“However, we will not force this matter. We won’t make you decide right away. Here, take a few bean seeds from me to try out first, then you can make the decision whether to use these seeds or not.”

“That’s how it is, I have explained everything. I won’t keep you from having your lunch in this hot midday sun. If you are willing to try out a few seeds, you can come to me. Let me know so I can keep record.”

“If you wish to ponder a little longer, take a look, let’s call it a day.”

After Zhuang Jingye had finished speaking, he jumped off the bench.

The village folks gathered in groups here and there, discussing how to proceed.

Some went directly to Zhuang Jingye, calculated how many acres of beans they needed to plant, how many seeds they needed, and directly took their share.

“Hey, do you really believe the village chief?” someone stopped the man carrying the beans on his back, whispering: “Although I also think the village chief wouldn’t deceive us, this matter isn’t quite certain. Aren’t you being too rash?”

“Rash? Then keep thinking. I’ll start planting the beans.” The man curled his lips, ignored everyone else, and left with the beans on his back.

“Hey, this person… doesn’t take advice.”

“What do you mean by doesn’t take advice? I feel like you guys who keep pondering here are just wasting time. Didn’t you hear what the village chief just said? The folks in Yonghe’s house are going to plant these beans.”

“If they want to plant them, let them. What’s the big deal?”

“What’s the big deal? Are you blind to how the Yonghe’s family’s life has been getting better and better these past few years? Not only has their life become more comfortable, but now they have connected with Ning. They are making quite an income. From what I see, either Yonghe is lucky, or he has a sharp eye for things. No matter what, following his choice shouldn’t be wrong.”

“You make some sense…”

As a result, a few more people went to get their share of bean seeds directly, allowing Zhuang Jingye to record their names and the weight of the seeds. They then left with seeds on their back.

Some were not very confident, so they only took a few beans from Zhuang Jingye to plant first and see how the sprouts grew.

The remaining were the kind who did not take full, or a few, waiting to see how others fared.

“There are indeed several households,” Zhuang Jingye chuckled softly: “I originally thought everyone would be suspicious and unwilling to use these seeds. It seems I have overthought.”

“Life is ordinary, most people still want to have a go.” Zhuang Qingning’s face was full of smiles.

If you add those who have taken the seeds to test them, and those who will need these seeds in a few days, this task seems to have some hope.

“Yes.” Zhuang Jingye said: “They all still want to make money.”

“Speaking of making money, Ning, I heard that you are preparing to make tofu skin?”

“Yes, tofu skin tastes good, so I thought about making some. This tofu skin is a dry product which is easy to store and transport. If things go well, I plan on making this tofu skin the mainstay.”

“If things go well, I think we will not have enough pots for tofu, and we will have to hire additional people.”

“When we built a new house, we enclosed an area on the side right? I was thinking about converting this place into a dedicated area for making tofu skin.”

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Jingye was very excited.

Making tofu skin, expanding tofu pots, hiring people… these are all benefits to the village.

“Okay, you go ahead and do what you need to do. If you need anything, just let me know.” Zhuang Jingye said: “If you think Dayong is reliable, you can arrange for Dayong to do the work. Leave the matter of finding people and tofu pots to me. Yonghe has always done a good job, let him continue to handle this for you.”

“You employ a lot of people in your tofu factory right now, you pay well, and are generous. I think many people want to work for you, so hiring people is not a problem.”

“Ning, if you can start making tofu skin, you might become the richest person in our village.”
