Chapter 322 I want to become your teacher
Yu Wanru tilted her head and snorted unhappily. Yu Muqing was very troubled by this child's temperament. He didn't want to bring her here in the first place, but she had to come along because of some unknown reason she got the news.
She only got to know the woman in front of her recently because of the potato incident. She didn't expect that they had already met last year, when she was still an unknown person.
In less than a year, not only did she become the adopted daughter of Mr. Jiang, the prefect of Qingzhou, but she also went out to sea and brought back so many seeds to plant, and she actually managed to grow them.
She could foresee that agriculture would undergo earth-shaking changes in the next few years.
So when she learned that Zhiwei Restaurant was opening today, she asked someone to book a private room and invited her colleagues to have lunch at noon, and to come and see if she was there to see what a remarkable woman she was.
At first glance, he has a handsome face, a slender and powerful figure, a faint smile on the corners of his mouth, and his whole body is as warm and comfortable as the breeze in March.
"Mr. Lin is too polite. It's just a small favor. My child is naughty. Mr. Lin, please forgive me."
This was an acknowledgement of her help.
"Ling Qianjin is lively, cute, innocent, helpful and very likable."
Yu Wanru's lips curled up again, she couldn't suppress her joy at all. She didn't expect that this elder sister had such good taste.
The two of them were humble again. After Lin Jiaojiao learned from Lin Dadan the name of the private room they had booked, she immediately took the people upstairs.
"Sir, please take a seat and have some snacks first. Do you want to order now or wait?"
Lin Jiaojiao stood at the door and asked considerately, and Zeng Yiyi brought in the free snacks, desserts and tea with the waiter.
Yu Wanru's eyes lit up when she saw the potato chips, but because her mother was there, she could only resist the urge to reach out for them.
"Sorry to bother Mr. Lin. I'll order when everyone is here."
"Okay, I'll be out first then."
Yu Muqing stood up when she saw her leaving, "Mr. Lin, please wait, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"
Of course, Lin Jiaojiao was happy to lend a hand and build a good relationship with the official, so that the business would go much more smoothly.
"My lord please."
Yu Muqing whispered to his men to keep an eye on Yu Wanru, and then followed Lin Jiaojiao out.
When Yu Wanru saw her mother leave, she immediately stood up from the stool, put her hands on the table, and leaned forward to grab the potato chips opposite. At this time, the table turned to the left, and she almost fell down because she didn't stand firmly. Fortunately, the men next to her supported her.
"Is the second young lady okay?"
After Yu Wanru stood firm, she looked at the large round table in front of her with surprise. She asked why the table had two layers and the top layer could actually rotate.
She curiously pushed her hand to the right until the potato chips on the opposite side were turned in front of her. She could no longer hold back and exclaimed.
"This is amazing! A small restaurant has a mechanical table. This must be a master!"
Lin Jiaojiao didn't know that she was once again regarded as a hidden master. She led Yu Muqing to the lounge with a smile. The waiter quickly brought tea, but when he was about to pour the tea, he heard Lin Jiaojiao say.
"Go down."
"Yes."
Lin Jiaojiao personally picked up the teapot and filled it for the person opposite her. "It's just some coarse tea, please don't mind, Master Yu."
Yu Muqing took the teacup and put it to his lips to taste it, then smiled and said, "The Maojian tea from Xiping is all coarse tea, so there are very few good teas in the world."
Lin Jiaojiao showed an admiring look. It was really amazing that one could tell the type of tea by tasting it.
The two of them chatted with each other in a very harmonious atmosphere, and Yu Muqing spoke when he saw that the time was right.
"Mr. Lin, I heard that your farm grows a lot of exotic crops. I want to buy a batch of potato seeds in the name of Jiyun."
Lin Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment and then asked in confusion: "Since Lord Yu knows about the potato seeds, he should know that I provided a batch of seeds."
"Yes, but Chaoqi is so large that the amount of seeds distributed to the people of Jiyun is obviously very small."
Uh, she was in trouble.
She only planted 30 acres of potatoes, and provided 5 acres of potatoes to the country. She also kept some potatoes for herself to plant in the fall.
Moreover, she used potato tubers for asexual reproduction, and the germination rate and yield of real potato seeds are very low.
"I know that Lord Yu is thinking about the common people, but I didn't plant many potatoes this season, and I need to save some for the second half of the year. How about this? I will give Lord Yu a batch of potato seeds for free."
Seeing that the person opposite her was very excited, she hurriedly continued, "But the yield of this fruit seed germination is very low. If you want to plant a large number of potatoes next year, you will need a lot of good land to plant them in the second half of this year. Maybe one acre of land can produce 1,000 kilograms, which is considered a high yield."
Yu Muqing was still very excited after hearing this. This was better than nothing.
"I am really grateful to Mr. Lin. I will definitely give you the money."
"Really, there's no need. I didn't plan to keep the seeds of the fruit, after all, they are poisonous, but my farm employees couldn't bear to throw them away, so they kept them. So when you plant them, Lord Yu, you must publicize that the stems, leaves, and fruits of potatoes are not edible, and they can't be eaten raw. Even the green and sprouting parts of the potatoes can be inedible."
Yu Muqing didn't expect that the potato was poisonous all over. She didn't know whether she should plant it or not.
Lin Jiaojiao also noticed her hesitation and was not in a hurry to reply. After all, in ancient times, information was blocked, and if publicity was not adequate, she was really afraid that countless people would be poisoned by eating potatoes.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken the Queen a month to decide on promoting potatoes. Thinking that her stepmother would arrive tomorrow with the Queen's reward, she couldn't help but feel happy and hoped that she would be given more silver.
She is really short of money!
Yu Muqing thought for a while, and made up his mind and said: "Okay, I will promote it vigorously. Mr. Lin, can you lend me some writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone? I will write down these precautions.
Lin Jiaojiao took a sip of tea to moisten her throat. "No need. We should give you a potato planting manual by then. It will record in detail how to plant and harvest, as well as various precautions and self-help methods for poisoning."
After the job was done, Yu Muqing changed back to his normal identity and chatted with Lin Jiaojiao.
"I heard that the Lin family built a school in the village. It has all the facilities for music, chess, calligraphy and painting, which is really admirable. It's a pity that it's a bit far away, otherwise I would like to send my daughter to school."
"Hahaha, Lord Yu, you're joking. We set up this school just to make it more convenient for children in the village and surrounding areas to go to school. The facilities and teaching materials here are definitely not comparable to those in the city."
In fact, it is much better than some schools in the city, but she dare not say so.
"No need to be modest. Mr. Lin is a man of integrity and generosity. We are..."
Until the two walked out of the lounge, they were still praising each other commercially.
Lin Jiaojiao really didn't expect Yu Muqing to be so good at praising people. Looking at her appearance before, she thought she would be a serious person who is difficult to get along with.
Now people were coming into the store one after another. She sent Yu Muqing to the door of the private room and was about to leave, but was stopped by Yu Wanru.
"Don't leave, big sister! I want you to be my master!"
