Chapter 54 The semen female partner chooses to farm (4)
[Ding—Exploring the land of the Southern Barbarians, for each county explored, a map of that county will be rewarded. ]
The system issued a task to her in due course.
But a map? If you want it, won’t she buy it?
The map of Furong County in my hand was bought with money along with the geography.
The system gives options, accept the task or reject it?
Xu Yin thought that if she couldn't finish it, her energy points would not be deducted, and the progress bar would not be set back, so she simply accepted it, in case she finished it accidentally.
[Ding——Trigger long-term task: build a home]
I just accepted the mission to explore Nanman, and a new mission popped up.
No specific requirements were announced, and no rewards were given after completing the tasks. In short, it was quite confusing.
Maybe the dog system was triggered again, Xu Yin ignored it.
She continued to think about Furong County, which really resembled Hunan Province, with similar climate, similar crops, and even the dialects spoken by the locals were somewhat similar.
The only shortcoming is that the specialty products are not as rich as Tongcheng, but it is understandable, after all, there is a long river of history.
If Furong County is really the Hunan Province of later generations...
A map of China in the shape of a rooster flashed in Xu Yin's mind, and she almost laughed out loud with joy.
Nanman co-authored it in the Guangdong and Guangxi areas!
Oh my god, I was so worried all the way, why didn't I think of it earlier?
If she didn't wear it this time, she would want to go south for a walk.
Now it's okay, I'm traveling at public expense, with full bodyguards and nannies to serve me. When I get to the destination, I have my own big villa (Prince Jinnan's Mansion) where I can stay as long as I want.
Of course, you can't leave the fief if you don't want to live there.
It seems a bit frustrating, and the range of activities is limited.
But the snail shell can still be used as a dojo. The Nanman is so big that it is enough for her to move around.
What's more, compared to the turbulent situation in Beijing, the Nanman, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, is more suitable for her to cling to a small life and not be cannon fodder.
After figuring it out, Xu Yin was completely free.
Early the next morning, I took out the banknotes at the bottom of the box. When Grandma Feng accused her of using the dowry money arbitrarily, she left two of the five hundred taels denominations in case of unexpected needs, and planned to exchange the rest for supplies.
"Chunlan, you take a few boys to buy grain, grain seeds, and seeds of vegetables and fruits. You need to harvest new crops this year, so that there will be no insects after a year. If you don't have any, old grain will do."
"Xia Zhu, go buy poultry and pick out more eggs, ducks and eggs."
There were two maids left who were sent by her to purchase cotton and cotton cloth.
The cotton needs to have cotton seeds, and the cotton cloth needs to be thick and fine. After that, they have to look for silkworms.
"Qiu Shuang, your hometown is Linhai County. Do you know silkworms? They can spin silk, make cocoons and then weave silk?"
"Know!"
Although Qiu Shuang didn't know why the girl wanted to buy silkworms, she still nodded obediently.
Xu Yin taught her how to select strong silkworm babies. When she met someone who knew how to raise silkworms, she hired him with a high salary.
When the maids left one after another, Xu Yin handed Nanny Feng three thousand taels:
"Mommy, please find someone you trust to help me replace them with fishing nets, fishing rods, and a batch of iron sheets."
The latter is the important point.
Iron has so many uses. In addition to improving farm tools, she also wants to build a boat, a patrol and fishing boat that can withstand weak typhoons.
Aunt Feng was startled: "Girl, this piece of iron..."
"It doesn't matter if you can get the best one if you can't."
Yanhua does not allow private trading of iron tools. Once discovered, the crime of exile will begin.
However, there were many princes and nobles who bought and sold ironware privately, and the court did not see much control over it.
Xu Yin sent his subordinates to go shopping and did not deliberately conceal the matter. He only concealed the purchase of iron.
Grandma Feng came back and said that it was hard to buy iron, so she had to go through a lot of trouble to get a hundred kilograms from the black market.
The density of iron is high. One hundred kilograms of iron is actually the size of nine footballs. Xu Yin dispersed it and hid it in a large number of materials, making it difficult for others to detect it.
At this time, she was glad that she was not in the future, and would not beep when passing the security check.
Moreover, which of the palace's chariots and soldiers guarding the city gate dared to poke their spears into the carriage?
But just one hundred kilograms of iron cost her one-third of her banknotes.
Soon, the news that the future princess had spent all her dowry money spread among the palace staff.
It's not that they are gossiping, but what a dowry means to a woman, not only women know, but men also know.
After all, who doesn’t have a mother? Who’s mother would use dowry as a last resort?
This wealthy lady from the prime minister's residence usually spends money lavishly. On her way south, she actually spent all the ten thousand taels of silver notes at the bottom of the box.
This is not ten taels or one hundred taels, but a full ten thousand taels!
Oh my god, it’s terrible how much money a woman spends! Who can afford to marry someone who spends ten thousand taels in two months?
Oh, someone is getting married soon! The emperor acted as a matchmaker, and they got married as soon as they arrived in the fiefdom...
By the way, why would the emperor give such a woman to his prince? Was he really not sent to disrupt the prince's palace and give the prince a headache?
I couldn't help but cast infinite sympathy on their prince.
Yan Kejin: "..."
Xu Yin didn't know these things, but even if she knew, she would laugh them off.
Isn’t the dowry just a way for the married woman’s family to straighten her back and live a better life?
She has always believed that money is for spending, not for saving. Why bother if you keep the ready-made dowry money and don't use it, but your life is tight and unsatisfactory?
From Beijing to Furong County, the people around her were sent around by her.
When I first left the capital, it was just a small fuss. Several counties came down to gather ten carriages.
Upon entering Furong County, except for the emergency one thousand taels of silver notes at the bottom of the box, all the rest were taken out to exchange for supplies, and carts of rice, flour, grain and oil, cotton, silkworms, and various seeds were brought back...
Lin Linzong added a dozen more carriages, twenty or thirty mule carts loaded with grain, and the coachmen alone hired a lot of people.
Fortunately, there were soldiers from the royal palace holding the battle. Although some people coveted it, they did not dare to act rashly. Otherwise, this road would never be so stable.
Everyone in the royal family secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, the border between Nanman and Furong County was right in front of them. Otherwise, would they still have to buy it? The future princess would be too good at spending money, so they were worried about the prince.
Yan Kejin heard the report from his subordinates and learned that Xu Yin not only bought grain, but also bought grain seeds; not only bought cotton, but also brought cotton seeds; not only bought silk brocade, but also bought mulberry silkworms, and a bunch of
There are all kinds of vegetable and fruit seeds that even the secret guards can't identify... His eyes are thoughtful.
In fact, after the fiefdom was granted, he sent people to collect supplies from all over Yanhua and transport them to Nanman.
It's just done in the name of traffickers and traveling merchants, and not many people know about it.
There were only a few carriage luggage transported from the palace in Beijing.
I heard earlier that his brainless princess sent people to buy goods wherever she went, and stocked up ten carriages of goods along the way. She also thought that she had believed the rumors about the Nanman and was afraid that she would live a hard life there.
Now it turns out that she is not stupid at all. Would a stupid person think of hoarding seeds? She would even consider silkworms?
Yan Kejin's lips curved into an interesting smile: Whether he is really stupid or fake, you will know soon.
