Chapter 326: The Imperial Gift of Feng Shui
The emperor instructed the chief eunuch to send the village chief and Li Lao Er and them out, and finally sighed with the old ministers, "If the people of Tianwu are like this, why worry that the rivers and mountains cannot be recovered, and why worry that Tianwu will not prosper!" ”
"The emperor is relieved, this day must not be far away." The old ministers all stood up and saluted.
Don't talk about the palace, just talk about the broken gold beach, sure enough, as the village chief worried, the people who bought melons have blocked the intersection of the river beach.
The people who had booked before, for fear of being preempted, were still coming one after another.
People who don't have reservations are also jumping and shouting, wanting to buy a few at a high price.
At this time, the village chief, Li Lao Er and others rushed back in time.
I heard that the emperor personally rewarded the archway of the feng shui treasure land, and praised the sweetest melons in the broken golden beach, and everyone was even more crazy.
"I'll give me ten taels of silver, and sell me ten jasper melons."
"I'll give me a hundred taels of silver, just give me five jasper melons."
"Jin Guo, I want Jin Guo, one or two pieces of silver."
The people in the village were thrilled and excited, but they still stopped the buyers and asked them to listen to the village's decision.
Li Lao Er took out the booklet and asked people to move two tables to separate the guests with reservations and those without reservations.
Because the garden has just opened, the jasper melon and golden fruit are not too ripe, so the guests who book can only pay half per person.
Fortunately, in order to avoid reselling, it was stipulated that a scheduled customer could only buy ten jasper melons and fifty golden fruits, which solved today's difficulties.
It is only after the scheduled guests have to be sent away that they begin to entertain individual guests.
Li Lao Er did not raise the price because he was a casual customer, but he only sold two jasper melons and ten golden fruits per person.
In this way, it is basically guaranteed that the guests who come from a long distance will not return empty-handed.
But in the melon field, jasper melons and golden fruits that are more than eight medium-ripe have also been picked.
Jiayin was afraid that the villagers would not have the experience to pick the raw melons, which was a pity, so she took a hat and ran in the field for most of the day.
In the end, the guests were finally sent away, and the villagers were tired and hoarse.
Jiayin was even more sad to find that although she avoided tanning her yin and yang face this time, her arms and calves became black lotus roots......
That night, the old lady bathed her granddaughter, and she almost couldn't straighten up with a smile.
"I regret making you wear shorts and shorts!"
Jia Yin pouted, very frustrated, but as soon as he came out of the ear room, he immediately became happy again.
Because the three brothers are also very sunburned, their arms and legs are black and white, and they even have a black face.
The old lady couldn't help but laugh when she saw her granddaughter rolling around on the mat.
Xu Shidu coveted the jasper melons in the golden beach and sold well, and the big locust tree and the big and small wangzhuang also began to sell melons.
Some of the guests who ran into the wall at the broken gold beach thought that several villages were so close and the melons they grew should be similar, so they bought some and went back, but they were extremely disappointed.
It's not that the melons grown in these three villages are unpalatable, the same green skin and red flesh are also juicy when cut.
But when you eat it, the melons in the three villages are not as sweet as those in Broken Jintan, and there is a lot less "melon flavor".
After hearing about it, the three villages didn't want to believe it, so they deliberately hugged their own melons and ran to Broken Gold Beach to compare.
In the end, Sanri Masashi was also convinced.
"It's so close, it's the same melon seedling, how can the melon not be sweet."
The village chief laughed and was very proud, "We are a treasure of feng shui here, and the emperor has rewarded the archway, of course, everything is delicious." ”
Three miles were impossible, so I went back to discuss and lowered the price, only selling one-third of the original.
In this way, although the sales are not hot, they are also smooth.
The rest of the people who planted jasper melons everywhere, of course, were indispensable to compare, and finally the price was also reduced.
For a time, both inside and outside Xindu knew that Broken Gold Beach was a treasure land of feng shui, and the melons and fruits grown were the most delicious in the world.
In the midst of the noise, another half a month passed, and most of the melon orchards in Broken Gold Beach were empty.
Only the remaining acre of land, the village chief led people to guard day and night, looking forward to the return of Hou Ye and them.
And the Li family is also busy with Zhang Luo Jiayin's birthday banquet, the big fat pig in the pigsty must be killed, there is no shortage of vegetables and vegetables at this season, and it is almost enough to buy two more sheep.
The women in the village were idle, so they ran forward to help the Li family do chores, and built awnings and temporary stoves in front of the door and in the courtyard.
Even the Ye family and the Cui family next door were also cleaned by them.
The day before her birthday, Mrs. Cui came by carriage early, and brought Liu Zhiheng's wife and two sons with her, planning to play in the valley and orchard for a day, and directly attend the birthday banquet tomorrow.
Because there were many people in the family, the old lady said a few words to Mrs. Liu in the courtyard of Cui's house, and asked people to bring two jasper melons over, so she went to get busy.
Leave Mrs. Cui to help take care of Jiayin, the little birthday star, and also entertain Mrs. Liu's mother and son.
The two boys of the Liu family are both eleven or twelve years old, and they were a little restrained at the beginning, but they were pulled by Jia An Jiaxi, and they went to run crazy in the orchard together, fished in the river, and bathed in the hot spring.
Mrs. Cui took Mrs. Liu and Jiayin to the valley to enjoy the flowers and soak in the hot springs, and when they went home, Li Laosan's family, Jiaren and Brother Li also returned.
Jiayin was overjoyed, and hugged the third uncle and the third uncle, and asked the brothers to carry them on their backs, and they were happy like puppies, wagging their tails and running around.
In the past few days, the college has been resting, and Jiaren and Brother Li'er have come back from leave.
Li Lao Er was worried, so he asked, "Asking for leave will delay your homework, will your husband be annoyed?" ”
Jiaren replied with a smile: "Dad, don't worry, Mr. gave him a three-day vacation very happily, and asked me to bring him a few golden fruits when I go back." ”
Everyone laughed when they heard this, "Fortunately, there is an acre of land left at home, ready for Hou Ye and your fourth uncle to come back to eat, otherwise you will go back empty-handed, be careful that Mr. will give you small shoes!" ”
"That's not it, Mr. is very reasonable, but he is a little greedy, and my classmates and friends, when they hear me come back, they also make a fuss about eating jasper melon. There are also a few children in Brother Li'er's class who play well, and Mr. treats him a lot of care, and this time when I go back, I am afraid that the family will have to bring us a few more jasper melons to get enough points. ”
Jia Ren smiled as he spoke, his face brightened, showing that he was very comfortable studying in the academy, like a fish in water.
Brother Li took Brother Cat'er's hand and nodded with a smile.
When the family saw this, they were all relieved, how could they feel sorry for those melons and fruits.
Mrs. Li said: "Wait for me to tell the village chief, you can take as much jasper melon as you want, you can do well in the academy!" In another month, the fruit of the mountains will be sweet, and I will send you more when the time comes. ”
Seeing that the sky was darkening, everyone was about to have dinner.
At this time, a hundred and ten fast horses suddenly ran on the main road on the side of the riverbank.
