Chapter 90: Troubles After the Fame
Wu Qingyuan was far from 100% sure of the fusion of Amo’s powers, but he was lucky, and although the process was thrilling, in the end, Amo and the child were safe.
Fortunately, he has multiple powers, one of which is also a wood-based power with healing functions- even if he did lose one crystal nucleus, it will not be a big deal on his body. And Amo who fused the crystal nucleus also became an awakened person, his physical strength changed, and the danger of giving birth to a child finally passed, and they had an extra white fat son.
It really is a white, chubby boy- unlike most babies who are born wrinkled, red, and have yet to grow, their son is born white and chubby. His skin is clear, and his facial features are a lot like his but his eyes are like Amo’s.
His struggling and kicking feet were also very vigorous, not like a newborn child’s at all, everyone who sees him is surprised and would immediately praise that this child was really well raised in the womb!
Wu Qingyuan was also a little surprised but he guessed that it might really be related to him being an awakened person, and this child probably inherited the genes of his powers so his physical fitness was different from that of ordinary babies.
For this son, he is both happy and hateful, if it were not for this child, Amo would not have suffered so much. But when he thought that this was his and Amo’s child, the child that Amo desperately wanted to give him, he couldn’t say what he liked in his heart, this little bastard was a result of his two fathers tossing around.
Amo was blessed by the misfortune this time and fused his spatial energy to become an awakened person- his physical fitness had made a qualitative leap, and he woke up the next day in good spirits. The first thing he went to see was his abdominal wound.
After Wu Qingyuan explained that he would be fine since he still had wooden powers, and he took off his clothes to show him that only a new scar was no big deal, Amo hugged him and continued to cry.
The moment Wu Qingyuan dug out the energy crystal nucleus, his heart ached terribly, he knew that his Brother Wu liked him and spoiled him, but he didn’t expect that he had such an important position in Wu Qingyuan’s heart…
Amo cried hard and it was useless to comfort him- finally, he could only hold him to let his emotions vent out in his heart. He knew that Amo was born and raised here, and some concepts engraved in their bones can not be changed. No one here will believe that there are men who do not pay attention to the production of offspring so Amo will always be so stubborn that he must give him a child and that he does not want the Wu family to die.
When he cried enough and hugged him enough, Wu Qingyuan held his son to him, and the way the little guy stared at them and giggled made the hearts of the two parents quickly melt.
In the end, the two discussed naming their son, his formal name would be Wu Jichen, and his nickname is Qiaode. There was no particular meaning to it- the two names are ones selected casually through a book.

When the villager’s fields were harvested in September, Wu Qingyuan was very happy, and in the name of accumulating blessings for his children, he reduced the rent of half of the rent to all the villagers who rented the Wu family’s fields. This resulted in more people coming to the Wu family to visit and give gifts.
Jiang Da and the others, who had agreed to come to buy grain, encountered the happy event of the Wu family again and naturally gave gifts to congratulate them.
“Congratulations, congratulations, Brother Wu is so blessed, his Fulang gave birth to a son for him as his first child!”
Jiang Da patted Wu Qingyuan on the shoulder, laughed, and congratulated him, saying that Wu Qingyuan and Zhang Dazhu are indeed very lucky. Marrying a ger that not only has a child so quickly but also has a son to be born first is gratifying. Many girls who marry may not be able to give birth to a son, this depends on their personal luck, he was hoping his wife would give birth to a son as his second child.
“Thank you, Brother Jiang- is this my sister-in-law?”
The ancient people attached importance to the male heir, Wu Qingyuan knew it so he did not get angry with his words, he only accepted the congratulations with a smile. His eyes fell on a woman and a little girl who came with Jiang Da.
“Yes, yes, this is my wife, this is my eldest daughter, I thought that since this time I don’t have to travel far away and since our place is surrounded by water, I could take them out to see the mountains and rivers here to broaden their sights, in addition, there are the things you mentioned in the letter, Brother Wu…”
Jiang Da nodded unabashedly, obviously, compared with Shiqiao Town, their hometown is much more open to women and gers, and the folk style is much more open than here.
“Oh, Brother Jiang really knows the good roasted tea master?”
Jiang Da’s words fell, and Wu Qingyuan put down the teacup and cheered up.
When he planned to grow tea, he began to plan his steps- he could get the seeds of top tea, and he could also use his special energy to grow the best tea, but if he wanted to do the tea business, these were not enough, he also needed a group of good tea masters to roast the tea, otherwise his tea leaves on several hills were being grown for nothing.
