Soon, Zhou Huai saw the seeds in Gu Beichuan's mouth.
Golden!
Large golden rice ears.
The grains are plump and the color is excellent.
With just one glance, Zhou Huai could tell that this was definitely the best food!
Golden rice ears are loaded on a cart, swaying in the wind.
This golden color made Zhou Huai's heart heat up in the cold winter months.
He walked forward quickly, peeled off the rice ears on the cart, and saw large tracts of seeds underneath.
Those seeds are actually much better in quality than those on the ears of rice!
It’s really unbelievable!
At this time, Gu Beichuan also came out and said with a smile: "It seems that Zhou Yuanwai is very satisfied with this batch of seeds."
After hearing this, Zhou Huai turned around and nodded solemnly.
If just now he had doubts about Gu Beichuan's statement that he could produce 400 kilograms per mu per year, now he can only admire him.
Such seeds provide sufficient evidence for the statement that the yield per mu is four hundred kilograms.
He also convinced this old grain merchant with a sinister vision.
"Gu Shijun really wants to give the seeds to Zhou Ji?" At this moment, the old grain merchant's eyes were full of solemnity and solemnity, fully demonstrating the temperament he had honed over decades of ups and downs in the business world, and the initial sense of neglect was gone.
Gu Beichuan nodded when he heard this and said: "Feihong and Zhou Ji Grain Merchant are partners."
"When spring comes next year, maybe we can merge into one family."
“If I have a good product, I will naturally share it with you first.”
Zhou Huai was a little surprised when he heard this. Because these words seemed a bit... familiar.
After thinking about it for a moment, I remembered it!
Isn't this what Gu Shijun said after helping Shen Ji be elected as the emperor's merchant?
Good guy, I was in vain for someone Zhou to think that the ice-patterned silk was just made by Gu Shijun by chance.
But I never imagined that they really have such skills!
And it’s a technology that can be found in all walks of life.
No, we just made ice-patterned silk, and now we’ve made a hybrid rice.
And this good thing actually allowed me, Lao Zhou, to catch up.
Really, God has opened his eyes, God has opened his eyes!
"Since Gu Shijun has said so, I will get straight to the point."
"In recent days, my Zhou family has indeed encountered difficulties..."
Afterwards, Zhou Huai informed all about the selection of imperial merchants and the locusts.
"In other words, Yuanwai Zhou wants to use my skills to participate in the imperial business election?"
"Yes, this is my weekly diary's only chance to defeat Jiangnan Anshi."
"If Gu Shijun has other conditions, just mention them."
Gu Beichuan thought for a moment, and then said: "Like Shen Ji, how about Zhou Ji cooperating with Feihong?"
"I am willing to share all relevant information on hybrid rice technology with Zhou Ji, but accordingly, Zhou Ji should also devote some resources."
"Whatever Gu Shijun wants, just say it."
Gu Beichuan smiled when he heard this and said: "It saves trouble to talk to smart people. I want to keep track of the channels for collecting and selling grain."
As soon as he said this, Zhou Huai narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was carefully calculating in his heart.
It's not surprising that he is like this, it's really because this channel should be regarded as the most valuable thing for every grain merchant.
Food is urgently needed!
However, some places are rich and have abundant food, so the price is low.
Some places are equally wealthy, but only other industries are developed, and fertile land for growing food is relatively scarce.
As a result, the price of food will be slightly more expensive.
What grain merchants have to do is to buy low and sell high to make profits.
However, in this place where there is a lot of food, why do farmers want to sell food to you? In a place where there is little food, why do people want to buy food from you?
This is channels and reputation! It is often the intangible wealth that grain merchants spend several years to accumulate.
But even so, after thinking about it, Zhou Huai still nodded.
"I can give Feihong the weekly diary channel, but Gu Dongjia also needs to give me a promise."
"Then this channel can only be used by Feihong family, and must not be leaked to other families."
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "This is natural."
"One more thing, in fact, hybrid rice technology is far from reaching its end."
"But I don't have enough manpower, so I need to send some experienced farmers who know grain and even better rice to come and collaborate and study together."
"If the results come out, how about you and I still share it?"
"What I wish for!"
After saying these words, the cooperation between the two was confirmed.
Of course, there was no verbal agreement to be made, and Gu Beichuan would have to go to the governor's mansion to sign the contract another day before Gu Beichuan would send the relevant technology to the Zhou Mansion.
This is tacitly understood by everyone.
After the matter was settled, Zhou Huai, as the host, naturally entertained Gu Beichuan with a banquet.
Afterwards, Gu Beichuan left.
Before returning to Nanshan Residence, he also wanted to see how Li Dongbi and his Feihong Medical Clinic were doing.
When he arrived at the entrance of the medical clinic, Gu Beichuan felt that the decoration was quite good.
Continuing Feihong’s usual atmosphere!
Especially on that plaque, the four words "Feihong Medical Center" were written by him himself. It looks wild and uninhibited, unique and majestic.
Next to the four characters, there is a roc bird spreading its wings and ready to fly.
Naturally, it’s Feihong’s logo.
Whether it's the décor or the doctors, Fei Hung Medical Center is impeccable.
However, because it has only been open for a short period of time and few people know about it, the number of people who come here is somewhat limited.
"Brother Dongbi, I'm here to see you." Gu Beichuan's voice came from far away, but Li Dongbi, who was practicing medicine, ignored him.
Gu Beichuan was not annoyed, but sat quietly and waited.
This is an occupational disease for the children of the Medicine Palace. When practicing medicine and asking for medicine, you must never be distracted!
After a while, Li Dongbi finished looking at the patient, then looked at him and said, "Why do you have time to come to my place?"
"Aren't we here to see how your medical clinic is doing? How is it going? If there are any shortcomings, I'll ask Uncle Fu to send it to you another day."
"There is no shortage, but there is a shortage of people coming to treat patients."
"There are also apprentices, not even one."
"But even so, it's much better than my previous life."
Having said this, the corners of Li Dongbi's mouth twitched, and he squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "Thank you."
"What? What did Brother Dongbi say? Why did my ears suddenly lose hearing?"
"Would you like to show it to me?"
Li Dongbi pushed him away angrily and cursed angrily: "You have a very good ear, look at it like a stick."
"By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you."
"What's the matter?"
"A few days ago, when I was leaving Bagong Village, I ran into a group of young people."
"They were wearing black scarves and black clothes. Each of them was carrying a big bag, and there seemed to be mosquitoes buzzing in it."
"I saw that their whereabouts were really suspicious, so I took action to capture them. After questioning, I found out that something was fishy."
When Gu Beichuan heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank, his eyes dilated, and he said, "Could it be that the people you caught are the ones Zhou Yuanwai mentioned?"
When Li Dongbi heard this, he was also stunned and said: "They did say that they were entrusted by others to release locusts in certain fields and damaged those crops."
"As for whether it harmed the person you mentioned as Zhou Yuanwai, I didn't ask in detail."
"Where are those people now? Send them to the government for questioning!"
"There must be something fishy about this!"
"It's being kept in the hospital. If you want to send him to the official, I will accompany you there."
