At the end of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, it is the hottest time of the year in Los Angeles, as soon as Liu Yuxin and Du Juan entered a teahouse, the comfortable cool breeze greeted them, leaving hot and dry, alternating between cold and hot, so that the beads of sweat on Liu Yuxin's forehead quickly disappeared.

"It's time for the hottest." ???? Liu Yuxin raised her head to look at the sun and squinted, it was not yet noon, there were only three or three people on the street, and most of them were resting at home. I wanted to wait in the teahouse until after noon, and then the two of them went shopping, but when I thought of the steamer-like weather outside the window, it made people shudder involuntarily, not for anything else, Liu Yuxin has a slight cleanliness habit, and the weather outside, you mainly go outdoors, and your body seems to be covered with a layer of greasy sweat, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.

"yes, let's go home." ???? Liu Yuxin spread her hands helplessly, today's incident gave her a shock, that is, the young master of the Luo family, there are many women who love her, and I haven't heard of anyone organizing a group to visit, too, those young ladies are not in harmony with each other, because Luo Shaozhu looks at whoever he looks at more, he will also be noisy, and sometimes he can disregard his face in the party, and let each other's maids tear apart, and the admirers on the eldest brother's side are much better, at least they are very united, she and her cousin can't answer the eldest brother's famous poems, and they are treated as monsters.

The carriage stopped and stopped, and soon returned to the house, Liu Yuxin was covered in sweat, greeted the porter, and took Du Juan back to his yard, Du Juan had already come back from outside, sitting in the side hall, and Mama Zhao did not communicate with each other, they were both sitting.

"Princess. You're back, and the old slave thinks you'll have to go until the next day, so I'll prepare water. ”???? When Mama Zhao saw Liu Yuxin coming back, she stood up diligently, gave Gui Zhi a look, and walked out of the door quickly, muttering in her heart, the princess's new maid, this one is called Peach, and her temperament is too cold. I won't answer a single sentence if I ask ten questions. made her very embarrassed, she just wanted to talk about homely things, and she didn't mean anything else, they were all the princess's subordinates. Do you have to be so arrogant? Looks like looking for a chance. This is mentioned to the princess. The maid around her, like this, is really inappropriate.

"Yes." ???? Liu Yuxin and Mama Zhao nodded. Then he turned his head to the wheat, "How is it, is it done?" ”???? In fact, Liu Yuxu just asked, because he never doubted Maizi's ability to do things, and Maizi's ghost Rakshasa was also outstanding, and when the eldest brother left, he confessed that if there was anything he didn't want to do or encountered difficulties, he would just push it all to her to solve.

"Princess, the slave maid ran a total of four pawnshops, and according to what you said, all of them died." ???? Maizi opened a small package, which contained a silver ticket and a ticket from the pawnshop. The wrench of the box of the chopper mountain bandits, most of them are gold and silver, and they are not valuable, only a few white jade, jade and ruby wrenches, which can be worth a little silver, and they can't stand a large number, and the box is full of three thousand taels, for this number, Liu Yuxin is very satisfied. The housing prices in Los Angeles are not comparable to those in Kyoto, and you can definitely buy a small farm in the surrounding area for 3,000 taels.

Speaking of these stolen things, Liu Yuxin also has to thank this will come to the north, I passed through all kinds of mountains along the way, the donations of those mountain kings, these people live by robbing houses and houses on weekdays, and it just so happens that they will meet a lot, in line with the idea of eliminating harm for the people, Liu Yuxin has cleaned up these bandit leaders, of course, their gold and silver treasures have also been received by Liu Yuxin space, just taking advantage of this opportunity Liu Yuxin to let the wheat take out to the pawnshop to die, for sale of stolen goods.

Now is the time when the country is in crisis, the more the merrier for money, it just so happens that Liu Yuxin did not have the idea of greedy for ink for these robbed things, just like these things turned into cash, and then invested in the construction of the army.

"Do a good job, and the rest of the errand of contact depends on Steward Wang????." Liu Yuxin couldn't help nodding, thinking about the next step in his heart, the southern border pass, Muyang City has not been taken yet, the battle is tragic, Xuanxuan Kingdom may not have a sudden attack when, grain and grass are the top priority, and it must not be delayed.

Mama Zhao called hot water, and Liu Yuxin washed up. People get sleepy as soon as they arrive in summer, become extremely lazy, and today they got up early in the morning and sent the uncle's family to the carriage, and it is estimated that they can now go fast to Xiaofeng County???

