Kim Sung-woo exited the room.

……

Luoyang City is not in March, and it is another spring rain. The spring rain is like silk, dyed with spring. Luoyang City, Xintan Lake, weeping willows and green, drizzle, on the construction site of Hongchen Inn, workers are still busy wearing clothes.

This is the third day after the start of construction, and the demolition of the buildings in the construction area is complete, and the workers are laying the foundation. From a distance, the entire building complex has a preliminary scale.

She Yi did not use his later architectural concepts and techniques to guide the construction of this Red Dust Inn, in fact, the level of ancient architects was similar to that of later engineers, and the ancient ones were often more professional. In these years, there is no tofu scum project, and everyone takes money to do things according to their conscience.

The supervisors of the Red Dust Inn are Skinny Monkey and Shopkeeper Jiang, and the two take turns supervising the construction site.

In the past two or three days, a story has been quietly circulated among the people of Luoyang City...... On the evening of the 28th, someone saw a huge water monster on the surface of Xintan Lake.

Some people say that this water monster is several zhang long and as thick as a bucket...... The face is hideous, and the whole body is full of golden light, as if it is made of gold......

Some people also say that this water monster is more than ten zhang long, a head is as huge as a hill, surrounded by smoke and fog, and has the magic of soaring clouds and fog.

Others say that it is a monster with a human head and a fish, holding a spear, and when it sees a person, it throws the spear in its hand and shoots the person it sees......

There are many versions of this rumor......

In addition, there is also the smoke from the ancestral grave of a certain family, or the ganoderma lucidum growing on the beams of the old house...... Or, who has a child and can speak when he lands......

When a rumor comes out of one person's mouth, it feels like nothing, but after several flips, when it comes out of the mouth of 10,000 people, it has extraordinary significance, and everyone is golden.

In less than two days after these rumors circulated in Luoyang, these rumors spread to the capital city of Bianjing...... Soon, the officials in charge of the relevant projects hurriedly reported the matter.

This spring rain gradually stopped at noon. Although the sky is still cloudy, the temperature is much warmer, and the spring rain is as expensive as oil.

In the backyard of Jiafu in Xintan Lake, She Yi and Ruoruo walked out of the laboratory room next to the greenhouse. Both of them had happy smiles on their faces, and they talked in low voices as they walked. If you listen carefully, you will hear the two words that appear most frequently in their words: a grenade and a mine.

After the two entered the main hall, they changed their clothes and walked out in less than a stick of incense.

"Ah Fu, prepare the carriage, my uncle and I are going out."

Ruoruo shouted to Ah Fu, and Ah Fu hurriedly entered the stable and prepared the carriage.

While She Yi and Ruoruo were waiting for the carriage, Ruoruo kept making comparisons to She Yi with their little hands. Something seems to be being told. Ah Fu quickly prepared the carriage, She Yi and Ruoruo got into the carriage, and Ah Fu drove the carriage out of Jiafu and headed towards the north gate.

Outside the north gate, ten miles away, there is a small fork in the official road, the main road is still the official road, Lingyi, is a small road, the road is not wide, the narrow place, just enough to accommodate a carriage to pass.

However, the road surface is smooth, and many places are repaired in these days.

Inside the carriage, She Yi and Ruoruo were still talking in a low voice, but instead of grenades and mines, they became water monsters in Xintan Lake.

"Uncle, is there really a water monster in the lake?"

Ruoruo asked curiously.

"Theoretically, there are no conditions for the appearance of water monsters, but in practice, ...... There is no wind and no waves, since there are rumors, it is possible to exist. ”

She Yi said lightly.

"Yes. Still, I'm a little curious...... Why don't we sneak into the next water and see what the monster looks like? ”

Ruoruo's eyes blinked.

"In case the water monster is real, it will eat you at once......"

She Yi smiled.

"If you are scared of me?"

Ruoruo said disapprovingly.

The small windows in front and back of the carriage were open, and Ah Fu could hear it, and She Yi and Ruoruo were talking.

"Young Master, Miss, that's not a water monster, it's an auspicious omen. I heard that Ganoderma lucidum was born on the beam of the backyard of Zhanju's house, and the Ganoderma lucidum was the size of a bowl, and someone from the government blocked the scene yesterday afternoon. ”

Ah Fu opened his mouth and said seriously.

