Qing Chuan's favorite concubine side Fujin

Chapter 105 Zhuangzi’s Inspection
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Yinzhen and Wanyuan set off for another village.

As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of Zhuangzi, the steward, Uncle Hua, and his servants had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Slave to the Fourth Master, please give me my regards, Master. Good luck to the Fourth Master, and good luck to the Master."

Yinzhen helped Wanyuan get out of the carriage and walked in front of everyone, "Everyone, get up."

"Thank you fourth master."

Wanyuan held Yinzhen's hand, pointed at the middle-aged man opposite, and said, "Sir, this is Uncle Hua, the steward of the Zhuangzi. Yuan'er's Zhuangzi has always been managed by Uncle Hua."

Seeing this, Uncle Hua immediately took a few steps forward and saluted the Fourth Master.

"Thanks to the master's trust, Zhuangzi will be handed over to the servants. Since the fourth master and the master are here, let's go in first and talk about it later."

Yinzhen nodded, held Wanyuan's hand, and strolled into the village.

Along the way, Yinzhen saw the greenhouse that Wanyuan mentioned. In addition to growing vegetables, there were also some precious and rare flowers in the greenhouse.The land on Zhuangzi is fertile, and the layout inside is also very clever.

Wanyuan was still pregnant, so she went directly to the pavilion and sat on a chair. "Sir, please take a look first. Yuan'er and Uncle Hua will talk about something first."

"Nothing, I'll stay with you here. After you finish talking about things, you can take me to other places for a stroll." After saying that, Yinzhen sat directly on the chair opposite Wanyuan.

Wanyuan had no intention of stopping Yinzhen's behavior. It was not a big deal anyway, and it was okay for Yinzhen to stay here. "Uncle Hua, show me Zhuangzi's account book for this year."

"The account book has been prepared a long time ago. Master, please wait a moment. I will go and get it right away." Uncle Hua saluted, then turned and left.

At this time, the servants brought tea, fruits and snacks.

Yinzhen picked up a piece of snack in front of him and put it in his mouth to taste. "Yuan'er, when I came along just now, I found that the vegetables and flowers in the greenhouse are growing well. How did you do this?"

"It's actually very simple. As long as the temperature is controlled well, any crop can grow quickly." After Wanyuan tasted the fruits, she told Yinzhen the principles of greenhouse vegetables.

Everything about his village is nothing to hide from Yinzhen.

Just as Yinzhen was listening with interest, Uncle Hua came over with a ledger in hand and interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Master, this year's account books are all here, please take a look."

"Okay." Wan Yuan reached out to take the account book and looked through it directly.It has been a long time since I managed Zhuangzi's affairs. I took advantage of today's opportunity to learn about Zhuangzi's recent situation through the account books.

"The survival rate of vegetables remains stable, the harvest and marketing are good, profits are increasing, and the flowers are also okay..."

When Uncle Hua saw his master mentioning flowers, he said: "Master, the servants grow the precious flowers in Zhuangzi. Except for some of them, they are sold and the rest are collected according to the master's wishes and sent to the shops in the capital. However, I think this , most of the expensive flowers should be sold directly to customers, so the profits will be higher."

"Sold directly to customers, the profit will indeed be higher, but the production of rouge and gouache in the shop requires a large number of petals, and the petals are of high quality. Don't worry, Uncle Hua, I am not short of this money, master, and the sales of flowers will remain unchanged. ." Wanyuan looked at the account book and spoke to Uncle Hua without raising her head.After listening to his master's words, Uncle Hua nodded and understood what his master meant, so he stopped mentioning this topic.

After Wanyuan quickly read the contents of the account book, she put down the account book in her hand. "Uncle Hua, I've read all the ledgers, and there's nothing wrong with it. Zhuangzi's profits are increasing all the time, and it's all thanks to the work of the servants. I'll tell you to give each person a month's salary."

"Yes, I would like to thank my master for the reward." After hearing this, Uncle Hua's face lit up with joy and he bowed to his master.The master is really not short of money. The original monthly salary is already very high, and now that he has received a reward, the servants will definitely continue to serve the master.

"By the way, I remember there is an open space behind Zhuangzi. What is it used for now?"

Uncle Hua thought for a moment and replied: "As far as the master is concerned, the land has never been touched because the master has not given any instructions, and there is no need for Zhuangzi to use this land, so..."

Since no soil has been touched, it will be easy to handle.Wanyuan said with a smile: "From now on, you can plant bamboos in the open space and plant a bamboo forest for me."

"Yes, Master, I will definitely arrange someone to do it."

"Okay, Uncle Hua, I don't have anything to do for the moment. You go and do your work first." Wanyuan explained everything that should be explained clearly and asked Uncle Hua to go down and do things first.

After Uncle Hua left, Yinzhen, who was sitting aside, immediately spoke, "Yuan'er, why did you ask Uncle Hua to plant a bamboo forest?"

"Sir, bamboo can be used for many purposes. Besides, the open space is so large that it would be a pity if it was not used for its function." Wanyuan told Yinzhen her thoughts one by one. She originally planned to give them to her children. It was built for Xiaozhuangzi, but after thinking about it, it is still useful to build a bamboo forest. In the future, the children can practice martial arts in the bamboo forest.

After hearing Wanyuan's thoughts, Yinzhen smiled helplessly. If he bought the vacant land directly, it would be worth a lot of money, but now it is used to build a bamboo forest.No matter, as long as Yuan'er is happy, and besides, it's for her children, so there's nothing wrong with it.

Wanyuan and Yinzhen just sat in the pavilion, chatting and tasting snacks and fruits.Since Wanyuan mentioned children, the next topic between the two of them was about children.

At noon, Yinzhen and Wanyuan stayed here, enjoyed lunch, and then took a carriage back to their original village of Zhuangzi.

When leaving her village, Wan Yuan also took away a lot of fruits. The fruits on her farm were all natural, harmless and tasted great.

"Master, please try the fruits grown on Yuan'er Village. They are very sweet."

Yinzhen looked at the smile on Wanyuan's face, raised the corners of his mouth, reached out to take the fruit from Wanyuan, and put it in his mouth to taste.

Wanyuan watched Yinzhen eat the fruit and asked, "How are you doing, master? Is it delicious?"

"Not bad, plenty of water and sweet taste." Yinzhen praised the fruit, making Wanyuan even happier.

"Then please eat more. Yuan'er's favorite thing to eat is fruit. When she was first pregnant, Yuan'er couldn't eat anything but fruit. At that time..." Wan Yuan tasted the fruit and talked to her. Yinzhen told about her pregnancy experience, showing her love for fruits both inside and outside her words.

Yinzhen looked at Wanyuan talking and laughing, his face was filled with smiles, and he felt happy as well.Only when there are no outsiders around, will my little girl show her active inner side, and only when she is with Yuan'er, will she forget all her worries.
