Considering that my parents will build two new villages near Shita Mountain after they come here, there will be a lot of places where money will be needed.

Although Viscount Hocas promised to provide 5,000 serfs to supplement the new village, how much money can the serfs earn in a year if they are simply allowed to farm?

So Xiuyi decided decisively to pick up his previous experience in incense art.

Although most of the plants in this other world are different from those in the previous life, it is still not a problem to find something with similar effects.

At the very least... let's play the simplest one first...

Shuichi first asked the castle servant to ask the blacksmith to make a mortar and pestle, then collected some orange peels left over from the morning and asked Phoenix Fire to help dry them.

After the peel is dried, put the dehydrated peel into a mortar and pestle, crush it, and sieve it. Repeat this process several times to get some fine orange-yellow powder.

It smells a bit fruity.

While Shuichi was doing this, Viscount Hocas and Master Bocolanchi were very curious and watched the whole process.

During this period, the two left for a while, and when they came back, they brought back two strangers.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the black-haired boy's face, as if giving him a layer of golden light.

Shuichi sat alone in front of a table in the garden, using the mortar and pestle carefully and attentively.

A colorful black crow was watching the boy meticulously on the table, occasionally walking a few steps on the table and looking around, as if on guard.

finished.

When Xiuyi sifted the orange powder in the mortar and pestle and collected the fine and smooth powder into a translucent glass bottle, four faces suddenly came over.

Two of them were the familiar Viscount Hocas and old man Bocolanchi, but the other two were strangers.

One of them was an old lady with a unique temperament, wearing a gray scholar's robe, gray hair, and a pair of gold glasses.

The other one was a little red-haired girl who was about twelve or thirteen years old.

The little Loli is very cute. She is wearing a blue dress suitable for walking outside and a beret on her head. Her long straight red hair is smooth and silky. Her delicate little face has a pair of dimples when she smiles. She is a very cute girl.

Just after finishing the work at hand, he looked up and saw four people rushing to his face. Xiu instinctively leaned back and almost overturned the armchair and fell to the ground.

Phoenix Fire flew up into the sky, using one of its wings to hide the smile of its successful mischief.

Hocas and Bocolanchi hurriedly held Xiuyi steady to prevent the little guy from falling on his head.

"Teacher! Uncle! Why are you back? And who are these two guests?"

Although he was a little unhappy, Shuichi did not explode, but instead expressed his dissatisfaction with a heavier tone.

"Do you want to guess who they are?"

The old man winked at Xiuyi like a mischievous boy. This old man is quite funny.

"..."

Xiuyi looked at the old woman and the red-haired girl in a blue dress, calculated the time of their arrival, and was basically sure who it was.

Xiuyi looked at Bocolangqi and said, "They are the friends you told me about before?"

"Ha, I told you, it's not a problem for him." Hocas laughed and gently touched Shuichi's head.

Feeling ashamed, Shuichi quickly turned his head away to avoid Viscount Hocas's approach.

It’s okay to touch beautiful women, but stinky men, get out of here.

"Ahem, let me introduce you formally." Old man Bocolanqi pointed at the smiling old woman and said, "This is the Silver Ring Scholar of the Institute of Knowledge, Madam Monica. Don't underestimate Madam Monica because she is a woman. She is one of the founders of modern medicine. We have a lot of areas in herbal medicine that require cooperation with Madam Monica..."

The old man said a lot of things, the core meaning of which was that Madam Monica had a lot of connections in the Institute of Knowledge, so kid, remember to hold on to her thighs, because when you go to the headquarters of the Institute of Knowledge to study in the future, you will need Madam Monica's care.

The scholars of the Society of Knowledge are divided into ordinary scholars without rings, iron ring scholars, copper ring scholars, silver ring scholars and the highest gold ring scholars.

Based on the scholars' contributions to the Society, or based on the academic achievements achieved by the scholars, the Society will award honorary rings to scholars who have achieved corresponding achievements.

It is said that there are only seven scholars at the highest level of the Golden Ring.

Therefore, Yinhuan is already considered a high-ranking member of the Confucian Society.

These are the basic knowledge of the Bozhi Society, which the old man has taught recently.

