Everyone else in the yard huddled together, not daring to move.
Kang Yueran asked, "Where is the accountant?"
A thin old man with a mustache stood up tremblingly, "I, I'm the accountant!"
"Tell me, what's the situation on this farm? What's grown there? How many tenant farmers are there?"
"The village grows winter wheat. There are over sixty tenant farmers, all from Mantian Village."
More than 60 households? "How many households are there in Mantian Village?"
The accountant shrank his neck and said, "Totally, in total... I don't know how many households there are in total."
Kang Yueran suddenly raised her voice, "Don't you know how many households there are? Or are all the tenants in Mantian Village yours?"
The accountant was almost scared to death, "Miss, spare me! This is none of my business. I am just an accountant. The village is managed by the head of the village."
The land deed had not yet been obtained, so Kang Yueran did not rush to call the people from Mantian Village. "Ask someone to take us around!"
The winter wheat in the field is already half a foot tall and looks very beautiful in green.
Chai Rong had never seen winter wheat before. "Is this winter wheat? Where does wheat grow? Underground?"
Kang Yueran was speechless, but she remained serious as she replied, "No, the wheat seedlings will grow into ears as they continue to grow. Don't ask me what earing is, I can't explain it clearly. You can come to the fields and take a look next year when the wheat is ripe."
Chai Rong nodded. "Are you really going to grow grapes and watermelons after you get the farm?"
Xiao Liuzi reminded him, "This is all fertile land. I'm afraid we can't grow grapes or watermelons here, but we can grow sweet potatoes!"
The fields in Dayong must be used to grow crops, and no changes can be made without authorization. This is also to ensure Dayong's grain production.
Kang Yueran frowned. "Grapes and watermelons are also edible, why not?"
Xiao Liuzi smiled ingratiatingly, "But grapes and watermelons can't fill my stomach."
"Yuck! What should I do? Can I grow vegetables?"
"You can grow vegetables. You can grow wheat in the winter and vegetables in the summer. You don't have to worry about either!"
"No, what I mean is growing vegetables in winter. I don't want to grow wheat because the yield is too low." Kang Yueran sighed. Isn't it too much to grow four hundred acres of vegetables?
Chai Rong was surprised and asked, "How can we grow vegetables in winter? Won't they all freeze to death?"
"It can keep the vegetables warm. I'm not afraid of freezing to death. But more than 400 acres is too much." If she grows vegetables, the vegetables of the surrounding people may not be sold.
Xiao Liuzi added, "If you want to grow grapes and watermelons, there is some wasteland nearby. However, it will take a few years to cultivate the wasteland."
Kang Yueran thought about it and decided that reclaiming wasteland was an option. "Let's get the land deed first!" At worst, she could trade the fertile farmland for the wasteland.
Everyone returned to the farm, and the head of the farm had already arrived with Wang, the steward of the Zhang Mansion.
Steward Wang, the chief steward of the Zhang residence, recognized Qin Shu and Xiao Liuzi immediately. His anger was instantly extinguished as if a basin of cold water had been poured over him. "Princess Yongtai is well! Sixth Prince is well!"
Qin Shu glanced at Kang Yueran and said, "I'm just a guest today. If you have anything to say, please talk to Miss Kang."
It’s best not to offend anyone who can let the princess accompany you! “Yes! Miss Kang is well!”
Kang Yueran asked, "Have you met Zhang Sheng? What did the village head tell you?"
"I haven't seen the Fifth Young Master, I just heard what the village head said. Why don't you, young lady, explain this to me?"
"Hmph! You should go back and ask your young master. He knows where I live. Ask him to send the deed to me!"
Seeing that Qin Shu didn't express her opinion, Butler Wang continued to test her, "Miss Kang, my old lady is still waiting for my report at home. I have to know the reason."
Kang Yueran winked at Hu Xiaocheng, who walked up to Butler Wang and slapped him hard, "Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you ask my daughter to explain to you!"
Steward Wang was so humiliated that his eyes turned red with hatred. He ordered the people behind him, "Hit them!"
These twenty people were the guards of the Earl's Mansion, brought here by Steward Wang. They all heard Steward Wang call Qin Shu "Princess", so how could they dare to fight with the Princess given their status?
Butler Wang pointed at Chai Rong and said, "Bring that little girl to me." The little girl looked the weakest.
Chai Rong jumped out, "You are so bold! You even dare to bully me!"
Seeing that the guards didn't move, Butler Wang turned around and kicked the person in front of him, "Go! Whoever dares not go, I will..."
His words came to an abrupt end as Qin Shu drew his sword.
Kang Yueran rolled her eyes in public, "Qin Shu, don't draw your sword all the time. I haven't fought for a long time. Can't you give me a chance?"
Chai Rong also complained, "I know martial arts, too, Qin Shu. You were the one who taught me, have you forgotten?"
Qin Shu gave Chai Rong a sidelong look and said, "Your tricks are just fancy moves, they're useless."
"Why are they useless? Even three or five young palace maids together can't beat me."
"That's because you're a princess!"
Princess? Butler Wang was so frightened that he looked at Xiao Liuzi and suddenly realized that Chai Rong was Princess Ronghua. He dropped to his knees and said, "I was blind. I will return and give the deed to the princess."
"It wasn't for me, it was for Miss Kang. So annoying!" She regretted it. Her brothers were not around, what a great opportunity. She should have ignored Qin Shu's attempts to stop her and stepped forward to help Xiaocheng and Dacheng beat the man.
Kang Yueran smiled and said, "Now that we've seen the excitement, let's go home!"
Xiao Liuzi came and informed King Xuan about this matter; with the addition of a favored princess and a county princess, the Zhang family wisely gave the land deed to Kang Yueran.
Kang Yueran has his own house and stays at home every day without going out.
