After hearing this, Mrs. Wu was very happy. She had always liked Xiao Mianmian, but she was afraid that her son was not worthy of her, so she had not responded positively. Du Wanchun just smiled and felt that the child was too young and that marriage was a big deal for them. Mrs. Zhou also thought it was right, so she never mentioned it again. During the autumn harvest, the Third Prince and Wei Xun invited many villagers to harvest rice. In the past year, with the help of the Zhou family, many villagers in Changliu Village made money and used the money to build new houses at home. Only the Chen family and the Meng family. Because they had a grudge with the Zhou family before, they no longer had any contact and planted their own land every day. In the past, only their two families were the richest, but now they are the poorest.

However, they could not help being poor, and they could not bring themselves to look for the Zhou family.

At the same time, Du Wanchun would not be willing to make friends with them.

After the rice was harvested, Du Wanchun not only gave them silver, but also gave each person and each household a bag of rice.

The villagers were very happy.

They also planted their own fields with Du Wanchun's rice seeds, and after the Zhou family harvested, they would harvest their own fields.

A month later, the rice in every household was dried.

Because the output was dozens of times higher than before, many families had full granaries.

There was not enough room for so much rice at home, so they just listened to Du Wanchun's request to sell some to her.

So within three days, the door of the Zhou family was surrounded by people selling rice.

Du Wanchun bought all of it at a price lower than the market price,

After buying the rice, he sent people to beat it into rice and then sent it to various rice shops.

In this way, not only will the rice shop have enough rice to sell, but there will also be a granary to store it.

The Zhou family doubled the size of the rice warehouse, which was just right.

Because the villagers in this village and the neighboring villages were close to each other, they all came to deliver rice themselves. For those who were far away, Du Wanchun sent people to collect it in person.

It took three days to harvest rice in a village, and half a month to collect it.

After the rice was harvested, Du Wanchun found that she had harvested more than she had imagined. The granary at home was already full. If there were more, there would probably be no place to store it.

After thinking about it, she decided to build another rice warehouse.

The third prince agreed very much and followed Wei Xun to do it in person.

Originally, everyone thought it was a small business, but it was Du Wanchun's small act of collecting rice that made the Zhou family the largest rice merchant in their Xuanyue country, rich enough to rival a country.

That night, Du Wanchun took out the account book and looked at the rice delivered by each household.

Among them, the amount delivered by several households had long exceeded the amount she stipulated.

One of the families was Miao.

Du Wanchun smiled, her lips slightly raised.

It seemed that she was really a person who knew how to repay kindness.

Miao lived in the farm these days, but she would go to the fields to farm every day.

When Doctor Xu was free, he would go to the fields to help her.

The two of them worked quickly, and when it was time to harvest the rice, the villagers helped together, so it was not particularly tiring.

Because Miao was diligent, the rice she planted was better than that of ordinary people, and the yield was also high.

She bought some for Du Wanchun, and there were more than 30 bags of rice left at home.

This rice was enough for her and her children to eat for a long time.

Miao didn't want to bother Du Wanchun in the farm all the time, so she later used the money to buy rice to build a small house near her own field.

The mother and son also had a place to stay.

Other people in the village took the silver and bought chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle and sheep, and they all lived a prosperous life.

There are also many skilled people who use the money to set up stalls in Cheng'an County to sell candied haws and small candied figurines, and some sell insoles, and they earn a lot of money every day.

Whenever they get together, they will praise Du Wanchun and Zhou Ruiyuan, saying that one of them is the God of Wealth and the other is the Star of Literature.

So, their lives are getting better and better.

This was heard by Mrs. Gao and Mr. Gao who were begging on the road, and they regretted it.

Especially the eldest brother Gao, he complained to his mother: "Mom, it's all your fault. If you hadn't asked Miao Yuemei to collect rice seeds from that woman, we would be like them now, eating delicious food and buying a carriage."

"Look at what kind of life we ​​are living now, we can only beg for food."

Old lady Gao felt very regretful after hearing this, but she quickly raised her hand and slapped her son, "You little beast, you dare to blame me, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself, you don't want a good wife, but insist on marrying the concubine of that rich family, if it weren't for that woman, how could we

If you hadn't been drinking all day, we wouldn't have sold the house and ended up living on the streets!"