"Ah Fu, you take this seriously, obviously fooling people, who is not the ancestral tomb and is still smoking......"

Ruoruo giggled......

First of all, according to the popular science given to her by She Yi, Ganoderma lucidum belongs to wood rot fungi, which generally grows next to oak trees and other broad-leaved tree stumps, and likes to grow in places with high vegetation density, short light, fertile topsoil, and damp and loose soil. The growth conditions of Ganoderma lucidum are very important, and light, temperature, humidity, and air permeability are indispensable conditions for the growth of Ganoderma lucidum.

The backyard of the Zhanju family obviously does not have such Lingzhi living conditions. In addition, reishi mushrooms are different from mushrooms, which take a certain amount of time to grow, and cannot emerge overnight.

And Zhanju's Ganoderma lucidum grew to the size of the mouth of the bowl before it was discovered...... So why didn't you find out before Ganoderma lucidum was smaller than the mouth of the bowl?

"Miss Ruoruo, this can't be fake, if Lingzhi is fake, why should the government protect it?"

Ah Fu heard Ruoruo refute his point of view and argued a little.

"I didn't say that the lingzhi was fake, Miss Ben said that the lingzhi was not born on the beam."

Ruoruo said.

"Miss, where did that come from?"

Ah Fu asked curiously.

"Isn't it okay to buy one and glue it on?"

If you don't think so.

"This ...... This ......"

Ah Fu's words were blocked all of a sudden......

"Also...... Or is the young lady smart...... You can think of such a method...... It's just that I heard that the government has reported the news to the imperial court, if it is found to be false...... It is a great crime to deceive the court. ”

"Ah Fu...... Get in a good hurry. ”

She Yi said.

"Well, the villain got it...... The villain is in a good hurry. ”

……

She Yi went out of the city this time, and the place he went to was the Red Medicine Villa, the purpose of which was to check the villa and produce mines on a small scale. The gunpowder of the experiment, in these days, has increased its power by another level.

At the same time, explosives were concocted. Explosives are essentially gunpowder, but gunpowder used specifically for grenades and mines.

The carriage followed the rugged path into a small ditch, and after climbing a few small hills, a complex of buildings emerged from the lush woods in front of it, and on the tall and bright gates were written four new characters - Easy Villa.

This Xiaoyao Villa is the Red Medicine Villa that She Yi came to this time, and at She Yi's request, the original name was changed to a new name.

At the gate, there were four or five servants and seven or eight maids, all of whom were newly purchased by An Yixue. An Yixue and Bingbing stood in front of them, calmly watching the direction of She Yi's carriage......

The carriage came to an abrupt halt, the curtain was lifted, and She Yi and Ruoruo jumped out of the carriage.

"Childe, Miss Ruoruo, it's been hard all the way."

An Yixue stepped forward and smiled slightly.

"Miss An has also worked hard to deal with Zhuangzi's affairs these days......"

She Yi also smiled slightly.

"The slave (little maid) meets the son, the young lady ......"

The four servants and seven or eight maids knelt down and saluted She Yi and Ruoruo collectively.

"Get up, see me later, just make a bow......"

She Yi raised her hand and told them all to stand up.

"Thank you, Miss!"

The men stood up.

"Childe, let me show you around......"

An Yixue walked beside She Yi and Ruoruo.

"Okay...... Let's go in first......"

She Yi snorted, and several people entered the gate. I saw that the entrance is a zigzag verandah, and the stones under the steps are spread into a road. There are two or three small rooms above, one bright and two dark, and there are beds and chairs in them. There is a small door from the inside room, and out there is the backyard, where there are large pear blossoms and plantains. There were two more small regressions. A gap suddenly opens under the wall of the backyard, the clear spring is a faction, the ditch is only a few feet, poured into the wall, around the edge of the house to the front yard, circling under the bamboo.

This is the first time She Yi and Ruoruo have come here after the renovation of Xiaoyao Villa. She Yi and Ruoruo couldn't help but praise An Yixue when they saw the various exquisite arrangements inside.

An Yixue does have some means and some skills, and she can actually transform this second-hand mountain villa into what it is now in just a few days, and the means are indeed extraordinary......

