Chapter 195

Hu Shang sat in the warm hall, looking around curiously.

It was the first time they had the fortune to enter such a place, and the energetic little girl from the past became the ruler of the Dusifu.

Can't believe it.

The room is equipped with earth dragons, warm like spring, the furniture of pear and wood is neatly arranged, the coffee table is full of various foods, the dishes are exquisitely arranged, and the colors and fragrances are complete.

There are soft cakes, fragrant breads, lotus cakes, yam cakes and other Chinese desserts.

Hu Shang couldn't help but taste it. He has to say that the dim sum in Dusifu is delicious.

The sound of footsteps sounded outside, and Hu Shang quickly put the dim sum back on the plate and wiped the corner of his mouth.

"I have seen the Qingping County Lord."

"Sit down." Mu Wanqing sat down directly in the main seat, with such a powerful aura that Hu Shang couldn't help but get nervous.

She seemed to have seen their nervousness, and greeted the two of them with a gentle attitude.

Hu Shang saw her smiling Yan Yan, kind and generous, not so tense, and gradually relaxed.

Mu Wanqing took a sip of tea, and then she said, "I wonder what good things you brought?"

At that time, she asked them to search for more novel things, and they brought everything to her.

Hu Shang brought four big bags and wrote the numbers on the bags.

He took a bag numbered 1 and pulled out several boxes. Inside were cloth bags, which were well preserved.

"You said you wanted seeds of fruits and vegetables. We didn't know what seeds these were, so we bought some."

Okay, Mu Wanqing couldn't recognize it after looking at it for a long time, so let's just take it as opening the blind box, and what it is.

The second bag is a pile of books in foreign languages. Hu Shang smiled attentively, "You said that you want foreign travel notes and books on science and technology, and I have collected a lot."

Mu Wanqing casually flipped through books on astronomy, physics, mathematics, chemistry, and geography.

Most of them are related to mathematics, such as "The Elements of Geometry", "Tongwen Computational Index", "Daquan", and "Eight-Line Table of Cutting a Circle", which are textbooks in European schools.

In fact, she looked at her most blankly, "Can you understand?"

Mu Wanqing put the book in her hand aside, "I don't understand, but some people do. I like these books very much. Thank you for your hard work."

Hu Shang didn't dare to ask too much, "It's fine if you like it."

Hu Shang opened the remaining two bags, and there were small bags inside, "These are the grain seeds collected from all over the place, and each place is different."

Every time they go to a place, they will subconsciously buy a few.

He deliberately took out a small bag and untied the tether, revealing the golden seeds one by one.

"This one is pearl rice, glutinous and sweet, and delicious."

Mu Wanqing's eyes lit up, what pearl rice? Isn't this corn?

Corn likes light and cannot tolerate shade, so it is suitable for planting in Xiliang. Most importantly, the yield is extremely high!

In modern times, what does it mean to be able to produce thousands of kilograms per mu? More people can get enough to eat.

I just don't know if the yield per mu can be more productive now, but even if it is folded in half, it is still very good.

Corn can be used as a staple food, can also be ground into flour to make snacks, produce corn starch, dried noodles, etc., and can also be processed into alcohol.

By the way, corn stalks can be made into silage, fed to war horses, and can also develop animal husbandry.

All of a sudden, a lot of information flashed through her mind.

"I have accepted all these things." Mu Wanqing waved her hand, and her entourage took out a stack of silver notes and handed it to the two of them.

She has always been generous, but this is not what Hu Shang asked for, "County Lord, we don't want money, we want to exchange some instant noodles, is that possible?"

"Instant noodles?" Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows, a little surprised, they were well informed.

Instant noodles are always a hot seller.

Also, some prisons also use instant noodles as hard currency, which shows its popularity.

"Can."

Hu Shang was overjoyed, and cautiously asked, "We want to buy a lot."

Mu Wanqing pondered for a while, "Exchange this pearl rice."

Hu Shang was stunned for a moment, does she like it so much? "Uh, this is very far away, and it won't be transported here for a while."

"It doesn't matter, I will send a caravan with you, and let them be responsible for transporting them back." Mu Wanqing had already thought about it, and formed a caravan to go out.

Let Hu Shang take the area first, familiarize yourself with the route, and then go out on your own.

Since ancient times, international trade has been the most profitable.

In exchange for silk, tea, china, gold and silver jewelry, horses, medicines, and spices.

She hopes that they can bring back advanced technology and civilization outside.

It would be even better if could get sweet potatoes and peppers.

Hu Shang looked at each other and exchanged a wink, "Alright."

"Then it's settled." Mu Wanqing was very happy.

Seeing that she was in a good mood, Hu Shang boldly asked, "County Lord, we also want some wool and cotton cloth."

They went to the Mu's business for a walk, and there were a lot of good things, but unfortunately, all of them were limited.

"Wool thread is fine, cotton cloth is not." Mu Wanqing gave the answer directly, "We don't have enough use for ourselves. We need to discuss this with the manager of Mu's firm."

Even so, Hu Shang was very satisfied, and he didn't make a trip in vain.

As soon as Hu Shang left, Mu Wanqing picked up the corn seeds and turned them over to see that there was another staple food next year, which was great.

Mu Zicheng stepped in and said, "sister, what's this good thing?"

He came back with Hu Shang, and when he entered the city, he first went to Shuimu Farm to report safety.

