The Legend of the Farm Girl

Yunfang asked Han Jingxin to go back and take care of the child. She stayed alone under the moon for a long time. Slowly, she figured it out.

With her current abilities and what she has, if Li Muwen wants to take a concubine now, she has no way to stop him. Even for Li Weiheng, she cannot show strong dissatisfaction.

Her family background cannot be compared with those noble ladies, but she wants to become an important person through her own efforts, so that even if Li Muwen's feelings for her change in the future, Li Muwen will consider her feelings in everything he does.

How can she make her position so important that no one else can replace her? She needs to keep learning in the system and create something useful for this era that only she can master.

Now that she had a direction, Yunfang was no longer anxious. She returned to her bedroom and continued to study hard in the system.

When the 200 people who went out to look for alfalfa came back, Yunfang would continue to develop her caravan, expand it to the point where it could go out to sea, and go to that distant place to find the two new seeds that were high-yielding and drought-resistant. One was called corn, and the other was called sweet potato.

To reach that distant continent, what is needed is not as simple as going to the Western countries to look for alfalfa.

Yunfang needs to use the geographical knowledge she has learned to draw a detailed map, and then be able to build a ship large enough to ride the wind and waves.

The caravan members' lives at sea must also be carefully planned.

For others, it may be difficult to achieve any one of these aspects in a lifetime, but for Yunfang, she quickly mastered all aspects of skills by accepting the most advanced knowledge taught by the system.

All she needs is time and slowly accumulated resources. Only with enough resources can she afford to build a big enough ship and hire more people.

The question comes back to whether these 200 people can successfully bring back enough alfalfa seeds and enough lambs.

The caravan's business activities in the previous six months could only be described as small-scale, and the money earned was not even as much as what Linglong Xiufang in Yiqing County earned in a year.

Ultimately, it is because the land in Liangzhou is too barren, and the caravans can only engage in some reselling activities. But if Liangzhou can successfully grow alfalfa and feed enough sheep, then they can develop many industries based on sheep.

With these industries and by transporting these things out, the caravans will be able to maximize their strength and make more money.

Yunfang had confidence in the 200 people in the caravan. Although she didn't know why they returned to Liangzhou City a little later than originally planned, she firmly believed that they should be back soon.

After Yunfang studied the system all night without any slack, she woke up in the morning full of energy.

After she stood up, she was surprised to see Li Muwen walking towards her with a basin of water, looking flattering.

Li Muwen looked into Yunfang's eyes and said, "Madam, I didn't answer the question well yesterday. I was really too tired. I just said a few simple words. Don't worry, I will never take a concubine. You are the only one in my heart. I only want to be with you for the rest of my life."

Yunfang didn't know whether she should believe the truth he said yesterday after drinking, or believe his affectionate words this morning.

She could only smile and nod, then reached into the basin to wash her face, and then used the excuse of feeding her baby to quickly leave Li Muwen's sight.

After feeding the child, Chun'er, Yunfang's maid, quickly walked up to Yunfang and said, "Madam, Yunwu is here to see you. He has something important to report."

Yunfang hurried to the front hall and saw Yunwu standing there waiting for her.

As soon as he saw her, Yun Wu hurriedly said, "Madam, I have inquired about it. The reason why the caravan has not returned yet is because it was stopped by the army on the way back to Liangzhou City from Guzang County. They said that if they want to return to Liangzhou City, they must hand over half of the lambs."

"Li Si and his men did not agree. The army knew they were your caravan, so they did not take any strong measures. They just detained them where they were and did not allow them to send anyone to inform you. It took me many days to find out this news."

Yunfang was a little shocked when she heard these words. It seemed that this matter could only be solved by her and Li Muwen working together.

Do these people really just want half of the lamb? What they really want should be Li Muwen's favor.

But these lambs are very important to Yunfang's next plan, so even though she knows that they want Li Muwen's favor, she has to take Li Muwen with her to get back those people and the things they brought back.

Yunfang asked Chun'er, who was beside her, to call Li Muwen back. Fortunately, Li Muwen was not busy with political affairs at the moment.

Li Muwen knew the significance of alfalfa and the lambs, so when he heard that they were detained by the border guards, he did not wait for Yunfang to ask, but told Yunfang directly that he would write a letter to get these people and the goods they brought back intact.

Without wasting any time, Li Muwen immediately wrote a letter in which he expressed his sincere praise for the border guards. He also clearly stated that he would be very grateful if these people could come back safely.

With such a letter, Li Muwen will help them as long as the requests made by the border soldiers in the future are not too excessive.

Li Muwen was the runner-up in the new imperial examination, and at a young age he had already been promoted to a sixth-rank official. In their eyes, he had a bright future, so such a letter was very valuable.

The border guard detained the people from the Yunfang caravan just to get such a letter. Now that his goal had been achieved, he released the people from the caravan without saying a word, and sent a team of soldiers to guard them throughout the journey to ensure that not a single lamb would be lost along the way.

On the day the caravan entered the city, there were 200 people leading a huge flock of lambs. They were carrying a lot of packages, but no one knew what was in the packages.

But these lambs were enough to make people's eyes widen. They came back with about 800 lambs.

Yunfang, who had received the news long ago, waited in the Yun's Trading Company. After Li Si and the other 200 people arrived at the Yun's Trading Company, several team leaders rushed into the house and reported the situation to Yunfang.

Each of them carried a lot of alfalfa seeds on his back, and in addition, some grass for the lambs to eat.

They have thought it through carefully. Even if they plant alfalfa seeds in the soil now, it will take a month for it to grow. What will the lambs eat during this period?

The large and small bags they carried were all hay bought from outside, so that the lambs could grow steadily until one month later and then eat alfalfa.

Because they were carrying a lot of fodder and the defenders detained them for a while, it took so long.

But fortunately it does not affect the sowing of alfalfa.
