A businesswoman with a sharp edge, a genius cultivator

Chapter 87

imperial decree?Zixi was stunned for a moment, the emperor was so far away, how could the emperor give her an imperial edict?And listening to this voice, is it the father-in-law in the palace who delivered the decree?
The high-pitched voice was very high-pitched, and everyone in the Jasper Fragrance heard it. Father Ye and Mother Ye came out in a hurry, and Yun Ya also hurried out. What he saw was the magistrate of Puqing County leading a white-haired and bearded man. Father-in-law, come in through the main entrance.

The father-in-law held up a bright yellow imperial decree, the silk embroidered with dragons and pearls, and the solemn guard of honor all showed that this was no joke.

Zixi stood up and was stunned. Is this true?
"Zixi, holy...imperial decree?" Ye Niang trembled as she spoke, she never thought that imperial decree, something that only wealthy people have, would appear in her home.

An imperial decree can kill a person, or it can make a person extremely rich, whether it is poor or rich, it all depends on the content.

Zixi didn't know what the purpose of the edict was, and was stunned for a moment.

"Ye Zixi, the imperial decree has arrived, why don't you kneel down to accept it?" The father-in-law didn't point at Zixi, but asked lightly.

Zixi, who has never had the habit of kneeling and worshiping others, feels a little uncomfortable, but in the current situation, if she does not kneel down to accept the decree, I am afraid that she will end up resisting the decree and being disrespectful.

"Zixi, kneel down to receive the order!" Ye Niang and Ye Daddy had already knelt down beside her, and looking around, only Zixi stood there in a daze.

Zixi raised her head, looked at Mr. Baibeard with firm eyes, smiled lightly, lifted her robe and knelt down on her knees, "Ye Zixi accepts the order!"

What are you being stubborn about?This is not the modern society where everyone is equal. This is a world of imperial power centered on the emperor. If you want to survive, you have to bow your head.

Father Ye and Niang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Zixi was frightened because he had never seen the imperial decree.

Only then did Mr. Whitebeard nod his head, unfold the imperial decree and slowly open his mouth: "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the decree said that there is a daughter Ye Zixi in Liuxi Town, who is intelligent and kind, and has made great contributions to saving people from epidemics and disasters. , reward 1000 taels of gold, [-] bolts of brocade, and [-] mu of fertile land, hereby!"

The voice of Mr. Baibeard fell, not to mention Zixi, everyone was stunned, the emperor was sitting in Lanmu Huangdu, how could he know Ye Zixi in this small Liuxi town?And it took a lot of trouble to issue an award from the imperial capital?

The county magistrate of Puqing County who followed the father-in-law also had a look of disbelief. He didn't know the content of the imperial decree before. He was already very horrified when he heard the imperial decree for Ye Zixi. He didn't expect it to be a decree to reward the county magistrate.

Pingxi, Pingxi, included all her credits in this name. Although the county lord is only an idle job, she was also conferred by the emperor himself. The weight is different.

How could Ye Zixi, He De, let the emperor seal it himself?
The mayor was trembling. He never thought that Ye Zixi would become the county lord, and his rank was higher than him. Sure enough, Longyun Shoal would fly into the sea one day.

Ye's father and Ye's mother looked confused, although they knew that their daughter had contributed a lot to this epidemic, she was distributing money, giving medicine, delivering food and fruits, and even giving away all the things that could be taken out of the fields. They all contributed, but never thought that the emperor would seal it himself!
Zixi was even more stunned. She had never seen any emperor, and she never let anyone publicize her achievements. Even if the people in Liuxi Town respected her, it was only limited to Liuxi Town. How could it reach the emperor's ears? middle?

The father-in-law has already closed the imperial decree, Zixi seemed to be stunned and raised his eyebrows, "Ye Zixi, what an honor it is for the emperor to personally issue a reward, why don't you hurry up and accept the decree to thank you?"

Zixi felt like waking up from a dream, and gave a light blessing, "Ye Zixi accepts the order to thank you."

Holding the imperial decree with both hands, Zixi is still in doubt, but the imperial decree is already in her hands, she is definitely the lord of Pingxi County.

"Our family congratulates Ms. Ye. She was able to become the head of the county at a young age and was favored by the emperor." The white-bearded father-in-law smiled very kindly, which was somewhat different from the father-in-law in Zixi's imagination.

"Elder-in-law is too polite, Zixi is ashamed." Zixi said modestly.

"Hehe, the imperial decree has been issued, you should be your Pingxi County Lord well, and if you have anything to do, just ask others to do it." The father-in-law said with a smile.

"Eunuch Xie, Zixi doesn't have any good things, so this piece of blood jade is Zixi's wish." Zixi untied a piece of exquisite blood jade hanging from his waist and gave it to Eunuch Baibeard, but he stretched out his hand and refused. .

"Miss Ye, don't worry, I'm just following orders, and I may have to rely on Miss Ye in the future." The white-bearded father-in-law laughed, and then took out a silk cloth from his arms like a baby and slowly opened it, "This is my home. The master gave it to Miss Ye, if one day you come to the imperial capital and take this jade pendant outside the gate of the palace, someone will give you convenience."

