At the beginning, I was a rich female prisoner
Chapter 192 Potato and Sweet Potato Seedlings
"Good senior sister, you are now practicing the parchment scroll that the master gave you. The master asked me to watch you practice." Wuming said like a little adult.
Yu Yunxin didn't say anything, and directly ordered several guards in the mansion to carry a few boxes onto the carriage. These were beef jerky instant noodles specially made by Yu Yunxin, as well as fruit wine and a few jars of Shaodaozi she made. She was going to give them to Si Niang.
In the corner of the kitchen, she saw two baskets of sprouted potatoes and sweet potatoes and said, "I almost forgot, these two are good things, someone come and load these two baskets into the carriage."
"Senior sister, what is this? There are sprouts growing on the clod of earth?" Wuming asked.
"You'll know later, let's go." Yu Yunxin said as she took a piece of beef jerky and handed it to Wuming.
Wuming took the beef jerky and started eating: "Senior sister, why is this beef jerky so spicy after eating it?" He kept fanning his mouth with his hands while speaking.
Yu Yunxin smiled and said, "This is a new flavor that I asked the chef in our mansion to make using the chili peppers I bought at the ghost market. Don't eat too much, kid, or your mouth will become like a wax sausage." After saying that, she walked over and asked someone to bring a sweet bowl of milk for Wuming to drink.
Wuming felt better after drinking half a bowl of milk and said, "Is there anything that's not spicy?"
Yu Yunxin picked up another bag of five-spice flavor, opened it, took a piece and started eating, and handed the rest to Wuming.
Wuming took the beef jerky, took a bite, and stuffed the rest into his arms, saying, "Thank you, Senior Sister. I'll give Master a taste when he comes back."
"You kid, you are really filial to your master." Yu Yunxin said while touching Wuming's bald head.
When she left the house, she looked back and noticed that the people in the house had changed. There were more than a dozen guards, and even six people were standing on the roof of the main courtyard. She looked at Lian Qiao and Li Ma who came over and asked, "Why have so many people changed in the house?"
"Didn't you ask them to work at Pinyuxuan, Linglong Pavilion, and Xianzhi Pavilion? The prince saw that there was no one in the mansion, so he arranged a few more people." Nanny Li replied, "Princess, are you going out?"
Yu Yunxin replied: "Yes! I will come back after seeing Si Niang off."
"Princess, please let Lian Qiao go with you!" After saying this, Nanny Li asked Lian Qiao to help Yu Yunxin get into the carriage.
The carriage was driven by Bai Hu alone, and the five little ones followed him outside the carriage. Yu Yunxin couldn't waste time in the carriage. Under Wuming's guidance, Yu Yunxin sat cross-legged in the carriage and used the inner strength and mental method on the sheepskin scroll. Flowers bloomed, and the qi sank into the heart and flowers bloomed. As soon as she used the inner strength, she felt that her lower body was not so painful. Could this inner strength have this effect? Yu Yunxin was very puzzled.
When the carriage reached the outskirts of West City, Yu Yunxin was about to get off the carriage when Lian Qiao immediately stopped her and said, "Princess, you should still wear this veil! You see, it matches your clothes very well. Besides, it's been very windy outside West City these days, so it might rain in the next two days."
Yu Yunxin looked back at Mi Li, nodded, took it and put it on. Lian Qiao got off the carriage first and supported Yu Yunxin. She knew that the prince had been holding her when she got on and off the carriage these days, so now she had to support her own princess.
Yu Yunxin wanted to refuse, but Lian Qiao was too enthusiastic and she didn't feel like refusing. She let Lian Qiao help her get off the carriage. An ordinary carriage on the official road stopped under a pavilion ten miles into the city.
"I thought you wouldn't come to see me off." Si Niang was sitting in the carriage and saw Yu Yunxin coming, so she jumped off.
"How could that be? I've prepared some dry food for you." Yu Yunxin said with a smile, and asked Lian Qiao and Bai Hu to move all kinds of dried meat and Shaodaozi wine into Si Niang's carriage.
"Are you alone? Without a bodyguard?" Yu Yunxin said as she saw that there was no one in the carriage.
"I'm good at fighting, so why do I need a bodyguard? Besides, a person can go fast or slow if he wants. It doesn't matter. I've been waiting for more than 20 years. There's no need to rush. It's just a day or two on the road. But you have to take care of yourself when I'm not in the capital in the future." Si Niang looked at Yu Yunxin and said.
