Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

In early October, the weather had cooled down.

The footsteps of winter have come to the capital.

At this time in previous years, many businesses were already preparing to leave the capital. I was afraid that later in the day, the river would freeze and the road would be difficult to travel, which would delay returning home for the Chinese New Year.

But this year, merchants appear to be unhurried.

There are more goods, which are being transported to the capital continuously.

Beijing is bustling like never before.

Unexpectedly, this season, you can still eat the fruits of the south, which is really surprising.

Have you heard that the cement road from Beijing to Luozhou is about to be repaired.

I've heard it for a long time. It seems that it is only a few dozen miles away, and the two ends can be closed.

Recently, the butcher shop of the Four Seas Trading Company has added a lot of new varieties. It seems that they are all shipped from the south, and the price is not expensive.

Why is it not expensive. An orange, such a big one, costs two cents. Two cents can buy a few eggs.

I tasted a fresh one yesterday, and the oranges are really sweet. I heard that they are different from ours.

And dried sweet potatoes.

I've only heard of people growing sweet potatoes in the south before, but I didn't expect that thing to be really hungry.

I heard that sweet potatoes can also be grown in the north.

Really? You can't talk nonsense about this.

What nonsense. My sister-in-law's brother-in-law's cousin and brother-in-law's cousin works in Zhuangzi. I heard that many Zhuangzi have planted sweet potatoes this year, and an acre can have over a thousand catties.

Really? God, the yield per mu of thousands of catties, doesn't it mean that you don't have to worry about starvation when you don't pick up?

It's not enough to just grow sweet potatoes. The annual taxes and corvée cannot be deducted from sweet potatoes. You have to grow wheat and rice.

That's true.

In addition to the high yield per mu, can sweet potatoes be made into dried sweet potatoes, is there anything else?

Why not, it's great for feeding pigs. It can also be ground into flour to make sweet potato vermicelli. I heard that it can also make wine.

Can sweet potatoes really make wine?

The owner of the restaurant even joined a few porters in the conversation.

I've always heard people say that sweet potatoes have a high yield per mu. They can be boiled, steamed, or roasted. If you're hungry, you have a lot of farts. Feeding pigs is also excellent. Pigs eat sweet potatoes. The meat grows fast. They say they can make wine, but I haven't seen it before.

The owner of the teahouse said: If I can really make wine, I will also plant ten acres and twenty acres.

I don't know if it can really make wine.

What kind of sweet potato fans did you just say?

You go to the butcher shop in the Dahuashu market. There are some good things there. It's not expensive. I'll buy half a catty tomorrow and try something fresh.

The porters drank large bowls of tea, rested for half an hour, and went back to work.

The owner of the restaurant paid attention to sweet potatoes, gritted his teeth, and still spent money on dried sweet potatoes, sweet potato vermicelli, and came back with dozens of pounds of sweet potatoes, ready to learn to cook, steam, and bake.

This teahouse is the lowest-end teahouse on the roadside, a grass hut, which does not block the wind, but only blocks the rain and snow.

The owner of the teahouse has been operating for many years, and he earns hard-earned money.

After finally saving money, I bought more than ten acres of sloping land and a few acres of irrigated land, which is considered a small rich.

The owner of the restaurant has made a plan to buy more land while he is still in good health. When you are old, go to the countryside to retire. Relying on dozens of acres of land, the family can live.

If the per mu yield of sweet potatoes is so high and so good, the owner of the restaurant thinks that the plan to buy dozens of acres of land may be realized ahead of schedule.

In the next few days, the restaurant owner's family ate sweet potatoes in different ways.

Not to mention, the taste is really good, sweet and glutinous. The best roasted, fragrant.

Sure enough, as those porters said, sweet potatoes are very hungry, that is, they have a lot of farts, which is indecent.

After eating sweet potatoes, the owner of the teahouse looks forward to the day when sweet potatoes can be brewed.

Must be able to make wine.

As long as he can make wine, he will plant sweet potatoes on his hillside.

As for where the seeds came from, the owner of the restaurant has not thought so far.

Anyway, when it comes to spring ploughing, you can always think of a way to get the seeds.

...

Balipu, three hundred miles away from the capital, is located on the official road from the capital to Luozhou.

Since the engineering team who came to repair the road last year, this small place in the Col. has become lively.

Those who build roads, burn cement, send supplies to and fro...

When the winter was the coldest, the engineering team did not rest and was still burning bricks. Said to build a house.

The local people also do not understand the relationship between building roads and building houses.

They only know that after the engineering team came, life at home improved.

Men go to work on the construction site, and they have two meals a day, as well as broth and wages.

The woman helped to cook the meal, and she also got paid for food.

Not finding a living woman, he took up the work of mending.

The engineering team is full of big men, earning more money, and willing to pay someone to do laundry.

