Emperor Kangxi sent me to marry

Chapter 299
To enter the mountain, you must have help.

Haifeng asked Zhang Gong to notify all the strong laborers in the farm that could be spared, and be ready to form a team at any time to go into Daqing Mountain to find gold.

After Zhang Gong heard Haifeng's plan, he boldly spoke up.

"Princess, if you want to find a gold mine, you must first make an agreement with the group of people from Shanxi. I know, what, in the whole world, there is no royal land. They may not know."

"Do you still know this sentence?"

"Hey, I've been to the yamen a few times, and it's opened my eyes. Without free money, no one from the doorman to the lord would even look at us; with money, they would be able to speak what's in the book. , I went there once, and it was the same thing. I have never heard the same thing before. When I become the head of the princess empress, I go to the Yamen again, empty-handed, and all I meet are smiling faces. "

Haifeng felt a little uncomfortable and brought the topic back to Daqing Mountain.

"Lumber is produced here, and gold is produced here. It is really a treasure mountain."

"My lady doesn't know, but there are still lumps of coal in the mountains! There are coal diggers in Shanxi, but we don't know how to dig it, so we always buy it from them. Now that there is a shortage of firewood, coal has become a treasure. .”

"Yes, I understand. You go and call someone. I see, with my riding skills, I can come back before or after lunch. Go and open the warehouse, make a good meal, and reward those who want to go into the mountains." We have to make dry food as well, and they may have to stay in the mountains for a few days. Bring all the clothes, bedding, and cooking staff."

"Hey, let's go, little one."

Haifeng calculated that he still had two or three hours to spare, so he asked Zhang Gong's eldest son-in-law to drive the carriage, and Wu Yue accompanied him in the carriage to inspect the dowry that he had taken from Kangxi.

Finally, I don’t have to ride in that carriage that is falling apart. There are some for my own use at the farm, and the worst ones are [-]% new.A few days ago, Zhang Gong specially hired the most skilled carpenters from Guihua City to make two brand-new cars in order to welcome the fourth princess to Mobei.Haifeng thought that the materials used were solid and the paint work was exquisite. Although it was not as good as the House of Internal Affairs, it was considered extremely rare outside the world.

It is winter in Guihua City for half the year, and the only time when crops can grow is from April to October every year.It's the warmest time of the year right now, and crops are growing vigorously. As far as the eye can see, there are green farmland, which makes people's eyes light up.

Hai Feng saw a very flat farmland with small purple flowers growing in the waist-high green grass. He asked Zhang Gong's eldest son-in-law through the curtain.

"Is that alfalfa?"

"Yes! The princess asked us to try planting it, and it turned out really good. Not only did the cows and horses like to eat it, but the chickens also laid more eggs than usual after eating it. Originally, my father-in-law said that it was a pity that the best land could be planted with grass instead of crops. of."

"I asked you to feed the children less food and use more milk and eggs. Have they grown any longer?"

Wuyue sat next to Haifeng and rushed to answer this question.

She has the most say in this matter.

"Growing up! The princess ordered that every family must provide their children with good food. At first, the villagers were reluctant to part with it. Later, my grandpa took me as an example and asked me to eat more for the first time. I was already thirteen or fourteen years old. They were thin and small. After eating for a few months, they grew taller and turned white. Gradually, some families began to feed their children meat and eggs. Our children in Zhuangzi, even if they go to Guihua City, None of them are smaller than their average age, and they are never bullied."

Hai Feng felt slightly proud and ordered the carriage to go to the place where the livestock was raised.

That is to say, you need to eat more meat, eggs, milk, and protein to gradually improve your physical fitness.

There were no machines in this era, and manpower was an important productive force.If you are unwilling to train, the physical strength of the people under your hands cannot keep up, and they will only remain poor and weak.

There is no guarantee that there will not be a sick man of East Asia among her men.

"In May, is it difficult to see a doctor in Zhuangzi? If it is inconvenient to go to the medical clinic in Guihua City, I will find a doctor and live in Zhuangzi."

"Master, the prince has connections in Guihua City and has made arrangements. As long as we declare our family status, we can get a seat at the hospital. I think it is not troublesome to see a doctor, but it is taboo for old people like my grandfather. Take medicine. That time I asked for toad venom tablets. After a few days of persuasion, grandpa asked someone to write a letter to the master." "That's right. You did the right thing."

The people who raised the livestock were all elites specially recruited by Dobu from the Tushetu Khan tribe, and they took good care of the animals.Haifeng specially ordered them to reward him with money, and asked them to kill the best sheep at noon and make a barbecue for his consort.

As expected, Duobu arrived with his meal in hand and took the lead, far ahead of the large group behind him.

Compared to eating, being thirsty is worse than being hungry.He first poured down two large bowls of cool well water.

"It's all done. The General's Mansion sent three hundred soldiers to escort the villagers into the mountains. The medicinal materials and other goods you asked to buy were loaded on the carts of each shop and delivered together. I watched them set off. I guess, We can get there before dark."

"Then take a rest for the night and set off tomorrow morning. You will lead the team."

"Oh, using princes to dig mines has been a secret from ancient times to the present. Only Her Royal Highness Princess Heshuo Kejing can think of it."

"Why, you don't want to go?"

"Go, where dare you not go? When you get angry, you kick me into the guest room to sleep at night. What can I do?"

Wu Wu brought rice to go with the barbecue. Unexpectedly, he heard the couple talking and was so embarrassed that he put down the tray and ran away.

Dobu held a handful of cumin mutton skewers in his left hand, and held May's sleeve in his right hand, refusing to let her go.

"Yesterday I grabbed chicken legs. For the sake of the princess, I didn't care whether you were big or small. Today I have to make it clear: the only one in the world who can talk to me in that tone is Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess. If you do it again With these frivolous actions, even if Her Royal Highness the Princess likes you, I will have to kick you out of the house. When the time comes, your grandpa will be embarrassed, and I will not care."

Only then did Yuyue come to understand and apologized solemnly, and then Dobu let her go.

Hai Feng sprinkled salt on the mutton skewers beside him. Watching the whole process made him feel very sweet.

"You know a lot about green tea."

"What tea? Do you want hot tea?"

"No. Forget it, you don't understand, this is what the girl says. Hurry up and eat. The meat will become hard when it's cold. After eating, take a nap. You have to be busy at night, and you have to get up early tomorrow."

"Oh, heartless mother-in-law, you also know that I didn't sleep all night. If it weren't for me, who could break open the gate of Guihua City at night? Who could enter the General's Mansion without Feiyanggu? Next, mobilize his soldiers to use them?"

"I know, thank you for your hard work."

"Just this one sentence?"

Haifeng saw that no one was around and quickly kissed Duobu on the face.

"Isn't this outside? Waiting to go home."

There was a little too much salt on the mutton skewers, and Dobu bit into the salt particles.But it doesn't matter, he can't taste salty now, his mouth and heart are all sweet.

　Alfalfa was introduced from the Western Regions in the Han Dynasty and is known as the "King of Forage". When used as a vegetable, it is also known as golden cauliflower.Tao Hongjing's "Famous Doctors" records that when used medicinally, it can clear away heat and reduce swelling.
