Xiao Yan did not treat her as a naive ten-year-old girl, but treated her as an equal.

After spending so many days in the Zhou family, he could see who the backbone of this family was.

Zhou Lingling was stunned. "You want to discuss business with me?"

She has always been the one negotiating business with others, and now some people are looking for her to negotiate business.

How strange.

"I wonder what business Mr. Xiao wants to discuss with me?"

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that Miss Zhou has a good seed that can yield a thousand catties per mu."

His tone was very calm, but his heart was as turbulent as the waves.

The yield per mu is 1,000 kilograms.

It sounds like a dream.

The best rice seeds in Dayuan today only yield 300 kilograms per mu.

Where on earth did this little girl get the high-quality seeds that yield 1,000 kilograms per mu?

Or maybe this is a complete scam...

The other person's eyes suddenly turned cold, and Zhou Lingling felt as if the man she saw at this moment was the man covered in blood but with a fierce look like a wolf that she first saw on the mountain.

"So what?" Zhou Lingling was not afraid.

Because she really does.

Xiao Yan looked at her and said calmly, "If that's the case, I would like to purchase this fine seed from Miss Zhou. If you have any conditions, please feel free to state them."

"That's probably not possible."

Xiao Yan just picked up the teacup and wanted to wait for the little girl to think about it.

He tried to find ways to get her gold, silver, fertile land, and shops, but he didn't expect to hear a decisive rejection.

The teacup was placed gently on the solid wood table, making a subtle sound.

But the atmosphere in the room seemed to change in an instant.

Fei Yu saw that the situation was not good and immediately advised, "Miss Zhou, my master really needs these seeds. Don't you want to open a shop? You can choose a shop in Yunshui County or the capital."

"Or how much silver do you want? We can discuss it!"

Don't refuse without even thinking about it.

For the sake of the Northern Army, the master can even use his own life as bait. Even if Miss Zhou saved the master's life, it is hard to say whether she can save her own life.

Faced with Feiyu's dissuasion, Zhou Lingling still shook her head.

"No."

Just as Xiao Yan's brows were furrowed and Fei Yu looked worried, she continued, "Because I don't have a large number of good seeds to sell right now."

Fei Yu let out a heavy breath, "Since there isn't anything, Miss Zhou, why didn't you tell me earlier..."

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the death gaze shifted to him.

"That's not what you said just now."

The master's calm voice sounded in Feiyu's ears, scaring him so much that he shuddered.

The memory of the dead suddenly came back. Just now, he rushed in in a hurry and told his master:

"Master! The Northern Army is saved. Miss Zhou has a high-quality seed that yields a thousand kilograms per mu! If we can bring this seed back to the Northern Frontier, we won't have to rob everywhere anymore..."

Fei Yu at this moment: "...Master, I was wrong."

He is very skilled at kneeling down and admitting his mistakes.

If it really doesn't work, I can kowtow to my master.

Zhou Lingling looked at the two of them and immediately sorted things out in her mind.

Fei Yu must have heard what she said to her mother just now, and then turned around and told Xiao Yan.

"Brother Feiyu is not wrong. I do have some high-yield varieties, but they're still in the testing phase. I'll be able to harvest the first batch of crops in about two months. Only then will we know the yield per mu and start selling them."

There are many kinds of seeds left by Fuguier's previous host, but the quantity is not large, each kind weighs only about one or two hundred kilograms.

Potatoes are grown as tubers. One potato can produce about ten buds, and it takes two hundred kilograms to plant one acre of land.

So she asked Fuguier to plant a crop of potatoes in the space, and there were still most of them left, which she planned to plant on her own land.

Their family has three acres of paddy fields and three acres of dry land. The paddy fields are still managed by the old patriarch, and she uses the three acres of dry land to grow the three crops in the wing room.

Hearing Zhou Lingling's words, Feiyu straightened his shoulders and said, "Master, we can wait for two months!"

It just so happens that the master doesn't have to rush back to the Northern Frontier and can still recuperate for two months. The old hospital director was talking about letting the master recuperate for two months.

Zhou Lingling: "..." Wait another two months? Not leaving?

Are you kidding? If you don’t leave, what if someone comes to attack me with a knife next time?

Perhaps the anxiety in her eyes was too obvious, Xiao Yan actually nodded.

"Then wait another two months."

Zhou Lingling: "It's not Big Brother. I'm not sure myself. What if I let Master Xiao wait in vain?"

Xiao Yan, who had a stern expression just now, actually smiled.

"It's okay, I believe Miss Zhou."

He added, "Xiao's injuries are indeed not suitable for traveling."

Feiyu knelt there, nodding his head continuously: "Yes, yes, Miss Zhou, my master's injuries haven't healed yet!"

Zhou Lingling: “…” You might as well not believe me.

Walking out of the main room, a faint light flashed in Zhou Lingling's eyes.

A large amount of food is needed.

Who exactly is Xiao Yan?

the other side,

Feiyu also asked this question: "Master, what kind of person is Miss Zhou?"

Why is it so puzzling?

She is obviously just a little farm girl, why is she so mysterious and has some high-yield variety?

"I went to the room next to Miss Zhou before. There were several rows of wooden shelves inside, and they were indeed filled with crops I had never seen before..."

He frowned and thought hard, not realizing that the person in front of him also frowned.

"You have nothing to do, so don't hang around in other people's houses."

"Ah?" Fei Yu was stunned. "Master, I'm not wandering around..."

He had seen Miss Zhou and others running into that room these days, and closing the door mysteriously after entering. He was worried about some danger, so he went to investigate.

(Zhou Yun: That’s what my sister said about maintaining the temperature and humidity in the room!)

****

On the second day,

Zhou Lingling picked out ten potatoes that had sprouted well from her wooden trough.

Chen asked her, "My daughter, why are these beans so round and not so big in winter? How do you grow them?"

The beans they grow here are not this big.

Zhou Lingling patiently explained, "Mom, this is called potato, nicknamed potato. It is a plant of the Solanaceae family, not a legume, so it is different from beans."

Chen: “…” She didn’t understand, but that didn’t stop her from working.

"How do you grow these little potatoes?"

Zhou Lingling found the family's cutting board and knife, and under Chen's terrified gaze, she told her, "Mom, planting potatoes actually has three steps. The first step is to select intact potatoes and divide them into four pieces of similar size, making sure each piece has at least one main and two secondary buds. Then, place them in a moist, warm environment. After a few days, the potatoes will sprout."

"The second step is to place the sprouted potato pieces into the pre-dug ridges, then cover them with fine soil. Water the soil thoroughly every three days. After ten days, you will see the potato sprouts breaking through the soil."

"The last step is to wait for the potato seedlings to slowly break through the soil, and then apply wood ash to the soil once a month."

As he spoke, Zhou Lingling picked up a knife and began to cut up the sprouted potato in his hand.
