The factory officially went into production, and Wen Xing and Wen Yu left Wenjiabao again. In fact, Jing Yao didn't want to disturb his brother-in-law from studying, but he was still very happy that his father-in-law took the initiative to call his brother-in-law back to support him.

After seeing them off, Jing Yao welcomed an unexpected person.

"Uncle Jiang, you're here." Jing Yao received the news that someone came to pick up the goods. He was wondering who it was, so he hurried to the warehouse. He was a little surprised when he saw the person. The man who claimed to be Manager Zhou from the Zhou family had just been sent away in the morning and had made some harsh remarks before leaving. Before noon, Manager Jiang arrived.

Manager Jiang had already walked around the factory and seen all the open areas before he was led to the warehouse. He was still surprised that Jing Yao had built such a large factory. Seeing him coming, he said with emotion, "Second Master Wen told me that you built a factory and slightly expanded the production scale. This is not just a little bit, you have an area of ​​​​four or five acres, you are an incredible young man."

Jing Yao said modestly, "Uncle Jiang, you are too polite. Now we have five acres of land built. There is a lot of land in the countryside, so it is not worth much."

"Your personality is like what your father-in-law taught you." Seeing him like that, Manager Jiang laughed and said.

Jing Yao did not refute, and asked with a smile: "How long will Uncle Jiang be out this time?"

"I'm a short-term trader, hanging around the Jiangnan area, coming back and forth every few months, so it's not a long time." Manager Jiang said.

Seeing that he didn't look too embarrassed, Jing Yao said directly, "Two days ago, a man who claimed to be the Zhou family's manager came to order canned food from me. He spoke in a very loud tone. My place is small and can't accommodate him, so I had to let him go back first."

After hearing what he said, Manager Jiang was not angry at all. Instead, he patted Jing Yao on the shoulder and said, "You are really fearless, but your can is not as valuable as before."

"Oh, what do you mean, Uncle Jiang?" Jing Yao asked in confusion.

Manager Jiang smiled mysteriously and told the whole story of going to Beijing. He was not a manager that the master liked, and he was not taken seriously this time. However, the popularity of canned food made him catch the master's attention. His sons also had their own talents. He rushed to Wenjiabao in a hurry to settle the matter, but he didn't expect that someone was one step ahead of him.

Jing Yao knew that he was dragged into the vortex of fighting, but he still did not waver in his decision, "Uncle Jiang, I can't supply my canned food exclusively, and I won't make it something that only the rich can afford."

Manager Jiang nodded, indicating that he understood and did not force it. Although the Zhou family was powerful, Wen Xing was not someone to be trifled with. He would not get into trouble over a mere canning factory. "I came here this time to pick up a batch of goods first."

"How much do you need? I'll ask someone to prepare it." Jing Yao nodded. It would be easy if he just wanted the goods. This was what they had agreed on in advance, so he asked.

"Five thousand cans."

"So many." Jing Yao was puzzled.

"Haha." Manager Jiang said with a smile: "My eldest son will follow the master on a long journey, which may take a year at the shortest and a year and a half at the longest. They are a big ship, and there are many people and the consumption is high. And this is just the beginning of the order. Our Zhou family will still order more canned food later."

"I see. I wonder where we are going this time and which islands we are passing by." Jing Yao thought about his follow-up plans. There were also some high-yield grain seeds that he would like to get back.

"What are you looking for?" Manager Jiang asked. He knew that the Jingyao factory was built because of the seeds from overseas bought at the dock. The Zhou family had also planted those rare seeds, but most of them did not grow well and the land was left uncultivated, so they gave up.

"I want all these plants. It would be best if I could find all of them, but finding some is fine as well." Jing Yao took out a booklet with pictures and text introductions to some plants.

Manager Jiang took it and flipped through it for a while before saying, "I've seen all of these before."

"Really. Corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes." Jing Yao was extremely surprised. He got the things he wanted most so easily.

