Chapter 105: Pull out and pull out carrots
"The years when my grandfather was in power were also the most dangerous and difficult years."
The entire country is facing internal and external troubles, the people are living in poverty, and there are forces from the previous dynasty that are always stirring in the dark. The entire society is complicated and intricate.
"Now that I have abdicated, it's time to enjoy myself."
The ministers who followed were also very emotional. They did not expect that the retired emperor had such a personality in private. They also understood some of the retired emperor's ways of dealing with things. In troubled times, severe punishments should be used. Everything should be done quickly and decisively. His methods were very powerful, otherwise the country could not be governed stably.
In private, the emperor was just like an ordinary old man, with a loving smile on his face. He was cheerful and sometimes even like a naughty boy.
"Let's go, let's go to the feast."
The entire Su family’s banquet was very sumptuous, with meat, fish, soup, cold dishes, hot dishes, and the Su family’s signature braised dishes.
The last time these villagers tasted Su's braised food was when the village chief's grandson got married. They haven't tasted it for a while, and the Su's braised food has become more and more delicious.
"The Su family's craftsmanship is truly amazing." Someone praised.
"Yes, this is better than what we ate during the Chinese New Year."
At the end of the meal, each table was served some fruits, candies and popcorn. Everyone at the table could get some and they could also give some to their children.
Sitting at the table in the inner room were the Su family, the emperor, Ji Shiyan, Zhou Ziyu and a group of ministers.
During this time, the little round-faced man also said that the Su family’s white radishes were ready to be harvested.
Now, the people who had originally planned to go back today decided not to go back. The white radishes were about to be harvested, so why would they go back? Why would they wait to harvest the white radishes?
After the banquet, the villagers went back happily, still holding some candies and fruits in their hands. They were reluctant to eat them and planned to save them for later.
"Mom, I ate a lot of meat today." The little kid with two little pigtails said in childish words.
"Really? Then mommy should work hard and make sure Xiaobao can eat meat every day, okay?"
"Okay, but don't be too tired, Mom, or Xiaobao will be sad." The little girl pulled her mother's sleeve and said in a baby voice.
Su Mu, Ji Shiyan and the others didn't know what to feel when they heard the child's sensible tone.
Ji Shiyan and his family went to live in the small villa of the retired emperor. Although it was not completed yet, there were already several rooms available. The Su family also sent them quilts. It would be very cold without a quilt in this weather.
The Su family cannot accommodate so many people at the moment. They also thought about building a house, but now the weather is cold, so they must give each person a room, or even a yard.
In that case, the house will be very large. It will be difficult to build in winter due to the cold weather. Let's talk about building the house in the spring of next year.
After notifying Aunt Wu, Zhao Guangping and several other families, the Su family started picking radishes.
The Su family, Ji Shiyan's group, and the hired laborers to pull radishes all came to the fields.
The white radishes in the field are now fully mature and each one has grown very large. Most of the radishes are sticking out outside, while only a small half or a tip is almost buried in the soil.
A group of people went to the field and bent down to pull radishes. Su Mu pulled them out one in each hand without any effort.
Some people have been having sex for a long time but still can't pull out. Zhou Ziyu is one of them.
"Zhou Ziyu, shake the white radish left and right, hold the upper part of the radish and apply force and it will come out." Su Mu shouted.
"Okay." Zhou Ziyu tried and actually pulled it out.
"Look, I pulled out a big radish! Sumu, your radishes are really big."
They just came here to experience the fun of pulling radishes, and it is impossible to ask them to help pull radishes for a whole day.
In the distance, Aunt Wu and her family were pulling radishes, and people pulling radishes could also be seen in other wheat fields.
There were not only workers pulling radishes in the fields, but many people came to the edge of the fields, including villagers who came to join in the fun, and some businessmen who knew that the new variety of radishes here had started to be picked, and they all rushed over.
In this somewhat cold weather, everyone was working hard. Ji Shiyan even tied his sleeves halfway up to reveal a small part of his arms, and the clear muscle lines could be seen on them.
This man looks quite thin, but I didn't expect him to be the type who looks thin when dressed and has muscles when undressed. His muscle lines look powerful, but not too big and very smooth.
The lines became clearer as he exerted more force, and Ji Shiyan felt as if someone was looking at him.
I turned around and found it was Su Mu, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Su Mu withdrew his gaze.
Ji Shiyan looked at his arms. It turned out that he was looking at his muscles. He would have to practice hard when he goes back to consolidate them. And he must not let his abdominal muscles get any worse.
Within an hour, all the white radishes in the first acre of land were pulled out and packed.
The workers continued to pull out radishes and started weighing them. They put each basket of radishes on the scale and recorded the numbers. They then weighed another basket and added up the weights of all the baskets. This was the yield per acre of land.
The person who was recording looked at the string of numbers in disbelief. He calculated it over and over again and it was still the same number.
"What's going on? How many are there?" the person next to him was anxious.
“These radishes look like a lot!”
"It must be very heavy. It feels like five stones."
"No, no, no, these white radishes weigh more than seven stones!" the recorder shouted excitedly.
"What! What? There are seven stones."
"Yes, it's Qishi."
A villager ran to the field in a panic, "Mumu, don't pull them out yet. Your white radish yield is seven stones per mu. Come and have a look."
"Hey, auntie, I'm here." Su Mu put down the radish in his hand and walked over.
"Why isn't the little girl from the Su family excited? If this happened to me, I would be so happy that I wouldn't be able to sleep."
"Otherwise, how can you say that he is capable of great things?"
Su Mu looked at the record paper and the white radish next to it and nodded. It was not that she was not excited, but she really had collected too many radishes in the space, coupled with the impact of tens of thousands of kilograms in modern times.
The people around kept praising the girl from the Su family for being steady and having the demeanor of a noble person.
The emperor was also standing by, smiling and eating the radish that Su Mu handed to him. It was tender and juicy and delicious even when eaten raw.
It’s true that Su girl is indeed a lucky star.
After hearing the yield, the people in the fields worked even harder. They couldn't wait to know how many white radishes could be produced from the ten acres of land.
"Miss Su, please sell these white radishes to us. We are the richest in our company and can eat all the radishes."
"Give it to us! We are the most loyal merchants."
"Me, and us."
Several merchants began bidding.
Ji Shiyan actually saw the manager of his own business arguing fiercely inside.
