I am the county magistrate in Daming
Chapter 17 All things grow
Yao Qin went to the martial arts gym again, and hired five strong men for a tael of silver.Because of the high price, these five people were very diligent, and Yao Qin pointed to an acquaintance's livestock store, and bought a donkey cart at a very affordable price.
With the donkey cart, Yao Qin took his people back to Fushoutang, loaded seven buckets of hogwash, and bought rice seeds under the introduction of the owner of Fushoutang.After carefully counting the tasks Mu Qingtian ordered for him, and after confirming that they were correct, Yao Qin asked one of the strong men to drive the donkey cart and returned to Zimingli in the dark.
"Shui Shui?" On the second night, Wu Tingyun was a little puzzled when he received the reward from his subordinates.He noticed that the emerald cabbage that was originally placed on the shelf in the study was missing, so he sent someone to follow Yao Qin to see where he was going with the emerald cabbage.
"Yes. After arriving in Chongming County, Yaoqin sold the jade very quickly. It seemed that he was in a hurry, and was brutally slaughtered by the shopkeeper." The man in black said.
"No, not necessarily." Wu Tingyun thought.Mu Qingtian is not such a stupid person, he must know the value of emerald cabbage.Selling the cabbage cannot be Yao Qin's idea, Mu Qingtian may have said something to him...
"continue."
"The swill is obtained from Fushoutang. After you let Xiaoqi come back, master, he is responsible for keeping an eye on Fushoutang."
"Are there any abnormalities?"
"No, Xiao Qi went to turn over the bucket, but didn't find anything hidden in it."
Wu Tingyun was suspicious for a while, and said, "Buy more saponins and sachets for Xiao Qi."
Xiao Wu thought of Xiao Qi who came to exchange messages with him with a stern face that day, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help grinning to both sides.Fortunately, he was still covering his face, so he could secretly laugh without being noticed by the prince.
"Thank you, master, for your concern. This subordinate will tell Xiaoqi the truth."
Wu Tingyun nodded, just as he wanted Xiao Wu to resign, he suddenly remembered another matter, and then asked: "The matter of private shipping in Taicang Prefecture before, how is it going?"
Brother Huang sent him to investigate the corruption of the Suzhou government. After he arrived in Suzhou, rumors of local merchants doing business with foreigners also reached his ears.Although this matter had nothing to do with him, he still kept an eye out and asked Xiao San to inquire about the situation.
"According to Xiaosan's report, the situation is true. Master, do you want to arrest these violators of the sea ban?"
"Not urgent."
Suzhou Prefecture has a vast land and belongs to Southern Zhili.As soon as he arrived here, he heard about the private shipping, and the news must have been known to everyone.Brother Huang has been paying attention to the movements of the Suzhou Mansion, so there is no reason why he should not know about this matter.
Since Brother Huang intends to turn a blind eye and close one eye to wait and see what happens, then he just pretends he has never heard of it.The world belongs to the emperor's brother. As King Qing, he knows very well what should be investigated and what should not be investigated.
Yao Qin returned to Zimingli with the goods smoothly, and Mu Qingtian packed up his clothes and came out to greet him in person.Yao Qin has satisfactorily completed all the things he ordered.
Mu Qingtian looked at Yao Qin's black and blue eyes because of his overnight journey, and felt both guilty and moved.He stepped forward and brushed the dust off Yao Qin's shoulders, looked up into Yao Qin's eyes seriously, and said, "Thank you for your hard work along the way."
Yao Qin was stunned for a moment, then looked away, and said, "My lord is too good."
There is no impurity in these eyes, they are clear and clear, just looking at him makes him feel ashamed.Mr. Mu said that he has a pair of honest eyes, perhaps because at that time, only the figure of the adult was reflected in his eyes.
Yao Qin didn't take credit, and quickly arranged rooms for the other five people before going to rest.
Mu Qingtian wanted to give Qin Qin a vacation, but he was rejected.He thought about it, and felt that using money as a reward was an insult to Yao Qin's sincerity, and finally decided to cook Yao Qin a meal.
"My lord, there is really no need for a gentleman to stay away from the kitchen." Yao Qin stood at the door of the kitchen and persuaded Mu Qingtian dumbfounded.
Fu Bao Fuyuan sat on the ground and hugged Mu Qingtian's legs, as if they would die if he stepped into the kitchen.
"Fu Bao Fu Yuan, let go!" Mu Qingtian said with wide eyes and bared teeth.
"Don't let me go! Young Master, if you want to go in, step over Fu Bao's body first!" Fu Bao raised his head and closed his eyes tightly, then opened his voice and shouted.
Standing not far away, Wu Tingyun watched the farce at the door of the kitchen, feeling a long-lost sense of loneliness in his heart.There are many people around him, from Xiaoyi to Xiaojiu, they are all the people he trusts the most, he shouldn't feel lonely.
In the end, under Fu Bao's "forced death", Mu Qingtian gave up the idea of rewarding Yao Qin by cooking.But in this case, what should he do to repay Yao Qin's kindness?
Yao Qin saw Mu Qingtian's entanglement, and after thinking for a while, he walked forward and said with a smile: "That day I saw the master painting in the study, and I liked it very much. I wonder if the master would like to give Yao Qin a calligraphy?"
"It's easy to say!" Mu Qingtian let out a long sigh of relief, laughed loudly and patted Yao Qin's back vigorously.
Who would have thought that he would travel back to ancient times. Fortunately, he learned some Chinese painting from the dean's grandfather, which is the only thing he can afford now.
After a day's rest, Mu Qingtian brought the five newcomers to work.With Li □□ including him, there are only 11 people in total now, and many rooms are empty.He didn't like to grow flowers. The flowers and plants in the backyard were left unattended, and they all withered, leaving a piece of mud.
