Since Fang Xiaoyu rode very slowly, the Xia family sisters had no choice but to restrain their horses and walk side by side with Fang Xiaoyu, the three of them were talking and laughing, and with the two beauties accompanied, Fang Xiaoyu felt in a good mood. As the three of them were talking, Xia Tingyun suddenly pointed to the front and said, "Where do you see that mountain?" Xia Tingwei looked at it and said with a smile: "That's Luoyun Mountain, it's the largest mountain near the capital, and we're already thirty kilometers away from the capital here." Xia Tingyun proposed: "I have a proposal, let's compete to see who gets to the foot of the mountain first." ”

Before Fang Xiaoyu could object, Xia Tingyun rode out of the gang first, and Xia Tingwei also followed with a smile. Fang Xiaoyu shouted from behind: "This is not fair, you are bullying, if you have the ability to get off the horse, let's run." Xia Tingyun's silver bell-like laughter came, and she shouted: "Hurry up, the turtle is the last to run." Fang Xiaoyu said anxiously: "Little girl, this turtle can't talk nonsense, do you want me to bring a green hat in the future." ”

Fang Xiaoyu undoubtedly became the penultimate in this competition, looking at Fang Xiaoyu who arrived slowly, the Xia family sisters who had already arrived were already waiting a little anxiously. Xia Tingyun smiled: "Brother Yu, you will be a turtle in the future." Fang Xiaoyu glared at her and said, "You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." What turtle, be careful when talking nonsense, I don't want you in the future. Xia Tingyun glanced at him: "Love or not, I don't necessarily want to marry you." Fang Xiaoyu glared at her, and was about to sneer at each other, when she saw that the two of them began to fight again, Xia Tingwei hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Okay, let's rest for a while and go back, it's not too early." ”

Fang Xiaoyu nodded and stopped arguing with Xia Tingyun, he looked around while wiping his sweat, and suddenly a stone caught his attention. Fang Xiaoyu turned over and dismounted, quickly ran over, grabbed the stone, and looked at it carefully. Light gray, indeed limestone. He found a few shallow soil layers nearby to observe carefully, and found that the whole soil layer was covered with continuous limestone, it is estimated that more than half of the whole mountain is these stones, this discovery made Fang Xiaoyu very excited, with so much limestone can produce cement by himself, with cement can do a lot of things, first of all, the road near the villa should be repaired, so as not to be too bumpy when making a carriage.

Fang Xiaoyu was thinking about the benefits of having cement, and the Xia family sisters had already dismounted and walked over. Xia Tingyun patted Fang Xiaoyu and said, "Brother Yu, why are you smirking here after digging the soil for so long?" Fang Xiaoyu looked back at Xia Tingyun and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing, I'm just interested in this stone." Then he asked, "Whose property is this Luoyun Mountain?" Xia Tingwei smiled: "What? You're so interested in the mountain, it's not enough to have Lanting Mountain, do you still want to buy this mountain? Fang Xiaoyu said: "Is there anything wrong with the mountain?" Xia Tingwei said: "Of course it's not good, everyone else likes the plains, because the plains are easy to cultivate, how can you like the mountains." Fang Xiaoyu smiled silently, just now through Xiaofeng's scanning with a radius of sixty kilometers, Fang Xiaoyu found that there is not only a large amount of limestone in this mountain, but also a large iron mine, and it is also a manganese iron ore, with this iron mine, Fang Xiaoyu not only wants to build a cement factory, but even wants to build a steel mill.

Xia Tingwei saw Fang Xiaoyu smiling silently and continued: "This mountain has no owner, as long as you report to the Ministry of Industry, I believe that you can buy it for nothing." Fang Xiaoyu nodded and said, "This mountain may not be worth a penny in other people's hands, but it is worth ten thousand gold in my hands." Xia Tingwei tilted her head and looked at Fang Xiaoyu for a long time before sighing: "I really don't know what you can't do, sometimes I really can't see through you." Xia Tingyun smiled: "Brother Yu, you have completely convinced my arrogant sister." Fang Xiaoyu said modestly: "At least in horseback riding, I can't compare to your sister." ”

The sisters of the Xia family can't live in Lanting Villa permanently, after all, this is Fang Xiaoyu's place, although the three of them are still children, and it is easy for people to gossip after living for a long time. After sending away the Xia family sisters Fang Xiaoyu naturally wanted to go home, Sun Huaizong commanded everyone to collect vegetables in the villa. Sun Huaizong and others harvested spinach, which was the first vegetable harvested in Lanting Villa. There are many kinds of spinach, which can be divided into spring spinach sown in spring, summer spinach sown from May to July, autumn spinach sown from August to September, and overwintering spinach sown from October to November according to the sowing time. Fang Xiaoyu planted spring spinach this time, the harvest of spinach is very fast, and it can be picked in batches after forty days of sowing.

