Chapter 33 Planning for the Future
Although He Lianjun was a butcher hunter on the surface, he was actually very shrewd in his heart. He naturally did not believe Yu Qingzhi's rhetoric, but he just smiled and said nothing and did not interfere. There was a certain balance between the two that he did not want to break just yet.
"Mrs. He, please forgive Gu's poor eyesight. It seems that I have never seen these kinds of grain seeds before?" Gu Yuanyou held a few seeds given by Yu Qingzhi in his hand and looked at them for a long time before slowly raising his question.
Yu Qingzhi smiled awkwardly and said: "Master Gu has good eyesight, this is indeed not a local food seed..."
Scholars are the most serious people. Yu Qingzhi learned the lesson this time. She might not be able to cope with it if she didn't explain it clearly at the moment. Her mind turned quickly, "That's right. At that time, the man actually said it, saying that it is actually a kind of vegetable seed.
The name is water radish. It’s probably some kind of foreign species, so we’ve never seen it before.”
"So that's it. These water radish seeds are really rare. With the quality of the seeds, Gu can tell that they are fine seeds. All the seeds are plump." Gu Yuanyou said happily.
"That's good." Zhu Tianci laughed, patted Gu Yuanyou twice, and said with admiration, "Brother Gu is really the one who takes care of things, and you, the county magistrate, must be honest. Tell me, you need
How many of these water radish seeds are there? Hundreds to thousands of kilograms, or thousands to tens of thousands of kilograms? Doesn’t that man just like antiques? Let’s go and get them for him in exchange.”
Gu Yuanyou stared at Yu Qingzhi closely and asked, "How many more of these do Mrs. He have?"
How much more? Yu Qingzhi was dumbfounded when she heard what Zhu Tianci said just now. She was careless.
Yes, there are too few seeds available!
If you want to plant it in a large area and promote it vigorously, dozens or hundreds of grains will not be able to solve the problem.
As Zhu Tianci said, if tens of thousands of kilograms of seeds are needed, how many antiques will need to be exchanged to the system? Moreover, why would Zhu Tianci use all his own treasures to contribute in vain!
Even if someone is willing to take it out, so many seeds are born out of thin air. How can it not cause a sensation in the big-ass Luming County?
Moreover, she kept saying "that person". When the time comes, even if He Lianjun doesn't ask, Zhu Tianci doesn't ask? Gu Yuanyou doesn't ask? People's curiosity is irresistible.
Furthermore, even if they don’t ask, how easy would it be for a businessman who has traveled all over the world and a current county magistrate to check up on a stranger in Luming County?
"Hiss~" Thinking this, Yu Qingzhi sighed unconsciously and thought to herself.
"Actually, Qingzhi doesn't have much in her hands now. She doesn't have any treasures, but she got some from that person and divided it into three parts. Two parts were given to others for trial planting. I also have one part here."
Seeing that Yu Qingzhi was deep in thought, He Lianjun came to her rescue and said, "Let me tell you, we can't be too impatient yet. Take everything slowly."
"Lian Jun is right."
Hearing what He Lianjun said, Yu Qingzhi nodded heavily. She already had an idea, "I was a little impatient and careless. I only have a dozen seeds in my hand now. These few seeds are not enough for the entire Luming County."
It’s not even a drop in the bucket. If you go to that person to exchange for a large amount, it’s unreasonable to ask Brother Zhu to give out too many ancient items for nothing..."
"As long as it's not too much, it doesn't matter. Help sister-in-law, brother Gu, or eldest brother. In the end, it's all the same." Zhu Tianci chuckled twice, raised his eyebrows, and looked at He Lianjun.
The latter didn't take it seriously and ignored him.
Suddenly, Zhu Tianci seemed to remember something again, and then added: "But having said that, my money will have a big use in the future, so I really can't use it in large quantities to exchange for a radish seed now."
After hearing his words, Gu Yuanyou also woke up from a dream, slapped his forehead, and blamed himself again and again, "I blame me, I almost forgot about the business."
Both of them looked at He Lianjun with expressions of regret and intriguing.
Looking at the state of the three people, Yu Qingzhi's doubts were aroused again.
However, He Lianjun didn't ask where the water radish seeds came from, so she couldn't open her mouth, so she continued the topic: "I was about to say something just now, but was interrupted by Brother Zhu. Exchange a vegetable in large quantities.
Seeds are unrealistic and not worthwhile. So I think it’s not too late for us to try planting them ourselves first, then harvest the seeds and then gradually promote them.”
"If there is a chance, we can ask that person to exchange for some major food seeds. After all, for the people of Luming County, being able to eat well is much more important than eating well."
The three grown men all expressed support for her idea, and they briefly chatted about related matters before going back in two separate ways.
On the way home, Yu Qingzhi remained silent, as if she was worried.
He Lianjun asked: "What's wrong? Is there something on your mind?"
"Well, that's not really true. Just think about it, will you need a lot of silver in the future?" Yu Qingzhi tried to speak.
He Lianjun was slightly startled, "Why do you ask? But - who doesn't need those black and white things?"
Yes, it's like asking in vain.
Yu Qingzhi was not annoyed and chuckled twice, "That's right. Originally, I planned to give those seeds to the people for free, but now I suddenly changed my mind. How about opening a store specializing in crop seeds to sell seeds in the future. In this way,
The seeds can be promoted and we can increase our income."
