Escape from the famine at the beginning: I rely on space to spoil Lord Shoufu

Chapter 341 Maybe This Is A Simple Chance

"Who misses him?"

Jian Shiming was still stubborn, and walked out of the barracks quickly, causing Gu Ye who was behind to chase after him.

"Brother Jian, don't wait for me."

"It's not like you don't know the way."

Jian Shiming snorted softly, but still slowed down. Seeing how arrogant he was, Tao Xi couldn't hold back his laughter anymore.

This man is really cute.

Winter is coming soon, and the Xiwang chain stores in Taoxi are constantly expanding and busy.

With the Gu family as a good businessman, soon the Xiwang chain store opened quietly all over the city.

Now Tao Xi is even more troubled by the problem of raw materials. There are not enough workers, so she asked the county magistrate to set up several factories.

These factories are not under the name of Xiwang Chain, but belong to the industry of Yun County. After all, Yun County is now the fiefdom of Taoxi, so the money is not much different from what she earned.

However, Taoxi plans to put the profits of these factories in the school. The citrus has been harvested, and the inexhaustible Taoxi has been made into cans.

She also had a lot of canned fruits in her space, and let the workers do it outside, and now Yun County has another special product.

Gu Ye was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear again, and when he was happy, he brought Liu Xu to their island to eat and drink for several days.

Tao Xi: ...

I thank you!
Just as Taoxi and the others were preparing for the cold winter, several carriages rattled towards Yun County.

An octogenarian on the carriage was closing his eyes to rest, and the young man beside him whispered:
"Old Qi, do you really want to return to Yun County to live for a long time? This Yun County is a poor and remote place. It has just experienced a disaster, and now it is still someone else's fiefdom, so it is not suitable for long-term residence."

"No matter how poor you are, it's still my hometown."

Elder Qi quietly opened his eyes, and there was firmness in those cloudy eyes, and the young man couldn't help worrying.

"But there isn't a good doctor in this place, just in case your body..."

"I am a doctor myself!"

Elder Qi glanced indifferently at the young man who closed his eyes, apparently refusing to talk.

The young man was very helpless, he could only suppress the depression in his heart, thinking of going back and persuading him, it doesn't matter to come back and stay for a while.

It's not a good place to stay in this remote place all the time.

The carriage rattled to Yun County, and the groom outside reminded him in a low voice, "Master, we're in Yun County."

"Let me see."

Old Qi opened his eyes quickly, and hastily lifted the curtain of the carriage. He thought that what he saw was the dilapidated city gate, but the clinker was facing the majestic city wall.

The city wall was very high, even comparable to the city wall of the imperial palace, and there were soldiers standing on the city wall, maybe it was winter, and the control was stricter during this time.

Old Qi's eyes were filled with shock, and the young man on one side opened his mouth wide open, "Old Qi, this...is this Yun County?"

"Ah."

Elder Qi replied indifferently, covering up the shock in his eyes, but kept looking around at Yun County with his cloudy eyes.

Is this... the Yun county under the management of that county head?

It was too far from before. If the words at the gate of the city were not too conspicuous, they all thought they had gone to the wrong place.

Entering the city, the bustling streets made the old Qi's eyes pop out of shock.

Of course, Kyoto is also so prosperous. To their surprise, this is a city that has just suffered a disaster. Although it has been a year, it is still very shocking to recover to this appearance.

"That's it, nothing compares to Kyoto."

In the last carriage, a pretty little girl pouted and said disgusting words, but her eyes fell curiously on the fresh food in those shops.

It's not that I haven't eaten it, these prefectures also have it, but the variety seems to be not as many as here.

"Girl, you are hungry. There is still food here."

Next to the little girl, a girl dressed as a maid found a lot of dry food from the carriage, which made Qi Fu extremely disgusted.

"No, let's talk about it when we get to the place."

If Grandpa hadn't insisted on bringing her back, she wouldn't want to come to such a ghostly place.

In the restaurant, Tao Xizheng and Jian Shiming were looking at the account books, and when they looked up, they saw the carriage passing by below.

The carriage seemed to come from other places, and there were quite a few people there, Tao Xi couldn't help but glanced at it, but he didn't take it seriously, instead he said to Qing Zhi:
"You let the people in the factory hurry up and make all the cotton into cotton clothes and quilts."

In the past two days, she can also feel a significant drop in temperature. Maybe this winter is even colder than last year.

"Okay, master."

Qingzhi wrote down everything Tao Xi said in a small notebook, and after explaining everything, Tao Xi and Jian Shiming went downstairs slowly, just in time to see a little girl alighting from the carriage that had just passed by.

The girl muttered, "I don't know when my grandfather will be able to return to Kyoto. How can this small place compare to Kyoto."

While talking, she took the maid to the opposite food street, which was the snack street that Tao Xi recently let Mrs. Xu recreate.

There are many food stalls inside, which are run by people from Xiwang Island, and there are people coming and going every day, so it is very lively.

Tao Xi looked at the backs of those people, shook his head and laughed.

"This girl probably came back with some official who retired from old age and returned home."

Jian Shiming's eyes were dark, and he hoped that the family could live in peace and not provoke his wife.

"Probably yes, let's ask the county magistrate later."

Tao Xi nodded slightly. After all, he was a hero of Dafeng, and they would also like to express their condolences during the New Year and holidays.

The two of them just regarded it as an episode and didn't take it seriously until one day the county magistrate came to Xiwang Island.

"County Lord, that... Elder Qi wants to see you."

The county magistrate's embarrassing expression made Tao Xi stunned, and she looked at Jian Shiming who was on the side.

Jian Shiming told Tao Xi the news he had inquired in the past two days, "Mr. Qi is an old imperial doctor who recently retired and returned to our hometown in Yun County."

Of course, what Jian Shiming didn't say was that before returning to his hometown, he was the head of the Tai Hospital, that is, the dean.

Tao Xi was dumbfounded again, "Why does Mr. Qi suddenly want to see me?"

She doesn't seem to have any connection with Qi Lao.

The county magistrate shook his head at Tao Xi, "I don't know, but it should be a good thing."

After all, the county magistrate has seen that Elder Qi is quite satisfied with Yun County in the past two days. Since he wants to see the county lord, it must be because this Yun county belongs to the county lord.

"Okay, then I'll follow you to meet him."

Tao Xi asked Qingzhi to prepare a gift, and wanted to bring Jian Shiming, but Jian Shiming refused.

"Although Mr. Qi has returned to his hometown, he is an important member of Dafeng. It is better for me not to show up for the time being."

After the Chinese New Year, he has to take part in the scientific examination again, so it is not suitable to get too close to him.

"Alright."

Tao Xi thought that the other party used to be an imperial doctor, so he simply brought Jian Shiyi, who was concocting medicinal materials in the courtyard, with him.

In fact, Jian Shiyi was still reluctant, "Sister-in-law, where are we going?"

"Well, accompany my sister-in-law to meet someone."

Tao Xi got into the carriage with a smile, perhaps, this was an opportunity for Jian Shiyi.
