The happy life of a prodigal

I will give you 5000 taels of silver, and bring some guards from the mansion, and bring the seedlings to the south of the Yangtze River, where you can cultivate the sweet potatoes. "

When Qian Zheng heard this, he was slightly taken aback.

He has grown so big, the farthest place he has gone is to escape from his hometown to Gyeonggi.

For him, he was still a little apprehensive about going to a place in the south of the Yangtze River where his living customs were completely different from his own.

but......

Since the young master gave him 5000 taels of silver and the guards in the mansion, it shows that the young master attaches great importance to the cultivation of sweet potatoes.

And he also didn't want to hand over the sweet potatoes that he had taken care of for so long, so he couldn't rest assured.

After hesitating for a moment, his face revealed a firm look, nodded and said: "Yes, I understand!"

Fang Xiu glanced at him and said, "Don't force it. If you don't want to go to Jiangnan, there are other people in the house."

Hearing this, Qian Zheng hurriedly said: "Master, you have misunderstood the little one, the little one is just afraid that he will be in a place in the south of the Yangtze River and not familiar with it, which will delay things.

Two roads in the south of the Yangtze River are affluent places. I heard that autumn and winter are also very warm, which should be suitable for the growth of sweet potatoes.

The young one is willing to serve the young master and go to Liangdao in the south of the Yangtze River to plant sweet potatoes.

The little one must live up to the young master's expectations! "

After all, he hadn't read the book for a few days, and wanted to say something to express his firm belief and admiration for the young master.

But what he said was a bit confusing, and he didn't express what he wanted to express.

Fortunately...

The young master didn't care about these.

Fang Xiu got up, walked in front of Qian Zheng, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "My young master guesses that sweet potatoes should be some kind of food, and if they can be cultivated, they are no less important than rice and wheat.

What does this mean, no one in this mansion knows better than you, right? "

When Qian Zheng heard this, he was slightly taken aback.

He cultivated sweet potatoes because of the young master's order, but he never thought about why the young master cultivated the sweet potatoes.

I never thought about what the sweet potato does.

However, the young master's words awakened him and made him suddenly understand.

This sweet potato is most likely a grain!

He fled from the Central Plains to the land of Gyeonggi, and no one can understand the pain of lack of food better than him.

There is no one who desires food more than him, and knows the value of food better.

If this sweet potato is really a kind of food, and the yield can be higher than that of rice and wheat.

Then, wouldn't people all over the world have one more food to grow and one more food to choose from.

When the wheat is hit by a disaster, can this sweet potato be used as an emergency thing?

If so, was it possible for my hometown to escape such a disaster?

Thinking of this, Qian Zheng showed determination on his immature face, raised his eyes, looked at Fang Xiu with a look full of fighting spirit, and said seriously: "Young ones understand, and young ones will definitely be able to grow sweet potatoes!"

Seeing this, Fang Xiu nodded, sat down on the chair again, waved his hands, and said: "Go to the accountant to get the money, and other necessary supplies, go to the steward, and he will arrange for you.

There are also guards. From Gyeonggi to Jiangnan, you need to pass through the Central Plains. There has just been a disaster there, and it is a bit chaotic. It is always good to bring more guards.

If you encounter something that cannot be solved, you can go to the local government for help, and they will say that it is an order from General Dingyuan, and someone will help you..."

Qian Zhengduan stood upright, saluted respectfully, looked at Fang Xiu with an extremely serious expression, and said solemnly: "Yes, young master!"

Fang Xiu waved his hand and said casually: "Okay, let's go down if there is nothing to do!"

"Yes, young master, the little one will leave first..."

Qian Zheng saluted again, then turned and left.

Fang Xiu watched his back disappear into the courtyard gate, and sighed inwardly.

Let's not talk about how much time it takes to travel from Gyeonggi to Jiangnan in this era when there are only horse-drawn carriages.

In terms of the countless bandits along the way and various irresistible factors such as earthquakes and rainstorms, whether the money can reach Jiangnan is a problem.

Not to mention a small sweet potato seedling.

Regarding this matter, Fang Xiu no longer had much expectations.

It can only be said to do one's best and obey the destiny!

When Fang Xiu was thinking wildly, Xiu'er had already walked up to him with a glass of water, and said in a crisp voice, "Master, your water."

Fang Xiu picked up his teacup, took a sip, and asked, "By the way, I heard that the house next door was sold a few days ago?"

The house he was talking about was the one next door to Fangfu.

It is only a wall away from Fangfu.

Originally, it was the residence of the rich and famous families in the south of the Yangtze River for the children of the mansion to go to Beijing to rush for the exam.

It was only later that I heard that the mansion of General Dingyuan, one of the nine important generals in the imperial court, was next door.

It seemed that he was afraid of getting into any unnecessary disputes, so he bought another secluded house in the north of the city. The most important thing was that there was no Xungui mansion nearby.

