Chapter 484: The cannon-fodder cousin of the hero of the imperial examination novel (6) (Fourth update, please vote for me!)

Xu Yinruo knew what her grandma was thinking at the moment, so she would definitely give her three words: She wants to eat shit.

She arrived at Zushan outside the city smoothly.

When we arrived at the foot of the mountain, the sun was setting in the west. We had to climb two mountains to reach Chashan. It would be too late to prepare dinner after we arrived. Xu Kui came to ask the girl for her opinion. It would be better to spend the night in Xujia Village at the foot of the mountain. Overnight stay with the parents.

Xu Yin had no objection and asked casually: "Is this village also called Xujiacun?"

"Yes, girl." Xu Kui said, "Some of the residents in this village have some ancestral ties to the Xu family, and some have received favors from the old man and are willing to help the Xu family guard the sacrificial fields and family mountains. The old man funded the repairs. They built an ancestral hall and opened a carriage road. They were grateful to the old man and named the village Xujiacun."

“That’s it.” Xu Yin said clearly.

The Xu of Xujiacun is the Xu of the old man.

Xu Kui came back not long after he left.

Coming with him was the village head of Xujia Village.

“I’ve seen the girl!”

The village chief is considered a member of the Xu family, but separated by several houses.

Previously, the original parents were buried. Apart from the old housekeeper and his son, he was the one who contributed the most.

It’s just that since the original person received the bad news, he has been immersed in the pain of the death of his parents, and has not noticed the sacrifices made by these people.

On the contrary, the Sun family in Fengcheng edited some letters for her, written by Sun Zhiqian, and comforted her in an emotional voice. She was moved to tears and felt that her aunt was a good person, so she moved her heart towards the Sun family.

Xu Yin let out a sigh in her heart and solemnly thanked the village chief: "On the day when my parents were laid to rest, it was thanks to the village chief and all my uncles who helped me. From now on, if you encounter any difficulties, please come to me and I will help you if I can." help."

The village chief smiled honestly and replied: "Girl, you are serious! When the master and madam were alive, they treated us well. Not to mention that the old lady was still kind to us. He just gave us a small amount of effort. Girl, don't take it to heart."

Xu Yin thought to herself: The village chief is a good person. If there is any work in the future, he can announce it through him.

It requires a lot of helpers to clean the Chai Shan and plant the spices.

With such thoughts in mind, Xu Yin simply informed the village chief in advance on the way to stay at the village chief’s house.

“What the girl means is that you want to grow your own spices? Can we grow these spices here?” The village chief was surprised.

He knew that the Xu family had always been in the spice business, but it was said that the spices sold by the Xu family were shipped from far away, and some of them were said to have been floating on the sea for several months.

Now that I listen to the girl’s wishes, I can still plant my own seeds. Is it true? Then why didn’t the previous heads of the Xu family grow their own crops?

Xu Yin heard the suspicion in his tone and smiled lightly: "I rarely dealt with the family business before, but I was somewhat interested in spice cultivation. When my parents were still alive, I mentioned it to them and they agreed to wait until Xiangcheng came back. , I came to Chashan to stay with me for a while and planned a spice planting area, but I didn’t expect..."

Hearing this, the village chief sighed: "There are unpredictable things happening in the sky!"

In this case, he should fully support the girl's proposal.

"Don't worry, girl, if you need us to do anything, just give us your instructions. Our village doesn't have much land, and our main task is to guard the sacrificial fields and clan mountains. It's been a busy farming period recently, and everyone has nothing to do. If you need help, girl, just ask. "

"I really need manpower." Xu Yin was not polite to the village chief. "I want to clear out the firewood mountain near the tea mountain to grow spices. You can help me hire some people. The wages are comparable to day laborers in the city."

Seeing the village chief wave his hand to refuse, Xu Yin continued: "Listen to me, I will need to hire people all the time in the future, and it won't just be busy for one or two days. I can't thank you enough for your willingness to help me. The wages must be paid, otherwise I will ask Xu Kui to go to the city to hire day laborers."

Xu Yin can use this move in every small world, making her an invincible player.

Xu Yin added: "It's up to you to decide how many people to hire and which people to hire. My request is to clean up Chaishan, but it's best if everyone concentrates and cleans up piece by piece. Clear out one piece first, and then I can Let’s start trial planting and avoid delaying sowing time.” The village head responded repeatedly.

Stayed overnight at the village chief's house and had no words for the night.

The next day, Xu Kui fostered the horses at the village chief's house and prepared to call people to find the spare soft sedan in the village to carry the girl over the mountain.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yin waved her hand: "No need to use a sedan. I'll change into a pair of light shoes and walk by myself."

Thinking back to the time when she was escaping from famine, it was easy for her to push a cart for ten days and a half. How could it be difficult for her to live on only two mountains?

Not to mention she also has [Xiaoyao insoles], so her feet won’t get stung no matter how far she walks.

Mainly, she wanted to take a look at the mountains here to see what spices were suitable for growing.

Xu Yin’s plan in mind was to plant a circle of woody spices, such as sandalwood, osmanthus, and cloves, along the foot of the mountain. The mountain was divided into several areas to plant rosemary, lavender, rose, and other long-lasting fragrances in later generations. Jasmine, bergamot, vetiver, etc.

She has some flower seeds. Let’s see if she can plant them successfully.

Leaving a boutique cultivation area on the top of the mountain, she intends to try a few fragrance and unknown flowers in the self -cultivation small world hundred gardens.

As for the agarwood and musk that were indispensable in the ancient spice market, in addition to sending people to various places to purchase them, her system warehouse has a lot of them, most of which come from Taoyuan Star.

Thinking about it now, Taoyuan Star is really a good place to make a fortune - the fertile soil, the countless medicinal materials in the insect forest, the seafood that no one cares about...

Including agarwood and musk, they are also obtained in Taoyuan Star.

With this calculation, it would not be very difficult for her to take over the Xu family's spice industry. At least she wouldn't have to worry too much about the supply of goods.

She has all the important spices.

At worst, she will provide the suppliers and sellers herself.

Pour the spices from the left pocket into the right pocket, and then pour the money out from the right pocket?

Hmm, wouldn’t it be bad if this were the case? It turned her into a treacherous person.

“Girl? Girl?”

“Eh?” Xu Yin came back to her senses.

Zi Yuan called her softly: "Girl, are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?"

There is a stone pavilion halfway up the mountain. Like the mountain path paved with bluestone steps, it was built by the old man at that time. The fruit trees on the mountain were also planted by the old man by the people of Xujia Village.

Xu Yin sat down in the stone pavilion to rest.

Through the pavilion’s commanding view, you can overlook the fruit trees planted below.

“Are they all peach trees?”

"The other half is planted with pears." The village chief who accompanied him explained, "The old man said that peach and pear flowers are the most beautiful when they are in full bloom, so he asked us to plant these two kinds of fruit trees. The girl should have tasted the peaches and pears produced here. .”

They send them to the Xu Mansion every year, and they always pick the biggest ones and the best ones.

The rest will be distributed to each family according to the old man's instructions, and the rest will be sold in the market. The money earned from the sale will be used to repair the ancestral hall and expand the school.

Xu Yin heard a lot about the old man’s deeds and felt that he was the one who really understood life.
