Shen Nanzhi smiled and said, "Since Young Master Yang is so noble and considerate of the people, why don't you also be considerate of the people in our Elm Village?

It is certainly possible to deliver food to the neighboring village, but did Master Yang pay for them?

The food in our village does not fall from the sky. It is grown through several months of hard work. Every drop of sweat pays off. It is the blood and sweat of the villagers.

Ten thousand catties of sweet potatoes, according to the price we sell them for, fifty coins per catty, that is five hundred taels of silver, I'm sure it's a piece of cake for you."

Yang Lingzhao breathed rapidly: "You actually asked me for money?"

"What else? You have the nerve to ask me for food, why can't I ask for money? Your money is money, and our food is just blown by the wind?

How about we go find the prefect to judge who is right and who is wrong in this matter?"

Shen Nanzhi will not tolerate him. This stupid guy was probably fooled by Lin Xueqing.

This bitch actually dared to plot against me, she's looking for death!

Yang Lingzhao was furious: "You still want to sue me? Shen Nanzhi, you are really great. I have always admired you, but you turned out to be such a person."

Shen Nanzhi said coldly: "Your appreciation is just a way to take advantage of my food, I don't deserve that."

Shen Qingshan was a little worried. After all, he was the son of the prefect, so Nan Zhi should not offend him too much.

"Young Master Yang, calm down. Let's discuss this matter slowly. You probably don't know that our Nan Zhi has suffered too much injustice in the Jiang family. The people in their village are also xenophobic and have never regarded Nan Zhi as their own. If it weren't for our village's strong intervention, they would not have let her go.

You have to understand her feelings. Would you be happy to deliver food to those who bully you?

Besides, they are not dying, and it is not the case that they need help from our village."

Shen Qingshan also felt that it was very strange that he suddenly did this. You are not from Shimo Village. Is it appropriate for you to suddenly come forward to help them?

Shen Nanzhi sneered: "Last time when I saved Young Master Yang, were you with Lin Xueqing?

I remind you, Young Master Yang, that she is a married woman. If you get entangled with her, aren't you afraid of ruining your reputation?"

"A married woman? Is she married? Impossible. She still has a girl's hairstyle, not a woman's attire!"

Yang Lingzhao was struck by lightning and couldn't believe that Lin Xueqing would lie to him.

Shen Qingshan explained to him: "This is true. She is not someone's principal wife, but a concubine, belonging to Jiang Xiucai. Nan Zhi divorced him because of their affair. The Jiang family favored the concubine over the wife."

"Concubine?"

Shen Nanzhi was watching the fun and didn't mind the big deal: "Yes, everyone in the nearby villages knows about it. They are having an affair in broad daylight. It seems that Lin likes to do it all over the place. It's exciting!"

Yang Lingzhao's face was filled with shame, as if he had been slapped several times. "I'll go find that bitch and ask her for clarification!"

"Don't worry, you are the son of a prefect, and if the news gets out that you are trying to steal someone's concubine, your reputation will be ruined.

Didn't you hurt the jade bottle when you killed the mouse? Calm down."

Yang Lingzhao: "What should I do? Should I just bear this?"

"Mr. Yang, those involved are confused but those who are watching can see things more clearly. If you want to deal with a scholar and a concubine, do you need to do it yourself?"

Yang Lingzhao's servant Yan said, "Sir, that woman is not worth it at all. When the wild boar came, she left you and ran away. Have you forgotten?"

Yang Lingzhao felt like he was hit on the head with a stick again, "Is this true?"

"Yes, I saw it clearly. She ran so fast that she didn't even look back to see if you were dead or alive."

Yang Lingzhao wanted to vomit blood. How could she be such a person?

Shen Nanzhi sympathized with him, "Young Master Yang, are you still sending food?"

Yang Lingzhao: “…”

He said with a dark face: "Send fart!"

"Hey, how can you talk like that? It's so rude!"

Yang Lingzhao was so angry that he left. Shen Nanzhi was in a good mood. Just wait and see what bad luck the Lin family will suffer in the future.

Shen Huai'en looked at her playful eyes after she did something naughty, and showed a doting look: "Are you happy now?"

"Shouldn't I be happy? That Lin dared to plot against me. I really want to slap her in the face. It would be more satisfying to take revenge in person."

I'm just curious, what do you men think? You're fooled by women and you're hooked. You call me stupid and think I'm mean. "

Shen Huai'en was innocent. "This is what he did. It has nothing to do with me."

"You are a man too, take this as a warning!"

Shen Nanzhi patted his shoulder and left, making Shen Huai'en depressed.

It would take some time for Governor Yang to get any results, so Shen Nanzhi taught the villagers how to make starch, and from then on the raw materials for the starch sausages were purchased from the village.

As for winemaking, most villagers know how to make wine for their own drinking. They can’t bear to buy wine because it’s too expensive.

However, in the past, sorghum wine was brewed only in years with surplus grain. In bad years, it was difficult to get food, so no one would waste grain to make wine.

There are so many sweet potatoes and corn this year that people don’t even want to eat sorghum. Every household is making wine.

Shen Nanzhi encourages everyone to make wine. As the reputation of the tourist village spreads, selling wine will also bring in a considerable amount of income.

Only by earning income from multiple sources can the village become prosperous. After years of living in poverty, money is needed everywhere.

After more than ten days of hard work, it is time to harvest Shen Nanzhi's more than 100 acres of land. This is a big project and it will take several days.

Everyone in the village came to help. Shen Nanzhi thought it was too slow and would waste several days. Thinking of the tractor that harvested sweet potatoes in the space, she came up with an idea: "I've found someone to harvest them. You don't have to worry about it. They'll come over tonight."

"If you collect it at night, will you be able to see it clearly?"

"There are many people here, all from the county. We are only free at night. Everyone has worked hard for so many days. Go back and rest early. I can handle it here."

The villagers were skeptical and went home first, planning to come back tomorrow to check again. If they were too busy, they would lend a hand.

At night, Shen Nanzhi sneaked out, took out the tractor, installed the equipment for harvesting sweet potatoes, and started harvesting with a rumbling sound.

After the sweet potatoes are turned out, the ground can be dug deeper, making the soil softer and easier to plant wheat.

Because the foot of the mountain was far away from the village and no one heard him, Shen Nanzhi finished harvesting all the land in just two hours.

Put the tractor into the space, and come back tomorrow to transport the sweet potatoes and seedlings away.

Shen Huai'en listened to the noise and couldn't help but worry. What kind of magical trick was Nan Zhi using?

What kind of secret is she hiding?

Shen Huai'en fell asleep after waiting for her to come back. He dozed off for an hour, and when he saw dawn, he went to the field to take a look. He was stunned by the scene in front of him.
