Chapter 407: Sowing Season

"Yes, young man. We heard we can extract oil from the rapeseed, and the yield will be better than peanuts."

"We heard that from your mother. She also says one acre of peanuts can't yield as much oil as rapeseed." Everyone was polite to Su Wenxiu because he said Shen Qiuhua was his mother.

Besides peanut oil, people could also use lard from pork for cooking. However, pork would yield very little oil and be too costly. People were typically reluctant to buy pork, let alone roast it. Ultimately, it was better to use peanuts or rapeseed for oil extraction.

Su Wenxiu understood what some of the people said. He remembered his mother telling him about it during dinner the night before. He said, "Wait a moment while I go and talk to my mother."

Su Binglan also heard the commotion and approached the noise. Su Wenxiu told her about the situation without waiting for his sister to ask.
