 Chapter 411: Opinions from Each Family

Chu Xueqin thought about Chu Xing's admiration for Chu Heng and it was indeed possible. He responded, "Alright, I'll buy some for Third Brother later."


Just as the three of them were talking, Qian came over with a money pouch.


She handed the money pouch to Chu Xueqin, saying, "There's one tael of broken silver and one hundred copper coins inside. If it's not enough, come back and I'll add more. Hurry up."


"Okay." Chu Xueqin didn't waste any time. He also grabbed some silver from his room and then headed out.


Wearing a straw hat, he walked straight towards Chai Mountain.


In front of Chai Mountain, there was a small river. Since it was summer, the water wasn't deep. He didn't follow the example of the young men who took off their shoes and waded across the river. Instead, he walked around the side of Chai Mountain.


From a distance, he could see that many men were dividing tasks and working at Chai Mountain.


All the saplings had been taken off the mule cart and placed at the foot of Chai Mountain.


Watching the men helping to dig and plant the trees, Chu Xueqin was amazed.


He originally thought that these people had been invited by Chu Heng to deliver the saplings but unexpectedly they were helping to dig the ground. Could it be that the laborers working in the town were all this diligent?


As Chu Xueqin approached, Luchuan had just finished instructing everyone on their tasks.


Seeing Chu Xueqin coming over, he greeted, "Master Xueqin, are you here to buy mountain pepper tree saplings?"


Being from the same fifth family and having a good relationship with the master and lady, Luchuan was happy to give face. He spoke politely making Wu San couldn't help but look at Chu Xueqin a few more times.


Chu Xueqin, who was only twenty-five years old and had never been addressed as 'Master,' felt a bit uncomfortable.


"You can just call me Brother Xueqin. Yes, I came to buy mountain pepper tree saplings." Chu Xueqin glanced at the mountain pepper tree saplings nearby and the people quickly working on digging and planting. He hesitated for a moment but didn't ask for specific details.


Instead, he asked, "How many mountain pepper tree saplings are left?"


Before Luchuan could answer, more people approached.


"Xueqin, you came so quickly." The speaker was Kong Shi from the fourth family.


Chu Xueqin turned around and greeted, "Fourth Aunt."


Kong Shi wasn't alone; there was also Wang, Chunsheng's wife from the second family.


Following closely were Chu An from the big family and Chu Lin from the third family.


Each family had sent one person, which was better than Chu Xueqin had imagined. He greeted each of them in turn.


Kong Shi directly asked Luchuan, "How do you plant these mountain pepper trees? Can they bear fruit this year?"


Luchuan patiently replied, "These mountain pepper saplings have been growing for two or three years. They should bear fruit by this time next year but not this year."


He was very clear in his explanation and Sun Shi's brow furrowed slightly.


Chu Xueqin took over and said, "Speaking of which, my family has also planted some. They were planted by Ah Xing when he was a child and insisted on planting them. Every summer, we can sell them to the county drugstore at a good price. Sister Muyu has considered it thoroughly. These mountain pepper saplings aren't just newborn seedlings, otherwise, it might take three or four years for them to bear fruit."


He was also reminding Sun Shi that finding saplings that could bear fruit next year was quite precious and not something you could easily buy.


Sun Shi understood.
