Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
“That’s right, I heard the same thing as you!”
“How, how is that possible! How can there be a thousand catties of grain per acre in this world? It’s not grass!”
“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! If it’s real, I’ll eat my shoes!”
Everyone was unwilling to believe that this was real, and they all looked at the ountant suspiciously.
“Hey! Did you just say that?”
“That’s right! Can you read or not?”
The cashier was so angry that his face turned red.
“Why would I say that? It’s written clearly in ck and white! If you don’t believe me, find someone else to read it!”
Seeing that he was so sure, everyone’s thoughts wavered again. Could there really be such a high yield of food?
“Who else among you can read?”
Everyone looked at each other, but no one stood out.
Most of them were merchants and workers nearby. Some of them came from the viges below, so no one could read.
At this time, the bailiff who was on duty at the county yamen came over at the right time.
Everyone immediately separated a path and looked at him with burning eyes.
“Sir, may I ask what is written on the notice?”
The bailiff coughed heavily and cleared his throat. He said loudly, “Now, I will read out the county magistrate’s instructions. Shifeng County’s Jian Family Vige has nted a few kinds of high-yield grain. The yield per mu is over a thousand catties. We will start digging tomorrow. Everyone is wee to go and see!”
“Wow!”
When he said this, the entire crowd was in an uproar.
The official looked at the crowd whose pupils were dted. He waved his sleeves and left, hiding his achievements and fame.
“It’s… It’s really high-yield grain…” “More than a thousand catties per acre…”
“Are we dreaming…”
Suddenly, his arm was pinched by someone. He cried out in pain and said angrily, “What are you doing!”
The person who pinched him said absentmindedly, “So you are in pain. Then it’s not a dream.”
“That’s right, this isn’t a dream. So there really is a high-yield grain?!”
For a moment, their expressions were as dazed and shocked as the vige chiefs from earlier. They had already recovered from their daze and the vige chiefs looked at them proudly.
Aiya, who would not be confused after hearing this news?
Very soon, the news of a high-yield grain spread throughout Shifeng County. Everyone, from thendlord and the local gentry to the beggars on the streets, heard about this matter. Everyone was shocked and could not believe it.
Therefore, many literate people went to the county office to read the announcement. Everyone came back in a daze with high spirits, and there was nock of teachers among them.
This time, even though they could not believe it, they could only believe it.
Shifeng County had really discovered the high yield of grain.
Vige Chief Jian was left behind by Ming Zhiyan to make arrangements for tomorrow’s matters.
Vige Chief Jian could not suppress the smile on his face. “Lord Ming, don’t worry. I will definitely handle it well!”
In the past, his Jian vige was basically the poorest vige in the entire
Shifeng County. Many people did not even know about their vige. Now that Jian Qingqing and Ming Zhiyan were here, they had such a great fortune. He secretly swore in his heart, tonight, he must go back and remind everyone to perform well tomorrow! He must show the spirit of his Jian Vige!
Ming Zhiyan grunted, he said in a deep voice, “It might be a little rough tomorrow. Tell the vigers not to talk to outsiders. My men will be stationed in the vige in the afternoon. If there’s anything you need, you can look for them.”
The vige chief said seriously, “Yes! I Won’t let anyone ruin Lord Jian’s n!”
This was the time for their Jian Family Vige to shine.. The vige chief swore that if anyone dared to cause trouble, he would beat them to death!
