The farm has a phoenix

Chapter 233 Preparations for the Banquet

Less than a month is not a long time, but Xu Bafen said that he has what the store has, so she doesn't have to worry about it there, as long as Mianqi Villa brings him what it should supply.

So Zhan Jinfeng began to prepare, according to the contract, to prepare one by one.

Things like raisins and fruit wine can be shipped in advance, so Zhan Jinfeng ordered someone to pack them, especially the wine, with a layer of protection to prevent damage during transportation.

In the early stage, these things still had to be transported from Mianqi Villa, because the nearby orchards had not been built yet. As for the travel expenses, Zhan Jinfeng ordered someone to find the caravan. After seeing the cost receipts in front of her, she decided to do it herself in the future. A transportation team not only undertakes the business in the villa, but also undertakes the business from outsiders. In this way, there are profits and the cost can be minimized.

Anyway, this time, let's do it first.

After thinking about it, she decided on this itinerary.

Fruit wine, raisins, haw jelly, canned food, etc. were sent to Nanjiang one by one. Except for fresh fruits, almost everything was brought over. Xu Bafen was very happy, and hurriedly piled up the things in the warehouse first, and then arranged for people to Ready to open.

So in such a busy time, the New Year is gradually approaching.

The New Year is the biggest holiday, and activities are also prepared in the palace. All officials above the fifth rank will come to the palace to watch the new year, so everyone wears court clothes and pays respects one by one.

Zhan Jinfeng and Chen Shaoyan were also preparing at home. She had cultivated the ginseng fruit tree that the emperor wanted, and in the big flowerpot in the greenhouse, a seedling was thriving, very green and growing well.

And next to it, the ginseng fruit tree half as tall as a person is also fresh and green.

During this period of time, the palace did not buy ginseng fruit anymore, and she did not sell it to others. After all, at the feast of the Shou Sui, these things were brought by the emperor to entertain the guests, and there were a few of them for the tribute Huns and Khitans. ethnicity.

So she can only raise her with peace of mind.

During this period, Zhan Jinfeng devoted all her attention to Mianqi Villa. When Chen Shaoyan was busy, she asked Seven to go with her. When she was not busy, she took Seven to go in person. At first, she just watched quietly. After a long time, when the manpower is insufficient, Zhan Jinfeng will not hesitate to ask him to help him.

Although Chun Yuyue said that other fruits were up to her, Zhan Jinfeng knew that since the emperor wanted to show the national strength of the previous dynasty, he must not embarrass Chun Yuyue on this point, otherwise he would be in great trouble.

The apples with words planted in the first half of the year are selling very well. Generally, people who make reservations will have auspicious words such as "Fu", "Shou", "Lu", "Ping An" and "Happiness" printed on them. This time Zhan Jinfeng asked Ye Laogui After writing a new character, it is a huge "Jiang" character.

She chose the most luxuriant apple tree, and removed all the excess fruit and flower bags on the tree, leaving only twelve apples, put them in bags, and nourished a cup of tea every day with her own bracelet. Kung fu, she did this to ensure Apple's size.

Apples can be found all over the world, and they are the most common fruit, but no matter how common they are, she doesn't believe that anyone has ever seen an apple that is about the size of a small watermelon!

And the Great Qian Dynasty can grow such a big apple, no one should be unconvinced, right?

Looking up at the twelve bags wrapped on the green leaves, Zhan Jinfeng felt secretly proud.

As with apples, so with peaches.

It is recorded in the myth that there were fairy peaches in ancient times, one of which could fill a basket, and she also wanted to cultivate huge fat peaches.

The variety of fat peaches is already excellent, and a peach can weigh more than half a catty, while the size of a fairy peach must be the size of four or five fat peaches. Counting the number of people entertained by the palace, all the civil and military officials plus the female family members of the harem, there is still There are more than a hundred envoys from outside, but fortunately, his bracelets can keep fresh, and a batch of peaches can be preserved as soon as they are ripe, so he now sets the output of each peach tree at [-] Well, for this feast, she spent a lot of money, and hoped that the emperor would give some more money by then.

After leaving the peach orchard, she came to the lychee orchard, where bright red lychees hung all over the branches. She didn't plan to make any fuss about this thing. It was a rare thing, and the envoys from the north probably hadn't even seen it before.

She didn't warm up the hawthorn tree either. The hawthorn cake made from this thing is extremely delicious, and it will be served as a side dish when the time comes, to appetize and sober up, that's all.

The same goes for the mare's milk grapes, and all kinds of fruit wines are ready. Zhan Jinfeng made a round of inspections, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the things for Xu Bafen have already been sent out, and the only thing missing is fresh fruits, or another business will be delayed.

Calculate the time, it should be just in time.

When Chen Shaoyan came out of the orchard, his body became dirty, and he didn't understand unless he worked on it himself. After doing this, he realized that taking care of the orchard is not an easy task.

It was hot in the conservatory, and he was sweating all over. When he came out, the cold wind blew, but it was very cold. He let out a breath of steam, and saw Zhan Jinfeng standing at the door of the villa in front of him, his little nose was red from the cold.

He couldn't help evoking a smile, and walked slowly to her side.

The clothes were as dirty as her own, she didn't know what she was thinking, her face was calm, she didn't notice the conscious arrival at all, Chen Shaoyan only felt a little wronged for a moment, but his wife had to work so hard, This should be a man's business.

Thinking about it, he hugged him into his arms. Zhan Jinfeng gave a low cry and looked up in surprise, only to find out who it was.

"After this busy period, let's find a place where men farm and women weave, herd horses and sheep, okay?"

In a word, Zhan Jinfeng almost shed tears. There are too many right and wrong in the capital. When she was in the country, she thought of everything too simply. She came back after her mother's illness was cured, but now her mother's illness has been cured. Well, she can no longer take her mother back, because the capital is, after all, her mother's home.

But Chen Shaoyan's words made her think of herself in the field who was ignorant and happy back then, carefree, with her mother, although sometimes they were hungry and full, but the two of them lived happily , She has always felt that that is really enjoying life.

Seeing her crying suddenly, Chen Shaoyan panicked. He panicked and said, "What's wrong? Don't you want to go? Then we'll stay in the capital."

She smiled lightly and shook her head immediately.

"No, I am willing to go, but can you let Chen's house go?"

Zhan Jinfeng doesn't care, where is his mother, that's his home, but Chen Shaoyan, can he?
