031 High-yielding rice seeds

Pei Qing read the letter word by word three times.

β€”β€”It feels like reading a copybook, each word is handsome and free, into the wood, and forgetful of the vulgar.

Regardless of the writing, just this good stroke can bring people spiritual enjoyment.

After a long time, she still couldn't get enough of sliding her gaze to the payment.

"Huang Seventeen?" Pei Qing's soft voice spit out these three words, "What is this name?" ”

Is this a person's name?

His parents' naming skills weren't very good.

"Why Seventeen? And not eighteen, or sixteen? She asked Li Yi curiously.

Li Yi's eyes slowly moved with her fingers, and he said lightly: "There are more than 20 children of men and women in his family, and he is the seventeenth, so his name is Huang Seventeen." ”

Pei Qing took a breath, looked at the beautiful words again, and sighed: "It's not simple. ”

can afford to raise more than 20 children, and can also let the children grow up smoothly and receive an excellent education...... Now she is sure that this Huang family is a wealthy family.

After thinking about it, she said to Li Yi: "You help me reply to Huang Gongzi and ask him if he is interested in doing the medicinal herb business." ”

Since lime mines cannot be found in a short period of time, then put manpower into planting medicinal materials, because the profit of medicinal materials will exceed that of soap.

She explained to him: "Fortunately, you told me that there are so many medicinal herbs that can be used near Xixian County, and I am going to arrange for people to plant them in large quantities, starting with Angelica, and after harvesting, they can be sold to the Huang family's caravan first." ”

Li Yi nodded lightly: "This is easy to do." ”

He said that it was easy to do, and it should definitely be done, because he never spoke and didn't count-this, Pei Qing was very satisfied.

After finalizing another entry, she was in a very excited mood, and it happened that it was still early, so she instructed Li Yi: "Prepare the horse, I want to go to the mine." ”

After a few days of mining, presumably a lot of ore has been mined from the stone sulfur mine, and her system space can come in handy again.

Like last time, Li Yi led the horse on foot, Pei Qing sat on the horse, and the two went to the mountain where the stone sulfur mine was located alone.

The mountain is not far away, there are some dug stones at the foot of the mountain, just 1 can be used for Pei Qing to get off the horse, since the last time she pierced the heel, when she got off the horse, she habitually looked for the "dismount stone" first, fortunately, this time it was very smooth, she stepped on the stone steadily and got off the horse, and did not hurt her feet at all.

After getting off the horse, Li Yi stretched out his arm, as if he wanted her to hold him, but she ignored him.

She walked lightly towards the mine, so that Li Yi had to speed up her pace.

Now the only people who are mining are those who have committed crimes in the former county, and the two royal servants act as supervisors to supervise their mining, because there are few people, so the ore production is not much.

Pei Qing drove everyone into the mine, and when only she and Li Yi were left outside, she walked around the ore piled up outside, and most of the ore was lost.

Li Yi saw with her own eyes that everywhere she went, the ore disappeared piece by piece, as if swallowed by an invisible monster.

"Is this immortal?" He asked Pei Qing in surprise.

Pei Qing turned around, not minding her superhuman means being exposed in front of Li Yi's eyes at all, and she replied confidently: "Yes." ”

She observed his eyes with great interest, and asked slightly provocatively, "Are you afraid?" Whoa, I can make you gone! ”

Actually, no, the All Worlds Trading System cannot store and trade animals, including primate humans.

Li Yi smiled dumbly, and suddenly asked: "In this way, I don't have to worry about the safety of the princess after I leave." ”

Pei Qing: ......

Is this shooting yourself in the foot?

"No, no, I still need the protection of Guard Li," she said sincerely, "King Rui's Mansion needs you!" ”

Li Yi chuckled and shook his head, but did not change his mind.

After receiving the ore, Pei Qing returned to the palace under his escort, hurriedly retreated left and right, and opened the Wanjie trading system.

"System, I want to exchange for high-yielding rice seeds."

[Can be exchanged, please choose a general equivalent...... The general equivalent is selected as sulfur raw ore...... Start Redeeming 】

Soon, an earthy yellow light flashed through the bed, and almost at the same time, the rice seeds flowed down like water, and soon all over the floor.

However, because there is not as much ore as last time, the high-yield rice seeds exchanged are not as many as the high-yield wheat seeds last time, but it is enough for Pei Qing.

