The steward was worried, but he could only hide behind the trunk of the tree, not moving.

At the moment, he is not going to do anything, and he will listen to the words of the prince, so that he will not cause trouble for the prince.

And this side.

Su Mujiu followed those people and walked towards the mountain.

Finally, they stopped in front of a clearing.

Su Mujiu hid on a branch, her back resting on the trunk, and a pair of glazed eyes fell on the clearing.

The trees on top of this clearing have long been cut down, and the ground has been cleared and many vegetables and crops have been planted.

And these people who came did not pick weeds, nor hunted hares.

Instead, he took out his farming tools from the bushes on the side and began to work.

Su Mujiu's eyes were full of astonishment.

Dare she follow these people all the way, and what she received was the news that they planted food in the middle of the night?

What kind of thing is this?

For the first time, Su Mujiu felt that her guess was wrong, and she even felt that she had wasted a night in vain.

Su Mujiu sighed and went home.

"Jiulangzhong, what have you gained?" The manager made tea and handed it to Su Mujiu.

The sky outside the window was gradually whitening, and it was almost dawn.

The manager didn't understand why the prince had not said a word since he came back.

Su Mujiu picked up the cup and blew, and the mist drifted in the air.

She lowered her eyes and took a gentle sip of tea.

"It's not a harvest, it's a big question."

The steward sat down next to the stool next to Su Mujiu, his eyes full of curiosity.

"What's the doubt?" The steward lowered his eyes and asked, he didn't know why, why the prince said that.

"I followed those people to the mountains secretly, but I didn't expect them to be so secretive for farming." Su Mujiu's lips opened slightly, and there were wisps of doubt in those eyes.

"Oh, it's farming." The manager breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that his faint uneasiness yesterday was really a big fuss.

"But you don't think you can farm anywhere, so why do you have to be on that mountain?" Su Mujiu felt that there was something strange in this matter.

"Maybe it's because the soil on this mountain is fertile? So the villagers are thinking about opening up farmland in the mountains? The steward made assumptions.

Su Mujiu drank the tea, pointed to the teacup, and motioned for the manager to fill it with tea.

The steward took the teapot and filled it for Su Mujiu.

Su Mujiu took another sip of tea, and then continued: "I have seen all the towns in this town, and there are also good fields and crops. It doesn't make sense to cut a piece of land in the mountains and use it for crops. ”

"What are you going to do then?" Although the manager didn't understand why Su Mujiu was so worried, he still asked tentatively.

Su Mujiu put down the teacup, there was a smile in her eyes, she grinned her lips, revealing her teeth, "Sleep." ”

After speaking, Su Mujiu turned around and entered the side room and closed the door.

The steward, on the other hand, sighed, leaned back on the table, and rested.

Fortunately, on weekdays, the time when the medicinal herbs of the prince is open is uncertain, so it will not make people suspicious because the store is not opened at this time.

"Knock knock."

"Jiulangzhong, are you there?"

The steward didn't know how long he had been asleep, but he vaguely heard a knock at the door.

He was about to get up to open the door, but he felt a pair of hands tap his shoulder, leaving a wisp of fragrance.

Then, he heard the door squeak and it was opened.

He felt tired like never before, couldn't hold it anymore, and fell asleep again.

Su Mujiu propped up one hand on the door panel, and the other hand was on his waist, looking at the person outside the door.

This is a man dressed in coarse linen, with dark skin and thick calluses on his hands, who looks like a man who has been working in the fields all year round.

Su Mujiu raised her eyebrows, the scar on her face changed with her movements, and she said, "Are you?" ”

"Oh, I'm the mayor's housekeeper, Ah Niu, and I invite you to go to the mayor's courtyard today to have a drink." Ah Niu smiled very simply, and the wrinkles portrayed his hardships one by one.

"Eat and drink? Is there any great event? Su Mujiu felt a little surprised, on weekdays, she was in this one-acre three-point medicinal herb shop, and the door did not go out of the door.

Except for the villagers who came to pick up the medicine, there was no one else to meet, let alone invite.

Why did the mayor suddenly want to invite her to dinner?

"Our mayor said, our town has a Jiulangzhong, which is the blessing of our town, so today's banquet was held, everyone is sitting at the mayor's house to prepare for the banquet, just waiting for you Jiulangzhong!" Na Niu said happily, his enthusiasm is like a fire, conveying the kindness in his heart.

Su Mujiu's eyes flashed, and he already had a few points in his heart.

I think that her existence has finally been recognized by the villagers in the town, so there will be such a show.

It seems that her plan to penetrate the enemy has been successful.

The invitation came just right, and she might be able to solve the mystery in her heart.

Su Mujiu smiled like a peach, "Wait, I'll explain a word or two to my buddy, and I'll go with you." ”

"Okay, you're busy first." Ah Niu didn't urge, obediently stood on the grass pile on the side, and waited patiently.

Su Mujiu turned around and said to the misty manager: "I'll go out, you take care of the medicinal herb shop." ”

"Hmm......" the steward replied in a daze.

Su Mujiu knew that the body of the manager was not as good as herself, and after such a toss last night, she would be so tired.

Therefore, it is also an excellent choice to leave him to see the herb shop.

Su Mujiu closed the door, and then said to Ah Niu, who had been waiting for a while, "Let's go, let's go to the banquet." ”

"Uh-huh!" The big cow stepped on straw sandals, leading the way in front, and Su Mujiu followed leisurely, looking at it here, and looking at it there.

Suddenly, she seemed to ask casually, "Da Niu, Wushan fire, is there enough food for our town?" ”

Da Niu scratched his head, looked back at Su Mujiu, and said seriously: "It should be enough, the people who were arranged to live in our town before came, and the mayor also opened the granary." We have good soil here, so the harvest is good. ”

"Is the granary a place where everyone stores grain together?" Su Mujiu asked again.

"Well, all the people in our town grow food, manage and distribute food in a unified manner, so our town will be a rich town within a radius of 100 miles."

When Ah Niu introduced, his eyes were full of light, and his tone was full of endless pride.

Su Mujiu put her fingers on her chin and nodded thoughtfully.

Ah Niu's words are enough to illustrate a problem.

There is a large piece of land in this town that is used to grow food, and Ah Niu said that everyone will plant it uniformly, but I am afraid that the planting place is planned in advance, and it is naturally impossible to go to the hidden mountain to open up a farmland.

Obviously, the food there is not under the control of the town.
