In love with the richest man's wife
Chapter 44 I Like You First
001.
After eating, the two lay on the grass and looked at the starry sky for a while, and they didn't go to the town until it was dark.
Passing by the paddy fields, Bai Kan looked over there from a distance.
Under the night, the three paddy fields glow with water, the water surface is mottled, and there is a sense of tranquility, which is different from the daytime.
It was the first time for Bai Kan to look over there at night, and he couldn't help but slow down when he looked at his feet.
"Do you want to go and have a look?" Dong Qingqing was a little helpless, Bai Kandu was still thinking about his paddy field at this time.
Bai Kan shook his head, "No, I just thought of something suddenly."
Dong Qingqing wanted to ask what was the matter, but Bai Kan didn't say anything.
Back at the inn, the two of them had some food before resting.
Early the next morning, Bai Kan got up early and went to the paddy field in the morning light.
When he arrived at the place, he directly called the steward and asked him to find a hoe and dig up the paddy field used to raise seedlings.
"Dig deeper." Bai Kan said after testing the depth with a branch he picked up from the side.
Seeing this, the people around were a little strange, and didn't understand why Bai Kan asked them to dig a hole so early in the morning.
When the sun came out, the water hole for raising seedlings was dug to the depth Bai Kan wanted.He surveyed and directly took the seeds he had brought before, and raised seedlings again.
Busy until noon, when Bai Kan returned to the town, Dong Qingqing had already heard what he was doing in the morning.
When we met, Dong Qingqing asked directly: "Do you think it's because the water is not deep enough that it doesn't germinate?"
Bai Kan was surprised, and also laughed at the same time. After all, Dong Qingqing's mind was faster than others, and he understood him better, "I was thinking last night, what is the difference between the field where the seedlings are raised and the river?"
Then he thought of two points, one is that the water in the river is flowing water, and the other is that the river is relatively deep.
When Bai Kan said this, Dong Qingqing obviously wanted to understand immediately, "How sure are you?"
Bai Kan thought for a while, then shook his head, "It's hard to say."
If he doesn't give it a try, he really can't say how sure he is of success.But if you don't try, there is really no hope at all.
After understanding what Bai Kan was doing, the master masters also looked forward to it.
It's just that Bai Kan dug the puddle very deep, and the water was a bit muddy, so it was almost impossible to see what was going on inside. They couldn't observe it every day, so they could only wait patiently.
After waiting patiently for seven days, Bai Kan and several other masters gave the order to send people to investigate the situation underwater.
Now the puddle is so deep that people can go down to their necks, and some people took off their clothes and went in.
Once in the water, the expression on his face became a little strange.
"How?" Bai Kan looked forward to it.
"There seems to be something under my feet."
"What is it?" Bai Kan asked immediately.
Dong Qingqing also took a step forward and stood by the water, because Bai Kan wanted to see the results today, so he deliberately followed.
"It seems to be some kind of aquatic plant?" said the person who entered the water.
Listening to his words, the faces of the people next to him showed excited smiles.
There are only medicinal herbs planted here, there can be no others, since you can feel it, there must be a lot.
The person in the water stood firm, took a deep breath, and went straight into the water, squatting down and touching it with his hands.
Seeing the water shaking, everyone on the shore held their breath.
Bai Kan stared straight at the water surface with both eyes, waiting for the result.
After a few breaths, the surface of the water shook again, and a human head popped out.The person in the water wiped his face and quickly lifted up the thing he caught.
What the man lifted was a lump of mud, on which there were several crooked water plants.
Those aquatic plants are different from the grass on the shore, the color is lighter, more yellow-green, but they are also full of vitality, which makes people like it.
They are skewed because the mud was picked up by people, and they grow quite well, with fat branches and leaves.
"It's done, I've touched a lot of them under the ground, and they seem to have sprouted!" The person in the water said excitedly.
Hearing the good news, everyone who was waiting on the shore with bated breath laughed and breathed a sigh of relief. Because they couldn't find the reason, they already wanted to give up.
"Let someone come over later, drain all the water in the paddy field, and dig the paddy field deeper." Bai Kan was happy and did not forget to order.
"okay!"
Presumably, this aquatic plant should be extremely shade-loving, and doesn't like places too close to the shore, because such places are too sunny.
For the convenience of observation, Bai Kan dug the paddy field for seedlings so shallow that the water almost covered his ankles. This is almost like exposing the seeds to the sun. How could they germinate?
Fortunately, he discovered it early, otherwise even if all the seeds were thrown into the water, it would be just a waste.
After confirming that there is no problem in raising seedlings, and knowing that this herb likes places with deep water, the Bai family members acted again, drained all the water stored in the three paddy fields, and started digging holes again with a hoe.
After another ten days of busy work, the three paddy fields were finally dug to the depth Bai Kan wanted.
When the paddy field was ready, Bai Kan immediately asked people to bring up the seedlings in the small paddy field for seedling cultivation, and began to transplant them.
Because the whole process of planting is under water, the efficiency is not as good as that on land, so the speed is naturally slower. By the time all the seedlings are transplanted, it is already mid-September.
By then, the weather had already started to turn cold.
In the cold evening, Bai Kan quickened his pace and walked towards the small courtyard. He just entered the door when he saw a strange figure.
Bai Kan paused for a moment, realized who the other party was, and then moved on, "How did you come here?"
The person who suddenly appeared was none other than Lu Qingye who hadn't seen him for a long time.
When we met again, Lu Qingye changed a lot, this change was even bigger than the last time the Lu family had an accident.
Today, Lu Qingye's whole body is black and thin, and the clothes on his body have been replaced with more capable and convenient clothes, and the fan that he had been holding in his hand before is gone.
If Lu Qingye used to be more like a son of a rich family, now he finally has the feeling of a down-to-earth person who does things, and no longer gives people the feeling of being untrustworthy and superficial.
Looking at Lu Qingye who had undergone obvious changes, Bai Kan's black and white pupils showed a little smile. It is a good thing that Lu Qingye has such a change.
"I'll give you the account book, Young Master Bai!" Lu Qingye deliberately bit the word 'Master Bai' very hard.
Bai Kan rolled his eyes at him, took the account book that Lu Qingye handed over, walked to the side and sat down to check, there was no disagreement.
Bai Kan ignored people, Lu Qingye looked around again, took a look, and found a place to sit in the small courtyard that Bai Kan bought now.
"Why don't you even have someone to pour tea?" Lu Qingye took the teapot on the table, wanted to pour a glass of water, but found that the teapot was also empty.
"The kitchen is on the right. There should be hot water over there. Take the kettle and add some water." Bai Kan pointed in the direction of the kitchen without raising his head.
Lu Qingye raised his eyebrows silently, and obediently took the water bottle over.
After entering the kitchen and seeing servants busy in the kitchen, he realized that there were not many servants here.Except for those who cook, there are only two people who clean up in this yard.
This is far worse than that of the Bai family and the Dong family. The Bai family and the Dong family's guards in the Bai family town add up to more than a hundred guards.
When he returned to the living room with the kettle full of hot water, Lu Qingye wanted to laugh at Bai Kan's miserable life, but he thought about the small yard, so he couldn't say anything.
This house was originally a small farmyard, and there were only a few rooms in the front and back of the house. If there were a few more servants to serve, there would be no place to live.
Back in the house, Lu Qingye poured two cups of tea and handed one cup to Bai Kan, "Where is Dong Qingqing, why didn't you see it?"
In Lu Qingye's memory, Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing are now as good as each other, and they are always in pairs wherever they go.
"He's still at the edge of the field." Bai Kan said.
At this moment, Bai Kan had almost finished reading the ledger brought by Lu Qingye.
I don't have many accounts at all, just some big expenses of the Bai family last month, such as wages and the like.
After closing the ledger, Bai Kan looked at Lu Qingye, "How do you feel?"
Lu Qingye drank tea, disliked the untasteful tea, and said with a smile: "What else can I do?"
He is like this, what more can he ask for?
Bai Kan ignored his emotion, and said, "I'm asking you how things are going?" After thinking about it, he asked again, "Are you used to staying in the Bai family?"
If he really didn't want to deal with Lu Qingye's life and death, he wouldn't have taken him out in the first place.
Lu Qingye smacked his mouth, not knowing whether it was scalded by the water or what.
He put down his cup, and after a moment of silence, he said: "It's okay, although I don't live as comfortably as my little prince, but it's a fulfilling day."
How can I not be fulfilled, I am so busy all day long, and when I get home at night, I can't wait to lie on the bed and sleep to death.
In such a situation, he has no time to think about other things at all. When he has time to think about it, he only remembers that he has been busy.
Then, before he had time to feel sad, it was dawn again, and Bai Linyuan was already staring at him quietly again.
As soon as Lu Qingye thought of Bai Linyuan, his imposing manner suddenly became a little weaker, "You said how about I come to help you, anyway, I think you need people here."
"Go and tell my dad, if he agrees, I have no objection." Bai Kan said.
Lu Qingye's face immediately darkened. He didn't know that Bai Kan was the real master of the Bai family before, but now he knows it very clearly.
Bai Kan's words sounded like nothing to outsiders, neither objecting nor agreeing, but to him it was clearly an excuse.
Lu Qingye grunted with a stinky face, showing some dissatisfaction, but didn't say anything.
At the beginning, he followed Bai Linyuan around, and he still had some complaints, but now he more or less understands that he still has something to learn.
"By the way, I heard that your medicine field is doing pretty well?" Lu Qingye asked again.
"The first batch of goods should be released in two months." Bai Kan laughed, his brows and eyes curved, as if he had done something extraordinary and wanted to be praised.
"Have you found the buyer?" Lu Qingye didn't praise him.
"Isn't there something ready-made?" Bai Kan glanced at Lu Qingye, disgusted and stupid.
"You mean Dong Qingqing?" Lu Qingye immediately responded.
Dong Qingqing was originally the richest man in Zhenjiang, but now that Nanjiang's family has been injured and can't get up for a while, Dong's family has become the leader of this industry, the kind of family that dominates.
Under such circumstances, the Dong family could certainly eat the batch of herbs.
"He has already agreed?" Lu Qingye sighed.
"I asked for a good price." Bai Kan smiled.
Lu Qingye took a sip of his tea unbearably, he had really had enough of these two people.
"Are you still negotiating with him?" Lu Qingye felt that the tastes of these two people were really different from others. Could this be a particularly interesting thing?
"What are you talking about?! My brother will settle accounts clearly." Bai Kan said.
It's just that although he pretended to be serious, the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.
002.
His original plan was to let the Bai family follow the same path as the Dong family, planting medicinal materials by themselves, but now he has changed his mind.
He will look at the land of the Bai family. The Dong family is in the medicine field in Zhenjiang, and the people of the Bai family have already passed.
The life of running around is not suitable for him, so he decided to pay more attention to growing medicinal materials.As for Dong Qingqing, he is responsible for running around and selling medicinal materials.
The two of them didn't say these words in person, but Dong Qingqing obviously also meant it, so he had already made a list of what to plant in the medicine field on the Zhenjiang side, so that he could get acquainted with it as soon as possible.
Lu Qingye didn't know what Bai Kan was thinking, just looking at the smile on Bai Kan's face, he couldn't bear to shiver.
Just the two of them were chatting, and now there was another figure at the door, and Dong Qingqing came back.
Because he has to stay here for a long time and often go to the fields, Dong Qingqing specially asked someone to prepare some ordinary clothes for him and Bai Kan. Today he is wearing ordinary sackcloth.
The dark gray clothes fit him well, making him a little less stern and more plain and soft.
Seeing him, Lu Qingye's eyes showed surprise, "Are you going to go to the ground in person?"
While talking, Lu Qingye couldn't help but looked at Bai Kan in surprise, Dong Qingqing was originally the richest man, but Bai Kan was trained/taught like this?
"At the beginning, isn't it like this?" Bai Kan felt insulted. It was not an easy task to start researching and growing a kind of medicinal material, and it is not surprising that there are many things.
"Why is he here?" Dong Qingqing entered the door.
"My father asked him to come over and deliver the account book to me." Bai Kan handed the Bai family's account book to Dong Qingqing and asked him to look at it too.
The Bai family is getting bigger and bigger now, and there are more and more workers under the name of the Bai family, which directly leads to more and more accounts of the Bai family, and the monthly expenditure is more than that of the Dong family.
"Forget it, I'm leaving, lest people look at me here." Lu Qingye got up after speaking, patted his clothes and walked out the door.
Before reaching the door, he stopped again and turned around, "Are you really going to let me go without staying?"
"When I got back, I told my dad that I've read the account book, it's okay, let him do it." Bai Kan waved off the guests with a smile.
Dong Qingqing was busy looking at the account book at the moment and ignored him.
Hearing this, Lu Qingye's face was blue and purple for a while, and after a while, he walked back with a dark face and went back to the place where he just sat down.
"Why are you back again? Aren't you going to leave?" Bai Kan's eyes were full of ridicule.
Lu Qingye was so angry, but he couldn't fight Baikan, so he simply kept silent and expressed his determination with actions.
After that, he stayed here for two or three days, Bai Kan didn't rush him, and let him go everywhere every day.
Bai Kan didn't urge him, and Dong Qingqing ignored him, but Lu Qingye became restless and anxious, and rode back by himself on the fourth day.
Bai Linyuan was still waiting for him to send the message back, so there was no delay.
Riding a horse and leaving the town with Bai Kan's teasing smile, Lu Qingye comforted himself all the way back. He was just too responsible, and definitely not afraid of Bai Linyuan!
Back in Baijia Town, Lu Qingye went to the Baijia, told Bai Linyuan the ledger and news brought back, and then stood nervously aside.
"I see." Bai Linyuan said.
After speaking, he put away the ledger and finished his work. When Bai Linyuan turned his head, Lu Qingye was still standing there.
"Is there anything else?" Bai Linyuan asked.
"No..." Lu Qingye looked at Bai Linyuan with complicated eyes. He thought that Bai Linyuan would be angry if he came back so many days late, but why didn't Bai Linyuan seem to respond?
"It's okay, then go back first, what are you doing standing here?" Bai Linyuan said.
"Oh, good..." Lu Qingye went out.
He walked for a while with a stiff neck, and he didn't hear Bai Linyuan's voice until he left the gate of Bai's house. He looked back again, is Bai Linyuan really not angry?
When Lu Qingye came back, he was ready to be continued, but nothing seemed to happen to Bai Linyuan.
Bai Linyuan didn't express it at all, but Lu Qingye became more and more uncomfortable, always feeling uncomfortable all over his body.
Lu Qingye was uncomfortable, but Bai Linyuan was a little funny watching him leave. Now Lu Qingye completely regarded him as a scourge.
September passed, October came, and when winter came, the medicinal materials on the side of the paddy fields were harvested.
In the early morning, Bai Kan took the cloak handed over by Dong Qingqing and put it on, and looked at Dong Qingqing again, a little envious.
Dong Qingqing is in good health, and she only wears a thicker coat this season than before.Unlike him, he now has three inner and outer layers, dressed as if he is going to winter.
"In the past?" Dong Qingqing asked.
"The others have already passed by. Finish your work early and call it a day. The temperature is low at night." Bai Kan took the lead and walked towards the door.
This side is close to the water, and it is easy to get foggy in the morning.
When Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing walked towards the paddy field, the surrounding visibility was not high, and there was a vast expanse of whiteness in the distance.
When they arrived at the place, the two saw a group of people already waiting by the paddy field.
Because it is a paddy field and the water is deep, all the people who work here are good at water, and many of them used to be fishermen.
"It's almost time to start!" Someone said.
The few people who had been prepared for a long time began to take off their clothes. The weather was already a bit cold. As soon as those people took off their clothes, they immediately got goose bumps all over their bodies, and Bai Kan was also standing on end with chills.
Those people moved their bodies, then entered the water along the same side, and after adapting to the water temperature, they dived into the water and began to explore.
Someone from the shore came over with bamboo baskets, waiting for them to collect the medicinal herbs, and then pack them and send them to the newly built warehouse of the Bai family next to the town for processing.
This aquatic plant has a heavy moisture content and is not so easy to dry. It will take nearly a month to dry before it can be sent to Dong's house.
As for the future, the Dong family has already contacted the next family, the deposit has been collected, and as soon as the things are ready, they will be sent over.
The sound of water sounded, and the people who had dived into the water came out. Those people let go of the herbs they picked, and the herbs immediately floated up.
Someone nearby took a tool to hook it, and the person in the water immediately dived down again. The weather is too cold to stay in the water for too long.
Bai Kan stood by, seeing the medicinal materials being hooked ashore, he walked over to have a look.
The growth of the medicinal materials is not bad, the torso that can be used for medicine is round and long, and some of them are almost white as thick as fingers.
Dong Qingqing knew what Bai Kan was looking at, so he also walked over to have a look, "It's not bad, the leaves should be nearly two hundred catties."
Bai Kan's eyes lit up, which was more than he expected.
One paddy field is two hundred catties, and three yuan is nearly six hundred catties. Even if the error is larger and only five hundred catties are left, that is still a lot.
So far, not many people have successfully grown this kind of medicinal material. Most of them are wild. People near the waterside go to the water to collect and sell them by themselves. The quantity is small and the quality is uneven.
The quality of his batch of medicinal materials is good, the quantity is large, the price is also negotiable, and the profit is quite considerable.
This medicinal material can be planted several times a year, during which time it is mixed with other medicinal materials. The three paddy fields add up, and the profit it brings to him in one year is much higher than he expected.
Bai Kan's eyes were full of excitement, and he instinctively turned his head to look at Dong Qingqing next to him.
Dong Qingqing reached out and touched his head. There was a faint smile on his face, as if he was looking at a puppy who only wanted to be praised.
Bai Kan slapped his hand away, who wants him to pat his head?
Bai Kan scratched at his own hair, it was messed up.
"After tidying up next year, the harvest should be even better." Dong Qingqing didn't point it out, but pulled the person over with a smile, and put her hand in it.
Holding Bai Kan's hand in his, Dong Qingqing tightened it.
Bai Kan's body is cold, and he tends to get cold in winter, but his hands are already a little cold now.
Bai Kan nodded, agreeing.This is the first time I don't have much experience, so it will be worse after all, and it will definitely increase the income when I become proficient.
"What are you going to do with the other places around here? Do you want to rent them out as you prepared before?" Dong Qingqing asked.
After the medicinal material was successfully planted, Bai Kan has been thinking about it.Now that there is a method of planting, expanding paddy fields has become one of the good ways to directly increase income.
"We'll have a look again during the Chinese New Year." Bai was in no hurry, "There is a piece of land around here, the only place where the terrain is relatively low, so it's easier to bring water in, other places are too troublesome."
The water in the paddy field is not always changed, it must be changed every once in a while, so as not to become stagnant water and spoil the medicinal materials under the water.
Dong Qingqing listened quietly, and after Bai Kan finished speaking, he said again: "Are you going to continue planting the medicine field on the Zhenjiang side, or should you retreat first?"
With this piece of land owned by the Bai family, the few medicine fields on the other side of Zhenjiang seem a bit insignificant, and Dong Qingqing's mind is not there now.
"Keep it for now, maybe it can be used, anyway, it's just an occasional visit there." Bai Kan said.
The two discussed, and there were already many more medicinal materials by the water.The waiting people took their poles and went to the town with the medicinal materials.
After the sun warmed up, Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing left the paddy fields and walked towards the town side by side.
According to Bai Kan's original plan, it would take three years for the Bai family to slowly and secretly learn to transform, and then after ending the cooperation with Dong Qingqing, they began to try their own seeds.
Dong Qingqing's help became the main factor for the complete transformation of the Bai family, which also made the transformation of the Bai family much faster than expected. After a year, the Bai family now has a complete system, and the experience in planting has already been counted. rich on.
On the way back, Bai Kan relaxed as he thought about the past year.
He took the initiative to approach Dong Qingqing, stretched out his hand to hold Dong Qingqing's hand, and joined hands with Zi.
"Let's go back to Baijia Town after the medicinal materials here are collected!" Bai Kan said.
"En." Dong Qingqing replied softly, and it was almost Chinese New Year.
After Bai Kan came here, he has been staring at the paddy fields here, and it has been half a year, and it is time to go back to Baijia Town.
"It's time to go to Bai's house for the New Year." Bai Kan said.
Dong Qingqing looked over, "OK."
"From now on, we will celebrate the New Year at Bai's house." Bai Kan said again.
The corners of Dong Qingqing's mouth curled up, and he laughed, but didn't speak.
"My father agreed." Bai Kan tightly grasped Dong Qingqing's hand a little nervously.
Bai Linyuan has already acquiesced in their relationship, and even the members of the Bai family and the Dong family already know about it.
When this story first spread, it did cause a lot of commotion, but the people in Baijia Town watched Bai Kan grow up, and apart from being a little surprised at the beginning, they quickly accepted it later.
Now, every time they see Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing walking together, they are no strangers to it.
On the contrary, people outside were quite surprised by this incident, which caused quite a commotion.
The lunatic from Nanjiang Chengjia even seized this opportunity, showed his face, and said something to ridicule Dong Qingqing, but it was a pity that Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing ignored him at all.
Nanjiang Chengjia suffered a lot from the previous incident, and was busy recovering his energy for a long time, so Bai Kan hadn't seen the young master of the family for a long time.
On this point, Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing had the same opinion, that is, they felt a little regretful.
The head of the family is quite likable, in a sense.
003.
It took nearly a month for the three paddy fields to collect all the medicinal materials.
After harvesting the medicinal herbs, those people took the medicinal herbs for processing, and the masters were also busy with a new wave of planting.
Seeing that everything went well, Bai Kan collected his things and took Dong Qingqing back to Baijia Town.
The town here is not far from Baijia Town, and it can be reached on the same day. They set off in the morning and arrived there just after noon.
When they arrived in the town, Bai Linyuan and Dong Qingqing went home separately.
Bai Kan originally planned to take Dong Qingqing to Bai's house, but Dong Qingqing said that he would go to Dong's house first, and he hadn't come back for a long time.
When he arrived at Bai's house, before Bai Kan entered, he saw Bai Linyuan and Mr. Qing walking over.
"Daddy, Mr. Qing, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much." Bai Kan immediately called out when he saw someone's mouth, his mouth was so sweet.
Bai Linyuan was in a good mood when he was shouted at, and the things he was thinking about, asking Bai Kan for so long and not willing to come back to have a look, were instantly forgotten.
Bai Kan's smile became sweeter, and he grabbed Bai Linyuan's arm, "I was going to come back a few days ago, but something happened over there, otherwise I would have come back to accompany you long ago."
"It's okay, you need to worry more about Yaotian's affairs." Bai Linyuan was coaxed into a burst of laughter.
Mr. Qing walked beside, looked at the two father and son, smiled and shook his head.
"I miss you too, Mr. Qing." Bai Kan did not forget Mr. Qing.
Although he was a little afraid of Mr. Qing, it didn't stop him from liking Mr. Qing, the way he liked his elders.
"Where's Dong Qingqing?" Mr. Qing asked.
Bai Kan's tricks can also deceive Bai Linyuan.
"I originally asked him to come here, but he said he would go to Dong's house first." Bai Kan was slightly dissatisfied, and Dong Qingqing ran away as soon as he came back here.
"He is the head of the Dong family, no matter what, the Dong family still has to take care of him." Bai Linyuan said before Mr. Xianqing.
After finishing speaking, Bai Linyuan stopped, looked into Bai Kan's eyes quite seriously, and said, "You will be the head of the Bai family from now on, so be careful."
"It's still early!" Bai Kan brought up this topic with a smile, Bai Linyuan is still young, how can he still be a family member for ten years.
Bai Linyuan still wanted to say something, but Bai Kan had already dragged him into the hall, "I'm hungry, is there anything delicious? When I'm over there, what I miss most is the food at home."
"I thought you missed me the most." Bai Lin Yuanhu pretended to be unhappy with a face.
Bai Kan quickly changed his words, trying to coax Bai Linyuan.
After saying the pleasant words to Bai Linyuan, Bai Kan did not forget to say a few words to Mr. Qing next to him until he coaxed them both to be happy.
After talking with Bai Kan, Bai Linyuan immediately asked someone to prepare food, and after he finished giving orders, Dong Qingqing came in with a food box at the door.
Before seeing anyone, Bai Kan smelled the aroma inside the food box, "Milk tofu?"
Now that it's winter, the peddler who sells milk cakes has re-sold milk tofu.
"Well, I bought some while passing by." Dong Qingqing put the food box on the table.
When the servants saw it, they hurried to get the bowls and chopsticks. Dong Qingqing said, "Bring more bowls and chopsticks." He also bought some for Bai Linyuan and Mr. Qing.
Dong Qingqing nodded and greeted Bai Linyuan and Mr. Qing, while Bai Kan had already run to unpack the food box, with his long nose sticking out, he was so hungry.
It was Dong Qingqing who knew him best, knowing that he hadn't eaten milk cakes or milk tofu during this period of time, and missed him very much, so she went to buy it for him even though she had to take a detour, and even lied about it.
Bringing the bowls and chopsticks, Dong Qingqing went up to serve them. After serving them, he added three tablespoons of sugar, and then put the bowls in front of Bai Kan.
Bai Kan couldn't wait to sit beside him with a spoon, and when he saw the bowl in front of him, he immediately leaned over and took a deep breath.
"It smells good."
It's so sweet that it can't be eaten, but the other three people don't have this hobby, and their tastes are relatively normal.
The four of them sat down and chatted briefly about the paddy fields while eating.
After eating, Dong Qingqing briefly talked about this year's harvest in Baijia Town.
The climate in Baijia Town is indeed suitable for growing most medicinal materials, but there are also some that are not suitable, such as the beans before.
That bean made the Dong family lose a fortune, not a big one, but a memory.
He has already arranged that this year the medicinal materials will be planted in the field on the other side of Zhenjiang, not here.
"Then you plan to stay here forever?" Bai Linyuan asked.
"Well, I've moved most of our family over."
"Where's the herbal medicine shop?" Bai Linyuan asked again. The Dong family not only has medicine fields, but also many medicinal herb shops.
"It's fine over there, and someone will help to keep an eye on it. I only need to go there once or twice a year. And many of the customers are old customers who have worked with them, so they are easy to talk to. Sometimes they send medicinal materials directly from the medicine field." Dong Qingqing explain.
Bai Linyuan now has a certain understanding of the medicine industry, and he has personally seen Dong's guests take away the medicine directly from the medicine field.
Taking a look at Bai Linyuan's face, Dong Qingqing tentatively said, "Next year, I want to focus on dealing with those guests. As for Yaotian, I will leave it to the Bai family."
Bai Linyuan was stunned, a little surprised, but expected.
He was silent, also thinking.
How could he not understand Dong Qingqing's meaning? He intended to let the Bai family take over the Dong family's planting of medicinal materials, while he mainly turned to exporting medicinal materials.
In this way, the Bai family is getting better and better, and Dong Qingqing is of course not bad. He has more time to expand his business.
But in this way, Dong Qingqing also handed over the foundation of the Dong family to the Bai family.
If the Bai family were to think carefully about small tricks and take all of them for themselves, or if something went wrong, Dong Qingqing would be implicated immediately.
The foundation of the Dong family was damaged, and the damage suffered must be greater than that of the Nanjiang family.
Bai Linyuan thought about it carefully, and only said: "I don't care about your affairs, you can take care of them yourself, and I will only help you when I can help."
It was the first time that Bai Linyuan said this in front of Dong Qingqing, which made Dong Qingqing a little surprised, and then ecstasy filled the air.
Although he knew from Bai Kan's side that Bai Linyuan had agreed with him and Bai Kan, this was the first time Bai Linyuan said it in front of him.
Dong Qingqing suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, he glanced at Bai Kan, and said: "I've thought about this too, given the current situation of the Dong family, it's already very difficult to continue to develop..."
The Dong family also grows medicinal materials and wholesales medicinal materials in large quantities. They also own a certain pharmacy shop. Although they make money from everything, if you really want to say, they don't make a lot of money.
Before meeting Bai Kan, Dong Qingqing was already thinking about whether to continue like this?
Now he has made a decision to focus more on his business, and leave the cultivation of medicinal materials to Bai Kan.
Bai Linyuan listened quietly, nodding from time to time.
He seldom raises opinions, not because he has no opinions, but because the blows in the early years made him fully realize the reality, he is not a material for doing business!
Fortunately, Bai Kan's son is more capable than his father, otherwise Bai Linyuan doesn't know what to do.
Thinking of how the father and son could only live on their laurels pitifully after they lost their land, Bai Linyuan turned pale.
It was rare to open up the conversation, and the few people talked more and more enthusiastically, and when the chat was over, the sky darkened.
At night, in order to welcome Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing back, Bai Linyuan asked the Bai family to make some delicious food.
At the dinner table, Bai Kan was the happiest. He kept stuffing things into his mouth, hating himself for not being able to eat more.
After dinner, Bai Kan grabbed Dong Qingqing and took him to the yard where he lived.
Bai Kan's yard is still the same as before, without any changes, which reminds Dong Qingqing of the yard he lived in when he was a child.
Thinking of it, Dong Qingqing mentioned a few words to Bai Kan, saying that the courtyard where he lived originally had a swing and a flower garden...
Dong Qingqing just mentioned it casually, but Bai Kan took his heart, dragged him to the study, and showed him the portrait of his mother that his father cherished so dearly.
The woman in the portrait is gentle and moving. She is sitting stiffly, but she has a bright smile on her face.That smile was exactly the same as that of Bai Kan.
Bai Kan inherited half of his mother's half of his father's, that smile came from his mother, and he was smart too.
Back in the small courtyard, Bai Kan told Dong Qingqing something about his childhood, and about his mother.
Bai Kan could no longer remember his mother, but his father told him a lot, plus his grandfather's description, and Mr. Qing's occasional mentions, Bai Kan's words were familiar.
His parents were both gentle people, that's why he gave birth to a gentle Bai Kan.
Although Dong Qingqing had never met her, she could sense what kind of person she was from Bai Kan.
The two chatted until their mouths were dry before stopping. They quietly looked at the starry sky in the yard for a while, and Bai Kan led the people back to the room.
The house here is not like in other towns, Dong Qingqing's things are everywhere, but there is no rush, when Dong Qingqing comes to live, you can move slowly.
After washing up, I turned off the lights and lay down on the bed.
Bai Kan moved towards Dong Qingqing, getting closer to him, it was a bit cold when he just lay down under the quilt.
Dong Qingqing turned over and lay on his side facing Bai Kan. He put his arms around Bai Kan, bringing the distance between them closer, warming Bai Kan and himself with his body.
"Have I ever told you that I like you?" Bai Kan put his head next to Dong Qingqing's, and whispered to him while hiding under the quilt.
Dong Qingqing was stunned, why did Bai Kan suddenly mention this?
"Me too." Dong Qing
After eating, the two lay on the grass and looked at the starry sky for a while, and they didn't go to the town until it was dark.
Passing by the paddy fields, Bai Kan looked over there from a distance.
Under the night, the three paddy fields glow with water, the water surface is mottled, and there is a sense of tranquility, which is different from the daytime.
It was the first time for Bai Kan to look over there at night, and he couldn't help but slow down when he looked at his feet.
"Do you want to go and have a look?" Dong Qingqing was a little helpless, Bai Kandu was still thinking about his paddy field at this time.
Bai Kan shook his head, "No, I just thought of something suddenly."
Dong Qingqing wanted to ask what was the matter, but Bai Kan didn't say anything.
Back at the inn, the two of them had some food before resting.
Early the next morning, Bai Kan got up early and went to the paddy field in the morning light.
When he arrived at the place, he directly called the steward and asked him to find a hoe and dig up the paddy field used to raise seedlings.
"Dig deeper." Bai Kan said after testing the depth with a branch he picked up from the side.
Seeing this, the people around were a little strange, and didn't understand why Bai Kan asked them to dig a hole so early in the morning.
When the sun came out, the water hole for raising seedlings was dug to the depth Bai Kan wanted.He surveyed and directly took the seeds he had brought before, and raised seedlings again.
Busy until noon, when Bai Kan returned to the town, Dong Qingqing had already heard what he was doing in the morning.
When we met, Dong Qingqing asked directly: "Do you think it's because the water is not deep enough that it doesn't germinate?"
Bai Kan was surprised, and also laughed at the same time. After all, Dong Qingqing's mind was faster than others, and he understood him better, "I was thinking last night, what is the difference between the field where the seedlings are raised and the river?"
Then he thought of two points, one is that the water in the river is flowing water, and the other is that the river is relatively deep.
When Bai Kan said this, Dong Qingqing obviously wanted to understand immediately, "How sure are you?"
Bai Kan thought for a while, then shook his head, "It's hard to say."
If he doesn't give it a try, he really can't say how sure he is of success.But if you don't try, there is really no hope at all.
After understanding what Bai Kan was doing, the master masters also looked forward to it.
It's just that Bai Kan dug the puddle very deep, and the water was a bit muddy, so it was almost impossible to see what was going on inside. They couldn't observe it every day, so they could only wait patiently.
After waiting patiently for seven days, Bai Kan and several other masters gave the order to send people to investigate the situation underwater.
Now the puddle is so deep that people can go down to their necks, and some people took off their clothes and went in.
Once in the water, the expression on his face became a little strange.
"How?" Bai Kan looked forward to it.
"There seems to be something under my feet."
"What is it?" Bai Kan asked immediately.
Dong Qingqing also took a step forward and stood by the water, because Bai Kan wanted to see the results today, so he deliberately followed.
"It seems to be some kind of aquatic plant?" said the person who entered the water.
Listening to his words, the faces of the people next to him showed excited smiles.
There are only medicinal herbs planted here, there can be no others, since you can feel it, there must be a lot.
The person in the water stood firm, took a deep breath, and went straight into the water, squatting down and touching it with his hands.
Seeing the water shaking, everyone on the shore held their breath.
Bai Kan stared straight at the water surface with both eyes, waiting for the result.
After a few breaths, the surface of the water shook again, and a human head popped out.The person in the water wiped his face and quickly lifted up the thing he caught.
What the man lifted was a lump of mud, on which there were several crooked water plants.
Those aquatic plants are different from the grass on the shore, the color is lighter, more yellow-green, but they are also full of vitality, which makes people like it.
They are skewed because the mud was picked up by people, and they grow quite well, with fat branches and leaves.
"It's done, I've touched a lot of them under the ground, and they seem to have sprouted!" The person in the water said excitedly.
Hearing the good news, everyone who was waiting on the shore with bated breath laughed and breathed a sigh of relief. Because they couldn't find the reason, they already wanted to give up.
"Let someone come over later, drain all the water in the paddy field, and dig the paddy field deeper." Bai Kan was happy and did not forget to order.
"okay!"
Presumably, this aquatic plant should be extremely shade-loving, and doesn't like places too close to the shore, because such places are too sunny.
For the convenience of observation, Bai Kan dug the paddy field for seedlings so shallow that the water almost covered his ankles. This is almost like exposing the seeds to the sun. How could they germinate?
Fortunately, he discovered it early, otherwise even if all the seeds were thrown into the water, it would be just a waste.
After confirming that there is no problem in raising seedlings, and knowing that this herb likes places with deep water, the Bai family members acted again, drained all the water stored in the three paddy fields, and started digging holes again with a hoe.
After another ten days of busy work, the three paddy fields were finally dug to the depth Bai Kan wanted.
When the paddy field was ready, Bai Kan immediately asked people to bring up the seedlings in the small paddy field for seedling cultivation, and began to transplant them.
Because the whole process of planting is under water, the efficiency is not as good as that on land, so the speed is naturally slower. By the time all the seedlings are transplanted, it is already mid-September.
By then, the weather had already started to turn cold.
In the cold evening, Bai Kan quickened his pace and walked towards the small courtyard. He just entered the door when he saw a strange figure.
Bai Kan paused for a moment, realized who the other party was, and then moved on, "How did you come here?"
The person who suddenly appeared was none other than Lu Qingye who hadn't seen him for a long time.
When we met again, Lu Qingye changed a lot, this change was even bigger than the last time the Lu family had an accident.
Today, Lu Qingye's whole body is black and thin, and the clothes on his body have been replaced with more capable and convenient clothes, and the fan that he had been holding in his hand before is gone.
If Lu Qingye used to be more like a son of a rich family, now he finally has the feeling of a down-to-earth person who does things, and no longer gives people the feeling of being untrustworthy and superficial.
Looking at Lu Qingye who had undergone obvious changes, Bai Kan's black and white pupils showed a little smile. It is a good thing that Lu Qingye has such a change.
"I'll give you the account book, Young Master Bai!" Lu Qingye deliberately bit the word 'Master Bai' very hard.
Bai Kan rolled his eyes at him, took the account book that Lu Qingye handed over, walked to the side and sat down to check, there was no disagreement.
Bai Kan ignored people, Lu Qingye looked around again, took a look, and found a place to sit in the small courtyard that Bai Kan bought now.
"Why don't you even have someone to pour tea?" Lu Qingye took the teapot on the table, wanted to pour a glass of water, but found that the teapot was also empty.
"The kitchen is on the right. There should be hot water over there. Take the kettle and add some water." Bai Kan pointed in the direction of the kitchen without raising his head.
Lu Qingye raised his eyebrows silently, and obediently took the water bottle over.
After entering the kitchen and seeing servants busy in the kitchen, he realized that there were not many servants here.Except for those who cook, there are only two people who clean up in this yard.
This is far worse than that of the Bai family and the Dong family. The Bai family and the Dong family's guards in the Bai family town add up to more than a hundred guards.
When he returned to the living room with the kettle full of hot water, Lu Qingye wanted to laugh at Bai Kan's miserable life, but he thought about the small yard, so he couldn't say anything.
This house was originally a small farmyard, and there were only a few rooms in the front and back of the house. If there were a few more servants to serve, there would be no place to live.
Back in the house, Lu Qingye poured two cups of tea and handed one cup to Bai Kan, "Where is Dong Qingqing, why didn't you see it?"
In Lu Qingye's memory, Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing are now as good as each other, and they are always in pairs wherever they go.
"He's still at the edge of the field." Bai Kan said.
At this moment, Bai Kan had almost finished reading the ledger brought by Lu Qingye.
I don't have many accounts at all, just some big expenses of the Bai family last month, such as wages and the like.
After closing the ledger, Bai Kan looked at Lu Qingye, "How do you feel?"
Lu Qingye drank tea, disliked the untasteful tea, and said with a smile: "What else can I do?"
He is like this, what more can he ask for?
Bai Kan ignored his emotion, and said, "I'm asking you how things are going?" After thinking about it, he asked again, "Are you used to staying in the Bai family?"
If he really didn't want to deal with Lu Qingye's life and death, he wouldn't have taken him out in the first place.
Lu Qingye smacked his mouth, not knowing whether it was scalded by the water or what.
He put down his cup, and after a moment of silence, he said: "It's okay, although I don't live as comfortably as my little prince, but it's a fulfilling day."
How can I not be fulfilled, I am so busy all day long, and when I get home at night, I can't wait to lie on the bed and sleep to death.
In such a situation, he has no time to think about other things at all. When he has time to think about it, he only remembers that he has been busy.
Then, before he had time to feel sad, it was dawn again, and Bai Linyuan was already staring at him quietly again.
As soon as Lu Qingye thought of Bai Linyuan, his imposing manner suddenly became a little weaker, "You said how about I come to help you, anyway, I think you need people here."
"Go and tell my dad, if he agrees, I have no objection." Bai Kan said.
Lu Qingye's face immediately darkened. He didn't know that Bai Kan was the real master of the Bai family before, but now he knows it very clearly.
Bai Kan's words sounded like nothing to outsiders, neither objecting nor agreeing, but to him it was clearly an excuse.
Lu Qingye grunted with a stinky face, showing some dissatisfaction, but didn't say anything.
At the beginning, he followed Bai Linyuan around, and he still had some complaints, but now he more or less understands that he still has something to learn.
"By the way, I heard that your medicine field is doing pretty well?" Lu Qingye asked again.
"The first batch of goods should be released in two months." Bai Kan laughed, his brows and eyes curved, as if he had done something extraordinary and wanted to be praised.
"Have you found the buyer?" Lu Qingye didn't praise him.
"Isn't there something ready-made?" Bai Kan glanced at Lu Qingye, disgusted and stupid.
"You mean Dong Qingqing?" Lu Qingye immediately responded.
Dong Qingqing was originally the richest man in Zhenjiang, but now that Nanjiang's family has been injured and can't get up for a while, Dong's family has become the leader of this industry, the kind of family that dominates.
Under such circumstances, the Dong family could certainly eat the batch of herbs.
"He has already agreed?" Lu Qingye sighed.
"I asked for a good price." Bai Kan smiled.
Lu Qingye took a sip of his tea unbearably, he had really had enough of these two people.
"Are you still negotiating with him?" Lu Qingye felt that the tastes of these two people were really different from others. Could this be a particularly interesting thing?
"What are you talking about?! My brother will settle accounts clearly." Bai Kan said.
It's just that although he pretended to be serious, the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.
002.
His original plan was to let the Bai family follow the same path as the Dong family, planting medicinal materials by themselves, but now he has changed his mind.
He will look at the land of the Bai family. The Dong family is in the medicine field in Zhenjiang, and the people of the Bai family have already passed.
The life of running around is not suitable for him, so he decided to pay more attention to growing medicinal materials.As for Dong Qingqing, he is responsible for running around and selling medicinal materials.
The two of them didn't say these words in person, but Dong Qingqing obviously also meant it, so he had already made a list of what to plant in the medicine field on the Zhenjiang side, so that he could get acquainted with it as soon as possible.
Lu Qingye didn't know what Bai Kan was thinking, just looking at the smile on Bai Kan's face, he couldn't bear to shiver.
Just the two of them were chatting, and now there was another figure at the door, and Dong Qingqing came back.
Because he has to stay here for a long time and often go to the fields, Dong Qingqing specially asked someone to prepare some ordinary clothes for him and Bai Kan. Today he is wearing ordinary sackcloth.
The dark gray clothes fit him well, making him a little less stern and more plain and soft.
Seeing him, Lu Qingye's eyes showed surprise, "Are you going to go to the ground in person?"
While talking, Lu Qingye couldn't help but looked at Bai Kan in surprise, Dong Qingqing was originally the richest man, but Bai Kan was trained/taught like this?
"At the beginning, isn't it like this?" Bai Kan felt insulted. It was not an easy task to start researching and growing a kind of medicinal material, and it is not surprising that there are many things.
"Why is he here?" Dong Qingqing entered the door.
"My father asked him to come over and deliver the account book to me." Bai Kan handed the Bai family's account book to Dong Qingqing and asked him to look at it too.
The Bai family is getting bigger and bigger now, and there are more and more workers under the name of the Bai family, which directly leads to more and more accounts of the Bai family, and the monthly expenditure is more than that of the Dong family.
"Forget it, I'm leaving, lest people look at me here." Lu Qingye got up after speaking, patted his clothes and walked out the door.
Before reaching the door, he stopped again and turned around, "Are you really going to let me go without staying?"
"When I got back, I told my dad that I've read the account book, it's okay, let him do it." Bai Kan waved off the guests with a smile.
Dong Qingqing was busy looking at the account book at the moment and ignored him.
Hearing this, Lu Qingye's face was blue and purple for a while, and after a while, he walked back with a dark face and went back to the place where he just sat down.
"Why are you back again? Aren't you going to leave?" Bai Kan's eyes were full of ridicule.
Lu Qingye was so angry, but he couldn't fight Baikan, so he simply kept silent and expressed his determination with actions.
After that, he stayed here for two or three days, Bai Kan didn't rush him, and let him go everywhere every day.
Bai Kan didn't urge him, and Dong Qingqing ignored him, but Lu Qingye became restless and anxious, and rode back by himself on the fourth day.
Bai Linyuan was still waiting for him to send the message back, so there was no delay.
Riding a horse and leaving the town with Bai Kan's teasing smile, Lu Qingye comforted himself all the way back. He was just too responsible, and definitely not afraid of Bai Linyuan!
Back in Baijia Town, Lu Qingye went to the Baijia, told Bai Linyuan the ledger and news brought back, and then stood nervously aside.
"I see." Bai Linyuan said.
After speaking, he put away the ledger and finished his work. When Bai Linyuan turned his head, Lu Qingye was still standing there.
"Is there anything else?" Bai Linyuan asked.
"No..." Lu Qingye looked at Bai Linyuan with complicated eyes. He thought that Bai Linyuan would be angry if he came back so many days late, but why didn't Bai Linyuan seem to respond?
"It's okay, then go back first, what are you doing standing here?" Bai Linyuan said.
"Oh, good..." Lu Qingye went out.
He walked for a while with a stiff neck, and he didn't hear Bai Linyuan's voice until he left the gate of Bai's house. He looked back again, is Bai Linyuan really not angry?
When Lu Qingye came back, he was ready to be continued, but nothing seemed to happen to Bai Linyuan.
Bai Linyuan didn't express it at all, but Lu Qingye became more and more uncomfortable, always feeling uncomfortable all over his body.
Lu Qingye was uncomfortable, but Bai Linyuan was a little funny watching him leave. Now Lu Qingye completely regarded him as a scourge.
September passed, October came, and when winter came, the medicinal materials on the side of the paddy fields were harvested.
In the early morning, Bai Kan took the cloak handed over by Dong Qingqing and put it on, and looked at Dong Qingqing again, a little envious.
Dong Qingqing is in good health, and she only wears a thicker coat this season than before.Unlike him, he now has three inner and outer layers, dressed as if he is going to winter.
"In the past?" Dong Qingqing asked.
"The others have already passed by. Finish your work early and call it a day. The temperature is low at night." Bai Kan took the lead and walked towards the door.
This side is close to the water, and it is easy to get foggy in the morning.
When Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing walked towards the paddy field, the surrounding visibility was not high, and there was a vast expanse of whiteness in the distance.
When they arrived at the place, the two saw a group of people already waiting by the paddy field.
Because it is a paddy field and the water is deep, all the people who work here are good at water, and many of them used to be fishermen.
"It's almost time to start!" Someone said.
The few people who had been prepared for a long time began to take off their clothes. The weather was already a bit cold. As soon as those people took off their clothes, they immediately got goose bumps all over their bodies, and Bai Kan was also standing on end with chills.
Those people moved their bodies, then entered the water along the same side, and after adapting to the water temperature, they dived into the water and began to explore.
Someone from the shore came over with bamboo baskets, waiting for them to collect the medicinal herbs, and then pack them and send them to the newly built warehouse of the Bai family next to the town for processing.
This aquatic plant has a heavy moisture content and is not so easy to dry. It will take nearly a month to dry before it can be sent to Dong's house.
As for the future, the Dong family has already contacted the next family, the deposit has been collected, and as soon as the things are ready, they will be sent over.
The sound of water sounded, and the people who had dived into the water came out. Those people let go of the herbs they picked, and the herbs immediately floated up.
Someone nearby took a tool to hook it, and the person in the water immediately dived down again. The weather is too cold to stay in the water for too long.
Bai Kan stood by, seeing the medicinal materials being hooked ashore, he walked over to have a look.
The growth of the medicinal materials is not bad, the torso that can be used for medicine is round and long, and some of them are almost white as thick as fingers.
Dong Qingqing knew what Bai Kan was looking at, so he also walked over to have a look, "It's not bad, the leaves should be nearly two hundred catties."
Bai Kan's eyes lit up, which was more than he expected.
One paddy field is two hundred catties, and three yuan is nearly six hundred catties. Even if the error is larger and only five hundred catties are left, that is still a lot.
So far, not many people have successfully grown this kind of medicinal material. Most of them are wild. People near the waterside go to the water to collect and sell them by themselves. The quantity is small and the quality is uneven.
The quality of his batch of medicinal materials is good, the quantity is large, the price is also negotiable, and the profit is quite considerable.
This medicinal material can be planted several times a year, during which time it is mixed with other medicinal materials. The three paddy fields add up, and the profit it brings to him in one year is much higher than he expected.
Bai Kan's eyes were full of excitement, and he instinctively turned his head to look at Dong Qingqing next to him.
Dong Qingqing reached out and touched his head. There was a faint smile on his face, as if he was looking at a puppy who only wanted to be praised.
Bai Kan slapped his hand away, who wants him to pat his head?
Bai Kan scratched at his own hair, it was messed up.
"After tidying up next year, the harvest should be even better." Dong Qingqing didn't point it out, but pulled the person over with a smile, and put her hand in it.
Holding Bai Kan's hand in his, Dong Qingqing tightened it.
Bai Kan's body is cold, and he tends to get cold in winter, but his hands are already a little cold now.
Bai Kan nodded, agreeing.This is the first time I don't have much experience, so it will be worse after all, and it will definitely increase the income when I become proficient.
"What are you going to do with the other places around here? Do you want to rent them out as you prepared before?" Dong Qingqing asked.
After the medicinal material was successfully planted, Bai Kan has been thinking about it.Now that there is a method of planting, expanding paddy fields has become one of the good ways to directly increase income.
"We'll have a look again during the Chinese New Year." Bai was in no hurry, "There is a piece of land around here, the only place where the terrain is relatively low, so it's easier to bring water in, other places are too troublesome."
The water in the paddy field is not always changed, it must be changed every once in a while, so as not to become stagnant water and spoil the medicinal materials under the water.
Dong Qingqing listened quietly, and after Bai Kan finished speaking, he said again: "Are you going to continue planting the medicine field on the Zhenjiang side, or should you retreat first?"
With this piece of land owned by the Bai family, the few medicine fields on the other side of Zhenjiang seem a bit insignificant, and Dong Qingqing's mind is not there now.
"Keep it for now, maybe it can be used, anyway, it's just an occasional visit there." Bai Kan said.
The two discussed, and there were already many more medicinal materials by the water.The waiting people took their poles and went to the town with the medicinal materials.
After the sun warmed up, Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing left the paddy fields and walked towards the town side by side.
According to Bai Kan's original plan, it would take three years for the Bai family to slowly and secretly learn to transform, and then after ending the cooperation with Dong Qingqing, they began to try their own seeds.
Dong Qingqing's help became the main factor for the complete transformation of the Bai family, which also made the transformation of the Bai family much faster than expected. After a year, the Bai family now has a complete system, and the experience in planting has already been counted. rich on.
On the way back, Bai Kan relaxed as he thought about the past year.
He took the initiative to approach Dong Qingqing, stretched out his hand to hold Dong Qingqing's hand, and joined hands with Zi.
"Let's go back to Baijia Town after the medicinal materials here are collected!" Bai Kan said.
"En." Dong Qingqing replied softly, and it was almost Chinese New Year.
After Bai Kan came here, he has been staring at the paddy fields here, and it has been half a year, and it is time to go back to Baijia Town.
"It's time to go to Bai's house for the New Year." Bai Kan said.
Dong Qingqing looked over, "OK."
"From now on, we will celebrate the New Year at Bai's house." Bai Kan said again.
The corners of Dong Qingqing's mouth curled up, and he laughed, but didn't speak.
"My father agreed." Bai Kan tightly grasped Dong Qingqing's hand a little nervously.
Bai Linyuan has already acquiesced in their relationship, and even the members of the Bai family and the Dong family already know about it.
When this story first spread, it did cause a lot of commotion, but the people in Baijia Town watched Bai Kan grow up, and apart from being a little surprised at the beginning, they quickly accepted it later.
Now, every time they see Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing walking together, they are no strangers to it.
On the contrary, people outside were quite surprised by this incident, which caused quite a commotion.
The lunatic from Nanjiang Chengjia even seized this opportunity, showed his face, and said something to ridicule Dong Qingqing, but it was a pity that Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing ignored him at all.
Nanjiang Chengjia suffered a lot from the previous incident, and was busy recovering his energy for a long time, so Bai Kan hadn't seen the young master of the family for a long time.
On this point, Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing had the same opinion, that is, they felt a little regretful.
The head of the family is quite likable, in a sense.
003.
It took nearly a month for the three paddy fields to collect all the medicinal materials.
After harvesting the medicinal herbs, those people took the medicinal herbs for processing, and the masters were also busy with a new wave of planting.
Seeing that everything went well, Bai Kan collected his things and took Dong Qingqing back to Baijia Town.
The town here is not far from Baijia Town, and it can be reached on the same day. They set off in the morning and arrived there just after noon.
When they arrived in the town, Bai Linyuan and Dong Qingqing went home separately.
Bai Kan originally planned to take Dong Qingqing to Bai's house, but Dong Qingqing said that he would go to Dong's house first, and he hadn't come back for a long time.
When he arrived at Bai's house, before Bai Kan entered, he saw Bai Linyuan and Mr. Qing walking over.
"Daddy, Mr. Qing, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much." Bai Kan immediately called out when he saw someone's mouth, his mouth was so sweet.
Bai Linyuan was in a good mood when he was shouted at, and the things he was thinking about, asking Bai Kan for so long and not willing to come back to have a look, were instantly forgotten.
Bai Kan's smile became sweeter, and he grabbed Bai Linyuan's arm, "I was going to come back a few days ago, but something happened over there, otherwise I would have come back to accompany you long ago."
"It's okay, you need to worry more about Yaotian's affairs." Bai Linyuan was coaxed into a burst of laughter.
Mr. Qing walked beside, looked at the two father and son, smiled and shook his head.
"I miss you too, Mr. Qing." Bai Kan did not forget Mr. Qing.
Although he was a little afraid of Mr. Qing, it didn't stop him from liking Mr. Qing, the way he liked his elders.
"Where's Dong Qingqing?" Mr. Qing asked.
Bai Kan's tricks can also deceive Bai Linyuan.
"I originally asked him to come here, but he said he would go to Dong's house first." Bai Kan was slightly dissatisfied, and Dong Qingqing ran away as soon as he came back here.
