Dressed as a top-notch girl, leading the whole village to become rich
Chapter 161 Brewing
Before coming to the North, Ye An didn't know that one day he would miss someone so much.
The engagement was forced upon me by the situation, and now I don't know if it was just wishful thinking on my part.
Seeing Ye An's thoughtful look, Ye Guo couldn't help but recall the plot in the book.
After Zhou Jingwen won the title of top scholar in the imperial examination, he took the initiative to announce his identity in front of the palace. Emperor Cheng made the decision and directly named him the crown prince, skipping over everyone else.
In order to repay Emperor Cheng's kindness, Zhou Jingwen volunteered to participate in the Northern Expedition.
The heroine traveled between the south and the imperial city, and all the money she earned was exchanged for food and armaments, which were sent to the north.
What Ye An is doing now is actually not contrary to the main plot.
The difficulty is, if the male lead comes, the female lead must leave? In order for the two to have a relationship?
"Is my aunt leaving tomorrow?" Ye An asked.
"Well, we'll leave tomorrow. I told you before that you need to find a reliable person to take over the affairs of the military camp. Uncle Sun should be here in a few days, and there will be bigger business waiting for you to do."
Ye Guo walked back and forth in the tent for about twenty minutes, then sat down to rest.
"Go back and pack your things. We probably won't be coming back once we leave."
In the past, Ye An was afraid of the military camp. But now, she felt reluctant to leave after hearing these words.
But she knew this was normal. This place was not suitable for a girl to stay for too long, especially one with a fragile body like her.
The next day, General Weiyuan personally sent people to the General's Mansion in the county town.
Because Liang Yuan and others did not leave, the general had no room to stay, so he temporarily requisitioned the house next door.
Ye Guo was in poor health and did not have the energy to socialize, so he also chose to live next door.
The first thing he did after moving in was to ask Ye An to take Nanny Liu to the street, and then tell her everything he saw and heard at the border market, no matter how big or small.
She also asked Liang Yuan and others to disguise themselves as ordinary businessmen and go around to check out the planting conditions in the fields.
It is now the spring farming season in the north. Only by understanding the situation clearly can we better know what we can do.
When Ye Guo saw the grapes that Ye An bought, he guessed that the regional characteristics here should be similar to those of the Western Regions.
There are quite a lot of good things, such as carrots, pomegranates, cashews, etc., which are quite famous.
Although he wanted to help with farming, Boss Ye was not around, and given his current health, it was more important not to worry others.
After Imperial Doctor Peng finished taking the patient's pulse, Ye Guo took Madam Liu and the others to get busy in the yard.
She wrote to Xu Changqing saying that she was preparing to brew some celebratory wine for them.
The winemaking that Ye Guo was referring to was naturally winemaking.
Making wine is not a difficult thing, and if you sell red wine, you can probably make a lot of money, which can be used as military expenses to end this damn war as soon as possible.
The North is barren and it is almost impossible to find expensive fine porcelain, but earthenware is everywhere on the streets, making it perfect for making wine.
The royal guards Liang Yuan brought with him usually don't have much to do except training, so they are just right for helping out. The house is big and there are many empty rooms. Since we are going to brew wine, we might as well brew more.
When leaving Yejia Village, Ye Guo took two-thirds of the Ye family's silver notes, at least three to five thousand taels. Now it came in handy, and for a while, not even a single grape could be found in the market.
Washing grapes, drying grapes, pressing grapes... Every vat is sealed by Ye Guo himself and wait for fermentation.
This process was actually very relaxing. By the time the wine jars filled three rooms, Ye Guo's body had completely recovered.
It was at this time that Sun Qian came to the door with the token.
The first thing he said when he saw Ye Guo was, "Congratulations, Xiao Guo. The Ye family has three scholars in one family, which has shocked the entire Changhua County."
Ye Guo stood up in great surprise, "Uncle Sun, you can't joke with me. Where is the letter? Let me see how my second brother shows off."
"Siyuan is really amazing. He has been idle for so many years, but he still managed to get such a good ranking. Your Yejia Village has now become a blessed place for the locals."
"Not only did all three of your family members pass the exam, but Ping An and Ye Zifeng from your village were also on the list. Especially Ping An, I heard he even got first place."
Daqing also has the saying of "three first place in the imperial examination". It seems that Ping'an deliberately concealed his shortcomings during the provincial examination.
Although he is the male protagonist, Ye Guo still cares more about his family than his own, so he took the letter and read it quickly.
Sure enough, her second brother told her the good news in a letter, saying that he was concentrating on preparing for the spring examination.
But he also said that he was old and he would take the exam just once anyway, and he still had Ali.
The second brother also said that Xiaowan's marriage has become a hot topic now. But Ye Lao Da refused to respond to anyone who asked, saying that he would wait for her to come back.
For Xiaowan and all of Ye Guo's family, this was a happy ending after all the hardship. Her eyes became red as she read the letter.
"Xiaoguo, don't cry. You have just recovered and can't stand any more hardship." Sun Qian really cared about her and couldn't help but remind her.
Hearing this, Ye Guo smiled and wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, saying embarrassedly, "I just had a minor illness, how come Uncle Sun also knew about it?"
Sun Qian took off his gloves and hat while saying, "I heard this at the market. Everyone is saying that the border won a victory when the county lady came, and they are all burning incense and praying for you."
No one had told her about this, and Ye Guo planned to ask about it in detail later. Public opinion could, to a certain extent, influence the outcome of the war.
"Uncle Sun, you've worked hard on the journey. What about the things I asked you to bring?" Ye Guo is always like this. His thoughts change very quickly, but his goals are clear.
Sun Qian liked her straightforward style of doing things, which did not require too much guessing. He finished the tea in his hand and smiled.
"Don't worry, I've brought all the herbs you requested. I also brought a lot of tea leaves and sea salt, which are both hard currency here."
"I have contacted the cattle and sheep you requested as soon as they arrived. As long as the supplies are in place, you can ask the generals to wait for the extra food."
As expected of a man who has traveled all over the country, he always does things in a prudent manner.
Ye Guo smiled with her eyes curved into a smile. Although she had not seen any wounded soldiers during her time in the military camp, she could guess what the situation was by listening to the sounds and smelling the smells.
The medicinal herbs that Uncle Sun brought were not expensive, but they were in large quantities, taking up as much as thirty ox carts to transport. Moreover, eight out of ten of them were medicines for stopping bleeding and healing wounds.
Xu Changqing, who had just returned from the battlefield, heard from his personal guards that Commander Liang had arrived. Guard Lu had always been by his side, and now most of the external affairs were handled by Liang Yuan.
General Weiyuan standing by also knew Liang Yuan's identity, so he shouted that he wanted to go together.
After reading the letter, both of them were silent.
