Even for him, his two meals were just a bowl of porridge with wild vegetables and a piece of red bean cake. He really couldn't eat anything else.
When he was training in the military camp, when the war in the north was tense, he also ate coarse grains and drank turbid water with the soldiers, but snail meat, which looked like multi-bearded worms to him, was absolutely unacceptable. Touched.
As for the sweet lychee soup, he is not used to drinking it as a grown man.
I didnt expect that she would like it.
Yan Kejin raised her eyebrows.
The changes have been so great that it is difficult to avoid doubts.
But...that's what's interesting, isn't it?
It wont take so long to say thank you, right?
Yan Qi hurriedly said: "The princess gave a few bags of sweet potatoes to the masters and asked them to plant them as seeds on the mountain. She said that there was no need to pick the land, and she also taught them several ways to eat sweet potatoes. There are also fodder beans..."
To be honest, Yan Qi couldn't figure out why the feed eaten by the livestock was seen and remembered by the princess.
Finally, I also mentioned a crop called sugar cane. I have never seen it before, but the princess seems to know it. She drew a picture of sugar cane and asked the master to pay attention to it, and said..."
"say what?"
After they have grown the seeds, ask them to send them to the Jinnan Palace. She will give them food and cloth in return.
Yan Kejin was silent for a moment and then ordered: "Send someone to look for this crop and see what it is used for."
"yes!"
Go and urge me, its time to set off. If you dont leave, do you want to sleep in the wild tonight?
"yes!"
The carriage rumbled forward, bumping from time to time.
Xu Yin held her tea cup steady, took a sip of tea, and lowered her head to write down her farming plan.
As the charcoal pen wanders around, a dragon and a phoenix dance in cursive handwriting.
Mother Feng hesitated to speak, but in the end she didnt ask anything.
At this moment, she became more and more sure: the fourth girl may have been hiding her clumsiness in the past.
Would you like to report back to Madam?
But Nanman was too far away from Beijing, and the one-way journey took two months.
Those who are capable of envoys, like her, have to follow the fourth girl to the palace. Once they enter the southern barbarian territory, they will not be able to get out.
Lets spend money to find unrelated people to deliver the message, but were afraid of being unsafe. If the prince discovers it, he wont be able to explain why...
Mother Fengs heart turned over and over again, and she finally chose to pretend she was unaware.
Anyway, the madam sent her here to keep an eye on the fourth girl. She only asked the fourth girl not to run back to the capital. The other madams did not give any orders.
So as long as the fourth girl doesn't run away, anything can be said.
Xu Yin didn't know what was going on in Nanny Feng's heart. She was busy.
After writing the preliminary plan, start searching for tools available in the system mall.
The beginning of spring has passed and spring plowing is in full swing.
As the carriage came all the way, she saw the people and oxen in the fields. The plows they pulled were extremely laborious, which greatly reduced the efficiency of plowing. This showed that the curved shaft plow had not yet been invented.
Quyuanli's blueprint system is available in the mall, but it's a bit expensive, costing 1,000 energy points.
However, there was a reward of 10,000 energy points, so Xu Yin did not hesitate to redeem a blueprint for an improved lightweight curved shaft plow.
Mommy, can we buy land here?
"Here? In Baiyue County? It's better to go to Baigui County and buy it." Nanny Feng thought for a while and then added, "Perhaps, the prince has already bought Zhuangzi." Xu Yin did not say, "Men's things belong to men." , hers is her own" idea. If King Jinnan was willing to donate his village for her own use, she would be able to save money and buy land.
only-
"His village must have been cultivated. I want to buy a few acres of wasteland. You know I have never farmed before. Although I have read a lot of books, they are all just words on paper. In order not to waste, let's start with the wasteland."
She bought a lot of seeds along the way. As long as they were available in the system mall, she replaced them with superior seeds produced by the system to see if she could cultivate high-yield and high-quality crops that could be planted in batches in Nanman.
