The Whole Village Thrives After Adopting a Lucky Girl

The children eagerly took them and immediately put them in their mouths.

Within moments, they were screaming with joy, surrounding Yingbao, hoping for more.

Yingbao picked up a twig and began to draw on the ground, her drawings indicated that if they wanted more candy, they would need to trade something from their homes.

Anything would do, even seeds from vegetables.

Most children didn’t understand, but the adult primitives did. They immediately went home to find some seeds to give to the dark-haired witch.

Yingbao inspected each seed. Among them, she found one kind of seed that was similar in size to soybeans and was elongated.

She gestured and asked the locals, “Can these be eaten?”

The Primitive with yellow curled hair nodded in response.

Eventually, Yingbao bartered wheat for many of these beans.

Before leaving, the people asked her again and again whether she would return, as they were obviously reluctant to see her go.

Yingbao thought for a moment and then, with a wave of her hand, she built two neat rows of thatched huts for them.

The primitives with yellow curly hair were astonished and dropped to their knees in thanks.

Yingbao and Wei Zhan left and visited several more places, collecting various types of seeds.

“Who would have thought that under the same sky as ours there are so many different races.” Wei Zhan couldn’t help but exclaim when he saw a group of dark-skinned primitives.

These primitives were genuinely primitive. They only made strange clicking sounds, and regardless of their age or sex, they were totally nude, lived in low shelters built from branches, ate raw flesh, drank fresh blood, were emaciated but surprisingly strong, and threw stones and spears when they saw Wei Zhan and Yingbao. They were even more barbaric than the yellow-haired primitives.

Yingbao noticed that these primitives couldn’t even farm, despite having vast fertile lands; they, akin to monkeys, existed in the forest, hunting or gathering wild fruits when hungry, and laying on the ground motionless when full, or engaging in indiscriminate mating.

Seeing this, Wei Zhan quickly pulled his wife away.

After several twists and turns, they finally found a city.

It was hardly a city, with very few inhabitants, and the houses were crude. The streets were filthy and sodden, and feces and urine from both humans and animals were everywhere.

Wei Zhan had seen on numerous occasions the inhabitants of stone houses dumping their sewage into the streets, where maggots and flies swarmed.

Fighting his revulsion, Wei Zhan once again dragged his wife away.

But Yingbao stopped him, whispering, “Let’s buy something before we leave.”

Finding a city-like place had been difficult; she wanted to see what local products they had.

“Alright.” Covering his nose and mouth with his collar, Wei Zhan followed Yingbao, looking around.

There were few shops in the city. Discounting the tall stone castles, it looked like a market town.

Yingbao quickly found a jewelry store. Taking out two porcelain vases, she asked, “Would you want these?”

The shop assistant’s eyes widened. Although he didn’t understand what the dark-haired foreigner said, he understood her meaning.

The assistant quickly ran into the back room, informing a middle-aged man, “Sir, a foreigner has come to our shop to sell Eastern porcelain.”

The middle-aged man stood up immediately and rushed to the front of the shop. Sure enough, there were two exquisite porcelain pieces on the counter.

They were decorated with the beautiful and graceful images of Eastern women, as well as exotic plants, and some blocks of characters that he couldn’t understand.

Yes, this was the Eastern porcelain that was hard to come by.

However…

The man sized up the Eastern man and woman in front of him. Seeing their outfits made entirely from luxurious Eastern silk, he couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

In his many years of business, this was the first time he had ever seen anyone wearing such exquisite silk clothing. The hem of the dress even trailed along the ground; it was such a waste.

He turned his eyes and asked, “Do you want to sell the porcelain bottles?”

Yingbao and Wei Zhan looked at him.

The middle-aged man held up a finger, “A gold coin for a pair of porcelain bottles.” He wanted to say a silver coin but didn’t dare when the words came to his mouth—not because he was afraid of them, but out of reverence for the silk they were wearing.

To make it clear, the middle-aged man with a beard took a gold coin from his pocket, shook it, and pointed at the two porcelain bottles, “A gold coin for two porcelain bottles.”

Yingbao roughly understood and held up a palm, then turned it over, “Ten gold coins.”

She saw that the coin in the man’s hand was indeed made of gold, weighing about four taels.

Four taels of gold could be exchanged for about four taels of silver, and the porcelain bottle she brought out only cost one tael of silver.

The middle-aged man furrowed his brow and glared at Yingbao, “A pair of porcelain pieces for ten gold coins? Are you crazy?”

Seeing his tone was unfriendly, Yingbao also put on a straight face and directly took back the porcelain bottles.

The middle-aged man with a beard gasped when he saw that the woman could perform witchcraft, and hurriedly shouted, “Stop!”

However, Yingbao and Wei Zhan ignored him and walked away.

The middle-aged man with a beard rushed out but was already unable to see them. He couldn’t help but beat his chest and stomp his feet in regret.

His silk, just like that, was gone.

Yingbao dragged Wei Zhan around a few more places and finally reached an agreement with a duke in the city, selling him a batch of silk and some porcelain.

The duke was very generous. He took all the tens of rolls of silk and dozens of porcelain bowls and dishes that Yingbao brought out, and paid them in gold coins on the spot.

Holding a large bag of earned gold coins, Yingbao happily returned home with Wei Zhan.

Wei Zhan stayed at the Divine Mansion, starting to plant the crops they had procured.

Days later, the crops began to mature. One of them, a tuberous crop, had a very high yield. A single plant could produce a large bunch, which Wei Zhan named “Earth Egg.”

People in a certain place use this as a staple food, they clean it, boil it in water, peel it, and eat it directly.

“Yingbao, we’ll distribute the Earth Egg to the villagers to plant.” Wei Zhan brought a cooked Earth Egg to his wife with great excitement.

In the future, with this kind of crop, the people will definitely not go hungry.

Yingbao took a bite of the cooked Earth Egg, it was indeed tasty, “I didn’t expect that place to have such high-yield crops. Wei Zhan, after a while, let’s travel around again, we might find even more high-yield crops.”

Although Dazhou seems peaceful and prosperous now, many people in the countryside are still hungry and cold.

Normally, an acre of land can yield one or two stones of grain, barely enough for survival after taxes. If a natural disaster occurs, the whole family would starve. However, the yield of these Earth Eggs is extremely high, with one acre of land able to yield over a thousand pounds.

Over a thousand pounds per acre! After taxes, what’s left is more than enough to feed a large family.

“Alright!” Wei Zhan happily set to work in the field, applying his magic to promote the growth of the crops.

This time, they brought back many exotic crops from foreign lands, and he wanted to plant and examine each one, selecting the most efficient ones for the villagers to grow.

Nuannuan came running over, followed by Jiang Jie’s little son, Jiang Qi. “Dad! Mom! What are you doing?”

Yingbao: “Your father is planting crops. Since you’ve been practicing the Eternal Spring Technique, why not help him out?”

“Alright!” Nuannuan ran over, her fingers dancing, forming a series of magical seals.

The seedlings slowly grew, swaying like graceful dancers.

Yingbao sat in a rocking chair, quietly watching this scene, her mind wandering far away.

If the population of Dazhou is sufficient, she would like to send them to other places around the world to reproduce and thrive.

In the future, the whole world will belong to Dazhou.