Back at home, Fang Xiaoyu directly found his eldest brother Fang Dingguo, and when he saw Fang Xiaoyu coming, Fang Dingguo was overjoyed and said, "Little brother, you finally have time to come and see your eldest brother." Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "I came to you for something, it's about my sister-in-law." Fang Dingguo said with a smile: "I heard Qi Xia say, she said that you want to prepare two special commodities for her, what are they?" Fang Xiaoyu took out the wooden box containing soap from his arms and handed it to Fang Dingguo: "This is the first commodity, called soap, which is used to wash your face and bathe." Waiting for Fang Xiaoyu to explain the use of soap, Fang Dingguo's eyes widened and said, "This is really a money-making thing, it must be easy to sell." After speaking, he stared at Fang Xiaoyu and said, "Then where is the other one?" Fang Xiaoyu took out a piece of paper from his arms and said, "I can't do this, I can only give you a picture, don't you have a ready-to-wear shop?" I'll make it clear to you that you can take it back and do it yourself. ”

"Making clothes?" Fang Dingguo took the drawings suspiciously, looked at them repeatedly, and said, "Are such small clothes for babies?" Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "This is for women, I call it a bra." Fang Xiaoyu explained to Fang Dingguo in a whisper the use and function of the bra. Fang Dingguo smiled evilly: "You kid has a lot of ghost ideas, no wonder you and Qi Xia said that they can only let me tell her what it is." Fang Xiaoyu also smiled: "Big brother, I created such a good opportunity for you to get close to your sister-in-law, what reward do you have." Fang Dingguo said: "Little brother, you are the richest among the brothers and sisters, and you still want to loot the eldest brother, it's too miserable." ”

Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "How is it possible, just kidding, I still have a few million in my hand now, barely enough to spend." Fang Dingguo's eyes widened and said, "Millions? Still barely enough to spend? Thanks to what you said, do you know that Brother Lu Dao doesn't have much income at all now in charge of the farm, and he hasn't bought you a gift for Sister Qixia in the past two months. Fang Xiaoyu pointed to the drawings of the soap and bra and said, "Isn't this a chance to give you a chance to perform, don't go quickly." "Yes, I'll go now." Fang Dingguo immediately picked up his things and ran out. Fang Xiaoyu shook his head: "The eldest brother was so anxious when he heard about his sister-in-law, he will definitely be a strict wife in the future." ”

Walking out of the courtyard of the eldest brother Fang Dingguo, Fang Xiaoyu wanted to go to see his mother, but a voice behind him said, "Xiaoyu, you are back." Fang Xiaoyu looked back, it turned out to be his grandfather Fang Wei, and he smiled: "Grandpa, you are also at home." Fang Wei nodded: "It just so happens that I have something to look for you, you come to the study with me." ”

Fang Xiaoyu followed his grandfather to the study, Fang Wei pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down, Xiaoyu." Fang Xiaoyu nodded and sat down. Fang Wei saw him sit down and sighed, "Recently, you and those two little girls of the Xia family have been very close?" Fang Xiaoyu nodded in affirmation. Fang Wei said again: "They still often live in your villa? Fang Xiaoyu explained: "It's only twice. ”

Fang Wei sighed and said, "Do you know the Dao?" Marshal Xia has already privately spread the news that he is going to marry both of them to you. Fang Xiaoyu was surprised: "What? Two? How is this possible. Fang Wei said: "Do you know the way? Because of this news and the close relationship between those two little girls and you, the Cheng family can't sit still, and they have made a lot of small moves in the court recently. It's a lot of pressure on us. Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Grandpa means that you want me to do something?" ”

Fang Wei said: "What you have to do is to strengthen the strength of the mountain villa, now the root cause of our Fang family's prosperity is the various commodities you have made, once the Lanting Mountain Villa is attacked, the Fang family's losses will be great." Listening to Fang Wei's words, Fang Xiaoyu was shocked into a cold sweat, last time he wanted to quickly integrate his armed strength, but after a few days he didn't move, he relaxed. Even the 1,000 slaves I bought were not arranged, but I just followed everyone to do farm work every day, it seems that I have been too smooth and a little careless recently, and I have to strengthen the security work when I go back.

After listening to his grandfather's warning, Fang Xiaoyu had no intention of staying at home for a long time, and hurried back to Lanting Villa. Back at the villa, the first thing Fang Xiaoyu did was to summon Huadong Xing and the other three, plus Sun Huaizong and Lin Feng to discuss. Fang Xiaoyu talked about the current situation, and also said that he wanted to rely on those slaves to build a force that was completely loyal to him.