This house has also been left unused for seven years.

It's not that no one came to see the house in the past seven years, but they all gave up when they heard that the next door was the Fang Mansion.

Speaking of which, it has something to do with Fang Xiu.

After all, those who can afford this kind of house, which one is not a rich and famous family in the local area, can be regarded as a wealthy family in the capital.

There are more or less handsome girls in the mansion.

But the one who lives next door is the most famous dandy in the capital, who is said to be a bully and bully, and commits all sorts of crimes—the eldest young master of Fangfu.

This... who else would dare to buy this house.

Therefore, Fang Xiu became curious when he heard that the house next door had been bought.

Xiu'er looked at her young master, shook her head, and said, "I don't know, I heard it seems to be a girl..."

a girl?

When Fang Xiu heard this, his face showed surprise.

Thanks to the previous one, among all the girls from good families in the capital, when they heard the name of the young master of Fangfu, which one would not run away?

Although during this period of time, my opinion about myself has changed, but it hasn't reached the point where others will take the initiative to "throw me in my arms"......

At this time, living next to me, isn't it a lack of heart?

Thinking of this, Fang Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly, and said casually: "Xiao Chun, you go to visit next door, be more polite, oh yes, bring some gifts.

In any case, they are all neighbors, and we will always have to deal with them in the future. "

"Yes, sir."

After Bai Xiaochun took the order, he turned and left the backyard.

Fang Leisure came to have nothing to do, but told Xiu'er the story of the female ghost in white that had not been finished a long time ago.

"Later, seven years later, a man who came to Beijing to take the exam didn't know the danger of the ancient well, and he didn't know the existence of the female ghost in white because he didn't have money on him.

I stayed in a cheap house near Gujing Street, and one night..."

Before reaching the crucial point, Xiu'er covered her eyes and whispered, "Master, why don't you stop talking..."

Xiu'er has always been this courageous. She ran away in fright after hearing half of the story about the female ghost in white.

Seeing her like this, Fang Xiu always thought it was a little funny, but ignored her, and continued: "The scholar was studying, and suddenly there was a knock on the door..."

dong dong dong-

At this time, there was a knock on the door in the yard at the right time.

Xiu'er was so frightened that she trembled, and tremblingly said: "Young master, don't scare the servants!"

Fang Xiu frowned slightly, and said, "I'm here, how can I knock on the door?"

When Xiu'er heard this, her heart skipped a beat and she opened her eyes to take a look.

Sure enough, his young master was sitting in front of him, how could he imitate the sound of knocking on the door.

So say...

"Damn—!"

Xiu'er couldn't help screaming.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha......"

At this time, there was a burst of laughter outside the door.

Fang Xiu and Xiu'er looked in the direction of the courtyard gate at the same time.

Zhao Yan peeked inside and saw Fang Xiu looking at her.

So, he walked out from behind the door generously, went to sit down in front of Fang Xiu, and said with a smile: "Why didn't I know that there is a second part to the story of the female ghost in white?"

Fang Xiu glanced at Zhao Yan, a little speechless.

Her Royal Highness, the princess, turned out to be like a child who likes to play tricks on others.

At this time, Xiu'er also reacted.

The sound of knocking on the door just now was obviously made by Miss Zhao.

So, the mood also relaxed a lot.

She stared at Zhao Yan with a pair of pretty eyes, and said, "Miss Zhao, why are you here?"

Zhao Yan smiled and said, "Why, aren't you welcome?"

"No no, of course not..."

Xiu'er quickly waved her hand and said, "It's just that Miss Zhao can leave there casually?"

It refers to the palace, of course.

Zhao Yan smiled when she heard this, and said, "It was not possible before, but now it is possible."

Xiu'er didn't understand what it means: it was not possible before, but it is possible now.

Fang Xiu was clear in his heart.

Because the Emperor Chu had already agreed to Zhao Yan, allowing her to go out of the palace and open the house.

Since there is already a princess mansion outside the palace, naturally there is no need to be confined to the small palace.

Although in the eyes of most people, the palace is not too small.

Fang Xiu looked at Zhao Yan, but suddenly remembered another thing.

There was a look of surprise on his face, and he said, "So you are the one who lacks heart..."

Having said that, I stopped.

Because Zhao Yan's expression has cooled down.

"What is missing?"

Fang Xiu said with a straight face: "It's nothing, you heard it wrong."

Zhao Yan glanced at him angrily, and didn't continue to dwell on this issue, but explained: "I haven't figured out where the princess mansion is.

Aren't you going to participate in Qiuwei?

After your autumn is over, accompany me to take a look at the mansion in the capital, I am making a decision.

Take this as my temporary foothold. "

When Fang Xiu heard this, he frowned slightly, wanting to tell her.

There are many better options for a foothold in Bola.

But seeing Zhao Yan's expression, after thinking about it, I decided to forget it.
