The Daily Life of a Rich Peasant's Boy in the Imperial Examination
Chapter 1189 The Stout and Handsome Maid
The onlookers can’t understand the list, but they can understand what people say.
When they heard that the yield per mu was 600 kilograms, the whole scene exploded.
Even if you see it with your own eyes, you still don't believe it.
Crowd member A pulled one of the yamen runners who was maintaining order and asked, "Er Yazi, what did Lord Sun just say? He said one acre of rice can produce 600 kilograms. Is that a joke?"
Eryazi, who was maintaining order, looked at the onlooker A helplessly.
Fellow villagers, from childhood to adulthood, respecting the old and loving the young is a traditional virtue of the Daqian people.
I had no choice but to explain patiently, "Master, is Lord Sun someone who likes to joke? He's a senior official, and his word is his bond. He said exactly what he meant. How could he dare to lie in front of so many people in broad daylight?"
Crowd member B disagreed and said, "Humph, you idiot, stop trying to trick us. Officials have two mouths. Don't we know who the officials are?"
Not to mention the officials, even the little yamen runner Eryazi changed completely after becoming a yamen runner.
Humph, the fox is relying on the tiger's power to bully others. Don't think that we, the people, don't know the moral character of the officials.
What else could the yamen runner Eryazi say? He could only continue to maintain order and remain silent.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Never argue with the onlookers.
The onlooker C is none other than Widow Li, a newly joined fan girl who has mysterious confidence in Sun Shan.
He swore confidently, "If Lord Sun says 600 catties, then it must be 600 catties. It's absolutely correct! Lord Sun is a man of his word. Humph, there are a pile of sacks there, can't you see? Don't say 600 catties per acre. If Lord Sun says 6000 catties per acre, then it must be 6000 catties."
The onlookers really wanted to refute Widow Li, but considering that her son had recently graduated from high school and was in the limelight, it was difficult for them to retort.
This Widow Li has been here since she brought a few baskets of worthless vegetables to thank Lord Sun last time and was received by Lord Sun.
She kept praising Lord Sun all day long, and outsiders thought Lord Sun was her son.
Bah, so what if she praises me? Her son is definitely not as lucky as Lord Sun to become an official.
The onlookers secretly criticized Widow Li, and then continued to eat melons.
Onlooker Ding asked the onlooker next to him, "Will you buy guano for the spring plowing next year?"
Wu, the onlooker nearby, shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I'll have to go home and ask and discuss it. If it works, I'll definitely buy it."
Although they saw with their own eyes the high yield of Mr. Sun's rice fields, the people were still very cautious about the three mu of land on which they depended for their livelihood. They were afraid that if they used innovative farming methods, they would end up with nothing.
Who will he cry to then?
Even if Lord Sun doesn't farm, he is still supported by the court. His family relies on the income from the land every year. He can't afford to take a small risk for a big gain.
Many people think the same as the onlookers, and they take things one step at a time.
Even if I know that this thing is good, I dare not try it easily.
Because the bad consequences are unbearable, the risk factor is almost zero.
Sun Shan knew long ago that the masses would not all follow the trend and buy bird droppings, but that didn’t matter. As long as a small number of people did so, sooner or later everyone would do the same.
The group continued to move forward, watching the men continue to harvest rice.
With strength in numbers, the five acres of land used for guano treatment were quickly mowed.
Master Zhang followed the previous steps, bagging, weighing, and recording everything.
Master Zhang passed the data to Sun Shan and said happily, "Master, the yield of each of the five acres of land here is not low, just like the previous piece of land. Each acre produces more than 600 kilograms. Master, this is a great joy."
County Magistrate Wang, Chief Secretary Wu, and Instructor Deng continued to chop data, secretly gasping in amazement.
The previous five acres were very productive, and the new five acres are still very productive.
So once again it proves that guano is useful.
Mr. Wang walked forward quietly. Because he was the younger brother of County Magistrate Wang, everyone in the yamen knew him and let him pass.
When I saw the newly registered data, I was so excited that I almost shouted out loud.
Apart from the Sun family, he was the only one present who had visited the back mountain of Da Niao Village.
If bird droppings really have such miraculous effects, and there is so much bird droppings in the back mountain, even if you sell them at one cent per pound, you will make a fortune.
Emma, no, after I go back today, I must visit Lord Sun late at night and cooperate with him to sell bird droppings.
This is a great opportunity to make a fortune, don't miss it.
Mr. Wang looked at Sun Shan as if he were looking at a mountain of gold and silver.
Emma, their county magistrate is so powerful. He can find a way to make money in such a remote place. He is really an amazing person.
Xingyazi said that Sun Shan had only inspected most of Yuanlu County, and there was still a small part that he had not set foot on.
Hehe, we have to find an opportunity to let Lord Sun travel around. Maybe he will discover some business opportunities or a good way to make a fortune.
Mr. Wang thought so, and so did the onlookers, Rich Businessman A, Rich Businessman B, and Rich Businessman C.
How can you miss the opportunity to make a fortune that is right in front of you?
Rich Merchant A whispered, "Second brother, third brother, what do you think? This bird droppings is really useful. If we sell it, we can make a penny per pound and make a fortune."
An acre of land requires a lot of bird droppings, so a family has to buy a lot.
Tsk tsk~~It can not only be used for farming, but also for growing vegetables, fruit trees and flowers.
With this calculation, even if the profit is small and the sales volume is high, a lot of money can be made.
Rich Businessman A glanced at Sun Shan secretly, as if he was looking at a mountain of gold and silver.
Rich businessman B certainly knows that selling guano is a good business, but they...
Rich Merchant B hesitated and said, "Brother, last time we gave our maid away, we offended Lord Sun. Will he still let us sell her?"
Even though so much time had passed and they had apologized, Lord Sun did not cause them any trouble.
But after all, I have offended him, so this deal may be difficult to negotiate.
Rich businessman C saw Sun Shan talking seriously to Instructor Deng.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Brother, second brother, I think Lord Sun is a broad-minded person and should have forgotten what happened before. Lord Sun is a Jinshi after all, so why would he bother with small people like us? I think we should find a good day to visit Lord Sun again and ask him for a favor."
After hearing this, Rich Businessman B nodded repeatedly.
Rich Merchant A was silent for a while, then said, "Why don't we find a beautiful and strong maid for Lord Sun? As long as this maid can make Lord Sun happy, we will have a backer in the future."
This is indeed a good idea, to bribe Lord Sun in a way that suits his own interests.
Haha, this will make things easier in the future.
It is difficult to accomplish something, but it is easy to destroy it.
In a place like the yamen where all the big and small devils exist, if something goes wrong, their business will be difficult.
Rich businessman B and rich businessman C looked at rich businessman A with sparkling eyes.
He agreed and said, "Brother, this is a good idea. We have to go to Chenzhou Prefecture before the New Year and look for one there. Haha, this time we must find a strong and beautiful maid."
The three wealthy businessmen smiled triumphantly.
Mr. Sun’s hobby is quite unique, but nothing is difficult for one who sets his mind to it.
Haha, no matter how high the price is, I must find it.
