Chapter 1215: scouts

  Chapter 1215 Scouting Team

   "How much does one mu produce?" Tang Dongfeng became interested.

   "Eighteen hundred catties." Ye Muyu was still settling accounts, and replied without raising her head.

   Tang Dongfeng coughed fiercely, his eyes full of shock. Fortunately, he didn't drink water, otherwise he might be rude.

  He looked at her in disbelief: "The yield per mu is 1,800 catties, so much, aren't you satisfied?"

  Ye Muyu could tell from his expression that he was shocked, and swallowed back the words of dissatisfaction, "It looks like a lot, but it's still not enough for a war."

   "Did you know that in Dachu, the output of sweet potatoes is the highest, and only Mu Can has 1,500 catties."

  Ye Muyu shook his head: "The yield of sweet potatoes can be higher."

  If artificial fertilizers are used alone, the output cannot keep up, and some weather effects are also involved.

   "How do you plan to sell such sweet potatoes?" Tang Dongfeng asked.

   "Send them all to the Northland military camp." Ye Muyu didn't hesitate much, and took out the answer she had prepared a long time ago.

  Tang Dongfeng was not surprised, he just frowned, and persuaded: "Now there should not be many sweet potatoes in the whole court. Even if they are planted at Luoping Pass, it is still not enough for the people of the whole world to share."

   "The capital is the first one. You can sell the sweet potatoes at a high price, earn back the money and then exchange it for food and send it to the military camp. In this way, although the process is a bit more complicated, you can have more food."

   "Not only are sweet potatoes grown in Luopingguan, but also in Nanchang County."

   "Actually, I also thought about what you said, but..." Ye Muyu had a sad face, and she cared more about Chu Heng's safety than Yinzi.

  Tang Dongfeng closed his fan, saw what she was thinking, and said, "Ma'am, let me take the young master of the Du family to open up business. We have achieved good results, and we can use this to transport grain to the North."

   "Madam can wait for the master's news to come back before making a decision."

  He felt that with Chu Heng's ability, there should be no problem in keeping his life alive.

   The difficulty lies in the fact that food must be kept together.

  Ye Muyu agreed, and she kept in touch with Du Heng and Tang Dongfeng all the time.

  Go out every day to inquire about the news of the war in the Northland.

  Finally, in the early morning of April, Ye Muyu was practicing martial arts with the children in the yard. Sumei hurried in and handed her a letter.

  She took the letter tremblingly. The letter paper was made of ordinary paper, and the ink on it was still smeared. There was not much content inside. Seeing that everything was going well, don’t read it.

  Looking at the date, it was written by Chu Henggang ten days after his departure. I don't know if he has received the letter she sent a few days ago.

   Realized that he could not get news of the war from Chu Heng.

  Ye Muyu had no choice but to ask Du Heng and Tang Dongfeng to pay more attention.

   "Ma'am, what are your orders?" Housekeeper Luo was called in and bowed to her first.

  Ye Muyu asked: "Steward Luo, is there anyone in the house who is suitable to be a scout?"

  After much deliberation, she felt that it was unreliable to rely on others to spread the news, and the news was not timely. The main task of Du Heng and Tang Dongfeng was to open up business channels.

   There must be a delay of at least half a month for the North Korea to receive news of the war in the North.

  So, if she wanted to know the news about Chu Heng accurately, she had to set up a scout team in private.

  Luo understood when she asked.

   "Madam, all the people in the house are left by the master to protect Madam and other relatives."

   "The only one who would inquire about the news was left behind, and the others were taken away by the master."