"Princess, eat some fruit." ???? Du Juan washed a large plate of fruit with a fruit plate, Qingli looked at it, and still scooped a green apple, which is a specialty of Los Angeles, it doesn't grow big, it is still green when it is ripe, and the side that is exposed to the sun is a little yellow, but the taste is okay and it will not be astringent.

"Yes, yes, crispy and sweet, you can taste it too." ???? These fruits are soaked in well water, cold and sweet, and said to be green apples, all of which are produced by Liu Yuxin in a space, and the taste is naturally better than those sold here. Since eating the space fruit, Liu Yuxin's mouth has been raised, and she rarely eats what she buys outside, and she always feels that the taste is wrong???

"Princess, the apples in Los Angeles are so sweet, they are better than the red apples in Kyoto." ???? Du Juan was not polite, clicking and biting, squinting her eyes, enjoying her face, her own princess has always been generous in terms of eating, she follows next to her, she can always eat delicious, her favorite is the peach produced in Los Angeles, which is big and sweet, and has a lot of juice.

"What's for dinner?" ???? Liu Yuxin threw the apple core in the small bucket of garbage, thinking in her heart, she was in a hot summer, she always felt that it was not appetizing enough, she had been eating spicy food and was afraid of fire, she stayed in Kyoto for more than four years, and came to Los Angeles, but she was not accustomed to the water and soil.

"Princess, what do you want to eat, slave maid go to the kitchen????." Du Juan also finished eating the apple, and her eyes were looking at the melon in the fruit bowl, the apple was too small, and she always felt that she hadn't tasted good when she ate one, so it was gone, and she wanted to eat some more, but her own princess didn't move, and she was embarrassed, a slave, she was still so greedy as a servant.

"Let's divide the melons too." ???? As soon as Liu Yuxin saw Du Juan's girl's expression, she knew what she was thinking, and she must have felt that the apples were not enough to eat. Looking at the way her eyes lit up, it was a unique expression of a foodie, and she felt that she was a fellow practitioner, but after so many years of training, her Taoism was relatively high, and she would not be seen.

"It's better to eat cold skin!" ???? Liu Yuxin clapped her hands, she ate roasted fairy grass a few days ago, and today she suddenly thought of another snack, how could she forget the snack of Liangpi? In modern times, if you don't have an appetite, you will buy one. Later, I heard that the cold skin was washed out by the machine. The sanitary situation could not be guaranteed, so she also bought a book to study for this purpose.

There are two ways to cool the skin, one is to wash the face, and the advantage is that you can eat gluten. But wait a few hours. There is also a type that does not require washing of the face. It can be cooked immediately, and for the sake of simplicity and convenience, Liu Yuxin decided to use the latter method????

Make cold skin and eat. In fact, there is no technical content, that is, mix flour and starch one to one, then stir evenly, spread on a plate with thin oil on the flat bottom, steam it for a while on high heat to get out of the pot, cut into wide strips, add soybean sprouts blanched with water, cucumber shreds and other ingredients, you can eat spicy and put more chili oil, Liu Yuxin has two cans of sesame paste in the space, add cold skin and stir it when you eat, so think about it, you can salivate.

"Wow, Princess, that's so easy!" ???? Juzhi's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands, "It's so simple, the slave can also make it, why don't you let the slave cook at night?" ”

"Well, let Mama Zhao do it, you can learn it on the side." ???? Liu Yuxin looked at this excited maid with suspicion, and always felt that she was not very reliable. In fact, the cold skin can also be improved, made with mung bean flour, it becomes a cold powder, and then mixed with chili oil is as delicious, there is a very popular snack in modern times, northern Sichuan cold powder, Liu Yuxin also likes it.????

After discussing what to eat at night, Liu Yuxin felt comfortable, otherwise she would have to worry about her own food, so she asked the maids not to disturb, she lay on the bed by herself, and slept beautifully????

When he woke up, Gui Zhi came in to report that Steward Wang had returned from outside the mansion and had an urgent matter to see???

"Princess, the old slave listens to your orders, go to the tooth shop to inquire, there are only one or two households in the courtyard of the three entrances, and most of them are two entrances, but there is one place, the old slave looks very suitable, it is a large courtyard of the five entrances." ???? Steward Wang wiped his sweat, the people of the tooth line gave the five-entry Zhuangzi, just very close to Xiaofeng County, two hours back and forth by car and horse, he went to visit it, and felt that it was very suitable, and there were two hundred acres of fertile land around, if it could be bought, the grain harvest after the autumn was his own, which was very cost-effective.

