Chapter 173
Although it was winter, Shen Xingchen received a lot of good things one after another because of the high prices he paid.

Although she never had the purple gourd root and autumn moon grass she wanted most, she received black beans, lotus root, day lily, Jerusalem artichoke, celery, honeysuckle, flax, etc.

What pleased her most was that she finally received Chinese cabbage.

According to the grain merchant who gave her more than a dozen unrolled Chinese cabbage, this kind of seed was purchased from an overseas merchant by coincidence this spring, but the spring seed has not been able to grow well, and these are the seeds that were accidentally scattered at home. .

Although it is unwrapped loose Chinese cabbage, it is winter and there is heavy snow outside, but she has room to plant. These dozen cabbages can continue to produce, bloom, and bear seeds in the space garden that is like spring all year round.

Repeatedly, until next autumn, it can be taken out for the nearby people to plant in large quantities.

Shen Xingchen was overjoyed, and proudly gave the merchant 100 taels of silver, and promised, "If you want, I will give you priority in supplying cabbage next winter."

The businessman was overjoyed, "Then let me count the 100 taels as a deposit."

The corner of Shen Xingchen's mouth twitched, "What if I fail, and my family has too many accounts, I don't want to keep accounts."

The businessman took back the money and said with a smile, "I believe in your ability. However, I can take back the money first. I'll go back and see if I can collect more cabbage seeds."

Shen Xingchen nodded, "Yes, remember to keep it secret, lest the other party raise the price. You can just charge more, as long as the quality is good, I promise you that you will only make money and not lose money."

The businessman nods.

He is an old businessman who has been in business for many years, and he is very business-minded.

Shen Xingchen promised to supply finished cabbage next winter, which means that cabbage is an autumn and winter vegetable, and he still has a lot of time to buy cabbage seeds.

After he bought the goods, he was about to leave. Shen Xingchen asked Fifteen to come and remind him quietly, "Chinese cabbage seeds are easy to mix with rapeseed and green vegetable seeds. When buying, don't mix them up. If the other party is willing, there is doubt." You can give the lowest price first, and then make up the balance after verification.

Also, the more such scattered Chinese cabbage the better, and the quality is good, we bid ten yuan for each.If there are already wrapped cabbages, less than [-] plants, [-] Wen per plant.For more than one hundred trees, each tree is one hundred Wen, and for more than one thousand trees, each tree is thirty Wen.No more. "

The corner of the merchant's mouth twitched, "..."

Is this Chinese cabbage so delicious?

Pricing so high?
No, that's not the point.

The point is, this is priceless.

However, there is still a whole year to go, maybe... yes.

……

Fifteen had the same idea as the businessman.

The businessman didn't dare to ask casually, and Shen Xingchen couldn't be found even if he dared to ask at this time.

Fifteen dares.

He was too concerned about passing on the message just now, so he sent the businessman away and immediately turned back to ask Shen Xingchen, "Boss, is this Chinese cabbage particularly delicious?"

Shen Xingchen smiled, "...I haven't eaten it, so I don't know if it will be particularly delicious. The reason why I value it is because the "Overseas Travel Notes" said that it tastes sweet and flat, easy to grow, high yield, and durable. It can be stored and eaten in a variety of ways, such as stir-fried, vinegared, cold, marinated, stewed with meat and fish, and...wrapped...dumplings."

There are very few people who don't like cabbage dumplings.

Although Shiwu couldn't imagine the taste of Chinese cabbage, he understood what Shen Xingchen meant.

"You mean, like sweet potatoes and potatoes, if they can be planted successfully, it will greatly solve the problem of food and clothing for everyone?"

"Yes, that's what it means."

Fifteen was also very happy to get an affirmative answer.

Although he doesn't have huge ambitions, he hopes that everyone in the world can have enough food and clothing.

Finally it's New Year's Eve.

This year was warmer and more beautiful than Shen Xingchen imagined.

She originally thought that even with her help, the people in the snow-stricken area would be miserable because of their limited ability.

Unexpectedly, the folk customs in this world are not bad.

Although there are many rascals and cold-blooded people, there are many honest and benevolent people.

Of course, the fact that the emperor is quite powerful is also an important reason.

During this time, driven by her, the government and enthusiastic people are also doing disaster relief.

Because there are sleds and roller skates, the relief materials are all distributed to the victims without omission.

This year, according to the disaster victims themselves, is richer than previous years.

Since they were all rich, Shen Xingchen ordered the cook to cook a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner without any burden.

The food was distributed, she didn't do anything, but she made Lao Duo's dumpling stuffing herself.

Without cabbage, cabbage stuffing can’t be made, but mushroom stuffing, pork stuffing, beef stuffing, leek stuffing, sauerkraut stuffing, kale stuffing, zucchini stuffing…

Still delicious and hearty.

Shen Xingchen also wrapped some pre-sterilized coins in the dumplings.

When everyone heard that the person who got the coin would be lucky next year, they were even more excited.

However, after everyone finished eating the dumplings, they found that because Shen Xingchen asked the cook to pack in a lot of coins, everyone ate at least one coin, and they were speechless.

But still very happy.

That's right, following Shen Xingchen is already lucky.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Shen Xingchen began to give out red envelopes to everyone.

Every ordinary servant was given a red envelope of 100 taels of silver.

Everyone was shocked when they saw it clearly.

"Boss, this, this is too much."

"Am I delusional?"

"Boss, are you too kind to us?"

"..."

Everyone felt flattered and grateful.

They couldn't help being moved, because they were all worth less than 20 taels.

Shen Xingchen didn't think much of it.

She didn't regard these people as her servants in her heart.

Only if they are employees.

Today's money is regarded as the "company"'s New Year's bonus in exchange for a bonus. Compared with previous lives, it is not much.

But she certainly wouldn't explain it that way.

She said with a faint smile, "Everyone has worked hard during this time, and it's worth it. If everyone is really touched, take care of your body and have a good New Year. Next year we will continue to struggle...to make more money."

Everyone was very moved and amused by her last sentence.

"Earn more money"……

It's just that their boss dared to come up with it and say it in a straightforward manner.

Moreover, they all knew that she would never take advantage of money.

She does have the ability to make a lot of money, and more money.

There are more red envelopes for those who are in charge and those with small positions.

Father Lin, Lin Su, Lin Yuyan and the hidden guards each received 300 taels of silver tickets.

Lin Zhao, Lin Qing and Shiwu each received 500 taels of silver notes.

Although he was not very willing, Shen Xingchen gave Liu Qiuniang, Shen Xingrui and Shen Yunyao 600 taels each.

Xiaoxuan gave 1000 taels.

However, Xiaoxuan immediately handed it back to him, "Sister, please keep it for me."

"OK."

Shen Xingchen accepted it without pretense.

Xiaoxuan is still young, so it would be better for her to collect all the money.

Elder Han Shan, Sui Feng, Lei Xu, Village Chief Guo and his wife, Shen Xingchen gave some generous gifts.

The grandsons and granddaughters of Guo Village's head family each gave a red envelope of twelve taels, which scared the children.

She didn't give gifts to the members of the Shen family, and asked Shen Yunyao to take Xiaoxuan to the Shen family's ancestral hall and ancestral grave to clean and worship.
