Chapter 246 Just want to do something for the common people

Linger thought that when she grew up and had the ability, she would look for the parents who abandoned her.

Actually, it doesn't matter if you look for it or not. She is happy like a princess now, so it doesn't make much sense to look for it or not.

October in the golden autumn is another harvest season. There was no news about the increase in food taxes due to the war.

The three tenant farmers of Qiao's family came early to hand in the grain. It is really a blessing to be a tenant of Qiao's family.

In addition to handing over food, they also asked to see Qiao Mai, which made her very puzzled.

When she met them in the front hall, Qiqi, the three tenant farmers, knelt down for her, and Qiao Mai hurriedly got them up.

"Just tell me if you have something to do, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you"

"Boss, we, can we grow greenhouse vegetables with you?"

"This is what happened,"

"We also want to make a fortune and have our own fields, so can you teach us?"

"Yes, there's nothing wrong with it,"

The three tenant farmers looked at each other happily, "Thank you, my boss."

"Are you going to plant all the land in your hands with vegetables?"

"No, we want to plant first. Food is still the main thing. I heard that the cost of raw materials per acre of land is very high. Our families don't have that, so it's hard to make a lot of money."

"Well, it seems that I have used my heart and know that the investment cost is high"

"I beg my boss to help us,"

"Okay, Mingbu, I will provide you with the cost price, and prepare the rest by yourself. I will send a few women to the field to teach you."

"Ai, ai, thank you, my boss, thank you, my boss"

The first batch of people who followed Qiao Mai to grow greenhouse vegetables finally appeared. She didn't hum, she just wanted to see if there were any smart people.

The three sharecroppers each set aside 5 mu to grow vegetables, and the others planted winter wheat.

They learned from the mothers-in-law, mastered the essentials of growing vegetables in winter, how to keep vegetables free from insects, and several formulas for treating insects, all of which were also taught to them.

Qiao Mai also provided them with high-quality seeds. It just so happens that their own vegetables are not enough to sell in winter. With the addition of these three companies, the diners don't have to worry about it.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the vegetables in the greenhouse in the backyard are also growing seedlings.

Especially leeks, which grow the fastest, and so do those from those companies. Looking at the green vegetables, they seemed to see hope.

These companies are really hardworking, and they study hard with their mother-in-law. When it comes to growing vegetables, they don't know how to grow vegetables, but they really have to work hard to make the vegetables the same as Qiao's.

When they saw the vegetables sprouting from their fields, they all wiped away their tears happily.

The host is really kind, not to mention that they have no secrets, they also provide them with materials to build a greenhouse, and allow their vegetables to be sold in Qiaoji's small shop.

In this way, their sales are solved, and they save a lot of effort, and they don't have to drive around to sell.

However, Qiao Mai doesn't sell vegetables to them for nothing. She gets 10% of the profit. As much as her vegetables are sold, they will sell as much as their money. The price goes up and down, so they are prepared.

These three families are honest, and they agreed as soon as the boss said, without any hesitation.

After Yuan Jiaqi arranged the soldiers, he went home frequently, and all the pine trees were planted by the end of June.

Except for the soldiers, everyone else went home one after another.

If you want to start work, you have to wait until next spring. At that time, you have to pruning, watering, fire prevention, and a bunch of other things.

I haven't been home for several months, and Yuan Jiaqi made out with his wife all night as soon as he got home.

"I'm sorry, my lady, I've been too busy over there. I've worked hard for you these past few months. Without your strong support, I wouldn't be able to get promoted as a husband."

"A further promotion is also a county magistrate"

"I don't want to be promoted yet, I just want to stay in She County for the rest of my life,"

"Why?"

"I have made some achievements in Shexian County now, and I don't want others to get free food."

"Let me say it first. In the future, when you become a big official, you will go to the capital or other places. I won't go. I'm in Tianshui Town"

"The husband will go home to see you, you can rest assured that the husband will never get dirty and mess with you,"

Qiao Mai curled his mouth, "You don't want to touch flowers, but it doesn't mean that flowers won't touch you. Has the Qu family looked for you?"

