Traveling through ancient times.

Jiang Yizhou hurried back to the warehouse, put down his things, and then took the sack to start exchanging for corn seeds.

According to the introduction in the system, Jiang Yizhou needs about two to three kilograms per acre.

She made an estimate: currently there are more than 100 acres of land vacant due to wheat harvest, plus more than 200 acres of flat land and more than 200 acres of mountain land reclaimed from last year to this year.

She planned to do something big and plant corn on nearly 400 acres of flat land.

After the harvest, the high-quality seeds will be promoted on a large scale, which will not only bring back the funds, but also enhance the merits and reputation.

The more than 200 acres of mountain land will first be planted with crops with short growth cycles, such as radishes, cucumbers, and melons.

After the cassava is harvested in autumn and winter, all the mountain land will be planted with cassava.

The remaining flat land will be used for wheat and corn rotation for the time being, and adjustments will be made once more merits are earned to exchange for better seeds.

Three kilograms of this improved corn per acre is enough, but she thought that the newly reclaimed land was relatively barren, so even if it was two kilograms, she would still need to exchange for seven or eight hundred kilograms.

"Do you want to spend 1000 merits to exchange for improved corn seeds?"

"Yes--"

Jiang Yizhou quickly clicked to confirm.

Then a small pile of corn seeds, about two kilograms, appeared out of thin air in front of him.

She was prepared and quickly caught it in a sack.

The initial exchange is only two kilograms. If you want more, you need one merit to purchase it.

In other words, if Jiang Yizhou wants to exchange 400 acres of seeds, he needs at least 800 kilograms, 400 portions, and 400 merits.

There were still more than 500 points left in the account. I had originally thought of leaving 300 merit points to exchange for large white radishes, but after thinking about it, I realized that filling people’s stomachs was more important.

I simply spent four hundred to exchange for four hundred copies, eight hundred kilograms, which filled eight sacks.

The merit balance is 160. I will have to wait a little longer for the radish seeds I have been wanting to exchange for.

However, growing corn this time will definitely require a lot of labor and provide many jobs, so I should be able to gain some merit.

Furthermore, the growth cycle of radish is relatively short, so it is completely possible to plant it in summer or autumn.

Jiang Yizhou had just finished his work when Lu Junsheng came over with Wei Ke and Liao Qi.

When Wei Ke and Liao Qi saw Jiang Yizhou, they were stunned.

Lu Junsheng saw the three people looking at each other in surprise, and was about to ask if they had found the wrong person.

I only heard the girl call out uncertainly: "Miss?"

Liao Qi's performance was better, which made him think of their first meeting.

He saw a person coming out from the corner of the street, and his first impression was that this woman looked so old..., so he blurted out the word "Auntie".

However, when he subconsciously grabbed the other person's trouser leg, he suddenly felt that he had shouted wrongly.

Then I realized that this person had put makeup on himself on purpose.

He could tell at a glance whether a normal person was wearing makeup or not, but the one she wore almost fooled him. The key point was that she deliberately made herself look older and uglier.

At that moment, he felt that the person in front of him was not simple.

It was not until later that he discovered that the task assigned to him by the other party was related to the person Qi Hao was following, and he immediately agreed to it.

Then, he saw her remove her makeup in front of him. Although she was not as stunning as he had imagined, the determination and resoluteness in her expression left a deep impression on him.

...Liao Qi made a careful comparison and found that the lady's makeup looked many times better now than before.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, she still looks like a weathered woman in her forties.

Even Wei Ke, who had followed her for several months, was not sure for a moment, which showed that her makeup technique was quite successful.

No wonder when they were looking for Lu Junsheng to lead the way, Lu Junsheng repeatedly said: There is indeed a person named Jiang Yizhou who came to rent a warehouse here, but he is a middle-aged aunt, not a young woman.

It turned out to be the case.

Lu Junsheng saw the three people looking at each other, as if they were acquaintances but also as if they didn't know each other.

He looked back and forth between the people and asked, "Is she the person you are looking for? Auntie, do you know these two people?"

The three said: "Let's get to know each other, thank you..."

Lu Junsheng patted his chest and said, "That's good, that's good."

He noticed that the expressions on several people's faces looked a little strange, and subconsciously looked at Jiang Yizhou's face a few more times.

This little episode passed quickly, and everyone's attention was focused on the large pile of things in the warehouse.

Wei Ke and Liao Qi didn't expect Jiang Yizhou to be so proactive and buy so much in just half a day.

Lu Junsheng also felt that this aunt was a little unusual, but he didn't delve into it further.

He just silently helped a few people move things onto the carriage. This warehouse was not used for even a day, but it was only worth half a tael of silver. If someone came later, he could rent it out.

The carriage was filled with things inside and out, making it inconvenient for people to sit in.

He needed to buy fish fry later, so Jiang Yizhou decided to go to the livestock market to buy another carriage.

Money makes things easier, and with the developed trade here, a suitable carriage was quickly found. It only had a skinny pony and a frame, and it cost thirty taels of silver.

This is perfect for storing things.

After buying the carriage, Jiang Yizhou and the other two rushed to the fish and shrimp market, as Wei Ke, Liao Qi and the boss had discussed before.

It's almost time to go shopping now, and the busy streets are deserted, but the boss is still waiting there.

The fish fry were stored in a large wooden box, which contained several hundred small fish about the size of a finger.

The two parties agreed on a price of about 300 small fish, three taels of silver, and an additional 100 wen for the wooden box, and the payment and delivery were completed.

The boss said to scoop out some water from time to time to prevent the small fish from turning over.

Seeing that the people were very trustworthy and straightforward in their purchases, he took two green melons the size of fists from a bamboo basket nearby and gave them to Jiang Yizhou.

"This is our water melon. My wife specially selected water melon seeds that are not bitter and planted them. They will definitely not make you cry. They are perfect for quenching your thirst on the road."

Water melon? Bitter? Quenching thirst?

Jiang Yizhou looked at the small green melon in his hand, which weighed no more than half a pound, and a light flashed in his mind.

Water melon, isn’t this the predecessor of watermelon?

Wild watermelons are not only small and bitter, but also somewhat poisonous.

The sweet and delicious watermelons in her original world are the result of generations of screening and genetic improvement.

If this can be grown, then...

While thanking the boss, she quickly contacted Xiao Tongzi: "Help me check, is this a watermelon? Can it be exchanged for improved watermelon seeds?"

Xiao Tongzi: "Let me search..."

After waiting for a long time, Xiao Tongzi's voice came: "It's found, you can see for yourself."

"Watermelon Generation 500 Seed: Merits"

"Watermelon Second Generation Seed: 1000 Merits"

"Watermelon third generation seeds: 2000 merits"

Jiang Yizhou: "What do the first, second and third generations mean?"

Xiao Tongzi: "The difference between your watermelon and the improved gene is too big, so it is divided into first, second and third generations. If it is a first-generation seed, it will grow out like this..."
