"I'm here today for no other reason than to plant cotton. Last year we were the ones who raised cotton seedlings, but this year there are too many people who want to plant cotton, and we can't keep up with the breeding. So I thought you should inform the prefect about this, and we will distribute cotton seeds in the county office. Then I will have someone come over to teach the people how to raise cotton seedlings."
When the county magistrate heard what Wang Jinhe said, he immediately understood what she meant. However, this was still a good thing. After all, the princess was pregnant and had a lot of things to do, so there was nothing wrong with this arrangement.
"I will go and talk to the prefect about this matter when there is no problem. We will notify him, but when do you think is a good time, Madam?"
"It is indeed difficult to take care of all the people in Fu'an County. So I will give you instructions. I will send someone to the county town with seeds, and then distribute the seeds and grow seedlings at the county government office over there." Wang Jinhe originally wanted to ask the people to come, but now he thinks this is simply unrealistic. It would be better to do it in several locations, which will be faster.
"Can."
Wang Jinhe discussed some other matters with the county magistrate, including the seeds and seedling cultivation, and left only after they confirmed the time.
After returning home, Wang Jinhe called over the dozen experts who were planting cotton and said, "After that, you will be divided into groups of two and take cotton seeds to several places around to teach the people how to breed. Can you do it?"
"Ma'am, rest assured that we will be able to complete the task."
Wang Jinhe smiled and nodded: "Very good, then you guys get ready and leave tomorrow."
"yes."
The county magistrate and the prefect were also very quick. After Wang Jinhe arranged things, they passed the news down. When the people learned that Wang Jinhe was going to sell cotton seeds to them at a low price, they were very happy. They had been waiting for this for half a year.
People who grew cotton made a lot of money last year, so they had been looking forward to it for a long time.
The people who heard the news have been waiting for the arrival of cotton seeds.
About ten days later, everyone was in place and all the cotton seeds were in place.
Several county offices in Fu'an County were crowded with people.

While registering the planting area, the seeds were weighed out. After all the people had received the seeds, the people sent by Wang Jinhe began to teach them how to breed.
The people studied very seriously and asked questions promptly when they didn't understand something.
In addition, the people who educated them on how to plant the cotton plants also told them how to plant and how to maintain them, as well as what the distance between the cotton plants should be.
The teaching was very serious and careful, which made the people very grateful.
"This is what we need to do in the early stages of cotton production. As for what we need to do later, we will teach you separately."
"Okay, thank you."
"Does anyone have any questions? If not, we will go back and report."
"It's all right now."
"Well then we'll go back first. Everyone, remember to not forget about breeding." Several people looked at those present with concern and said.
“We all remember that.”

Seeing that everyone really remembered the purpose of education, he said goodbye and left.
When leaving, he also took away the registration of the planted area.
The people who had gone to teach the people how to plant crops came back and handed the book with the area registered to Wang Jinhe: "Madam, you are all here."
"Okay, you guys have worked hard, go and rest first."
"yes."
Wang Jinhe took the notebook and flipped through it. After reading it, he had a general understanding of this year's cotton production.
"I told you to take a rest but you started watching again?" Su Yu came in and looked at Wang Jinhe and said helplessly.
Wang Jinhe turned and looked at Su Yu: "It's the cotton planting area this year."
"How many?"
"In total, there are more than 2,000 acres of land. Most people cultivate one or two acres, and then three or four acres. There are very few who cultivate more than five acres, but it's about the same."

Together with the cotton they have, there should be about 200,000 kilograms, which is relatively enough.
"That's about enough."
"Yes, have you chosen the place to plant the medicinal herb Astragalus?" Wang Jinhe turned his head and looked at Su Yu and asked.
Su Yu smiled and nodded: "He has already chosen the hillside behind Hulu Village. It is very suitable for growing medicinal herbs. The key is that it is hidden enough. No one will know if we grow them there. But we still need to go to Hulu Village and buy the hillside."
"What does it matter? We have a good relationship with Hu Lin. He will definitely sell it to us if we ask." Wang Jinhe said very confidently.
Su Yu had a smile in her eyes: "If you are right, they will indeed agree to sell it to us."
Wang Jinhe originally planned to go and talk to Hu Lin by himself, but Su Yu refused to do so. In the end, the two of them took a step back and Su Yu accompanied Wang Jinhe.
Hulu Village has changed a lot now. It is no longer the poor little mountain village it used to be. Now Hulu Village has become very good. Even the villagers of the former Lin Village are living better and better with the help of Hu Lin and others, and there are fewer disputes.
The two took Yuanbao to Hu Lin's house. When they saw Wang Jinhe and the others coming, Hu Lin was surprised at first and then delighted: "Why are you here, County Master? If there is anything, just let Old Xie come and inform me."
The county princess came here even though she was pregnant. What if something happened

Wang Jinhe looked at the village chief helplessly and said with a headache: "Village chief, don't treat me like a porcelain doll. I'm fine."
"What's the matter with the county lady coming here?" Hu Lin saw that he couldn't argue with Wang Jinhe and could only ask helplessly.
Wang Jinhe raised his eyebrows and looked at Hu Lin: "Can't I just come here to play?"
"If the county lord's husband comes here to play, he will definitely not let you come." Hu Lin said firmly.
Su Yu laughed softly, and had to admit that Hu Lin was right.
If Wang Jinhe hadn't insisted on coming in person, he would definitely not have let anyone come to Hulu Village.
Wang Jinhe coughed lightly and stopped chatting and got down to business: "I plan to buy the hillsides behind your village."
One hillside may not be enough to plant medicinal herbs, so just plant a few more.
"Ah? Buy a hillside? There are weeds and rocks all over it. What are you going to do with it, County Lady?"
"My husband owns a herbal medicine shop, and we plan to buy a hillside to grow some herbs."

Wang Jinhe dared to tell Hu Lin because he was sure that he would not tell anyone.
"That's three hundred taels for each hillside. There are four hills in total, so one thousand and eleven will be enough." Hu Lin thought for a while and said.
Wang Jinhe knew the price of the hillside, and he found it a little funny to hear Hu Lin's words: "Village Chief, you are selling it to me at a low price."
Hu Lin waved his hand and said, "If the county lady doesn't want those hillsides, no one will be interested in them."
"I'll take it all. I'll ask the village chief to find some people to clean up the weeds and rocks on the hillside. I'll pay them 80 cents a day, but I won't provide food."