It’s just that stir-frying tea is a learned job- in Shiqiao Town, those that can roast tea and those that have good skill in roasting teas have long been invited by several large landowners. Although he wants to invite a good tea master, it is not easy. In this regard he has no connections, so he can only turn to Jiang Da, who has a wider network, and now that the tea will be picked in a while, he has been worried about this matter.
“Yes, I do know a good master of tea, that is, my wife, although my wife is a woman, but this craft is her family inheritance, and she will not lose to those famous tea roasting masters, is Brother Wu willing to invite her?”
Jiang Da nodded, his expression full of confidence.
“Of course! If my sister-in-law really has this craft, of course, this younger brother is willing, but I don’t know if sister-in-law would be willing to pass on this craft to outsiders?”
Wu Qingyuan nodded happily without hesitation, people here have instinctive discrimination against women and gers, but he doesn’t, as long as they are talented. But the tea roasting master he wants is not someone who can only stay temporarily, but someone who could help for a long time. Jiang Da’s wife cannot stay in Shiqiao Town for a lifetime, and the only solution is for the other party to teach his family the unique tea roasting craft.
“This craft can be taught. About Boss Wu’s character, I also heard my husband say there is nothing wrong with teaching Boss Wu this, but I have a condition, if Boss Wu agrees, this matter will be done.”
Jiang Da’s wife spoke calmly, and he could see that she was different from ordinary women of other businessmen, very courageous, in fact, few of the ladies in charge who could do business were simple.
“Sister-in-law, please say so.” Wu Qingyuan smiled, nodded in no hurry and stretched out his hand to signal the other party to ask for conditions.
“Boss Wu is a cheerful person who doesn’t talk nonsense, I can give you the craft of roasting tea, but I hope that in the future, Boss Wu will provide us with five thousand catties of grain every year, as well as one thousand catties of dry tea.”
“It’s no problem to increase the amount of grain but I can only give about five hundred catties of dry tea.”
His grain production can continue to expand, but tea is scarce and expensive. He grows tea worth thousands of gold on several hills, seeking quality rather than quantity- a large number of production and planting will only reduce the price of tea so the quantity must not be much but the quality was high.
“But I would like to see my sister-in-law’s craftsmanship first.” In the end, Wu Qingyuan added this, favors must be returned but business should be clearly settled.
“Okay then..”
Jiang Da and his wife looked at each other and smiled, obviously satisfied with the result of this transaction.
………..
As Jiang Da said, his wife does have good tea roasting skills passed down in her family, and after testing Jiang Da’s wife’s tea roasting skills, Wu Qingyuan signed a new cooperation contract with Jiang Da on the spot and began to prepare for the training of tea roasting masters.
Because it takes time to teach the craft of roasting tea, after the grain was loaded onto the ship, the other members of Jiang Da’s caravan will go back to their hometown while Jiang Da and his family stayed behind in the Wu family’s for a while, waiting for the completion of the craft instruction before leaving.
During his stay, Jiang Da was also very interested in Wu Qingyuan’s newly launched daily necessities, these things can be used regardless of the land boundaries or race. He saw the business opportunities at a glance, if not for the limited production of Wu’s factory, he would’ve let his brothers bring a batch of these goods back this time.
However, they could not be purchased at the moment so he also negotiated and signed an order contract with Wu Qingyuan, who originally already wanted to sell these things overseas through Jiang Da’s network, so he naturally agreed, and continued to expand the factory.
Because of the hot sale of the first batch of soap, toothpaste and toothbrushes, and other daily necessities, the Wu family’s shop swept the market by storm. Many businessmen who heard the news also wanted to order with him like Jiang Da but the goods in Wu Ji’s shop are also in short supply so the expansion of the factory is imperative.
This was something that Wu Qingyuan both expected and did not expect, he guessed that once these things appeared in large quantities, they would definitely cause a storm but he didn’t expect the effect to be so good, blowing the market up like a violent wind.
As a result, the Wu family was not only famous in Shiqiao Town, but their fame instantly spread throughout Jiangyi County, and even then, their reputation was still spreading outside, increasing in many places.
As the saying goes, people fear getting famous just as pigs fear getting fat, the Wu family’s rise to fame so quickly exceeded Wu Qingyuan’s expectations. While making money made him happy it also made him worried- he has not yet had time to find a stable backer, and the result of this fame is not worth looking forward to for him.
Those scholars who took their exams won’t be coming back for at least a while and he can’t wait for them. He can’t wait to carefully consider which influential person to find as a backer now that things have developed to this point, he needs to quickly find someone to protect the Wu family first, and then think about it later, he doesn’t have time to choose slowly.
