Five Hundred and Forty-Three: The World in Turbulence (13)

543: The situation in the world (thirteen)

Two or three months have passed since the spring plowing, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. The door of the Government Affairs Office is opened every day, but it still feels unbearably hot. (x-on:￥)

Jiang Pengji didn't have so many worries at all. She wore a simple and lightweight terry brown suit every day, with her sleeves rolled up to her shoulders and her trouser legs rolled up halfway to her thighs. The sight of her white arms and thighs made Wei Ci blush inexplicably, and attracted Yang Si's strange gaze.

"Do you have ulterior motives for your master?"

While Yang Si was writing with his right hand, he was fanning himself with his left hand.

Even so, he still felt that the clothes on his back were soaked with sweat, and there were big beads of sweat on his forehead.

Wei Ci's hand shook, and a discordant black line appeared on the originally neat and beautiful letter. He reluctantly put the scrapped letter away. He seemed calm, but in fact his fingers were trembling, "Jingrong, what are you talking about? Ci and The lords are all men..."

Yang Si curled his lips, King Changshou raised many boys and male pets, and this man did not hide it.

Having seen the dark side of aristocratic families, Yang Sike didn't think that they all believed in the "Yin and Yang Principle". Otherwise, how could masculinity prevail?

"What about men? Speaking of which, Zixiao is also twenty-two this year, right? There is no lovely wife or concubine in the backyard. If others don't say that you have something to hide, they will also think that you have a habit of cutting off your sleeves... How normal is this? ." Yang Si said with a smile. Watching Wei Ci change his face in the hot summer felt as refreshing as drinking a large bowl of ice water in the dog days of summer. "It's not a big deal if you are in love with your lord."

Wei Ci retorted, "Jingrong is twenty-nine, isn't she also alone?"

Yang Sidao said, "I have a high vision, which ordinary women can't look down upon. Matchmakers have crossed the threshold of my family before, but I don't want to."

Wei Ci choked and said, "Ci has no intention of getting married."

Seeing that he looked a little sad, Yang Si softened a little, fearing that he would touch Wei Ci's sadness.

"Still struggling with that broken horoscope?"

At this time, Jiang Pengji's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

As she walked, she said, "What are you talking about? You've already finished all the government affairs, why are you so happy chatting?"

Yang Si's mouth twitched,

Jiang Pengji went to Jiaoping County to catch young men a few days ago. How long has it been since she came back?

When Jiang Pengji entered the door, the two of them saw her holding two round green spherical objects.

Wei Ci was surprised when he saw what she was carrying, "Qingmen Luyu Fang?"

Yang Si and Jiang Pengji were both stunned, and the audience in the live broadcast room was also stunned.

Watermelon is a watermelon, so why are you talking so artfully?

Jiang Pengji simply didn't know that watermelon had such a name, while Yang Si had never seen a watermelon before.

Wei Ci was stunned for a moment before realizing that the watermelon, which many arty nobles called the "Green Gate Green Jade House", had not yet come from the Western Regions... He remembered hearing clearly that this thing was made after the founding of the Jiang Dynasty. In order to please His Majesty, the small vassal countries in the Western Regions specially presented it. It tasted good and was a good way to relieve the heat in the hot summer. It later became a treasure for the people to make a fortune.

Now...how did it appear?

"So it still has this name, but I call it watermelon. It's very easy to grow. You can consider growing some here in Cheng'an County to store water and relieve the heat in summer." Jiang Pengji placed two large watermelons on the table, took out a dagger and cut them One of them was cut in half.

It has been chilled in well water, and the pulp exudes cold air.

"Ci remember, this is unique to the Western Regions..." Wei Ci said.

Jiang Pengji cut the watermelon into pieces, and the bright red pulp made her mouth water.

"He is indeed from the Western Regions. Uncle Gu travels all over the country to do business and likes to buy some strange plants. He gave me some as a gift last year. I planted them in the small garden of Xiangyang County. I heard that they have grown. I ate one of the fruits and it tasted good.”

This was not the case. Jiang Pengji didn't know the plants of ancient times at all. It was the viewers of the live broadcast room who grew watermelons at home who told her about it. He also taught her how to grow watermelons and what to pay attention to. After she wrote down the tips, she gave them to the steward and asked her to take care of them.

She went to Jiaoping County to do business. When she heard Qi Guanrang say this, she hurried back to Xiangyang County and picked a few and brought them over.

Rare things are always expensive. Jiang Pengji wants Fengyi County to recover quickly, and business development cannot be weak.

However, this kind of fruit can only be eaten to satisfy cravings and cannot be used as food. Even if it is grown, the quantity and fields must be limited.

If the people see that they can make money by growing watermelons, and they all want to grow them, who will grow the food?

What to eat if there is no food?

Jiang Pengji thought about this and brought the watermelon on the plate to the two of them.

"Zixiao can't eat too much. This food is cold in nature. Eat one or two petals to satisfy your cravings." She warned.

[Yuanyuan Shrimp Crackers]: When I see watermelon, I want to eat it too. Pure natural watermelon, juicy and sweet, I really want to go downstairs and buy one.

[Star Boss]: I have already held half of the watermelon and dug it out with a spoon. It feels much better to eat it piece by piece.

The watermelons in the back garden of Xiangyang County were one and a half acres, so she had people pick them and send them to reward her subordinates.

Holding a watermelon and gnawing it in summer can even make your irritable mood a little better.

Yang Siting disliked Jiang Pengji, but had to admit that the food here was delicious, and even the summer fruits were unique.

"My lord, Ci has followed your instructions and ordered workers to dig canals, cut down enough bamboo, slice it into pieces and expose it to the sun."

"Well, how are the new bricks from the brick kiln doing?"

"It has been able to produce excellent results. Although it is not as solid as ordinary blue bricks, it will not break randomly."

The three of them were eating watermelons while talking about business. The scene was so beautiful that the audience in the live broadcast room said they were a little greedy.

[Big Brother Tu Mi]: Thank you, host. I think the melon farmers will smile this year.

Because of the mystery of the live broadcast room and the gimmick of cross-dimensionality, many emerging industries have been driven.

For example, watermelons appeared in the live broadcast room today. Maybe the watermelons in the nearby fruit store will be sold out!

The advertising effect is so scary!

The melon farmers are not smiling with their teeth showing but their mouths not showing?

Jiang Pengji said, "I am very relieved when you do things."

The bamboo strips are placed on both sides of the canal. The new bricks fired are used to pave the canal.

Since the end of spring, the weather has been getting hotter and hotter. There has not been a drop of rain so far. Jiang Pengji's premonition is about to be confirmed.

During this period, Jiang Pengji mobilized almost half of the manpower to dig canals, reservoirs and wells. Jiaoping County and Maolin County were also busy all day and night. Everyone was preparing for the coming summer. Although the construction of the county town slowed down, it did not stop. The barren county town that was ravaged by the Qingyi Army began to exude a thriving atmosphere.

As long as everyone is united and works together, almost nothing is impossible to accomplish.

In June, the weather is hot and the sun is strong. Wild cats and dogs dare not stay outside for long.

A major event that affects the entire situation of Dongqing happened. Without any warning, the second prince's wife An Yina died suddenly.
