Chapter 412: The Village’s Wheat Field
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Binglan remembered where the rapeseeds were, so she entered the mountain and headed in that direction. She smiled when she saw the vast rapeseed field and began to pick them.
She mainly put the rapeseed in her pocket because the basket she brought was insufficient. Moreover, the rapeseed would improve and overgrow when she put them in her pocket dimension, and their oil yield would be much higher.
While she busied herself at the back of the mountain, her first granduncle gathered the villagers. The village quickly gathered since Chief Su had told them to. After all, he had a lot of prestige in the village.
Everyone wondered if he had something important to say. Otherwise, he would not have told them to gather so suddenly.
A small square in the village was the village’s wheat field. The villagers typically sundried their wheat, piled their wheat straws and split their rice in the village’s wheat field.
Even now, many haystacks piled up in the wheat field, and each house’s haystacks were apparent. The village would sometimes go to the field to get hay whenever they needed something to burn for a fire.
The children would also go to the field to play on regular days. They would sometimes play hide-and-seek, and some would hide in the haystacks.
The villagers gathered on the wheat field at that moment. Every household arranged for one person to listen to Chief Su’s announcement.
However, Chief Su also sent someone to inform those who could not make it. He ensured everyone in the village would hear what he said.
Everyone naturally chatted with each other as they ran over. “Why did Chief Su want us to gather?”
“It must be something important. We’ll know once Chief Su announces it.”
“I hope it’s something good. After all, Chief Su has helped everyone a lot as the village Chief. He always considers everyone whenever he has good news to share.”
“You’re right. Let’s go and take a look.”
When everyone gathered, Chief Su stood before them and said, “I have something to tell you all. Look at these rapeseeds.”
Everyone was invigorated when they heard that. It meant that Chief Su had announced something good.
“I heard about rapeseed this morning when a few people from neighboring villages visited ours. I think they bought the rapeseeds from Miss Su. The visitors looked ecstatic,” said Wang Yao.
“Yeah, I know about those, too, and even went to look for Miss Su. She said she told Chief Su to notify us about rapeseed. They can sell us the rapeseed if we need them.”
“Since it’s something Miss Su discovered, it must be good.”
“Is it a dish we can eat?”
Some discussed in hushed tones before continuing to listen to Chief Su. He explained, “You can plant 500 grams of rapeseed in one acre of land. One acre can produce a lot of rapeseed, which you can use to extract oil.”
The villagers were in an uproar when he said that.
“What? Can we produce more oil if we harvest so much rapeseed with just one acre of land?”
“That’s a higher yield than peanut oil.”
“I never knew such a thing existed.”
“If it’s that good, we won’t run out of oil in the future.”
“Yeah, but we don’t have rapeseeds. Should we buy them?”
“Can it truly produce that much oil?”
“Everyone knows Chief Su well enough that he wouldn’t lie to us.”
The villagers chattered back and forth, causing the atmosphere to become lively. Chief Su knew everyone’s doubts and waved before saying, “Don’t worry, everyone. Listen to what I have to say first.
“You can also plant rapeseeds during winter and harvest them in spring, which you can then use as a vegetable for cooking. Furthermore, you can use the rest for oil extraction.
He relayed what Su Binglan had told him to everyone in detail. The villagers were ecstatic when they heard Chief Su’s explanation.
“Five coins per 500 grams is very affordable.”
“That’s right. Plus, we can plant rapeseed during winter, which won’t occupy our land when we need to plant crops.”
“I’m free anyway since the autumn harvest ended a while ago. I can sell the oil I get for money if I plant rapeseed.”
“Chief Su and his grandniece are such kind people. They always consider everyone’s situation. We can borrow and return the rapeseeds after harvesting them when spring comes.”
Everyone excitedly discussed these things and wanted to buy rapeseed. Chief Su chuckled when he saw everyone’s expression. He knew the villagers would buy rapeseeds since it was a good thing.
He jotted down how much each family wanted and told everyone to return home to await the good news. After all, Su Binglan would only return in the evening.
When she returned, she hurriedly put the rapeseeds from her pocket dimension into the family’s warehouse.
Su Wenxiu heard the commotion and rushed over. “When did you get back, Little Sister?”
Su Binglan turned around when she heard her second brother’s voice and saw three people behind him. They were around the age of ten. The trio respectfully greeted her, “Hello, Miss Su.”
Su Binglan looked at the trio and nodded smilingly. Then she asked Su Wenxiu, “Are these the apprentices you accepted, Second Brother?”
“That’s right,” Su Wenxiu answered, “That’s Lin Shu, this is Su Shi, and that one over there is Wang Dashan. Anyway, I saw you here and heard about what happened this afternoon.
“First Granduncle Su gathered the villagers and asked them how many rapeseeds they needed. Then he came over after jotting down their orders, but you weren’t home, so he gave me the paper for the statistics. Take a look, Little
Sister.”
“Oh, do you need my help sorting these rapeseeds?” Su Wenxiu had brought his three apprentices to help his sister.
Su Binglan nodded. “I’ll need your help later.”
She looked at the paper as she spoke and noticed that almost every family wanted two to three pounds of rapeseeds. Fortunately, she had gathered enough from the back of the mountain.
“Pack these up first, and I’ll let Granduncle Su distribute them to the villagers tomorrow,” Su Binglan said.
Su Wenxiu nodded and started to help alongside his three apprentices.
Su Binglan looked at one of the apprentices and thought he was familiar. She asked, “Which family is Lin Shu from, Second Brother?”
Su Wenxiu replied, “Oh, he’s Lin Chai’s eldest son.”
Su Binglan finally realized why Lin Shu looked so familiar as he was Lin Chai and Miss He’s eldest son.
“Miss Su, my parents say that you’re our family’s benefactor,” Lin Shu said shyly, “I want to learn medical skills from my master and help people.” When Lin Shu was a child, he knew his mother was weak, and his father stuttered. He wanted his mother to be in better health and his father to stop stuttering, but he never had the means or ability to help them.
He had always wanted to study medicine, but his family never had the means to allow it. He did not expect to be able to study medicine finally and was ecstatic. His parents were thrilled, too..
