Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

However, to their surprise, when they went to the village to collect the wolfberry bark, the villagers were so happy to hear that the bark could be sold for money that they went to the fields, hillsides, ditches and other places to get it.

In addition, they were diligent. They went out before dawn every day and came back very late. Therefore, they were able to harvest a lot in a short period of time, and there were several piles in the yard.

"Master, do you really want us to make paper?" Gongsun Cheng asked in a hoarse voice.

"Why, don't you want to?"

"No, no, no, I am willing to do so, but papermaking is too precious."

“No matter how precious it is, it is just a skill. It is valuable only if it can make paper. Otherwise, it is useless.”

"That is to say, once the master allows us to participate in papermaking, then we will know how paper is made."

"You want to betray me?"

"Pfft!"

Gongsun Cheng didn't expect his master to say this. He was so frightened that he fell to his knees.

Gongsun Jing, Gongsun Shi and Nini beside them also knelt down.

"I dare not. Since we have already acknowledged our master, we will not harbor any rebellious thoughts."

"That's it. What's wrong with me telling you how to make paper?"

When Gongsun Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but sigh at his master's generosity.

If they really get the papermaking technique and run away and hide it in another place, the master will be unable to do anything to them.

After all, no matter how powerful the master is, if they really want to hide, they are sure that the master will not be able to find them.

But he also felt lucky that he met his master when he was desperate, and Nini was rescued.

"Okay, here are five hundred taels. Use them first and buy some quicklime. Soak the bark for two months."

"what!"

Look, Gongsun Cheng’s eyebrows are all furrowed.

"If you have any difficulties, just tell me."

"Master, this much bark will need to be soaked in water for two months. Not only will it require a lot of water, but it will also be too small to soak in the yard. In addition, we will need to buy a lot of large vats."

After listening to Gongsun Cheng's words, Li Mengyue realized that she had overlooked a problem.

That is, papermaking does require a lot of water, the process is relatively complicated, and an open space is required to dry the paper.

From this perspective, making paper in the house in town is indeed not a good choice.

Since that doesn't work, we can only move to the village.

It’s just that there’s no water in the village river. Although a lot of water has been brought from the mountains, watering the fields is the most important thing now, and six other villages also need water trucks.

But it is not impossible. After all, as long as the water wheel is built, the fields of the seven villages will be irrigated in a few days.

By then, you can use as much water as you want in the pond.

Thinking of this, Li Mengyue said to Gongsun Cheng, "Go buy some lime first, pack up and come live with me in the village. We will build a workshop in the village to make paper."

"What's more, the papermaking process is complicated. If you want to make paper in large quantities, it cannot be done by just a few people. When we are in the village, we can hand over some of the less important processes to the villagers."

The more Li Mengyue talked about it, the more feasible it seemed to her. As long as there was a papermaking workshop in the village, villagers would be given priority when recruiting people in the future.

This will not only solve the problem of labor shortage, but also allow villagers to make money at their doorstep.

After all, if you want Xinghua Village to develop, or even the entire Qingshan Town, you must first make the people rich.

Only when the people are truly prosperous and every household can live a good life can Xinghua Village become better and better.

"As for the bark we collected, we will also take it to the village. But we have to wait until I have arranged a site and accommodation for you."

"Okay, I'll follow your orders, Master."

Gongsun Cheng also thought this was a good idea and planned to tell all the clan members the good news when they returned.

"Okay, just do as I say. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Farewell, Master."

"Sister Fairy, we will be able to live in the village in a few days."

Li Mengyue still liked Nini very much and nodded.

"Yes, Nini, do you like it?"

"Yes, I want to live in the village where the fairy sister lives."

"Well, we'll see each other in a few days."

After saying that, Li Mengyue walked out of the yard and headed towards the blacksmith shop.

At this time, three outsiders came to Qingshan Town, two young men and one middle-aged man.

One of them was a young man in brocade clothes with a tall stature, handsome face, and an innate noble temperament between his eyebrows.

His clothes are elegant, and every line is delicately crafted. The silk robe wraps around his slender figure, and the exquisite patterns embroidered on the collar and cuffs make one know at a glance that he is a man of extraordinary status.

Walking in front of another young man and a middle-aged man, it can be judged that the three of them are in a master-servant relationship.

Three people were walking on the busy street. The two people following behind had sad faces, and the young man in brocade clothes in front had a dull expression, making it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"Master, I heard from the young master of the Jiang family that it was a girl who saved them. But he only said that she was rescued in Qingshan Town and didn't tell us the exact address. Are we going to look for her like looking for a needle in a haystack?" Xie Ming asked doubtfully.

"Of course not. Even though it's just a small Qingshan Town, it's not impossible for the three of us to find a girl. It will just take a lot of time and effort." The young man in brocade clothes, Xie Yunzhou, said generously.

When Xie Ming heard his master say this, he knew that his master had a plan and had come up with a better method.

"What are you going to do, Master?"

"Zhi Jin is here, go ask him."

Xie Ming then reacted. Yes, Yang Zhijin, the legitimate son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, was the young master's good friend. Why couldn't they just go to the county government office and ask? There was no need for them to go through the trouble of looking for him.

After all, Qingshan Town is under the jurisdiction of Wuning County, and the county magistrate is naturally aware of everything that happened in the county.

"Master, when are we going to the county government office?"

"Let's go now."

"Ah, that girl." Shopkeeper Wang, who had been following behind like an invisible man, suddenly exclaimed.

This loud shout attracted many people's attention, but Manager Wang ignored them and ran in one direction instead.

Xie Yunzhou and Xie Ming also looked over there, and only saw the back of a girl.

But as soon as the girl turned around, she could no longer see him.

At this time, Xie Ming called out to Manager Wang.

Shopkeeper Wang saw the girl who sold him Ganoderma lucidum and wanted to continue chasing her, but his master sent someone to call him, so he had to stop and turn back.

"What's going on?" Xie Yunzhou asked.

Shopkeeper Wang was still in a state of calm and said excitedly, "Boss, girl, the girl who sold me the Ganoderma lucidum."

Hearing this, Xie Yunzhou narrowed his eyes. He naturally understood what it meant.

In other words, the girl that Shopkeeper Wang saw was the one who sold the five-hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and the Ganoderma lucidum happened to save his grandmother.

"Let's go and find it."
