Wei Ruo also responded with a smile, “Mr. Fan, what a coincidence.” “Indeed, it is a coincidence. I planned to visit Brother Heyou’s estate to discuss some matters in the next couple of days, but since we bumped into each other today, why don’t we sit down and chat?” Fan Chengxu’s interest in Wei Ruo exceeded his interest in the farm for sale.

“Sure.”

Wei Ruo agreed and turned to instruct Xiumei to follow with their carriage, then followed Fan Chengxu onto his carriage.

Unlike Wei Ruo and Xiumei who traveled lightly, Fan Chengxu always made a grand show of things, even when he simply went out, with several attendants serving him.

Also, his carriage was significantly bigger than Wei Ruo’s. Spacious inside, it was arranged with a table and refreshments.

After Wei Ruo settled in, Fan Chengxu poured her a cup of tea.

Wei Ruo took the tea cup from Fan Chengxu, took a delicate sip. It was black tea, freshly made.

Wei Ruo had tasted Yusheng Tea Garden’s black tea a few days ago.

After the black tea was made, Shopkeeper Shen immediately gave samples to

Wei RUO. It wasn’t until Wei Ruo said it was alright that it was delivered to Fan Chengxu and then promoted in Yusheng Tea House.

“In a few days, I will send the relevant account books of Yusheng Tea Garden to Brother Heyou. I will show the accounts to Brother Heyou once a month, and after Brother Heyou confirms there is no problem, I will pay you the corresponding profit.” Fan Chengxu said to Wei Ruo.

Fan Chengxu always keeps his word. Since he said the profit would be shared with Xu Heyou, all the relevant accounts would be transparent to him.

“Thank you,” said Wei Ruo.

“Aren’t you worried that I will do black accounting? Yusheng Tea House is also my business, I can totally manipulate the accounts.” Fan Chengxu’s mouth twitched with a smile, looking at Wei Ruo with great interest.

“What’s the point of worrying? From the moment I agreed, I should have considered the possible situations. If I’m hesitant, the business will never succeed.” Wei Ruo replied candidly.

Fan Chengxu laughed and said, “No wonder I recognize you, your thoughts are very similar to mine.”

Wei Ruo didn’t refute, she could also feel the similarity between her and Fan

Chengxu in some ways.

“The sales of Brother Heyou’s black tea are good, it’s selling well at Yusheng

Tea House. I also sent some to my hometown to let them try it. freewebnσvel.cøm

Wei Ruo knew the hometown Fan Chengxu referred to was the Capital City. His purpose was not just simply to let his family try the tea, but to cleverly open up the market.

This is something that Wei Ruo couldn’t do by herself at present, which was the advantage of cooperating with Fan Chengxu.

“It’s good to hear that sales are going well. This year, there wasn’t enough time to make higher quality tea. If Mr. Fan plans to continue making black tea, next year a batch of tea leaves can be reserved specifically for making black tea, selecting young leaves for a more delicate taste.” Suggested Wei Ruo.

“I’m looking forward to it,” said Fan Chengxubo with a smile.

Wei Ruo continued, “I’m a bit busy these days, I will visit Yusheng Tea Garden again in a few days. Based on the actual situation of the tea garden, fertilizer will be arranged to ensure better growth of the tea leaves next year. For the following days.l I would have to trouble Mr. Fan to arrange people to do some work.”

“Brother Heyou, please feel free to instruct.” Said Fan Chengxu.

-I hope Mr. Fan can order someone to select a flat site in Yusheng Tea Garden and dig a square pit, about ten feet square in size and three to four feet deep.” “No problem, just wondering why Brother Heyou wants such a square pit?” Fan Chengxu asked, intrigued.

“Once the pit is dug up, 1 want Mr. Fan to transport all the leftover food, rotten fruits, and vegetables from the Zuixian Residence everyday and fill in this pit. Then, sprinkle a large amount of black coal dust on it, and then bury it with mud. After such fermentation for half a month, we will have the fertiliser to enhance the teagarden.” Wei Ruo explained.

Fan Chengxu looked at Wei Ruo with appreciative eyes, “Brother Heyou is truly knowledgeable.”

“Mr. Fan, you’re too kind. These are just some crude methods used by rural people. It’s just that you, Mr. Fan, a person of your social circle, don’t often come across them.” Wei Ruo responded.

“In my opinion, the knowledge of Brother Heyou is unparalleled compared to an ordinary countryman.” Said Fan Chengxu, not showing any reluctance to express his admiration for Wei Ruo.

Then Fan Chengxu asked Wei Ruo, “Does Mr. Xu think the weather will be good for the remainder of this year?”

“Mr. Fan, I’m just an ordinary person. I know neither magic nor fortune-telling. I’m unable to predict the changes in weather.”

Wei Ruo indeed could not predict the weather, but she had a vague impression from the original host’s memory. Although the original host was already in the Capital City at that time, she vaguely remembered that the weather wasn’t very good and food seemed to be a major problem consistently.

Of course, this wasn’t something she could tell Fan Chengxu.

Fan Chengxu again asked with a smile, “Then, does Mr. Xu have any plans about the current situation? If there is a good countermeasure, please remember to tell me.”

“There isn’t really a good countermeasure, just to buy more land and plant more grains. If the weather doesn’t treat rice kindly, then it’s time to try sowing something else.” Wei Ruo answered.

Fan Chengxu was too shrewd, with too many calculations hidden in his eyes. Wei Ruo needed to be cautious when answering his questions so as to avoid revealing anything.

“That makes sense. Does Brother Heyou have any recommendation for substitute crops to replace paddy?”

Fan Chengxu spoke with a smile, his eyes cunning like a fox, as if trying to see through Wei Ruo.

Fan Chengxu had a vague feeling that the person in front of him wasn’t being completely honest with him, but he couldn’t point out what he had hidden.

Mr. Xu Heyou gave him an older sense of depth and restraint, as a result, he still couldn’t read him despite having dealt with him so many times.

“The sweet potato, a crop that has just begun to be planted these years, is quite good. However, this crop is not very frost resistant. All we can do is hope that there won’t be any extreme weather coming.” Wei Ruo replied.

“I will order my people to plant this sweet potato on any available land.” Fan Chengxu said.

Then, Fan Chengxu went on to chat with Wei Ruo for a while. When they started to discuss ways of making money, they could chat happily and without worry.

The carriage soon arrived at the city gate. Wei Ruo got off Fan Chengxu’s carriage and went back to her own.

After saying goodbye to Fan Chengxu, their carriages entered the city gates one after the other.

Because it was still early, going back to the Military Prefecture would be the same as telling her family she didn’t go to Tianqin Garden for classes today, so Wei Ruo took a leisurely stroll around the city.

During this leisurely stroll, Wei Ruo noticed that the number of beggars in the city had increased since last time.

Wei Ruo also saw people selling their children on the street, and even selling their own wives..
