Jiangmen's direct daughter is busy farming

Chapter 53
Master Kongzhi, the abbot of the Chaofo Temple, heard that the statues in the main hall showed miracles, and led the monks in the temple to kneel in front of the statues and chant sutras.

The outside of the main hall was already full of people kneeling. Regarding the appearance of the miracle, people did not dare to speak arbitrarily, and they all put their hands together reverently, and bowed to the main hall again and again.

After the emperor heard about this incident, he led all the civil and military officials to pay homage to the Buddha in person.

As the patriarch of the royal family, Prince Mingde chatted with Master Kongzhi alone in the meditation room for a long time. As soon as he came out and returned to the clan prince's mansion, he immediately called the elders of the clan to discuss matters.The next day, the royal Xiao family donated [-] shi of grain to the people of Huazhou.

Soon, the patriarchs of big families continued to ask to see Master Kongzhi, and when they came out of the Chaofo Temple, they would immediately go home to convene a discussion with the clan, and then donate food to Huazhou.Some donated 20 shi, some donated [-] shi. In less than five days, Lord Xian raised [-] shi of grain and quickly shipped it to Huazhou.At this point, the crisis in Huazhou was truly resolved.

While everyone was discussing the miracle of Chaofo Temple and the disaster relief food in Huazhou, Jingyue had been shutting the door in her room on the farm for several days. No one knew what she was doing in there, even the four The servant girl only went in when she called her, and she usually didn't dare to disturb her.

After a wind and rain to welcome the early autumn, the earth gradually began to change its clothes, and the vibrant green clothes began to change silently into the fruit-laden yellow yarn. Busy farmers can be seen everywhere in the fields.

Jingyue has already transplanted all the seedlings bred in the seedling house into the greenhouse for the arrival of autumn sowing.

Although Sun Bo and the others are all experts in the crop field, they do not have advanced basic knowledge of agriculture to rely on. Therefore, Jingyue has been in the room for a few days, doing simple farming with the few farming books left by Doctor Who. Organized and made into a farming reference book with illustrations.

Jingyue asked Leng Yu to call Sun Bo, Tian Dazhuang and others to her study.Seeing Jingyue shutting herself in the room these days, people in Zhuangzi thought that her dementia had relapsed, and no one dared to disturb her. They just expressed their concern through Guanshi Song.

"Second Miss, what do you want us to do?" Uncle Sun observed Jingyue's expression, except for a little tiredness, there was no difference from before.

"Uncle Sun, this is a simple farming tool book that I have written in the past few days. It will teach you how to select better quality wheat and rice seeds, as well as how to fertilize, irrigate, and control pests. I have asked Uncle Erlin to hurry up and make the necessary farming tools." Jingyue paused and said again. "This pamphlet is not suitable for more people to know, especially the method of making fertilizer and the prescriptions for treating diseases and insect pests."

Uncle Sun and the others were all literate. At this moment, he was holding the boxy, thick booklet that Jingyue handed him, his eyes were shocked and revered, and his movements were reverent and sacred.

At this moment, he thought that Jingyue in front of him was the reincarnation of a god and man, who was specially here to rescue the suffering people.Tian Dazhuang, Han Kang and others also respected Jingyue in their hearts.

"Second Miss, don't worry! My Uncle Sun will risk his life to protect what Second Miss entrusted to me!" said Uncle Sun with tears in his eyes.The people of Xi Dynasty will have a better life in the future, and there will never be so many people starving to death.

It was hard for Jingyue to say anything, these ancient farmers were very simple and honest, and she also absolutely believed in the loyalty of Uncle Sun and the others, so she was very relieved to teach them some important farming knowledge in her hands first.

"Miss, Guanshi Song is here!" Leng Shuang walked in from the door.

After Uncle Sun and others went out, Guanshi Song came in, and Jingyue asked him to sit aside and talk.

"Second miss, everything you want is ready. Don't worry about the manpower. They are all from our Song family. I don't know, let me come here at this time, what's the matter?" Song Guanshi asked.

Jingyue said: "Uncle Er Lin is tired these days! However, I want to ask Uncle Er Lin for his opinion on some things."

"Second Miss, please tell me!"

"How about we open a pickle shop in the capital?"

Jingyue wants to only sell fresh vegetables, and the land consumption is too large. At present, she needs more fertile land to grow food.Although the Song family has a thousand acres of good farmland in the western suburbs, the southern suburbs are all hills, slopes and sandy land. The real good farmland is less than a hundred acres. thirsty.

"Why does Second Miss want to open a shop?" Manager Song felt a little strange, the Song family was not short of money!

Jingyue smiled and said: "Of course it's for making money. If you only rely on the salaries of your father and a few uncles, you can't support this big family. Although these lands can make the Song family self-sufficient, you can also sell some vegetables. Making money with food, but this is far from enough. These lands will be my seed base in the future, and all the things grown are not for eating and selling, so now we have to find ways to increase some income."

Song Guanshi did not expect Jingyue to have such a long-term and important plan, so he naturally supports Jingyue's actions very much, but he will not support blindly: "Second miss, you can open a pickle shop, but it can't make money like antique porcelain. In other words, it is no problem for the Song family to open a restaurant now, but it is too eye-catching in Beijing, and it is easy to cause trouble!"

"Uncle Erlin, you are right! The restaurant will open again in the future. I don't understand antique porcelain, but I am good at cooking. How about this? Aunt Lin and I will lead the pickle shop in charge of the women in the village. As for Do you want to open another shop, you can discuss it with grandpa and let them decide what to do?" Jingyue plans to open a pickle shop to test the water first, and if the business is good, she also plans to open a private restaurant.

"Okay, everything will be done according to the second lady's instructions!" Song Guanshi also wanted to take this opportunity to see how capable his second lady is, and whether she is also good at business.

Jingyue is a man of action by nature, as soon as the pickle shop was confirmed, she asked Zhongbao to go shopping around the capital to see if there was any suitable shop for sale.On the other hand, she also asked Aunt Lin and Sister Cheng to be in charge of pickling pickles.

More than half a month later, in an inconspicuous place in the downtown area of ​​East Avenue in Beijing, a "Yunshanglai Pickle Shop" suddenly popped up one day. There were simple and elegant four-character door couplets hanging on both sides of the shop. Dishes are like god sauce", and on the right is "customers come like clouds".

Pedestrians who came and went laughed and said: "Don't look at the small shop of this pickle shop, but the tone is not small!" However, more people wondered in their hearts: "What does this pickle shop sell? What are pickles?"

On the day of the official opening, Jingyue came to East Street disguised as a man.This bustling and bustling East Street looks similar to a modern food street, with the most restaurants, tea shops, pastry shops, and dried fruit shops. Of course, gambling houses and brothels are also indispensable in crowded places.
