小脸白皙，明眸清澈。

In a trance, Wei Mingting couldn't help but think about his daughter's playful, cute and lively appearance when she was young.

In front of him, a little girl with a sweet smile seemed to appear and ran towards her with a smile, shouting "Daddy" incessantly.

Wanwan was also white and cute when she was a child, but every time she saw him, she was a little timid, and she was cautious, and even the voice of calling her father was small.

If it was Ruo'er, he would not be afraid of him, and he would be coquettish with him in a grand manner.

It's a pity that fate made people, and he missed these after all.

"Father?" Wei Ruo found that Wei Mingting was distracted when he looked at him.

Wei Mingting came back to his senses and realized his gaffe.

"Ruo'er, I don't know how to thank you as a father." Wei Mingting's heart was warm

"Father doesn't have to thank me for this matter, Yingying and I sent these medicinal materials not only for my father, but also for the soldiers of the whole army and for the good people." Wei Ruo replied.

It really doesn't matter if it's Wei Mingting or someone else, as long as it's not a traitorous villain, Wei Ruo and Xie Ying will give away this medicinal herb today.

"In any case, the anti-Japanese army owes you and Miss Xie a favor, the wounded soldiers owe you a favor, and the father also owes you a favor." Wei Mingting's tone was solemn.

"Father, let's wait until the war is over, I know you still have to be busy, so I won't bother you for now. I'll send it to you when Yingying and I sort out the rest of the herbs. Wei Ruo said.

"Okay, be careful on the way back."

Wei Mingting admonished, and then reluctantly watched Wei Ruo walk out of his tent.

###

After Wei Ruo gave the medicinal materials to the anti-Japanese army, he didn't continue to take care of the affairs of Xingshan County, and set off to go to Fucheng with Mrs. Yuan.

After arriving in Fucheng, Wei Ruo lived in Tianqin Garden under the arrangement of Mrs. Yuan.

After arriving here, Wei Ruo was unrestrained, and he didn't need to come as carefully as he did when he was in the school lieutenant's mansion.

Early the next morning after staying there, Wei Ruo took Xiumei to Zhuangzi.

Wei Ruo met Xu Zhushan and the steward of Zhuangzi.

The person in charge is a man in his forties, surnamed Yu, with a somewhat Luo Guo figure and a thin face, but he looks quite honest.

Uncle Xu has been here for a few days, and the person in charge of affairs did not rely on Uncle Xu to honestly hide anything from him, and respectfully accompanied him to do things, which can also show a little from this person's heart.

During this time, Xu Zhushan had already figured out the situation in Zhuangzi and smoothed it out.

Wei Ruo called the two to him and asked about the other lands in their vicinity.

Then Wei Ruo instructed: "In this way, you help me to understand, there are those nearby who want to sell land and pawn land, and we will take them." ”

"Miss, are you going to reclaim a large area of land?" Steward Yu was a little surprised.

"Well, repossession." Wei Ruo's attitude was firm.

"But Miss, the weather has been bad lately, and the grain harvest has been in arrears everywhere, and now I am afraid that the harvest in this land will be ...... Square peg. Steward Yu reminded.

"It's okay, as long as the price is right, we'll just go and collect it." Wei Ruo naturally knew this, but she had already thought about doing it.

Now that grain production is decreasing, it is a time when land prices are low, and Wei Ruo plans to take advantage of this opportunity to buy more land and expand the industry.

And Wei Ruo just had the one hundred taels of gold in his hand, and he had the capital to buy land.

"That'...... What about manpower? Miss, if you buy the land, you will inevitably need more manpower. Steward Yu asked again.

Now these people in the Zhuangzi are only enough to take care of the fields in their Zhuangzi, and if there is more land, there will be not enough manpower.

"Hire poor peasants, displaced people who have lost their land." Wei Ruodao.

"Employing poor peasants?" The steward was a little surprised.

Even if the poor peasants are counted, the displaced people are a little surprised.

Steward Yu thought about it, and still said to Wei Ruo: "Miss, the homeless people have no fixed place, it is difficult to figure out the details, it is not easy to manage, and it is easy to make trouble......

"I know it's going to take a little more effort and the risks are bigger than just hiring local people who know the basics, but I'm willing to try."

Of course, Wei Ruo considered inviting it, and she must have thought about it if she was willing to do so, even if it would be relatively difficult to manage and prone to some mistakes, she didn't want to kill all the homeless people with one shot because she was afraid of such trouble.

Because these people are the most vulnerable and most in need of breadwinners.

"Okay, I'll go to Zhang Luo to arrange it." The remaining steward immediately set about it.

Wei Ruo and Xiumei followed Xu Zhushan to inspect the situation in the Zhuangzi again, the Zhuangzi given by Mrs. Yuan, the land is indeed better than the ordinary, the soil is fertile, and now that the renovation of the soil has ended, the new wheat seeds brought by Wei Ruo will be planted immediately.

As for sowing wheat at this time, the long-term workers who ploughed on the Zhuangzi had many opinions, and they felt that most of the wheat planted at this time would be difficult to grow well.

Although they didn't believe it in their hearts, the stewards did their job anyway.

Wei Ruo didn't have any opinion on this, after all, it was indeed past the ordinary time for wheat sowing, and it was natural for them to be worried, as long as they could do their jobs well.

Wei Ruo worked on Zhuangzi for two days, arranged all the things that should be arranged, and then took Wei Ruo to wander around the streets of Fucheng.

It looks like you're wandering around, but you're actually choosing the right store.

originally opened a shop in Fucheng, a foreigner with no background like her may not be able to do it even if she has money, but she has Mrs. Yuan as a backer, so she is free from this heavy trouble.

Although the sky is high and the emperor is far away here, the people in the school captain's mansion will not know, but for the sake of caution, Wei Ruo put on a hat when he went out.

After all, as a clan maid, she can still talk about farming, but she can't talk about opening a shop on the street.

The two went shopping for two days, and Wei Ruo finally took a fancy to the two side-by-side shops near the Drunken Immortal Residence.

The price of the store is not cheap, but Wei Ruo feels that the location is suitable and worthy of the price.

Wei Ruo loves money, but as long as it is worth it, she will spend it without hesitation, and she is reluctant to let the child not be a wolf.

One of them, Wei Ruo, plans to open another branch of Sibao Zhai.

The four treasures of the study must be a place where the nobles gather and there are many students, and the sales are better, and the capital city must be better than the county seat.

As a result, her papermaking workshop had to find a way to expand.

The other three things Wei Ruo did not produce in his own workshop, but purchased them from other shops that Wei Ruo contacted, and the quantity of goods was sufficient; Only this paper is produced in-house, and the production is limited.

Therefore, Sibao Zhai has always sold paper in limited quantities, and sold other products as much as possible to increase sales.
