Indeed, the cost was not exorbitant. Their families could afford it. Yet, what if the endeavor didn't yield profits? Numerous medicinal herbs required two or even three years to mature. If the venture proved unprofitable, wouldn't it be a waste?

Ultimately, only a handful of people were genuinely willing to commit to planting two or three mu of medicinal herbs and register with Songshi.
On average, there were merely two or three families per village willing to participate. The largest village boasted five families, while some had none at all.
As Songshi prepared to relay the outcome to Qiao Xuan, she greeted him with a smile and a nod. "Just as I anticipated, the number of participants is sufficient. Keep track of the list, and remember to provide me with updates."
