Lucky Farmer Girl: I rely on metaphysics to support my family

Chapter 796 Management
Tang Wan returned to the main house, and after confirming that no one was around, she turned around and entered the space.

Time is running out, so she needs to hurry up and cultivate some new land. Although she cultivated 30 mu of new land yesterday, the harvest will only yield an extra 30,000 jin of grain. She needs to cultivate more land to be on the safe side.

With this mindset, Tang Wan reclaimed ten acres in one go until she felt that her spiritual energy was almost exhausted and she was feeling somewhat powerless. Only then did Tang Wan stop, meditate on the spot for a cycle, return to the villa to drink a cup of spiritual spring water, rest for a while, and then continue to reclaim new fields.

Tang Wan was preoccupied with the food supplies and knew nothing of what was happening at the Prince Zhan's mansion in the capital, a thousand miles away.

At this moment, the War King's Mansion was bustling with activity.

After the morning court session, the War King returned to his residence without even changing out of his court robes. He then had the steward hand over the blueprints he had drawn overnight, instructing him to quickly find someone to repair the courtyard.

While Tang Wan was busy cultivating the new fields, the craftsmen had already arrived at the War King's Mansion.

When the War King learned that the craftsman had arrived and was listening to the steward explain his requirements in the courtyard, he actually walked over directly to him.

The steward was holding a roll of blueprints and gesturing to several foremen craftsmen: "The wall here needs to be moved back three feet, the foundation for the pavilion needs to be laid properly, and His Highness specifically instructed that the pool should be fed with running water..."

The craftsmen listened attentively, but were also a little nervous, afraid of misunderstanding.

Just then, a steady voice sounded from behind: "If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me directly."

Everyone turned around and saw the War King dressed in a black prince's casual robe, his gaze fixed on the blueprints in their hands.

The craftsmen were startled and hurriedly tried to kneel down to pay their respects.

"No need for formalities," the War King said calmly. He walked over in a few steps, took the blueprints directly from the steward, and personally explained to the head craftsman: "Here, the outer wall of the study will be removed and connected to the adjacent wing room to form a bright and spacious study. The window frames should be made of the most translucent roof tiles, and enough space should be reserved under the windows to place a desk and a soft couch."

His finger moved to the courtyard: "The edge of the pond should be paved with smooth pebbles, and the water depth should not exceed four feet. The pavilion should be built here so that it can see the view in the pond, but is also away from the wind. In addition, the transplanted flowers and trees should be those with long flowering periods and elegant fragrances, and should not be too bright."

He spoke at a steady pace, clearly and logically, explaining every detail thoroughly.

The foreman of craftsmen was initially somewhat apprehensive, but as he listened, his eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly: "Your Highness, rest assured, we understand! We will certainly build this courtyard to be both grand and elegant, just as Your Highness requires!"

The War King nodded slightly and added, "Hurry up with the construction schedule, but be meticulous. Use the best materials. If there are any uncertainties, feel free to ask me at any time."

"Yes! Thank you for your guidance, Your Highness!" the craftsmen replied in unison, their expressions no longer as tense as when they first met.

The War King stood and watched for a while as the craftsmen began to clean up the site before turning and leaving.

The steward following behind watched the prince's retreating figure and sighed inwardly: "The prince truly cares for his future princess to the extreme. This courtyard should probably be built to be unique in the capital."

Meanwhile, Tang Wan, far away in the northern desert, was completely unaware of this, as she was still diligently cultivating new fields in her space.

Finally, all twenty acres of land were reclaimed and sorghum was quickly planted. By this time, Tang Wan's spiritual power was almost completely exhausted.

The intense fatigue forced Tang Wan to stop and sit down. She gently rubbed her throbbing temples and muttered to herself, "It seems that cultivating new fields really can't be rushed."

Tang Wan muttered to herself as she sat down to meditate and rest.

After a short while, once she had recovered somewhat, Tang Wan returned to the villa.

After drinking the spring water and resting, I went upstairs to take a bath and relax.

Tang Wan set a timer while resting, and an hour later, she got up feeling refreshed.

Tang Wan didn't plan to stay in the space any longer to cultivate it; she had other things to do. So she tidied herself up and turned to leave. After leaving the space, Tang Wan had Wang Da drive her to the rouge shop.

The final arrangements for the rouge shop haven't been made yet, and she doesn't know how well Zhuxi is training the two new maids, so she decided to take this opportunity to go and see. Also, Zhuxi's successor hasn't been finalized yet.

The carriage stopped in front of the rouge shop.

It wasn't peak time for customers, so the shop was rather quiet.

As soon as Tang Wan stepped into the store, the sharp-eyed Zhu Xi immediately came to greet her.

"Miss, you've arrived!" Zhu Xi's voice was a little hoarse, and she was obviously tired, but she seemed quite excited.

Zhu Xi was indeed quite excited. She hadn't expected the Tang family to return to the capital so quickly. It was quite unexpected. The person in charge of the shop had been trained almost completely, and the new maid was also getting the hang of things. After a few more days of training, she should be completely fine.

I originally thought I could go back to serve Miss, but I never expected that not only could I go back to Miss, but I could also go back to the capital with her.

I never even dared to dream of it.

While Zhu Xi was paying his respects, his mind was wandering.

Tang Wan nodded slightly to Zhu Xi, her gaze sweeping across the shop. She saw Chun Xing carefully dusting the shelves with a feather duster, while Chun Yu stood quietly by the counter, watching the master craftsman organize the goods and silently memorizing their placement.

"It seems you've put your heart into teaching, not bad." Tang Wan smiled slightly and praised.

Zhu Xi didn't stand on ceremony and replied, "It's all thanks to Miss that we have these opportunities. Chunxing is clever and learns quickly, but she's a bit impulsive sometimes and needs more time to calm down. Chunyu is steady and meticulous; she's done well in bookkeeping and identifying goods, but she's still a bit hesitant to greet customers. But give me some more time, and I'm sure they'll be able to handle things on their own!"

Zhu Xi spoke with full confidence, no longer the boisterous little girl she once was.

Tang Wan said gently, "There's no need to be too hasty. Just take it one step at a time. You should also take care to rest and not overwork yourself."

Zhu Xi hasn't returned to the manor for the past few days. She knows that Zhu Xi is working so hard so that she can return to her side as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, Miss, I'm perfectly healthy!" Zhu Xi replied confidently.

"You know we're being ordered to return to the capital, right?" Tang Wan asked.

Zhu Xi's eyes lit up, and she said happily, "I know! This servant will go back with Miss!"

Seeing that Zhu Xi seemed afraid of not taking her along, Tang Wan smiled and shook her head, saying, "I know! I'll take you back with me! But have you decided who will manage the shop?"

Zhu Xi hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Miss, aren't you going to come and take a look?"

"You decide, I trust you!" Tang Wan replied with a smile.

Zhu Xi was the maid she trusted most besides Er Ya. Er Ya was different from Zhu Xi; she mainly ran errands and fought, while Zhu Xi rose from an ordinary maid to become a manager of the shop.

Tang Wan naturally trusted Zhu Xi's judgment.

Hearing that Tang Wan trusted her so much, Zhu Xi happily replied, "Then let's go with Zhu Yun! I think Zhu Yun might be more suitable for managing the shop right now!"
