Wen Wan pretended to be very angry and looked at Prince Zheng. Xia Yao said with a smile on her side, "Your Majesty, the Princess said that if it is used well, it will be more profitable than the fields. Your Majesty, the Princess wants you to rest assured that she will not do anything to lose money." "My lord, the princess asked you not to refuse." The princess said, "If you really want to settle a score with her, how can you settle such a score? The food and clothes she wears are all given by the emperor!" Dead. Not to mention having money to spend on these things. The princess said that she was raised by the emperor, and everything belongs to the emperor. If the prince refuses, the whole family will be angry. What¡¯s the point of fussing over things like this?¡±
Seeing her persistence, King Zheng smiled. Originally it was just for the two ministers to see. It seems that Wen Wan is at a disadvantage. Could it be that his father can really let Wen Wan suffer? Of course he can't. Just compensate her slowly in the future.
Early the next morning, Xia Yao picked up the things and went into the house. Wen Wan had just finished Tai Chi and was sweating: "Princess, the emperor sent someone to deliver the land deed."
Wen Wan got the land contract for fifty lands (the emperor added another twenty lands) and immediately called Xia Heng over. Xia Tian is in charge of the affairs of the princess's mansion, while Xia Heng is in charge of the affairs of Zhuangzi (Wenwan does not have a shop now, only Zhuangzi).
Wenwan had seen that piece of sand before, and at that time she really had the idea of ??buying them all. I just didn't expect that I would exchange the grain seeds on my farm for the sand.
Wen Wan entered the house and changed into an azure-colored muslin dress after taking a bath. There is only a wooden hairpin carved from golden nanmu on the simple bun. A small sachet containing spices hangs in front of the skirt. The spices contained in the sachets have the effect of repelling mosquitoes. So gentleness never leaves me.
Xia Yao saw that Wen Wan was wearing fine cloth clothes. There was no trace of a noble woman in this all-over outfit. There is no difference at all from the girl on Zhuangzi. Xia Yao helplessly called out: "Princess Princess."
Fine cloth clothes are only worn by ordinary people. A nobleman. Wearing fine linen clothes will cause ridicule. She didn't know how many times she tried to persuade her, but Wen Wan refused to listen. As long as she persuaded him, he would say with a smile that he was only in the village and not going out. Fine cloth absorbs sweat and is good for your body.
This time, Xia Yao finally saw Wen Wan's stubbornness. Ahem, no matter how much she said. I am not as stubborn as the princess wants me to be.
Wenwan asked someone to call Xia Heng over. She had a plan for landing on the sand.
"The land east of Hedong in the suburbs is sandy land. The princess plans to change it to grow watermelons. Watermelons can't be grown there. Dig a pond to plant lotus and lotus roots, and put fish in it. Plant all the free areas with various fruit trees. You Hire craftsmen who are proficient in these things, and if they are done, the harvest will be better than the best fields." Wen Wan has long wanted to find a piece of land to grow watermelons. I just haven't found the right place yet. I happened to take a fancy to that piece of sand not long ago and thought it was just right. In the future, if you want to eat fish, fruits, lotus roots, and lotus pods, you can have them at any time. These are all homegrown.
"Yes, my subordinates will do it immediately." Xia Heng looked at Wen Wan and had already made plans. As long as he implements it concretely, he will feel at ease.
Wenwan Zhuangzi had millions of catties of potato and sweet potato grain seeds, and the imperial court spent 50,000 taels of silver to purchase them all. The news spread throughout the capital overnight.
It¡¯s a big deal, and many people are sweating. If you do business with the imperial court, you will definitely lose money and lose your fortune. Just look at Princess Wenwan and you will know. The imperial court bought something worth two million taels for only fifty thousand taels. Although there is news that it is half donation and half free. but. Who believes it. If you want to donate, donate, if you want to sell, sell. It is definitely mandatory.
King Zhao almost jumped up when he heard the news. "What did you say? One acre can produce over a thousand kilograms. How is this possible? Are you sure the news is true."
The visitor said with certainty, "Your Majesty, the news is indeed worldly. It cannot be wrong."
King Zhao sat back in his seat. None of the staff said a word. They didn't know about such a big thing until now. To be precise, it means getting news. I thought it was a fantasy. No matter how much the emperor blocks the news, rumors will still spread. It's just that no one believes it.
King Zhao was shocked and angry. How could he not know if this matter spread? How much influence does it have on the court? This is definitely a great achievement. "Father, what are you doing? You have hidden such a big thing from me. Leave it all to Lao Ba."
King Zhao looked at Mr. Zhuang and asked, "Mr. Zhuang, what do you think?"
Mr. Zhuang shook his head, "I don't dare to comment on my own. Princess Wenwan is knowledgeable and has a unique vision. No matter what she does, she is successful and can do the best. The plague incident back then, the crop incident now. I guess, The reason why the emperor left the matter to Prince Zheng to handle it this time was probably because the court could not afford such a large sum of money. If the market price was to be used, the court would have to pay the princess more than two million taels of silver. Money." Mr. Zhuang said in his heart.I still admire Wen Wan. This is indeed a great thing that benefits the people. Even in a hostile position, Mr. Zhuang still admires Wen Wan. A person who can serve the imperial court regardless of personal gains and losses deserves respect.
King Zhao's eyes flashed, "Sir, do you think gentleness can be of use to me?" He remembered what his mother said, gentleness is of great use, and it seems that gentleness is indeed of great use.
Mr. Zhuang naturally knows what this means. If it works, win over it. If not used, eradicate it. We must not leave such a scourge to help Lao Ba. If Wen Wan lives well, the blow to King Zhao will indeed be fatal. Mr. Zhuang admonished and said, "Your Majesty, you can't touch the princess now. The princess has made such great contributions now. If you do it now, not only the emperor will be angry. Even the civil and military ministers will doubt the prince. Regardless of the outcome of this matter, It's all harmful to the prince." Just imagine, if Wen Wan dies unexpectedly, the first person to be suspicious of is not King Zhao.
Indeed, now that we are on the cusp of the storm, if we really touch that girl, the gain outweighs the loss.
In the capital, many people began to disbelieve the news. They eat sweet potatoes and potatoes in restaurants. They are so expensive, if the output is so high. I don¡¯t know how much I can grow from that pound. Later, it was confirmed that the news was true, and everyone wanted to get some for planting. You won't be able to make a profit by then. Unfortunately, these seeds are all kept by dedicated personnel.
Went to the store to buy it, but it was out of stock.
Su Xiang confirmed the news and said with a smile, "This girl did such a big thing, but she didn't say a word. This girl is really good at hiding things!"
Su Xian was very happy, "Dad, it seems like there is no quarrel between Wen Wan and Prince Zheng. Moreover, with this incident, Prince Zheng's reputation will be even higher. It is extremely beneficial to us."
Su Xiang smiled and nodded.
But the central figure in this matter, Princess Wenwan, has been hiding in Zhuangzi and has not appeared in front of people. (To be continued)
