Yipin Qiao Nongfei

Chapter 136 Fishing

Two days later, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival. In the middle of the afternoon, it started to rain, and the students of the government school did not go home after school, chatting casually in the classroom while waiting for the rain to stop.

"So your sixth uncle met an old man who owed him money and gave him [-] mu of fertile land. He gave the land to your third sister?"

Shen Yuanxi tapped his fingers on the table, and asked with great interest. Seeing Su Yunyang nodding, he touched his chin: "Your family also agreed? Your father has nothing to say?"

"What can I say? It's Uncle Six's land, he will give it to whoever he likes, and besides, Third Sister just spoke for my brother earlier."

Su Yunyang spread his hands, and then said with a smile: "If you want to talk about my third sister, she is really good at everything. When I got the land deed, I promised to give ten acres to my fourth brother, which immediately made my third uncle and aunt speechless."

"This matter is a bit interesting." Shen Yuanxi said with a deep smile, "Speaking of which, Yunyang, do you know about Baitang?"

"What's the matter? White... white sugar? What white sugar? Is it the kind of sugar I thought?"

"Yes, it's the kind of sugar used to make desserts." Shen Yuanxi smiled: "Speaking of which, you shouldn't be unfamiliar with sugar. Aren't your beets are used to make sugar?"

"That's the beet planted by my third sister. I don't know how to grow... wait, it's not right."

Su Yunyang finally came to his senses: "Candy and white? Why have I never seen it before?"

"I haven't seen it either, I just heard..."

Shen Yuanxi glanced at Su Yunyang meaningfully, and said in a low voice: "It seems that Fang Xuesong sent this white sugar to Prince Rong's mansion, and Prince Rong presented it to the emperor. In less than a day, news spread throughout the capital that it was the white sugar." Soft as snow, melts in the mouth, sweet and delicious.”

"So fast?" Su Yunyang obviously missed the point: "The news in the palace can be revealed so easily?"

Shen Yuanxi rolled his eyes: "Why don't you understand? Obviously, Changji Sugar Factory will produce this kind of white sugar in the future. Xuesong can't wait for someone to promote it for him, plus the signboards of the emperor and Prince Rong, and the rarity of white sugar itself, think about it. How wide is the road to wealth."

"I see."

Su Yunyang was speechless.After all, he is a smart person. After being amazed, he thought of the look in his boss's eyes. He immediately drew inferences and said in surprise: "Boss, what do you mean? This white sugar... is... I... my third sister...:"

"Hey, I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything." Shen Yuanxi touched his chin: "Don't think about things without evidence. By the way, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. The scenery at your house must be good, right? I'll see someday Go around."

Su Yunyang: ... Uh... Boss, are you sure you are going to see the scenery?I have never seen you like our scenery so much before.

No matter whether Shen Yuanxi was looking at the scenery or someone else, for example, the next day, he came to the door with big and small gifts.

Although he didn't have Fang Xuesong's rich background, Xiao Sanyuan's name should not be underestimated. Before he reached the street gate, all the Su family came out to welcome him.

Su Wanqiu was leaning against the door frame and knocking on melon seeds, pursed her lips and smiled at such a "grand occasion", suddenly heard Su Wanxia wondering behind her: "Qiu, what are you laughing at?"

"Sister, look at our family, how can we pick up Shen Yuanxi? Obviously, we brought back a live dragon."

With a "poof", Su Wanxia couldn't help laughing, when she raised her eyes, she saw Shen Yuanxi looking over, her brows raised, those eyes stared at Su Wanqiu as if she could speak.

"Why do I feel that Young Master Shen heard this, his eyes clearly said to you 'wait for me', am I overthinking Qiu?"

"Probably not." Su Wanqiu didn't care about it: "He is good at martial arts, anyway, his listening skills are full, so it's not unusual to hear what I say."

"Qiu, why are you still sticking around at home?" Seeing Mrs. Wang coming out from the main room, she shouted to this side, "Master Shen is here."

"What? Isn't it enough that you all welcome out? Do I have to go to socialize too? Tell him that I don't have time."

Su Wanqiu turned around and entered the room, only to hear Mrs. Wang jumping anxiously and shouting: "You child, you are being stubborn again. You came here for no other reason than to bring those melon seeds you planted to Young Master Shen. Try it."

"Autumn, autumn..."

Su Wanxia turned her head to call Su Wanqiu, but she saw that she said impatiently: "You heard Third Aunt yelling, the melon seeds are several catties in the house, they were fried last night, do I need to get them?"

As soon as the words fell, I heard a clear laughter from the upper room: "Don't bother, I have nothing else to do this time, except to enjoy the scenery, there is one more thing, which is to discuss with Yunhai Yunyang, take a look Will they go to the Tongzhou International Fair in a month's time?"

As if the snake had been hit seven inches, Su Wanqiu's whole body was frozen.

Tongzhou?pier?The grand event of all nations?

"Hey! Hey! Qiu... Where are you going, Qiu?"

Su Wanxia saw her younger sister passing by her eyes like a gust of wind, and hurriedly chased her out, only to hear Su Wanqiu laugh crisply: "I'll get Shen Yuanxi sunflower seeds."

Su Wanxia: ...

He happily came to the upper room, only to hear Shen Yuanxi asking Su Mingliang how he was, and asking how the old man was doing.He also said that the weather is getting colder now, so he should be careful about catching a cold and so on.

Su Wanqiu put a plate of melon seeds in front of the other party, waited patiently for him to finish the greetings, and hurriedly asked: "What Tongzhou? What grand meeting of nations? Why don't I know anything about it?"

"Let's not talk about you, I just found out. The Great Meeting of Nations is held every ten years. I was young when it was held last time, but now it's just in time for it."

After Shen Yuanxi finished speaking, he picked up a melon seed and looked left and right: "Is this planted by the third girl?"

"That's right." Su Wanqiu didn't want to waste time on melon seeds, and asked urgently: "What is this grand meeting of nations? Is it only in Tongzhou? Is it a trade conference? Are there any seeds for sale?"

Peanuts, potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes... the treasures I have been thinking about day and night, have you come across the ocean to see me?
But Shen Yuanxi said slowly: "I think this melon seed seems to be slightly larger than the ones sold in the market. I wonder if it is my illusion?"

"It's not an illusion. When I planted the seeds that day, I strictly selected the seeds with the largest size and the fullest grains, so the melon seeds produced should be slightly larger."

Su Wanqiu hurriedly finished speaking, and then asked: "Is this grand meeting of nations available to everyone? How far is Tongzhou from here? Are there any large carriages? By the way, is there a mission for the grand meeting of nations? Those envoys Will the group come to Beijing to do business?"

Shen Yuanxi cracked open a melon seed slowly, tasted it for a while, nodded and said: "Not only is it big, but it also tastes very delicious. It turns out that the impact of seeds will be so great. I never thought about it. I thought..."

"That's enough, you." Su Wanqiu couldn't bear it any longer, and patted the edge of the kang, "If the tiger doesn't show its power, you will treat me as a sick cat, talking about it with a melon seed, Shen Yuanxi..."

Shen Yuanxi looked up at her, and saw Su Wanqiu coughed, and after a while, all the anger on his face turned into a smile: "Master Shen, can you tell me about the situation of this grand meeting of nations?"