Yu Yunxin smiled when she heard this: "You talked about how you took care of me in the capital, and I put the money under the dried meat. Don't drink all the time, and keep an eye on the carriage and property. I heard that Xizhou is in chaos."
Upon hearing this, Si Niang laughed and said, "Okay, don't send me off. It's so heartless." After that, she waved to Yu Yunxin, turned around and jumped into the carriage. Then Si Niang said, "Gee," and the carriage drove away to the west.
"Princess, let's go back to the mansion!" Lian Qiao stepped forward and reminded softly. After hearing this, Yu Yunxin shook her head gently and said firmly: "This princess does not want to go back to the mansion for the time being, so let's go to my Dongjiao Manor first. I haven't been there for several days, and I don't know what the situation is there now."
"Senior Sister, you actually have your own manor?" Wuming asked curiously as he stepped into the carriage.
"Of course!" Yu Yunxin replied proudly, and began to introduce her manor to Wuming in detail, "In addition to the manor, I also have a fairly large medicine manor." After that, her face was filled with pride. Then, Yu Yunxin enthusiastically told Wuming about the various interesting things and beautiful scenery in the manor, which made Wuming listen with great interest and full of expectations and yearning for this Dongjiao manor.
"That's great! Can I study medicine? My master is never around. He always just throws me a medical or martial arts book and leaves. I only know the names of many medicinal herbs but don't know what they look like!" Wuming said with a look of grievance.
"Of course. If you are interested, you can go there every day. It's no problem if you want to stay overnight. Moreover, you can also ask Nanny Li and Lian Qiao to teach you some pharmacology and acupuncture techniques." Yu Yunxin replied.
Upon hearing the news, Wuming was extremely excited and happily jumped into the carriage, while Yu Yunxin was carefully supported by Lianqiao and got into the carriage.
When they arrived at Dongjiao Manor, they found that it had undergone tremendous changes. After a few days, the flowers and plants in the garden were neatly planted, and each piece of land was clearly marked with the name of the planted flowers. Yu Yunxin was very satisfied when she saw all this. She didn't expect the refugees here to be so attentive and considerate.
Huatian now lives next to the soap factory, which has been completed. A man with a hurried look walked out of the factory quickly. This man was Li Ye. When Li Ye saw Yu Yunxin, he hurried forward and said respectfully: "Princess, the soap and lipstick you need are all produced here. The palace maids and eunuchs in the mansion are also here to supervise the construction, so you can rest assured. I have specially assigned each process to different people to prevent someone from stealing my skills."
Yu Yunxin looked around and saw that the factory was a spacious courtyard with five large courtyards. She walked around and found that every production process, whether it was soap or lipstick, was in order. The outermost courtyard was used as a large warehouse, where all goods were gathered and then transported to the city before going down the mountain every day. Li Ye was responsible for shipping and material dispatching. He was so busy all day that he could hardly touch the ground.
"You've worked so hard these past few days." Yu Yunxin looked at Li Ye, who was sweating profusely, and asked softly.
"It's not hard. I just moved here these few days and there are all kinds of things to deal with, so I'm quite busy. In two days, when everything is arranged, I won't be as flustered as I am now." Li Ye replied with a smile.
Yu Yunxin listened and nodded. She was secretly glad that if there were not so many people in the mansion to help, she alone would not be able to manage so many workshops. Now she was planning to open another meat jerky processing factory, but now the mansion was short of manpower. It seemed that this plan had to be put on hold for the time being.
After Yu Yunxin took Wuming to visit the flower fields, soap and lipstick factories, they came to the farm. Compared with other places, this place seemed more empty. Since it was spring, many open spaces were used to raise livestock.
"Senior Sister, look over here, there are more than twenty cows! And there are more than fifty sheep over there. Wow, are there deer over there? Let me count... there are actually more than ten of them!" Wuming said excitedly. It was the first time he saw so many cows, sheep and deer, and his eyes were flashing with excitement.
"Let's go, there are rabbits in the wooden shed over there, let's go take a look." Yu Yunxin pointed in the direction of the rabbit shed and walked towards it with Wuming. There were many kinds of rabbits here, and they were colorful. White rabbits were the least numerous, but their cages were the cleanest and tidiest.
"Wow, what cute little rabbits! Senior sister, can you give me one?" Wuming looked at the cute rabbits and asked happily.
