"OK!"
Chen Xiaomai responded and quickly left.
Huang Dani said, "Xiaoyu, your makeup is a bit smudged, go wash it off."
Although Amu said there was no need to rush, he would take Lord Fang into the mountains.
But I think the sooner we finish the work in the fields, the sooner we can feel at ease.
"Come on, let's go into the cave!"
Seeing her determined expression, Chi Yu also thought that it would be good if the land could be prepared sooner.
He nodded immediately and led the people into the space.
While she went to wash her face and change her clothes, Huang Dani went to the other side of the river to clear land.
Qin Mu handed the basket in his hand to Shen Kai.
He was standing inside Fang Shizhong's room, and said in a low voice:
"My lord, I know you are busy and in a hurry to go down the mountain and return today."
However, given the current weather conditions, the most important things right now are water and food.
My subordinates have already sent men to find two springs with abundant water sources in the Beilian Mountains.
You'll need to go and see for yourself.
If there are no problems, I will have the people from Chijia'ao come and keep watch.
In addition, Xiaoyu told me that in a few days, she can show you sweet potatoes that are even more productive than potatoes.
My subordinate figured that it would be just the right time for us to return after we finished inspecting the water source.
Xiaoyu means that if you have seen the sweet potatoes and tasted them yourself, and confirmed that they are good, she can send a batch to the government office in a few days.
She didn't say the exact weight. Her subordinates estimated it to be no less than 300 jin (150 kg).
She grows her things very discreetly; her subordinates only harvested potatoes with her a few days ago.
"I've seen that yield with my own eyes; it's definitely no less than a thousand catties per mu."
Fang Shizhong came specifically for the sweet potatoes.
He was originally thinking about how to get Chi Yu to offer sweet potatoes today without hurting Qin Mu's feelings, since it was Chi Yu's wedding day.
Now that I hear that the donation is voluntary but it will take a few more days, I'm starting to consider it.
But then he remembered there were still a lot of things to do in the county town, and he hesitated again.
Especially the newly opened plant ash cement workshop.
He also hoped to make more money through this and alleviate some of the burden on government offices.
However, his hesitation didn't last long, only about ten seconds, before he said:
“That works too! I’ll write a letter, and you can have someone deliver it to Old Zheng.”
"Let him temporarily manage the affairs of the government office and the workshop for a few days."
"Okay, I'll have Ah Ye deliver it himself!"
"If you're worried, then let Ah Kai go."
"The boys from Chijia'ao are all good; it would be good to let them go and deliver the goods."
They should be shown what the county town looks like now, so they can understand the lives ordinary people lead.
As Fang Shizhong spoke, he couldn't help but ask another question:
"Amu, what do you think about the Chi family's innate good fortune?"
Was what she took out truly given to her by you, or is she really guided by a celestial being?
Qin Mu hadn't expected him to ask that, so he quickly thought for a moment and replied:
"My lord, Xiaoyu's good fortune is real, but whether there are immortals involved, I do not know."
Actually, I'm hoping for an immortal.
After all, he is an ordinary citizen in the county where you, as an official, serve.
If she truly has been blessed by a deity, it means that the deity is on your side, sir.
Besides, she's now his subordinate's wife!
Whether Fang Shizhong believed him or not, Qin Mu couldn't guess. He only knew that after a moment of contemplation, Fang Shizhong said:
"If there really is a celestial being behind the Chi family, that would be quite nice."
But you have to treat her well, ideally so that she can only have eyes for you.
