Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1601

Chapter 1601: Chapter 2: The Grand Finale (Part 2)

"In the past, after harvesting the wheat fields, most people would burn the stalks as firewood. Though straw is flammable, it doesn’t burn as well as firewood. People believe that applying organic fertilizer enriches the soil, but... Shanru thinks that instead of doing so, fermenting straw with organic fertilizer to use as manure is the real way to enrich the land."

Bai Qingyan nodded: "Good... if this time you increase the harvest of the rice paddies and also the wheat fields, then you will have done a great service for the people."

If Zeng Shanru truly succeeds, such a contribution... would deserve a title of nobility.

In this way, Nanny Tong would also see the fruits of her labor.

Zeng Shanru hurriedly responded: "Shanru is simply doing what is my duty; I dare not take credit for it!"

"By the way, Shanru also met Mr. Qin, who once recovered from his injuries at our Bai Mansion. Mr. Qin, upon hearing that the eldest daughter had reclaimed the Yan Kingdom, seemed to have anticipated this outcome. However, Mr. Qin is busy overseeing the canal construction and cannot spare the time to congratulate the eldest daughter personally, so Shanru was asked to convey his message... saying that the eldest daughter is destined to be a wise ruler ushering in a golden age, and he holds deep admiration and respect."

Bai Qingyan nodded, only regretting that... a great talent like Qin Shangzhi was only willing to build canals for Zhou, and not to be used by her.

Loyal ministers do not serve two masters, this too was Qin Shangzhi’s choice, and she was helpless.

Seeing the eldest daughter’s expression of regret, Zeng Shanru quickly pushed out the redwood box by his side, smiling: "I didn’t have the chance to return to Dadu City in time to celebrate the birthdays of the two young masters. Now, busy with the wheat field matters and unable to leave, I boldly ask the eldest daughter to bring the birthday gifts I prepared for the two young masters back!"

The gifts Zeng Shanru brought were not anything expensive, but rather a pair of high-quality colorful hibiscus, with a silky luster and purity. He considered carving a pair of seals for the two young masters someday.

Little did he know, during the two young masters’ birthdays in March, he couldn’t make it back in time. Now, unable to return to Dadu City with the eldest daughter, he could only ask Bai Qingyan to take the gifts back. At least it was his intention.

"A Yan and I also missed the two children’s birthday." Bai Qingyan couldn’t help but feel regretful. Her mother’s letter mentioned that during the grabbing ceremony... Kangle grabbed a pen in one hand and a small bow in the other, while Xile initially grabbed a golden abacus, but upon seeing Bai Qingyun, she dropped the abacus to grab Bai Qingyun’s hand.
