Chapter 156: Pollen Allergies
Early the morning after tomorrow, after explaining some things to pay attention to, Tang Mian called Yin Zhe and them to set off.
Qinghe County is about fifty miles away from the imperial city.
It takes half a day to get to the county seat by horse-drawn carriage.
Along the way, as long as there is a field, everyone can see the yellow canola flowers blooming on both sides of the ground, a gust of wind blows, Yin Zhe has been sneezing after inhaling pollen, until he arrived at the inn, he still feels that his nose is very blocked, and even his head is extremely swollen and painful, very uncomfortable.
Tang Mian asked him to see a doctor, only saying that he was allergic to pollen, and it was best to wear a veil when going in and out in the past few days, try not to go to the place where the rape flowers are in full bloom, and rest for a few days to heal.
"Yin Zhe, Ming'er, you still don't want to go to the village with us." A long time ago, an uncle Tang Mian knew was also allergic to pollen, and every spring and summer, he almost always wore a veil on the street, even so it was inevitable that he still inhaled some Tang wool pollen, and then began to feel uncomfortable.
"Don't you want to leave me alone, I have a mission...... "If he hadn't come to Qinghe County this time, he wouldn't have known that he would have pollen allergies."
He sneezed a dozen times in a row.
In the end, Tang Mian couldn't stand it, "Yin Zhe, isn't there still Lin Zi and Nian Su, don't worry!" I'm fine. ”
Tang Mian said with a smile, seeing that he wanted to talk and started sneezing again, he didn't stay in the house anymore and called Lin Zi and them.
The next morning, as soon as she got into the carriage, she saw a man in black with a black face, and she was so frightened that she retreated backwards and almost fell off the carriage.
"Miss Tang is me!" Yin Zhe was a little embarrassed, he didn't mean to scare Tang Mian, but if he didn't pretend to be like this, his nose would be very uncomfortable, and he couldn't do anything.
After all, Tang Mian increased his salary this time, and if he got 500,000 taels of silver, the children would definitely be very happy.
He didn't want to take Tang Mian's money for nothing for personal reasons.
In the end, Tang Mian talked for a long time, but he just refused to leave, which made her very helpless.
"Miss Tang, it seems to be a ready-to-wear store in front, I'll go down and buy a hat for Hall Master Yin." Nian Su reminded Yin Zhe earlier that he dressed up like this in broad daylight, even if it was fine, it would cause unnecessary trouble, but he just didn't believe it.
After a while, Yin Zhe put on his hat, and the long white veil covered his black face, and finally it didn't look so abrupt.
After a while, Tang Mian came to the first village.
I met the Lizheng of their village.
He heard that Tang Mian and his party had come from the imperial city not far away, and they wanted to buy honey from their village.
But all the honey in their village had been ordered in the autumn of the previous year.
"Lizheng, can't you just sell some to us?" Tang Mian pretended to be very anxious and asked.
Some business is very happy to come to the door, but they have signed the relevant deeds before, and now they have to pay a lot of money for breaking the contract.
Besides, even if the girl in front of them can help them pay liquidated damages, they can't do treacherous things.
Doing business is about credibility, and once they break the contract first, the honey sales that have been opened up will stop there, which is really not a wise move.
"I'm sorry Miss Tang, all the honey in our village has been ordered!"
"Boss Tang, we have signed a supply contract with several masters in the county for more than three years, and we can't sell it to you."
"Thank you for coming to our village......
……
Before evening, Tang Mian and the others returned to the inn in the county seat after visiting the last village.
All of them looked dejected.
"Miss Tang, now all the honey has a buyer! What are we going to do? Go back to the Imperial City or go to the next county? Nian Su was a little depressed, thinking that Tang Mian would definitely be able to buy honey if he had money, but he didn't expect that he couldn't buy a pound of honey if he had money.
Tang Mian had a bitter face, and after a moment of silence, he motioned for everyone to go back to the house to rest first, and talk about it tomorrow.
Early morning.
Tang Mian, who got up early, was about to go out for a walk, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw the forest.
"Lin Zi, didn't I tell you to go back to the house to rest, you shouldn't have been guarding outside my door all night, right?" Tang Mian asked.
Lin Zi shook his head, the first half of the night was Nian Sushou, he just stood from the third watch to the present.
Originally, Tang Mian wanted to toss for a few days, but he thought about torturing Lin Zi and them too much.
simply wrote to Tian Bo and asked him to ask someone to go to various places in Tianqi to sign a deed to buy rapeseed.
To ensure that the wind is walking, it is best to make sure that everyone is doing it at the same time.
In the following days, she took a few people to the nearby county seat, symbolically inquired about the honey situation in several villages, and then took Lin Zi and them back to the inn.
I happened to see someone selling pheasants, so I borrowed the kitchen from the innkeeper and made a delicious soy sauce roast chicken for everyone.
"Tang Mian! You're amazing! This soy sauce roast chicken is delicious—" Yin Zhe was excited, he was glad that he hadn't killed Tang Mian in the first place, otherwise he would have missed out on such delicious food.
"Yin Zhe, you're too exaggerated! My level of cooking hasn't changed for so many years, if you like to eat soy sauce chicken, I'll continue to cook it for you when I go back. Tang Mian took over the conversation very naturally, very cordial.
Seeing Hall Master Yin, who had become a fool laughing, Nian Su secretly sighed at the strength of Tang Mian's personal charm.
Hall Master Yin has an eccentric temper, a bold personality, and is informal, and he rarely praises a person, especially this person is a friend of their hall master.
But that's fine, he can rest easy for a while.
A few days later, Tang Mian received news that people had been sent from all over the country to buy rapeseed.
Tang Mian then took them to various villages to sign a contract for the purchase of rapeseed after the autumn.
Seeing that the sun was approaching, Tang Mian declined Lizheng's request to stay a few of them for dinner, and took everyone into the carriage.
"Miss Tang, what are you doing with so many rapeseeds? There are too many words to farm! This matter has been held in Nian Su's heart for several days, and he knows that Tang Mian will not be angry with him for talking too much, so he opened his mouth to ask.
"Hmm...... I'm going to squeeze oil! Tang Mian threw out an unexpected thing.
Except for Lin Zi, who was driving the carriage, he didn't hear it, Nian Su and Yin Zhe in the carriage all opened their eyes wide, and their faces were all strange.
"I'm not kidding, I really want to use rapeseed to extract oil...... Tang Mian simply explained to the two of them the specific steps of oil extraction, as well as the principle of oil extraction, and directly stunned the two of them.
There was no basis for her words, Tang Mian discussed with them, and when the late autumn came, all the camellia seeds were purchased, and she invited them to come and squeeze the oil herself.
After listening to this, both of them became interested.
They have eaten the fat melted from so many animals.
I didn't expect plants to produce oil.
Outside the carriage, Lin Zi held the reins tightly and looked around vigilantly.
He tightened the reins of the carriage.
Yin Zhe, who was talking in the house, sensed that something was wrong and lifted the curtain of the carriage. Not yet asked.
A flaming arrow shot at them.
"Be careful!" Thanks to Nian Su's quick reaction, he grabbed Tang Mian.
Only then did he dodge the arrows.
"Nian Su protects Tang Mian and leaves according to the first set of cases!" After dropping these words, Yin Zhe rushed out to help Lin Zi.
