The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise
Chapter 72: Cut the potatoes in half and plant them
The next day.
Mr. Xie woke up at 1:05 a.m. and went to wash up.
The village chief was stunned when he saw him. "Mr. Xie, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Mr. Xie smiled faintly, "I can't sleep."
When the village chief saw Mr. Xie accompanying him to watch the villagers reclaim wasteland, he was a little confused, but he still respected the scholar.
"Why did Mr. Xie come with the princess?"
Mr. Xie pursed his lips slightly and said, "The princess is young and doesn't understand some things. I, as a gentleman, came along to answer her questions. It is convenient for both of us to learn more about the world."
The village chief understood and showed even more respect to the princess and Mr. Xie.
In this village, it is time to plant potatoes.
Shen Jiarou asked someone to estimate the amount and found that they did not have enough potatoes.
When Ruan Qingling and the other two saw this, they looked at the princess anxiously.
Shen Jiarou held her forehead with her hand because of a headache, and Zhen Luosang was worried and concerned.
"Princess, are you okay?"
Shen Jiarou shook her head and said, "Tell them to cut the potatoes in half and plant them."
This even shocked the village chief and others.
"Princess, you can't do that." How could you act so foolishly?
Shen Jiarou looked up at the village chief and said, "It will still sprout even if you cut it in half."
Seeing that the princess was determined to do so, the village chief went to Mr. Xie for help.
"Mr. Xie, you have never grown crops, so you don't know how precious they are. You must not let the princess be so reckless."
He has been growing crops for decades, but he has never seen the princess operate like that.
Mr. Xie also frowned at first, but finally he figured it out himself.
"I believe in the princess, brother. If it succeeds, it will be a good deed, and someone will do it. If the princess succeeds, everyone's grain production will be able to increase."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade the man any more, the village chief had no choice but to leave.
Yu Hongtao, who had returned to the county to handle affairs, was shocked when he heard the county magistrate's words.
"What, the princess's order." Isn't that girl too bold?
The county magistrate's next sentence almost sent Yu Hongtao away.
"Yes, not only that, the princess also asked people to leave some space in the middle for her to plant pineapples. She said that the radish seedlings can be stir-fried and soaked to make sauerkraut. When the time comes, the big radishes can be eaten and made into sour radishes.
By the way, the princess asked the people to leave their ashes, saying that she would buy them for one penny per ten pounds.
Yu Hongtao was totally confused now, and he touched his chin and pursed his lips.
"Let's take a look first."
I have known the princess for a while and I believe she is not a promiscuous person.
Shen Jiarou didn't know that this action would actually bring her great help in the future.
Nanny Wang didn't want the princess to stay outside for too long in such a cold weather, so she went to find Xu Zhi in person and asked him to bring the princess back.
Xu Zhi took the order, led his chestnut horse out from the stable at the mansion, mounted the horse swiftly and left.
Nanny Wang had already prepared the affairs of the mansion and sent invitations to several familiar families.
Although she has not made any other arrangements, she believes that with the publicity from others, many people will come that day.
Everyone in the mansion, including Nanny Wang, who passed by, bowed respectfully one by one.
Nanny Su learned from the shopkeeper that diners were very interested in activities and hand warmers, and that she had even sold several of them directly. Although the quantity was not much, it made people happy.
Shen Jiarou was surprised when she saw Xu Zhi.
"Why are you here? Did the nanny and the others give you instructions?"
Xu Zhi nodded respectfully and said, "My lord, yes. Nanny Wang asked her servants to come and find you, saying that the banquet is almost over and asked you to go back."
He also felt that it was too cold outside and the princess was too young to stay there for a long time.
Shen Jiarou, Ruan Qingling, Zhen Luosang, and Zheng Shutong looked at each other, and Zheng Shutong said softly, "Princess, let's go back first. I'm afraid the maids are also very worried."
After all, the last time the princess disappeared, it scared everyone.
Before leaving, Shen Jiarou specifically instructed that after the potatoes were planted and the radishes were sown, the soil should be irrigated with manure from the people's homes.
When the village chief heard that the money was returned, he quickly gathered the villagers to carry manure water on shoulder poles to water the soil.
Before leaving, Ruan Qingling sent a guard back home to report the news, so as not to let the nanny worry for another hour.
Just as Nanny Su finished reporting the situation at the hot pot shop to Nanny Wang, she heard from the servants that Miss Ruan had sent a guard back.
The two looked at each other and said, "Pass it quickly."
After seeing who was coming, the two men discovered that he was one of the bandits that the princess had recruited.
"Dawei, why did Qingling let you come back?"
Zhu Dawei bowed and said, "Madame Wang, Madame Su, Miss Ruan asked me to tell you that they have already set off to the county town."
The two of them smiled after hearing this, and Nanny Wang waved her hand.
"Okay, we know what's going on. You can go down and have a rest first."
Zhu Dawei bowed and left.
Although the rules in the mansion were becoming more and more strict, their food, clothing, housing and transportation were also getting better and better, which was not bad. Their life was stable, with a fixed monthly salary, and from time to time, if they did their job well, the princess would give them rewards. Life was so wonderful.
When everyone in the guardhouse saw him coming back, they greeted each other warmly.
"Dawei is back."
"came back."
An hour later, a beautiful carriage drove to the outside of the Princess's Mansion.
Ruan Qingling got off the car, turned around and helped Shen Jiarou out.
Nanny Wang and Nanny Su had just arrived at the gate of the mansion. Seeing the princess had gotten off the carriage, they hurried over.
"The old slave has met the princess."
Shen Jiarou smiled brightly, "Hello, Nanny Wang and Nanny Su."
The two of them hurriedly welcomed her into the backyard. As soon as Shen Jiarou stepped over the threshold, she received the hand warmer that Nanny Su had prepared in advance, which kept her much warmer along the way.
The servant brought a cup of clove tea.
"Princess, this is clove tea, it can warm your stomach."
Shen Jiarou handed the hand warmer to Ruan Qingling, who took it with a slight raise of her hand.
"Thank you!"
The servants felt that their masters were very polite and spoke softly, which made it easy for them to serve them.
"Madam Su, how is the hot pot shop? I heard that they sold a few hand warmers."
Nanny Su, who was warming herself around the fire, had a loving smile on her face.
"So far, we have sold ten hand warmers. Many people are interested, but they are a little hesitant about the price."
Elemental Frost said quietly, "It's okay, Madam Su. Our master is going for the high-end route. After all, ordinary people don't use hand warmers."
For ordinary people without money, the best they can do is to use a fire basket.
Madam Su nodded and said, "That's right. We should go for the mid- to high-end line for hand warmers."
Nanny Wang listened quietly to their discussion.
"My lord, do you want to add some new tricks?"
Shen Jiarou glanced at Zhen Luosang, and Zhen Luosang took out a piece of slightly rough paper from his arms.
"Please take a look, Madam Wang. This hand warmer is superior to the one you have seen before."
Nanny Wang took it and examined it carefully.
“The style is not as complicated as those in Beijing, but it has a simple, elegant and beautiful feel.”
After saying that, she sighed, "It's a pity that we are not in the capital, otherwise we can catch a wave of opportunities to make money."
Shen Jiarou laughed and said, "Don't worry, there are other ways to make money in Beijing. We should just go with the flow."
Seeing the princess being so open-minded, Nanny Wang felt a little embarrassed.
I am an adult, but I am not as insightful as a child.
