After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

Although Ye Qing and Ye Xiang were curious about what was in the box, they knew their limits and planned to ask again when they had the chance.

Old Man Ye and Mrs. Li were also happy. Liu Rui came in person and brought so many things with him. This showed his appreciation for Ye Xi and his respect for the Ye family.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ye Erlang gave the store two days off and brought mooncakes back to Xuzhou.

This year, Ye Erlang was inspired by egg yolk pastry and made several kinds of mooncakes. They were selling very well and everyone passing by would buy two kilograms to try.

Ye Erlang was tired after working for so many days without any rest.

This time when celebrating the holiday at home, Zhou was reluctant to let him do anything and just let him catch up on his sleep. The dark circles under his eyes were clearly visible.

As the weather turns cooler, the angelica dahurica on the mountain can be harvested.

Ye Qing’s mosquito coil workshop has stopped, but he is still collecting mugwort. He will store some materials and start work earlier next year.

The people in the workshop took their wages and went home, just in time for the family to harvest herbs.

Now every family has at least three acres of forest land, and the village has hired herbal farmers to bring people to harvest angelica and other herbs.

Take advantage of the good weather and prepare it simply so that you can sell it at a higher price.

The drug dealer who came to collect the medicinal materials this time was the same dealer from last year. The two sides have cooperated before, so business will be easier to negotiate this year.

The village head received the letter from Doctor Lin and took the villagers to sort out the prepared medicinal materials.

Fifty kilograms are packed in a bag, and when the drug dealer comes, he can weigh it directly.

The drug dealer came to the village the next day and brought some seeds to the villagers.

"Village head, would you like to plant some Panax notoginseng in your village next year? There are foreign enemies on the northern border who often harass our dynasty, and they need medicine to stop the bleeding."

The head of the village looked very different. "Boss, have you heard any news? Will there be a military disturbance?"

When Shopkeeper Hu saw that the headman's voice had changed, he hurried to comfort him.

"No, the one currently guarding the border is Lord Zhao, the Duke of the State. He is the god of war of the Great Zhou State. With him around, nothing will happen."

The head of the village put his worry down and thought about the war he had experienced when he was a child. His village had escaped the disaster by hiding in the mountains.

"Manager Hu, are you buying Panax notoginseng to ship to the border?"

"Yes, we have cooperation with the Zhao family army, and the Angelica dahurica we are collecting is also shipped there."

"Manager Hu, do you have any Panax notoginseng seeds? We can buy some. We can't help you with anything else, but we can do this."

The village head can make the decision alone. Tian Qi and his village have already planted the crops, and for the sake of a stable life in the future, they will not refuse.

After the two men reached an agreement, they led Manager Hu to purchase medicinal herbs in the village.

All the people brought by Manager Hu were acquaintances, and they were all familiar with weighing the medicinal materials in the village.

Ye Qing had nothing to do at home, so he took Wangcai and Heizi for a stroll in the village, chatting with people in the caravan and asking about the situation outside.

Shopkeeper Hu saw two sleek and brave big dogs from afar.

With an excited look on his face, he helped Li Zheng walk towards him, "Little girl, these two dogs are wolfhounds, they are really majestic."

Ye Qing fondly touched Wangcai and Heizi twice, "They are wolfhounds, very smart, and very human."

Shopkeeper Hu was watching from the side with envy, and he wanted to go and have a try as well.

It's just that Wangcai and Heizi are gentle to people they know, but fierce to strangers. As long as Hu gets close, they will bare their teeth at him.

"Miss Ye, I really like these two dogs. Excuse me, are you selling them? I'll pay a high price."

Before Ye Qing could react, Heizi became angry and rushed towards Shopkeeper Hu.

Woof woof woof~Woof woof woof~Woof woof woof

Wangcai was barking wildly beside him. Ye Qing couldn't understand what it was saying, but he felt that it must be swearing very dirty.

"Heizi, come back." Ye Qing shouted, stopping Heizi from biting Shopkeeper Hu.

Ye Qing stroked Heizi's head with amusement and comforted him, "Be good, I won't sell you. He is just teasing you. I can't bear to sell you."

Wangcai and Heizi grew up with the Ye family. Everyone in the family likes dogs and loves to play with them.

After a long time, they seem to be able to understand human speech. When Ye Qing is free, he will chat with them for a while.

Shopkeeper Hu was caught off guard and knocked to the ground, but fortunately Ye Qing shouted in time and he was not hurt.

Shopkeeper Hu felt a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that they could understand him.

"Shopkeeper Hu, Wangcai and Heizi are members of my family and I will not sell them." Ye Qing said solemnly.

Shopkeeper Hu touched his nose, still unwilling to give up. He just looked at Ye Qing's expression and didn't say anything in the end.

Ye Qing thought he had given up the idea, so he chatted with the village head and took Wangcai and Heizi to the workshop.

The more Manager Hu thought about it when he returned, the more he regretted it. He still liked the two wolfhounds. Having a few such smart and ferocious dogs on the business road could save him a lot of trouble.

The servant who followed Manager Hu saw him tossing and turning and unable to sleep, so he went up to him and said a few words.

Shopkeeper Hu clapped his hands, thinking it was a good idea. He praised the servant and this time he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The village has planted a lot of medicinal herbs this year, and the caravan estimates it will take four or five days to weigh them all.

Those who have sold their herbs are happily counting their money at home. As for the herbs in the forest, apart from helping to weed, they don't do much.

An acre of forest land can produce more herbs than an acre of grain.

Those who did not line up were a little worried, fearing that Manager Hu would confiscate all the goods and leave.

Several families who lived at the back of the line came to the village head and asked him to help check whether all the crops could be collected.

The head of the village was also very conscientious and brought the grapefruits he picked from the mountain to see Manager Hu.

Shopkeeper Hu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he could eat fruit in Kaoshan Village.

It was common for them to sleep in the open air on the road and eat dry food when they were hungry.

Fugui, the servant of Manager Hu, was very tactful. He took the pomelo from the head of the village, peeled it skillfully, and shared it between the two men.

"There are still some of these treasures in the village. Can you sell some to us? Our brothers have worked hard along the way. Let them have a taste of the fruit."

The village head said nonchalantly, "If you want to eat, send someone to your house to get it. You don't have to pay. You won't be able to eat much anyway."

Shopkeeper Hu doesn't like to owe favors to others. He believes that if money can solve the problem, it's not a big deal.

"No, we have a lot of people here, so we need a lot. Are there any other fruits in the village? We want them all."

"There are also pomegranates and pears. These are not expensive and every household grows them."

"I really envy you. You have everything you grow at home. You can just go to the fields and pick whatever you want to eat. Unlike us, we can't even eat meat on the road."

When the head of the village heard this, he felt proud in his heart, but he did not show it on his face and he was still humble in words.

After chatting for a while, the village head did not forget the purpose of his visit.

"Manager Hu, can you collect all the herbs in the village?"

Manager Hu calculated and replied to the head of the village, "No problem, Baizhi doesn't take up any space, you can take all the ones in the village."

The village head was delighted and praised the idea. He went back to greet the villagers and asked every household to send some fruit to Hu.
