Chapter 243: Planting seeds and waiting for harvest

"I will definitely handle it, Miss Yu, don't worry, this is the kindness of Yujia Village, and it is also a good opportunity to benefit the people. No matter what the reason is, I will do my best to do the best."

Xu Shaobo's assurance made Youyou look at him more.

Mr. County Magistrate, there is something behind your words.

But Youyou didn't care about anything else. Just the relationship with the prince made her trust Xu Shaobo.

Not to mention that the Xu Shaobo she knew was not a bad person.

Otherwise, in the original book, he would not have ended up leaving his hometown and never returning to Beijing when the prime minister's mansion was at its peak.

After the results are discussed, the next step is to implement them.

The people on the list were notified and given seeds according to their villages and population.

The seeds for a family of two and a half acres of land are indeed few.

Some farmers, after going to Yujia Village, started to reclaim wasteland as soon as they returned home, with the whole family joining in the effort, and they only reclaimed two acres of land.

There were clearly not enough seeds.

Xu Shaobo gave timely explanations and comfort for this situation.

Not only did they inform us of the purchase price of the new crops, they even guaranteed that after they were grown, as long as anyone wanted to sell them, they would be able to sell them!

After hearing this, the farmers understood and tacitly accepted the seeds for only two and a half acres of land.

When receiving the seeds, the first people in line were villagers from a village not far from Yujia Village.

That year, an epidemic among refugees caused the destruction of a village near Yujia Village, and the population of the remaining villages plummeted. Some villages chose to merge, so the closest one to Yujia Village was more than ten miles away.

That villager was also one of those who went to Yujia Village at that time.

He held the seeds, a little excited, but still asked, "How much is this?"

There is no free lunch in the world, and no one gives for no reason.

He was well aware of the importance of these seeds, so it was impossible for him to give them away for free.

Xu Shaobo, who was doing the registration himself, looked up and replied, "These are free. You are the first group to choose to trust the county government and me, so the county government will buy this first batch of seeds from Yujia Village and then distribute them to you for free."

"After you harvest the grain, you don't have to hand it over to the government. You must save the seeds for planting next year, understand?"

This was something Xu Shaobo and Yu Lin had discussed beforehand in order to establish the image of the government among the people.

Su Lifang's inaction and evil deeds have made the people no longer trust the government. The fact that only so many villages signed up this time is the best example.

When they heard it was free, everyone became excited.

In fact, this villager was not the only one who thought so. Everyone else brought some silver.

Now I am told that it is free, how can I not be happy?

However, some are happy while others are sad, and when something causes a stir in the city, naturally there will be people who come to watch the fun.

Some people in the crowd immediately changed their expressions and beat their chests in regret, feeling that they had missed an opportunity and suffered a great loss.

Some people refuse to give up and are more active in their thinking.

Someone immediately asked, "Master Xu, will the seeds also be free in the future?"

Xu Shaobo smiled slightly, making it hard to tell what he was feeling. He said, "It's only free for the first time, and Yujia Village will no longer actively provide seeds in the future. If you want to plant new crops, you need to buy seeds on your own."

Upon hearing this, most people in the crowd changed their expressions.

For a moment, many people felt regretful.

But more people choose to wait and see.

It's always better to be careful.

After the seeds were distributed, several representatives from Yujia Village divided into several teams and gave detailed explanations to the people who received the seeds.

Yu Lin said, "Because this is your first time planting, we are also providing the best seeds. These seeds are planted all at once this time. Because they are not based on the season, except for sweet potatoes, there will definitely be some deviations in the harvest of corn and potatoes. After three months of harvest, we can select seeds for next year."

"The normal planting season should be to plant potatoes before December and harvest them in March of the following year, raise corn seedlings in April, transplant them in May, and harvest them in July, and plant sweet potatoes in August and harvest them at the end of October, so that the planting time can be connected with that of potatoes."

"In addition, we can also take care of the planting of rice and wheat. Although it is busy all year round, it is not so busy that we can't catch our breath. And if we plant according to the time I mentioned, the yield will definitely be better than the first time."

Everything that needs to be said and done has been done, and the rest depends on the people themselves.

Some people hurriedly took the seeds and went home.

Some people want to take out one or two sweet potatoes or potatoes after returning home to show their families, but after thinking about it, they still choose to plant them first.

If you eat two sweet potatoes now, you may have to harvest twenty less in the future.

At this point, a lively but small-scale planting craze has begun in various places in Songyang County.

These seeds come from Yujia Village above the formation, so the quality is certainly impeccable, but without the protection of the formation, the yield will definitely be low.

But the villagers of Yujia Village are also worried that someone may make mistakes due to unfamiliarity.

So they automatically formed a team of three or five people, and would visit other villages from time to time to prevent them from making mistakes.

However, they are all farmers who have been farming for a lifetime. Even if they are unfamiliar crops, they are quite familiar with them once they get to the fields.

Three days later, all the seeds were planted and entered the growth period, and everyone was waiting for the results three months later.

Meanwhile, time has come to the end of August.

That day, Xu Shaobo had just finished handling a case when he saw people around Dai Jialan rushing in hurriedly.

He immediately stood up and asked, "What's wrong? Is it Madam?"

The person who came was the gatekeeper of Dai Jialan's yard, and he was also arranged by the Yuwei.

The servant said, "Master, the lady accidentally fell into the pond in the backyard!"

Hearing this, Xu Shaobo's mind went blank and he rushed out the door instantly.

As he ran, he shouted, "Go get the doctor, and also go to Yu Village to get Miss Yu!"

He asked the doctor subconsciously, but he himself didn't know why he asked Youyou.

As Xu Shaobo ran wildly, Youyou's words that day emerged in his mind.

"Master Xu, your wife is pregnant. Before giving birth, you must not go near water such as rivers or ponds. You must remember this."

"If you need anything, you can come to Yujia Village to find me."

Dai Jialan is now more than nine months pregnant and will give birth in about ten days.

What happened now was something no one expected.

Xu Shaobo now has only one thought, that is, nothing must happen to his wife!

Before the servant came to notify, someone had already been sent to call for a doctor.

Now he just needs to go to Yujia Village and invite Yu Youyou over.

The servant also ran as fast as he could, grabbed a horse and ran out of the city.

However, as soon as he left the county government office, he saw Yu Lin and his daughter. The servant was not surprised but overjoyed.
