Rumors about Shen Jinyao being a prodigal son kept coming out.

The people from the Shen family who were standing below were also very surprised.

They knew that Shen Jinyao used money to contract land, but they didn’t know that he had to contract so much?

There are actually one hundred acres of land.

Even if all the Shen family members come together, they can't cultivate so much land, right?

The reason why the villagers of Wuhe Village think Shen Jinyao is stupid is because the land in Wuhe Village is very worthless.

The only thing left here is the land.

Moreover, the land contracted by Shen Jinyao must be the grassland that has not been cultivated in Wuhe Village.

They really couldn't understand how a young lady could be so stupid.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Shen Jinyao signaled everyone to stop.

Shen Jinyao: "Fellow villagers, listen to me."

"The reason I contracted so much land is because I believe my seeds can be grown and I can sell the extra potatoes."

The villagers were stunned and kept whispering, "Is she that awesome?"

“Can you actually cultivate a hundred acres of land?”

"Not only that, but you can actually sell the rest?"

"Isn't she just bragging?"

"Is Miss Shen really not crazy?"

Shen Jinyao continued, "But everyone knows that we, the Shen family, cannot cultivate all this land alone."

"And we are not professional in farming, so I want to ask everyone to help the Shen family plant potatoes, just like we did when we built the house last time."

"Of course, some people might think I'm a landlord..."

When Shen Jinyao said this, the person who had just said that Shen Jinyao was the landlord's man quickly shut up.

Shen Jinyao completely guessed what they were thinking.

"But my idea is to enable everyone in Wuhe Village to grow potatoes, eat local potatoes, and earn money from growing potatoes."

“How do you make this money?”

"There are two options."

Shen Jinyao paused deliberately when she said this.

All the villagers fell silent. No one contradicted Shen Jinyao or made jokes anymore.

They were even anxiously waiting to see what choice Shen Jinyao would announce next.

Uncle Li looked at the people below and snorted coldly.

It turns out that money is the most effective.

Seeing that he had finally calmed down, Shen Jinyao continued, "One option is to learn how to grow potatoes from me this year. While you're learning, you'll be helping the Shen family farm."

"Not only do you not have to pay tuition, I will even pay you wages."

"Next spring, I will give you seeds and let you plant them."

"When you grow potatoes, you can keep them for yourself or sell them to me."

The villagers didn’t expect such a good thing to happen?

"The second option is to buy seeds from me and grow them yourself."

After hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Aunt Niu shouted at the top of her lungs, "Are these the only two options?"

Shen Jinyao: "Of course, you can also choose not to earn wages this year and not to plant potatoes."

"How are the wages calculated? How much do you sell the potato seeds for?"

Shen Jinyao: "As for wages, it's 20 wen a day for plowing the land, and 10 wen a day for planting potatoes."

"One pound and one ounce of potato seeds."

After Shen Jinyao finished speaking, the discussion below began.

Shen Jinyao said, "Give everyone a day to discuss today. Tomorrow, those who want to farm will go to the Shen family's door to register."

"If we hurry, we'll start plowing the land tomorrow."

After Shen Jinyao finished speaking, she ignored the villagers below and greeted the village chief and the elders.

Then he called the Shen family back.

They didn't know when Shen Jinyao left, nor did they care.

They urgently need to discuss it now.

The three families even brought their people back to hold a family meeting.

The last time this scene happened was when the village chief was elected.

After Shen Jinyao returned, she also held a meeting with the Shen family.

"When it comes to farming, our Shen family is just like everyone else. We can get paid for farming, or we can sell seeds and grow our own crops."

"Just sell me the potatoes you grow."

Shen Jinyao said this mainly to the master and aunt.

Everyone in the Shen family knew that the eldest master and mistress must have wanted to be the supervisor themselves.

Unexpectedly, Shen Jinyao asked the Shen family to be like the villagers, and they became unhappy instantly.

The master shook his sleeves and said, "Who would work for their own family? Do you want to enslave us?"

Shen Jinyao said, "Uncle should also know that I borrowed this money from the village chief."

"If you can't grow anything, you'll still have to pay for it. I have to treat everyone equally. Of course, if you don't want to go along with this, that's fine too. It's just that you don't have the money, right?"

Shen Jinyao's words were a bit harsh, but the expression on her face was so calm.

It makes people feel that this matter is not a big deal.

The master left angrily.

The eldest lady wanted to say something, but Shen Jinyao didn't give her a chance.

She said, "I need two accountants now, mainly to register the people who come to work every day and the money to be paid."

"Look, who wants to do it?"

Because of the master's misconduct just now, Shen Zhizheng didn't know what to say to ease the situation.

Hearing Shen Jinyao asking for the accountant, he said first: "I'll do it."

Shen Zhixue also said: "I'll come too."

"Okay, the accountant is also paid. You won't work for nothing."

Shen Jinyao looked at everyone else and continued, "The most important thing for our Shen family right now is to plant potatoes, and everyone must participate."

"After the potatoes are planted, we need people to harvest and sell them. This will be our Shen family's business from now on."

"But if the crops fail, not only will the money be wasted, but the Shen family will also have a hard time living a good life."

Most people are aware of Shen Jinyao's good intentions.

The third master, Shen Mingshan, looked at Shen Jinyao and said, "Jin'er, don't worry, your uncle will take care of everything. I support you on behalf of the third house."

Zong Cheng: "And us two brothers."

Meng Da: "And us."

Ma Liang: "And us."

……

Shen Jinyao couldn't help but feel relieved as she watched everyone express their opinions.

If the Shen family doesn't take the lead, it will probably be difficult for others to participate.

The happiest people were Qiuju, Dongmei and others.

This way they can get paid.

Shen Jinyao once found a few maids and told them that she wanted to save some money.

At that time, they didn't know how to save money.

After all, the Shen family only had a few taels of silver left.

That night was another sleepless night in Wuhe Village.

Every household went to bed late, and some families even discussed things until very late.

The thief who never entered Wuhe Village accidentally passed by here and thought something big had happened.

Seeing that the lights were still on so late, he quickly ran away.

The next day when Qiuju opened the door, she saw a lot of people standing outside.
