Spatial medical concubine, taking the whole family to farm

As soon as the two came over, Wang Yonggui and Xiao Zhenwang hurried forward to meet them.

"Xue girl, you guys are back, the big guys are waiting to pick watermelons."

"Many of them are well-cooked, and I didn't dare to pick them up and sell them casually. I'll wait for you to come back and discuss how to sell them."

Xiao Ningxue replied without thinking, "It's the same as the method of selling cantaloupe, I will sell them all together, village head and patriarch, ask if everyone agrees to this arrangement.

Wang Yonggui stroked his beard and smiled all over his face, "How can I disagree? I only planted melons on a few plots, and each of them earned around two hundred taels~ The big guy is just worried that the watermelon is not easy to store, and I am afraid that the snow girl will lose money.

You guys have never seen cantaloupe before. I really thought that it can be stored for a long time in the cellar just like sweet potatoes. But who has never eaten watermelon? Even planted it. This thing can only be stored for ten days at most. It will be broken.

So this time, the big guy really didn't dare to let Xiao Ningxue collect all of them, for fear that she would lose money if she couldn't save it.

Xiao Ningxue looked determined, "It's okay, the west is no better than the south, the air is dry and windy, and watermelons won't rot if you put them in the cellar for a month."

When Wang Yonggui and Xiao Zhenwang heard this, they all felt that it was reasonable, and immediately felt relieved.

So after an afternoon of work, they sent contracts to Merchant Village and Niujia Village, and Xiao Ningxue bought and sold all the watermelons grown by the villagers in the three villages.

From the looks of it, his appointment was probably deliberately done by someone.

The corners of Wu Chongwen's lips raised slightly, and he said in a low voice, "Move the State Shepherd's Mansion here~ That's better and more conducive to the development of this area.

Xiao Wenzhao came to the West just a few months ago, and he spoke fluently about foreign races. He drank two drinks with Master Ji and Master An in Ji'an County. The aliens and the Central Plains are a family.

This is just cantaloupe, here is watermelon, cantaloupe, and when all these are sold, the villagers in the three brother villages will probably become "thousand taels", and every household can get 1000 taels of silver.

After this matter was decided, Wang Yonggui and the others were busy making arrangements.

After returning home, Xiao Ningxue settled all the cantaloupe money of all the villagers. Each household earned nearly 300 taels more, and about 200 taels less. Such a lot of money was unthinkable before. Thinking, it might not be possible to earn so much in a lifetime, but now following Girl Xue, earning so much in a few months, is really rich.

I have to say that she really has a business mind. She organized ten horse teams to deliver melons to Changning City and Xinkang City. She also rented shops and opened a "fresh fruit shop" in each city. The business is not so good. .

In the evening, Xiao Wenzhao led Xiao Yan and Xiao Han back, carrying several legs of mutton in his hand, saying it was a gift from the local aristocratic family in the city.

And who is this Le Peiyan? It is the father of the deposed Zhennan General Le Sishu, Xiao Shulan's man.

As for the price, like the melon, it depends on the final sales price, and the villagers will not suffer at all.

The family is harmonious and beautiful, enjoying themselves.

Seeing Wu Chongwen's silence, Xiao Wenzhao continued, "Le Peiyan also moved the state pastoral mansion to Ji'an County. I'm afraid this place will be very lively in the future."

As for Le Peiyan, he is not an idiot like his son Le Sishu, but a scheming old fox. Once he takes office, my uncle may have to spend some time dealing with him. '
As Wu Chongwen said this, something came to mind.

"Xiaoxue, sister Ruyun, you are back."

While eating and chatting, Xiao Wenzhao suddenly looked at Wu Chongwen, and said like a report: "Two days ago, the court came with a document, and Le Peiyan has been appointed as the new governor of Cangzhou.'
The state shepherd is the head of a state, equivalent to a high-ranking official in modern times, and Xiao Wenzhao is the governor of Su'an County, but only the mayor, so the official position of the state shepherd is one level higher than the county sheriff.

The whole family was divided into two tables, Xiao Wenzhao and his son, Wu Chongwen's master and servant, and Xiao Shan sat at a table. Wu Chongwen brought a jar of fine wine from Xiao Ningxue's space, and everyone drank and chatted together.

And the cantaloupe left in her portable space, she also plans to sell it slowly.

"Sold so much?" Xiao Ningxue was also quite surprised, "Dong Shi, you are too good, aren't you? Where are they all sold?"

That night, Xiao Ningxue personally cooked and cooked a large pot of braised mutton. The stew was soft and fragrant, and it was extremely delicious.

And the imperial court sent the old fox Le Peiyan here again, and they didn't know what the plan was.

Seeing Xiao Ningxue and Xue Ruyun, they ran over happily.

"I'm back, I'm back, I miss you all." Xiao Ningxue stepped forward with a smile, and put her arms around their shoulders, "How's it going? Have you sold melons for the third time?"
"Yes." Sai Dongshi looked excited, and took out an account book from the bag on his shoulders, "In the past month or so, nearly [-] catties of cantaloupe have been sold. A round of money has been paid to the villagers. Now There are still [-] catties left unfinished."

After hearing this, Xiao Ningxue couldn't help admiring her. The reason why she left so many foam boxes in the cellar for carrying cantaloupe was for them to transport melons to Changning City and Xinkang City. Can't sell that much.

I hope these things have nothing to do with the new emperor, otherwise it means that the new emperor may not fully trust him as the emperor's uncle.

It feels good to think about it.

Mrs. Xiao led Mrs. Dong, and a few young girls sat at the table, chatting and laughing while eating.

The baskets for watermelons have been made up by everyone during this time, and there is no need to buy them separately. They will be picked the next day after all.

"Changning City, Xinkang City, and Xiping City also sold a few thousand catties"
So while walking home, Sai Dongshi reported to Xiao Ningxue all the business matters during this period of time.

In the evening, Sai Dongshi and Xiao Yue, dressed in men's clothes, came back from Ji'an County. They were still in charge of the fresh fruit shop business in the city.

Wu Chongwen is also familiar with Le Peiyan. He was originally the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, but for some reason he was transferred to Cangzhou State Shepherd.

He originally wanted Su'an County to be a fiefdom, but he didn't know whether it was because of the empress dowager's obstruction or because of other reasons. In short, what he thought was a surefire thing, turned out to be unsuccessful in the end.

They also thought that Xiao Ningxue and the others had gone to Xiping City. After all, Wu Chongwen still had business to do here, so no one asked any further questions.

After all, these melons and fruits that are not easy to store will not be able to be planted on such a large area in the future, and she is still reluctant to sell them.

Xiao Wenzhao seemed to have seen through Wu Chongwen's thoughts, and said, "I have made obeisances to several of these Western clans, and with their support, Le Peiyan can't afford troubles, and these Beijing officials have always looked down on Western foreigners. That alone makes it difficult for him to gain a foothold here."

"Uncle is right." Wu Chongwen nodded in agreement, "As long as the Western clan supports you, Le Peiyan will never want to suppress you with his rank."

"That's right." Xiao Wenzhao picked up a piece of mutton, took another sip of his wine, and narrowed his eyes triumphantly, "I'm still hoping that he will arrive sooner, so I can watch him suffer~'

They were talking about state affairs, Xiao Ningxue had already finished her meal, just as she put down her chopsticks, Xue Ruyun was poking her head at the door.

"Hey, Xiaoxue~ Have you finished your meal yet? My brother said that there is something in the melon patch stealing watermelon. We are going to catch it tonight. Do you want to go?"
