Pei Lin didn't sleep well all night, because his highness went to be a trafficker, it was his negligence, and he didn't take good care of his highness.

Before dawn, he heard Xiao Yu go out in the dark, imagining His Highness's golden body carrying a heavy oil tank for such a long distance, he felt a needle pricking his back, how could he lie down.Struggling to get up, Xiao Yu greeted Ji Hai as soon as he reached the door.He stood by the door for a long time, but he still couldn't catch up. With his current situation, he could only add confusion to His Highness.

Xiao Yu didn't come back until it was three poles high in the sun.Pei Linzhi was worried about Xiao Yu and struggled to get up, wanting to help with the cooking.It turned out, to my embarrassment, that he couldn't do it.

Before Xiao Yu had an accident, Pei Linzhi was the master of the Duke Huguo's Mansion.His grandfather followed the former emperor to conquer the country and made great achievements in battle, and he was granted the title of Duke Protector. His father followed the unsuspecting emperor Jingping to put down the chaos in Xidi and sacrificed for the savior.

Pei Linzhi became the only male of the Pei family and inherited the title of Duke of Protecting the Country.Emperor Jing Ping raised him together with his children, so Pei Linzhi grew up with Xiao Yu, who was two years younger than him, and they had a very strong relationship.

After Xiao Yu was deposed, Pei Linzhi took the initiative to ask to accompany him to the south, tantamount to giving up everything he had.This became a thorn in the side of some people, worried that Xiao Yu would have a chance to make a comeback, so they planned to kill the root and get rid of it together.In fact, as far as Pei Linzhi is concerned, Duke Protector has only a false title left without any real power.

So Pei Linzhi, like Xiao Yu, was pampered and pampered since he was a child. The only hardship he suffered was practicing martial arts since he was a child. After he was 16, he went to the Gyeonggi Garrison Camp to practice for two years, but he never went to the kitchen.

When Xiao Yu came back, he found thick smoke coming from the roof of his house. He thought the house was on fire, so he ran away quickly. When he got home, he found that it was Pei Linzhi who was lighting the fire behind the stove, and the house was filled with lingering smoke. Qingyan, Pei Linzhi coughed while poking the stove, Xiao Yu asked: "Rinzhi, what are you doing? Poof—" He couldn't help laughing as soon as he finished speaking.

Pei Linzhi's handsome face was like a cat's face at the moment, with a lot of pot ashes on it, but he himself was completely ignorant. He raised his head and looked at Xiao Yu, and said with a sigh of relief: "Hey—you come back—cough cough—"

Xiao Yu quickly put down the basket and helped Pei Linzhi up: "Didn't I let you have a good rest, why are you getting up and working again. Be careful not to tear the wound, go back and lie down."

Ji Hai came in after him, seeing Xiao Yu holding the tall Pei Linzhi, he had no expression on his face at first, but after seeing Pei Linzhi's face clearly, he couldn't hold back, and quickly turned his face away to snicker.

Pei Linzhi's ears were sharp, and when he heard Ji Hai's laughter, he asked, "Is there something on my face?"

Xiao Yu said, "It's a little dusty, I'll wipe it off for you later."

Pei Linzhi raised his hand and wiped his face, but the result became darker and darker, Xiao Yu couldn't help laughing out loud: "Don't do it, the more you do it, the more you look like a cat."

Pei Linzhi quickly withdrew his hand, and found that his hands were stained with ash from the bottom of the pot at some point, and he was a little embarrassed: "I want to cook for you."

Xiao Yu nodded: "I guessed it. But you really don't need to worry about it, I'll just come. I thought someone set the house on fire."

"I'm not very good at it."

"It's not easy to do, and I learned it with great difficulty."

Only then did Pei Linzhi think about the business: "How is the situation?"

Speaking of shopping, Xiao Yu was delighted: "It's okay. It's sold to a grain and oil store, at six cents per catty. The price is a bit low, but this is a no-cost business, so it's not impossible to do it."

"Only six Wen?" Pei Linzhi said in surprise, His Highness has worked so hard to sell Liu Wen for a catty, which is too cheap.

Xiao Yu said: "It's not expensive, but it's good if you can sell it. After all, people here don't know about coconut oil yet."

Pei Linzhi remembered that he was well-clothed and well-fed since he was a child, but now he is so tired for such a small amount of money, and he felt extremely bitter: "Your Majesty has worked hard."

Xiao Yu smiled: "It's okay. It's a very novel experience."

Looking at him, Pei Linzhi suddenly felt that he didn't know him well enough. The emperor probably would not have thought that His Highness would be such a flexible and flexible person. The extinguished fire in Pei Linzhi's heart suddenly burned again, no matter what the situation was , Your Highness must not be a fish in a pond.All he has to do is to protect His Highness well, and leave the rest to time.

Xiao Yu didn't know what Pei Linzhi was thinking. He said, "I've taken some medicine for you. In addition to oral medicine, there are also medicines for external use. You are in good health. After two days of rest, you can get out of bed and move around. It’s better to lie still. Don’t worry, I’m at home.”

