Chapter 174: One thousand pounds of wheat per mu

"Miss Xiao, I am Toto, I have long admired your name!" Toto is not a tall and handsome man from the prairie. On the contrary, he is very elegant and elegant.

"Hello, Thirteenth Prince!" Xiao Yingchun nodded.

When Toto heard this, he laughed: "When I asked people to pass the message, I was just below the pass, so it would be faster to come up."

Fu Zhonghai stared at Toto with a dark face, as if to protect the food: "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't delay our meal."

Toto glanced at Fu Zhonghai and Fu Chenan. The father and son were sitting on the left and right sides of Xiao Yingchun respectively, protecting Xiao Yingchun very well.

Toto was obedient: "Miss Xiao, just call me Toto."

"I met Miss Xiao today. I really have something I want to ask Miss Xiao to clarify, and I also want to do some business with Miss Xiao."

Xiao Yingchun raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "Please speak."

"Marshal Fu and I wanted to replace the iron basins, but now they are all... plastic basins."

"Although this is good, it doesn't work well with an iron basin. I would like to ask if it can be replaced with an iron basin?"

"I'd pay twice as much."

When saying this, Totto gave Fu Zhonghai a slightly aggrieved look: You didn't say that at the beginning!
Xiao Yingchun coughed: "No."

"Why?" Toto asked gently, as if he was really just curious.

Xiao Yingchun looked at Fu Chenan: Can you tell the truth?
Fu Chenan: I can speak.

Xiao Yingchun looked at Toto sincerely: "Because we discussed it and were afraid that you would melt the iron basin to make weapons."

Toto:! ! !
It doesn’t have to be so real.

Toto tried to explain: "I am not warlike. Marshal Fu knows this."

Fu Zhonghai decisively demolished the situation: "I can't believe what you are saying."

Toto: ...Forget it, next item.

"I also want to know, apart from plastic basins and buckets, Miss Xiao, what else can be bought and sold here? For example, those...biscuits? Or something else?"

Fu Zhonghai also refused to trade biscuits this time, and only traded plastic basins and plastic buckets.

Xiao Yingchun thought for a while: "You have to ask Marshal Fu about the biscuits. For other things... do you want salt?"

With the advancement of science and technology and the development of the times, salt in the new era is almost inexhaustible, and this can be supplied in unlimited quantities.

But in ancient times, salt and iron were in short supply.

Toto's eyes lit up: "Yes!"

"Excuse me, what's the price? Or what does Miss Xiao want to exchange for?"

Xiao Yingchun pointed at Fu Zhonghai: "You negotiate the price with him, he has full authority to make the decision."

When it comes to black-heartedness, Fu Zhonghai is much more black-hearted than himself.

The right person does the right thing!
Fu Zhonghai showed an unabashedly proud smile at the right time.

Miss Xiao's heart is towards herself, and she doesn't want to "take advantage of both sides".

This discovery made Fu Zhonghai particularly happy.

Toto was discouraged for a moment, but within a few seconds, he regained his composure and said, "Is there any tea here for Miss Xiao to trade?"

Grassland tribes eat beef and mutton all year round, and nobles like to drink brick tea, which can help digestion.

Xiao Yingchun thought about the chattering tea anchors on various live broadcast platforms, and nodded again: "Yes!"

Toto asked again: "Don't know how to trade?"

Xiao Yingchun pointed to Fu Zhonghai again: "Negotiate the price with him."

Fu Zhonghai smiled again.

Toto:! ! !
Suddenly I felt very offended for coming here!
Fu Zhonghai is really smiling too proudly... He is middle-aged and holds a high position of power. Don't people in the Central Plains pay attention to the depth of their city? Is it appropriate for a marshal like you to be so arrogant? !
But after hearing Xiao Yingchun say that he had the two most important things, Toto felt confident.

He cheered up: "I wonder what else Miss Xiao can sell to my Tatar people?"

Xiao Yingchun thought for a while: "Cloth. Pearls. Rouge and gouache. Soap."

Anyway, when it comes to war, iron must be cautious.

"I heard from Marshal Fu that Miss Xiao can still trade grain seeds?"

Xiao Yingchun looked at Fu Zhonghai, and seeing Fu Zhonghai nodding, she also nodded: "Yes, our seeds are better, and the yield is much higher than your seeds..."

Toto asked about wheat seeds.

Xiao Yingchun nodded: "There are wheat seeds. What is the yield of one acre of land here?"

Toto: "Two or three hundred catties?"

Xiao Yingchun had a hint of pride on his face: "I can get you wheat seeds with a yield of one thousand kilograms per mu."

Toto's mouth opened in an "O" shape, thinking he heard wrongly.

Xiao Yingchun nodded affirmatively: "Yes, it's one thousand catties."

Toto swallowed: "When can I get this seed?"

The yield of wheat seeds in the Liang Dynasty was only two to three hundred kilograms per mu. If the yield could be increased to one thousand kilograms per mu, the people would be full!
What else is there to fight? !
Xiao Yingchun looked at Fu Zhonghai and was about to say, "Marshal Fu has the final say," but he saw Fu Zhonghai's expression became serious.

"It's the wheat sowing season now. If it's convenient for Miss Xiao, why not give us the seeds as soon as possible?"

This is something related to people's livelihood. If it can be planted earlier, when there is no shortage of food on the grassland, there is no need to risk death to plunder the food of the people of Liang Dynasty.

Only the people of the Liang Dynasty could live a stable life without suffering from Tatar plunder!

Toto also nodded repeatedly, looking eager.

Xiao Yingchun thought for a while: "Then I will send a message over there immediately and ask them to get the seeds as soon as possible."

Fu Zhonghai's expression softened a little and he looked at Toto: "I guess the Thirteenth Prince won't mind the price, right?"

Toto nodded solemnly: "Of course I won't mind!"

If you can produce a thousand kilograms per acre, it is worth it no matter how expensive the seeds are.

After all, wheat can keep its own seeds, and "sons beget sons, sons beget grandchildren, and descendants will be endless."

After talking about the wheat seeds, the dishes were served, and everyone ate first.

After a big meal of meat, Xiao Yingchun had eaten the most... Fu Zhonghai and Toto were left to continue negotiating the price, while Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan returned to the Marshal's Mansion first.

The two of them entered the courtyard and closed the door. Fu Chenan frowned and was a little worried: "Will it be troublesome if you agree to so many things at once today?"

Xiao Yingchun smiled: "It's okay. I'll go back and ask someone to prepare it. You can get it in a few days."

There was a curfew in Daliang Dynasty, but not in Wolong Villa.

Xiao Yingchun returned to Wolong Villa and started contacting seeds and salt with her mobile phone...

After the contact is completed, I have time to read the information.

Huang Li sent a message, saying that he was scheduled to leave for Parli, Country F, in a week, and asked Xiao Yingchun to go there four days in advance to apply for a visa.

Xiao Yingchun calculated the time and replied "Okay".

He Liangcong sent a message to Xiao Yingchun, but it was about hiring a bodyguard.

It is necessary to have a bodyguard when going to Paris, and they plan to buy so many things, so having a bodyguard will give them peace of mind.

He Liangcong was afraid that Xiao Yingchun wanted to use Wang Yongjun, so he specifically explained to her: "Wang Yongjun is a good person, but I don't want to use him this time."

"He's too hot-tempered and doesn't want to offend anyone, but he's not professional enough..."
