Space Farming: Traveling through Ancient Times to Do Business

When Lin Lizheng heard this, he was secretly delighted and quickly responded, "I've already thought of this and asked A-Lin to fetch some water!"

An excited smile lit up his face, and he seemed quite proud of his foresight.

Then, Lin Lizheng shouted again: "Come on, come on, move the fruits onto the cart. Be gentle, or you may damage the cart!" While the cows were resting, he quickly organized everyone to load the goods.

Everyone worked together and carefully lifted baskets of fruit onto the cart.

The reason why they were so cautious was not because they cared about the vehicles, but because they were afraid of damaging the precious fruits.

Everyone knows the value of these fruits, so they take extra care of them.

When Jiang Xue arrived at the vineyard, she found that everyone had gathered there early and had been waiting for a long time.

The morning sun shines on the grape vines, and crystal clear grapes are dotted among the green leaves, creating a scene of a bountiful harvest.

Seeing Jiang Xue coming, everyone came forward to greet her warmly.

Several women came up to her and asked her with concern: "Miss Jiang, why are you so late? We have been waiting for you for a long time."

Jiang Xue smiled slightly and said apologetically, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long.

I was just helping pick grapefruits in the orchard, and I didn’t expect time to pass so quickly.”

"It's okay. We know you're busy." A middle-aged man said, "Miss Jiang, how do you plan to manage the grape fields? We are all waiting for your instructions."

Jiang Xue looked around at the lush grape fields and already had a plan in mind.

She pointed to the grapes hanging on the vines and said: "This vineyard looks very healthy and the grapes are plump. We have to pick them carefully and try to keep the grapes intact and fresh."

"So how do you pick them specifically?" someone asked curiously.

Jiang Xue explained: "First, we have to select those grapes with dark color and full grapes. Then, we use scissors to gently cut the grape bunches, and be careful not to pull them directly with your hands to avoid damaging the grapevines and the grapes themselves. The picked grapes should be placed in bamboo baskets or cardboard boxes, and each layer should be separated by clean cloth or paper to avoid squeezing each other."

"I understand!" Everyone nodded to show their understanding.

Next, Jiang Xue explained in detail the matters that need to be paid attention to during the picking process, including how to keep the grapes fresh and how to avoid damage to the grapes.

Everyone listened very carefully, nodding or asking questions from time to time.

Under Jiang Xue's guidance, everyone began to pick grapes in an orderly manner.

"Miss Jiang, are all these grapes being sent to the city?" Lin Lizheng asked curiously, looking at the garden full of grapes.

Jiang Xue smiled and shook her head, and replied: "No, most of these grapes will be sent to Uncle Zhong. I plan to use them to make wine, and a small part will be sent to the city."

"Winemaking?" Lin Lizheng was slightly stunned, but then he showed an understanding smile on his face, "Oh, I see. Then I will arrange for someone to send the grapes to Ah Zhong."

Jiang Xue nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I'll go check on the other orchards first. I remember the kiwis should be ripe soon."

Lin Lizheng responded immediately: "Yes, the kiwis are almost ready. Don't worry, we have arranged for people to go to the kiwi fields and prepare for picking."

Jiang Xue looked at him gratefully, her eyes sparkling with joy, and said, "Great, I'll be there now!" Her voice was full of anticipation and excitement.

Throughout the afternoon, the sun shone on the orchard, as if injecting vitality and vigor into the land.

Jiang Xue led the villagers to work in the orchard.

They shuttled through the paths lined with fruit trees, and everyone's face was filled with the joy of hard work.

Except for oranges that have to wait until the Chinese New Year to ripen, other fruits such as grapefruit, grapes, pears, kiwis, etc. have already reached the harvest season.

As the afterglow of the setting sun faded, night fell quietly. However, the orchard was brightly lit, illuminating the mountains of various fruits.

These fruits are brightly colored, fragrant, and mouth-watering.

The branches are full of grapefruits, the bunches of grapes are crystal clear, and the oranges are as red as children's smiling faces.

On this beautiful afternoon, Jiang Xue and the villagers worked together and reaped rich rewards.

They exchanged their sweat and hard work for a full sense of accomplishment and hope for the future.

This orchard has become a part of their lives, witnessing their efforts and gains.

Sichuan Province

In the lobby of Sichuan Province, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The governor, Liu Zhe, sat in the first seat, his brows furrowed, his eyes scanning the officials below with sharp gazes.

"Who is in charge of Yun County?" There was a hint of unquestionable majesty in Liu Zhezhen's voice.

When County Magistrate Wang heard his name, he was startled and stood up quickly: "Sir, it's me."

Liu Zhezhen glanced at Prefect Wang coldly and asked, "Do you know that a village under your Yun County has produced high-yield grain?"

County Magistrate Wang was stunned, apparently knowing nothing about this news: "What high-yield grain?"

Liu Zhezhen's brows furrowed even more tightly. He slammed the table hard, his voice filled with anger: "Even the big shots in the capital know about this, and you told me you don't know!"

County Magistrate Wang was so frightened that he trembled and hurriedly explained, "Sir, I really don't know about this. Could it be those shops and some strange things that were opened some time ago? But they are just strange, not high-yield grain."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Liu Zhezhen's eyes. "Wang Zhifei, you are so good. You do nothing in the government office every day. You don't even know what happened in the place under your jurisdiction. I think you don't want to be an official anymore."

Magistrate Wang's face froze. He knew that his position was in danger, so he begged for mercy: "Sir, I know I was wrong. I will ask someone to investigate when I get back."

However, Liu Zhezhen had already lost his patience: "No need, you will exchange positions with County Magistrate Zhou this afternoon."

When County Magistrate Wang heard this, his face turned pale and he wanted to say something else, but when he saw Liu Zhezhen's unquestionable look, he could only swallow his words and nodded his head.

In the conference room, other officials also felt Liu Zhezhen's anger and kept their heads down in silence, fearing that they would get into trouble.

"Sir, the tax payment is coming soon. I will personally lead people to visit the villages under Yun County." Zhou Yisheng stood up.

Liu Zhezhen looked at him and nodded. He was also a capable general under the Prince's Party. It was naturally the intention of his superiors to put Yun County in his charge.