Pei Linzhi nodded: "Okay." After experiencing this accident, Xiao Yu has become more stable. His tenacity is stronger than what he thought, so he should trust him.

When Xiao Yu came out, he saw that Ji Hai had already taken off his clothes, checking them carefully, for fear of damaging them or getting them dirty.Xiao Yu took out the sackcloth from the back basket: "Take this piece of cloth and let someone make clothes for you and your sister."

Ji Hai was stunned. It turned out that the cloth was bought for himself. He was so frightened that he took two steps back, waved his hands and shook his head, expressing his disapproval.

Xiao Yu said: "Take it. In the future, you and your sister will work with me to pay for the cloth. I will take care of the food."

Ji Hai stared at him wide-eyed, as if he didn't believe that there was such a good thing in the world. Not only did he have food to eat, but he also had clothes and shoes to wear.Xiao Yu said: "Look, I have so many coconuts here, I'm sure I can't finish them all by myself, so I need your help, and I need you to sell oil."

Ji Hai stood for a long time before reaching out to take the piece of cloth, making a gesture to kneel down again, but Xiao Yu grabbed his arm to stop him, so he took a step back, bent over and bowed, turned around to leave, but was stopped by Xiao Yu again. Xiao Yu called out: "Wait a minute, take this bunch of oily fruits back for the fish to eat. Come over and help me after you have eaten, and I will continue to work here."

Ji Hai nodded, took the things and ran quickly, the straw sandals were hanging on his shoulders, and his feet were still bare.

Xiao Yu decocted the medicine for Pei Linzhi first, and when sending the medicine, he took a bunch of sugar oil fruits and left a bunch for Meng Sigui.

Pei Linzhi was very surprised when he saw this bunch of sweet oil fruits: "Does your lord treat me like a child?"

Xiao Yu smiled: "The medicine is too bitter, this oily fruit is a bit sweet, and it will relieve the bitterness for you. It's just not too sweet."

Pei Linzhi looked at Xiao Yu: "Has the Lord already used it?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "Of course, I ate it, this is for you, eat it." After speaking, he turned and left.

"Thank you, sir!" Pei Linzhi looked at Xiao Yu's back, and remembered what good things the emperor or queen had rewarded His Highness in the palace before, and he had to leave some for him. His Highness, when he came here, the conditions were so difficult. , still did not forget him, how could he not be moved.

After Meng Si came back, he happily ate the sugar oil fruit Xiao Yu gave him, and said: "Last year when my father was chopping firewood on the mountain, he came across a beeswax and dug a large piece of beeswax. It was so sweet, so sweet. I've never eaten something so sweet in my life." He said while sucking his saliva.

Xiao Yu's heart moved: "Do you know where there are bumblebees on the mountain?"

Meng Sigui said: "There are a lot of them on the mountain, and it's very scary. If you don't pay attention, you will be stung. When my father was getting beeswax, his face was swollen for three days, like a pig's head, hahaha."

Xiao Yu said, "Take me up the mountain to find Bumblebee in a few days."

Meng Sigui's eyes widened: "Your Majesty, do you want honey too?"

Xiao Yu nodded: "Well, I want to get some." He is not only digging honey, but mainly looking for bees, and plans to raise bees by himself. There is no winter in Yazhou, and there are flowers all year round. It should not be difficult to raise bees. If you eat it, you can sell it for money. With such a shortage of sugar, honey must not be cheap, but you have to prepare a few sealed boxes first.

Meng Sigui quickly waved his hand: "No, Sir, you will be stung."

"I have a way."

Ji Hai, who has been quiet all this time, said, "I'll go."

Xiao Yu smiled at Ji Hai: "Okay, let's go together."

Looking at Xiao Yu's smile, Ji Hai blushed again. Mr. Lang is good-looking, and he looks even better when he smiles.

After refining coconut oil for a few days, Xiao Yu went to the city again.Shopkeeper Hu did not bargain with him this time, but accepted the [-] catties of coconut oil he sent, and said he wanted as much as he wanted.Coconut oil is selling better than expected. For the middle class, flax oil is too expensive. Coconut oil just meets their needs.

Xiao Yu sent over a hundred catties of coconut oil refined at home.

In the end, shopkeeper Hu discussed with Xiao Yu, wanted his oil refining formula, and was willing to pay a high price to buy it.Xiao Yu thought for a while, and then agreed to sell Fangzi. He knew that the other party must have tried to refine coconut oil, but he was not as good as his own. To make more money from coconuts, it is better to sell them for emergency.

The two sides bargained, and Xiao Yu sold Fang Zi to shopkeeper Hu at a price of eight taels of silver.

Eight taels of silver is equivalent to two years' income of a middle-class family. Xiao Yu can completely renovate the house with this amount of money.