"What do you, a boy, need a rabbit for? When I have time one day, I will go to the royal hunting ground and catch a little tiger for you. When it grows up, it can become your mount. Just think how majestic it will be. It's like a ferocious beast. It can not only protect you, but also make you look more majestic." Yu Yunxin said to Wuming with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Wuming was extremely excited, and immediately came to Yu Yunxin's side. He cutely pulled the hem of her aqua blue brocade skirt, and said coquettishly, "Senior Sister, you must not break your promise!" His eyes were shining with anticipation, as if he had already seen himself riding the little tiger majestically.
"I won't forget. I'll treat you to roasted rabbit today." Yu Yunxin asked Zhao, who was in charge of the rabbit cages, to catch two rabbits and send them to the car. Zhao was the best at raising small animals among the refugees. The golden pheasants, pheasants and rabbits here were all given to her family.
Princess, I'll find you some pheasant eggs and pheasants. Although they are kept in cages, I go to the mountains to find insects and termites for them to eat so that they can lay eggs." Zhao said, holding a basket of pheasant eggs.
"Well, put them in my carriage when the time comes." Yu Yunxin said, looking at the basket full of pheasant eggs. She also thought about the space in her ring, so she could bring some more back this time.
These pheasants were mostly hunted by the brothers of the medicine shop in the mountains and forests, and some were bought from hunters from various places. These game were also supplied to Zuixianlou and Mingyanglou. With these supplies, the business of the two restaurants was much better than before. Of course, Nangong Lin also secretly placed some chickens and rabbits raised in the space in the two restaurants.
After having the space, Yu Yunxin also wants to open a meat jerky processing factory, so that more people can eat meat jerky and she can also make money.
After Yu Yunxin showed Wuming around all the places, she found a few experienced farmers. They carefully planted the potatoes and sweet potatoes she bought from the ghost market in pots.
"Princess, these are called potatoes and sweet potatoes. One lump of earth and one pot. What should I do if there are too many seedlings?" asked an older farmer puzzledly.
"Then move the seedlings again! Wait until they sprout and then sow them in the ground. I estimate that these seeds can plant about three or four acres of land, and we can have two crops a year." Yu Yunxin said as she and the old farmers turned the pots and planted the sprouting potatoes.
"This thing can actually be grown two to three times a year? Is that true?" Another old farmer couldn't help but interrupt, his face full of surprise.
Yu Yunxin smiled and nodded to show her agreement, then said, "That's right, you need to keep a portion of the first batch, and the rest can be used as seeds. You will understand after sowing for another season. Before planting again, you need to apply some fertilizer to the grass. If you have enough time, you can go to the mountain to sweep up some leaves and cover the soil evenly with them."
The old farmer responded respectfully: "Okay, we will all follow the princess' instructions."
Although some people did not understand this operation, since Yu Yunxin was not only the princess, but also knew that Princess Xingguo had developed a second crop of rice in Nanling County, how could they dare to raise any objections? So everyone had to obey orders.
"Senior Sister, can these clods of earth be eaten now? How do they taste?" Wuming asked curiously while turning the basin over.
"You can't eat them now. They have just sprouted. How can you eat them? After harvesting the first batch next year, I will make a few for you to try." Yu Yunxin answered patiently.
"Sister, this manor is so great! By the way, is your medicine shop here?" Wuming asked curiously.
"That's right. I'll take you there after we've planted all these seeds. Look, there's an open space over there where we can continue practicing our Chakram techniques." Yu Yunxin answered as she busily planted the last sweet potato in a huge flowerpot. After all the seeds were properly planted, she carefully instructed, "Remember to move these flowerpots into a well-ventilated room and water them every two days, but don't overdo it. If the seedlings are growing vigorously, you can transplant them, but be sure to protect the original root system. Only by nurturing the seedlings to be stronger in the pots will the survival rate be higher when they are planted in the field."
“Please rest assured, Princess. We will follow your instructions carefully and take good care of these seedlings to ensure they grow healthily.” The head of the farm promised solemnly.
Yu Yunxin watched everyone move the flower pots safely into the house. She felt a little relieved and then led Wuming to the medicine store.
As soon as he entered the medicine shop, Wuming's eyes were immediately attracted by the various rare medicinal materials drying in front of him. The master in charge of drying the medicines enthusiastically introduced the precious medicinal materials gathered from all over the world to Wuming one by one.
