Sweet Dreams in Famine Years: The System Leads to a Brilliant Life

"Ms. Zeng, do you really agree to sell some of these potato seeds to us?" Village Chief Chen asked in disbelief.

Zeng Zhengen nodded, and then said: "Of course I am willing. After all, we all live in the same village. Why can't I sell some seeds to you?"

"Ms. Zeng, you are such a good person!" The villagers of Fulai Village hurriedly said good things to Zeng Zhengen.

After everyone complimented Zeng Zhengen, they began to ask about the price.

Zeng Zhengen thought for a moment and then spoke.

"Let's calculate the price of potato seeds at ten cents per pound!"

When Village Chief Chen and the villagers heard the price, they all gasped.

The price is ten cents per pound, which is almost as high as that of old rice.

"Ms. Zeng, do you think the price is a bit expensive?" Village Chief Chen said after careful consideration.

"That's right, Miss Zeng, do you think the price can be a little cheaper?" The other villagers also spoke up.

"This pound of old rice only costs ten cents!"

Zeng Zhengen glanced at everyone calmly, then took out a pound of potatoes.

"Here is a pound of potatoes, three in total. If it's a bigger potato, there are only two. But you can see that this potato can be cut into four or five pieces, and there will be four or five potatoes when planted. If one potato yields two pounds, then a pound of potato seeds can grow more than twenty pounds of potatoes."

After hearing Zeng Zhengen's words, the villagers also began to calculate in their minds.

After a while, after some measurement, the villagers stopped talking.

Although potato seeds are indeed a bit expensive at ten cents per pound, they only buy them once. If they want to plant potatoes again, they can save the seeds for themselves.

It was because they realized this that the villagers stopped talking.

"Okay, then let's calculate the price based on ten cents per pound." Village Chief Chen finally made the decision.

After the price was negotiated, Zeng Zhengen asked Village Chief Chen to count how many seeds they needed in total, and then come to her to buy them after the count was completed.

After thanking Zeng Zhengen, Village Chief Chen took the villagers of Fulai Village and left Zeng Zhengen's house.

After Village Chief Chen and others left, Zeng Zhengen spoke to Pan Yang again.

"Uncle Pan, tell the villagers of Fulai Village that they want to buy potato seeds from us. Tell them that if anyone wants to sell potato seeds, they can send the seeds to me."

Although Zeng Zhengen could also buy so many seeds in the system mall, Zeng Zhengen did not intend to buy seeds from the system mall.

After all, the villagers have just settled down here and they are in need of money. Although they can't make much money from selling potato seeds, it can at least relieve the pressure on the villagers.

After hearing Zeng Zhengen's words, Pan Yang hurried to inform the villagers.

"Okay, Zeng girl, I'll go tell the villagers right away."

The villagers originally didn't want to sell them. After all, the potato seeds were given to them by Zeng Zhengen. They thought that if they sold the seeds, they would be letting Zeng Zhengen down.

Only after listening to Pan Yang's explanation did the villagers agree to sell the potato seeds.

"Okay, since it was arranged by Zeng Yatou, let's take some out and sell them."

In this way, one villager took out dozens of kilograms of seeds, and in a short while they had collected hundreds of kilograms of seeds.

Village chief Chen also registered the needed potato seeds, and then took the money from the villagers to buy seeds and came to Zeng Zhengen's house again.

Afterwards, the two village heads began to check the accounts at Zeng Zhengen's house. After the potato seeds were distributed, Zeng Zhengen explained to Village Head Chen what he should pay attention to when planting potatoes.

Finally, after the villagers of Fulai Village received the potato seeds, they were all grateful to Zeng Zhengen.

After buying potato seeds, the villagers of Fulai Village waited for the spring to come to plant them.

With the arrival of winter, the weather is getting colder.

Zeng Zhengen's skin care products also opened up the market in Jinzhou City. Zeng Zhengen later went to the medicinal fields on Lantau Island, picked a lot of medicinal herbs, and then made dozens of sets of skin care products.

However, Zeng Zhengen did not personally deliver the dozens of sets of skin care products this time to Ningzhifang. Instead, Li Xueyu came to pick them up personally.

Li Xueyu had just arrived at Zeng Zhengen's house, and she couldn't wait to tell Zeng Zhengen about a piece of gossip she had encountered today.

Because she had to come to Fulai Village to pick up skin care products today, Li Xueyu got up earlier than usual.

But when she was leaving the palace, she heard many people talking about someone going to Prince Liang's palace to cause trouble.

Out of curiosity, Li Xueyu went over to take a look. When she went over, the Prince Liang's Mansion was already surrounded by three layers of enemies.

Li Xueyu didn't squeeze in, but just listened outside for a while.

Then they heard a man accusing the Liang Palace, saying that the housekeeper of the Liang Palace had hidden his sister-in-law and was using the name of the Liang Palace to prevent his sister-in-law from meeting them.

The man spoke with great confidence, and many of the onlookers believed what he said.

Therefore, many onlookers stood up and condemned the steward of Prince Liang's mansion.

In the end, because the commotion was so loud, the steward of Prince Liang's mansion had to come out to explain.

But the people would not listen to the housekeeper's explanation. As soon as Housekeeper Chen came out, the people threw rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at him.

In the end, the steward of Prince Liang's mansion went back in a shabby state.

Originally, Li Xueyu wanted to join in the fun, but when she thought about the fact that she had to come to Fulai Village to get skin care products today, she didn't dare to delay any longer.

"Oh! It's such a pity that I couldn't see the end of such a big show." Li Xueyu said with regret on her face.

"Why don't you go back now, maybe you can still catch it!" Zeng Zhengen joked with a smile.

Li Xueyu waved her hand and said, "Forget it. Even if I rush back, I may not be able to see it. I'd better not waste my energy."

After that, Li Xueyu chatted with Zeng Zhengen for a long time. At noon, Zeng Zhengen invited Li Xueyu to have lunch at his home.

Li Xueyu was already envious of Zeng Zhengen's cooking skills, so naturally she would not refuse.

After lunch, Li Xueyu sat for a long time before reluctantly leaving Fulai Village.

After Li Xueyu left, Zeng's mother came over.

"Mom, why are you here? Have you eaten?"

Zeng Zhengen was sitting in the house warming himself by the fire when he saw Zeng's mother coming over. He quickly got up and pulled Zeng's mother to sit next to the brazier.

It is winter now. Although this is in the south, it is still a bit cold in winter. However, unlike in the north, every household here does not have a kang, so if it is cold, we can only look at the brazier to keep warm.
