Qiao Lan asked Gem to go to the Buddha Hall to fetch her water bladder, which had already flattened a lot yesterday and was bulging at this time.

Feng Qixiang picked up the water that Qiao Lan personally poured for him, drank two sips, and savored it carefully, there was a hint of different sweetness in it, but it was not as strong as yesterday's......

"Does this water have a special effect on Brother Feng?" Qiao Lan looked at him with a solemn expression, and couldn't help but ask more.

Feng Qixiang came back to his senses and said, "It doesn't seem to taste as good as yesterday." To tell you the truth, I still have residual poison in my body, and although acupuncture and medicine can expel the poison, it will take more than ten or twenty years...... I drank Brother Qiao's water yesterday, but I feel much better......"

Well, hearing this, Qiao Lan felt guilty, but only a little, she soothed herself in her heart: It's okay, it's okay, it's not that it can't be cleared, it's just a little slower. Otherwise, if he is cured and I am exposed, I may end up worse than him......

Qiao Lan silently sent Feng Qixiang away with her gaze, and then she received news that two carriages had set off from the opposite door and went nowhere. Qiao Lan said that she already knew: Where else to go, go to Daqingshan to find spring water.

In order to hide people's eyes and ears, Qiao Lan placed two large water tanks full of water in the corner of the Buddhist hall, which is called the beautiful name and prays for the blessing of divine water.

For the next few days, Qiao Lan kept circling around the chili peppers. The chili peppers in the space have grown to one foot, and the chili peppers watered with spiritual spring water in the back garden are also growing well, although they are not as good as those in the space, but overall they are gratifying.

Later, when ripening peppers, Qiao Lan soaked them directly in spring water and then sowed them.

Qiao Lan estimated that the final grown pepper seedlings could be planted on an acre of land.

During this period, Qiao Lan made a ritual in the Buddhist hall, scooped out half of the two jars of blessing divine water, and then filled it, and the scooped water was filled with two large buckets and sprinkled with the incense ashes accumulated in the incense burner during this time. Two buckets of water were taken to the west bank by air and poured into two freshly dug wells. This water is naturally not ordinary water, it is Qiao Lan who has worked hard to scoop it out of the spatial spiritual spring.

The water was only transported out in the morning, and Feng Qixiang appeared again in the afternoon.

These days, I went into the mountains of Daqingshan to look for mountain springs, and occasionally brought back some spring water, but it was just ordinary mountain spring water.

He paid attention to the water of Qiao's house again, no, he came to visit the door every now and then, and entering Qiao's house was as comfortable as visiting his own back garden, and every time he came, he repeatedly challenged Qiao Lan's patience limit.

Qiao Lan was very depressed, Qiao Lan was very confused, she must have seen the hell that day, otherwise how could she feel pitiful.

Qiao Lan received Feng Qixiang in the garden.

Feng Qixiang is still dressed in white, and behind him is a hundred flowers with purple and red, for a while, I really don't know if people are more beautiful than flowers or flowers are more beautiful than people.

Feng Qixiang opened his mouth and asked Qiao Lan what kind of water Yu Dana poured into the well on the west bank.

Qiao Lan couldn't wait to step forward and slap his face, which she naturally wanted to know everything about him, but she had to resist the impulse and said, "Brother Feng, it is just an ordinary well water enshrined in the Buddha hall, which is used to pray for good weather and abundant harvests, just ask God to worship the Buddha." ”

"Brother Qiao, let's also get two buckets for Brother Foolish. ”

"Brother Feng, I'm just praying for peace of mind. ”

"Tut-tut......" Feng Qixiang shook his finger and said, "I don't know what you're doing, but I believe that everything you do is quite meaningful." ”

“……”

In the end, Qiao Lan once again succumbed to Feng Qixiang's coercion and temptation. Qiao Lan asked Chen Yueya to return to the house, and then took Feng Qixiang to the inner courtyard, and let him watch the water scoop out of the two large vats, and fill it in under his nose after scooping.

After Feng Qixiang sent someone to transport the water back, he wanted to taste it, but when he saw a thick layer of incense ash underneath, he flinched.

Feng Wu is a person who has tasted all kinds of poisons, just a little fragrant ash, he scooped a cup with a cup, drank two sips, smashed it and smashed the water behind his mouth, "Not bad, it's very sweet......"

In order to detoxify, Feng Qixiang also let go, scooped out a cup, drank it in one gulp, it was delicious, but the sweet taste was so light that it was almost ......

In the end, the bucket of water was sent to Zhuangzi in Lishan County.

I went to Qiao's house in the morning to ask for a bucket of water, and at noon, I heard Zhou Changle say that someone had sent twenty large wine jars to Qiao's house, Feng Qixiang patted his sleeves again and walked to the opposite door.

Qiao Lan had inspected the jar that the loess root had specially fired for her, and it fully met her requirements. She was talking to Loess Gen about the altar, and Feng Qixiang came.

He went to see if there was anything in the jar for the first time, and after finding that it was all empty, he stood silently beside Qiao Lan. Qiao Lan ignored it, and when he was transparent, he continued to talk to Loess Root.

When Qiao Lan and Loess Gen talked about the additional three hundred jars, Feng Qixiang added quietly, "Master also wants three hundred!" Qiao Lan wanted to continue to ignore Feng Qixiang, but he was indomitable and said again, "Master also wants three hundred, exactly the same!"

In the end, Loess Root was ecstatic and left with the deposit of six hundred jars.

In the afternoon of this day, Yu Dana asked the six people who went to pick dogwood and other mountain goods to send things over, loaded two carts full, after weighing, there were only more and no less, and Qiao Lan also settled the money according to the actual weight, and spent eighty-five taels of silver.

