Chapter 1081 Unknown News
Wu Jiang has been trained over the years, and has always been doing work involving dealing with people, for which he has talent. He has as much money as him, which proves that he is not bad either.
The bald-headed man glanced at her and asked, "Then, Boss, are you doing what you like every day?"
Zhou Guo was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Of course, if I didn't like it, I wouldn't be here today."
……
With the addition of these people, the remaining wheat was harvested in six days.
The last harvest of wheat was still drying, so Zhou Guo asked Lai Zitou and his men to take the previously dried grain southward, "The sooner you go, the sooner you will return. After the autumn harvest, another batch of grain will be shipped southward."
The army is in the south, so she has to store more food there in case of emergency.
Once this batch of grain was gone, the remaining grain was replenished to various grain stores, and enough grain was left for each farm to last for a year, so there would be nothing left.
But at least there is no need to transfer energy from the north, and after the autumn harvest, there will still be enough energy to support the south.
After spending so much money last year, Nanhe is finally seeing a return on its investment.
After the wheat was harvested, she walked around the farms. The originally golden wheat fields were now only covered with wheat stubble and rice next door.
The wheat field had the largest harvest this year, with an output of 590 grams per mu! !
Rice doesn't have this much yield yet.
This is the best and most fertile piece of land in the entire Nanhe River, covering only about 30 acres.
If it weren't too little, she would have wanted to use it to grow rice next year. Maybe the harvest would be higher if the rice was planted?
Quanzi sighed, "The land here is fertile. I've been growing wheat in the north for a few years, but I've never had such a high yield per mu. No one would believe it if I told them!"
No one really believed it. Nowadays, most families only harvest more than three shi. Even so, because of new grain varieties and fertilizers, five and nine shi or even six shi per mu is such an unfamiliar yield.
She split this piece of land into two and separated it for planting next time. The good seeds collected from various villages in Nanhe would then be put to good use.
After the grain was harvested, she called together all the managers of Nanhe and held a meeting for several days.
Then there were endless people he met, including officials, wealthy families, landlords, and even farmers at the grassroots, to see the harvests from their fields.
Every day, from the time I open my eyes to the time I close them, I have to squeeze in time to even drink a sip of tea.
I've become hoarse from talking too much.
By the time everything was done, a month had passed.
She was going back to the North.
Before the autumn harvest, she had to go to Kang'an and Ningping to take a look at these two places, which was a necessary procedure every year.
She went to new places and new villages every year. Although many people didn't know her, they didn't dare to offend them because of their imposing manner and tall and majestic appearance. They only dared to speak when they heard that they were members of the Zhou family.
She went to the fields to check the wheat and the harvest, and asked farmers how they cultivated the fields.
Seeing that she spoke so convincingly, everyone became more bold, thinking that the noble lady was also very good at farming, even better than these old hands.
After going to the new village, you have to go to the old village as well.
We must visit those villages that had poor harvests last year and the year before, and we must also pick a few villages with the best harvests, and we must also visit those villages with the highest per-acre yield.
After this exchange, everyone slapped their thighs and exclaimed, "So this works, doesn't it save a lot of fat?"
Everyone benefited a lot and Zhou Guo also gained a lot.
She flipped through the thick booklet in her hand. These were the important things she had written down over the years. They were all about farming and breeding techniques. They were her experiences over the years and things she had gained from communicating with so many people.
Er Pang said at the side: "Master, this book is so thick. In a few years, you can write a book."
Dashu and Xiaoshu were very surprised, "Can this be made into a book?"
Erpang couldn't bear to watch.
Zhou Guo said, "Let's talk about it later. It's not the right time to finish the book."
I'm so busy now, how can I have the time to finish a book?
On the contrary, in the future, if the world is stable and her business is on the right track, she can write a book about it.
Apart from anything else, some of the farming methods in it are really useful. These are the experiences gained by our ancestors and are treasures.
After traveling to three prefectures, more than a month had passed.
It has been some time since she left Yunzhou, and she doesn't know if there has been any news from Zhang Lian.
The first thing I did after returning to Yunzhou was to go to the government office.
Zhang Lian complained to her, "Where have you been these days? You've been gone for too long. Didn't I tell you to stay in Yunzhou if you have nothing to do? I can't find you."
Zhou Guo said, "You know, I have such a big business, how can I stay in Yunzhou forever? My family is not well-off, you can't compare me with those big families in Yunzhou. They don't move because they have many people to use, everything is on the right track, and they don't need to move much. But I can't do that."
If she just stood there and did nothing, although no one would be lazy, things would not be so smooth. Moreover, some things could only be resolved by her personally.
Zhang Lian said, "That's not what I meant. I just want you to find a way to find you wherever you go."
Zhou Guo frowned, "I travel all over the world, how can I let you find me at any time? My mother doesn't even have this treatment! Well, just tell me what news there is in the south."
Zhang Lian was about to cry, "I heard that the court has captured General Xu. His head is hanging on the city gate. You, your brother, went deep into the city alone. I heard that you were also trapped."
Zhou Guo's heart sank. "Is the news reliable? Are you sure?"
Zhang Lian said: "This is the only news I got."
Seeing her face that was about to be blamed, he comforted her: "But don't worry too much. This news might have been spread by the other side to spread the cholera. After all, your brother is leading tens of thousands of troops. They are all the headquarters of the Xu family army. They have fought against the Hu people at the border for many years. Their fighting power is not comparable to that of ordinary people. How could they be trapped so easily?"
Obviously he was worried to death, but when he tried to comfort others, he was quite reasonable and well-founded.
Zhou Guo couldn't help but said, "You should look at your face before you say these things. You are about to cry."
Zhang Lian: “…”
Waving his hands, he said unhappily: "Who am I doing this for? If I wasn't afraid that you would be too sad, I wouldn't say this. It's really a thankless job. You little girl, you are too difficult to serve."
Zhou Guo didn't say anything, thinking about what had happened during this period.
Xu Sibei led an army of 50,000 southwards, and it had only been a few months since he left. How come he was discovered?
The army was moving at such a fast speed and advancing secretly through the mountains, so how was it discovered?
If he hadn't revealed the news himself, no one would know where he was. Or maybe someone from the North leaked the news and released it on purpose?
If General Xu had not been caught, he might have come out for his youngest son, and at the same time he could have tempted Xu Sibei. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was released deliberately by the enemy.
