Chapter 43 Departure



The second brother must find it, and King Yu must also be beaten, but the most important thing is that Gu Yan hurriedly said that King Yu is also very rich.

Jiang Zhen was still reveling in the joy of achieving a yield of 3,000 catties per mu. He paced back and forth, discussing his plans. "Apart from the 500 catties I'll pay you back, and the 300 catties from the other four families, I'll still have about 11,000 catties left!"

Eleven thousand kilograms, at least ten thousand kilograms can be saved for seeds. It was the first time to plant, and several families took extra care of the potatoes, and they grew big and complete.

Ten thousand jin can be used to plant more than 30 acres next year. When these 30 acres are ripe, there will be countless potatoes.

Jiang Zhen felt excited just thinking about it.

"When the time comes, we will defeat Daye and let every household grow sweet potatoes again!" Song Wan clenched his fist in agreement.

Jiang Zhen, who was extremely excited, was suddenly shocked when he heard her words, "Miss Song, now is not a good time to start a war!"

The potatoes had just been planted, the treasury was empty, military supplies were insufficient, and the court was short of soldiers and generals. It was only in the past ten years that the soldiers and civilians in the southwest and northwest were strong enough to deceive Daye and the Qiang people. If an army was launched at this time, the weakness of Dai Viet could no longer be concealed.

"I didn't say I'd go now."

"That's good, that's good." Jiang Zhen felt relieved. He looked around and asked, "By the way, where's the general?"

"Oh, he's helping me pack my luggage." Song Wan pointed in the direction of her room.

Jiang Zhen's eyes widened. He must have heard correctly! The general was actually packing Miss Song's luggage!

No, why would I pack my luggage for no reason?

Facing the bearded man's doubts, Song Wan explained, "We plan to go out and look for my second brother."

She didn't say she was going to Yuzhou to beat up or rob people, for fear of scaring the bearded man.

"Then where are you going to look for them?" Jiang Zhen had also heard what Wang Shi said that day. It was previously said that the two brothers of the Song family died in the battlefield and not even their bodies were found.

It's a good thing that one of them is probably still alive today.

"Let's look to the south first." Song Wan said vaguely.

Jiang Zhen had no doubts, "Is there anything I can do?"

At the very least, he is still a general of a city.

"After I leave, please help me keep an eye on the silver and don't lose it." If possible, Song Wan really wanted to take them all with her.

Jiang Zhen twitched his lips, "Don't worry, Miss Song, I will definitely help you take good care of those gold, silver and jewelry."

Song Wan was still quite confident in him.

There was a bumper potato harvest, and Jiang Zhen was very happy. With a wave of his hand, he peeled all the remaining potatoes that could not be kept for seeds and made a grand potato banquet, distributing a lot to each village.

Potatoes stewed with meat, less meat and more potatoes, but it is still more sumptuous than what the villagers eat during the New Year.

The potatoes soaked in broth also tasted like meat, and Gou Wa and his friends even thought that potatoes were meat.

Song Wan ate the same thing as them, but she also had an extra serving of fried potato chips, which she learned to make from Gu Yanji and Qi Shi.

Of course, the taste is not as good as the ones made by Qi herself, but it’s okay, except that it’s a bit mushy.

Song Wan remembered that this had to be dipped in ketchup, but unfortunately there were no tomatoes here, so she couldn't make ketchup.

It would be nice if there were tomatoes. I heard in a book that tomatoes are a product of foreign countries. Are there any foreign countries here?

Song Wan searched the original owner's memory and did not find the word "foreign country".

Yao Lixuan, Li Hu and the other four also received a bowl of stewed potatoes with meat, but it wasn't much, just two pieces per person.

Others who came later still ate coarse flour buns. After they had finished the fried radish, the radish stems were still there.

When he tasted the long-lost flavor again, Yao Liwei finally knew what he had eaten last time.

He also heard the cheers and celebrations in the village.

After finishing the few pieces, Yao Liwei approached Li Hu and was about to speak, but he saw that the other party quickly covered the bowl in front of him without leaving any gap.

Yao Liyun: "...Can you be more promising?"

Seeing that he was not trying to steal the food, Li Hu continued to eat. As for what he called "prosperity", what was that? Could he eat it?

The potatoes were cut into large pieces, each piece could be eaten in several bites, and Li Hu ate them in smaller pieces than meat.

"What's the matter?" Li Hu quickly finished the last bite of potato and touched his abdominal muscles that were gradually disappearing.

"You said that this potato can produce 1,000 kilograms per mu. Does that mean we can eat it often in the future?" Yao Li said boldly.

Li Hu glanced at him, burped, and said, "If you don't want to chew on radish leaves like your father, you'd better give up this idea."

Yao Liyun was not very willing to accept it. “What if?”

Li Hu stood up and walked around, feeling a little full from eating too much. "We're really benefiting from this village today. They don't mind us being outsiders, so they gave us a few potatoes. Tomorrow, when they calm down, they might regret giving us potatoes tonight."

Yao Liyun: "..."

Can't he just have a sweet dream?

After the potato banquet, the trip to Yuzhou was put on the agenda.

This time, Song Wan only brought Song Qi with her. She left the others in Guizhou to protect their families.

Gu Yanji brought Gu Wu and Qi Fu with him.

"Why did you bring a traitor like me along?" Song Wan looked at the extra horse and the person on it in confusion.

Every time Qi Wu heard her call him a traitor, he felt short of breath and chest tightness, "Why can't I go?"

Song Wan raised an eyebrow. "Isn't the reason obvious? You're so weak, and you'll still need my protection as your master."

"Don't worry, if I encounter danger, I will definitely run away at the first opportunity. I won't let the enemy catch me easily and embarrass you."

"I wasn't the one who was arrested, why should I lose face?" Song Wan looked at him and said, "Just save your own face."

"I heard there's a kind of sorcery in this world. Some hidden weirdos specifically capture androgynous young men like you, then peel off your pretty face and rape it." Song Wan said seriously, "So, you must save your face and don't lose it."

Qi Fu was short of breath, turned his head away and stopped talking.

Seeing how unamused he was, Song Wan turned away, intending to go to Gu Yan to complain urgently, "Look at me, a rebellious disciple. I'm not young anymore, but I just like to do things that disobey my master."

Gu Yanji felt like a patriarch at this moment, as if his two children at home needed him to mediate whenever they had conflicts and quarrels.

"Qi Fu came along this time because he had something to do personally." Gu Yan hurriedly held her hand and explained softly, "The Qi family's business can't be messed up. He needs to show up."

When A Yu succeeds to the throne in the future, he may still need the help of his uncle Qi Fu.

Not only was Gu Yan anxious, Song Wan almost forgot that her apprentice was a rich second-generation who inherited tens of millions of dollars.

Thinking of this, Song Wan looked at Qi Fu and immediately felt favorable towards him. This was a good disciple and he really had good taste.

"Ahem, Master thinks a team of five is just right." Song Wan said without blinking.

Qi Fu: "..."

His disciple is not as attractive as gold and silver, right?

The author has something to say:
