Fang Zhai more than ten acres [system]

Nie Xuan walked away dejectedly.

The eyes of Yu Rong and Nie Xin were left behind.

Speechless for a while.

Being alone face to face like this made Yu Rong think of the embarrassment in the morning again, and subconsciously cleared his throat: "Brother Xin..."

Nie Xinzhi said at the same time: "Take this bee needle for self-defense."

Yu Rong was suddenly distracted, and looked curiously at the thing in the man's hand... Is it another hidden weapon?

"How do you use it?"

Nie Xinzhi directly started to demonstrate. As soon as the machine was started, there were several muffled bangs, and several small holes appeared in the solid ground in an instant.

The lethality seems to be pretty good?

When the "bee needles" stuck deep in the soil were pulled out, Yu Rong realized that the lethality of this thing is more than good.

The so-called "bee needles" are not needles. They are more like nails in size and thickness, but the head is different, similar to a miniature arrowhead, tapered and sharp, with barbs.

Trigger the mechanism, and the "bee needle" is sent out instantly, piercing and piercing the armor. Once it hits the human body, it will cause an explosive wound...it's terrible.

The lethality is no worse than that of the previous small rotary knife. Except that it requires a lot of finger force to press the mechanism, it is also very easy to operate.

Yu Rong tried it out after receiving it, and it felt like a nail gun when using it. I don't know what kind of principle it is... What is certain is that the person who designed this hidden weapon and mechanism must be a genius!

——Maybe, there is a "weapon equipment research and development department" inside the Niyiwei?

"Thank you, Brother Xin."

Yu Rong didn't make hypocritical excuses, and happily accepted the bee needle.

He felt that this thing was easier to use than the previous hidden weapons.

Such self-defense weapons are essential until the basic skills given by the system have been practiced to perfection.

Although, learning from the previous lessons, he planned to prepare some self-defense drugs.

The reality is not martial arts movies.

There is no drug that can poison a person with a wave of the hand.Even if it exists, it cannot be produced with Yu Rong's current level... Even if it is produced, you have to worry about the wind direction being misaligned when poisoning, so don't hurt yourself before poisoning the enemy.

With this bee needle, you don't have to worry too much about safety issues if you have some medical treatment on the needles next time you encounter a critical situation.

However, this thing is a big killer, and it should not be used lightly unless it is facing the most vicious people.

Fortunately, the system can roughly identify people, and keep a certain amount of contribution for emergencies.

"And this thing, take it with you."

Yu Rong was embarrassed.

By the way, brother Xin, shouldn't there be a storage compartment too?Otherwise, why would he look like Tinker Bell... He was obviously wearing a strong outfit, so he couldn't see where he could hide things.

I complained in my heart, but obediently took it, the thin and long bamboo-like thing that the man handed to him.

... a little heavy.

It seems to be a knife with a bamboo sheath, or a similar weapon?

Guessing like this, Yu Rong grabbed the handle and stretched out his hand to pull it out...

Suddenly his eyes widened, he was extremely surprised!

Isn't this the existence of our army's artifact-the three-edged thorn? !

He actually crossed a plane, and in this ancient era, met it by fate.

Yu Rong played with the three-edged thorn, looked at it over and over again, and couldn't put it down.only……

"Is this a murder weapon? Is it okay to carry it with you?" Just like a dagger given by the system, you dare not take it out unless it is an emergency.

Nie Xinzhi said lightly, "No problem."

Hearing this, Yu Rong'an felt relieved, this person said it's okay, so it shouldn't matter...Anyway, there is a storage compartment, so it should be hidden normally.

The little grievances of the morning have disappeared.

Yu Rong was very moved by Nie Xin's gift of self-defense weapons, and made a decision: "Brother Xin, wait a moment."

After saying this, he quickly walked back to the bedroom.Pretending to rummage through the cabinet, he took out the dagger that had shaved iron like mud.

"This thing is too sharp, I dare not take it out of the scabbard easily," Yu Rong handed the dagger to the man, "It would be too wasteful to let me go."

Three-edged thorns and daggers are enough for self-defense.He didn't exaggerate, this dagger was indeed too sharp and he didn't dare to use it.

Nie Xinzhi neither declined nor asked further questions, and hung the dagger directly on his waist.

So crisp and neat, Yu Rong was stunned when he saw it: he didn't even ask about the origin of this dagger, after all, the product produced by the system is not ordinary... It saves him from making up stories.

Gifting weapons to each other—this statement seems to be wrong—Nie Xinzhi led a group of men and left in a hurry.

There was only one person left.

Yu Rong went to the guest room and consultation room, originally planning to clean it, but found that the room was clean, the objects were arranged neatly, and the quilt was folded, it didn’t look like the person who lived there just now, there was no need to tidy up—— couldn’t help but laugh , I have a better impression of Ni Zhiwei... Really worthy of being a "disciplined force"!

There was nothing to clean up in the house, so I went to the backyard.

After several days of busy work, the vegetable field has been opened up.

Yu Rong checked and found that after he was taken away by the guards yesterday, the odd workers did not "strike" and sowed all the rapeseed in the ground according to the pre-plan.

However, the land that can be reclaimed in the backyard, excluding Shuidang, is almost three acres, and it will take some time to turn over all the soil by manpower.Not in a hurry.In early November, it is enough to sow the seeds of Platycodon grandiflorum and Atractylodes macrocephala.

The sun is out.

Yu Rong squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of Zhuangzi. He was slightly relieved when he saw several familiar figures walking towards here carrying hoes and other agricultural tools.

It seems that what happened yesterday did not affect everyone's enthusiasm for going to work.As for what might be discussed behind the scenes, he didn't care.

Open the fence gate in the backyard so that people can come in and out... It's still those odd jobs, but without the second brother Cheng who led the guards to the door.

Yu Rong didn't ask.

The boss of the Li family, who had grown closer to him, whispered in his ear that not half an hour after he was taken away by the guards, another group of particularly powerful officers and soldiers came and took him away without saying a word. No one came back.

After hearing this, Yu Rong almost got the bottom line in his heart, but he didn't say anything.

If Ni Zhiwei arrests people, I think there will be no reason.

He doesn't care what will happen to the second brother Cheng.To be honest, he didn't quite understand why the other party wanted to "tip the news" and deliberately lure the guards to his house... If it wasn't for a chance meeting, he would have known the Commander of Niji Langwei a long time ago, but he didn't know that this time he would eat How hard it is.

Anyway, a lesson can be drawn from this, no matter where and what era, it is indeed a wise saying that people's hearts are unpredictable.You must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others.After this, he really took this sentence to heart.

Yu Rong quickly put aside the unpleasant matter and continued to be busy with his work.

According to the contract, He Manzi, a "professional medicinal plant grower", has to come to pick up Bupleurum seeds in two days.

Yu Rong had to hurry up—fortunately, it was a reward from the system, and the trouble of seed selection was saved for the first time of sowing—Bupleurum seeds had a layer of cutin, which hindered germination and would have a bad impact on the quality of the seedlings, so Seed soaking is very necessary.

It's a little trivial to do, but it's not difficult.

——Because it was the first cooperation between Yu Rong and He Manzi, they decided to sow one acre of Bupleurum bupleurum first, as an experiment... five catties of seeds per acre of land would be enough.

Take out five catties of seeds and sprinkle them on a bamboo plaque to dry, so that the sun can kill the bacteria on the skin.However, the quality of the products produced by the system is excellent, and taking advantage of the good sun, it is almost enough to spend half a day in the sun.

The hut that had been vacant was officially put into use. Sufficient firewood was prepared, the stove was lit, and water was boiled in a pot. The temperature rose, and it suddenly became a simple version of a "greenhouse".

Yu Rong sat on the pedal, grinding sapindus, fruits, skin stems, etc.—the main raw materials that were previously used to make medicated soap—commonly known as "washing fruit". In addition to the basic functions of decontamination and decontamination, it can clear heat, reduce swelling, kill insects and eliminate accumulation, and the medicinal effect is quite good.

The powdered Sapindus chinensis is washed into warm water, and the seeds are soaked in it, which can not only soften the cutin, improve the germination rate and the quality of seedlings, but also prevent diseases and insect pests to a certain extent.

Seeds with thick skins should be soaked overnight, rinsed with clean water after being fished out, and dried in the shade. After drying, turn around and then sow.

After soaking the seeds, Yu Rong remembered the seeds he traded when he was in prison. Jasmine and Tuberose like to be warm and need sunlight, so they were not suitable for breeding in the winter of Xin'an Prefecture, so they put them aside.

Relatively speaking, catnip has less strict requirements on climate and soil, and is easier to feed. Therefore, even though it is not a good time to plant catnip, I decided to make good use of the shack greenhouse and plant some first...to please my three masters .

There were dozens of custom-made flowerpots, large and small, in the pottery workshop that day, more than enough for catnip.

Looking through the seed reserve, I found the big gift bag I received for the first time.After thinking about it for a while, Yu Rong also took out some of the chrysanthemum seeds... The climate in Xin'an Prefecture is very suitable for planting chrysanthemums. Use it all.

I was busy planting flowers during the day, and never forgot to learn medical skills at night. My life was back on track, and I lived every day to the fullest.

When Bupleurum seeds were planted in Xiao'er Mountain, news came from Taoyuan.

Peach trees were planted along the water bank along the wooden fence on the left and right sides; the ten-year-old pear tree was moved to the backyard not far from the well; sweet-scented osmanthus was planted in the front yard, near the guest room; Several one-year wintersweet branches stick to the inside of the wooden fence, forming a new "enclosed wall".

When transplanting these trees, Yu Rong accidentally discovered a large field of wild honeysuckle. He directly asked the Taoyuan workers to help him dig up these vine roots, transfer them to his backyard, and plant them along the wooden fence near the shore of Shuitai.

Honeysuckle is also a commonly used bulk medicinal material.

But he transplanted these, but not because of their medicinal value.

——This thing is really common, the purchase price should not be too cheap, and it is completely superfluous to grow it for medicinal purposes.

It is purely for decoration, and it will bloom in spring and autumn, which is very interesting.

Moreover, when the vine climbs up the wooden fence, it can also play a certain blocking role, preventing the cat from playing on the water side and accidentally falling into the water.

……

In just a few days, Yu Rong's new home in this time and space has changed drastically.

He was still alone, with three cats, and there were more trees and flowers, and it seemed to become lively all of a sudden.

That night, Sange Lin returned to Qinglian from other places in a hurry, and didn't even return home, so he went to Yu Rong's immediately to "pick up the goods".

Yu Rong, who was delayed for a day and a night by being imprisoned, worked overtime for the past two nights, and finally did not "break the contract".

The things were handed over to Lin Sange, who graciously kept him for dinner.

Yu Rong seldom leaves the village for no reason, so Brother Lin is the information channel for him to understand the outside world... Although whether he knows the outside world seems to have little to do with his personal life, but he lived in the modern age with advanced information, and suddenly came Going to a place where the news is closed and not smooth, I always feel that something is missing, which makes people somewhat uneasy.

Lin Sange runs around all day long, from Qinglian to Yanzhou, as far as the capital, and occasionally even goes further to other prefectures... The sources of information are naturally much wider.

So, chat while eating.

At my own dinner table, I don't pay attention to what I eat.

From Sange Lin's small talk, Yu Rong knew that Ni Jiwei had made another big move these days.

A large number of officials in Xin'an Prefecture, from the magistrate to the county magistrate, and even some local gentry, dozens of people, all "fallen".

There are hundreds of people who were dismissed from their posts, searched and searched, those who were dispatched, and those who were exiled.

During this period of time, Xin'an Mansion has turned upside down.

Hearing Lin Sange's emotion, Yu Rong was thoughtful.He was imprisoned innocently, could it be related to these things... Thinking about it this way, I suddenly felt that I was really dangerous before!

"It is said that……"

Yu Rong came back to his senses and continued to listen to Brother Lin San.

"Master Zhifu is related to that person."

"That" does not refer to Imakami, but a door god king who can scare a child to cry at night.

When it comes to his family's friends, Yu Rong is inevitably curious: "Isn't that the emperor's relatives?"

If this is the case, Brother Xin is really very "stern and selfless"... No wonder, his reputation has spread so badly that even ordinary people know his name—I'm afraid he has offended too many people, right?

"Not everyone can be called a relative of the emperor."

——The state of Min controls the public's speech properly, without excessive indulgence, but it is not so strict as to "don't talk about state affairs".If you chat like this now, as long as it is not a slanderous speech, the officials will not care too much about it.

After Sange Lin shook his head, he continued: "It can only be said that the magistrate may be related to the Cangping Su family."

Yu Rong was silent for a moment before asking: "What is the Cangping Su family?"

Lin Sange looked at the young doctor with some surprise: "The senior privy envoy of the two dynasties is surnamed Su!"

Yu Rong was stunned.

Isn't the so-called privy envoy the head of the Privy Council and the Minister of Defense of Minchao?

He knew that the privy envoy's surname was Su, but he didn't know anything about his family in detail.

Suddenly, I thought of the Su Chongbi brothers I met in Baijiu Town. According to Nie Xinzhi, they came from the Cangping Su family... Thinking of Nie Xinzhi's evaluation of the two, and then thinking about the mansion of Ni Yiwei and the pro-military captain As well as the complex relationship between the Privy Council's three-point military power, a political drama could not help but be performed in my mind.

Then Lin Sange said: "Master Privy Envoy is that uncle." That's why it is said that the former prefect of Xin'an Mansion is related to that one.

Yu Rong, who was full of joy in his brain, was taken aback for a moment: "Uncle?"

It surprised me that.Although Su Chongbi had said that he should call Nie Xinzhi his cousin, but seeing that the relationship between them was not as good as strangers, he thought they were just distant relatives. After all, there were not a few families that married into the royal family.

Lin Sange nodded: "The first concubine is the sister of the Privy Envoy."

Yu Rong was a little confused: "Since he is the brother of the first concubine, how could the Privy Envoy be the uncle of Xin...that one?"

It's not that he is ignorant, he has only been in this world for a few months, and he doesn't understand a lot of things without deliberately inquiring about them.

Lin Sange was surprised by his question: "Isn't the first concubine the mother of that?"

Eh... wait...

"Why is King Sixin's mother the first concubine?"

I have to admit that Yu Rong's thinking went wrong for a moment, and the political drama in his mind almost turned into a green romance movie.

Third brother Lin was silent for a while, and asked back: "Doctor Xiao Yu probably doesn't know, but that father is Prince Zhaoxian, right?"

It was only then that Yu Rong suddenly realized that the relationship between the various characters in the ancient palace and officialdom was too complicated, and he didn't turn his mind for a while, cough—and then realized that his most powerful friend was actually the eldest son of the former prince. In a way, shouldn't it be the grandson of the emperor?

Why, the one in power now is...

No wonder, Nie Xinzhi will become the only heir of the Min Dynasty.

Romance movies have transformed gorgeously and become palace fighting dramas again.

Yu Rong dismissed his thoughts silently, and answered Lin Sange's question: "I was overseas at first, and I haven't heard of many things in China."

Lin Sange didn't doubt it, and said: "Prince Zhaoxian has passed away for nearly 20 years, and Doctor Xiaoyu, you have only returned to China for a few days. It's normal that you haven't heard of it."

Now when it comes to King Sixin, compared to the illusory title of the eldest son of the former crown prince, the illustrious reputation of the Commander of the Rebel Guard is obviously more impressive.

Inexplicably involving the affairs of the palace, even small talk, it is not appropriate.

The two tacitly gave up the discussion, changed the topic, stopped talking about state affairs, and continued to talk about business.

"By the way, third brother," while talking, Yu Rong suddenly remembered the previous decision, and said, "When you go to the city, you can recruit a few people for me in your spare time."

"Doctor Xiao Yu, have you finally figured out how to hire manpower?" Lin Sange said, "I told you earlier, with such a big business, one person simply can't handle it!"

Yu Rong smiled, not denying it.

Lin Sange immediately asked, "What kind of manpower will be needed?"

