Shangwen's wife felt even more uncomfortable seeing him like this. Did he really think this was impossible
"Husband, don't forget that the princess grew rice with a yield of 1,800 kilograms per mu. Before she grew it, who would believe it was true?" Shangwen's wife still didn't want her husband to give up this opportunity, so she looked at him seriously and said.
"Improve the cotton planting method and increase the output to 700 kilograms. Are you sure that the princess can't do it? Even if there is not 700 kilograms, even if the harvest is only 400 kilograms, as long as the princess and others spend money to buy it, it will also be a huge income for us." What the village chief said from her mother's side was right. Since the princess dared to say it, she can definitely do it.
We have grown 1,800 kilograms of rice, so are we still worried that we can’t grow 700 kilograms of cotton
Shang Wen was a little impatient, looking at the people around him and said irritably: "Okay, I think you just listen to your family too much, so you say this kind of thing."
Shang Wen's wife saw that she had said so much, and Shang Wen was still like this, so she could only say helplessly: "I have said everything I should say. If you don't listen, there is nothing I can do."
"As long as you don't regret it in the future, that's all that's fine." After saying that, she walked out, not wanting to talk to him any more.
Shangwen curled his lips, still somewhat disapproving.
Can this high-yield thing be grown just by her saying so
On the other side, Shang Wen's son Shang Jie went to find his mother: "Mom, I think what the princess said might be true."
During this period, my father's mind was on the wasteland. He didn't care about what the princess said, and even didn't allow others to agree to grow cotton.
This is not a good thing.
Shang Wen's wife nodded and said, "I have heard from your grandfather and others that this is almost certain, and the princess has already said that a workshop might be built there. These were originally on our side, but in the end they were pushed over there because of your father. When this news is confirmed, the people in the village will probably blame your father."

"And there's the matter of cotton. Once the cotton harvest is in, and the yield is really that high, your father will be blamed too."
Shang Jie frowned and said, "Mom, what do you think my father is thinking? Why can't he trust the princess?"
He said he really couldn't understand it.
"I don't know. I tried to persuade him, but your father didn't seem to listen. In that case, I can't do anything about it." Shangwen's wife said helplessly.
Shang Jie sighed lightly and thought, forget it, since Dad is like this, then let him just ignore it.
Dad will regret it by the second half of the year.
What the mother and son did not expect was that Shangwen sent someone to monitor the situation in the palace and Jianghe Village.
Tell someone to come and tell him as soon as they have news.
Because of this, when Wang Jinhe and his men appeared in Jianghe Village, Shangwen quickly found out, especially since Wang Jinhe had already brought people to look for a place.
After Village Chief Jiang returned from the palace, he went to find several other village chiefs and told them that Wang Jinhe was going to build a workshop here.
Now that Wang Jinhe has come, several village heads are accompanying him.
"The land on the princess's side is relatively wide. It will be much more convenient if the princess wants to build a workshop." Village Chief Jiang said, pointing to a large piece of wasteland between several villages.
This place is right on the roadside and very close to several villages. It would be a great place to build a workshop.
Wang Jinhe was also very satisfied with this place.
"How do you sell this land?"
Before Village Chief Jiang could say anything, another village chief spoke up: "Princess, why are you talking about whether to sell it or not? Just use it directly. If you don't want it, no one will want it. We have to open it up slowly. It will be different if you build a workshop here. Even if only one person in the family can go to the workshop to work, it will be good."
They didn't know how big the workshop could be built. It was already a great honor for one family from several villages to come in and work.
They don't ask for anything.
As for this place, it is indeed the land of several villages. They were given a piece of land so that they can work right at their doorstep. How great is that.
Village Chief Jiang nodded in agreement: "Old Liu is right, that's exactly the case, Princess, you don't have to talk to us about the purchase."

"Okay, I won't tell you. As for the people working in the workshop, I need a lot. Later, I will build an academy where girls can go to study. After they graduate, they can go directly to the workshop to work. These are things that only girls can do. For example, a child of fourteen or fifteen years old can learn it in a year. I won't charge too much, just one or two taels of silver a year. We will take care of the rest. We will teach you until you learn it and then give you things to do."
"In the workshop on my fiefdom, those girls who learn their skills can earn more than one tael of silver in the first month. After that, those who work harder can earn five or six taels of silver a month. If they can become a manager, it is not impossible to earn ten taels of silver a month." Wang Jinhe felt that some things still needed to be agreed upon first.
Village Chief Jiang was moved, and looking at Wang Jinhe, he asked, "Princess, can the boy in the family go to the academy?"
"Of course you can, because what boys are taught is different from what girls are taught. There are masters who teach martial arts and teachers who teach reading. If you have no talent for either literature or martial arts, you can learn some carpentry. If you are good at accounting, you can learn to be an accountant. We will specifically look for teachers for these, so their tuition will be more expensive. We will only give one set of writing materials when the child enters school, and we won't take care of the rest. According to the situation in Fu'an County, it will cost about five taels of silver for you to educate a child per year." Wang Jinhe calculated all the money for them.
Village chief Jiang and village chief Liu discussed in a low voice that this was much cheaper than the tuition in the academy. The tuition in the academy was two taels of silver a month, plus the pens, ink, paper and inkstone would cost at least four or five taels of silver. Now that the princess had built an academy, it would be much more convenient for them to send their children to study, and the girls in the family could also learn a skill and then work in the workshop. This would be much better.
"This is too cheap. Princess, we will follow you to make money and send our children to school." Those who are capable can become officials, and those who are not capable can learn to read and work as accountants or carpenters, which are also good.
"Don't you think I should let your children go to school for free?" Wang Jinhe asked with a raised eyebrow.
"That's not right. It costs money for the princess to build an academy and workshop. It's only right to pay a teacher to learn skills. Besides, the tuition fees the princess charges are already very cheap. How can she let the children study for free?" If they really have such thoughts, then what kind of people have they become
They are not that shameless.