The Hetian jade in the hands of Eunuch Baibeard is warm and cool, exquisite in workmanship, a dragon is entrenched in it, surrounded by clouds, and as big as a palm, it is not ordinary at first glance. Isn't Eunuch's master the emperor?
The emperor knew her?Zixi frowned.

"Miss Ye, please accept it, and our family will leave first." Eunuch Baibeard said with a smile.

Zixi nodded, took the jade pendant and sent her father-in-law out. Until the convoy left, there was still silence amidst the fragrance of jasper.

"Master Pingxi County?" Ye Niang asked in a low voice, puzzled.

"Pingxi county lord appointed by the emperor himself! Zixi, you are amazing!" Father Ye was very excited. No one in their family had ever achieved such an achievement, but Zixi has achieved it!
With a wealth of wealth, a reputation far and wide, and being conferred by the emperor himself, he knew that his daughter was not easy, but happiness came so quickly that he was a little confused.

"Zixi, have you met the emperor?" Father Ye asked seriously after being excited. The mayor, Liu Wenyang, and the magistrate of Puqing County all stared at Zixi intently, waiting follow her answer.

The corner of Zixi's mouth twitched, and he shook his head, "Never."

"Then why is it a reward and a jade pendant? This jade pendant is not simple at first glance." Ye Niang also asked with a frown.

"I don't know either." Zixi shook her head, she was still in a daze, how could she know?
Everyone was speechless, and the parties didn't know the reason. What kind of trouble is this?
Although Zixi doesn't care about such a reward, it doesn't mean that other people don't care. From this day on, people in Liuxi Town all call her the Lord of Pingxi County. The glory of Brook Town.

Zixi had no choice but to agree.

Jasper Fragrance opened normally, and a large part of the villagers who originally worked for Zixi farming were lost in this plague. Zixi began to recruit people while distributing comfort money. Lian Yu and Tian Fushen were in Liuxi The town, not dragged down by the disaster, is only now really busy.

In the past, those who grew fruits still grew fruits, those who grew medicinal materials still grew medicinal materials, and those who grew rice still used rice. Even the thousand acres of fertile land given by the emperor were hired to grow rice.

The rice given by Zixi is about to bear fruit and mature, and it will not be used for half a month after planting. The field is golden, and I don’t know how this winter and spring produced millet. These villagers who have disaster relief funds can exchange for food, and no one investigates how the off-season crops come from. Instead, they think that Zixi is a living Bodhisattva sent by the sky to save everyone.

In a disaster, a full meal and a piece of warm clothes are a piece of warmth. Zixi knows this truth well, and twists everyone's hearts together to create wealth for herself and the construction of Liuxi Town.

The mayor was naturally happy to see the success, and let Zixi do it. Even Lu Yifeng from New Moon City came to greet him, and those who had rice cooperation with Zixi all visited and re-established the chain organization one by one.

They have experimented with the rice grown by Zixi, but they can't grow such a soft and full-bodied rice. The reason is that Zixi still hasn't revealed the secret of planting this kind of rice, so that only Zixi's rice Only then can it be so delicious.

In desperation, everyone can only continue to curry favor with the dominant Zixi, and she will provide rice instead of buying it for free and then sharing it. However, such profits are much larger than before for the rice store, and everyone can only Gladly accept the rice which is no longer free.

"What? All Crescent City in Liuxi Town ate rice? How is this possible? How did you do it?" The city lord of Muxiao City was very surprised when he heard the people who came to investigate in the wind. Rice is so scarce and the output is not high. , Crescent City can actually make the people of a city eat rice, this is really unbelievable.

"That's right, Lord City Master, it's true, it's true, they are eating rice every meal!" The person who came to report hurriedly said, this was what they saw with their own eyes, and he wanted to eat it too.

"What the hell is going on here?" The city lord of Muxiao City couldn't believe it. New Moon City alone could feed the whole city with rice?How can this be?

"The owner of the city is the owner of a rice shop named Ye Zixi. She also opened several fruit shops, rice shops, and medicine shops. The business is very prosperous..."

"Let's get to the point!" The city lord of Muxiao City stared at him, this guy didn't know he was in a hurry, so he was still so wordy.

The messenger pursed his lips, "Isn't that the point?"

"Don't tell me?" The city lord was annoyed, did this guy come to ask for a fight?
"I said, I said, that Ye Zixi can grow rice with a yield several times higher than that of ordinary rice. The grains are plump and white, all of which are high-quality rice, and they are sold at a low price, so that everyone can afford it!"

"She bought a lot of fields nearby to plant rice, and hired a lot of people. The refugees near Liuxi Town are all her workers, working for her, and they have money, food, and jobs. , how does it look like a place that has just experienced the plague?" The messenger curled his lips, he was told by his relatives in Liuxi Town that he wanted to settle in Liuxi Town!

Liuxi Town is better, hey...

"So powerful? Can one person supply the full food of the people?" The owner of Muxiao City was terrified. Is this still a human?How did you do it?
"That's right, it looks like this! My lord, if we can also eat rice like this, how great would it be?" The reporter licked his mouth.
