The green of the mountains, the rolling mountains in the distance, and the cascading white mist in the eyes make people feel like a fairy spirit, and the scenery is breathtaking.

Take a deep breath and you can smell the refreshing aroma of tea, a fresh and refreshing taste.

"It's such a beautiful view, I'm going to paint tomorrow morning."

Zilan cheered happily.

"Okay, I'll paint with you tomorrow morning."

Such a beautiful scenery really needs to be recorded.

When they arrived at the tea garden, a steward personally received them, but Cui Hao and Zilan both wanted to experience the feeling of picking tea and picking tea with the tea pickers.

However, the two were busy for a long time and picked a little tea, which made the couple laugh.

The farmer's dishes eaten at noon, as well as the bacon smoked by the farmer himself, are very delicious, and there is a pot of chicken soup stewed with tea leaves, which has a fragrance of tea leaves, and also removes the greasy.

I can live today, Cui Hao chatted happily with the farmers, and drank the tea they copied by themselves, which was also very tasteful.

In the afternoon, Zilan personally copied the tea, which was appreciated by the tea farmers, saying that the craftsmanship was very good.

Early the next morning, the couple went to the top of the mountain to paint, to paint the beautiful scenery of the clouds rising in the early morning.

The husband and wife each have a drawing board, silently painting, occasionally looking at each other and showing a tacit smile, tacit understanding and warmth flow between the two.

There may be no fancy sweet words between them, but they are each other's best companions, achieving each other, giving the firmest support and protection, and being the sweetest happiness, like an old wine, the older it gets, the more fragrant it is.

Painted at noon, the steward gave them some special products, some of which were bacon to make Zilan very happy, she liked to eat this bacon very much, the bacon made by the pigs raised by the farmer himself, and the taste was very good.

There are also some tea leaves copied by the tea farmers themselves, maybe not as well as sold, but they have a heart.

Tea farmers live a prosperous and healthy life, tea farmers mainly rely on the income of tea to live, so it is not as hard as ordinary farming farmers, all year round, tea farmers can still have a slight surplus, life is much better than farmers, Jiangnan is still richer.

Cui Hao also made a careful understanding of the local area and listened to the voices of farmers, which allowed him to distinguish whether his colleagues were telling lies and deceiving him.

In the afternoon, they were going back to the city, and Zilan was satisfied after playing for a few days.

Cui Hao went to be busy again the next day, the salt tax still had to continue to be collected, and the matter of raiding the house had to be busy, so he had to keep an eye on it.

Zilan was busy with some things of Jinyiwei, so she made it more perfect, and spread the secret spy news network more carefully, so that it would be convenient for the emperor to inquire about Jiangnan in the future.

After all, the salt tax is the bulk of the national treasury, and it is no wonder that the emperor attaches so much importance to it, and a little less salt tax can affect many things.

Of course, Cui Hao, the imperial historian, has to do some other things, and he is also busy all day long.

After the investigation, the officials in Jiangnan were much more honest, and Zilan immediately received fewer posts, which made her relieved that she didn't have to face so much entertainment.

Xuan'er has already begun to learn and take over the study of secret agents, and has begun to be more active in searching for suitable orphans.

Mama Li said that she actually has a lot of potential, she is very smart and willing to learn to endure hardships, and the most important thing is that she has experienced a lot of hardships when she was a child, but she can better grasp the thoughts of these orphans.

At present, Xuan'er's vision of selecting people is still very good.

Zilan was also relieved after hearing this, the matter of Jinyiwei has been gradually improved, and the remaining things to be done are waiting for the test of time, so as to find more problems and improve them.

I'm going to pick up my eldest brother and sister-in-law at the dock today, they are about to arrive, Zilan got up early in the morning and was very happy.

When I arrived at the pier and waited for a while, I saw that the boat was docked on the shore, and people were disembarking one after another, and there were also family members carrying cages and other things.

Song Ziyan and Ling Yun walked last, Zilan waved her arms happily to greet them when she saw them, and Ling Yun also responded to her happily.

"Brother, sister-in-law, are you still going well on the road?"

"It's going well, are you okay, I heard your brother say that you were assassinated again, and I was shocked to hear it."

Ling Yun took her hand and looked at her up and down, very worried about her.

"I'm fine, it's Frangipani that they were injured a little bit, I didn't escape the catastrophe, those bad guys were cleaned up by me, it's okay."

"Lan'er, take my brother and sister-in-law back to the house to rest first, they are tired from sitting on the boat for so long."

Cui Hao reminded her with a smile.

"Yes, yes, brother and sister-in-law, I have arranged a yard for you, let's go back to the house."

Zilan pulled Ling Yun to take the carriage and chatted with her happily.

When they arrived at the house, they first let the husband and wife wash up and change their clothes before they came over to sit down and talk.

The sky was still bright, and the two of them had a lot of rest on the boat, and it was true that they couldn't sleep at this time, so they came over to talk to the family.

"How are you doing in Jiangnan, is it going well? If you need any help, just say, now that I'm here to do the county ordinance, we can just do things together, so it's more convenient. ”

"It didn't go well at the beginning, although the wind was very smooth when he left, but in fact, these officials were very cunning, one thing in front of them and one thing behind their backs, just trying to deceive their superiors and subordinates.

There are huge monetary interests here, and it's hard not to be tempted, and it's a lot harder to get things done when everyone is tied up against you. ”

Cui Hao stopped and took a sip of tea before continuing.

"Fortunately, Lan'er's assassination gave me a good excuse and a breakthrough. After a group of officials were cleared, things went much better. ”

Cui Hao smiled and told Song Ziyan what was going on here.

Song Ziyan nodded, "I also knew a lot before I came, and I knew that it wouldn't be too easy, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult now, no wonder the emperor attaches great importance to this place." ”

"Yes, these people can do anything for money, and they are not afraid of death."

The two of them chatted enthusiastically, discussing official affairs, and their sons Lan and Ling Yun had a pleasant chat after not seeing each other for a long time.

"Sister-in-law, they have recently raided the house of the salt merchant and the eunuch, and there are many properties that need to be sold, so I bought some tea plantations and mountain woodlands, as well as farms and mansions, if you need them, you can choose them, and you can leave them to the children in the future."

"Then I won't be polite to you, I must have bought some property to prepare when I came here, but you thought about it for me."

"Be polite to me, it's all family."

For dinner that day, Zilan prepared a wealth of Jiangnan specialties for her brother and sister-in-law to wash the dust, and the family had a meal affectionately.

The husband and wife are temporarily placed here in Zilan, and after the handover is completed, they will go to live in the official residence, and if the official residence is really poor, they will consider buying a mansion to live in.

However, Ziyan means that he wants to go out to live, because the county order may not be able to leave for five or six years.

However, it is also cheap to buy a house, Zilan bought three or four large, medium and small high-end houses for backup, depending on which one they want, just pick.