The people near the construction site will benefit.

In addition to these, the engineering team had to buy livestock and poultry that could not be sold at a reasonable price before. It also set off a small wave of raising poultry.

The wood, stone, and worthless lime that could not be transported were sold by the engineering team for money.

The life of the ordinary people in Balipu seems to be getting better, but this section of the cement road has also been repaired.

When the engineering team left, the local people were full of regret and loss. The good days left with the departure of the engineering team.

In the days to come, I am afraid that I will return to the poor and old-fashioned life of the past, where I cannot eat a full meal all year round.

Unexpectedly, after the engineering team left, there were two more magnificent houses beside the cement road.

The surrounding land, mountains and forests, were also bought.

Soon, a sign was hung on the house, and there were two rows of high wooden fences on the cement road at the entrance.

Tong Sheng, the only one in the nearby village who had read a book, pointed to the two signs hanging on the door, and said, Toll booth, rest stop.

What is this stuff?

do not know?

Is it understandable whether the rest stop is a post station. What is a toll booth? It's possible that we will have to pay for it if we pass this way in the future.

As soon as they heard the money, the villagers fled, for fear that a few vicious people would run out of the grand mansion and ask them for money.

The only child, standing awkwardly in the wind. I wanted to run away with the villagers, but I felt disrespectful. Staying here, he was afraid again, and he was about to pee his pants.

Hey!

Inside the grand mansion, there was indeed a person. A young man with a gentle appearance and shrewd eyes.

Hey, aren't you running? the young man asked Lao Tongsheng.

Lao Tongsheng is 30 this year, surnamed Wang, and the farthest place he has been is the county seat dozens of miles away.

He licked his lips and said nervously, Let's go, let's go now.

Don't be busy. The young man grinned, I heard you speak just now, are you literate?

Wang Laotongsheng nodded, I have read books.

The young man looked at Lao Tongsheng's clothes and his pale face. He was obviously a pauper, and he was a little bit inexplicably aloof.

We're recruiting literate people here, are you here? We'll pay for food and wages.

Wang Laotongsheng first said ah.

The young man smiled and said, Ah what, do you want to eat meat? A salary or two a month, do you want it? If you do well, there will be a reward at the end of the year, and you can buy good things from the owner at an internal price. Are you really upset?

What are you doing here? Wang Laotongsheng was moved, but he was still a little hesitant.

As the young man had guessed, he was somehow aloof. As the only literate person in the village, it is not without reason that he can live so poor.

The young man smiled and said, You can read, and of course you do copy work. Don't you know how to read?

See people, see people. Can I think about it?

Why are you so dawdling, our boss went to the county town to recruit people today. If you don't agree now, you won't have a chance until tomorrow. People in the county town are rare for us here.

Wang Laotongsheng was in a hurry, Aren't you going to recruit people tomorrow?

It's full of people, so of course we won't be recruiting. You know, the people who come from the county town are all skilled, and they can use it when they come. Just you, you have to take half a month's training class before you can start your job.

What kind of training class, what kind of job, Wang Laotongsheng half understands. But he understood what it meant.

If he doesn't agree now, the errand will slip through his fingers.

There was meat to eat and slid, Wang Laotong swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

The salary of one or two a month is slippery, and Wang Laotongsheng's heart skips a beat. Even more excited than the first sleeping lady.

He looked at the two imposing houses in front of him. The one with the toll station was a two-story building, and the one with the rest station was a very deep house. It's as if the courtyard is deep, and I don't know what's inside.

The young man just came out of the rest station.

Wang Laotongsheng judged with his not-so-smart head that if he missed the opportunity in front of him, he would never find a better job than this.

He breathed a sigh of relief, it was cold early in the mountain. The chill came a month or two earlier than outside.

The young man didn't urge him, he was holding a large ceramic bowl and ate.

Wang Laotongsheng, who hadn't smelled meat for months, was so greedy for the white fat meat, his eyes were straight, and saliva was secreting in his mouth.

The young man asked him, Want to eat?

Wang Laotong nodded subconsciously.

The young man grinned, You have signed an employment agreement now, and you can eat this meal too.

Can you eat it now? As much as you?

That's it. We're here as errands, from the stationmaster to the handyman, we're all in charge.

Wang Laotongsheng didn't understand what a webmaster was. After all, he understood.

I'm going to work, I'm going to work now. I'm sure I can eat.

Yes! Guaranteed to kill you.

Wang Laotongsheng felt his stomach so hungry that only ribs were left, and he wanted to eat even in his dreams.

hey-hey……

In a daze, he followed the young man into the rest station, signed an agreement, and then ate the white fat.

Wang Laotongsheng cried while eating.

The stationmaster chatted with the young man, Bring another fool.

The fool who can read. The young man laughed.