Mu Qingtian asked them to use agricultural tools to open up the field, and then pour all the soaking water into it and mix well to fertilize it.Fu Bao Fuyuan also came to help after finishing the work in hand, and the originally deserted backyard suddenly became full of enthusiasm.
The five strong men felt hot, and after asking Mu Qingtian for approval, they took off their shirts and continued digging.Looking from a distance, the eyes are full of lean body and muscles covered with oil.
Wu Tingyun was almost blinded by this prostitution-like scene.Mu Qingtian is not tall, but standing next to five big guys, she looks even smaller...
"Shameless!" Wu Tingyun didn't know why he was angry, he glared at Mu Qingtian who was smiling happily, turned around and left.Every step is very heavy, and after a while, a cloud of dust is raised.
After ten days like this, Mu Qingtian has been doing this all the time, accumulating a lot of fertilizer, enough to cover the abandoned fields in Zimingli.
The time has come, it's time to show off your skills.
Mu Qingtian took out the compressed mask and the doubling potion from the system warehouse, and divided the doubling potion into two parts, one was sprinkled on the vegetables that Yao Qin bought and had already been sprinkled with fresh-keeping potion, and the other was sprinkled on the compressed mask superior.
Three sacks of vegetables suddenly became six sacks, and hundreds of compressed masks also doubled.
"Jingyun, are you there?"
Wu Tingyun was meditating, when he heard Mu Qingtian's voice outside the door, he withdrew his breath, put on his shoes, got out of bed and opened the door.
"It's so late, what's the matter?"
"Tingyun, you and Yaoqin are going up the mountain with me tonight. I need your help with something." Mu Qingtian looked back to both sides, and after confirming that no one was there, he flashed into Wu Tingyun's room.
Wu Tingyun raised his eyebrows, he didn't seem to let Mu Qingtian in, did he?It's quite self-conscious.
Mu Qingtian didn't want to look for Wu Tingyun at first, but after what happened last time, he vaguely felt that Wu Tingyun seemed to be watching him.If he went up the mountain with Yao Qin without telling the truth, it would probably increase Wu Tingyun's suspicion.Instead of sneaking around, it's better to ask Wu Tingyun to go with him in a fair and honest manner.
Anyway, no one knew what a compressed mask was, so even if he was discovered, he could still get away with it.
After explaining his intention, Wu Tingyun agreed to Mu Qingtian's request without any objection.Although it was a little unexpected that Mu Qingtian would come to him on his own initiative, it was also expected.No matter how stupid people are, they should have noticed, he didn't believe that Mu Qingtian hadn't doubted his identity.
"My lord, put on your night clothes." Wu Tingyun dug out one of his clothes from the box.
His actions at night are more conspicuous. He is not afraid of being exposed to Mu Qingtian, but he doesn't want to startle the snake and make Zhang Fu aware of it.
Mu Qingtian didn't hesitate, took the clothes and started changing in front of Wu Tingyun.
Unbelievably fair skin, a crescent-like waistline... Wu Tingyun's eyelids twitched, and he coughed softly, trying to cover it up, and turned around to stop looking at Mu Qingtian.
Disaster.Wu Tingyun suddenly thought of such a word.
"Jingyun, the clothes don't fit well." Mu Qingtian pulled the waistband of his trousers and tried to lift them up, but the trousers were still hanging on the ground.
How angry, why are they all so tall and I am so short.
Wu Tingyun turned his head, and within a moment, he turned back again, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it doesn't matter."
Mu Qingtian let out an "oh", and then asked with concern: "Tingyun, what's wrong with your eyes?"
"...the candles are too bright."
"Then let's order two less next time." Mu Qingtian nodded, "Let's find Yao Qin now, the sooner the better."
Wu Tingyun and Yao Qin each took a hoe, while Mu Qingtian carried a basket of vegetables and sneaked into the mountain south of Zimingli under the cover of night.
Mu Qingtian casually pointed to a piece of land, and Wu Tingyun and Yao Qin picked up their hoes and began digging.
"My lord, what are you going to do?" Yao Qin asked while standing on the ridge of the field wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Not only Yao Qin was curious, but Wu Tingyun also wanted to know what Mu Qingtian was up to late at night.
"You will know in a few days." Mu Qingtian smiled slyly, and the moonlight shining on his face added a sense of mystery.
He walked down to the ground, carefully took out a cloth bag from his arms and opened it.
Wu Tingyun was even more confused when he watched Mu Qingtian spread the white discs one after another on the ground.That thing looks like the toffee that is often eaten in the north, but why did Mu Qingtian bury the candy in the ground?
After putting away the compressed mask, Mu Qingtian poured out all the vegetables in the basket, and placed them on the compressed mask accurately one by one.Then fix it with soil, leaving a little gap, it will not be too loose, and the vegetables will not fall down.
Yao Qin had never seen this kind of farming method, and thought that Mu Qingtian didn't understand, so he kindly came up to remind him: "My lord, if you grow like this, the vegetables won't survive."
"Who said I'm going to grow vegetables?" Mu Qingtian raised the corner of his mouth.
Before dawn, Wu Tingyun and Yao Qin covered another layer of soil under Mu Qingtian's command, and buried all the vegetables in the ground.
With the donkey cart, Yao Qin took his people back to Fushoutang, loaded seven buckets of hogwash, and bought rice seeds under the introduction of the owner of Fushoutang.After carefully counting the tasks Mu Qingtian ordered for him, and after confirming that they were correct, Yao Qin asked one of the strong men to drive the donkey cart and returned to Zimingli in the dark.
