Travel to ancient times and make a fortune

After a pause, he added: "Being born in the royal palace may allow Mimi and her siblings to have certain advantages when facing many things, but this advantage is not absolute sometimes. Just like between us , if you hadn’t deliberately concealed your identity from the beginning, maybe we would have gotten together in the end!”

"So, having a good background does not mean that everything will go smoothly. Therefore, it does not mean that Mimi and her siblings will be able to find a lover who shares the same mind and will work together for the rest of their lives!"

When Ouyang Yiyun saw Li Xiao mentioning his identity again, he didn't dare to be a little bit proud. Naturally, he looked flattering like "My lady is right."

Then he racked his brains and used various tricks to coax people, trying to make people forget about their "identity".

The couple was in their own room, helplessly worrying about their daughter's marriage, but the person involved was completely unaware of it.

Wanting has been busy for most of the day today. She and her mother prepared the birthday banquet at noon together, and she took care of the finishing work after the banquet.

In the evening, after having dinner with her family, she went back to the house to unpack today's birthday gift, and then packed it up with the maid. After washing up, she was so tired that she took the bed to sleep. Little girl Wanting, who was sleeping soundly, naturally didn't know her parents were worried.

While Wanting was unwrapping her birthday gift, in a small ordinary courtyard in Anjia City in the far north of Xinjiang, a tall boy of fifteen or sixteen was walking towards the capital in his small courtyard. After looking at it for half an hour, until the night was dark and my body felt slightly chilly, I turned around and returned to the house.

After the triplets' thirteenth birthday, Li Xiao shamelessly begged his princess and mother-in-law to keep Wanting by his side and teach the little girl about housekeeping.

As a grandmother, this was not the first time that Princess Xiaoyao taught her granddaughter about housekeeping. Several of the granddaughters of Prince Xiaoyao who were already married women had studied with the princess, so naturally the princess did not reject Li Xiao.

Therefore, since August, Wanting has taken another course every day in addition to the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting classes: learning housekeeping from her grandmother.

A housekeeper naturally manages all the affairs of a family. As a master, although you don't have to do everything personally, as a person in charge, you should learn to know people and make good use of them, know how to allocate people and materials, how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and how to balance the interests of everyone. These are things Wanting needs to learn in the future.

Seeing his daughter getting busy, Li Xiao, who had not yet gotten over the reluctance of being a "married daughter", could only keep herself busy.

A trip to northern Xinjiang touched Li Xiao a lot. Now that she returned home, she began to think about some things.

He ordered Gao Zhuang and Li Cunliang to collect duck and goose feathers in large quantities from various places in the south, and then rush to make as many down suits as possible. The materials did not need to be too good, but they must be strong and durable.

There are still more than three months before December. She hopes to make as many down jackets as possible and donate them to the soldiers stationed in northern Xinjiang in the name of the palace and the Li family.

I hope that with my meager strength, more soldiers in Northern Xinjiang will be able to avoid the biting cold and have a little more warmth on their bodies.

This matter was naturally discussed with Ouyang Yiyun in advance, and Ouyang Yiyun even went to the palace to talk to the emperor about it the day after the couple's discussion.

Even after discussion, the couple decided not only to donate down jackets, but also to donate [-] kilograms of potato seeds, and to send a team of people to Northern Xinjiang to experiment with planting potato seeds in Northern Xinjiang!
  The emperor was naturally overjoyed when he found out
  You must know that the environment in northern Xinjiang is not suitable for growing food crops. Even if the Zhenbei Army has farms, the food output is extremely low.

Every year, the military supplies allocated by the national treasury to Northern Xinjiang are the largest among all armies, and this amount is still after compression. When the late emperor was still alive, he often used his private property to subsidize the soldiers in northern Xinjiang. The emperor does the same now, but this is not a long-term solution.

It is said that "teaching a man to fish is worse than teaching him to fish." If Northern Xinjiang can increase its own food production while relying on the court and the emperor, then the pressure on the court will be much less!
  "Is this really possible?" There was a trace of uncertainty and a trace of expectation in the words of the king of a country.

"Back to the Emperor, I went to Northern Xinjiang with my wife, and arrived at several big cities in the border area, including Anjia City. Among them, Anjia City, Weijia City and Hujia City all have places suitable for planting potato seeds!"

"Taking into account the environmental conditions in northern Xinjiang, although potato seeds cannot be as high-yielding as in southern Xinjiang, there should still be a chance to achieve a yield of two thousand kilograms per mu." Ouyang Yiyun said with a smile.

"At that time, I can also build a small vermicelli workshop in the three cities. Whether it is ordinary people or military camps, they can go to the workshop to process potato seeds and make vermicelli for a fee. What does the emperor think?"

What else does the emperor think? He naturally agrees happily.

Although they looked like "paid processing" businessmen, the couple were businessmen themselves. It is rare to be able to temporarily give up the nature of "businessman pursuing profit" when it comes to the court.

What's more, they are also preparing to donate a large amount of military supplies and send personnel to guide the planting of potato seeds, which is even more rare!

No wonder, before his death, his father specifically mentioned Cousin Yun and his wife to him. His father really had a foresight!
  Ouyang Yiyun didn't know what the emperor was thinking. After reporting the matter to Emperor Ming and obtaining some permission, Ouyang Yiyun returned to the palace.

It was now August, and August and September happened to be the harvest season for potatoes. He had to make arrangements as soon as possible to select [-] kilograms of potatoes suitable for seeding, so that he could send them to Shazang in Northern Xinjiang before it freezes. .

As for the down jackets, the finished products driven out from all over the south will be collected and then sent to northern Xinjiang.

Naturally, the couple's actions were not hidden from the elders of the two families, but none of the four elders commented, giving the couple the respect and trust they deserved.

The children also knew what their parents had done. Apart from their initial surprise, the rest was full of admiration and admiration for their parents.

The couple started to get busy again, and the children became more and more trouble-free, just to keep their parents busy.

Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, it is already the first day of October.

A month ago, [-] kilograms of potatoes were planted starting from the capital. After six days, they finally arrived in northern Xinjiang.

A few days ago, down jackets that were rushed to be made from various places were finally delivered one after another. The couple sorted them out and found a total of [-] sets!

After Li Xiao waited for the down jackets from various places to pass the random inspection, he immediately asked Ouyang Yiyun to hand over the items to the emperor and asked him to arrange for people to be sent to northern Xinjiang as soon as possible!
