“I admire those who can serve the country and the people. I’ve always aspired to be those heroes who can fight on the battlefield! When I was little, my grandfather used to tell me those heroic stories, and at that time, I decided I want to go to the battlefield in the future!”

Xie Ying began to share her ideals with Wei Ruo.

Xie Ying then flattened her mouth, full of regret and helplessness saying: “Too bad, I’m a girl. I realized when I grew up that there are a lot of things that girls are not allowed to do. How can I go to the battlefield, when I can barely leave the house?”

Wei Ruo burst out laughing. This eldest lady of the Xie family was really interesting. She was indeed different from other wealthy families’ ladies!

“What are you laughing at?” Xie Ying asked.

“I’m not mocking you, I’m just surprised! I agree with your point of view. If I want to cultivate the wasteland at the south of the city, I have to get my parents’ permission, otherwise I can’t leave the house.

Even if my parents gave permission, I still have to bring a Mo mo with me every time I go out.”

“But you did it well. My mother said that after you succeed, you can help the people in the city and provide food. Your credit is the same as the soldiers who guard the border and defend the country!”

Xie Ying admired such people the most!

“If you like, you can participate.” Wei Ruo suggested.

“Can I?” Xie Ying said doubtfully.

“Of course, there is plenty of empty land at the south of the city.”

“But isn’t that wasteland mainly cultivated for farmers without land?” Xie Ying asked.

“Most of the wasteland in the south of the city has been distributed to landless farmers and unemployed fishermen. But because of limited farming costs, they are given areas with good terrain, close to official roads, water sources, or relatively flat terrain. Areas with more complexity have not been allocated to anyone.”

“Can crops be grown in places with complex terrain?” Xie Ying asked.

“Yes, but it’s not very suitable for growing crops like rice, as the labor and maintenance costs are too high. Instead, we can grow bamboo, mushrooms, various fruits, vegetables, and even medicinal herbs.”

Wei Ruo looked at Xie Ying who was listening attentively in front of her, and an idea came to her mind.

Wei Ruo continued to say to Xie Ying: “If you are really interested, we can form a partnership.”

“Partnership?” Xie Ying looked at Wei Ruo curiously.

“You’re not good at farming. Although I’m good at this, I have limited freedom and time in the Wei family. Moreover, I can only manage several people at once. 

So, if we work together, we can learn from each other’s strengths and make up for our weaknesses. The silver we earn will be divided according to the proportion of our efforts, what do you think?”

“Although I don’t like growing plants, I think this is quite interesting!” Xie Ying was very excited.

Xie Ying grew up being pampered by her grandparents and parents from a young age, and she was not short on money. However, she was curious to see If she could earn it through her effort.

Especially now that she had a different perspective on this.

“So what do you think we should plant?” Xie Ying asked.

“We can plant some medicinal herbs. Because during the war, the consumption and the prices of medicinal herbs was consistently high. So, we can plant and sell medicinal herbs to earn money.

Moreover, we can also provide it to the military to ensure that they do not lack medicine.” Wei Ruo suggested.

“That’s good! You can make money and help the soldiers at the same time!” Xie Ying became even more interested and very eager to try.
