“You probably can’t sell it as a flower, but a wild rose is also a medicinal herb.
“First, it could heal wounds and eliminate fatigue.
“Secondly, it had the effect of regulating body temperature and replenishing blood. It could also play a role in maintaining beauty.
“Third, it can regulate meridians and relieve pain. It also improves your bladder and reduces gastrointestinal diseases. It has a good effect on relieving constipation.
“The most important thing is that it can be drunk as a tea, just like chrysanthemums.”
“Tea?” Hu Chun’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.
It was said that chrysanthemums were considered high-class tea. Although this rose tea wasn’t as expensive, it was much better than farming crops.
Thinking of this, he got a little excited.
“Doctor Gu, please don’t tell anyone about this,” he pleaded.
Gu Chengrui was stunned for a moment before he knew what he was thinking. He said, “Sure, but if you want to sell these roses at a high price, you have to farm at scale like chrysanthemums.
“So after you settle down, it’s best to work together with the others. Otherwise, you won’t be able to defend your secret and develop well.”
When Hu Chun heard him say this, he nodded repeatedly and replied, “I understand. Thank you for your reminder. We won’t hide anything deliberately.”
“Okay. 1 can buy them from you if you can’t farm much early on. I’ll also tell you how to process it.”
“Thank you, thank you so much. I’ll head back for now.” Hu Chun bowed before turning around and running down the mountain.
After Gu Chengrui saw him off, he turned around and washed his hands. He then continued squeezing pickled vegetables together with Zhou Ying.
At the same time, he said, “This is their destiny. We’ve been walking around the mountains for so long and didn’t even see a patch of wild roses.”
“That’s right. But it’s good that they’re planning on planting it. We can just go over and collect them, which will save us a lot of trouble.
“You’re right.” Gu Chengrui agreed, and the two of them got busy.
On the other end, after Hu Chun returned, he found a few elders and explained the use of wild roses to them. “What do you guys think? Regardless, 1 want to stay.”
“If that’s the case, then we’ll stay.” Uncle Hu agreed.
The others also echoed one after another.
After that, they asked for everyone’s opinion.
Of course, he didn’t tell them about the wild rose. Otherwise, they wouldn’t know if the news would spread, and they would have no specialty in the local area.
Everyone naturally agreed, as this was much better than staying in a small mountain village.
So, the next morning, they found Tian Jingzhong through the village chief and told him about their settlement.
Tian Jingzhong was a little surprised after hearing this. After all, that place was really barren, so he asked again, “Are you sure?”
“We’re sure. We’ve gone to take a look. Although the land is a little barren, it can be farmed. It’s just a little more difficult to get started.
“There are also many jujube trees on the mountain to the south. We can earn some silver by taking care of them.”
“Alright, since you’ve decided, come with me to the county office and settle the procedures for forming a village,” said Tian Jingzhong. “By the way, you’ll have to decide who will be the village chief.”
The elders pointed at Hu Chun.
Firstly, he could communicate with the locals normally.
Another reason was that he had been a good leader and had a good reputation.
In addition, he was young and daring. With him leading the group, they wouldn’t be afraid of a lack of decision-making in the future.
Hu Chun was stunned for a moment, but he didn’t decline. He nodded directly.
Tian Jingzhong smiled and patted his shoulder. “Kiddo, it seems like you’re pretty popular here.
“Are you literate? Although a village chief’s position isn’t that high up the ranks, you’ll still need to write documents to convey reports to the higher-ups..”