The things were in Shangjing. After the Zhou family found out that these seeds were difficult to grow, they no longer cared about them and piled them all in the warehouse. I don’t know if they are still useful. Manager Jiang was also happy to do this favor and said directly: "There should be some left from what we brought back last time. If you want me to get them for you."

"I'm willing to pay a higher price to buy it." Jing Yao shook his head. He knew that free things were the most expensive, just like his seeds.

"There are some in Zhou's farm, but they were brought back two years ago. I don't know if they can still be grown." Manager Jiang explained.

"No matter how it turns out after I buy it, I won't blame the Zhou family." Jing Yao didn't care. As long as the seeds were alive in his hands, he would not be afraid of not being able to plant them. He had the confidence.

"Use canned food to pay it back." Manager Jiang had no choice but to say this when he saw that he was determined.

"make a deal."

A deal was reached and both parties were very satisfied with the happy outcome. After signing the contract, Manager Jiang left with the canned food he wanted, while Jing Yao brought news to the factory and added another large order to continue production.

After nearly 20 days of growth, the true leaves of the seedlings have been fully formed and can be transplanted. At this time, the seedlings have grown very strong and there is no need to worry about their survival rate.

On a morning after a rain, villagers who wanted to grow Jing Yao's new species came to the gate of Jing Yao's yard alone or in groups of three or four, taking their tools and waiting.

Jing Yao heard that it was going to rain last night, so he got up early in the morning and waited at home. Unexpectedly, when he opened the yard, there were already quite a few people standing outside, all wearing short clothes suitable for working in the fields.

"Good morning, uncles and aunts." Jing Yao greeted everyone with a smile.

"It's getting late, you can still sleep." A dark-faced man patted Jing Yao's shoulder and joked with a smile.

"Old Four, please be gentle." A man next to him who looked very similar to Uncle Jing Yao frowned.

The man who had just patted Jing Yao's shoulder seemed to remember something when he heard this, and took his hand away embarrassedly.

Jing Yao knew that this Fourth Uncle Wen was a tall man, which was rare in the south, and was also famous for his strength. He had helped out for a day when his factory broke ground. He was a straightforward man. It was his brother who called him. Although he was not as tall and strong as him, he could calm him down. Knowing that Third Uncle was afraid of ruining himself, he spoke up to save him.

"Third uncle, don't look at me as not as tall as fourth uncle, I am actually very strong." Since the last time he met his third grandfather, Jing Yao changed the way he addressed the Wen family members in the village who were closer to his mother.

Uncle Wen was also very happy to hear this. "Brother San, have you forgotten that Yao has been running in the mountains for many years? He is not one of those people who looks strong but is weak inside."

After hearing this, Third Uncle Wen didn't say anything else, but his eyes looked at Jing Yao even softer.

Jing Yao took his men to the backyard to see the various seedlings being cultivated in different areas. He also put up a sign next to it, which showed how the plants would grow in the future, what kind of terrain they would be suitable for planting on, what the fruits would look like, and what dishes they could be used to make.

Most of the vegetables in this yard are peppers. The factory has started producing chili sauce, canned food and sausages containing peppers. The villagers are familiar with it, but some of them have never appeared before and everyone is looking at them curiously.

Especially the pumpkins that can grow more than a dozen on a vine, a long bunch of tomatoes, garlic and onions planted in the soil, cucumbers that need a trellis, and carrots that are the same as radishes but red in color.

Wen Yu painted the picture according to Jing Yao's description. The pigments were provided by Jing Yao, and the rest was given to Wen Yu as compensation, so he painted very seriously. In this era without cameras, he was able to paint the appearance of various plants in a pretty good way. Everyone had seen real peppers, so they were all amazed by the painting.

“These things are so colorful.”

"Yes, those Euros dare to eat anything."

"We are not bad either, but we just don't have this thing here. During the disaster years, we ate tree bark and soil, so why are we afraid of this thing?"