Wang Xiao has been paying attention to the situation here, he saw two full cars going to the back door of Qiao's house, and hurriedly went to find Zhou Changle, and Zhou Changle went to find Feng Qixiang.

The delivery person had just left, and the things were still on the flat ground at the back door before they had time to enter the warehouse, and Feng Qixiang walked over leisurely. This is the third time today that he has come uninvited.

Feng Qixiang looked at them one by one, and the pie was like being at his own home, and after reading it, he asked, "What is this for?" Do I also want to prepare a copy. ”

"No, I'll give you half of it. "If it weren't for the chili peppers, the ghost would have divided you.

"Very good, very good!" the demon Feng Qixiang waved his sleeves and walked away lightly, not taking a single cloud with him.

When Feng Qixiang was poisonous, although he was crooked, he still maintained a cold attitude, but now he is more and more like a scoundrel.

Qiao Lan was deeply affected, turned to Ye Feitian, and asked with a serious face, "Do you know where there are Taoist priests with high mana? ”

“……”

Qiao Lan was busy with chili peppers, and at the same time, Yu Dana also arranged for people to build a wall on the west bank, and invited people from the coolie brigade, No. 100 people, to use the big trees that had been cut down to drive piles and plant thorns along the line of the Yaoshui River on the west bank, completely blocking the eyes of all kinds of probing on the east bank.

After that, after half a month's work, more than a dozen long-term workers also completely turned over hundreds of acres of land on the west bank, leaving only two dirt hills in the north, which Qiao Lan planned to use to build a house, and then, Qiao's family bought another round of soil, and after five or six hundred people struggled for two days, the newly turned land was covered with a thick layer of humus.

Feng Qixiang asked Steward Tong to learn from Qiao's family to make mud on the big Zhuangzi, Steward Tong kept an eye on it, and ran to Qiao's house to ask Qiao Lan what was the point of making the mud, and whether they Zhuangzi wanted to draw a gourd in the same way.

If it weren't for the poor housekeeper Tong's old age and still working for the reckless young master, Qiao Lan wouldn't want to take care of him, "The West Bank has been deserted for many years, and the land fertility is not enough, so it is necessary to cover a new layer of mud, your Zhuangzi's land has been planted, so there is no need to use new mud." Of course, it would be better to use it. ”

"Why use mud from the woods?

"Not with the mud from the forest, but with the top layer of mud in the forest......"

"What's the difference?"

Qiao Lan turned around and left, no longer explaining, and if she went further, she couldn't explain it even more.

Steward Tong went back to resume his life knowing half-understood, Feng Qixiang listened to it and asked him to arrange for someone to make mud, Steward Tong was anxious, "Young Master, don't say anything about it." "He also said that it would be better to use it" "......"

Landlord Zhao was planning something with Lu Duojin, and when they heard that the Yang family's Feng Gongzi also learned from the Qiao family to arrange for someone to buy dirt to go to Da Zhuangzi in Lishan County, the two were silent for a long time.

Landlord Zhao asked Lu Duojin what he thought.

Lu Duojin said his guess, "Feng Gongzi also followed in the footsteps of the Qiao family, either he saw through the strategy of the young master of the Qiao family or the two families formed an alliance. ”

"Alliance?" "Landlord Zhao exclaimed, the Qiao family has formed an alliance with Feng Gongzi, this is not good news for him, if Young Master Feng makes a move, he will not be able to get the West Bank, "Then what should I do next?"

"Master, it's better to follow the young master of the Qiao family......" Lu Duojin proposed in a low voice, but he knew that Landlord Zhao would definitely oppose it. Sure enough, before he finished speaking, the landlord of Zhao spat on his face, "Fart, I am a big man of the Zhao family, and ......I learn from a milky little ghost who has not dried up."

"Master, it's not for you to learn from him, then the young master of the Qiao family doesn't grow cabbage, you have planted some in the field, which is more precocious than the one in his field, we might as well see what he does next, if there is any money, you might as well learn it......"

"What you said is not unreasonable, but the mud ......"

"It's not a farming slack now, those long-term workers are idle and have nothing to do, let them pick up the mud, just cover the field where the cabbage is planted with a layer. ”

"Well, that's right!"

"In addition, I also heard that the young master of the Qiao family also harvests dried dogwood, dried peppercorns, dried pepper, dried flax and ginger ......"

"This is a few dozen taels of silver. ”

"If you don't use it, you won't lose money when you ship it to the customs office. ”

"That's it. ”

Landlord Zhao didn't know that because of the batch of nearly 1,000 catties of goods collected by Qiao Lan, the price of those things had risen, and in the end he had to spend double the price to buy the next batch of goods that were not of good quality.

It has been more than a month since she bought the West Bank, and Qiao Lan is considering when she will go to Lishan County to visit the head snake - the county magistrate, in the name of gratitude, to set up a set of friendships, and it will be cheaper to act in the future.

Originally, I wanted to wait for the West Bank to gradually become more and more visible before leaving, but now that the eyebrows are there, it seems that the things cannot be done.

Qiao Lan can't pull away, it doesn't mean that Zhao Qishan, the county commander, can't pull away.

On this day, Qiao Lan was looking at the cabbage growing on the west bank, and she realized that she had made a very serious mistake.

In this era, although there were not as many varieties of cabbage as in later generations, they were not single.

When Qiao Lan bought cabbage seeds, she only said cabbage seeds, not what kind of cabbage seeds, because she wanted a lot of them, and they were all stockpiles, and the results could be imagined.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the cabbage seeds bought by each family are packed separately, and when the long-term workers sow the seeds, different seeds are planted separately and in different places, and the clumps of cabbage needed to make kimchi still account for the majority.
