Wei Ruo's carriage went all the way north, and after arriving near Mantou Mountain in the north of the city, the steward here had already received the order from the Yun clan and was waiting early.

After Wei Ruo asked the steward to arrange for the chief worker to replant the seedlings in the vacant area, he excused himself to walk around and left accompanied by Xiumei.

Along the way, Wei Ruo found that the rice fields here were not growing well, and there were still a large number of deaths.

Some rice fields are in a more serious situation than the Wei family.

This does not bode well, and if this situation continues, this year's autumn harvest will be worrisome.

Regarding the food situation in Xingshan County this year, the nurse had written to her earlier, but now that she saw it with her own eyes, she knew that the situation was even more serious than she thought.

Wei Ruo took Xiumei to Xiaoyang Mountain.

Most of the original barren mountains have been planted with sweet potatoes, and the ground is full of green leaves, and the growth is gratifying.

Today, some vine leaves are still picked and sold at the market every day.

The price of a penny is very affordable, and both rich and noble families and ordinary people can afford it.

Therefore, one car a day is not enough to sell.

Although the price of a penny is not high, it can still be earned.

对于一般的瓜果蔬菜，魏若倾向于薄利多销，而那些针对上流社会的“奢侈品”她才倾向于卖高价。

Wei Ruo randomly selected a piece of land, dug up a corner, and checked the growth of the sweet potatoes inside.

At this time, the sweet potatoes have not yet grown to the optimal size, and they are still a little small, only a small part of the little finger, which is far from the standard size of the harvest, but it can be seen that the current growth is good, and there are no pests and diseases.

The seeds of Weiruo Space are all excellent varieties, and they have excellent performance in resistance to diseases and pests, drought and waterlogging. And the growth rate is also relatively fast in the same category, and it is estimated that in another month, this batch of sweet potatoes can all grow.

When the time comes, it will be available for sale one after another. Some of them are put into the warehouse for storage, and the remaining part of them is planned to be made into dried sweet potatoes for preservation, and some of the dried sweet potatoes will be sold in the preserved fruit shop.

When traveling during the Dragon Boat Festival, Wei Ruo took the opportunity to inspect several preserved fruit shops, and finally chose one, planning to cooperate with the other party to sell dried sweet potatoes and sweet potato chips in the other party's store.

In this way, for Wei Ruo, he can save the risk of opening a separate store to sell, and at the same time, he can also use the existing customer flow of the preserved fruit store to increase sales for himself.

Wei Ruo stayed in Xiaoyang Mountain until the evening, and then returned to Wei's Mantou Mountain.

The rice planting work was also nearing the end, Wei Ruo took a casual look and then got into the carriage and went back.

By the time Wei Ruo returned to the Wei Mansion, it had already passed the usual time for dinner in the Wei Mansion.

Wei Ruo came home late, and the Wei family did not eat in advance, and waited until Wei Ruo came back before the Yun family notified the kitchen to arrange the dishes.

After dinner, when they were sitting together drinking tea, Yun asked Wei Ruo about the details of today.

"Ruo'er did a really good job in the wasteland in the south of the city, and I really didn't expect Ruo'er to be able to improve and successfully grow crops, and I underestimated Ruo'er for my mother before." Yun sighed.

"Hmm." Wei Ruo echoed in a low voice.

"Ruo'er you will make up the seedlings to Mantou Mountain, this decision is also a great help to the family, this year the seedlings in the field have died to varying degrees, our family is relatively good, nearly half of the serious deaths, this is not yet autumn, can already foresee this year's food situation, the people in the city are worried, and several ladies who are familiar with me are also worried about this matter."

The family's land has been in poor harvest for many years, and even those with some background in Xingshan County may not be able to afford it.

This large family is waiting for food, and if they have to buy food every day, they don't know how much silver it will cost.

What's more, if everyone is short of food, food prices will inevitably rise, and it will be very difficult to buy their own food at that time.

Wei Ruo tasted the tea and didn't answer, what she was thinking now was that she had known that everyone's seedlings were dead, and she should have secretly sold the extra seedlings, which should be able to sell for a lot of money.

"What happened in the south of the city today, Ruo'er will talk to Wei Niang in detail." The Yun clan also wanted to hear Wei Ruo talk about the specific process again.

"The seedlings are growing well, and my father and Master Qian have approved of it. In addition, there is a son from the capital who said that he wants to help and will send someone over tomorrow. Wei Ruo replied lightly, and everything was brushed over by her.

She can't mention Chu Lan's matter if she doesn't want to, the person he sent will be in the mansion tomorrow, and with his status, it is impossible for Wei Mingting not to inform the mansion in advance.

"Your nobleman wants help?" Yun was surprised.

Wei Qingwan also raised her head and looked at Wei Ruo.

Now in Xingshan County, the only person who can be called a "nobleman" by the Wei family is the boy in brocade who caught a glimpse on the street that day.

Although the identity of the nobleman has not been completely disclosed, the Wei family has already guessed seven or eight points with the news from the capital.

"Well, he seems to care about people's livelihood." Wei Ruo was very annoyed by Chu Lan, and he didn't even want to talk about anything related to her.

Wei Ruo said lightly, but the hearts of those who listened were surging.

"Well, that's right, since you want to help, then you have to be more cautious." The Yun clan immediately told Wei Ruo.

"I'm doing my best when it comes to farming." Wei Ruo replied, it was not for Chu Lan to see.

Yun said with some emotion: "I thought that Wanwan and Miss Qian would displease the nobles after they collided with the nobles in Fahua Temple that day, but now it seems that the nobles did not take the affairs of that day to heart, but now Ruo'er, what you are doing in the south of the city has made the nobles take care of them." ”

When Yun said this, Wei Qingwan, who was hanging his head slightly, trembled.

It was like a slap in the face to her.

Coupled with the comparison with Wei Ruo in the back, Wei Qingwan only felt that she was trampled on the ground.

Wei Ruo didn't listen much to what the Yun clan said, this noble person was not expensive to her at all, and she couldn't wait to stay away.

Wei Yilin flattened his mouth and glanced at Wei Ruo several times, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't really believe that Wei Ruo could make such a career.

Obviously even Sister Wanwan can't do something, why can Wei Qingruo do it? Obviously, Sister Wanwan is so much better than her!

After dinner, Wei Qingwan chewed wax.

She left Cangyun Yuan with a sad and lonely mood.

When Wei Yichen saw her, he chased after her and asked, "Wanwan, what's wrong with you?" Feeling unwell? ”

"Big brother, am I useless?" Wei Qingwan asked softly.

"Why do you ask that?"
