Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape

"Is it the same for Zhang Wu and others?" someone asked. If they could get it for free, they would not accept it. Why should they pay for it when they can get it for free?

"Of course." Xin Ye replied indifferently. Even if he said no, considering the character of Uncle Zhang and the others, they would not agree and would definitely choose the same as the villagers.

"What if a relative comes to ask about it and I accidentally tell others about it? Will it be really serious?"

"Of course," Xin Ye gave an affirmative answer and added, "For the safety of all the villagers, it is best not to entertain relatives or visit relatives this year. If it is not necessary, you must keep your mouth shut, otherwise, it will bring disaster to the whole family and even the whole clan.

Therefore, for safety reasons, it is safest to keep your mouth shut and avoid contact with outsiders.

Of course, sweet potatoes will not always be a rarity. After we grow the seeds this year, the emperor will certainly promote them to other places, and the price of sweet potatoes will fall by then. Therefore, this year's seeds are the most important and the most valuable."

Once these words were spoken, they calmed many restless hearts and also stimulated their desire to make money.

People all have a selfish side, and they also understand that things are valuable because they are scarce. The reason why sweet potatoes are so rare is because they are scarce. Once they are planted and there are more of them, the price will be lower.

In order to make good money this time, they will definitely not miss this opportunity and must not leak it out even if they die!

But people are not all selfish. Most of them are selfish for their own families. But for women like Mrs. Zhang who have been successfully brainwashed by their own families, when they learn of such a good opportunity, they will definitely want to inform their own families to get a share of the pie.

The Zhang family, who had already tasted the sweetness of suppressing Old Lady Zhang, first thought of controlling the person. At this time, Old Man Zhang no longer cared about flirting with his old lady in public, and immediately held her wrist tightly to prevent her from taking the opportunity to slip away and inform the public.

Seeing this, other people who had equally troublesome women at home also followed suit and held down the troublemaking women. As for how to control people at home, that was a matter for after they returned home.

If all else fails, break the person's legs. Otherwise, it will be too late to regret if you let such a person harm your entire family because of your momentary weakness.

Xin Ye saw this scene in the crowd, but did not express his opinion: "Oh, I almost forgot to say that when the sweet potato seeds are about to mature and be harvested, soldiers will come to guard them to prevent anyone from destroying them. This shows how much the emperor and the adults value these sweet potatoes."

Xin Ye wasn't being kind in reminding them that soldiers would come to guard the place in a few months and that there was no need to be nervous or afraid. His intention was purely to hint to all the villagers the importance of leaking the secret.

And his indifferent look seemed to convey another message - if it was really leaked, it had nothing to do with me! We were not familiar with each other, we were not related by blood, so I would not help, let alone plead.

Muramasa and several clan elders were not stupid and immediately understood what Xinye meant, especially the several old clan leaders. Their families were prosperous and there were some unscrupulous people among them. Once there was a bad apple, the worst case scenario was that the whole clan would be implicated.

——It must be beaten well!

If all else fails, trap the person, or find a reason to throw him into jail, and ask the magistrate to keep him there. As for your reputation?

The reputation of their Dashan Village had already been disgraced once because of the Zhang family, so what if it was disgraced again?

As long as the sweet potatoes are successful and they make money, if they happen to get praise from the emperor, the reputation of Dashan Village will not only not be ruined, but it will become a model for the surrounding area!

"Ohno, tell us how to plant sweet potatoes and what we should do next? Also, how should we divide the seeds?"

"The seeds are distributed according to household registration, and one acre is tentatively set for each household. When the sweet potato vines you plant grow up, you can divide them and plant them again. How many seedlings you can get from the sweet potatoes you plant depends on how you plant them."

"For every acre of land we plant, should we give you 10% of the seedlings or just the original acre of land?"

"Of course, you get as much as you plant." Xin Ye didn't think he was a black-hearted person, but he wasn't a jerk either. "Don't worry, we'll only collect the sweet potatoes this year. The sweet potatoes you plant next year will all belong to you.

At that time, you will handle it yourself or the court will handle it. You need to wait for the court's order, but whether you sell it yourself or sell it to the court, the money is yours. "

After this was said, many people felt that they had lost out.

As if he could read minds, Xin Ye continued, "Don't think you are at a disadvantage. If it weren't for the fact that we are all from Dashan Village, you wouldn't have gotten this opportunity.

If it weren't for the sweet potato seedlings I provided, you wouldn't have a penny. I only charge you 3% of your sweet potatoes. One acre of land can produce about 4 to kilograms of sweet potatoes. You only need to give me to kilograms of sweet potatoes. The remaining several thousand kilograms of sweet potatoes are enough for you to make a fortune."

After hearing this, many people felt better.

"Hiss—can you harvest so many sweet potatoes?"

"Yes, sweet potatoes are a high-yield food, so the emperor attaches great importance to them. I hope all uncles and aunts will think carefully and act with caution."

The reminders have been made clear time and again, and if someone still doesn't take it seriously and a tragedy occurs, it has nothing to do with him.

"The next step is for everyone to go back and till the land. The household that has prepared the land should go to the village chief to register their name, and then come and find a few adults. They will teach you how to grow sweet potatoes."

"Does the land need to be laid out in rows?"

"Yes."

"If we turn the soil today, can we plant it today?"

Xin Ye looked up at the sky and saw that it was already afternoon: "If we turn the soil over before the evening hour, we can plant it today. Of course, we can still plant it overnight."

Having said that, if there are many people in the family, everyone can definitely turn the ground over in an hour. Otherwise, if there are so many people tomorrow, won’t the four adults have to queue?

Xin Ye naturally would not let the four adults teach in person, but he just wanted someone to be the leader to prevent the villagers from making trouble.

Aunt Qi and others are already veterans. They are responsible for assisting the four adults, and it is more appropriate for them to guide the villagers.

After confirming that there were no problems, Xin Ye took out the prepared contract, the village chief read out the contents of the contract, and then everyone put their fingerprints on it.

Each household has a contract, and everyone in the family, young and old, male and female, must put their fingerprints on it, and there must be two copies.

So many contracts were definitely not written by Xin Ye. There are nearly a hundred households in the entire Dashan Village, and there are about two hundred contracts!

Yan Yiyi asked Xin Ye to write a template, and gave the paper of this era and the template to Lu Youyou, asking her to help with copying, which not only saved time and effort, but also earned points.

Lu Youyou was very happy that Yan Yiyi asked her for help, because Yan Yiyi often came to her for transactions. Her level and points had successfully climbed to the second place on the list. Although she was still not as good as Yan Yiyi, she was far ahead of the third place!
