The princess is farming with her baby, daddy, come find me soon

A lively dinner ended in the passing of time.

After clearing the dishes on the table, Uncle Xu took out a set of tea sets and poured a cup of tea for everyone.

After clearing his mouth with tea, Kong Su spoke first: "Miss Manzhu, the autumn harvest in Liuxi Village is almost finished. When will the planting of medicinal herbs begin?"

Li Dong also nodded seriously: "Miss Manzhu, Liudong Village is the same, we can prepare for planting at any time."

Gu Manzhu nodded, "No hurry, if you didn't come today, I would have asked you to come over in a few days."

"Please wait a bit before planting. Before planting, I need you to do one thing. Go buy match ash and rice husks, as well as various animal manure from your village. Of course, you don't have to do it yourself. You can hire a few smart people to buy them."

A group of people looked at each other, not understanding why all these were being acquired, but they subconsciously followed orders and did not ask.

"Okay, girl, after the acquisition, what are you going to do with these things?"

"After you finish the acquisition, come back to Shangshan Village and I will teach you how to do it."

After hearing this, the people present didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded.

After finishing the business, the atmosphere relaxed and everyone talked about the attitudes of the tenant farmers and the conditions of the fields in their respective villages.

After hearing that there were a few tenant farmers who had bad attitudes and were lazy, Gu Manzhu told them to go back and not to use them anymore.

"Planting is dependent on the weather, not to mention that we are growing medicinal herbs, which is a serious matter. If the attitude of the farmers we recruit is not good, we will simply not use them. What we lack the most is people!"

"Yes, everything is up to you, girl!"

Gu Manzhu looked at Li Huai who had been sitting next to her and listening attentively to what the adults said, and suddenly remembered that she had said before that she would ask someone to teach him to read. It was too late to start studying at this age and it could not be delayed any longer.

He stretched out his hand, which was a few shades paler than before, and waved to Li Huai and Xiao Lizi. The brother and sister looked at their parents, and when they saw that their parents nodded, they walked up to Gu Manzhu.

Gu Manzhu reached out and took Xiao Lizi in her arms, "How about you two go to school?"

The Li couple suddenly looked up.

Chen wanted to say something, but was suppressed by Li Dong's hand.

Xiao Lizi blinked and asked innocently, "School? Is it a place where my brother can study? Can Xiao Lizi go too?"

Gu Manzhu looked at Li Huai next to her. He didn't say anything, but his eyes were shining brightly.

He said softly, "Yes, it is a place where you brothers and sisters can study. Of course, you can go, little Lizi."

Suddenly Li Huai refused: "Aunt Manzhu, I don't need to go to the school, Xiao Lizi can go."

When Xiao Lizi heard this, he became anxious: "Xiao Lizi doesn't need to go. Brother has to go. Brother goes!"

As he spoke, tears began to fall.

Gu Manzhu sighed, "Don't cry, little Lizi, let's all go. You and your brother can go together, okay?"

Little Lizi was sobbing.

"But, but the school tuition is very expensive, and Xiao Lizi has no money."

Gu Manzhu hugged her and said, "Aunt Manzhu is rich. You and your brother should study hard so that you can repay me in the future. Don't you think so?"

The naive little Lizi nodded subconsciously. What Aunt Manzhu said was right!

Li Huai, who had just finished speaking and fell silent, said, "Aunt Manzhu, my sister and I are going to school!"

After saying that, he took Xiao Lizi and bowed deeply to Gu Manzhu.

Mr. and Mrs. Li stood up with tears in their eyes and knelt behind their child.

This made Gu Manzhu laugh and cry.

"Hurry up, what are you doing!"

After pulling everyone up, Gu Manzhu looked at Li Dong.

"You can take advantage of your free time now when you are not growing herbs to ask around and see if there are any private schools. Don't worry about the tuition fees, I'll take care of it."

Li Dong resisted the urge to refuse and agreed.

"it is good."

"Going to school is a good thing, be happy."

"Ok!"

After a few days, the main house was full of people again.

"Miss Manzhu, I have basically bought all the match ash, rice husks, and dung of various livestock in the village."

"It's the same in the village where I live. Rice husks and match ash are things they don't want, so they are cheap, 1 catties for 3 cent. But the price of feces is more expensive, 1 cent for catties."

Gu Manzhu, who was sitting on the main seat, nodded: "Have you counted how many kilograms were collected?"

"In Liuxi Village, we collected more than 4000 kilograms of rice husks, more than 2500 kilograms of match ash, and more than 2000 kilograms of feces."

Li Dong waited for Kong Su to finish speaking before continuing.

"The amount collected in Liudong Village will be a little less than that in Liuxi Village, but not much less."

"We collected the most in Shangshan Village. We collected more than 6000 kilograms of rice husks, more than 4000 kilograms of match ash, and more than 5000 kilograms of manure."

Xu Bo said as he looked at the data summarized by the hired people.

"Almost. These are enough for this year. How is the autumn harvest in your respective villages?"

Feng Nan drank all the water in the teacup in one breath, "The autumn harvest in Liuxi Village is basically over."

"It's the same in Liudong Village. The fields have been harvested now, but the rented farmers will go down and pick up the fallen rice grains when they have time."

"Okay, this time you go back and ask the villagers in Daogan Village if they want to sell them." Gu Manzhu suddenly remembered that the medicinal herbs grown in reality were not like the temperature in her medicine bracelet space where the temperature was always constant.

Besides, winter is coming now. If we don’t take good insulation measures, the seeds may not germinate!

"Okay, I'll send someone to inquire when I get back."

Kong Su and Feng Nan both nodded.

"If the autumn harvest is almost done, then you can turn the land. Turn the land once first, and sprinkle rice husks and manure while turning the land for the second time. Turn the land thoroughly, and then sprinkle match ash on it."

"Okay, I'll go back today and have someone do this!"

The others all nodded.

"Uncle Xu, do we have enough silver?"

Gu Manzhu calculated that from the time she started to plant medicinal herbs until now, her expenses have not been enough to cover her expenses. If this continues, she will probably starve to death. No matter how huge her fortune is, it cannot be wasted like this.

"Miss Manzhu, the silver we have is enough to support our expenses, plus the new grain we harvested this year, it will be more than enough."

Gu Manzhu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

"Huayi Pavilion is already generating revenue, which is enough for us."

After saying that, her peach blossom eyes as bright as the moon looked at Li Dong.

"Li Huai and Xiao Lizi's private schooling needs to be arranged as soon as possible. I will pay for the tuition."

Li Dong replied in a deep voice: "Okay, I asked someone last time, I think there should be a solution."

"Okay, just keep it in mind. You can't delay studying. Remember to keep it in mind."

"Ah."
