Chapter 341 Practice brings out the truth
The next morning.
Lin Jiaojiao and Jiang's mother came to the farm warehouse at dawn. Jiang's mother looked at the room full of potatoes and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Seeing is believing, the yield is really high.
Lin Dadan directed the employees to pack the potatoes into sacks and carry them out one by one. Each bag weighed about 50 kilograms, and a total of 200 bags were required.
It took more than a dozen employees an hour and a half to load all the potatoes in the warehouse. A total of five tons of potatoes were piled up in bags at the intersection, waiting for County Magistrate Xiao to bring people to transport them away.
Mother Jiang saw that the farm had expanded a lot since the last time she came. The development speed was so fast that she couldn't help but admire Lin Jiaojiao's decisiveness and courage.
I didn't save any of the money I earned. I just spent whatever I earned. I wasn't afraid of failing and losing all my money.
"I heard that you even grow your own mushrooms?"
Lin Jiaojiao was listening to Lin Dadan telling about Qian Huilan's bloody experience yesterday. She really didn't expect that a pregnant man would suddenly appear. She was dumbfounded and felt that something was wrong. How could such a coincidence happen?
She heard Jiang's mother's question and turned her head to look. "Yes, it's in the workshop in front. Do you want to take a look?"
"can I see?"
She walked over and said, "Of course, it's not a secret. It's easy to grow. Just keep the humidity and pay attention to the light and ventilation. You can grow it at home."
Jiang's mother nodded thoughtfully and followed Lin Jiaojiao to the mushroom shop.
There is no one in the market now. People only come at dawn to pick fresh shiitake mushrooms, oyster mushrooms and enoki mushrooms, or at night to water the plants to maintain humidity.
Lin Jiaojiao went to the guard room opposite to get the key to the workshop. Now the keys to the workshop and warehouse are kept here, which is a lot more convenient.
She opened the door to the mushroom shop and said, "Stepmother, please come in."
Jiang's mother walked in first, and saw rows of wooden shelves with wooden boxes and cloth bags on them. Mushrooms could be clearly seen growing on the cloth bags.
She pointed to the buckets placed around the wooden rack and asked, "What is this?"
"The weather is hot, so the bucket is used to maintain humidity in the house. The curtains on both sides of the windows should also be pulled down when the sun is shining later in the day. This way, the temperature in the workshop will not be too high. Mushrooms grow well in a humid environment."
"I see."
Jiang's mother walked to the wooden rack and rubbed the soil in the wooden box with her hand. It was not the usual soil.
"How did you come up with such a wonderful idea?"
In response to Jiang's mother's test, she skillfully brought out the words she had prepared long ago.
"Practice makes perfect. Mushrooms always emerge after rain, usually in spring and autumn. I think they like this temperature and humidity. Plus, I accidentally found powder floating under the mushroom umbrella, so I think it's its seed. After planting it a few times, I succeeded by accident."
Originally she wanted to say it was the spores of mushrooms, but she was afraid that she wouldn't understand, and it was difficult for her to explain, so she simply said it was seeds.
“Practice makes perfect…”
Jiang's mother fell into deep thought about this sentence. She turned to look at the person who said such a philosophical thing, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Lin Jiaojiao had not expected that her casual words could control Jiang's mother for so long. After thinking about it, it was probably because the first sentence was too philosophical.
It's so embarrassing. I memorized this sentence too many times when I was in school.
Fortunately, before Jiang's mother could question him again, an employee came to the rescue.
"Master Jiang, County Magistrate Xiao of the host family has arrived with his men."
"Okay, we'll be right there, stepmother, shall we go?"
Jiang's mother nodded, put her hands behind her back and walked out. Lin Jiaojiao hurriedly followed and locked the door again. She threw the key to the employee and asked him to return it across the street, then quickly walked towards the warehouse.
Lin Dadan was entertaining County Magistrate Xiao and her friends. When he saw Lin Jiaojiao and her friends come back, he quickly gave up his seat and stood behind Lin Jiaojiao.
County Magistrate Xiao had met with Prefect Jiang yesterday. Prefect Jiang first went to the Chongkan Town Yamen to read out the reward, and then came to Linjia Village.
"Your Excellency the Prefect, I have brought the transport team with me."
Jiang's mother nodded and looked at the long line of people parked on the road behind County Magistrate Xiao, expressing her satisfaction with her efficiency.
"Thank you for your hard work, Master Xiao. Have you distributed the planting manuals to them?"
"Yes, I sent it out. Yesterday I had two hundred copies made and distributed them to the captains of the guards on each route according to your request."
"Okay, let's start loading the car."
As County Magistrate Xiao gave the order, bags of potatoes were loaded onto the cart. Prefect Jiang discussed with County Magistrate Xiao, while Instructor Yang came to Lin Jiaojiao to congratulate her.
"Congratulations, Lord Lin, you are now at the same rank as our county magistrate, that's really amazing."
They really couldn't have expected that he would be directly conferred an official title. They thought that he would be conferred the title at least after potatoes were planted and the people's food problem could be truly solved.
I didn't expect that he would be promoted so directly, and he was a seventh-rank official.
Lin Jiaojiao said modestly: "I don't deserve it. I am a seventh-rank agricultural official. How can I compare with the county magistrate? Besides, I don't have to work in the Sino-Agricultural Temple. It's just an empty shell."
Teacher Yang stroked his chin and said, "Yes, just like me. Although I am an eighth-rank official, it is just a sinecure and not worth mentioning."
"This is still different. The school in this town cannot be opened without your approval."
"Ah, what's the use? There are so many schools and few scholars. But now it's different. I think your Lin Family School has great potential. Maybe the top scholar in the future will come from your school."
Lin Jiaojiao was no longer modest about this. "I also think that the children in our school are very hardworking and motivated. Although it is rare to find a top scholar, we can still produce quite a few scholars and juren."
Teacher Yang put his hand on her shoulder and looked at her with admiration.
There are many scholars and juren?
Wow, this is really a bold idea.
"Well, Yang believes it. This time I followed Master Xiao to see how the school is doing now, and to try the two-cent lunch."
Lin Jiaojiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How can I let you go to the cafeteria? Why don't you eat at my house at noon?"
Teacher Yang secretly glanced at the prefect Jiang not far ahead and whispered, "No, no, Master Xiao will be leaving soon. It's not proper for me to sit at the same table with the prefect. I'm really here to taste the food in your school. Your two-cent meal has caused a lot of controversy."
Lin Jiaojiao shrugged indifferently, "Let them say whatever they want. I have a clear conscience. I am not using the school as a business."
"Of course I believe you, but with your new identity, there should be less gossip. There will probably be a lot of students coming next month."
"That's great. More people means more competitiveness. I'll give them a few mock exams, and Tongsheng will pass them easily."
Teacher Yang felt that she was a little too confident and obviously thought that this was unlikely, but he still agreed with her.
"Yang believes that Lord Lin has the ability to do this. From now on, Yang will benefit from Lord Lin's help."