"You dare to eat those poisonous mushrooms in the mountains."

“When I was starving to death, I would eat poisonous mushrooms.”

Jing Yao watched them surrounding and bickering, but ignored them. He was waiting for Wen Qun to come, so he moved a table and chairs to prepare for him. He and Li were busy inside getting ready.

When Wen Qun came, he was very happy to see so many people. He had invested a lot of time and energy in both the seeds and the factory, so he naturally hoped that both would be good. "Ayao, I'm ready here, so we can start."

"it is good."

Seeing Wen Qun sitting at the table and looking at him obediently, Jing Yao felt soft-hearted. Seeing that most people had arrived, he gathered them together for a simple training and then began to explain the conditions for distributing the seedlings.

"Everyone knows that my seedlings come from far away. It's not easy. I spent a lot of effort to cultivate these seedlings. I also soaked them in special drugs. Naturally, the price will not be too low."

Now the seedlings have grown out and are big and strong. This is the best time to transplant them. If you keep them for a while longer and the roots grow too much, it will be bad to transplant them. Even so, you can't just take the seedlings out for others to plant.

"So those who need to plant can come here to get them, to prevent those who don't take them carefully from ruining them. Everyone needs to prove how many acres of land they have left at home and how many plants they plan to take, and sign and promise that if all the seedlings are grown, they don't have to pay. If there is one missing, you need to ask me or Wen Qun to check what the reason is. You can first see how to grow each seedling and what kind of environment is more suitable. After everyone has received pre-job training, they can decide the number of seedlings to take."

"You still have to pay for this."

"That's right, there's no guarantee that you won't die."

"Hey, if you can't even grow such big seedlings, what are you going to plant?"

"That's right. The climate is so good, but you can't grow crops here. Let's see what you'll do in the next few years."

Fourth Uncle Wen stepped forward and walked in front of Jing Yao and said, "Young man Yao, I want to plant two acres of peppers, three acres of pumpkins, and six acres of cucumbers."

Jing Yao calculated the number of seedlings he would need based on the land he wanted to plant, and Wen Qun stopped writing the deed when he finished speaking.

Jing Yao picked up the paper and blew on it. When the ink was dry, he handed the paper to Fourth Uncle Wen: "Fourth Uncle, take a look."

Fourth Uncle Wen didn't hesitate to take it, took a look at it, and then handed it to Third Uncle Wen. Third Uncle Wen resignedly took it, took a look at it, and then nodded at him.

"Okay, Yao boy." Uncle Wen said with a big white smile, then he waved his hand and wrote down his name.

Jing Yao also nodded, "To prevent accidents, five seedlings per acre will be added. This is not written in the contract, just take it yourself."

After both parties confirmed it, Uncle Wen went to the head of the village to get the seedlings. He brought a winnowing basket, put the seedlings on it and went to the field.

Uncle Wen San followed closely behind. He asked for more than Uncle Si and asked for five acres of seedlings. After signing the contract, his two sons came to pick the seedlings.

Everyone who came later was given the seedlings only after they had confirmed and signed their names. The seedlings went very quickly and were all taken up in the morning. Everyone knew that Jingyao's factory was already doing very well, and many people came to buy goods every day, so they naturally believed in him.

The things that grow from these seedlings will be valuable and will definitely be sold at a high price, so they naturally cannot be wrong. Many people who were originally on the sidelines followed the trend and bought some seedlings, so they were consumed faster than expected.

Later, when those people still wanted some, they found that they were sold out. Fortunately, Jing Yao told them in time that there would be another batch of seedlings in two months, and asked them to come early then.

After a busy morning, people gradually dispersed. The village head's seedlings were the last to be planted. He helped Jing Yao until he finished his work before planting his own.

"Thank you for your hard work, uncle. Drink some water first." Jing Yao came over with a bowl of water and handed it to the head of the village.
