The Legend of the Farm Girl

Yunfang and Li Muwen could no longer see what kind of punishment Lu Yunze would receive. After the morning court session, they went to the imperial study and explained to the emperor in detail that they were ready to leave at any time.

The Queen has also prepared a large amount of supplies for Chu Xingyu in the past two months, and the five hundred soldiers she selected are the most capable and extremely loyal in the entire country.

They were also equipped with the best weapons.

There have been undercurrents in and outside the capital recently, and the emperor believes that Li Muwen and his team must indeed set off.

So the emperor immediately issued an order, ordering Chu Xingyu to follow Li Muwen and Yun Fang, as well as five hundred soldiers, and set off to Yiqing County to board a ship to go out to sea, carrying supplies.

In addition to these people, the emperor also sent countless elite soldiers to escort them.

Make sure they are safe before going out to sea, before leaving this dynastic land.

With the escort of the entire country, no one would be so blind as to provoke them, so they safely brought them to Yiqing County and loaded them onto the ship.

On the way, Yunfang and Li Muwen came into contact with Prince Shou Chu Xingyu for the first time.

The seven-year-old child has always been well protected under the wings of his parents. His mother loves him very much, so he has not experienced any hardships during his growth.

Even though he received the imperial edict two months ago, his mother had been treating him with tears, and he did not realize that he was about to leave this land and would not be able to return for many years.

He thought he was just away for a while and could come back anytime if he missed home.

So he was quite excited, and even though his father and mother were not with him, the attendants, maids, eunuchs and nannies he was familiar with were all with him.

Because before he set off, his father and mother repeatedly told him to listen to Li Muwen and Yunfang, so he also respected Yunfang and Li Muwen very much.

They get along very harmoniously.

When they arrived at Yiqing County, they had to transport large quantities of goods to the seagoing ships. When the goods were transported, they boarded the ships and set off immediately. This was also the emperor's order.

So they still had two days before they set off.

Finally, confirm the people who will be traveling with them.

Both the Yun and Li families knew that Yun Fang and Li Muwen were going to assist Prince Shou in searching for a new continent and establishing diplomatic relations.

But no one knew that it would take at least ten years for them to be gone.

The Yun family has few people, and Yun Fang's mother is very worried, but her two daughters-in-law are pregnant and cannot accompany Yun Fang to the sea.

On the contrary, Aunt Wang, who was on good terms with their family, suggested that Erfu go with them to broaden their horizons.

Yunfang tentatively asked Aunt Wang if their family could accept it if it took them ten years to be gone.

After careful consideration, Aunt Wang and Erfu's family felt that even ten years was acceptable as it was a chance to have a good future.

But I hope to bring Erfu’s wife with me. After all, it would be too torturous for two people to be separated for ten years.

After hearing this, Yunfang agreed to take Erfu with her.

There were also many people of the same generation as Li Muwen in the Li family who wanted to go and try their luck. Some were scared off by Yun Fang's ten-year age, while others wanted to go with their spouses so they could have a companion on the boat.

After the relatives had made arrangements, Yunfang handed over the affairs of the caravan to Yunfeng, Yunying and Li Muwen's eldest brother to manage together.

Since Li Muwen left Liangzhou, the business in Liangzhou has been much worse than before. The new governor obviously wants to control the sheep business in Liangzhou.

Yun Fang had no other background or support but Li Muwen, so after she and Li Muwen left Liangliang Prefecture, the living space of her caravan was greatly suppressed.

Fortunately, the new governor of Liangzhou was an official in the same dynasty as Li Muwen, so he gave Li Muwen some face and did not abolish the business completely, leaving Yunfang with some business territory.

With the talents of Yunfeng Yunying and big brother Li Muwen, there shouldn't be any problem if we don't ask them to innovate but just hold on to the remaining business territory.

Yunfeng is now serving as a county magistrate in a certain county. The emperor once promised them that he would treat their families well after they go to sea, which also includes promoting Yunfeng, so Yunfeng's official career should be smooth.

Therefore, even if Li Muwen's influence disappears in the future, with Yun Feng's influence, her caravan should not be oppressed and unable to survive.

Before the emperor's order was issued, Yunfang selected some capable people from the caravan who were willing to go to sea with her.

But after the emperor's decree was issued, Yunfang asked them again.

If I leave for many years, will they be able to accept it?

Some people are still willing to go out to sea with Yunfang, but some people are backing out.

The people in the caravan have all been carefully trained by Yunfang, so if they are willing to follow Yunfang to sea, it will be more convenient for Yunfang to develop his business wherever he goes.

Yunfang selected another 200 people who were willing to accompany her on her voyage and had sufficient abilities.

In addition to the caravan, there were also the forty people she had bought. When they first arrived in Liangzhou, she promised them that if they wanted to leave after ten years, she would return their indentures.

Now there is no need to wait for ten years, Yunfang decided to return the contract to them now and register it with the government.

The wages of the forty people had been rising over the past seven years. Most of them had married, but the marriage partners were almost always two people among the forty.

Yunfang returned their indentures and also gave each of them ten taels of silver so that they could have a foothold even if they returned to their hometown.

None of the 40 people were willing to leave, and they have gradually contacted their families over the years. Many of them sent their wages to their families so that they could live a better life.

It didn't matter whether they appeared or not around their family. They were all kind-hearted. Over the years, Yunfang and Li Muwen didn't treat them like slaves, but really taught them knowledge.

So they were willing to go out to sea with Yunfang and Li Muwen, not afraid of danger, to repay Yunfang and Li Muwen for their kindness to them over the years. Their last request was to find someone to send the silver Yunfang gave them back home.

These forty people were carefully trained by Yunfang over the years, and they were talented in all aspects. Yunfang still went to the government to cancel their slave status, but agreed to let the forty people accompany them to go to sea.

Yunfang also asked for the opinions of Chunxiaqiudong and Han Jingxin, the maids who had always been with Yunfang. If they did not want to go to sea, Yunfang would return their indentures and give them money to settle down.

The four of them, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, have become more and more beautiful and lovely, and have learned a lot from Yunfang over the years.

They were all sold by their families. They had a hard life at home before. If they returned home, they didn't know if they would be sold again.

So they all chose to follow Yunfang and continue to serve her.

Han Jingxin was a little hesitant, but when she saw Yunfang and Li Muwen bring her husband and child to her side, this hesitation turned into a kind of determination, and the three of them decided to accompany Yunfang to go to sea together.

Finding Han Jingxin's husband and child was just a matter of a word from the emperor. The emperor sent Zheng Lin to accompany Li Muwen to the Earl's Mansion to ask and they got the result.

After asking, there was no need for Li Muwen to look for him. The Earl's Mansion sent the person directly over.

The personnel going out to sea were decided: 500 elite soldiers sent by the emperor, 200 people from the Yunfang caravan, 40 confidants, she and Li Muwen and their families, a total of 10 people, Prince Shou and his caregivers, 30 people, four maids Chun, Xia, Qiu and Dong, and Han Jingxin's family of three.

In this way, nearly eight hundred people formed the team for this voyage.
