Chapter 58 New Partners
"Let me tell you, I admire those who can serve the country and the people. I have always longed for those heroes who can fight on the battlefield! When I was a child, my grandfather often told me those heroic stories. At that time, I just wanted to be able to go to the battlefield in the future!"
Xie Ying began to tell Wei Ruo about her ideals.
Xie Ying then flattened her mouth and said with regret and helplessness: "It's a pity that I am a girl. When I grew up, I realized that there are many things that girls are not allowed to do, let alone go to the battlefield. Every door has a lot of rules."
Wei Ruo burst out laughing. This eldest lady of the Xie family is really interesting. She is indeed different from ordinary boudoir girls!
"Why are you laughing?" Xie Ying asked.
"I'm not mocking, I'm surprised! I agree with you. If I want to cultivate the land in the south of the city, I have to get my parents' permission, otherwise I can't go out easily. Even if my parents agree, I still have to go out every time. Take your aunt at home with you."
"But you still did a great job. I heard my mother say that after your move is successful, you can help the people in the city and allow more people to eat. Credit and guard The soldiers who defend the country at the border are all the same!"
Xie Ying admires such people the most!
"If you like, you can also participate." Wei Ruo suggested.
"Can I do it too?" Xie Ying asked suspiciously.
"Of course you can. There is still a lot of open space in the south of the city where you can grow things." "
But isn't the wasteland in the south of the city mainly cultivated by farmers without land?" Xie Ying asked.
“Most of the wasteland in the south of the city has been given to landless farmers and unemployed fishermen, but because their farming costs are very limited, they are given places with better terrain, close to official roads or water sources, or relatively flat terrain. Places with complex terrain have not been allocated."
"Can crops be grown in places with complex terrain?" Xie Ying asked.
"Yes, but it is not suitable for growing crops like rice. The labor and maintenance costs are too high. We can grow bamboo, fungi, various fruits, vegetables, and even medicinal materials." Wei Ruo looked in front of him and listened
. Xie Ying, who must be serious, has already brewed an idea in her mind.
Wei Ruo continued to say to Xie Ying, "If you are really interested, we can form a partnership."
"Partnership?" Xie Ying looked at Wei Ruo curiously.
"You are not good at farming, and although I am good at doing this, my freedom and time in the Wei family are limited, and the people I can dispatch are also limited. If we cooperate, we can learn from each other's strengths. We will earn money according to the How about the proportion of effort?"
"Although I don't like growing things, I think what you said is quite interesting!" Xie Ying was very interested.
Xie Ying grew up being pampered by her grandparents and parents. She had no shortage of money to spend on weekdays, but she was full of novelties about how she made money.
Especially now that she has a different view on planting.
"Then what do you think we should plant?" Xie Ying asked.
"You can grow some medicinal materials. Because of the war, medicinal materials are consumed a lot. The price of medicinal materials in the city has always been high. We can make money by growing medicinal materials and selling them. If the army needs it, we can provide it to the army at cost price to ensure that the army There will be no shortage of life-saving medicine." Wei Ruo suggested.
"That's great! You can make money and help the soldiers!" Xie Ying became more interested and even eager to try.
"If you agree, you will not only have to talk to the county government, but also send people to work in the fields. There will be a lot of things to do." Wei Ruo reminded.
"What do you need to say? I'm not joking with you! I, Xie Ying, will do it big if I want to do it! Just wait, I will talk to my mother in a moment! If my mother doesn't agree, I will Write a letter to tell my grandfather!" Xie Ying replied domineeringly. Xie Ying is serious.
"In addition, I have another condition. When we do these things together, you need to keep it secret for me. You can't tell it to outsiders, nor can you tell anyone in my family." Wei Ruo said.
"Why? I won't tell outsiders, why can't your own family members do the same?" Xie Ying asked doubtfully.
"What if my family knows about it and my sister also wants to get involved?" Wei Ruo asked.
"No, I don't like her. She is too troublesome. She seems to fall down if the wind blows. She always looks at me with a very weak look. I just ignored her before, and she looked aggrieved as if I had beaten her. It's like a meal." Xie Ying decisively refused.
"But once people know it, and my family gives me an order, I won't be able to refuse." Wei Ruo continued to explain.
"It's better to keep it a secret. It's a secret. It has a sense of mystery. When I tell my mother later, I will ask her to keep it a secret for us!" Xie Ying said.
"Well, you first get the consent of your family, and then we will discuss how to proceed." Wei Ruo said.
There are many benefits to Wei Ruo from cooperating with Xie Ying. First, Xie Ying’s temperament is to her liking; second, Xie Ying has the background and ability to meet the conditions for being her partner; third, also The most important thing is that she can avoid the Wei family.
Previously, the development of the wasteland in the south of the city required a government background, so she had to get in touch with the government through the Wei family.
Now she can reclaim a piece of land through Xie Ying, bypassing the Wei family, and can also increase herself an additional income.
Xie Ying is usually lazy. Once she encounters something she wants to do, she doesn't like to procrastinate. During her lunch break, she went to Mrs. Xie to express her thoughts.
Mrs. Xie thinks this is a good thing. The achievements made by the eldest daughter of the Wei family are obvious to all. It is beneficial for her daughter to do meaningful things with the eldest daughter of the Wei family.
And this matter is not a big deal to the Xie family. She doesn't even need to take money from the Xie family. She can just take some money from her own dowry to buy for her daughter.
Seeing that Mrs. Xie agreed, Xie Ying was very happy.
"Thank you, mother!" Xie Ying hugged Mrs. Xie and kissed her on the cheek.
"You little little monkey, my mother told you that since you want to do something, you must learn how to work hard like the eldest lady of the Wei family and achieve great results. Don't run away half-finished." Mrs. Xie warned.
Mrs. Xie doesn't feel sorry for Yinzi, she just hopes that her daughter can develop good habits.
"Mom, don't worry. When have I ever run away from battle? I despise the behavior of running away from battle the most!" "
You also said that you didn't run away from battle. Last year in the capital, I took you to go on a flower boat ride. When I left, You lied and lied about having a stomachache and refused to go." Mrs. Xie exposed it.
"Then... that's different..."
"Okay, okay, this time my mother chooses to believe you. Also, your brother will come to Xingshan County in a few days, and you can let him know if you have anything to do then. Let me help you get it." Mrs. Xie said with a smile.
