Chapter 270 - 270: The Little Chick Has Grown Up
Looking at the sincere expression on Ming Zhiyan’s face, Jian Qingqing felt a little disgusted at herself for judging a gentleman’s character with a mean heart. She clearly knew what kind of person Ming Zhiyan was. He was simply a good official who was dedicated to serving the people, he had received a world-reaching education in this era. He was dedicated to serving the country and the people.
It was useless to say anything to him at this moment. He just had to follow his words. Jian Qingqing said seriously and perfunctorily, “I understand. I will work hard.
Ming Zhiyan thought she had heard him. He let out a gratified “Okay.”
This day was an unprecedented event for the people of Shifeng County. Everyone who had returned from the Jian Family Village had said that there was a high yield of grain there. The yield per acre was about two thousand catties of high-yield grain!
The people who returned said it vividly. Not only did they say what the grain was called, what it looked like, and how many people had dug up the land, but they also said what the expressions on their faces were like at that time.
Instantly, the entire county was in an uproar. Some people even knelt on the ground, crying and praying to the Heavens. Those who wanted to go to Jian
Village to see the appearance of high-yield grain were lined up from outside Jian Village to the people of Shifeng County. The entire avenue was filled with people.
However, not all of them could go in. Jian Village only received 30,000 people at the front, and the people at the back were allowed to go back on their own. However, there were still many people who were loitering outside and were unwilling to leave.
Jian Village’s high-yield grain took half a month to be completely collected. The houses used by every household to store grain were all piled up.
After the grain was collected, it was all bought by the people from the county office. Instantly, the entire Jian Village was filled with money.
With silver in their pockets, they walked on the road with awe, grinning so much that their eyes almost disappeared.
After they earned money, many people bought gifts to Jian Qingqings house.
“Qingqing, it’s all thanks to you! We can earn so much money. Othervvise, our family wouldn’t have enough to eat!”
“Yeah, Qingqing is really our lucky star! If it weren’t for you, we would still be eating grass!
Jian Qingqing smiled and said, “That’s also the result of your hard work. If it weren’t for you guys waking up early and working hard to serve the crops, you guys wouldn’t be able to grow so well.”
The aunties laughed happily. “Qingqing really knows how to talk, but that’s also true. Those lazy families don’t grow as well as my family, and they don’t earn as much money as my family!”
Jian Qingqing was not used to talking to these aunties. After chatting for a while, she handed them over to Mother Jian and found an excuse to slip away.
Ever since she got the money, there was an endless stream of people coming to her house. The gifts she brought were even more numerous. Jian Qingqing only kept the food that they made at home, and returned everything else.
She did not like to deal with this kind of situation, but Old Man Jian and the others were very happy. Ever since Jian Qingqing brought them to earn money, Old Man Jian’s status in the village had risen by leaps and bounds. Anyone who saw him would have to respectfully greet him.
After leaving, Jian Qingqing went to the chicken farm. Now that all the chickens had grown up, the experienced villagers said that they were ready to be sold.
Jian Qingqing was too busy these days. She did not have time to deal with them, so she let them continue to stay here.
There were roosters and hens in the chicken farm. Previously, there was a batch of hens that laid eggs, and Jian Qingqing sold them all. However, some of the chickens went down into the grass and were not picked up. They were hatched by the hens, so in addition to the big chickens, there were also 100 to 200 chickens.
Jian Qingqing stood under a tree and was thinking about something. In a moment of carelessness, a big rooster flew up and pecked her arm..