"Those who can take care of the home are not limited to one or two. They are skilled and trustworthy, and it doesn't matter if they know how to do farm work. Other than that..." Yu Rong pondered for a moment, then continued, "Let's find some more apprentices. .”

After that night of adventures, he felt that it would be better to hire a nursing home. Moreover, there is no need to worry about going out occasionally when there are people in the family.

As for apprentices, Yu Rong also figured it out, there is a systematic assessment, there is no need to belittle oneself too much.

A person's time and energy are too limited, find a few young apprentices, and help them when they are busy. After a long time, if they can be trusted, they will hand over the work of making toothpaste, medicine soap, etc., and have the right to hire labor, including food. It is much better to pay back the wages than to be a real apprentice.

As he said that, Yu Rong emphasized: "Ability is the second priority. The key is to have a clean background and a decent character." If you find a few top-notch ones, it will be terrible.

Lin Sange swore: "I, Zhang Lin, have no other abilities. I have practiced a set of skills in seeing people in the dental clinic since I was a child... Xiao Yu, doctor, put your heart in your stomach, and I will definitely find you some reliable and reliable ones." Come back if you can."

"Third brother, I believe it."

It was settled, Lin Sange picked up the basket containing toothpaste and medicinal soap, bid farewell to Yu Rong and went home.

The next day.

Early in the morning, odd workers came one by one to ask Yu Rong for leave.

Yu Rong was a little baffled, and after asking the boss of the Li family, he found out that today is the Xiayuan Festival.

Xiayuan is the time when the water officials relieve their misfortunes, and the customs are different in different places. In the area of ​​Yanzhou, it is an important sacrificial day comparable to the Shangyuan Festival.

On the day of Xiayuan Festival, there are no jobs, no work, no shops, and everyone goes home for the holiday.

In addition to burning incense and worshiping ancestors, whenever there is a festival, whether it is a sacrifice or a celebration, it is inevitable to do some related food.

In Qinglian, the men collectively go to the pond to pick up lotus roots, and the women clean up the inside and outside of the house, tie up some colored paper lanterns, and hang them inside and outside the hall. At home, there is a big pot full.

In the evening, the colored paper lanterns are lit, and after worshiping the ancestors, the family gathers around the table to eat lotus root... It just so happens that the Hungry Ghost Festival is the day of the [-]th full moon. In Qinglian, this day also means reunion.

Yu Rong hugged Sanxiu, stood in front of her house, looked eastward, beyond Xiaohenggou, there were stretches of big ponds and water dams, usually the most deserted place, today was full of people's laughter.

Not only the villagers from Qinglian, but also people from neighboring villages, and even people from farther away came to dig lotus roots.

After waiting and watching for a long time, Yu Rong slowly looked away when the cat got impatient and jumped out of his arms and went to play with his friends.

Turn around and go home.

It was cold and clear, and suddenly, there was a burst of melancholy in my heart.

Family reunion is a word that has nothing to do with him anymore.

Shaking his head, Yu Rong went straight to the greenhouse.

——It's not what a doctor should do to say something about worrying about new words.

Instead of wanting to have nothing, it is better to continue to take care of the catnip and chrysanthemums that have not yet sprouted...

In case he doesn't pay attention, those few clawed guys have dug out the seeds, and then they can say how sad they want to be!

Suddenly, a rhythmic sound of horseshoes came from far and near.

Yu Rong heard it sharply, and couldn't help but startled, and the corner of her mouth curved into a shallow arc.

"Brother Xin, you've heard that he came here uninvited, so it's called an uninvited guest."

The young doctor laughed at Yan Yan.

Nie Xinzhi followed the sound and looked over.

In the solitude of early winter, the red crane cloak has become the brightest scene.

The man replied in a deep voice: "Frequently coming, it's for the guest of honor." (*)

Yu Rong couldn't help thinking about it.

When it comes to the guest of honor, the second reaction is something like a minister under the skirt...

There is a feeling of being molested.

Although, the guest of honor here means a good relationship, closeness and trust, and there is no "special" meaning.

Yu Rong coughed, and changed the subject: "Brother Xin came to the humble house, what can I do?"
