Manager Liu could tell what they were thinking. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, 1’11 still leave some people behind. Besides, Li Si and the others can now take charge of things on their own, so you don’t have to worry about the safety of the manor.”

“You’re going to promote white sweet potatoes to the masses?” Zhou Ying asked with a smile.

“Yes, we should at least promote it to Yunhe County as much as possible. It’s just a pity that those seeds are wasted. Otherwise, it would have been faster.” “We’re lucky not to have everything frozen solid after that cold weather.” “You’re right.” Manager Liu nodded in agreement. “It was difficult even to have seedlings after such cold weather last year.

“By the way, I thought of only leaving you 100 acres of seeds this time. I might need to take the rest with me,” Manager Liu asked.

“Sure, as long as we have enough to eat. You and County Magistrate Kong can decide on the rest.”

“I thank you on behalf of the people of Yunhe County.” Manager Liu thanked the couple.

Three days later, after the seedlings in the manor were planted, the couple cleaned up the land in their backyard and planted more. Once they grew, they would sell some if they could and eat them if they couldn’t.

One day, Zhou Ying was drying her quilt in the yard when Gu Ziyi walked in. She asked, “Sister-in-law, are you busy?”

“I’m just drying the blanket. Come in and take a seat.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she hung up the quilt and welcomed her into her living room.

“Sister, did you come over for something?” She poured her a glass of water.

“I do have two things I need your help with.” Gu Ziyi nodded.

“There’s no more salt at home. So, I don’t know if you have any extras at home to spare me some.

“Also, I bought five acres of land recently. 1 don’t know if you have extra white potato and chili seedlings for sale.”

“I do have salt, but it’s large salt clumps. If you want it, 1 can give you a pound.

“As for the potato seedlings, I can give you about three acres of land worth.

“However, 1 didn’t grow any chili seedlings at home this year, so 1 can’t help out on that.”

“This is great enough. I’ll buy it from you at the same price as last year.”

“Sure, wait a moment.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she gave her a pound of the large salt clumps she had stored and handed it to her. “We don’t have much left at home; please don’t tell anyone.”

“Definitely. I won’t tell anyone. But with the road cleared, salt should be here soon.”

“I hope so. I heard that many families in the village have run out of salt.”

“That’s right. By the way, this salt was selling for 50 coppers a while ago. I’ll give you the money.” After Gu Ziyi finished speaking, she took money from her purse and said, “I’ll leave the rest with you. I’ll take the change once 1 come to get the sweet potato seedlings.”

“Sure, I’ll calculate it in a go.” Zhou Ying nodded.

After chatting for a while, Gu Ziyi left.

Zhou Ying went to the nearest well with two sets of clothes and some soap to wash the clothes.

As soon as she went out, she found that the mountains and fields were full of children digging for wild vegetables.

Unfortunately, there had been two years of drought in a row, hampering the growth of vegetable seedlings and resulting in a small number of wild vegetables this year.

“Manager Zhou, have you also come over to wash clothes? Come over to my side; there’s a place to sit.” Widow Hua immediately greeted her when she arrived at the wells.

“Thank you, Auntie Hua.” Zhou Ying greeted her and put her basin over. She poured a bucket of water into the basin and washed her clothes as she sat on a stone.

At the same time, Widow Hua asked, “You don’t have to thank me. By the way, now that the drought is over, when will your restaurant open for business?” “The drought is over, but the grain has not grown yet, so there is still a long wait.

“Don’t worry, I’ll pick up any grown chili you’ve planted.”

“To be honest, it’s a big loss of income once you guys stop buying vegetables.” Qian Shisan quipped in.

“Indeed, during the spring of two years ago, I could earn two or three taels of silver just by selling vegetables.” Someone chimed in as well..