There is a river in Xixian County, which is suitable for planting rice, but Pei Qing thinks that more can be cultivated, the original rice seeds have been planted, presumably the yield will not be very good, and now there are high-yield rice seeds, which can be used as a supplement to wheat and expand the source of food.

Pei Qing asked Ah Xing to call Ah Ji, and asked Ah Ji to lead people to harvest rice seeds, breed according to the method recorded in "Qi Min Yaoshu", and instructed her to expand the cultivation area as much as possible.

Sold from the south, Ah Ji has a natural love for growing rice, and she took the job and quickly chose a place to raise seedlings.

However, when Aji planned to open up the wasteland to grow high-yield rice, he encountered an accident.

- In the area of wasteland, there are tigers.

Thirty men went to farm, and twenty-nine returned.

When Pei Qing received the news, these twenty-nine people were trembling in the school hall rebuilt from the main courtyard of the palace.

All of them were pale, and their hands holding hot water bowls trembled from time to time, and most of them had spilled water.

"Princess Niangniang......" The moment Ah Ji saw Pei Qing, he forgot the rules of the Rui Palace, and fell to his knees at her feet, all the panic and fear were replaced by tears.

Pei Qing ordered her to get up, asked someone to bring her a handkerchief to wipe her face, and waited for her to cry so much that she couldn't breathe, and then asked calmly: "Tell me slowly, what happened?" ”

It turned out that the original paddy fields in Xixian County were planted with native rice, and Ah Ji wanted to perfectly carry out her order, so she walked an extra section of the upper reaches of the Xihe River, planning to turn a large piece of barren grassland into a water source.

Aji's plan was not wrong, but the mistake was that there were often animals in that place to drink, and when they scattered to cultivate the land, the tiger took a lone man away.

When a tiger was discovered, the others ran back to the county without saying a word, and they were all almost scared to death.

As for the man who was taken by the tiger...... It must be more than lucky.

Ah Ji cried and convulsed, not only because of fear, but also because he felt that he was ashamed of the princess's entrustment.

After listening to what happened, Pei Qing slowly looked over and saw twenty-nine trembling faces.

She had never realized for a moment that this was a real ancient world, wild, backward, and difficult.

The power of the individual is so insignificant against this malevolent world.

"We can't give up on that compatriot who fell into the jaws of the tiger." She raised her voice a little and said to all the people in the main courtyard, "Please think about it, if you replace yourself with that person, do you want to be saved by everyone?" ”

Everywhere she looked, everyone lowered their heads in shame, and some cried.

Pei Qing said word by word: "For me, everyone in the former county is precious, so now I announce that the county's regiment will be dispatched to catch tigers and save people!" ”

Her words were like water in a pot of oil, and everyone who heard it instantly boiled.

Tigers, big insects, fierce beasts since ancient times, and powerful creatures like mountain gods - the princess Niangniang actually wants to use the power of the whole county to get rid of the tiger?

Is this taking people too lightly or taking them too seriously.

People were excited and frightened, and they all looked at Pei Qing uneasily, as if they were looking at a living god.

Pei Qing saw the Chen guards standing behind the crowd, she beckoned and said, "Instructor Chen." ”

Guard Chen stepped forward and arched his hand: "The subordinates are here!" ”

"You are in command of today's operation, and I command you, first, to ensure the safety of everyone, and second, to kill the wounded tiger; Third, bring back those who have fallen into the jaws of the tiger, whether dead or alive! After Pei Qing finished speaking categorically, he found that the courtyard was silent.

After a pause, she added: "Today, all the group exercises participating in the tiger hunting operation will be given fifty yuan each." ”

In the next moment, everyone in the courtyard who heard her words couldn't restrain themselves from bursting into cheers: "Princess Niangniang Chitose!" ”

With these cheers, the morale of the people was unprecedentedly high, and they took up all the weapons they could hold, and those who really did not have weapons took the door bolts, and those who did not even have the door bolts, so they broke off the branches from the trees, and one by one they formed a murderous phalanx and rushed out of the former county.

These new girls in Cuiwan have not been incorporated into the group training, and there can be no one in the palace after all.

Cuiwan saw with her own eyes that the people of Xixian County were originally depressed, but they were told by Princess Rui's words that their morale was high, and their fighting spirit was steaming, as if they were going to fight not a tiger but a kitten......

At this moment, Cuiwan's blood couldn't help but heat up.

However, she soon remembered that she had a great enmity against her master, and she could not be free to be enthusiastic, and she had to stay still, so she had to regretfully watch the regimental training soldiers go away.