He Lianjun stopped and looked at Yu Qingzhi carefully without saying a word.
How could he not know Yu Qingzhi's intention?
She wanted to help him save money.
You don't even ask him what he will do with his money in the future, but you have to help him save money!
This trust gave He Lianjun the urge to tell her everything, and he almost blurted it out, but he swallowed it back. Things in the future were going to be difficult and dangerous, so why let her worry in vain.
"What's wrong? I haven't spoken for a long time. Is my face stained?" Yu Qingzhi deliberately teased him and wiped his face with his hands seriously.
He Lianjun chuckled and gently scratched her delicate little nose with his hand, "There are flowers here."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Seeing He Lianjun and Yu Qingzhi entering the door with smiles, He Wanyue and He Lancheng's hanging hearts finally dropped.
"Brother, how's it going? Have the gangsters from the Yu family returned our things?" He Lancheng asked impatiently.
"It has been returned." He Lianjun saw that there were still tears on He Lancheng's face, and stretched out his hand to wipe it for him, and also scratched his nose, "Lancheng doesn't have to worry."
"Huh?" He Lancheng looked at He Lianjun with a confused expression, his expression was very strange.
What's wrong with the eldest brother? Although the eldest brother was not very strict with them in the past, he had never teased him like this. After all, the eldest brother was burdened with too many and heavy things. Even though he was young, he knew more or less.
But now, why does this eldest brother suddenly seem to be a different person?
The way He Lancheng's little head swayed from left to right made Yu Qingzhi laugh. She patted He Lianjun casually, then hugged Lan Cheng over and held his little face, and said with a smile: "Your brother doesn't know what kind of slap he is.
Crazy, I suddenly like to scratch other people’s noses.”
"Sister-in-law, so you are also scratched on the nose by your elder brother?" The words came out of the child's mouth as he thought.
This time, Yu Qingzhi was asked a question with a red face, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.
He Wanyue walked over with a smile and hurriedly came to the rescue, "Seeing you two coming back with smiles, I knew it was good news. You don't know that you have been gone for so long, which makes us, Lan Cheng, afraid that you will be bullied.
I had to rush over to help. I had to do a deadlift to barely hold it."
"Also, brother, where are the returned things?" Looking at the oil paper bag in He Lianjun's hand, it didn't look like his own things.
"The things are still at the county government office. I'll pick them up tomorrow. Your sister-in-law bought these specially for you to eat ribs for today's event. She said she wanted to calm down the two of you and celebrate the bad guys.
Finally punished." He Lianjun raised the oil paper bag in his hand and shook it at He Lancheng.
"Ribs?!"
Sure enough, when He Lancheng heard this, he broke away from Yu Qingzhi's arms, his eyes widened, and his saliva almost flowed down, "Sister-in-law is really great. Since she came, she has not only done a good job like a pig in water
It’s so delicious that you can even eat pork ribs now. Oh my God, it’s been so long since I’ve eaten pork ribs, I don’t even remember what it tastes like.”
"You call braised pork a heavenly delicacy. I don't know how you are going to describe sweet and sour steak -" Yu Qingzhi was amused by his appearance and laughed, but mid-sentence, she suddenly realized something, "Lan Cheng eats it."
Over ribs?”
Ordinarily, the He family's family background was like that in the past. Even if He Lianjun helped others kill pigs and sheep, what others gave him was just some undesirable waste.
The occasional prey he brought back only provided enough food and clothing, and the rest went to the market to exchange money to buy medicine for He Wanyue's illness.
In this case, it is really puzzling that He Lancheng said that he had eaten pork ribs.
When she asked, He Wanyue and He Lancheng looked obviously panicked, and both looked at He Lianjun for help.
"It was from a wild boar that was caught during a hunting trip. Only that time, only a little bit was left. He was young at that time and was so hungry that he was all skin and bones, so I replenished it for him." He Lianjun's expression remained unchanged.
He Wanyue and He Lancheng's eyes immediately shifted to Yu Qingzhi, and they both nodded, like chickens pecking at rice.
Yu Qingzhi smiled clearly, "I see. Well, let's see if the sweet and sour pork ribs I made today can remind Xiao Lancheng of the original taste. It's a little troublesome to make these ribs. Lian Jun, tell me what happened today.
Listen to them and tell them how those bad guys were punished. I will go to the kitchen to cook for us."
The three of them, brother and sister, need to talk alone, and she, Yu Qingzhi, also needs a separate space. After all, there are some things that need help from the system.
He Lianjun was deeply moved by Yu Qingzhi's considerateness, and he went to talk to Wanyue and Lan Cheng without showing it.
But Yu Qingzhi took the ribs to the kitchen, washed, blanched, and controlled the water. A series of actions followed smoothly.
She first stir-fried sugar to add color to the ribs, then poured in the sweet and sour sauce prepared in advance and stir-fried evenly, then added water, put in a lot of firewood and brought to a boil over high heat, and then slowly simmered over low heat.
.
While stewing the ribs, Yu Qingzhi asked the system about the exchange tax points for some crop seeds that were not available here, such as high-quality wheat, rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc., and secretly made a mental note.
Thinking that my current points are not enough for these things, I still need to find ways to find ancient objects to exchange them with the system. Just as I was thinking about it, I subconsciously touched a hard object on my body.