"You go and see, what do you think? With such a good courtyard, why is the main family in a hurry to change hands? ”???? In less than two months, the grain in the field should be harvested, and it is not suitable to sell it now, and the fields generally have to wait until after the autumn harvest.

"It's not a rumor!" ???? Steward Wang sighed, he was listening to the people when he went out today, saying that Xuanyuan Kingdom was really coming this time, and he wanted to attack Pingyang City, if it was before, the people were accustomed to it, and they didn't care, Xuanyuan Kingdom had to provoke several times a year, and every time he was abused back to the nest by the 300,000 troops under General Chunyu, but this time it was different, Muyang in the south has fallen, if Pingyang is enemy, then the Jin Kingdom is a pie squeezed by both ends, and there is more than auspicious.

Zhuang on the staff is fifty miles away, in the early years to Los Angeles to break through, in fact, home in the northwest, in recent years is planning to return to the hometown, a look at the signs are not right, immediately contact the tooth line, want to sell their own Zhuangzi and fields, helpless five into the big yard, the good field is twenty two acres, two hundred acres is four thousand taels, plus five into the yard also four thousand taels, a total of eight thousand taels, not a small amount.

"I see????." I only received Zhao Mingxuan's letter last night, and the rumors spread to Los Angeles today, no matter how you look at it, it is the result of the instigation of people with intentions, the purpose is to make the price of grain soar, so that the grain and grass in Pingyang will be more difficult to solve, and the spies of Xuanyuan State who stayed in Jin Kingdom are really trying their best.?

Liu Yuxin rubbed her hands, and there was an urge to rob it, this feeling would be addictive, no wonder Bai Ruochen was not short of silver and wanted to be a thief, she felt that she should also be a nickname, relying on the grain and grass in her own space, it was a little difficult to fill it in and provide material security for the 300,000 army.

Over there in Pingyang, the landlords who want to make a fortune by disaster, the grain depot is full, and those who are rich and unkind have no guilt in their hearts when they rob it, so much grain and grass, it is better to support the army, there is a country and a home, don't think so much.

"Princess, look?" ???? Steward Wang hesitated for a moment, and saw that his young lady was distracted, thinking that he was dissatisfied with the price, "Miss, in fact, the big courtyard with five entrances is still very magnificent, and the old slave will definitely not be able to take eight thousand taels if he is not in a hurry to sell it." ”

"The price is good, and the location should also be seen, and if it is suitable????, it will be taken." Liu Yuxin washed up, applied some moisturizing facial grease, and asked Maizi to go to the village with him to have a look, back and forth for two hours, without too much delay, he will definitely be able to come back before dark, since there is news, he will hurry up to take a look, and before leaving Los Angeles to go to Xiaofeng County, this matter must be resolved.

The carriage went all the way to the north, and it took about an hour, and this side was close to Xiaofeng County, that is, it was one step closer to Pingyang City, and Liu Yuxin felt that it was better to be in this location. The 200 acres of fields on this side of the village are scattered all around, and wheat is planted in the fields, and the bullish trend is good, and the so-called fertile land is indeed worth this price.

In the large courtyard of Wujin, with green bricks and green tiles, Steward Wang stepped forward to call the door, and after a while, an old man opened the door and muttered, "Who, who's coming?" ”??

"Uncle, we were introduced to the yard by someone from the tooth shop????." Liu Yuxin glanced inside, the people were busy, some people also had a burden, it seems that as the tooth pedestrian said, the owner of this Zhuangzi is in a hurry to sell because he wants to return to his hometown, if this is the case, the price may be reduced.

"Oh, ma'am, please come in." ???? The old man rubbed his eyes, he was a little dazzled when he was old, and the lady in front of him in a white dress looked like a fairy, if he hadn't seen her followed by a cold-faced maid, he thought that he had met an immortal in the mountain and descended to earth.

"I beg you to inform me, my princess wants to see Zhao Yuanwai and talk about Zhuangzi????." Steward Wang was very upright and put a handful of copper in the old man's hand, and the old man suddenly disappeared like a gust of wind, leaving a few people standing in place in embarrassment.

"Hehe, miss, countryman, I have never seen the world." ???? Steward Wang ran away like this when he saw his subordinates, touched his head, and said embarrassedly. But this family is really real, give the copper plate and immediately go to call someone, when he came in the morning, he didn't see this old man so enthusiastic. (To be continued......)
