276. What a big number

Meeting Qu Shaojing, who was being hunted by an assassin, was nothing more than a trivial matter for Cheng Xi.

After the people from Wu'an Hou Mansion took him away, he entered the courtyard and regained his composure. I don't know what his instructions were. In the following few days, Cheng Xi did not notice any difference from the past.

"It seems that the cynical young prince's words are somewhat safe."

No one will bother the Shen family in the future, that would be great.

With this thought in mind, Cheng Xi picked up the kettle and watered the three layers of vegetables in the yard.

"They look good. You can pick some with big leaves and eat them."

"It's been more than 20 days since I planted this vegetable. It's only because of the good weather that it's growing so fast."

Shen Xingqi couldn't help but pinch a piece of lettuce leaf, rinsed it under water for a while and put it in her mouth, "It's crispy and has a subtle sweetness. You can put it in the noodle soup tomorrow morning."

"Just tonight."

Cheng Xi smiled and said, "The test will be over this afternoon. Why don't you make some fish soup to replenish your brother's health? Add some vegetable leaves to mix it with meat and vegetables."

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that? Go buy fish now!"

Chen Xingqi took Wangshu and went out, "Sister-in-law, I'll leave it to you to pick up my brother!"

"Do you have fish soup to drink? Girl Xingqi, please buy more. If there are bigger fish, buy more. The fish balls with stuffing will be delicious!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, I will remember it."

Not long after the two girls left, Su Zhan returned with several letters and handed a thick stack of letters to Cheng Xi.

"Madam, this is a letter from Hongwei Escort."

"Just take care of it yourself. Is there anything important?"

"Mr. Cheng has arrived at Lin'an Mansion with the escort agency, and a letter has also been sent from Shenjia Village."

Cheng Xi took out two letters from a pile of letters and tore them open first from Cheng Daqian. As always, her father kept nagging about his precious son-in-law Yan Ming. It would not be easy to take the exam and wait until he was released to drink more soup. Yunyun looked at the corner of her mouth. Straight draw.

The word "release" is... used very expressively.

"It seems that even having a son-in-law who can read can't improve my father's cultural quality."

The last letter did come from Shenjia Village, but it was not sent by Shen Manyun. The letter was written by Shen Qingsong.

"Qingsong has been admitted to Huaiyuan Academy? This is a good thing."

"Young Master Qingsong originally wanted to join the Fifth Prince's Army. The young master asked him to stay in the academy for two years before leaving Lin'an Mansion. It is not too late to consider it after he reaches fifteen years old."

Shen Qingsong's letter is very long. The first few letters are all about the current situation of Huaiyuan Academy. There is no impetuousness in the words, which is enough to show that he also likes it very much.

"If you want to make great achievements and become a general, you must be familiar with the art of war."

If you don't have a good mind, no matter how powerful your force is, you will inevitably get tricked.

Cheng Xi flipped back one after another, and the next few pages wrote about the current situation of Shenjia Village.

The grape vines and cherry trees planted at the foot of Shennong Mountain are growing well. Since they are old trees, they will be harvested next year. The whole village has used the ten acres of potatoes to breed and plant them. Now potatoes are planted all over the mountains and fields, and they are growing well.

】

"I remember that the second season potatoes were planted in early July?"

"Yes, it's been nearly two months now."

It can be harvested in mid or late September.

Cheng Xi calculated in the center of his mind that a total of 45,000 kilograms of potatoes were harvested from ten acres of land, and each acre required about 300 kilograms of seeds. So... wouldn't it be possible to harvest 675,000 kilograms of potatoes from the second crop?

What a big number!

At this rate, it can be expanded to more than 2,000 acres next spring, and it will be spread throughout Lin'an Prefecture in autumn.
