Antique food: The general dotes on his lucky wife

Chen Xi showed off his little baby, and after watching the little baby yawn delicately, he asked Aunt Gui to put him down to sleep.

Now let’s get down to business.

"County Master, I heard that a few more hills in the West Mountain are almost ready, but I don't know when you will allocate them again? We have already finished all the things at hand, and we will definitely be able to serve you, County Master!" "

The implication is that the wealth will not flow to outsiders, and the next benefits will be returned to us!

Chen Xi smiled: "I was about to tell you these things. This is my plan. You can take a look."

The ladies couldn't wait to take the drawings handed over by Chen Xi, and quickly saw Chen Xi's purpose.

"The county owner doesn't plan to continue planting fruit trees? Does he want to plant other trees instead?"

Chen Xi nodded: "Our existing orchards are enough. If we add more, we will have overproduction."

Don't take too big a step, it's best to take it slow and steady.

After all, transportation is not very developed now, and the ripening of fruits has a certain time limit. If the fruits are not sold after that time, they will rot in the ground, and what was originally a profit will turn into a loss.

So after Chen Xi made a plan, he decided to plant the remaining hills with precious flowers, trees and herbs.

Flowers and trees can make money, and medicinal herbs can cure diseases. In today's era, it is not only difficult to eat, but also to seek medical treatment.

Especially because medical conditions are limited, even a small cold can kill people in many cases. The reason is that many people are reluctant to spend money on medicine when they get cold, and a minor illness becomes a serious one, or the medicinal effect of the medicine cannot be achieved. , even after taking it, the disease was not cured, and in the end it was all delayed.

Nowadays, Chen Xi is no longer interested in "making money". Chen Ji is making money every day!

She feels that instead of making money, doing things that are beneficial to the people will make her feel more happy.

Planting medicinal herbs was also the result of her long-term consideration and discussion with Lin Changqing.

When planting medicinal herbs first, she can selectively plant them, such as medicines for bruises, hemostatics, and medicines for treating common ailments that soldiers in the army need in large quantities.

With these medicines, the soldiers have more hope of survival on the battlefield. The Qinglang Camp's annual payment for purchasing medicinal herbs accounts for a quarter of the military expenditure. This shows how precious the medicinal materials are!

The cycle of planting herbal medicine is much longer than that of fruit trees, and the profits are slow to come in. That's why Chen Xi explained the situation clearly to the ladies first to avoid making it difficult for them.

"This is my tentative plan. You can discuss it when you go back. Whether it's you or others, anyone who has this idea can note it down."

After hearing Chen Xi's words, the ladies felt moved in their hearts.

This time, the head of Huaishan County mentioned "other people", which seemed to be a bit loose in the selection of candidates.

Now that Mrs. Zhizhou Tan and the Tan family are completely finished, some of the ladies who followed Tan and the Tan family have regretted it for a long time. During this period, they have been working hard in every possible way, just to make the county boss forgive them and stop caring about them. For the mistakes they made before, they also asked them to follow behind and share some broth.

Now Huaishan County Lord finally relaxed. Although they saw that what Huaishan County Lord did this time was not as profitable as the previous fruit trees, it was still a letter of nomination. When the ladies left, they felt quite happy. I’m happy, because as long as things are done, the gifts I received from the ladies before will be in my hands!

At dinner time, Lin Changqing came back. As soon as he came back, he held his daughter in his hands and teased her. He carefully peeked at Chen Xi's face. When he saw that she was not so angry, he dared to get closer.

As a result, when he came closer, Chen Xi immediately stretched out his hand, pinched someone's waist and twisted it hard.

Lin Changqing grimaced in pain, but did not dare to make any big moves to avoid scaring his daughter.

But his expression was a little weird. Xiao Yaoyao thought it was her father deliberately teasing her, and her little mouth opened wide.

"They say my daughter is a little cotton-padded jacket. Why is it leaking when I look at this little cotton-padded jacket?"

"Humph!"

Chen Xi sat down and started to eat. After Lin Changqing gave his daughter to his mother and sat down, she told him what happened today.

"Growing medicinal herbs, even the fastest harvest takes two years, let alone the more precious medicinal materials. Moreover, growing medicinal materials requires a large number of people to take care of it. When can the soldiers and their families who have been injured and retired from the army come over at the earliest? "

"May be the fastest."

Chen Xi nodded: "Okay, let's let some masters from the Agricultural Research Institute give you a brief lesson first. There is also another question, that is, if we leave in the future, have you thought about how to arrange the things here?"

"Don't worry, even if we leave, we can't lose such a large family property."

That's natural. If they leave, others will be advantaged here. Why should she put in so much effort?

But she wasn't too worried, because according to Lin Changqing, they would stay here for at least three to five years!

……

Since having little Yaoyao, Chen Xi only feels that time flies so fast.

When she came to her senses from her busy schedule, she was shocked to realize that her birthday was coming.

"It's your twentieth birthday, you must make it a big one!"

Chen Xi had already forgotten his birthday, but Lin Changqing took the initiative to mention it.

"No need, I don't have anything to say about twenty and a crown."

Nowadays, women can only do great things if they have hair extensions, but there is no such saying in the village, so it goes by like that.

However, Lin Changqing didn't listen at all and directly ordered people to hold Chen Xi's birthday banquet at Chenji Restaurant. At this time, almost all the wealthy families in Yunzhou City were invited.

Mr. Lin personally invited him, who dare not refuse the invitation?

Chen Xi was shocked when he saw the guest list.

"Why are you even invited by the Chief of Taiping County?"

The Princess of Taiping County is not a commoner like Chen Xi. The Princess of Taiping County is the eldest daughter of Prince Ping, a noble daughter of the royal family.

The fiefdom of Taiping County Lord is in Liuzhou, which is adjacent to Yunzhou. However, even though Chen Xi knew the name of Taiping County Lord, he had never interacted with her, so he couldn't figure out why she was on the guest list.

Lin Changqing took a look at the post and said, "There is a story between County Master Taiping and the eldest prince of the Wahan tribe. Since the death of County Master Taiping's husband, the two have been secretly communicating with each other. Not long ago, I used Liuzhou to secretly sneak into the territory of the Huns and meet Wahan. We have made friends with the eldest prince of the Han tribe, and the eldest prince advocates peaceful coexistence. Maybe the eldest prince told the Lord of Taiping County about this matter, and the Lord of Taiping County took the initiative to contact us. "

So that's it. Chen Xi nodded, "Then we can communicate with the Taiping County Lord. If we can make the people of both sides live a stable and good life without going to war, that would be a great merit!"

Lin Changqing nodded: "I hope so!"
