The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Seeing that the princess was so surprised that she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, Su Ma sighed in her heart. This number was far beyond their expectations.

"My Lord, I'm afraid we don't need so many people right now."

Bao Zhiqing also looked at the princess worriedly.

After thinking it over, Shen Jiarou decided to take both.

"Mammy, we want them all. There is strength in numbers. Twenty coins per person, one tael of silver for fifty people, eighteen thousand people, three hundred and sixty thousand coins, that is, three hundred and sixty taels. It seems we have to speed up the pace of making money."

Nanny Su and Nanny He looked at each other and lowered their heads. Ruan Qingling, Zhen Luosang, Yuansu Shuang, and Yaer looked at their master worriedly.

Shen Jiarou looked at Nanny He in front of her and asked, "How is the shop?"

"Master, we are already buying more and it will be ready tomorrow. We have also found the staff. I want Ya'er to train them. She has been with the master the longest and knows the hot pot shop best."

Shen Jiarou, Nanny Su, Ruan Qingling, Zhen Luosang, and Yuansu Shuang all looked at her, and Yaer felt a lot of pressure for a moment.

"Okay, Ya'er, thank you for your hard work."

Yaer bowed slightly and said, "Yes, Master, I will teach you well."

The land reclamation was scheduled for three days later. According to the master's instructions, the people not only reclaimed the wasteland with the help of cattle, but also planted corn seedlings, soybeans and mung beans directly in a few days.

In the area closest to Nanning County, the people were arranged to plant rainbow beans (cowpeas), green beans (four beans), and sword beans (sword beans).

Shen Jiarou rode in a carriage all the way, lifting the curtain to look at the situation everywhere.

Nanny Su said, "Master, you bought all those wastelands with your own money, so it will be more convenient for us to manage them in the future."

This is what Shen Jiarou thought, but she was not so stupid as to make things easier for others every day.

While helping the people, she also has to protect her own interests and strive for the greatest rights and interests. She cannot let her sincerity go to waste and be betrayed.

Thoughts drifted away, Shen Jiarou smiled faintly, "Madame Su is right, but we will need more people to manage it in the future."

Nanny Su understood what she meant. "We'll take our time with this. We just need to pay more attention to the selection of candidates."

Shen Jiarou nodded slightly.

The hot pot shop in the county town is a branch, and the main store is the one in Anren County.

Although there are fewer people in Nanning County, the hot pot shop business is still okay.

In order to make life easier for the people in the county, Shen Jiarou decided to build a vegetable market on the entire street in the remote Dongcheng District. Firstly, the price of the shop would be cheaper, so it wouldn't be too much of a hassle for her to buy it; secondly, the price would be more affordable if she rented it to the people; thirdly, it would boost the economy, so the people would have a job, and indirectly improve their living standards.

She is fighting a protracted war.

On the way back, Shen Jiarou's eyes were filled with sorrow.

Nanny Su couldn't help but ask, "Master, is there anything bothering you?"

Shen Jiarou, who was sitting upright in the carriage, spoke slowly.

“As I come into contact with more and more things, I find it increasingly difficult.”

Ruan Qingling agreed, "Master is right, I think so too."

Zhen Luosang bit her lip and said, "Although I was in the palace before, I had little contact with it, and I am a little tired at the moment."

Madam Su asked, "Master, what do you think?"

Hearing this, the four maids looked over.

"I think we should invite a gentleman with both moral integrity and talent to teach us."

Ruan Qingling and Zhen Luosang were shocked. “Do we servants have to learn too?”

Madam Su understood what she meant. "But it's not impossible. I'll ask them to keep an eye on it and let the master take a look if there's a suitable candidate."

Shen Jiarou raised her hand and said, "No, I think this matter is quite urgent. Right now, I have to do a lot of things in Nanning County at once. If I delay a little, I am afraid I won't be able to handle it well and there will be a lot of trouble."

After arriving at the county town, Shen Jiarou refused to take the carriage again and decided to walk back through the streets.

Su Ma knew that she was in clear defense, so she didn't say anything. There were 12 people in total, wandering around the street.

Mr. Li went into the city to report back home, but he found his master wandering around in front of him, so he hurried over.

"This subordinate has met his master."

Shen Jiarou raised her eyes and said, "Let's talk while we walk."

Mr. Li said slowly, "The people have already planted rice seedlings and sowed corn seedlings."

Shen Jiarou nodded calmly, "Well, but there is something else happening."

"Yes, but most of them are trivial matters, harmless."

Shen Jiarou no longer asked about the people's rice seedling planting, but thought about the ten mountains she had bought.

"There are so many trees on the mountain. We can cut some down to build houses and farms."

When Nanny Su saw the princess mention Zhuangzi, she thought it was very necessary.

"This matter should be put on the agenda. Otherwise, we have so much wasteland and crops have already been planted, which will be difficult to deal with."

Shen Jiarou nodded and said, "Mr. Li, you are the most subordinate in each village and town. I will leave this matter to you."

Mr. Li has been very tired recently, but he is still very happy to be valued by his master.

"I obey my orders."

"When the time comes, let someone look at the area first, plan the route, and arrange for the people to go up the mountain to cut down trees. The remaining branches and buds can be transported back to the county, especially the slightly better ones."

Mr. Li nodded, "I understand."

When they were still one kilometer away from the mansion, Shen Jiarou ordered Zhen Luosang to send someone to post a notice inviting the gentleman.

"Yes, Master, I will definitely do it."

The middle-aged man they passed by turned around and looked at everyone deeply.

Shen Jiarou's birthday treat was a bowl of longevity noodles, which included her favorite shredded potatoes, carrots, and leafy vegetables, with some seasonings, and tasted pretty good.

Ruan Qingling and Zhen Luosang felt very sad when they saw the princess eating noodles.

Ruan Qingling couldn't help but feel sorry for her, "Junior, there's really no need for us to feel so wronged. You are a princess appointed by the emperor himself, how can you just have a bowl of longevity noodles to solve your problem?"

Zhen Luosang also felt sad for her, "Yes, Princess."

Shen Jiarou sighed softly, "We've been very busy lately, let's talk about it after we're done."

Elemental Frost, who had been standing quietly, took out a handkerchief embroidered with orchids from his arms.

"My Lord, this is the orchid handkerchief I embroidered. I wish you a happy birthday and eternal happiness."

Shen Jiarou was quite excited when she suddenly received a birthday gift.

"Thank you, Su Shuang. You've worked so hard."

Elemental Frost lowered her head shyly and said, "It's not hard for me."

Zhen Luosang discovered that the handkerchief was made of fine silk and suddenly understood.

"No wonder you have been reluctant to part with that piece of cloth. It turns out this is its use." Thinking of his birthday gift, Zhen Luosang also took it out from his arms.

"My Lord, take a look at the birthday gift I prepared for you."

Shen Jiarou was pleasantly surprised and said, "You have it too, so I have to take a look."

When I opened the brocade box, I found an exquisite pearl hairpin inlaid with light pink petals, which was quite unique.

Shen Jiarou said happily, "Please bring it with me to see."

Zhen Luosang took the hairpin and inserted it into his master's hair.

"nice."

Shen Jiarou couldn't help caressing him and said, "Wait until I'm older, then it will be more suitable."

Zhen Luosang covered her face and smiled, "From now on, I will make you a different hairpin every year."

Shen Jiarou grasped the key words.