Only then did Shuichi take a serious look at the silver ring-shaped forehead ornament worn on Mrs. Monica's forehead.

"Hello, ma'am." Xiuyi bowed and wanted to say a few polite words, but he suddenly realized that the old man had never mentioned the deeds of Mrs. Monica to him, so he had to say hello and shut up.

"Good boy, I've been wanting to see you for a long time."

Mrs. Monica kindly took Shuichi's hand and chatted with him for a few words, mostly praising him.

But Xiuyi didn't know about Mrs. Monica's deeds, so even if he wanted to brag about each other, he could only say dryly that the silver ring was really beautiful.

"Next..."

The old man saw Shuichi's embarrassment and couldn't help but feel a sense of interest in watching the fun.

Xiuyi usually behaves too calmly and doesn't look like an 8-year-old child.

Although it is very worry-free, it does lack the liveliness and innocence of a young child.

Just when the old man wanted to introduce the little girl, the red-haired girl took off her beret and gave Xiuyi a skirt-lifting salute.

The etiquette is very standard, but when this little girl opens her mouth she sounds like a filial son and a good grandson.

"You are Xiuyi, right? Don't pay attention to my grandpa. The old man is used to making trouble and likes to play tricks on people. I have been wondering what kind of person you are all the way. I didn't expect that after meeting the real person, you are quite interesting." The little girl smiled and put her hands behind her back. She bent down and put her face in front of Xiuyi. Her soft breath with the unique liveliness and milk fragrance of the little girl patted Xiuyi's face: "My name is Monica, and I am currently studying medicine with my grandma. When I become a master, I can treat you for free."

After saying that, Monique blinked her left eye at Xiuyi.

Shuichi: "..."

He looked at Madame Monica, then at old man Bocolanchi, and then his gaze returned to Monica.

After going back and forth like this several times, Xiuyi's CPU was about to burn out.

He pointed at old man Bocolanqi and asked stupidly, "Grandpa?"

The old man nodded with a smile.

Xiuyi turned his head blankly to face Mrs. Monica, who should be about the same age as the old man, but looked younger, and seemed to be only in her early 50s: "Grandma?"

"I'm Monique's grandmother, Shuichi-chan."

Mrs. Monica nodded in the affirmative.

Xiuyi finally looked at the red-haired little loli Monique in confusion: "Granddaughter?"

"My own~"

Monique winked playfully and even stuck out her little pink tongue at the shocked Shuichi.

“Didn’t you say…” Xiuyi shuddered and glared at the old man: “When we first met, didn’t you say that wise men don’t fall in love? I thought you were the kind of noble wise man who gave up personal pursuits for academic career, but…but…”

It turns out that your granddaughter is several years older than me!!!

When Xiu Yi thought of what the old man said when they met, "A wise man does not fall in love", and then looked at Mrs. Monica who was flirting with the old man and Monica who claimed to be his granddaughter, he was numb.

This city really knows how to have fun!

"Hahaha……"

The old man was quite satisfied with Shuichi's shocked expression at this moment. He had been keeping it a secret from Shuichi and not telling him anything, wasn't it just for this moment of joy?

"We are not married, so how can it hinder our academic research? Besides, everyone has desires. Only by releasing our desires can we do better research. Moreover, if we don't even have descendants, who will inherit our academic research?"

"..."

Damn, what this old man said makes so much sense, I don’t know how to refute it.

The old man doesn't get married for the sake of academic research. He and Mrs. Monica are just friends and there is no romantic relationship between them.

Even if we have a baby, it's just for the sake of having someone to inherit our academic legacy...

What kind of insane thinking is this! ?

What a logical genius! ! ? ?

Shuichi felt that he was powerless to refute because no matter what he said, it would be meaningless.

Except for Shuichi, everyone present seemed to have entered a sea of ​​joy, with their smiles particularly bright.

Viscount Hocas standing by laughed until tears came out.

Only Shuichi, who felt that he had been betrayed, rolled his eyes like a salted fish.

Xiuyi sighed in his heart, it was all in vain after all.

Don’t believe anything the old man says from now on. This old man is so evil!