"Big brother, you're back." Mu Wanqing looked at Mu Zicheng, who had been darkened in a circle. She was in good spirits, and she had washed up and was clean. "Have you gone home? Have you seen your mother and sister-in-law?"

"I went to see my father first." Mu Zicheng sat down opposite her and picked up a snack to eat, "I went to the snack street to meet my mother."

Of course, he also went to see his wife, and the reunion of the husband and wife was naturally lingering.

"My sister is thin, haven't you eaten well?"

Mu Wanqing ate a lot, three meals plus afternoon tea, and supper, but her mental work was quickly exhausted.

"I've been a little busy recently." She picked up the corn seeds and handed them to him. "This is a life-saving treasure. The yield is extremely high, and it can feed more people."

Mu Zicheng was stunned for a moment, his eyes were straight, and he was very excited, "sister, do you even know this?"

"Is there anything I don't know about?" Mu Wanqing looked arrogant.

Mu Zicheng can't help laughing, her sister is still so cute. "What's the matter with the second brother? I look a little wrong."

"He didn't tell you?"

Mu Zicheng's eyes sparkled, "let's talk."

"Let him speak for himself." Mu Wanqing has no interest in exposing other people's privacy, even her second brother, "Come and give me advice, who will bring this caravan?"

After listening to her sister's plan, mu Zicheng was amazed. Her brain was so good, it was indeed a good move to form a caravan to go to various countries in the Western Regions.

"It stands to reason that Uncle Six is ​​a suitable candidate. He has the courage, the courage to act, the courage, and the carefulness. However, he suffered a sprained foot some time ago and can't go far."

Mu Wanqing thought for a while, "No hurry, take a look again, or find a Du family army to escort me."

The war is over, let's start making money.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, and Sun Tongzhi rushed over with a letter, "County Lord, the soldiers will be back the day after tomorrow, how to arrange it?"

According to convention, when the army comes back after winning the battle, it is necessary to arrange for officials to greet it.

If he goes back to Beijing, it is possible for the prince to welcome him in person.

"Arrange the streets to clear the field and organize officials to maintain law and order." Mu Wanqing pondered for a while, "Send an announcement to inform the people in the city that the Du family's army is coming back."

As soon as the news came out, the people were so excited that they went out early in the morning to greet their children and soldiers, and there was laughter everywhere.

Under the leadership of Mu Wanqing, the Dusifu all dispatched to the gate of the city ahead of schedule.

The wind was cold and the snow was fluttering, but everyone's heart was extremely hot.

A large tent was set up at the gate of the city, with only the top cover and ventilation from all sides.

The officials were all standing in the tents, still feeling cold.

Mu Wanqing wore a bright red fox fur coat, wrapped herself into a ball, and put on a hat and scarf, only showing her nose.

She also held a small hand stove in her hand to keep warm, and jumped a few times from time to time. It was really cold today.

She glanced at the restaurant not far away with admiration. Her parents and the two young ladies of the Du family had reserved a box, and they were sitting comfortably in the warm box drinking tea and eating snacks.

So, why does she have to suffer?

She really wanted to drink a bowl of warm glutinous rice dumplings. It was so sweet that her whole body felt warm after drinking it.

A carriage came from a distance, and the sharp-eyed official recognized it, "Hey, the carriage of the Du residence? Could it be that Du Shuai came in person?"

He just guessed casually, how could Du Shuai, who has been behind closed doors recovering from his injuries, go out in such a cold ghost weather?

The carriage slowly stopped, the curtain was lifted, and a man in a black fur coat walked down, with a majestic face, it was Du Shuai.

Mu Wanqing shoved the stove into the hand of her entourage and walked out first, and the others followed.

Mu Wanqing bowed, "I have seen Du Shuai, Du Shuai is well."

Du Shuai gave a false help, "The county magistrate is very polite."

Mu Wanqing glanced at Du Shuai and was startled, why is she so thin? I'm half thinner than before.

Has his injury been healed yet? Still not good?

"Why did you come out on such a cold day? Come in and talk."

She also quietly asked people to prepare a few braziers, which were placed near Du Shuai's chair.

But don't catch the cold.

This year, a cold will kill you.

Even if Du Shuai was ill and injured, he was still the Optimus Prime of Xiliang, and he could not make any mistakes.

So far, she has not encountered any major resistance in her tenure.

She wants him to live well more than anyone else.

With such a leader who doesn't care about everything, she really saved a lot of heart.

She was sending people a stove and preparing hot ginger tea.

Seeing her busy, Du Shuai comforted her, "Don't be busy, just sit down, no matter what, I will always come to pick up the Du Jiajun's return."

Mu Wanqing smiled slightly, "Congratulations to the head coach of the Du Family Army, who has won again, continuing the myth of victory in a hundred battles."

Du Shuai looked at the smiling girl in front of him. Every time he saw her, she changed a bit, and this time she was even more imposing.

"The county owner has worked hard. You have made great achievements, and you should be the first."

Who would have thought that it was such a young woman who did everything to prepare food and grass for the army, appease the hearts of the people, and lead the army and the people to unite to take Fufeng City and clear all obstacles.

She should take most of the credit for this victory.

Mu Wanqing's efforts were recognized, of course she was very happy, and she smiled sweetly and said a few words of modesty.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, "Come on, Du Jiajun is here."