Entering the second courtyard, the courtyard is surrounded by pink walls, green willows hang around, three weeping flower gatehouses, and verandahs are copied on all sides. In the courtyard, the Yong road is connected, the mountains and stones are embellished, and the five hugging buildings hang the two words "Yixiang" plaque. The whole courtyard is magnificent, graceful and luxurious, the garden is splendid, clear and exquisite, the backyard is full of roses, treasures, and a pool.

An Yixue took She Yi and Ruoruo all the way to the backyard, sent away the maid, and walked into a bamboo forest, in which there was a row of buildings.

The buildings are newly renovated.

"Childe, all the things you asked the thin monkey to buy are put here......"

An Yixue walked to the door of a room, opened a lock, pushed the door in, and the house was filled with a strong atmosphere.

The smell is the smell of sulfur and saltpeter.

"Childe, what do you want these things for?"

An Yixue looked at She Yi sideways, a little curious in her heart, what did She Yi spend so much time and silver two to buy these things? Just like the thin monkey guessed before, it can't be made to make firecrackers?

"After a while, Miss An will know the use of these things......

The corners of She Yi's mouth curled, and he said calmly.

"Since Childe said so, let's wait a while......"

An Yixue smiled politely.

"Childe, what else do you have to order?"

"Hmm...... This is ......."

She Yi took out a few drawings from his coat pocket and handed them to An Yixue.

"Miss An, you two should find a few blacksmiths to build these things as soon as possible according to the annotation marks on the drawings......

An Yixue took the drawings, frowned, and looked at them seriously.

"Childe, don't worry, the slave family will prepare these things for you as soon as possible."

"Well, there are also these drawings, here are a few mechanism diagrams, you follow the signs above, and arrange the mechanisms near Zhuangzi and inside the villa."

She Yi took out a few more drawings and handed them to An Yixue.

After An Yixue took the drawing and looked at it, she put this drawing and the first drawing together.

"Childe, do you have any other explanations?"

An Yixue looked at She Yi.

"Not for the time being...... Let's go to the main hall...... Miss An didn't say that there are some high-quality teas, and my son just tasted it. ”

"Of course there is, how can the slave family fool the son...... Miss Ruoruo, what are you going to drink? ”

An Yixue looked down at Ruoruo.

"Well, well, I want to drink milk tea...... Does my sister have it? ”

Ruoruo deliberately stared at An Yixue's proud fullness with ill-intentioned eyes.

"Milk tea?"

An Yixue was puzzled, was it the first time she had heard this name? It seems that this tea is not sold in the market. Seeing Ruoruo's eyes sweeping over her chest, a few blushes suddenly appeared on her face.

"You girl...... If you don't study well, it's no wonder that you have been living with your uncle so early......"

Ruoruo: "Haha......"

She Yi: "Poof......"

"Sister An, you can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour...... Jealousy or envy...... Hee-hee......"

Ruoruo proudly grabbed She Yi's arm, in fact, She Yi had made the milk tea she said. She looked at An Yixue's breasts, which deliberately made her want to crook......

"Whew...... Ruoruo, this is what you provoked your sister, how can your sister correct the law on the spot...... Don't blame your sister? ”

An Yixue straightened her waist proudly, and her chest shook slightly proudly...... It's tempting......

"Ahem...... Sister Ann...... Uncle is not good at that mouthful...... Let's change the strategy......"

Ruoruo's bright big eyes blinked, and he also said proudly.

She Yi (face full of black lines): "Poof...... Poof......"

"Hehe, Ruoruo, you are still young and don't understand your uncle's heavy taste...... Unfortunately, we'll try ...... now."

An Yixue had just finished speaking......

She Yi sprinkled a mouthful of old blood in the sky and fell to the ground with a thud......

"Childe...... Don't get excited......"

"Uncle...... You have to be strong......"

……

A quarter of an hour later, in the main hall and the main hall, She Yi, Ruoruo, and An Yixue sat on chairs around the table...... Several maids stood behind She Yi.

There was a pot of tea on the table...... This pot of tea is the best tea of the royal agents of the palace - Plantagenet tongue.

As a special imperial tea for the royal family, Plantagenet Tongue cannot be drunk by ordinary people, even ordinary petty officials and officials, they can't taste it......

In ancient times, the literati drank tea as a symbol of status and taste, just as some people in later generations liked to pretend to be forced to drink coffee......

This gorse tongue was obtained by An Yixue from the previous owner of the villa, and An Yixue specially left it for She Yi.