She realized in hindsight that Princess Rui was such a beautiful woman, but her tongue could be used as a big killer for attacking cities and plundering land, how could she be a "powerful" person.

Cuiwan thought, this Princess Rui is definitely not one of those noble ladies in the capital who can only fight in the back house with concubines and concubines, she is completely different from them!

*

After the team of fighting tigers set off, Li Yi hurried to Pei Qing's side, and he was greatly relieved to see that she led the crowd out without impulse.

As soon as Pei Qing saw him, he asked, "When will the Huang family caravan send the blacksmith?" ”

She needed iron tools, not only for blacksmiths for farm tools, but also for bows and arrows and swords, and she could no longer bear to have the people of Xixian face the wilderness and beasts with their bare hands.

Li Yi instantly felt her emotions, and he replied quickly: "At the latest, the Huang family's caravan will arrive in Xixian County in three days at the latest." ”

Pei Qing's breath calmed down a little, she would not regret why she sent people to open up the wasteland, she wanted to feed so many people, and wanted to feed more people, no matter how much arable land was enough, she couldn't waste food because of choking, she could only push it forward according to the set goal.

"Get the family of the man who was taken away by the tiger." She instructed A-Xing.

Ah Xing left quickly and came back quickly.

"Princess Niangniang, that person has no family, and everyone in his family is dead." Ah Xing reported.

Pei Qing fell silent, it seemed that he couldn't find the sufferer if he wanted to compensate.

It wasn't until it was almost dark that the people who went out to hunt tigers returned to the palace exhausted.

In the courtyard of the main courtyard of the palace was a huge dead tiger, whose body was smashed and its head was flattened.

Chen Weiwei reported: "Princess Niangniang, there is this tiger on the nearby mountain, no one has found it, I don't know if it was eaten up or ran away." ”

Pei Qing asked with concern: "Is anyone injured?" ”

Chen Weiwei glanced at Li Yi who was standing behind her vaguely, and replied loudly: "Qi Yu Niangniang, no." ”

Then, he received a look of implied approval from the Lord.

Chen Guard: Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life.

Pei Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said categorically: "Everyone has worked hard, add dinner to dinner!" ”

Then she turned around and whispered to Li Yi with her back to the dead tiger: "Open the tiger's belly and see if the person is inside?" ”

Li Yi glanced at her with sharp eyes, and also whispered.

After returning to the garden building, Pei Qing sat on the chair and began to distract.

"It would be nice if I could exchange it for the Spirit Arrow Tower that can defend itself." She muttered to herself.

The system answers: [What are you thinking about peaches to eat?] 】

The system complained: [Now the system has not recovered to 10%, even in the heyday of the system, the Spirit Arrow Tower you want to exchange is not so easy to exchange, you need a large amount of general equivalents, okay?] 】

System comfort: [But you can now exchange the design drawings of Seiko swords, bows and arrows, which are very cheap.] 】

Pei Qing was silent.

No wonder there is a saying that "weakness is the original sin", and if the power does not develop, even a wild animal can bully you.

"When the blacksmith comes, I'll exchange it!" She had the final word.

After three days of such longing, the Huang family's caravan finally came.

Under Pei Qing's repeated urging, Li Yi took her to the city tower of the former county.

The tower is narrow and dilapidated, barely two people side by side, and there is no gatehouse.

Standing on the city tower and looking down, I saw a long team of people and horses coming from the official road in the distance, stretching for several miles.

"The caravan of the Huang family runs the frontier line," Li Yi told Pei Qing, "From the southernmost point to the northernmost point, the Huang family does all kinds of business, and this branch in Laixi County is mainly engaged in the medicinal herb business." ”

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, he saw Pei Qing's eyes light up.

"What are they selling to the frontier?" She asked with interest.

The frontier is stationed in the border army, what can be bought?

Li Yi explained: "There are two countries in the frontier market, and the Huang family does not sell things to the army, but to the northern barbarian countries. ”

The Huang family transported salt, tea, and porcelain to sell to the people of the Northern Barbarian Kingdom, and then purchased cattle, sheep, cheese and other goods from the border of the Northern Barbarian Kingdom and transported them back to the Dayan Dynasty, and obtained a lot of money.

Of course, they will also buy medicinal materials produced in various places along the way, after all, they came to the frontier in the name of "medicinal herb merchants".

"It seems that the volume of their mutual market should be not small." Pei Qing pondered thoughtfully.

If the volume is not large, can you use the cloak to find an excuse to sell medicinal herbs?
