Chapter 1296： plan for next year

When Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunyun came, they had tens of thousands of silver bills in their arms, and they bought them both on the spot.

It is only over forty miles away from the capital, and the official road is wide and flat. It can be reached by horse-drawn carriage in less than an hour. Although it is not on the side of the official road, it is less than ten miles away from the official road.

The whole one-way journey will take about an hour and a quarter of an hour.

These are all cultivated land, which can be planted directly next year, saving the trouble of land reclamation.

Qiao Xuan has already made a plan in her mind to plant potatoes, watermelons, and cantaloupes next year.

All the twenty acres in the city were planted with strawberries.

This year, ten mu of potatoes will definitely be able to have a bumper harvest, and there is no need to worry about the seeds. How can I plant several hundred mu next year?

Plant hundreds of acres of watermelon and cantaloupe, and sell them directly to the capital when they are mature.

There are very few large-scale agricultural production now, and Qiao Xuan is not worried that these two kinds of melons will not be sold after they are grown.

The two bought land, and the owner enthusiastically offered to introduce them to tenants, but Qiao Xuan declined.

The tenants naturally want to attract and buy a few people. She has planned to dedicate a plot of land to build a unified house for the tenants and their servants to live in.

Warehouses, tool rooms, stockyards, etc. are also planned to be neatly planned one by one.

But she didn't plan to do this by herself, she planned to hand it over to Songshi and let him take full responsibility.

Song Shi has been working hard with them for so long, and he has also exercised by running around all day, but it is only more than a thousand acres of land, and Qiao Xuan doesn't mind letting him practice.

Song Shi was overjoyed, and was so excited that he knelt down and kowtowed to Qiao Xuan on the spot, repeatedly saying that he would do this well and would not disappoint his wife's trust.

Qiao Xuan couldn't help but wake him up.

On the way back, Qiao Xuan told Shao Yunyun how to plan the planting of the 1,200 acres of land in the carriage. She said it with great interest.

His wife's enthusiasm for growing vegetables and crops has always been so high, and whenever he talks about shining eyes, he naturally won't disappoint her.

Song Shi took this errand and was very impressed with it.

He didn't want to trouble Qiao Xuan, so he went to ask Zhao Shu's stewards for advice, but he did the right thing.

Qiao Xuan was quite satisfied, so she let him go.

It's just that Song Shi will be considered a small general manager in the future. He must be busy in managing these places. It is not good to have a servant at home Qiao Xuan told Shao Yunyun about this, and the two People called Ren Yazi and bought a 14- or 15-year-old servant named Qingyan to help with some chores.

What Qiao Xuan did not expect was that her own strawberries were very popular in Jinquan Building, and the shopkeeper came to the door in person. She wanted to increase the amount she bought every day. If possible, it would be better to increase it to about 300 kilograms per day. .

Because Jinquan Tower has a private room on one floor for the female family members, there are also many female guests.

This strawberry is especially liked by female customers. When the ladies want to buy it and take it away, Jinquan Building naturally cannot refuse it, because the desserts, candied fruit and even tea leaves in their restaurant are packaged and taken away. .

But in this way, the strawberry is not enough.

But if it was other candied desserts, just buy it or make it. Only Qiao Xuan's family supplies strawberries.

The guests knew that this strawberry was rare, and they wanted to try it more and more. Even two taels of silver a pound can still be bought.
