51: Chapter 51: Seedlings in the Array 51: Chapter 51: Seedlings in the Array Peter Brown still bought some game from the villagers to entertain the two of them, and only sent them away after they had finished eating.
Reuben Taylor wanted a villa here as well, so Peter had no choice but to give him one too.
Edward Martin was very happy to get a villa.
Watching the car leave the village, Peter finally relaxed completely.
These two were purely bad friends, but Peter enjoyed spending time with them.
“Brother, where are the herbs you bought?” Rachel Williams asked at this time.
Hearing his sister’s question, Peter Brown said, “The delivery should be here tomorrow.
Has the land been prepared?”
“Of course, Father personally supervised it, and it went very quickly.
Oh, right, a boss named Daniel Pangbourne from the city had someone bring another hundred jars of wine, asking you to make another hundred jars for him.”
Peter Brown nodded and handed a jade talisman to his sister: “This is a protective talisman.
This jade is worth a lot of money, over a hundred thousand.
Find a string to hang it around your neck, it’s a very good thing.”
This jade talisman was of much better quality than the ones given to Edward and his friends.
It looked crystal clear at a glance, and Rachel loved it at first sight, exclaiming, “That’s great!”
“Peter, what did you give her?” His parents also came over and asked when they saw Rachel holding the jade talisman.
Peter took out two more talismans and passed one to each of them: “Dad, Mom, these jade talismans are protective talismans, very powerful.
This time in the city, Edward almost got hit by a car.
Wearing this talisman saved him from death.
You should both string them up and wear them on your bodies for protection.”
“Really?” Raven Walter looked incredulously at the talismans.
“Just accept what the child gives you, why ask so many questions?”
The mother liked the crystal-clear jade talisman as well and had a smile on her face.
Seeing that his family had accepted the jade talismans Peter had specially inscribed for them, he felt much more at ease.
“Peter, the boss, Mr.
Pang, was in a hurry to get the wine, so I tried to make a jar based on what you have done.
But when I checked the next day, there was no effect.
Why?” Raven Walter was puzzled.
Peter laughed: “Dad, there are some tricks involved.
I’ll teach you another day.”
Peter also thought it would be nice to have his father make the wine.
Raven Walter’s eyes lit up: “Can I learn?”
“Of course, you can all learn.”
“Your sister is going to be married, so don’t teach her.”
Rachel protested with a pout: “That’s unfair!”
“What’s unfair about it?
If you learn, you’ll be giving the secret away to your husband’s family anyway.
On this matter, Raven Walter was quite insistent.
“Peter, isn’t it strange that nothing used to grow on this mountain?
But since we transformed it, everything has grown well, especially the herbs we picked in the mountains.
It only took a few days before they grew really high.
Raven Walter stopped his daughter from learning and asked with curiosity.
Glancing at his father, Peter smiled, “It might be because our transformation changed the feng shui.”
“That’s true, the villagers also think so.”
“Brother, here’s another strange thing.
Our herbal medicine grew so well after being planted on this mountain.
In just a few days, the herbal medicine grew so tall.” Rachel told Peter about this unusual situation.
Peter felt a jolt in his heart and said, “Let me go take a look.” As he spoke, Peter went towards the area where the herbal medicine for wine-making was planted.
Soon, Peter arrived at the spot.
As soon as he got there, Quinn Walker and her mother, as well as Hellen Brown came to greet him.
At a glance, all three women had changed into the new clothes that Peter had given them money to buy.
Their slim, youthful looks were probably due to their new clothes and improved nutrition.
Peter didn’t have time to look at them before squatting down to examine the herbal medicine.
“Peter, are you looking at the herbal medicine?” Quinn Walker asked with a smile.
“I heard it’s growing well?”
“Yeah, isn’t it strange?
Normally, it’s difficult for herbs dug from the mountains to survive when they are planted.
But no matter what kind of herb it is, even if it’s almost dead, as long as it’s planted, it will come back to life after one night and grow vigorously.” Hellen Brown explained excitedly.
“Observe and see how long it takes for a bamboo grass to grow a section.” Peter instructed.
Quinn Walker nodded, “Okay, Peter, I’ll record it carefully.”
This was when Peter stood up and saw that they had planted quite a few herbs for wine-making.
He said: “Quinn, try cutting some branches of these herbs and see if they can survive.”
“Peter, I was just about to tell you that.
Hellen and I accidentally planted a few branches in the ground, and guess what?
The next day they all survived!
How strange is that?” Quinn Walker told him.
Hearing this, Peter was even more confident, saying: “Well, since that’s the case, let’s just plant the wine-making herbs in these plots.
No need to plant too many.”
At this point, Quinn’s mother, Aurelia Green, spoke up: “Peter, there’s one thing you need to pay attention to.
I’ve seen people in the village secretly planting the herbs you use for wine-making.
I feel that your wine is made from just these few herbs, and someone with intentions may have already learned how to make it.”
“Peter, Mom is right.
Be careful about this.
If someone steals your wine recipe, it won’t be good.” Quinn warned.
Hellen Brown added seriously: “Peter, you can’t take this lightly.
Everyone has seen the herbs you’ve planted, and everyone knows about the herbs you bought.
There are only a few of them, and they might figure it out.
And if everyone can make the wine, you won’t be able to do this business anymore.”
Peter knew that the three women were concerned about him and said with a smile: “Don’t worry, not anyone can learn my recipe.
Let them plant if they want to.
I’ve bought some valuable herbs seedlings from East Sea Province this time.
We’ll focus on those herbs later, and keep a certain scale here.
You should shift your focus to the new seedlings.”
“Does it make even more money than making wine?” Amora asked.
At this point, Peter finally looked at Aurelia Green.
Her health had improved considerably.
He asked with concern: “Are you feeling better, Madam?”
Perhaps remembering that Peter had seen her body before, Aurelia’s face flushed slightly and she forced a smile: “Much better.”
“My mom has been getting better day by day.
Thank you so much, Peter.” Quinn thanked Peter gratefully.
Peter smiled, “If those herbs are grown well, they’ll be worth a lot of money.
But I don’t expect too much.
As long as everyone lives well, that’s enough.
When the herbs are ready, we can use them.
I also have an idea to run this place well.
In addition to herbs, we can raise fish and poultry.
When the time comes, there will be more work for everyone, so I need to hire more people.
The village will grow because of this.”
The three women looked at Peter admiringly.
They had witnessed the development here since Peter’s return.
“Peter, we’ll follow whatever you say.
Just tell us what to do!” Quinn said with determination.
