Bab 857: The Cement Factory

Su Binglan and Su Chun had to pass through the prefecture on the way to the capital. When they revisited the prefecture, they discovered how much livelier it was.

More and more people began setting up stalls and shopping on the streets. It was no longer as deserted as before, and everyone was smiling. As the duo looked on from afar, they saw several factories on what used to be a wasteland on the eastern side of the prefecture.

Many people went in and out of the factory, and the surroundings were full of greenery. Su Binglan could tell the people had planted crops there. She looked to the west and saw a vast land of crops.

At a glance, she knew they were potatoes and sweet potatoes. In addition to Teng County's grain, there would be a certain amount stored in the granary. After the summer harvest, the people could use the stored crops as seeds to spread throughout Dingzhou and the border.
