"Okay," Rong Xiaoyu gently stroked Ye's hair, "Let's go to Dezhou and have a look." Shen Bingning was like a cat, rubbing its owner's legs and fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up, they were already in Texas.
Shen Bingning really didn't believe how good the economy was here and how wealthy it was at first, but when she got off the carriage, it really hurt her eyes. There were many shops everywhere, and there were all kinds of things on the street.
There are people at various small stalls, there are many people buying things, many people selling things, and they are still bargaining from time to time. Look at one place
Whether it is developed, whether it is good, whether it is a good place to do business, first of all depends on the consumption situation of the people here. There is buying and selling, and there is a lot of transaction volume, so the economy here is really not low, Dongping Wang and others
They really found a good place for themselves, but I don’t know how poor their Jinzhou is.
They lived in Dezhou for about five or six days. Shen Bingning took Rong Xiaoyu and almost visited the entire Dezhou. However, within a few miles of Dezhou, they had not visited the surrounding areas.
, if they did all the shopping, they might have to stay for ten days and a half, but they don’t have that much time to stay for another ten days and a half.
In the past few days, Shen Bingning has really understood how rich this Texas is. No wonder King Dongping and Li Leya look arrogant. It is really easy for them to earn money. They can take money just sitting down to eat.
Yes, even though she has never been to the surrounding areas,
However, according to Rong Xiaoyu, it was no worse than Dezhou City. Although she didn't like Dongping Wang's family, she saw business opportunities and money here, so she had to think about it and bring Dezhou City to the city.
You have to earn back the money, but you can’t give Dong Wang Wang a cheap price.
"Let's go," Rong Xiaoyu lowered the curtain of the carriage and said to Mo Bai outside.
Mo Bai drove the carriage, looking good, eating well, and sleeping well, but soon he knew that his miserable days were coming. The carriage drove for about three days, and they finally arrived in Jinzhou.
The boundary of the country is over, but when you enter the city
Behind the door, Shen Bingning was a little dumbfounded. No, she was already petrified. You mean, this is your fiefdom. She pointed to a pile of things in front of the city that didn't know whether it was a mound or a house. And
Those humanoid monsters fucked by emaciated people.
"Is this a house? That's a person..."
"Yes," Rong Xiaoyu sighed softly, still so depressed.
Shen Bingning stepped forward and patted the soil on the wall, feeling that the wall seemed to be shaking.
"Can anyone live here?" She was really worried that if the wind blew, the wall would be blown down. Also, the soil here was almost all barren and nothing grew. She really didn't want to
I know what to say, "It's spring now and the flowers are blooming. Can you be more diligent and plant the seeds in the ground?"
"I don't have money to buy seeds, and even if I plant them, they won't grow. In many cases, I still can't get back the money from selling the seeds," Rong Xiaoyu lowered his eyes slightly and spoke quietly, there was always something that could be heard in his voice.
exclamation.
"How could this happen?" Shen Bingning ran to the side of the field. She squatted down and touched a handful of soil. After touching it, she discovered that it was all sand. She smelled it again and found that the soil here seemed to be made of sand.
It's really not easy to grow crops because it's acidic. The money you can get from selling the seeds is already pretty good, but 80% of the money will be lost, but she just doesn't understand why the soil here is sour.
This kind of soil is not suitable for growing food, especially sandy soil, but it can be used to grow sweet potatoes and peanuts. This kind of soil can be adjusted by certain things, but as far as these people know so far
, this soil may remain like this for a lifetime.
Rong Xiaoyu walked in, took her hand, patted the dirt on her hand, "Let's go have a rest first. If we have anything to do, we can talk about it after the rest, okay?"
"Okay," Shen Bingning also felt that her head hurt a little. She had to think about these things carefully, but when she arrived at the inn that Rong Xiaoyu mentioned, she really wanted to cry.
"Is this really where we live?" she asked, pointing to the thatched house in front of her. This was worse than the house outside. Is it exposed to the wind? Will it collapse?
"Yeah," Mo Bai had a bitter look on his face, but that's it, he had nothing to eat. When he said this, his head drooped. Now Shen Bingning finally understood why he was so unwilling.
That's the reason why he is willing to come. He is indeed too poor. He will definitely lose a few taels of meat when he goes back.
Shen Bingning walked in carefully. Fortunately, there were still a few beds inside. She was so tired that she lay on them without thinking too much and fell asleep. At least it was a shelter from the wind and rain, and at least there was a bed.
Sleep, at least not in prison
At the very least, she had the foresight to bring some dry food, otherwise, she really didn't know what to eat in this damn place.
And this place was even poorer than she imagined, especially since they had just come from Texas. They were afraid of comparison. They might not have felt anything at first, just a little poorer, but compared with Texas, it made sense.
It's a problem, and it's a huge problem. Even if she has a mountain of gold and silver, it's not enough to give it to this place. People charge money, and sometimes they pay it back, or they don't pay it back. Such a fiefdom
It's better not to have it, it's just a poverty-stricken county.
She tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Not to mention this kind of cover for Rong Xiaoyu, she herself couldn't bear it first.
It is not unreasonable for the palace to be so poor. To be honest, she really admires Rong Xiaoyu so much. Now she really feels that her husband is really not an ordinary person. If it were anyone else, he might have collapsed by now.
He can still support this poor county until now, but this is something that ordinary people cannot do.
The wind outside was blowing loudly. She opened her eyes and saw Rong Xiaoyu sitting on the side, flipping through a book. She raised her face and could see his hair hanging on his shoulders being blown by the outside.
The incoming wind rose and fell slightly, and she was suddenly moved. He seemed to be helping her block the wind.
"Wake up," Rong Xiaoyu put down the book and put his hand on her forehead, "Fortunately, it's not hot. I'll have a bowl of ginger soup and it will feel better."
Shen Bingning rubbed her eyes. No wonder she felt a little uncomfortable. She might have caught a cold. However, ginger soup was the last thing she liked to drink. It was not delicious at all.
