Nangong Rong patted Feng Mulin's shoulder excitedly. "I will arrange for people to go down and ask the local officials to unconditionally cooperate with that expert."

Feng Mulin nodded and said, "In the past two years, our Feng family has never allowed a grain of food to flow out of Chuanzhou."

Nangong Rong patted Feng Mulin's shoulder excitedly, his eyes flashing with determination: "Brother Feng, I will arrange for people to go down and ensure that the local officials in Chuanzhou unconditionally cooperate with that expert to ensure that the planting of these high-yield grains can proceed smoothly."

Feng Mulin also nodded and said firmly: "In the next two years, my Feng family will do its best to ensure the food supply in Chuanzhou and will not let a single grain of food flow out. We must ensure that these high-yield grains can truly benefit the people and bring prosperity to the country."

''When the prince ascends the throne, this will be the first plan he will implement.

Their eyes met, and they both saw the firmness and determination in each other's eyes.

Nangong Rong turned around and immediately began to arrange manpower and materials, preparing to go to Chuanzhou to assist the master in grain planting.

Feng Mulin also acted quickly, mobilizing the family's strength to ensure the safety of food supply and transportation in Chuanzhou.

......

The early morning sun shines on the entrance of Taohua Village. The golden light and the bright red peach blossoms interweave together to form a beautiful picture.

The villagers of Taohua Village had already stood at the entrance of the village, waiting for Jiang Yurou's arrival.

As the sounds of horse hooves and cowbells in the distance gradually approached, the villagers became more and more excited.

After a while, Jiang Xue and her horse-drawn carriage and ox-drawn cart team slowly came into the sight of Taohua Village.

"Let's go! Don't delay."

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone rushed to the melon field, although not many of them were able to actually work in the fields.

However, this did not diminish their enthusiasm at all. After all, the round, plump and huge watermelons before their eyes were the fruits of their hard work.

In the vast melon field, the bright sunshine penetrates the thin clouds and sprinkles on the lush melon leaves like broken gold, interweaving into pieces of staggered light and shadow.

The villagers had different postures. Some squatted and looked carefully; some stood upright, thinking; some carried bamboo baskets full of heavy watermelons with steady steps; and some held sharp sickles in their hands, concentrating on cutting off the roots of the watermelon vines.

Gazing at the big round watermelons all over the ground, everyone's face was filled with happy smiles.

There is no doubt that this season belongs to the harvest season! For the simple farmers, there is nothing more worth looking forward to and longing for than a good harvest.

"It's time to harvest the melons in the garden—" Lin Zhong was shouting at the top of his lungs. When encountering such an important event, there is naturally a sense of solemn ceremony.

It is most appropriate to entrust this important task to the respected old man in the village.

Following Lin Zhongzheng's command, the huge team poured into the melon garden like a tide.

Everyone worked in pairs and worked together to roll the huge watermelon along the ground onto the sack. Then, they each held onto the two corners of the sack tightly and lifted the sack filled with watermelons together, transporting it steadily to the edge of the field. After waiting for the transport carriage to arrive, they could load it directly onto the carriage.

The entrance of Taohua Village was bustling with activity. Dozens of ox carts and more than a dozen horse carts were moving back and forth in the fields, busy loading watermelons.

The older villagers of Taohua Village gathered at the entrance of the village, watching this spectacular scene with curiosity and excitement.

One of the villagers watched the huge watermelons being carefully loaded onto the ox cart and couldn't help but say to Li Niu beside him: "Li Niu, look at this watermelon, we have never seen this kind before!"

Aunt Li nodded, her eyes full of surprise: "Yes, Xiaopang, this is the first time I've seen such a big watermelon. I heard that these watermelons are going to be sent to the town to be sold. This is really an eye-opener for our village."

Uncle Wang interrupted, "I heard that these watermelons were Miss Jiang's idea. We really benefited from her this time."

"Also, big brother! While we still have plenty of time, you can follow the cargo carriage to deliver these watermelons to the store. After arriving at the destination, you can arrange for people to come back and continue transporting the watermelons."

"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you that the accountant has already chosen the candidate under the careful planning and arrangement of Butler Chen. So, you only need to stay in the store and take care of the relevant matters. Leave the rest to Butler Chen. I will go find villagers from the same village to help complete the goods delivery work."

After all, it was just transporting the watermelons into the city, which was not too difficult and they could easily handle it with their own abilities.

"As for the selling price of watermelons, let's set it at three cents per pound. When the time comes, just explain the situation directly to the housekeeper, and he will naturally handle all matters properly and make corresponding arrangements." She explained everything she could think of to Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng nodded to show that he understood.

"Don't worry, Third Sister." Jiang Feng said confidently, "I will let the customers in the town know that the watermelons in Taohua Village are the best. Also, I will pay attention to the market trends in the town to see if our watermelons are popular and whether there is anything that needs improvement."

After hearing this, Jiang Xue was even more moved.

She knew that her eldest brother was not only a hardworking and capable person, but also a smart and visionary person.

She believes that with the efforts of her elder brother, the watermelons from Taohua Village will definitely stand out in the market.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, brother." Jiang Xue said, "I will continue to organize everyone in the village to pick watermelons to ensure a continuous supply. Let's work together to make watermelons a hot commodity in town!"

After Jiang Feng heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He looked at Jiang Xue deeply, then nodded, turned and walked towards the village entrance.

Jiang Xue looked at Jiang Feng's departing back and felt a little relieved.

She turned to look at the fields, where villagers were busy picking watermelons. She decided to go back and make sure every watermelon met the standards and could be sold smoothly.

So Jiang Xue set out for the fields again.

Three quarters of an hour later, Yunwu Town

When Jiang Feng arrived at Yunwu Town, he was attracted by the prosperous scene before him.

There are shops lining both sides of the street, with the sounds of hawking, talking and laughing one after another, forming a vivid picture of the market.

He walked through the bustling crowd, feeling excited about the upcoming watermelon business.

When he arrived at his own watermelon shop, he saw that the plaque of "Jiang's Fruit Shop" had been hung high, shining brightly in the sun.
