The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

Off-season planting is Xie Shuting's strong point. After all, she was a Ph.D. from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences before she traveled through time.

If it weren't for the difference in social status, she would have gone to the fields herself long ago. Why would she bother teaching the concept of hybridization to those farmers in Jiangnan?

Growing vegetables in winter is very simple for him. He just needs to control the indoor temperature and control the carbon dioxide emissions.

If there is no greenhouse, you can use ground dragons. The vegetables do not need to carry out photosynthesis. They can be picked after they sprout and grow to the size of a palm.

A plate of vegetables that cost ten cents in the summer was reduced to eighty cents in the winter, but even so many merchants still flocked to it.

The entire chamber of commerce adheres to Xie Shuting's iron rule of business: if you want to make money, you have to make money from rich people. Making money from poor people will cause the industry to go downhill.

At first, the eight shopkeepers were a little confused, but as the financial reports of the Lian family merchants increased year by year, they were completely convinced.

As for the vegetables for breakfast, Xie Shuting had asked Uncle Qin to go to Yuelai Inn and fetch them early in the morning.

The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren chatted for a while. Xie Shuting looked at the sun hanging high outside and said softly, "Grandfather! Today, your granddaughter will take you to stroll around the city."

"Okay! Grandfather will follow Shu Ting's arrangements today." Xie Zhenghong stroked his beard and laughed out loud.

Xie Ningzhi didn't like to join in the fun, so he used the excuse of going to Bian Jing and made an appointment to say goodbye to a few friends in the city today.

Naturally, no one had any objections, so Xie Ningzhi took the opportunity to apologize and quickly left the living room.

Xie Tingwen looked at the time, then slowly stood up and said, "Father! I have to go to a private school today, so I can't accompany you."

"It's okay. Shu Ting is here to accompany me. You guys can do whatever you need to do."

Xie Zhenghong waved his hand nonchalantly, and then said with a smile: "Shu Ting! Grandfather is at your disposal today."

"Okay!" Xie Shuting responded readily.

Lian Xi tactfully walked to the door, told the maid to quickly harness the carriage, and then drove the carriage to the gate of the county government office.

In just a moment, Xie Shuting took Xie Zhenghong on the carriage. Xie Chen drove the car and Lian Xi sat on the shaft, and they drove towards the city.

The other guards were arranged to rest in the county government office. After all, with Lian Xi's skills and Xie Chen's eyesight, there would be no problems in the city.

As the carriage drove through the street, Xie Zhenghong lifted the curtain and looked at the dazzling array of shops on both sides of the street, feeling very happy.

At the same time, he also saw a familiar figure. It was the vendor who was selling walnuts yesterday. He was still occupying a seat today, holding his hand and looking around at the passers-by.

Xie Shuting followed Xie Zhenghong's gaze and noticed the vendor. She said with a smile, "Grandfather! It was from him that I bought the walnuts yesterday!"

"Is this your way of doing business?"

"Yeah!~"

Xie Shuting nodded without hesitation and said, "Grandfather! Money is a dead thing. If it is not circulated, it will not have any value. If they can make money, why should the government worry about taxation?"

"Aren't you afraid that they will take the money to Laigu County?"

Xie Shuting smiled evilly and shook her head, saying, "As long as the people are in Laigu County, their money is in Laigu County. Besides, my granddaughter is registered at the city gate, so she is not without a leader."

"You!~"

Xie Zhenghong gently tapped Xie Shuting's forehead and couldn't help laughing out loud: "You have too many tricks. It seems that your grandfather was right to arrange you to be with your father."

"But Shu Ting wants to accompany her grandfather." Xie Shu Ting muttered playfully.

Xie Zhenghong was the only family member who knew her background first, and was also the one who fully supported her at the beginning. Naturally, she didn't need to pretend her past coldness in front of Xie Zhenghong anymore.

"Hey!~"

Xie Zhenghong sighed softly, patted Xie Shuting's arm, and said with emotion: "It's a pity that our Shuting is a girl. Otherwise, you would definitely have a place in the court."

"Don't worry, Grandfather."

Xie Shuting immediately said in a serious tone: "Although my granddaughter can't do anything, I will definitely encourage my brother to bring honor to the Xie family."

"Okay, okay, then grandpa will be waiting."

A hearty laugh suddenly rang out from the carriage, and Lian Xi and Xie Chen, who were sitting on the shaft, smiled at each other, because they had not seen such a joyful atmosphere for a long time.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise coming from the front, instantly blocking the originally congested street. Xie Chen had no choice but to rein in his horse and stop.

"Hey!~"

After Xie Chen stopped the carriage, he leaned back slightly and whispered, "Master! There seems to be a quarrel ahead. We may have to wait for a while."

Not long after, Xie Zhenghong lifted the curtain and said, "It's okay, we'll go down and take a walk, you just drive the car and follow us."

"Yes!~" Xie Chen responded and quickly took the stirrup.

Lian Xi was quick to act. He helped the two masters get off the carriage and followed closely behind. Xie Chen sat on the shaft and followed from a distance.

When Xie Zhenghong got closer, he realized that it was a group of people gathered around a small stall, arguing non-stop.

"Look carefully, this piece of calligraphy is worth at least fifty strings of cash. Isn't it a bit too much to give me fifteen strings of cash?" a scholar said angrily.

On the other hand, the stall owner, facing the accusations of the crowd, still said nonchalantly: "My dear guest, I am doing business. It is said that you sell and I buy. Fifteen strings of cash is the highest price I can offer."

"you......"

The scholar was too angry to speak out, so he calmed himself down a bit and pointed at the calligraphy and painting in his hand and said, "Even if I starve to death, I will never sell my heirlooms at a low price."

"Okay! Young master has great integrity. If you want to sell it to me, I will buy it. The price is still fifteen strings of cash as before." The stall owner continued calmly.

Xie Tingwen stood aside, looking at the calligraphy and paintings that were quite similar to those of Wang Youjun, and felt a sense of joy in his heart.

Xie Shuting noticed Xie Zhenghong's intention and hurriedly whispered, "Grandfather! If you like it, I'll let Lian Xi buy it, but don't ask now."

Xie Zhenghong instantly understood what Xie Shuting meant. He nodded happily and said no more, just acting like a well-behaved spectator.

Obviously, due to the difference in silver money, the scholar and the stall owner did not reach an agreement in the end, and the two parties left without disturbing each other.

The scholar rolled up the scroll and just as he walked out of the crowd, Lian Xi came up to him quickly, bowed and said, "Sir, may I know if the calligraphy and painting in your hand can be sold?"

"Yeah!~"

The scholar looked at Lian Xi warily, and seeing that she was well-dressed, he quickly returned the greeting and said, "I wonder how much the young lady wants? I think the young lady has seen the farce just now."

"I don't know whether the things are good or bad. My master and young lady like them."

As Lian Xi spoke, he pointed at Xie Zhenghong who was sitting in the teahouse and said, "My master is over there. I wonder if this young master would be able to move over and have a chat?"

The scholar glanced at Xie Zhenghong, pondered for a moment, then nodded and followed Lian Xi to the teahouse.
