Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Feng asked in confusion, "How do you sell these fruits and flowers?"
"Don't worry about this, County Magistrate. I have already made some preparations. When the time comes and I need you to help me, just provide me with some conveniences. Of course, I won't let you do anything that is treasonous or life-threatening.
"When the time comes, I'll build workshops in each town based on their conditions. Women and their husbands can stay in the workshops to work, while the men will be responsible for selling the goods outside. We won't have to worry about not being able to make money." Chen Chen said confidently.
Seeing that Chen Zhen was so confident, County Magistrate Feng did not ask any more questions, even though he did not know what he was up to. He would know the answer after Chen Zhen did it.
After County Magistrate Feng chatted with He Jinshu and the others for a while, he had a meal at He's house before returning to the county town. He hadn't eaten the food cooked by Chen Chen for a long time, and he was really craving for it.
The next day after seeing off the county magistrate, not long after breakfast, Chen Chen and He Jinshu took their two sons to the room to change their diapers.
These two brats defecated right after they finished their meal, and the smell was so horrible.
After changing the urine ring, Chen Chen discussed with He Jinshu: "Ah Shu, can you watch over them today?"
"What are you going to do?" He Jinshu looked at him and asked calmly.
Chen Zhen felt guilty for a moment after hearing this, but he still made up his mind and said, "I'll go to the mountain to pick some good things, and then come back to make something delicious for you to eat. How about that?"
The Juren examination is still three years away, so He Jinshu is not in a hurry to study now. He can stay at home to take care of the children so that he can go for a walk in the mountains. It is autumn now, and there should be a lot of wild honey in the mountains. The location is relatively remote, so he wants to go and pick some himself.
He Jinshu calmly said after hearing this, "You want to abandon the three of us?"
"I didn't abandon you," Chen Chen explained immediately after hearing this. "Can I just be gone for one day? No, three hours will be enough. I'll pick some wild honey and make desserts and drinks for you!"
He Jinshu did not respond to Chen Chen's words, but said to He Sixuan in his arms with resentment: "Your father wants to abandon us and fly away alone."
Upon hearing this, Chen Chen immediately retorted speechlessly: "Ashu, what nonsense are you talking about? When did I abandon you?"
He Sixuan in He Jinshu's arms didn't know whether she understood what He Jinshu said or realized that the atmosphere between the two of them was wrong. She immediately pouted and tears were about to fall.
He cried with a pout and reached out for Chen Zhen to hug him.
He Sixuan in Chen Zhen's arms saw that his brother was unhappy, so he became unhappy too. His mouth pursed and pearls were about to fall out.
Seeing this, Chen Chen begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, can't I just not go?"
But even if he said this, it didn't work. He Sixuan still wanted Chen Zhen to hold him, fearing that Chen Zhen would really abandon him.
In the end, Chen Zhen had no choice but to give He Siyi to He Jinshu, and then he held He Sixuan in his arms.
Not only did he hold her in his arms, He Sixuan also held Chen Zhen's collar tightly with his hands for a long time without letting go.
Seeing this, Chen Chen said, "Don't listen to your father's nonsense. How could I abandon you? I will take you with me wherever I go from now on, okay?"
Chen Zhen coaxed He Sixuan for a long time before he finally calmed down. Although he no longer had to hold his collar tightly, he became even more attached to him. Except for sleeping that day, he kept asking Chen Zhen to hold him. He even refused to be held by Grandpa He and Grandma He.
Seeing this, Grandma He asked curiously, "What's wrong with Xuan'er today?"
He Jinshu felt a little guilty after hearing this and did not respond. He did not expect that his words could be so destructive.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhen said, "It's okay, he's just having a little temper. He should be fine tomorrow."
After hearing this, Grandma He didn't ask any more questions. It was normal for children to have quick changes in temper. Maybe it was really like Chen Zhen said, and he would be fine tomorrow.
After coaxing the two babies to sleep at night, Chen Chen hugged He Jinshu and said, "Ah Shu, I helped you cover up today. Do you want to compensate me?"
"Then isn't this also caused by you?" He Jinshu said stubbornly.
"Then you can't say you're abandoning you. Look, Sixuan is sad." Chen Chen retorted.
"I was just joking," He Jinshu explained, "I didn't expect Sixuan to react so strongly."
"Then I don't care. Anyway, these words were caused by you, so you have to compensate me." Chen Chen said unhappily.
"How do you want to make amends?"
"Just the same as last time."
"Okay then, I'll come first and you can come later."
After saying this, He Jinshu took an advantageous position.
Chen Zhen couldn't pick the honey on the mountain, so the next day he found Li Mo and asked him to help pick some honey, and promised to make him something delicious when he came back.
After getting the honey back, Chen Chen used it to make some honey roast chicken, honey fried chicken, honey cakes, honey bread and other snacks.
Not only do adults like to eat it, but even the two sons are extremely greedy when they smell it.
Seeing this, Chen Chen fed them some cakes. He made two kinds of cakes, one for adults, and the other with goat's milk and a little honey, which was then steamed. It had a soft and sticky texture, making it very suitable for children without teeth, and there was no need to worry about them choking.
The days that followed were uneventful, and soon it was time for the autumn harvest. This year, the yield of Wujia Village was still very impressive, with an output of over 600 kilograms per mu, and the highest yield per mu was over 780 kilograms.
Shenjia Village was the same as Wujia Village, except that the highest yield per acre was 812 kilograms, and Shenjia's acre still yielded the highest yield.
This success undoubtedly made the two villagers very happy and also made other villagers envious.
However, although the other villages were envious, they were also very happy. Although the fertilizer was applied a little late this year and the fertilizer was not particularly sufficient, it was still much better than not applying fertilizer at all before.
The per-mu yield of other villagers is basically more than 500 kilograms. Although the highest is only 560 kilograms, it is almost 160 kilograms higher than in previous years. This is enough to make the people happy for a long time, and they all thank He Jinshu for his great kindness.
County Magistrate Feng was naturally very happy after hearing the number reported by his subordinates. In terms of grain production alone this year, their Linshe County would definitely become the county with the largest increase in grain production in Dongli State.
For a county magistrate like him, these are all real achievements! If things continue like this, promotion and wealth will no longer be a dream for him.
But I still have to thank John Hoffman for all this. Without him, I probably wouldn't have this luck.
