Chapter 941: It's been half a year since I came out

In fact, Baoyue Tower didn't have this thing, but Manager Yang was worthy of being the manager of the largest restaurant in Yunzhou. No one knew where he found it, but he managed to get her a leg a few days later.

Of course, Zhou Guo did not make the trip in vain, and gave Manager Yang two jars of the best Bamboo Leaf Green, which was not available in Baoyue Tower.

Shopkeeper Yang was so happy that he had originally decided not to accept the offer. But now being able to help Zhou Guo was actually a good thing for him no matter how he looked at it. Many people wanted to help her but couldn't.

But these jars of wine are so tempting, Bamboo Leaf Green, which is no worse than Pear Blossom White. These jars are even older and taste mellower.

Zhou Guo smiled and said, "Boss, please accept these two jars of wine. This is a gift for you. You have helped me so much over the years, and I remember it in my heart. How can these two jars of wine offset it?"

Shopkeeper Yang was a little embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed. "I know that Mr. Zhou has always been a man of loyalty and righteousness, otherwise he would not have dealt with people like us. Then I will accept these two jars of wine."

I couldn't help but smell it again and again when I held it in my arms. It smelled so good!

Zhou Guo couldn't help laughing when he thought of Shopkeeper Yang's expression. She was obviously very happy, but wanted to accept it but hesitated. He looked at her unconsciously several times.

In fact, the shopkeepers were all very nice. She had received a lot of care from them when she was penniless. Although profits accounted for a large part of the care, she would have sold the mushrooms to them even if they had not taken any care of her.

After all, no one has the obligation to take care of her like this.

When passing by the outskirts of the city, she also went to see the ground berry field. The ground berries were gone and the grass leaves were withered and yellow. Several ground berry growers were very happy to see Zhou Guo coming. After the ground berries were out of season, they had not received any further instructions and didn't know what to do.

Zhou Guo said, "Before winter, move these ground berries into pots and move them into the house. I'll have someone buy all of this land and reclaim it next year. When the land is expanded, I'll transfer a few more people over. By then, the farm will be bigger, and you won't have to be afraid if there are more people."

This side is still too desolate. The nearest houses can only be seen after crossing two valleys.

One person said, "Master, don't worry. We are fine here. Both families have company. It's just that the land is small. A dozen acres is actually enough for one family."

"There is no wasteland nearby. From here, it is not deep and there are rocks underneath. It is not very big, so it is not very useful for land reclamation. In the past, it was just a hill and there is no land."

Can raspberries still be grown on the mountains?

Zhou Guo looked around and since there was not much point in reclaiming the land here, she sold it as soon as she hired someone. It was only a dozen acres and it was far away, and it would take several people to manage it, so it would be better to sell it.

But when she looked at these mountains, it was as if she had seen a treasure.

In recent years, the family has a lot of land and mountains.

These mountains can not only be used to grow mushrooms, but also fruit trees and even berries.

It may not be an easy task to open it.

But the land in Song County might not be suitable for growing ground berries in a short period of time. It would take at least three to five years. Ground berries are so expensive per pound, so she had to find a way.

This place is not far from the city and is the best base. We can only start from the surrounding mountains. This is also a last resort.

This matter was very easy, she didn't even need to show up in person, she could just leave it to Hu Zi.

Come to think of it, she hasn't been home for a long, long time. She hasn't been back since she last went to Nanhe. It's time for her to go back.

I stayed on several nearby hills for two hours and inspected the surrounding land and the soil on the hills. Although it was not very fertile, it should still be possible to grow ground berries.

The key is that she has plenty of fertilizer in her hands, so there is no need to worry about that. As long as there are no rocks underneath, ground berries can be grown.

There are mountains here, but there are only three small hills. The rest are connected together. She definitely can't afford them, and the government won't sell them.

These hills are not big. The sum of their numbers is not as big as the one in the village, but they are big enough for growing raspberries.

If there are too many, even the Yunzhou city alone cannot handle them all.

After explaining some things, she left and wrote a letter to Hu Zi in the carriage.

Come to think of it, things in Huaiyang are almost done, and it will probably take five or six days for this letter to reach him.

When the carriage entered the village, the villagers saw Dashu and Xiaoshu driving the carriage and asked in surprise, "You two brothers are back, and Zhou Guo in the carriage is back too?"

The main reason is that Zhou Guo hasn't been home for almost half a year. She is actually busier than her brothers. Just like her uncle, she is rarely seen.

Zhou Guo lifted the curtain, stuck his head out, and greeted everyone with a smile.

"Hello, Auntie. The harvest is good this year, right? Why didn't you go up the mountain to pick mushrooms?"

"Hey, I'm going, it's almost dark now. I just came back not long ago. Life is better now. We don't have to work day and night like this. We've made more money, and it's time for us to enjoy our life!"

"You haven't been home for several months, right? I think you look better now. What are you doing out there? Why don't you come home?"

"Your mother keeps talking to us every day. She was still talking this morning. Doesn't she know that you will be back today?"

Zhou Guo answered them one by one with a smile.

Finally, he said, "I will go back first. Aunts, you guys are busy. Come to our house some other day."

A group of people said yes and sent her away.

"I don't know what good fortune the Zhou family had in their previous life to have such a person in their family?"

"Alas, it's a pity that she's just a girl. She's grown up in the past two years and will have to get married in a few years. Once she gets married, the money she earns will belong to her husband's family and she won't be able to give a penny to her parents' family. You can imagine how much loss the Zhou family will suffer!"

No one spoke, and everyone felt sorry for the Zhou family. They finally had a child who could make a lot of money, but the child was destined to be someone else's. No one knew who would benefit from it in the future.

It was already evening at this time, and everyone who should have returned had returned.

When Zhou Guo got off the carriage, the doorman leaned out and said in surprise, "The master is back!!"

This shout called out everyone in the house, and they all rushed out in a hurry.

Li was even holding a shoe in her hand, and the old man was holding a raw fish, which seemed to be grilled.

Zhou Mai and others were holding pens, paper and ink in their hands.

Zhou Guo looked at them and said with a smile, "You look so excited. It's been a while since we last met. Didn't we just harvest the autumn harvest together last time?"

Li said happily, "How can it be the same? You are going home, what are you standing there for? Come in."

Zhou Guo said: "I brought back a lot of things, please move them in."

Zhou Gu waved his hand and called his brothers, "Let's go and move the things."

One after another, gorgeous and beautiful cloth was unloaded from the car. Although they were wrapped in cloth, Li could still see the exposed parts, which were definitely not cheap.
