productive as Shengze said, then once the Jiayu tribe showed signs of rebellion, Shengze would have indeed cultivated an opponent for Dajin.
"Go and call the old man in the tribe who is best at planting." Shan Mancheng put down the letter, but his grip on the bundle tightened a little, and his expression had returned to normal.
Wa Tuci immediately went out to call for help, but Tasang mustered up the courage to ask, "Chengji, what did Master Cheng San say?"
"Tasang," Shan Mancheng suddenly took two steps forward, patted Tasang's shoulders twice, and said with a smile, "You are a hero of the grassland. From now on, everyone on the grassland will remember you."
Tasan was confused and asked, "Why did Chengji say that?"
Shan Mancheng refused to say more and said to him, "You've been tired for so long. Go down and rest first. We can talk later if there's anything else."
Now, he began to look forward to the yield of the two crops that Shen Qingqian found.
It's a pity that the amount they gave was too little. I don't know how long it will take for the Jiayu people to achieve food self-sufficiency.
Let me put it another way. On July 28th, Qingyun Academy started to provide collective training for the teachers it invited.
Ah Xiu was born in Shangyang Village. Although the elders in the village were not as biased towards boys as those outside, the conditions in Shangyang Village were too poor in the past. Boys did not have money to go to school, let alone girls.
Therefore, A Xiu is illiterate.
The illiterate Ah Xiu felt very inferior when she saw other teachers in the academy who were either well-mannered or elegant.
Shen Qingqian was in charge of the preparations for the girls' school. Originally, she had no intention of showing up in public, but Mr. Qi asked Shen Jun to speak several times, and finally came to the school in person to invite her to say something to the girls' school and other teachers in the academy. She had no choice but to bite the bullet and go ahead.
After a few routine conversations, Shen Qingqian suddenly changed the subject and looked at Ah Xiu. "I believe all the teachers have already heard that Qingyun Academy has opened a women's school this year. The biggest difference between the women's school and the men's school is that we have invited outstanding talents in textiles, printing and dyeing, cooking, and medicine to serve as teachers for the women's school."
