Almost all of Wang Fugui's generation have come. When it comes to farming, no one can compare to them. This time they are planting sweet potatoes, and no one is better than them.

This time everyone is a team leader, leading two or three hundred people to farm in groups.

In order to speed up efficiency, Suhe asked someone to transport a batch of cattle and mules from Su'an County.

In just two months, three hundred acres of land were planted.

When it came time for the autumn harvest, everyone put down their work and began to take turns digging sweet potatoes, and all the sorted sweet potatoes were stored in the cellar.

The Chen family army guarding the border also benefited from it. They also ate fresh sweet potatoes during the Chinese New Year.

The fat lady was the first to eat. She looked at the big, red, juicy sweet potatoes and was reluctant to even peel them. She washed them carefully and took a bite. They were sweet and delicious. The sweet taste of the food brought tears to her eyes.

"It's delicious. Much better than that moldy rice."

The people present watched with a smile, and each picked one to eat.

Everyone said it was delicious after eating, and everyone was very happy to think that they would be able to eat such delicious food in the future.

After the autumn harvest, everyone rested for two days and then started building houses again.

By New Year's Eve, a quarter of the city's buildings were finished, and everyone could live there.

Everyone spent a warm and hopeful New Year's Eve on the warm kang.

After resting for three days, everyone started working again. Since they couldn't build the house, they started helping to make the loom.

Women are busy making clothes even during the New Year.

Those who had families made clothes for them, and those who didn’t had families got clothes of corresponding sizes. During the two months of winter, they made clothes for three rooms.

In the spring of the second year, everyone was even busier. Not only did they continue with spring ploughing and building houses, but they also had to make sweet potato flour and dried sweet potatoes. The dried sweet potatoes could be used by soldiers on patrol at the border.

The number of people in Jinyang City has increased over the past year. Su He estimated that he and his team would be unable to handle the situation, so he wrote a letter before the New Year and asked to second Wang Huahua and Wang Lanlan to come over.

Only with the addition of two helpers did Su He feel like he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Gradually, Xiaoya and the others' hand speed increased, and by the time of summer harvest, the number of indigenous people coming to Jinyang City suddenly decreased a lot.

I guess if anyone wants to go to Suho, they will have to wait until September. The weather is too hot and no one wants to travel in the middle of summer.

This summer, everyone worked hard to make sweet potato flour and dry sweet potatoes, and then put them in the cellar. Sweet potato dry is soft, sticky and sweet, and people who travel long distances like to take a big bag with them.

This year Su He also planted potatoes and peanuts.

After growing the crops, Su He opened a snack bar.

Fried potatoes, potato pancakes, baked potatoes.

Sprinkle it with all kinds of fragrant seasonings, and it immediately becomes the most popular shop in Jinyang City.

The original intention of Suhe is to enhance the happiness of the people in Jinyang City, so the price is not expensive, 2 cents a bowl.

In addition to potatoes, there are also peanuts, fried peanuts, drunkard peanuts, five-spice peanuts, and peanut butter, which is the favorite of old lady Zhao's family.

After calculating the costs, Suhe expects to make a loss for two years and slightly increase prices in the third year to try to avoid losses.

The Chen family army guarding the border likes to come to this store the most, and peanuts are their favorite.

If we were to say who is most grateful for Mu Tou and his team’s arrival, it would definitely be Chen’s army.

Since Mu Tou became an official, they have had plenty of food and cheap and easy-to-use linen. Most importantly, their daily lives are no longer boring, and the city is bustling with people coming and going.

In just two years, the roads in the main city were repaired and the main buildings in the city were also completed.

Every corner of the city looks brand new, and this city is finally alive.

In the third year, there were gradually some street vendors, and Su He was finally able to eat breakfast outside. However, she would be recognized by the stall owners every time, and none of them was willing to accept her money.

After the summer harvest, Su He and Xu Qiao jointly built the first formal academy in Jinyang Prefecture.

He Miao Academy.

All children can study for free.

The children have lunch in the academy and have afternoon tea every afternoon.

When the people of Jinyang come back from work every day and look at the children carrying their small schoolbags, they feel all their fatigue of the day disappear.

Children are their hope.

In the past few years, Su He never forgot to write letters to his family in Guangyuan and people in the capital. After receiving Su He's letter saying that the academy was built, Master Shen of Yunkai Academy immediately arranged for people to transport the books he had prepared long ago.

Two months later, the book was in Su He's hands.

Gradually, the situation in Jinyang City spread to all parts of Dayong.

Those who were still watching couldn't help it anymore, and one by one they packed up their bags and returned to Jinyang City.

After having enough manpower, Mu Tou led the team to expand outward in one go.

Huaihe County finally began to rebuild.

Three years passed in a flash. Mu Tou stood on the city wall, looking at the prosperous city inside and outside, and recalled his childhood.

Sometimes he felt that time passed very slowly, so slowly that he could remember every day's experience very clearly. Sometimes he felt that time passed very quickly, as if he was still taking the palace examination yesterday. How come he had been in Jinyang City for three years?

Mu Tou walked slowly down to the city gate and looked at the passers-by. Every one of them would stop and say hello when they saw Mu Tou.

"My Lord, have you eaten yet?"

"Uncle Wang, I'll go back to eat later. Are you here to sell vegetables again? Did everything go well today?"

Old man Wang smiled with wrinkles all over his face, "It went smoothly, no one bullied me."

"Sir, go back and rest early. It's getting late."

Mu Tou smiled and nodded, said goodbye to Old Man Wang, and started walking towards home.

"Hello, Auntie, I would like to ask if there are any vacant houses in Jinyang City. I am a native here and I just came back."

"Yes, our Jinyang City is developing very well now. Are you all indigenous people? This matter is now under the jurisdiction of the office. I will take you there."

The old lady was very enthusiastic and did a very skillful job of helping to lead the way.

Mu Tou turned around and stared at the woman who was speaking.

This voice sounds so familiar.

Su He was just muttering about how her younger brother had gone out to wander around again and always had to urge him to come back every time it was time for dinner.

"Next time, don't wait for your brother. Leave two steamed buns for him."

"Yeah."

Miaomiao said with a smile.

"What about your sister-in-law?"

"My sister-in-law was inspecting the goods at the textile factory two quarters of an hour ago. She will ship a batch of goods to the south to sell next month."

"Then I guess he won't be back for half an hour. Miaomiao, give your sister-in-law some vegetables to warm in the kitchen."

"Well, I'll split now."

Mu Tou watched helplessly as his elder sister and younger sister treated him and his wife differently.

"Sister, I'm back."

Su He glanced at his brother and said unhappily.

"I saw it. Go wash your hands and eat. Every time it's time to eat, you just hang out. You have no sense of time at all."

"Brother, it's like everyone is getting ready to go out, but you insist on going to the bathroom, and it will take more than 25 minutes. I'm so angry that I want to punch you twice."

Miaomiao followed her sister's footsteps and specifically gave an example to mock her brother.

Mu Tou smiled awkwardly to the side, then called out "sister" loudly.

"Sister, your old friend is here."
