Chapter 295 Thirty shops
Chapter 295 Thirty Shops
The rule of King Li’s fiefdom is that half of the land under her name must be used to grow food, so she must have more than 1,500 mu of land to grow food.
The people in the government said that she bought some land not long ago. If the wasteland cannot be opened up, she doesn’t have to grow food.
However, she recruited enough people, and it is completely possible to grow rice with a total of 1,500 mu of land.
Last year, people in the village got a lot of high-yield rice, so this year the people working in the fields are particularly motivated, and they all want to harvest high-yield rice in the autumn harvest.
There are still many people who like sweet potatoes. They think the taste of sweet potatoes is also good, and the yield per mu is also high. They asked Nangong Anshan to buy sweet potato vines.
Of course Nangong Anshan agreed, as long as she came to buy sweet potato vines, she would give them all.
She also grows a lot of sweet potatoes in her own field.
Although she won’t eat much, it will have other uses when the time comes.
Of course, there are a lot of people from other villages in Liuye Village, and the high rice yield must not be hidden from them.
After they knew that there was high-yield rice, they went to Zhou Lizheng immediately and said they wanted to buy it.
Zhou Lizheng knew that Nangong Anshan might not have many seeds, so he never agreed, and the people from other villages kept begging him.
Zhou Li was being harassed and had no choice but to go to Nangong Anshan.
After Nangong Anshan found out, she took the initiative to call people together.
At this time, Nangong Anshan looked at the people from other villages in front of her in the open space, and said, “It’s normal for you to want high-yield seeds. I can provide them to you, but the price is very expensive, at twenty yuan a catty.”
“If you want to grow, go to my door and line up. There are already people waiting for you at the door. Each family can buy up to five catties. Is there any more?”
“You are also not allowed to resell it to other people at a high price. If I find one, I will permanently disqualify him from working in my field.”
There is no rice in the space, only ready-made husked rice.
However, she has planted high-yield rice in space many times before, and has saved a lot of seeds, enough to sell to these villagers.
Twenty Wen a catty, if it was in the past, they would definitely think it was very expensive.
But now they have a fixed income, and they have been paid several times, so they don’t think it is expensive.
So everyone had no objection, and after the breakup, they all went to Nangong Anshan’s house to buy seeds.
The people from other villages also spread the news of Nangong Anshan’s seeds back to their own villages, and the villages spread the word to the villages. For half a month, people came to buy seeds, which made Nangong Anshan earn a lot of money.
First day of May
During this period, because the military has been keeping secrets, many people have maintained a negative attitude towards the battle situation.
So Nangong Anshan went to the city to pick up leaks when she had nothing to do, and bought another ten shops in her hands. Now she has thirty shops under her name.
At this time, Nangong Anshan frowned when she saw the letter sent by Dugu Huanxu.
Yang Ruolan said: “Ashan, what’s wrong? Is the war not going well?”
Nangong Anshan said: “The battle went smoothly. His Royal Highness Prince Ming and Prince Li intend to spread the news that he has explosives to the ears of other princes.”
“That’s why the other princes didn’t dare to start a war against King Li. They just watched from the sidelines, for fear that King Li would use the explosives on him, and the battle went very smoothly.”
“Some princes surrounded Li Wang’s fief after listening to the advice of other princes, and they even retreated when they heard that Li Wang’s fief is very powerful.”
“King Yong originally wanted to attack us, but King Qi attacked him first, leaving him temporarily unable to take care of the war with His Royal Highness King Li.”
“His Royal Highness King Li has even sent people to invade King Ming’s fief and occupy five cities. King Ming’s fief is very small, with only ten cities in total. A Xu said that King Li intends to take over King Ming’s fief in one go.”
Yang Ruolan said: “Then this is a good thing, why do you feel that you are still very nervous?”
Nangong Anshan said: “I heard a saying before, it is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to defend the world. I am worried that His Royal Highness King Li will not be able to defend it.”
Moreover, King Qi’s army was able to defeat the army in the capital, which shows that he has some skills. He knows that King Li’s fief has such powerful weapons. He probably will attack King Li after finishing Yong King.
Yang Ruolan said: “Ashan, you have to have confidence in your explosives. Such a powerful weapon will definitely help His Royal Highness King Li feel like a fish in water.”
“Yes, I know.”
Anyway, A Xu keeps letting her know the battle situation. If the situation is really unfavorable to King Li, she will find a way to create some other useful weapons.
Nangong Anshan no longer struggled, because her paper-making workshop was almost completed.
Although she had already stockpiled a lot of loom parts, she thought about it carefully and decided that it would be better to build a paper workshop first.
Papermaking needs a lot of plant raw materials. She has planted a lot in the space and in the ground before. Before the ground is mature, she can only use the ones in her space.
She built a very large paper workshop this time, occupying a full 30 acres of land, and even left room for expansion. There are ten storage rooms, which can store a lot of raw materials.
Although Hao Yusheng said that he could only bring fifty people here, but Dugu Huanxu knew that Nangong Anshan was going to build a paper workshop, so he sent another fifty people over, and Hao Yusheng selected some people from the village. That’s why the paper workshop was built so quickly.
Papermaking needs smart people to do it, so while Nangong Anshan was preparing the machine, she also asked all the people working in her house to gather in the open space.
The villagers of Liuye Village were all discussing happily.
“What is the reason why the little boss called us this time?”
“What else could be the reason? Don’t you know that a workshop has been built? It must be selected from among us to work in the workshop.”
“Wow, this is really great. I’ve long wanted to work in a workshop. It’s so comfortable without being exposed to the sun and rain.”
“Yeah, but I don’t know if we can choose it. Papermaking workshop, it sounds difficult to make paper. I’m worried that I’m so stupid that I won’t be able to learn it.”
“That’s right, if you say that, I probably won’t be selected.”
…
Seeing that everyone was discussing, Nangong Anshan said loudly: “Everyone, I think you already know why I called you here. That’s right, my paper-making workshop has already been built, so I need a lot of manpower .”
“But the papermaking process is complicated, with more than a hundred procedures in total, so I need a lot of smart people.”
“If you are willing to come to work in the workshop, those who are over fifteen years old and under thirty years old, and have studied, you can come to me for the exam.”
