She planted only a little, yet one manor harvested several thousand jin, and combining the three manors yielded over ten thousand jin.
Even if sold at thirty coins per jin, she could earn over 200 taels.
It’s worth noting that potatoes don’t require good land to grow, ordinary land suffices, even sandy soil works, the cultivation conditions are not demanding, and the yield isn’t low, isn’t it just a good thing.
After reading the above, which not only included precautions and thods for potato cultivation but also featured realistic drawings of potatoes, Ye Muyu found it quite interesting.
In this era without photographs, realist painters could probably find a job at the Official Gazette Office.
After finishing the agricultural section.
Ye Muyu habitually glanced at the current affairs gossip, located to the left of the political current affairs section.
After reading the headline above, her expression turned a bit peculiar.
Especially with the word ’tragedy’ followed by ’night eting’, there was a feeling of stumbling upon soone’s deep secret.
Even Ye Muyu couldn’t help being a bit gossipy.
Upon reading the content below.
She couldn’t hold back and started laughing directly.
Su Lan and a few maidservants looked at her in surprise.
"Pour a cup of tea," Ye Muyu almost choked, as she was eating an egg while reading this piece of gossip.
Su Lan hurriedly poured her so tea.
Ye Muyu quickly took a sip, swallowed the egg entirely, and felt much more comfortable.
While pounding her chest, she continued reading the gossip.
The gossip was straightforward.
The brothel reported to the authorities about so missing girls, only to find Young Master Qi eting with a ’respectable woman’ at an abandoned house, and this ’respectable woman’ even called the drunken Young Master Qi ’Lord Chu.’ Moreover, this respectable woman was causing trouble in public under Lord Chu’s na, amassing many debts, and when caught having a private eting, Chu Heng was in a teahouse.
Not only that, the person who wrote this article was very amusing, honestly presenting the respectable woman’s confession and discovering that she intentionally deceived young n for silver.
In the end, the respectable woman was sentenced to two years, while the shops that extended her credit had to close for a month due to non-standard credit procedures, with the debt being repaid from the silver found in the respectable woman’s ho.
Ye Muyu could tell that the writer likely intended to clear Chu Heng’s na and also serve as a warning to others.
Especially at the end, there were Chu Heng’s words accompanied by his seal.
Chu Heng stated there would be no credit, and his family already had a loving wife, with family rules allowing concubines only if no child by thirty, urging everyone to behave, and also stating that if any rchants were similarly deceived, they could report to the yan imdiately.
He spoke decisively and firmly, not fearing a loss of face at all, Ye Muyu could imagine the public uproar at this mont, with the people’s focus eventually falling on the family rule.
As for soone impersonating Chu Heng to obtain credit, such gossip wouldn’t be rembered for long before it’s forgotten.
But for a current third-grade official to declare that their family rule is concubines only if no child by thirty shocked both ordinary citizens and nobles alike.
Nobles thought Chu Heng was not a real man for foolishly proclaiming such family rules, as it hard his descendants.
However, so governnt wives in the capital, especially those with sons around Chu Jin’s age, were stirred with thoughts of marriage.
