She is not a god and has no obligation to save everyone.
She would not be so arrogant as to regard herself as a savior.
"I'm not that stupid. Besides, I will keep this matter a secret and won't let anyone know!"
She didn't want to give anyone any cause for criticism.
Therefore, she had to hide her identity and abilities while saving so many people, which was extremely difficult.
Lu Changqing held her tightly in his arms.
If he could, he would take all the risks for his wife.
"Lime, if what you do is dangerous, can you let me go instead of you? I believe I can do a good job!"
Gu Qingning smiled and shook her head: "Don't worry, I'm the only one who can do this, but you don't have to worry, I will never put myself in danger!"
As she spoke, she opened the letter from the village.
Professor Wang wrote again.
"Qing Ning, how have you been lately? Our spring plowing has ended, and we've replanted the seeds. As you suggested, we've secretly changed the seeds again to ensure that this time the seeds can fully mature in early July and be successfully harvested and stored in the granary.
With last year's success, everyone is excited and eager to get started. This year looks like it will be another bumper harvest! Just as you said, we built a new granary and moved all the old granaries on the hillside back to the plains. After paying the public grain tax this year, we still have plenty of surplus. Even in the spring when there's a lean season, no family will go hungry. Qing Ning, the whole village is very grateful to you!"
With this assurance, Gu Qingning finally felt more relaxed.
Lu Changqing snatched the letter, took another look at it, and couldn't help but become even more excited.
"You can continue reading. There are a lot of good things written later!"
Gu Qingning continued reading with interest.
"There's another good news! I almost forgot to tell you. We've successfully promoted your seeds to the neighboring village. When they heard about our significant increase in yield, they were so envious that they immediately paid for seeds. Now they're planting these seeds, too. Several surrounding villages have also switched to these seeds. I believe our county's grain harvest this year will increase by at least 20%!"
Gu Qingning didn't expect to have an unexpected gain, so she naturally smiled with satisfaction.
However, it is still too little.
She must spread this seed nationwide.
Gu Qingning has an exchange space, so naturally there is an endless supply of seeds.
She would not buy seeds that were too outrageous, as this would definitely arouse suspicion. She only chose seeds that had high yield, disease resistance, were not easy to fall over, and had a shorter maturity time.
These seeds also have a very big advantage, which is that the source of seeds has always been controlled in her hands.
"Traditionally, villagers select the large, plump grains from last year's surplus grain to use as seeds for next year's crop. However, after three to five years, the yield of seeds like mine will gradually decrease, until they're almost as good as ordinary seeds. Therefore, if you want to grow this high-yielding rice, you have to buy seeds from me!"
Because it is still in the early stages of promotion, Gu Qingning naturally did not choose to charge.
However, the villagers sold the seeds and received the money, and naturally they did not forget Gu Qingning.
They first gave part of the money to Professor Wang, and then transferred part of the money to Gu Qingning.
Professor Wang even took out the vast majority of his own money and gave it all to Gu Qingning.
Gu Qingning counted and found that she had earned more than 500 yuan just from selling seeds.
This is just the revenue of a few villages, and this is when the village committees withheld at least 70% of the money.
In the future, she can make a lot of money just by selling seeds.
Lu Changqing didn't expect that there was such a way to make money, and couldn't help but praise her for being smart.
Gu Qingning smiled and said, "It can be said that money is everywhere. Everything can be used to make money. It all depends on whether you have the idea and the wisdom to do it."
Rice is planted much later in the north than in the south. Now it is almost time for spring plowing in the north, and she will also find a way to sell all the seeds in nearby places.
Moreover, this new batch of seeds is naturally a replacement batch with a shorter maturity period, which can ensure that all of them can be harvested by early July.
Gu Qingning would not sell the seeds herself.
Lu Changqing was very confused: "If you don't sell the seeds yourself, who do you want to buy them for you?"
Gu Qingning smiled and said, "Don't we have a very useful tool, Professor Wang?"
Lu Changqing was a little confused, then suddenly realized: "Professor Wang has been in Beijing for a long time, so he must have a lot of acquaintances. He is very sociable and naturally has a lot of connections. It seems that we can successfully sell the seeds by contacting these people!"
Gu Qingning turned the letter over and saw that the second page had a lot of names and some contact information written on it.
She knew that these people were very reliable, and she had explained her intentions when she wrote to Professor Wang last time.
As for making money, she must do it.
After Professor Wang learned about this, he understood her behavior very well: "You can make money, and everyone can achieve increased production and have enough food to eat. This is a win-win situation. Why shouldn't I recommend it to you?"
Of course, since he provided such a powerful intelligence network, Gu Qingning would definitely give him some dividends.
Professor Wang knew that since he had provided benefits, there was no need for him to pretend to be noble.
He was very happy to accept the introduction fee and commission given by Gu Qingning.
Gu Qingning had actually started planning this matter since last year's harvest.
She has taken the lead in contacting a group of people. This is the second group of people. All of them were introduced by Professor Wang. They are very reliable people, and many of them are his students.
Lu Changqing said: "But even so, there is no guarantee that all your seeds will be sold!"
Gu Qingning smiled and said, "Then why do you think we farmed in the village last year? Isn't this a living example?"
As she spoke, she took out a report.
Last year's huge increase in grain production was naturally reported in the news. Many surrounding counties and even the neighboring province knew about it.
The army of people buying seeds is still expanding.
Gu Qingning said, "This time, I'm going to make a killing from him!"
[Ah, it feels like I've been writing for a long time. I have a team building tomorrow, so I really want to take a leave to update the novel. Who understands the despair of social anxiety? ]
