Chapter 259 Winter Wheat Harvest
A few days ago, she promised Xu Zhengyong to prepare medicinal materials for him, but in fact, except for the medicine produced in the medicinal field she and Xie Yingying ran together in Xingshan County, no other medicinal materials were available.
The medicine field she and Xie Yingying managed together only planted four relatively scarce basic medicinal materials for wound medicine, and they were relatively easy to grow.
Xiumei nodded: "That's what the well guard said, and he also said that some medicine has been stored for the lady over there." "
Great!" Wei Ruo couldn't hide her joy.
Xiumei was also very happy: "The second young master is really considerate. Even if he is not in Taizhou Mansion, he seems to have a tact with the young lady and can think of the young lady's difficulties and help the young lady solve her urgent needs." Wei Ruo thought for a while and said: "You can ask later
. Ask the well guard if you can help me bring a message to my second brother."
"Well, I'll go find the well guard right now!"
Xiumei ran out immediately without waiting for the next time.
Wei Ruo then sat at the desk, picked up the pen, and began to think about the reply to Wei Jinyi.
Xiumei came back after a while, bringing back Jing Hu's reply: "Guard Guard Jing said that he can give you a reply, but I'm not sure when it will be delivered to the second young master." "It's good if I can bring it to you."
Wei
Ruo There's nothing urgent, no need to ask how quickly it can be delivered.
So Wei Ruo sat in front of the desk and wrote for a while. Naturally, she would not be stingy with pen and ink like Wei Jinyi, and she wrote three pages in a short time.
Most of them talked about trivial things. He told Wei Jinyi everything that happened recently, except for the slap he received, which Wei Ruo didn't want Wei Jinyi to know.
Wei Ruo put the written letter in an envelope and asked Xiumei to take it to Jing Hu.

The winter wheat planted by Wei Ruo in Zhuangzi in Fucheng was a few days later than the winter wheat in Xingshan County, so the harvest time was also later.
The harvest has begun, and everyone in the village is busy.
For several days in a row, everyone got up early and went into the dark, and the few barns that were originally empty were soon filled with wheat.
The happiness of harvest overflows everyone in Zhuangzi.
Wei Ruo was naturally very happy, she liked the feeling of filling the warehouse with food.
No matter how the rice production is this year, with this wave of wheat harvest, Wei Ruo's Zhuangzi can ensure that there will be no shortage of food at the end of the year.
Manager Yu reported to Wei Ruo very excitedly: "Miss, our wheat yield per mu has reached one thousand kilograms! I can't believe this is true! One mu of field can actually harvest one thousand kilograms of wheat!" In previous years
! Although their farm mainly grows rice, they also set aside a small part of the land to grow a little wheat. The wheat yield is mostly about three to five hundred catties per mu. If one mu of land can reach five hundred catties, then It was already a great harvest.
But now the yield per mu has actually reached one thousand kilograms! This made everyone in Zhuangzi dumbfounded.
In fact, before harvesting, when everyone looked at the plump and large ears of wheat, they already had a premonition that this year's wheat harvest would be very good, but no one expected that the yield per mu would reach one thousand kilograms.
Wei Ruoxiao smiled: "The wheat seeds used are better. They have been carefully cultivated and improved. The yield is indeed better than what everyone has grown before." These are
wheat seeds produced in her space, and the quality is naturally not native. There are wheat varieties that can compare.
Manager Yu couldn't help but be excited and happy: "Miss, if this situation develops, even if the weather is still as unfavorable as in previous years, our Zhuangzi will not have to worry about food! We can also make a lot of money!" "Have harvested all these wheats
. , we won’t sell it outside for the time being." Wei Ruo warned.
"Don't worry, Miss. Without your words, we will not touch the food in the village." Manager Yu assured. Wei Ruo nodded.
"Also, as soon as the wheat is harvested, we will arrange for people to plow the land, topdress fertilizer, and transplant the seedlings we have grown into the paddy fields." Wei Ruodao.
"Don't worry, Miss. I've already given instructions on this matter. I won't miss the time to plant rice."
Manager Yu's work makes Wei Ruo feel at ease. Even if Wei Ruo doesn't give instructions for some things, Manager Yu knows how to tell his subordinates. people to do it.
Wei Ruo and Manager Yu were talking when a servant came to report that Boss Fan from Zuixianju came.
"He himself is here?" Wei Ruo asked.
"Yes, Mr. Fan is right outside the door." the servant replied.
Wei Ruo was slightly suspicious. Fan Chengxu usually sent someone to invite Wei Ruo to Zuixianju if he wanted to see him. Why did he come in person today?
After thinking for a moment, Wei Ruo said, "Invite people in."
"Yes."
With Wei Ruo's approval, the servant went outside and invited Fan Chengxu in.
Wei Ruo received Fan Chengxu in the courtyard: "Boss Fan, my place is simple, so I have to ask you to meet me in this courtyard." After saying that, Wei Ruo
invited Fan Chengxu to sit down at the stone table and poured him a glass of wine. Freshly brewed tea.
"I think Mr. Xu's place is not shabby, but very elegant." Fan Chengxu said.
"It can't be compared with Boss Fan's Zuixianju." Wei Ruo replied.
"I have heard that Mr. Xu's wheat harvest in Zhuangzi has been bumper, and the yield per mu is extremely high." Fan Chengxu said.
Wei Ruoxiao: "Boss Fan, you are too well-informed, aren't you? I just found out about the yield per mu on my farm, how come you already know it?" "I don't know the specific figures, just the ones nearby
. The common people are spreading the word that the wheat harvested in your village is piled into hills, which is much higher than the output of ordinary people." Fan Chengxu said.
Wei Ruo smiled and agreed.
After all, this matter is obvious to everyone and cannot be concealed. Besides, there is nothing to hide.
The smile on Fan Chengxu's face grew stronger: "Mr. Xu, I wonder how you have considered the matter I proposed last time?"
I don't know whether he couldn't wait any longer, or because he was more convinced that Wei Ruo had the ability to help improve his tea garden after learning about the winter wheat harvest at Wei Ruo's village. Fan Chengxu personally came to Wei Ruo's village to inquire about the matter.
"There's been a lot going on lately, so I haven't thought about it too much," Wei Ruo replied.
"Then why not think about it carefully now." Fan Chengxu said with a smile.
"This matter is rather complicated. I'm afraid I can't think clearly at this moment." Wei Ruodao.
"How about a complicated method?" Fan Chengxu asked.
"Tea involves a wide range of factors, and there are many factors that affect the taste of tea. In addition to the variety of tea, the environment in which it grows, the climate of the year, and the time of picking, there is also the way the tea is processed afterwards. , the baking process and storage conditions will all be affected. Boss Fan only said that he wanted to ask me for help and cooperate with me, but he didn’t know which aspect of cooperation he was talking about?" Wei Ruo asked.
