The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 173 The Princess Who Struggled to Protect Herself (27)

Yingfu's tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

The princess knew clearly that this was a path that would not lead to any good results, but she still embarked on it without hesitation.

In order to prevent the princess from seeing her tears, Yingfu took the initiative to run out to get the medicine.

When Yingfu came in again, he had already sorted out all his emotions.

The princess was already having a hard time, and she shouldn't distract her any further.

The medicine was so bitter that it made her tongue numb, but Shui Zhizi drank it all in one gulp.

For Water Gardenia now, taking medicine is the simplest thing.

The difficult thing is that Xin Zhuyin actually wants to break the contract. These water gardenias can also handle it.

But she didn't want to back down. A person like Xin Zhuyin would never show weakness in front of him. Xin Zhuyin was obviously a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

But since the relationship between the two of them has become like this from the beginning, it will still be a bit troublesome to do things in the future.

Shui Zhizi now only hopes that Xin Zhuyou can convey the message well.

Let Xin Zhuyin see that she was sincere in not interfering in the internal affairs of their Lai country, and also make Xin Zhuyin be afraid of her, the Princess Dongmeng.

Xin Zhuyou's ability to do things is naturally unquestionable, even though he was whipped twice by Xin Zhuyin.

But in the end, Xin Zhuyin had to put his little thoughts aside temporarily.

Xin Zhuyin seemed to be devoted to the political affairs of Lai State.

Xin Zhuyin sent people to investigate the issue of Lai State's military pay, and indeed dealt with several corrupt officials.

As soon as the army's situation improved, Xin Zhuyin assembled his troops to attack Beiying.

The news was told to Shui Zhizi by Xin Zhuyou on the orders of Xin Zhuyin when he came to return the remaining dowry after paying the military salaries.

Xin Zhuyin still issued an express order not to allow other members of the royal family to approach Shui Zhizi.

Xin Zhuyin himself was too embarrassed to meet Shui Zhizi, so he asked Xin Zhuyou to pass messages or send some things to Shui Zhizi on his behalf.

Of course, Xin Zhuyin himself couldn't remember to send anything to Shui Zhizi, and it was often Xin Zhuyou who reminded him of such things.

In Xin Zhuyin's eyes, Xin Zhuyou is the only person who can contact Shui Zhizi on his behalf.

First of all, Xin Zhuyou is smart enough and can always make good arrangements.

Secondly, Xin Zhuyou at least has the identity of a prince to the outside world, so that everyone can see how much he values ​​Princess Dongmeng.

The most important thing is that due to Xin Zhuyou’s background, he will never have the chance to be king in his life, and he is the only prince who cannot compete with him.

But Xin Zhuyin would never know that every time Xin Zhuyou received the news asking him to go to Shui Zhizi's house, he felt guilty yet secretly happy.

Even though he couldn't stay for even a quarter of an hour each time, and sometimes he couldn't even see Shui Zhizi.

Since arriving at the mansion, Shui Zhizi has been staying with several gentlemen who are studying farming, busy studying the soil they brought back along the way.

Or he was busy planting the seeds he brought from Dongmeng.

So Xin Zhuyou came three times before seeing Shui Zhizi in person once.

Of course, this time it was Shui Zhizi's guards who heard Xin Zhuyou say that there was something more important, so they brought Xin Zhuyou to where Shui Zhizi was busy.

When Xin Zhuyou followed the guards in, he discovered that the courtyard he had personally found had changed so much.

Several loess houses were even built on the vacant land, with sloping paper windows on the south side of the houses.

When Xin Zhuyou arrived, the sun was shining brightly, and the sunlight entered the house through the paper window.

Shui Zhizi and others were staying in such a room. When Xin Zhuyou entered, he found that there was something green in the room.

Looking more closely, I saw a stove and a kang in the house, and the temperature was not very low. No wonder there were green plants in this season.

It has only been a month, and Shui Zhizi and the others have made such rapid progress that Xin Zhuyou also had a smile on his face.

When the others saw Xin Zhuyou come in, they saluted tacitly and then continued to work on their own things.

The winter fruit thinning has made progress, and Shui Zhizi has a rare sincere smile on her face.

Shui Zhizi took the initiative to introduce Xin Zhuyou, "This is leek, an edible vegetable."

Xin Zhuyou was shocked. It wasn't just any plant? It was a vegetable.

There are still some vegetables and fruits in Laiguo in summer, but in winter, green vegetables and fruits are rarely seen.

The royal family could occasionally eat vegetables and fruits, but that was always in the summer, and they were stored in ice cellars early on, so they were not fresh.

But now there are fresh vegetables, even if there is only one kind, Xin Zhuyou is very happy.

If this thing can be popularized, the lives of the people in Lai State will be better.

Shui Zhizi saw through Xin Zhuyou's thoughts at a glance, and she poured cold water on him mercilessly.

“As you can see, you need a house like this to make these things. Not everyone can afford to build a house like this.

There are so many homeless people in Lai State. How can they have the money to build extra houses?

"But besides chives, we should be able to develop other things in the future. How about King You? Do you want to do business with me?"

Shui Zhizi has to earn back all the money she spent before.

Xin Zhuyou immediately asked: "How to do business?"

"I will teach you this technique, so you have to pay for it. And I can give you a way to make money."

Xin Zhuyou felt a little frustrated. Lai State was very short of money, but for the people, food was more important now.

Shui Zhizi saw what Xin Zhuyou was thinking.

“Growing vegetables in this environment is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Even if you want to sell them, do you think ordinary people can afford them?

If people were asked to grow crops themselves, how many people would be willing to spend so much money and effort when they couldn't even get enough staple food?

So why don’t we cooperate and make some money.”

Xin Zhuyou naturally knew that what Shui Zhizi said made sense.

"How to make money?" Xin Zhuyou did not hesitate. If he made money, he could still use it on the people.

“It’s very simple. Our people will give you the technology, and you can plant the crops with your own people.

After planting, I will sell it to the wealthy people in your country of Lai, preferably merchants who do business with other countries in the north, so that I can also make money from other countries."

Although vegetables are difficult to preserve, the winters in the north are extremely cold, and those merchants should be able to preserve them for a longer time if they think of ways.

It shouldn't be a problem to sell only to two countries close to Lai.

The light in Xin Zhuyou's eyes flickered again.

"If the merchants find it profitable, they will definitely hire the people to grow these vegetables, and the people will also benefit from it."

Shui Zhizi looked at Xin Zhuyou with a puzzled expression, but the people were always in his heart.

But this did not prevent Shui Zhizi from continuing to attack Xin Zhuyou.

“People have spent their time and energy on this matter, so who will grow the ordinary food?

After all, such vegetables are not enough to fill your stomach, and they can only be sold as a rarity in the northern winter."
