All Duo wanted to go back and discuss it with Song Benhua, but Bai Wutong readily agreed. “Sure, 1’11 wait for your good news.”

The Imperial Court would lend money for them to cultivate pearl clams and earn money. Bai Wutong was certain that they would agree.

All Duo hurriedly found Song Benhua, who had been pestered by All Mi. “Priest!!! I have something to tell you!!!”

Song Benhua hurriedly pushed Ah Mi away and said seriously, “Alright, 1’11 go with you now.”

All Mi was not tactful at all. ‘Til go too!”

All Duo didn’t want anyone to know about the pearl cultivation. She rolled her eyes at Ah Mi. “This is our tribe’s business. You’re not a member of our tribe yet! Hmph!”

All Mi narrowed her eyes. “1 already am.”

…..
Ah Duo’s eyes widened as she looked at Song Benhua in disbelief. She was shocked that the two of them had progressed so quickly.

Song Benhua was not someone who could be easily won over.

All Duo’s gaze landed on Ah Mi’s bright face. She suddenly understood and gave Song Benhua a teasing smile.

You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t spout nonsense. Seeing that All Duo had misunderstood, Song Benhua hurriedly scolded All Mi, “Don’t spout nonsense!”

All Mi shrugged dismissively. “It doesn’t matter even if you don’t admit it.”

The more he said this, the more others misunderstood. Song Benhua’s usually silent eyes were filled with vitality. He wanted to scold her, but he did not know how to say it. All Duo’s smile deepened. “Alright, we’re all on the same side. Come into the tent with me.”

All Mi was very happy to be called one of them by Ah Duo. Song Benhua was about to reprimand All Duo to not mess around when All Duo had already slipped into the tent.

Ah Mi shamelessly entered the tent with Song Benhua.

All Mi immediately told him about the pearl cultivation.

Song Benhua and All Mi were surprised. They did not expect natural pearls to be raised in such a way.

Ah Duo asked with a frown, “Should we borrow money from the Imperial Court to cultivate sea clams? If they die, we’ll have to compensate with silver.”

“Then our house will be gone!!!”

Ah Duo went to the house that was about to be allocated to take a look. It was big and sturdy and she especially liked it. The thought of losing the house made her a little afraid.

Song Benhua was from the Central Plains and knew the value of pearls better than All Duo. The ores could be mined clean. But if the pearls could be continuously cultivated, it would be an endless treasure basin.

Not only did the Imperial Court provide technology, but they would also lend money to support them in cultivating pearls. It was simply a huge pie that had fallen from the sky.

Song Benhua carefully asked about the monthly interest payment and the total capital investment.

After receiving All Duo’s answer, Song Benhua decided without hesitation, “Let’s cultivate it! Let’s cultivate together with everyone!”

Ah Duo was puzzled when she heard Song Benhua explain, “The interest that the Great Empress requested to repay and the capital are not particularly much. Apart from the harvest from farming every year, we can also enter the workshop to work or enter the mountains to hunt for herbs. Even if we don’t succeed in cultivating pearls, we won’t lose so much that we have to mortgage the house.”

“If we succeed in cultivating it, it will be the only one in the entire Nanjiang, Ling Kingdom, and Hua State. It’s equivalent to holding a treasure bowl in our hands.”

“We still have to thank the Great Empress later! We can’t let her down!”

Bai Wutong was talented and had seen this method of cultivating pearls in ancient books. It would definitely succeed!

It had not been long since he integrated into this place. Unknowingly, Song Benhua’s mind had also formed a subconscious impression of Bai Wutong’s omnipotence.

All Duo and Ah Mi’s eyes widened and they nodded excitedly. “Okay!”

Later, they gathered their clansmen and persuaded everyone to cultivate pearls together.

Most of the clansmen were good at swimming. Song Benhua analyzed the pros and cons for them. As long as someone led them along, they could really cultivate pearls. Everyone quickly agreed.

All the clansmen agreed to cultivate pearls. All Duo immediately went to look for Bai Wutong. “Great Empress, wee’ll cultivate them!”

Bai Wutong smiled at her expression that was dying to start the cultivation immediately. “I thought of something again. While cultivating pearl clams, you can also raise fish. This way, you’ll have another source of income.”

“The young fishes grow quickly. You can earn back the cost of cultivate the pearl clams in less than two years.”

She had checked the relevant information in the space. If she raised some fishes, it could also allows the sea clam to grow’ better. When the sea clam grew and they harvested the pearls, the meat and shells could also be ground into powder to make nutritional feed.

Bai Wutong gave another form of guarantee for them to cultivate pearls. All Duo’s worries immediately dissipated. Based on Bai Wutong’s request, she went to find an area in the sea suitable for cultivating pearls and catch enough young clam.

If they could find more young clams that w’ere one to two years old, the time taken to nurture the pearls w’ould be halved.

All Duo chose a bay suitable for cultivating pearls and brought her clansmen around to look for young clams.

They attracted everyone’s attention by frequenting the sea. Seeing that they were even catching clams the size of fingernails, someone immediately said, “These are such small clams. It’s not even enough to fill the gaps between your teeth. Why are you catching so many?”

There was a lot of seafood by the sea. Many people felt that there was something wrong with their brains.

The total number of people in All Duo and Ah Mi’s tribe w’as too few. Bai Wutong even asked Song Benhua to recruit 500 families to join the pearl cultivation. When someone asked, Song Benhua said, “This is a young clam used to cultivate pearls. The Imperial Court has lent us money and taught us the methods. If you’re interested in learning more, you can come and ask me in detail.”

As soon as he said that, everyone’s eyes widened. “You can cultivate pearls?”

Song Benhua smiled and said, “This is a method that the Great Empress has seen in ancient books. Not only can we cultivate pearls, but we can also raise fish. A few thousand kilograms of fish a year can be supplied to the canning factory to be made into canned fish. It’s another considerable income.”

“The production of pearls is also very high, and w’e’re the only ones with such technology. This is a rare opportunity. Those who w’ant to sign up, hurry up. There are still 500 slots left!”

Zhao Erw’a’s father, Zhao Huai, asked carefully, “What’s going on with the Imperial Court lending funds?”

Before Song Benhua could answer, everyone asked again, “Are w’e working for the Imperial Court? The kind that can get a monthly salary, or are we the bosses?”

“How much exactly can we earn? What if we can’t raise it well?”

Song Benhua replied one by one, “The Imperial Court lent us money to raise the clams. We only need to repay the interest every month. When the time is up, we’ll repay the principal amount. This way, everyone won’t have to worry about not having enough money to invest.”

“Of course, if you can’t repay it, you have to mortgage your property or fields to the Imperial Court.”

“However, even if the cultivation of pearls is unsuccessful, everyone won’t lose out by raising some fish in the bay.”

“If you don’t want to be the boss, you can also come and work when we are hiring people. However, with such a good opportunity, everyone can be the boss. Why are you hesitating?”

“How much you earn depends on how much you want to cultivate and invest. The more you invest, the greater the return.”

There was actually such a good thing!

Thinking of the scene of the pearls being scooped ashore, Zhao Huai, who had money and did not have to borrow money from the Imperial Court, immediately stood up excitedly and said, “1, I’ll sign up!”
