Wang Yongzhu already had a number in his heart all the way, and when he saw that it was still early, he took a little rest and said that he wanted to go to the mountain to have a look.

Immediately, Lu Xiaoshan and a few other men were busy leading the way.

Slowly climb up the foot of the mountain, although there is no special mountain road, but they guard the tea mountain, and for many years, they have also walked out of a sheep intestine path.

Along the sheep intestine path, there are tea trees on both sides of the road, and the first batch may be due to the use of gene fluid, and the growth is very fast, almost two or three years old.

The second batch was slightly thinner, but they all looked very energetic.

Wang Yongzhu has a number in his heart, and it can be seen that Lu Xiaoshan is still very dedicated, and they are maintaining according to their own instructions, and they are not lazy.

I thought that the first batch would have to wait a year or two to raise the canopy, but depending on the growth, it will be enough in the second half of the year.

Wang Yongzhu nodded, called Lu Xiaoshan and them, pointed to the tea tree that was growing well, and began to instruct how to cultivate the canopy.

In this way, when the tea trees can pick the tea leaves in the future, it will save trouble after all.

Lu Xiaoshan didn't dare to blink their eyes, looking at what Wang Yongzhu was doing, his ears were also pricked up, and he didn't dare to miss a word.

Wang Yongzhu instructed him, and asked them to come forward and demonstrate them separately, although the technique was rusty, but there was nothing missing, so he was relieved.

Tell them that in the second half of the year, they can cultivate the canopy of the first batch of tea trees.

He also instructed that the bottom fertilizer of these tea leaves should also be sufficient.

Lu Xiaoshan and the others listened, and they all nodded in agreement.

After explaining these things, Wang Yongzhu was most concerned about the tea saplings that were separated from the tea mother tree.

Motioning to let Lu Xiaoshan and them go to the top of the mountain, she and Song Chongjin went to the top of the mountain.

The others tried to follow, but they were stopped by both of them.

When she got to the piece of tea seedlings that she left for the tea mother tree alone, she carefully observed that the tea seedlings were growing well, so she was relieved.

Seeing Wang Yongzhu so nervous, Song Chongjin raised his eyebrows, could it be that there is something unique about this piece of tea tree?

Seeing Song Chongjin's puzzled look, Wang Yongzhu smiled mysteriously, leaned into Song Chongjin's ear, and whispered: "This is my idea, the tea sapling secretly separated from the tea mother tree——"

Song Chongjin's eyes moved, and when he looked at these tea saplings again, he also felt that gold was expensive.

Wang Yongzhu looked at this tea sapling and couldn't help but say: "Thanks to the fact that I kept a hand at the time, otherwise the Li family would have changed the hexagram, and we wouldn't have been able to drink the tea leaves of the tea mother tree." With these tea seedlings, we will be able to cultivate for a few years, and we will have good tea in our own homes in the future! Although it is not as good as the tea mother tree, it is not much worse! ”

Song Chongjin nodded.

Speaking of the Li family, I happened to discuss with Wang Yongzhu, and there were just the two of them nearby, and there were some things to say.

"If there is no accident, Li Jiushao should come to Jing County to find us. This time the battle between the families, it seems that he has lost, but we can understand him, I am afraid that he should have prepared a backhand, otherwise he would not have left the capital so happily. ”

"I guess he's going to come together, it's probably a partnership, do you have any regulations? I have a little thought in my mind—"

When Wang Yongzhu heard this, he was very interested and motioned to Song Chongjin to say.

"When I won the lift, I once said that I would help the villagers in Qilidun, not to mention anything else, so that they can be fed and clothed, and they will not be hungry and frozen all year round."

"I started thinking that our family should do a mountain goods business, the price should be fair, and the villagers should be subsidized by one or two, that is."

"But aren't we going to Chicheng County to take office? I've studied over there, and although Chicheng County is bitterly cold, it is also an important town in the northwest. Continue to the west, the Western Regions, and to the north, there is the grassland. On the northwest grassland, everyone grows on horseback, eats beef and drinks mare's milk. ”

"It is said that on the grassland side, I love the silk and tea on the Central Plains side the most, especially in northern Yunnan, there is said to be a kind of tea brick, which is very popular with the grassland."

Speaking of which, Wang Yongzhu also understood Song Chongjin's plan.

"Are you planning to let Li Jiu Shao simply give up the capital and take root in the northwest? Transporting tea and silk from the interior of the Central Plains to the grasslands and the Western Regions to sell? ”

Song Chongjin nodded.

Wang Yongzhu frowned: "There are a lot of merchants going to the Western Regions, isn't Zhang Yinbao just a caravan running to the Western Regions?" They all already have their own caravans, and if you add it at this time, I'm afraid-"

Song Chongjin shook his head: "Everyone else goes to the Western Regions, but they don't dare to go to the grassland." Since the end of the Border Pass Campaign, which lasted for ten years, the caravans on the Central Plains and the grassland side were almost cut off, and the grassland people were fierce, without army protection, no one dared to go! It is this opportunity that Li Jiushao wants to seize. ”

"You must know that there are countless tribes of all sizes in the grassland, and if you open up the trade route of the grassland, you can reach the country of Francis faster. Compared to from the Western Regions, it saves half the time! ”

Wang Yongzhu was shocked at first, and then thought about it, this is definitely an opportunity!

Merchants are profit-seeking! As long as this trade route is opened, Li Jiushao will be able to control this trade route, and he will at least be able to sit on an equal footing with the Li family in the future.

Although Li Jiushao looks beautiful and has a proud temperament, he is extremely ambitious and means in business.

Wang Yongzhu dared to pack the ticket, if Li Jiushao was here, I am afraid he would agree without hesitation.

"But what does this have to do with helping the villagers in Qilidun? Could it be that the villagers of Qilidun followed Li Jiushao to the grassland? Wang Yongzhu frowned.

"No, I saw your tea mountain, and remembered that the grassland likes tea leaves and tea bricks. Since this tea mountain can grow tea, the mountains near Qilipo can also grow tea, right? Even if the quality of the tea grown is inferior, it can be made into tea bricks and sold to the grassland, so no one can be picky, right? This is Song Chongjin's plan.

Wang Yongzhu was stunned, this is a good idea.

She pondered in her heart, if they arrived in Chicheng County, and then united with Li Jiushao, opened up the relationship between the upper and lower levels, established a caravan, and went deep into the grassland, I am afraid it would take several years of hard work.

If you can plant tea trees near Qilidun this year, you can pick tea after three or four years, or at most five years.

The land of Qilidun is not too much, on weekdays, you only need to go up the mountain to maintain it, the spring tea harvest does not delay the spring harvest, and it can also increase the income of each family, although the effect is slow, it will take a few years, but once the tea tree can produce benefits, as long as it is properly maintained, it can have at least 20 years of income.

As long as the people of Qilidun are not stupid, this account is cost-effective.

It is estimated that the difficulty is that where did the first batch of tea seedlings come from? Tea saplings are not ordinary pear and peach fruit saplings, there are few in the local area, only in the south of the Yangtze River.

But the tea seedlings over there are transported here, and I'm afraid the price is also expensive.

I'm afraid the people of Qilidun won't be able to take out this money, so they have to find a big wronged person-