Pei Linzhi was a little surprised when he learned that he had sold the oil refining recipe, after all, it was the capital for their current livelihood.

Xiao Yu explained: "This coconut oil is easy to refine, and shopkeeper Hu will figure out the way sooner or later. Besides, refining oil is too hard, I don't plan to be an oil salesman for the rest of my life."

Pei Linzhi smiled: "Of course Mr. Lang is not an oil seller."

This is the first time Xiao Yu has seen Pei Linzhi's smile. His smile is so pretty, like a spring flower. Xiao Yu suddenly thought of this line of lyrics. He blinked and calmed down: "Now that we are rich, we should I have to ask someone to repair the house. I have to ask someone to plant rice, so we don’t need to buy rice to eat in the future.”

Outside this house is a huge yard with fields and land. Although the house is abandoned, the land is not abandoned. The nearby villagers have been planting it, because the mature land is easier to take care of than the newly cultivated land.When Xiao Yu came, the field had just been harvested, and the villagers stopped planting when they saw that the land was owned.

Xiao Yu planned to continue planting. Yazhou can produce three crops a year. This season is just the time to sow the third season of rice, and it can be harvested after the beginning of spring.But he doesn't know how to farm, so he has to ask someone to help him.

Pei Linzhi's body is much better, and he can go down to the ground for activities: "I will repair the house, and my body is already in good health."

Xiao Yu squinted at him: "Can you still repair houses?"

Pei Linzhi was choked, and he blushed and said dully, "No. I can learn."

Xiao Yu smiled brightly: "Even if you are willing to learn, you still have to find a master to teach. I have to find a master first to understand the market, and how to practice is better."

Seeing Xiao Yu's smiling face, Pei Linzhi felt a lot more relaxed.He found that after coming to Yazhou, Xiao Yu had really changed a bit. In the past, he would look forward and backward in everything he did, think a lot, and even ask for his own opinion. Now he does whatever he thinks of, with a confident look.

Probably after leaving the capital, he no longer had to think about the views of the emperor and empress, and he relaxed completely. He was very pleased that His Highness had made such a change. His Highness should be so confident and courageous.

Just when Xiao Yu was about to repair the house, the sky suddenly changed, first it was extremely hot, and feathery high clouds appeared in the sky.An experienced local old man said that a hurricane was coming, and the villagers felt like they were facing a formidable enemy. Many people went to the roof to strengthen their thatched roof.

Xiao Yu was a little dumbfounded. Typhoons usually occur frequently in summer, and very few in autumn. It's almost the ninth month of the lunar calendar, and there are still typhoons.The point is that his dilapidated house can't keep out the wind and rain.

Xiao Yu hurriedly called Pei Linzhi, climbed up to the roof, and re-fixed the remaining grass roof with rattan to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.

The strong wind came along with the night, and it came from an unknown corner. There were whining sounds everywhere, like ghosts crying and wolves howling, and the sound of "cracking" and "clicking" continued continuously.From time to time, leaves, grass, branches and other things fell into Xiao Yu's bedroom from the half-broken roof. This room could not treat people at all, so he moved to Pei Linzhi's room.

It was only after Pei Linzhi got out of bed that he realized that Xiao Yu's room was open-air, so he wanted to change rooms with Xiao Yu, but Xiao Yu didn't agree, and said that the roof would be repaired in a few days, and he preferred his own room.Judging from the structure of the house, Xiao Yu's room was indeed the master's bedroom, and Pei Linzhi didn't insist on changing rooms, but the hurricane came before the house was repaired.

The strong wind was rampant, whirling and running around, as if it wanted to take away everything in this world.In the darkness, only a "pop" sound was heard, and Xiao Yu guessed that a certain grass roof had been torn off.And there was more than one sound, the sound came one after another.

Xiao Yu sighed: "It is estimated that except for this one, all the other places are almost lost." They only reinforced this intact one, and did not make much progress in the other ones.

Pei Linzhi said: "It's good that this room is intact." Let's avoid tonight for now.

In the middle of the night, it began to rain cats and dogs, accompanied by great thunder and lightning.At that time Xiao Yu was lying on the bed, only to hear a loud "crash", and the world was illuminated into daylight, which startled him, and the next second, Pei Linzhi hugged him.

Xiao Yu: "!" Could it be that this big man is afraid of thunder and lightning.

Pei Linzhi put his arms around him and pressed his head into his arms: "Your Highness, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Xiao Yu: "..." He is not afraid of thunder and lightning, but he soon realized that the original owner should be afraid. What a big man, why is a big man afraid of thunder and lightning?

The rumbling thunder seemed to explode directly on the roof, and Xiao Yu could clearly feel the ground trembling.Pei Linzhi covered his ears with his hands: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's fine."

Xiao Yu really felt that he treated himself like a child, so he took Pei Linzhi's hand off and said, "I'm not afraid."

Thunder sounded at the same time, swallowing his voice.Pei Linzhi didn't hear his protest, and covered his hands back again.