At this moment, she was extremely grateful to the peasant girl for her farming experience, which is now a precious asset!
The governors of the five Nanman counties have arrived at the capital of Bagui County one after another, waiting to be summoned by King Jinnan.
Among the five people, the ones who least welcomed King Jinnans arrival were the governors of Baiyue and Minyue counties.
They are named Liu Cheng and Wang Zhihai. They are cousins and relatives of a concubine in the emperor's harem.
Early on, the two families were very poor common people. It is said that one person can achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven. When his cousin was chosen by the emperor who was out of the palace to escape the summer, they were selected into the harem, and they followed him to get an official position.
The Nanman people were not willing to come to others, but they wanted to come.
Here, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so dont make money too conveniently.
People are poor, so they have to pay taxes, right?
Over the years, the two of them have enriched their own pockets through arbitrary increases in taxes, and built their respective mansions more magnificently than the palace compound.
The emperor didn't know. He thought that the taxes from the Southern Barbarians were so pitiful that it didn't matter whether they had them or not, so he pretended to be rich and gave them to the deposed prince.
Once this is classified as a fief, only one-half of the taxes on the land need to be paid to the treasury, and the remaining one-half must be left to the owner of the fief.
"Do you think King Jinnan will send someone to check our account?" Liu Cheng walked around with an impatient look on his face, "If we check it, wouldn't it be easy to find out what we did? There are still good results for you and me. eat?"
Wang Zhihai also had a headache. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with a solution. He couldn't help but look fierce: "It's better to simply..."
He made a gesture of raising and lowering the knife.
Liu Cheng shook his head: "No! The Yanzi team that follows you all have very strong martial arts skills. It is difficult for ordinary martial arts masters to defeat them. But for the top masters, you and I have no way out."
What does cousin say we should do?
Liu Cheng thought about it and said, "It's better to smooth out the obvious ones first."
It means to return the taxes withheld this year first. As long as you can hide it from King Jinnan, its okay to have a temporary loss of income.
But when I think about it, I may only have the low salary of a county guard in the future, and there will no longer be the extra money that I used to earn. I can't help but be irritated, wishing that King Jinnan would die on his horse and never reach the fiefdom!
Suddenly, Liu Cheng came up with an idea: "Yes! Has he never accepted a concubine? The position of the principal concubine is advantageous to the prime minister's house. Aren't the two concubine positions still vacant? Find an opportunity for you and my wife to take him Let the girls in the house show off their faces... As for men, there are very few people who dont feel itchy when they see a beautiful woman..."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled proudly, as if they already had a chance to win.
In the guest room next door, the governors of the other three counties were not as bold as these two.
They were still looking forward to the arrival of King Jinnan.
"Our county is poor! Bandits often rob the roads." The governor of Qianzhong County sighed, "The bandits are rampant and domineering, making life difficult for the people!"
Baiye County Shouhe: "Why is it not! I heard that King Jin Nan loves and hates, and he loves the people and hates criminals. He hopes that he can deter the fierce mountain bandits, and the people can live a stable day."
Besides the beautiful words, there is another unfinished meaning: once the public security within the jurisdiction is improved, it will be even more perfect if I follow Queen Jinnan to gain some political achievements and try to change to a richer county after three years!
The governor of Baigui County stroked his beard, smiled helplessly, and said nothing.
His ideas are different from those of these two colleagues.
He not only hoped that the arrival of King Jinnan would kill the greed of Liu Cheng and Wang Zhihai, but he was also worried that King Jinnan would be colluded with those two people.
So what if you cared about the people before? Now he is just a deposed prince who has lost the emperor's heart. He was demoted by the emperor to a barren land like Nanman. Is there any possibility of going further?
Who can bear such a gap?
He estimated that King Jinnan had no intention of revenge in his heart, but without the imperial edict, he could not leave the fiefdom. Who else could take revenge except the southern barbarian people?
In short, the governors of the five counties each have their own thoughts.