There was a cup on the table in front of She Yi, and the tea in the cup was crystal clear, like a piece of turquoise amber, which was very beautiful. She Yi looked at the tea in the teacup, slowly picked it up, put it to her nose, sniffed it, and a faint fragrance wafted into her nose, refreshing people's hearts...... It is said that the wisdom of ancient times is not ordinary...... This kind of fine tea has never been enjoyed even by him, a business tycoon in later generations......

Take a small sip and slowly close your eyes to enjoy the beauty of this plantagenet.

"Uncle, how do you feel?"

Ruoruo's eyes blinked......

"Why did you close your eyes and ...... poisoned?"

"Heh......"

When She Yi heard Ruoruo's words, she almost laughed, opened her eyes, and said angrily.

"You girl......"

"Huh...... Just kidding, everyone cooperates and laughs......"

Ruoruo shrugged her shoulders.

An Yixue on the side was also amused by Ruoruo, and the two maids standing behind She Yi covered their mouths and laughed in a low voice.

"Uncle, don't you have a story of a goldfinch tongue, and you only told the first half of it last time...... This time, I'll talk about the second half as well...... How? ”

Ruoruo looked at She Yi with interest and said. She Yi told Ruoruo that story, but only the first part of the story......

"Childe wants to tell a story? Okay, the slave family can also listen to it......"

An Yixue's face also showed a happy expression, most of the people around She Yi liked to listen to She Yi's stories. She Yi is like a treasure trove of countless beautiful stories.

"Hmm...... Well......"

She Yi took a sip of tea again and began to speak slowly......

…… The girls finally got the tea seeds, but unfortunately, they planted them on the top of Python Mountain in the first year after returning to Duyun, and they were dried up by hail; In the second year, it was planted in the middle of Python Mountain, and was killed by frost and snow;

In the third year, the girls were planted at the foot of Python Mountain. Due to the failure of the first two times, this time they cultivated more carefully and managed carefully, and the tea seedlings grew better and better, and turned into a lush tea plantation, which people called this place tea farmers. In order not to forget the guidance of the green fairy, this tea was later named "Duyun Maojian Tea".

The king of Duyun has this tea garden, Guotai Minkang. But I don't know how many generations have passed, and legend has it that when Ming Hongwu transferred to the north to conquer the south, there was a team of officers and soldiers stationed in Duyun Xuejiabao.

Due to the lack of adaptation to the water and soil, many soldiers fell ill, vomited and diarrhea, and called their father and mother. After learning about this condition, an old man in the local Buyi took the initiative to bring a handful of salt, tea, rice, and beans, and cooked soup for the officers and soldiers to drink.

Later, after a general inquired about the wonderful use of tea, he quietly bought a bag of Duyun Maojian tea in the market and brought it back to the capital to make meritorious contributions. After tasting it, the emperor felt that it was very appetizing, and it was another good medicine, so he nodded again and again and said, "Great, great!" ”

Since then, every year to send a special person to Duyun to pay tribute tea, a uniform Maojian tea.

One year, a group of officers and soldiers in the capital came to collect tribute tea, but they couldn't receive a tael.

They were so angry that they personally ran to the tea farmers at the foot of the Python Mountain to take a look, only to see that a dozen or so tea-picking girls immediately turned into a flock of green fairies, flying to peck the eyes of this group of dogs, and the officers and soldiers had no place to stand in the tea farmers. They heard that there was still a tea garden in Duyun Cattle Farm, and they hurriedly ran to the cattle farm, but the tea garden in the cattle farm was drenched by dozens of cows.

The officers and soldiers could not get the tribute tea, and they were afraid that they would not be able to pay the difference when they returned to the capital. When he was in distress, one of the commanders of the Duyun Barbarian King said: "We have no choice, so let's do it, after you return to the capital, you will say that the Maojian tea in the Duyun area has all been pecked by poisonous green sharp-billed finches, and it is drenched with filth, and it can't be eaten at all, and the medicine will not work." ”

When the emperor heard this, he believed it and reduced the tribute tea from then on......

……

"It turns out that there is another name for the Plantagenet Tongue - Mao Jian...... It's the first time the slave family has heard it...... Childe is worthy of his knowledge......"

An Yixue suddenly realized.

Ruoruo also looked like he suddenly realized.

"Alright...... That's it for today, it's time for us to go back......"

She Yi stood up. (To be continued.) )
