Chapter 230 People die for wealth and birds die for food
While strolling outside, Sumu discovered that some people's fields were still empty.
"Why are there no plants planted on these lands?" asked the emperor.
"The weather has been hot recently, and we were afraid that the seeds would not germinate, so we didn't plant them." Su Dingguo knew all these things. He often chatted with the villagers, so he knew all these things clearly.
The early seeds have already sprouted, and as the weather is getting hotter, the fields want to wait for rain or to plant after a few days to be on the safe side, but there has been no rain.
The farming season is almost over, and after the farming season, the growth and yield of crops will decrease.
"These fields should be planted with crops in the next few days." There is also water flow to facilitate irrigation.
Su Mu looked at the fields without crops and fell into deep thought.
After returning home, Su Mu told her family about her idea of opening a store, and her family members were very supportive of her.
This is the seed shop she has always wanted to open. Her dream is to make the seed shop bigger and stronger, and even open a seed museum. She hopes to collect seeds of all kinds.
After several months in the space, the number of various seeds stored is unknown. It is time to sprinkle some water for opening a store~
I plan to talk to Ji Shiyan about Sumu opening a seed shop. After all, selling seeds is something that is closely related to people's livelihood.
Su Mu did what he said, and said, "Grandpa Ji! Here I come to the Ji Shiyan!"
After walking a few steps, they arrived at the small villa of the retired emperor.
"Su girl is here?" The emperor held the kettle in his hand.
Su Mu looked at the waterlogged fruit tree in the emperor's yard and his eyes twitched. The emperor still liked watering the tree as always. This fruit tree was sent by Su Mu for transplanting. It was quite impressive that it could grow so big.
"Come, girl Su, come in quickly." The emperor happily brought Su Mu into the house.
Ji Shiyan also walked out of the study.
"Mumu."
"Ji Shiyan." Su Mu smiled brightly at Ji Shiyan.
"Don't stand at the door, come in and sit down." What's the point of standing at the door? It's so hot. If he hadn't wanted to water the fruit trees, he wouldn't have gone out. He is really too hardworking. He didn't forget to water the fruit trees even in such hot weather.
"Defu, bring some delicious food over here."
A few people sat down, ate snacks, drank cold drinks, and the heat gradually dissipated.
"Grandpa Emperor, Ji Shiyan came here this time to ask, I want to open a seed shop."
"Seed shop!" The emperor was shocked. "Are you serious?"
"Really?" Su Mu was shocked by the attitude of the emperor. Didn't she just open a seed shop? She didn't know the ins and outs of it, whether there were any procedures required to open this shop, and whether her seeds could be sold.
"What kind of seeds is Mumu planning to sell?" Ji Shiyan began to think about whether there was a suitable place for Mumu to open a shop.
"Can I sell some corn seeds in the near future?" Su Mu asked tentatively. Her seeds were very useful in this era, and she didn't know if selling them in large quantities would cause social unrest.
"Yes! Absolutely!" the emperor agreed immediately.
There are definitely more advantages than disadvantages for Su Yatou to open this shop. As for those who covet Su Yatou's shop, the emperor's eyes are sharp, but he is still strong.
"Mumu, just open it." At this moment, Ji Shiyan and the emperor had the same expression, their eyes firm and sharp.
Once this seed starts to be sold, some nobles will definitely be eager to use those cheap and bad old methods to try to take it for themselves, but they will not let these people get their wish.
"Okay!" With the affirmation of these two people, she can do it with confidence. These two people represent the royal family.
"Actually, I have one more thing."
"Mumu, you say." The emperor and Ji Shiyan looked at her, as if in the next second if Mumu said she wanted the stars in the sky, both of them would find a way to pick them for her.
"It's like this, a seed shop needs shop assistants, and ordinary people definitely can't do it." Ordinary people will inevitably be threatened by some petty thieves.
She is not some naive and innocent girl. Money can move people's hearts. In this era, food is the foundation of the people. Those who possess these excellent seeds will see their status soar.
People die for money and birds die for food. Under the temptation of huge profits, many people will even take desperate measures and would rather die than give up their lives.
She knew some of the problems of this era, and the gap in status and class was very important in the eyes of those nobles. Although she was a local lady with high popularity among the people, some people really wanted to do something, and although they were not afraid of trouble, it was still troublesome.
But with the protection of the royal family, everything is different.
Moreover, everyone in the store, including the shop assistants and managers, must have strong self-protection capabilities and be able to protect the shop.
"I want to recruit some retired people to work in the shop."
Taking various considerations into consideration, it is best to recruit these retired people. Those who retired due to injuries or other reasons must be strong in martial arts and have fought on the battlefield. They are not afraid of anything, and the murderous aura they exude can scare off those petty thieves.
And the most important point is that he has excellent character, is upright and has excellent ideas.
"Su girl, thank you so much. I will definitely find someone with good skills for you!"
The retired emperor was very grateful, he had also been on the battlefield and knew how difficult it was for those people.
Many people cannot help but find it difficult to adapt to their current life after retiring from the battlefield. Even if they have made great achievements in battle and have received various honors and rewards, it is still difficult to support a family after retiring.
If they had this opportunity, I'm sure those people would be very happy.
The retired emperor thought about his comrades-in-arms and their retired descendants. Each of them was a good man. Even after retirement, their faith in their hearts remained unchanged, and they still thought that one day they would be able to serve the country.
"Thank you, Grandpa Emperor!" The person invited by the retired emperor must be very skilled.
"Okay, Grandpa Emperor, I'm leaving first. I'll go to the capital to look for a shop tomorrow morning." After saying that, he stood up and left.
"Mumu."
"what?"
"I'll go with you tomorrow." Ji Shiyan stood up and caught up with Su Mu.
Su Mu thought about it and decided that it would be a good idea for him to go along, "Okay, let's go together."
The shop currently has the assistants, but it is still short of a manager, who is also very important.
Su Mu thought about who should be the manager, and this really reminded her of someone.
That was one of the secret guards.
Su Mu called this man over, asked for his opinion, and then chose him from the secret guards. He was a man named Xiaoman in Xia's team. He was very skilled in martial arts and had fought in the barracks during the mission. What was rare was that he had topics to talk about with those guys and was very smooth in his dealings.
Moreover, the name Xiaoman sounds good and is very suitable for the seed shop. He has a suitable personality and a friendly face. When you see him, you can't help but feel close to him.