"He is the head of the Dong family, no matter what, the Dong family still has to take care of him." Bai Linyuan said before Mr. Xianqing.
After finishing speaking, Bai Linyuan stopped, looked into Bai Kan's eyes quite seriously, and said, "You will be the head of the Bai family from now on, so be careful."
"It's still early!" Bai Kan brought up this topic with a smile, Bai Linyuan is still young, how can he still be a family member for ten years.
Bai Linyuan still wanted to say something, but Bai Kan had already dragged him into the hall, "I'm hungry, is there anything delicious? When I'm over there, what I miss most is the food at home."
"I thought you missed me the most." Bai Lin Yuanhu pretended to be unhappy with a face.
Bai Kan quickly changed his words, trying to coax Bai Linyuan.
After saying the pleasant words to Bai Linyuan, Bai Kan did not forget to say a few words to Mr. Qing next to him until he coaxed them both to be happy.
After talking with Bai Kan, Bai Linyuan immediately asked someone to prepare food, and after he finished giving orders, Dong Qingqing came in with a food box at the door.
Before seeing anyone, Bai Kan smelled the aroma inside the food box, "Milk tofu?"
Now that it's winter, the peddler who sells milk cakes has re-sold milk tofu.
"Well, I bought some while passing by." Dong Qingqing put the food box on the table.
When the servants saw it, they hurried to get the bowls and chopsticks. Dong Qingqing said, "Bring more bowls and chopsticks." He also bought some for Bai Linyuan and Mr. Qing.
Dong Qingqing nodded and greeted Bai Linyuan and Mr. Qing, while Bai Kan had already run to unpack the food box, with his long nose sticking out, he was so hungry.
It was Dong Qingqing who knew him best, knowing that he hadn't eaten milk cakes or milk tofu during this period of time, and missed him very much, so she went to buy it for him even though she had to take a detour, and even lied about it.
Bringing the bowls and chopsticks, Dong Qingqing went up to serve them. After serving them, he added three tablespoons of sugar, and then put the bowls in front of Bai Kan.
Bai Kan couldn't wait to sit beside him with a spoon, and when he saw the bowl in front of him, he immediately leaned over and took a deep breath.
"It smells good."
It's so sweet that it can't be eaten, but the other three people don't have this hobby, and their tastes are relatively normal.
The four of them sat down and chatted briefly about the paddy fields while eating.
After eating, Dong Qingqing briefly talked about this year's harvest in Baijia Town.
The climate in Baijia Town is indeed suitable for growing most medicinal materials, but there are also some that are not suitable, such as the beans before.
That bean made the Dong family lose a fortune, not a big one, but a memory.
He has already arranged that this year the medicinal materials will be planted in the field on the other side of Zhenjiang, not here.
"Then you plan to stay here forever?" Bai Linyuan asked.
"Well, I've moved most of our family over."
"Where's the herbal medicine shop?" Bai Linyuan asked again. The Dong family not only has medicine fields, but also many medicinal herb shops.
"It's fine over there, and someone will help to keep an eye on it. I only need to go there once or twice a year. And many of the customers are old customers who have worked with them, so they are easy to talk to. Sometimes they send medicinal materials directly from the medicine field." Dong Qingqing explain.
Bai Linyuan now has a certain understanding of the medicine industry, and he has personally seen Dong's guests take away the medicine directly from the medicine field.
Taking a look at Bai Linyuan's face, Dong Qingqing tentatively said, "Next year, I want to focus on dealing with those guests. As for Yaotian, I will leave it to the Bai family."
Bai Linyuan was stunned, a little surprised, but expected.
He was silent, also thinking.
How could he not understand Dong Qingqing's meaning? He intended to let the Bai family take over the Dong family's planting of medicinal materials, while he mainly turned to exporting medicinal materials.
In this way, the Bai family is getting better and better, and Dong Qingqing is of course not bad. He has more time to expand his business.
But in this way, Dong Qingqing also handed over the foundation of the Dong family to the Bai family.
If the Bai family were to think carefully about small tricks and take all of them for themselves, or if something went wrong, Dong Qingqing would be implicated immediately.
The foundation of the Dong family was damaged, and the damage suffered must be greater than that of the Nanjiang family.
Bai Linyuan thought about it carefully, and only said: "I don't care about your affairs, you can take care of them yourself, and I will only help you when I can help."
It was the first time that Bai Linyuan said this in front of Dong Qingqing, which made Dong Qingqing a little surprised, and then ecstasy filled the air.
Although he knew from Bai Kan's side that Bai Linyuan had agreed with him and Bai Kan, this was the first time Bai Linyuan said it in front of him.
Dong Qingqing suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, he glanced at Bai Kan, and said: "I've thought about this too, given the current situation of the Dong family, it's already very difficult to continue to develop..."
The Dong family also grows medicinal materials and wholesales medicinal materials in large quantities. They also own a certain pharmacy shop. Although they make money from everything, if you really want to say, they don't make a lot of money.
Before meeting Bai Kan, Dong Qingqing was already thinking about whether to continue like this?
Now he has made a decision to focus more on his business, and leave the cultivation of medicinal materials to Bai Kan.
Bai Linyuan listened quietly, nodding from time to time.
He seldom raises opinions, not because he has no opinions, but because the blows in the early years made him fully realize the reality, he is not a material for doing business!
Fortunately, Bai Kan's son is more capable than his father, otherwise Bai Linyuan doesn't know what to do.
Thinking of how the father and son could only live on their laurels pitifully after they lost their land, Bai Linyuan turned pale.
It was rare to open up the conversation, and the few people talked more and more enthusiastically, and when the chat was over, the sky darkened.
At night, in order to welcome Bai Kan and Dong Qingqing back, Bai Linyuan asked the Bai family to make some delicious food.
At the dinner table, Bai Kan was the happiest. He kept stuffing things into his mouth, hating himself for not being able to eat more.
After dinner, Bai Kan grabbed Dong Qingqing and took him to the yard where he lived.
Bai Kan's yard is still the same as before, without any changes, which reminds Dong Qingqing of the yard he lived in when he was a child.
Thinking of it, Dong Qingqing mentioned a few words to Bai Kan, saying that the courtyard where he lived originally had a swing and a flower garden...
Dong Qingqing just mentioned it casually, but Bai Kan took his heart, dragged him to the study, and showed him the portrait of his mother that his father cherished so dearly.
The woman in the portrait is gentle and moving. She is sitting stiffly, but she has a bright smile on her face.That smile was exactly the same as that of Bai Kan.
Bai Kan inherited half of his mother's half of his father's, that smile came from his mother, and he was smart too.
Back in the small courtyard, Bai Kan told Dong Qingqing something about his childhood, and about his mother.
Bai Kan could no longer remember his mother, but his father told him a lot, plus his grandfather's description, and Mr. Qing's occasional mentions, Bai Kan's words were familiar.
His parents were both gentle people, that's why he gave birth to a gentle Bai Kan.
Although Dong Qingqing had never met her, she could sense what kind of person she was from Bai Kan.
The two chatted until their mouths were dry before stopping. They quietly looked at the starry sky in the yard for a while, and Bai Kan led the people back to the room.
The house here is not like in other towns, Dong Qingqing's things are everywhere, but there is no rush, when Dong Qingqing comes to live, you can move slowly.
After washing up, I turned off the lights and lay down on the bed.
Bai Kan moved towards Dong Qingqing, getting closer to him, it was a bit cold when he just lay down under the quilt.
Dong Qingqing turned over and lay on his side facing Bai Kan. He put his arms around Bai Kan, bringing the distance between them closer, warming Bai Kan and himself with his body.
"Have I ever told you that I like you?" Bai Kan put his head next to Dong Qingqing's, and whispered to him while hiding under the quilt.
Dong Qingqing was stunned, why did Bai Kan suddenly mention this?
"Me too." Dong Qing
