Jiang Yan knew that high-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes were all brought from overseas, and it should be easier to find seeds in coastal areas. So she didn't have much hope for what seeds Hu Shang could find in Yunzhou, but she didn't want to miss this opportunity.

I didn't expect to find chili seeds.

Think about it, in the Han Dynasty, cucumbers, grapes, and sesame seeds could be passed here on the Silk Road, and now it is normal for some other seeds to be transmitted. It's just not as well-known as the shipping side.

Jiang Yan felt that her trip was worth the trip when she arrived at the chili seeds.

She said boldly: "I want all these seeds, you can make a price." ”

Of course, if they slaughtered her as a fat sheep, she wouldn't be stupid enough to buy them all, it depends on whether these Hu businessmen are kind enough. The price is acceptable, and it doesn't matter if she buys them all.

She is the person brought by Xie Jingxing, although these Hu businessmen want to make a lot of money, but they will have to go to Yunzhou in the future, it is not good to go too far, and only pay the price of a bag of one or two silver.

This price is actually not low, after all, it is just a bag of seeds that can't see anything, I don't know if it's dead or alive, and it's difficult to sell it at a high price.

But the Hu merchants knew that these seeds were carefully selected, and they brought them all the way over, and they were too cheap to sell, and they were not happy. Fortunately, this thing does not occupy a place, and if it is sold, it will be earned, otherwise they would not want to bring this kind of goods with uncertain sales.

There are a total of twelve kinds of seeds here, which add up to twelve taels, and there is no need to use silver tickets, Jiang Yan's own fragments of silver are enough to pay, and she didn't make a counteroffer, so she paid directly.

After the two left the inn, Xie Jingxing asked her, "What did you fancy just now?" Originally, I was still interested in Xingshan, but suddenly I had to buy all the seeds. ”

Jiang Yan touched the seed bag and said annoyedly, "You can see it?" Those Hu businessmen must have seen it, do you think they are expensive at this price? ”

"They are the most observant of business, and they must see it, but the price is okay, if you really want to grow any strange flowers, a pot can be sold for a few taels of silver, and your dozen taels are not in vain."

Jiang Yan thought about the market of chili peppers and felt that what he said was right.

She smiled: "There are no strange flowers, but there are strange fruits." There is a kind of pepper in it, and the fruit taste is extremely spicy and stimulating, and dogwood pepper can't compare to these. Don't you like spicy food? This one is to your taste. ”

Xie Jingxing didn't believe that there was anything spicier than dogwood, but Jiang Yan was not a person who could tell lies, he said: "Then when it is planted, I will be the first to taste it." ”

"It must be the first time you taste it," Jiang Yan said with a smile, "There is no one to take care of the fields where I grow chili peppers, so I have to ask you to help me buy land and recruit people to grow chili peppers." ”

Xie Jingxing had thought of this a long time ago, Jiang Yan was rare to come out once a year in Jiafu, and it was unrealistic for her to manage the harvest in the field, and someone had to help her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have bought a shop back then, just because it was convenient to collect rent once a year.

Xie Jingxing said: "You don't need to buy it specifically, in the past two years, in order to grow sweet potatoes, I bought hundreds of acres of land near Yunzhou City, and I will leave you two acres." ”

Jiang Yan was also embarrassed to trouble him in vain, so she joked: "This time the two of us will cooperate, you will be the people, I will produce the chili pepper and the recipe, and then sell the chili pepper to all parts of the country." Let all the people of Daeyu eat our chili peppers. ”

Xie Jingxing didn't care how the business was. He said: "If Yunzhou can grow chili peppers, it can entrust the surrounding farmers to help, which can not only expand the scale of production, but also increase their income." ”

Jiang Yan smiled: "You are thinking too far, what I just said is playing, just this bag of pepper seeds, a few acres of land will take several years, if you want to expand the scale, I don't know when to wait." ”

Xie Jingxing was very confident and said, "You have more chili peppers than the two sweet potatoes I gave me at the beginning." In the past two years, sweet potatoes have also been planted on several acres of land. It's almost ready to go next year. As long as you have patience, the chili pepper will come sooner or later. ”

When he mentioned sweet potatoes, Jiang Yan remembered and said, "I thought you would offer sweet potatoes to the imperial court, but you are still here in Yunzhou." ”

Xie Jingxing asked her rhetorically, "Then why didn't you dedicate it to the imperial court in the first place?" ”

Jiang Yan rolled her eyes, "How can I give a little maid to the court?" There is no channel, not to mention the source, there is also a problem. ”

"I also have a problem with this source, and it can't be all good things that come to me." Xie Jingxing said with a smile: "Besides, the last time I planted cowpox, I have already stained your light." You can't take the credit away from you this time. ”

Jiang Yan said indifferently: "Anyway, I can't get this credit, so I might as well give it to you." If the court rewards you with silver, you can give me some more. ”

Xie Jingxing said: "Besides, now sweet potatoes are not enough even here in Yunzhou." Even if it is dedicated to the imperial court, it is impossible to start planting it all over the country. Besides, I've been in the limelight before, and my father told me not to cause trouble for him for the past two years. Neither does this kind of good thing. ”

Jiang Yan just mentioned it in passing, and he didn't want to. Anyway, sweet potatoes are not planted where.

The two of them were going to wander around the city, Yunzhou City had only developed in the past two years, except for more inns and restaurants, there was nothing else to do. After all, the people here have not yet become rich, and one or two shops for those merchants are enough.

Zhang Yan didn't have anything to buy here, he originally wanted to transport the things of his family members out this time. Add more stuff to take home.

Jiang Yan enjoyed that the sweet potatoes in Fuli should have been grinded, and because there was nothing to do outside, she went back to Xie Fu with Xie Jingxing.

Speaking of which, he had to admire Xie Jinxin. He had only been in Yunzhou for two days and felt that there was nothing interesting in this place. Xie Jingxing grew up in the experience since he was a child, and he was born with the prince of the mansion What delicious and fun, I have never seen it, and I suddenly came to such a remote place. It's been three years, and he can actually bear it. And it's going to be a few more years like this. This man's endurance is really admirable.
