Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

(The reminder has reached the standard and two more chapters have been added! Until now, it has not reached 100. The reminder has asked me to add three more chapters. Can you do it, little dog?)

The next day Yuchi Baoqi wanted to send a telegram to Li Tai, but Li Tai's telegram came first.

"Brother-in-law, sister, the Anxi Protectorate will enter the harvesting period in about ten days. It should be no problem for us to leave now."

Yuchi Baoqi handed the telegram to Li Lizhi: "Okay, get your luggage ready. I'm going to send a telegram to Rencuo and ask him to prepare some necessary supplies for me. We are going to the Anxi Protectorate."

After Li Lizhi read the telegram, she quickly went to pack her and Yuchi Baoqi's changes of clothes, as well as some necessary things.

Rencuo was really fast and quickly prepared what Yuchi Baoqi needed.

Including but not limited to, two tents, three sleeping bags, two waterproof mats, several cans... almost every detail has been thought of.

Rencuo asked people to help pack the truck for Yuchi Baoqi, and put the frequently needed things in places that are easy to access. Everything was labeled with pins.

After taking care of all the supplies they needed to carry, Yuchi Baoqi and Li Lizhi were ready to leave the Agricultural College to pick up Li Tai.

The weather is very good today, and the temperature is not as cold as the previous few days. Yuchi Baoqi even opened the windows a little to let some air in.

When I arrived at the Agricultural College, I saw Li Tai carrying a lot of things: "Sister, brother-in-law, don't you bring any luggage?"

Yuchi Baoqi looked at what he brought, which was probably more than ten days' worth, and there were many packages.

"You always bring so many things with you every time you go?"

Li Tai nodded: "It takes more than ten days to ride on horseback. With so many days of food and tents to sleep at night, there are three horses every time I go."

Yuchi Baoqi waved his hand: "I brought you the things for the tent. Just bring more food."

Li Tai picked again with the help of Li Lizhi and reduced a large part of the things he needed to carry.

Li Tai got into the car, and his luggage was placed next to the back seat.

Yuchi Baoqi asked Li Tai how to get there, and Li Tai told Yuchi Baoqi that just follow the road. After all, there is a direct road from the Western Regions to the Anxi Protectorate.

Yuchi Baoqi stopped the car and asked Li Lizhi to drive. In just over half a month, Li Lizhi has learned to drive and can drive very smoothly.

"You work during the day, sleep at night, and I will take over your shift at night. We have two days and one night off, so it might have only taken five or six days to get here."

Li Lizhi agreed: "Okay, it just so happens that my hands are itchy and I want to drive."

Datang's first female driver appeared. She sat in the driver's seat and expertly fastened her seat belt, put the car in gear and released the clutch to start.

Yuchi Baoqi and Li Tai chatted with each other, but Li Lizhi drove seriously and didn't talk to them much.

Soon at night, Li Tai and Li Lizhi couldn't stand it any longer, and Yuchi Baoqi came to take over the driving. Due to insufficient lighting at night, Yuchi Baoqi drove extra carefully.

Yuchi Baoqi took over the car at night and drove it until the evening of the next day. He couldn't stand it any longer and stopped the car.

"Find a place to pitch your tent. Let's rest here tonight and start our journey again tomorrow."

Yuchi Baoqi and Li Tai started to set up tents and nail the ground, while Li Lizhi helped light a fire and heat up the canned meat in preparation for a good meal.

Li Lizhi skillfully used the lighter given to her by Yuchi Baoqi to make a fire easily.

Yuchi Baoqi and Li Tai set up the tent. Yuchi Baoqi took apart a compressed biscuit and stuffed it into his mouth, ate it and drank half a glass bottle of water.

I took off my outer clothes, slipped into my sleeping bag, zipped it up and went straight to sleep!

Li Lizhi and Li Tai were in good spirits. They finished eating the hot canned meat, and Li Tai went to another tent to lay out his sleeping bag and get ready to sleep.

Seeing that Yuchi Baoqi was already snoring, Li Lizhi felt a little distressed, so she got into her sleeping bag without disturbing him.

After two days of changing shifts, Yuchi Baoqi and Li Lizhi finally arrived at the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion when they were both exhausted.

Li Tai was warmly received as soon as he got out of the car. As the most powerful farming boss in the Anxi Protectorate, Li Tai was called the God of Agriculture here.

Yuchi Baoqi and Li Lizhi are like dead dogs. Don't talk about anything else. The more serious thing is to find a place to sleep first.

The two of them slept so soundly that they slept since they arrived at the place around nine o'clock in the morning, and didn't get up until the sun was almost setting.

I didn't do anything else when I got up. I just ate some hot food and went back to sleep.

The next morning, Li Tai came to see the two of them to observe the harvest, and found that the two of them had been resurrected with full health and were in good spirits.

"Let's go! Let's see how those farm machinery look like!"

Yuchi Baoqi put some gasoline in the car, and then went to the farm under Li Tai's guidance. Cotton, gray dates, and wolfberry were planted in patches of land as far as the eye could see.

The engineers responsible for operating large agricultural tools who had been preparing at the side for a long time bowed their hands and saluted when they saw Yuchi Baoqi: "Master!"

Seeing that so many people under the Anxi Protectorate were looking forward to it, Yuchi Baoqi waved his hand: "Start harvesting!"

Li Tai explained on the side: "In the past, these cottons were collected and sent to Luoye City for cleaning and processing. After being made into raw materials, Luoye City would eat some of them for the daily needs of the people. Most of them were sent to various prefectures. The government’s military uniform factory.”

"This year is probably different. Cotton planting has increased fivefold this year. From this year onwards, people in the Tang Dynasty will also be able to afford clothes made of cotton."

Yuchi Baoqi whispered: "And my nitrocellulose."

Li Lizhi watched the large farm tools drive through the cotton fields, taking away the cotton buds on the cotton branches and collecting them very quickly.

Li Tai was also relieved to see it: "In the past, each female worker could pick more than 160 kilograms of cotton on average a day, and one person could only pick about one acre in a day. Now this machine is so good, it greatly shortens the picking time."

Yuchi Baoqi shook his head: "I have liberated their labor force, but they may also lose their livelihood."

"Go ahead and build a cotton processing factory urgently. We have used their land and we should find a way out for them."

Li Tai bowed to Yuchi Baoqi and saluted: "Sir, you are very kind."

Li Lizhi was already mingling with the children watching the excitement. After all, Li Lizhi had many kinds of candies in her hands.

"Sister wants to eat dates. I heard that the dates from Anxi Protectorate are particularly delicious."

The little boy, who still had a runny nose and bubbles, said in a waxy voice: "My family has it. My family has planted a lot of gray dates this year. My sister is waiting for me here. I'll go get it!"

After saying that, he ran away quickly, and soon he used his clothes to carry a bag of freshly picked gray dates.

"Sister, try it!"

Li Lizhi didn't care whether it was dirty or not, so she picked one up and wiped it with her sleeve before biting it. The aroma of dates and the rich sweetness hit her forehead in an instant.

"The sunshine here is long and the temperature difference between day and night is huge. Sugar will accumulate in all kinds of fruits and vegetables. Are you tired? Drink some water."

Li Lizhi took the water, not forgetting to give the little boy a handful of various candies to eat, and then raised her neck to drink the water.