"No, it should be because the higher ups put pressure on his family, they dare not make any more troubles, I haven't seen Miss Qu appearing for several months"

Qiao Mai turned around and took out a book-thick paper from under the kang mat, and put it on the side of his head.

"Let's see when we get back to She County"

"What?"

"The planning of the workshop needs to be prepared now. Soon the pine trees will become useful. At that time, the workshop will be needed to cut the fat, pick the pine cones, and fry the pine nuts."

"Miss, you are so cruel, my Yuan family can have such a lady, it is really a blessing from Sanshengxiu"

Qiao Mai gave him a white look, "Sleep! It's almost dawn"

On the second day, Qiao Mai asked the kitchen to cook a table of good dishes, and everyone celebrated for Yuan Jiaqi.

The old man was very emotional, "It's a good family"

"exist"

"I didn't expect you to be promoted so quickly, jumping two grades in a row, promising, promising."

"Isn't it thanks to my wife? Otherwise, how could it be my turn?"

"Well, it's good that you know that any family member of an official is not as good as your wife. If she hadn't fully supported you, transporting medicine and giving money, the emperor probably wouldn't have seen your good."

"Students just want to do something for the common people. It doesn't matter whether they are promoted or not. They just hide from the world in the north, so they don't get used to the intrigues in the court."

"Well, I think the same way as a teacher. No matter where I am, as long as I can benefit the people, it is fine. When I arrive in the capital, I may not be able to do practical things for the people. It is better to be here."

"Yes"

Qiao Mai rolled his eyes at the two of them, "Don't just talk, the food will be finished in a while."

"Haha, don't talk anymore, eat vegetables, eat vegetables"

Yuan Jiaqi only stayed at home for three days before returning to She County. When he left, there was light snow in the sky.

The snow in Shexian County is heavier than that in Tianshui Town. When he returned to Shexian County, it was covered with white snow everywhere, and this place has become a snow kingdom.

Yuan Jiaqi was not in a hurry to go back to the yamen, he took six guards and went to the forest to have a look.

Those pine trees stand tall in the snow, and the wind can't blow them. The white of the snow and the green of the pine form a sharp contrast.

It’s rare to see green in the winter here, and it’s still in patches. It seems that what the lady said is true, pine trees are very suitable for planting in the north.

As soon as he returned to the yamen, he didn't do anything, and first looked at the plan made by the lady.

Nodding while watching, it is really too detailed. If the plan is followed by the lady, it can solve the employment problem of hundreds of people in She County.

The establishment of the workshop here can also drive the economy of She County.

It would be great if the lady can solve the problem of the people here growing food for one season, so that no one will migrate south in the future.

If the population is retained, the natural economy will increase.

He sighed, the lady is not a fairy, she can't know everything, here is the climate, and the soil, how could the lady do these things.

Because Qiao Mai has three sheep at home, he often goes to the space to practice.

Now her cultivation base is just a little short, and she can form a pill.

It has been snowing for a few days, and she has also practiced in space for several days. You have never seen thunder in a snowy day, have you?

The people of Tianshui Town met today. Thunderstorms in a snowy day are really unheard of.

The reason is because Qiao Mai formed the alchemy in the space, and she doesn't know about the outside world. After forming the alchemy, her whole person's temperament is more immortal than before.

Every move is like a fairy giving a pill, spotless, walking like stepping on clouds, light and light.

According to the practice book, the lifespan of the foundation building period is 100 years, and the lifespan of the alchemy period is 500 years.

Thinking about when she was 500 years old, the children were all turned into a handful of dry bones, and she felt uneasy.

She has to upgrade the level of the elixir quickly. When the time comes, she will refine a batch of high-level longevity pills, so that her children can live a few more years and enjoy life more.
