After being jilted, the entire neighboring village was filled with deep regret.

Chapter 252 Another War Is About to Begin

After learning what had happened, Tang Yu pointed to a child and asked him to write the contract. He then had all the other children read it aloud and, after confirming that there were no problems, everyone signed it.

Su Tai also received a large sum of money, estimated to be around 30,000 taels.

With such a large sum of money in her hands, it's no wonder the villagers were uneasy.

She herself felt that the money was a hot potato, but unfortunately there was no other way. No matter how difficult it was, she had to help. She couldn't let their family get through the crisis while every household in the village suffered losses. Otherwise, the villagers would definitely have a problem with them.

Su Tai re-entered the Fire Time-Space Brick Kiln Factory, immediately requesting 500,000 ceramic pots.

The brick kiln owner was so frightened that he fell to the ground. He only believed that it wasn't a dream after Su Tai paid the deposit.

He quickly got workers to start work and also called his competitors to poach talent. None of his competitors were as capable as him, and many of them were just sitting around doing nothing. They might as well come and work for him to earn money.

After finishing her business, Su Tai returned to the transfer station from the Fire Dimension.

Sell ​​30,000 taels of silver to the automated trading platform. One tael of silver is worth 250 virtual coins, so 10,000 taels is worth 7.5 million virtual coins.

The total value of the 500,000 ceramic pots was 7.5 million virtual coins, which offset each other perfectly.

Three days later, the first batch of ceramic pots was delivered, totaling 100,000.

It was still raining, and there was almost no one in the village.

Before dawn, Su Tai secretly ran to the village entrance and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was watching, took out the batch of pottery basins. Then she knocked on the door of the house closest to the village entrance and asked them to help call people to come and pick up the things.

Upon hearing that it was a serious matter, the villagers dared not delay and immediately went to fetch people.

The villagers have been on tenterhooks these past two days, fearing that their money would be wasted. Now that they've seen the ceramic basin, they've all braved the rain to run to the village entrance to check it out.

When Shen Ying arrived, she was immediately stunned at first glance, exclaiming repeatedly, "Xiao Tai, you're amazing! Where can you find such a skilled craftsman to make such exquisite ceramic pots!"

As he spoke, he touched it and became even happier, "It's sturdy; this kind of ceramic pot isn't easy to break."

Shen Mu said, "Village chief, please be careful. Even if it's not easy to break, you still have to protect it well. These are all valuable silver!"

Everyone else nodded in agreement.

Su Tai smiled and said, "There are 100,000 of them here. They were made day and night. There will be another batch tomorrow. I will notify everyone to come and help when they arrive."

I don't know when it will arrive, everyone just need to go home and wait for news. Today we can start distributing these terracotta pots, and those that need transplanting can begin now.

Everyone quickly lowered their heads and got back to work.

Dividing the pots, transplanting the seedlings, and tending the fields—it's not something that can be done in a day or two.

With something to do, the villagers stopped asking when Su Tai's next batch of ceramic pottery would arrive.

Su Tai also breathed a sigh of relief.

Instantly, I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders.

The next morning, Su Tai noticed people at the village entrance, presumably waiting for the pottery basins. So she turned back and waited until the rain stopped at noon, when everyone was working in the fields, before discreetly going to the village entrance to retrieve the second batch of goods.

This time, it's estimated that there were more workers at the brick kiln, resulting in the delivery of 150,000 bricks.

The villagers who were working couldn't spare the time to come and help, so they could only send the children to keep an eye on things while they were still dry so they could finish their farm work before the rain stopped.

It was almost dark when everyone arrived at the village entrance to move their belongings. They were busy until the middle of the night before finally dispersing.

After such a tiring day, no one will be able to get up early the next day.

Su Tai then delivered the third batch of goods, 100,000 units.

The villagers were so fed up they had no choice but to give up.

They were so numb to even doing the work that no one was worried that Su Tai would run away with the money. Instead, they hoped that she could slow down. They couldn't transplant all these pottery pots in a short time, and they would have to move things day and night. It was exhausting!
After four days of continuous work, all the fruit seedlings in the field were finally transplanted to the wasteland on the hillside behind the village. Everyone had no time to catch their breath and had to continue planting wheat seedlings.

The weather has been unpredictable these past few days; it was sunny for one day out of ten, cloudy for three days, and rained for almost the rest of the time.

Wheat seedlings must be sown on a cloudy day, preferably tomorrow when the sun comes out, otherwise they will have to worry that the crops will not survive.

Under such pressure, Tang Yu couldn't sit still. He took the children to the fields to help with the work. In just one month, the originally gentle and refined Tang Yu transformed himself into a down-to-earth farmer.

This made the villagers look at them with new respect.

Even Ke Yunyun praised him several times.

The children who went to school took Tang Yu as their role model, and not only studied hard, but they were also particularly diligent in doing farm work.

Families who hadn't sent their children over couldn't sit still any longer and came to Tang Yu's door begging her to take their children in.

This was a truly unexpected gain for Tang Yu. Considering the situation at the school, he didn't accept all the children at once, but only the older ones.

Firstly, they learn quickly; at most, they'll be ready to get married in a year or two and can go out to find work, which is more useful for them. The younger children, on the other hand, are less settled and can be given more work to help them develop their character.

The villagers strongly agreed with Tang Yu's approach, which further enhanced his reputation in the village.

Spring plowing was successfully completed despite numerous setbacks.

At this time, war broke out again on the border.

As the bugle sounded, Shen Yi, wearing a helmet, stepped out of the battalion and ran into Zhu Yixuan, who was followed by a group of soldiers.

Xiong Kai stared at Shen Yi with eyes that seemed to be coated with poison, but when Shen Yi looked over, he quickly lowered his head and followed the people in front of him.

Shen Yi frowned and said to Su Chunlin and the others beside him, "It's not good for Xiong Kai to keep watching you. We can't guard against thieves all the time, so I plan to go with the flow and create an opportunity. Through him, you might be able to return home smoothly."

Su Chunlin snorted angrily, "I've been unhappy with that bastard for a long time. If you hadn't stopped me, I would have gone over and killed him."

Shen Zhuang awkwardly touched his nose and retorted, "In-law, it's not that I look down on you, but you're already this old, how could you possibly beat Xiong Kai!"

"Are you stupid? He's a eunuch now, what's there to be afraid of!" Su Chunlin scoffed.

Ye An quickly covered Su Chunlin's mouth, "Uncle Chunlin, Xiong Kai is most sensitive about people saying he's a eunuch. He got into a fight over this before, and he denied it. Don't go around telling everyone, it'll cause trouble!"

Shen Yi nodded. "Ye An is right. What we need now is for you to leave smoothly. We have to endure everything else."

Shen Yi explained his plan to them in detail.

Standing next to Zhu Yixuan, Bai Feng coldly watched this scene and sneered, "Look, it's not like it's the first time they've fought a war, yet they're making such a big deal out of it. As expected of someone from a humble background, even wearing armor can't change their poor and stingy nature."

Zhu Yixuan didn't think much of it, but glanced at Bai Feng out of the corner of his eye and said lightly, "If you could learn more from them, I wouldn't have to work so hard, having to protect you every time we go to the battlefield."
