Protect Our Clan Leader-Chapter 722 93: Shou Zhe’s Cunning Plan to Secure Qing’an (Monthly Pass Requested) _3

Sun Chuan Xue gasped, "Hiss! I'll go now, right now, okay? You'd better let go of me."

Liu Qinghao realized he had been overly excited, and quickly let go, looking pleadingly at his brother-in-law.

Sun Chuan Xue had no choice but to comfort him, signaled for the ox-cart driver and gave him an address.

Before long, the ox-cart leisurely arrived at a manor's entrance.

This manor looked no different from the other farms in the area. If Sun Chuan Xue hadn't brought Liu Qinghao here, he would never imagine that this place was selling high-yield grain seeds.

There was no guard at the farm. Once inside, following the earthen path down the middle, they crossed between houses of varying heights, and very soon, the ox-cart brought them to an unremarkable house.

Sun Chuan Xue, escorting Liu Qinghao off the cart, walked over and rhythmically knocked on the door: "Knock~knock, knock~knock, knock, knock~"

After a moment, a young man dressed as a farmer came to open the door, saying nothing as he looked at Sun Chuan Xue.

"Brother, I've come to collect my wheat seeds. In addition, my sister's son would also like to purchase some," Sun Chuan Xue courteously said, gesturing towards him.

Although the young man appeared ordinary, Sun Chuan Xue couldn't see through his cultivation base, an indication that he wore something that concealed his cultivation. Therefore, it was always good to be polite.

The young man took a look at him, then glanced at Liu Qinghao standing behind him, seeming to discern their identities. Moments later, he nodded: "Follow me."

This young man was known as Wang Xiaohu, the youngest son of the head of the Wang family.

Initially, his father was part of the Wang family's grand plan to develop new territories. He made a substantial contribution to the family by garnering great wealth. His strength had reached the ninth level of Qi refining realm. If he hadn't been lacking innate talent and unable to afford Heavenly Spirit Pills, he might already be in the Spiritual Platform realm.

As the youngest son, he reaped the benefits too. He had consumed an Enlightenment Pill when he was very young, which boosted his talent. Although he was only in his early twenties now, he already had the cultivation base of the sixth level of Qi refining realm, which was stronger than most descendents of Rank 9 prominent families.

Because of this, he was quite esteemed among the young heads of households. After finishing this excellent assignment, he'd earn a substantial contribution to the family. Presently, the family had opened up the exchange for Blood Refining Pills to the household heads. If he made an effort, he might be able to exchange for a Blood Refining Pill.

With such a pill, his talent would rank high among the household heads and he might even get a chance to break through to the Spiritual Platform realm within his lifetime.

Wang Xiaohu led the way.

Quickly, the three of them passed through the hall and entered the inner chamber. They descended through a hidden trapdoor into a cellar. The cellar was divided into many compartments. Each door was locked, obscuring its contents.

Throughout their journey, the young man didn't say much. It wasn't until they reached one of the compartments that he pulled out a key, opened the door and said, "There are three kinds of wheat seeds - 'No.43', 'No.59', and 'No.27'. Tell me which one you want to buy and how much, then pay half the deposit. Then our people will take the seeds to your farm. Cash on delivery, to keep things clean."

While speaking, he glanced at Liu Qinghao. Clearly, his words were meant for him.

"This…" Liu Qinghao understood the trading rules but was confused about the difference between the seeds, "What's the difference between these wheat seeds? Could you kindly explain, brother?"

Sun Chuan Xue also didn't know before that there would be three different kinds of wheat seeds and looked at the young man for an explanation.

The young man was clearly prepared, and slowly explained, "'No.43' is stronger against diseases and pests. Even if there's a massive outbreak of insects, the reduction in yield won't be severe."

"'No.59' matures more quickly, about a week faster than the Zuo Qiu family's grain, and one or two days faster compared to our own grain."

"As for 'No.27', it is more flood-resistant. Even in the case of a flood, the reduction of yield won't be too significant."

After thinking for a moment, he added: "In terms of yield, 'No.43' is slightly lower than 'No.59', and 'No.27' is even more so, about ten percent less. Nonetheless, all are at least thirty to forty percent higher than Zuo Qiu family's grains. You can choose the suitable grains according to your situation."

In fact, 'No.27' had been phased out within the Wang family for quite some time.

Because the Wang family had been paying attention to the prevention of floods for years, Ping'an Town had not experienced a flood in almost twenty years. Consequently, 'No. 27', a variety of wheat developed to cope with flood conditions, was not grown by anyone anymore.

On the other hand, Qing An Prefecture is abundant in water resources. Unlike the Wang family, the Zuo Qiu family did not focus on infrastructure building and flood prevention, so floods were still a severe problem. Even now, the Suo Chun Jiang still bursts its banks every few years.

'No.27', which was gathering dust, found new use.

Sun Chuan Xue and Liu Qinghao felt the traits of high-yield, early maturity, and flood resistance were all important. Deliberating between 'No.59' and 'No.27' took them quite a long time. In the end, they simply decided to buy half of each type.

Having cooperated before, the two agreed to the terms and gave the deposit promptly. Then, with high hopes for the future, they left cheerfully to return home.
