Fresh vegetables taste good by nature. The varieties grown on Grandpa Cen’s farm have all been slowly improved and selected by him over the years, so they naturally taste even better.

In addition, the weather was good this year and the crops grew well.

Finally, after the skillful cooking of the imperial kitchen and the emperor's psychological effect, he felt that today's meal was surprisingly delicious.

After the meal, the emperor praised every dish highly.

After lunch, not only did everyone in the imperial kitchen receive rewards, but Old Cen was not left out either. Even Qingtian, who brought these things into the palace, was rewarded by the emperor.

When Prince Rui and his family of three were preparing to leave, the Queen asked people to prepare many rewards.

Seeing this, Prince Rui repeatedly declined.

After all, it’s not a festival, so why should I collect so many things?

However, the emperor was very pleased with the queen's action. He waved his hand and said, "Seventh Brother, this is what your sister-in-law gave to your wife and Qingtian. Don't interfere."

After hearing what the emperor said, the queen became even more delighted.

Not only did I not feel any pain at giving away so many things, but I even wanted to give away more.

The palace maids who were listening nearby also felt that the relationship between the emperor and the empress had become increasingly harmonious recently, and the news quickly spread to every corner of the palace through them.

For a time, no matter how favored a concubine was, it was only a short-lived novelty, and the recognition that the queen's position as the main wife was unshakable was once again deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone in the palace.

Of course, the Queen’s instigation was also indispensable.

After all, although the queen's legitimate son has been named the crown prince, the emperor is still in his prime. There are too many variables, and the queen dare not take it too lightly.

This opportunity is just right to consolidate her position as the queen.

As the autumn harvest situation in various places was reported one by one, Prince Rui asked people to compile the data for the capital area first.

Sure enough, no one can compete with the Ye family's per-acre yield.

The second place's yield per mu is only 2.5 dan, and there might be some false reporting!

"Everyone, work harder and quickly calculate the per-acre yields north of the Yangtze River to see how the situation is!"

It is a foregone conclusion that Ye Lao Er is the grain king of the Gyeonggi region.

What Prince Rui wants to know most now is whether Ye Lao Er can get the grain of the entire north.

It certainly can't be compared with the south, but the entire north is still very promising.

If he could really win the title of Northern Grain King, it would definitely be more important to Ye Lao Er than just being the Grain King of the capital region, and he would definitely receive more benefits in the future.

However, considering the distance of the journey and the speed of grain production statistics in various places, Prince Rui could only send people to urge them, and he still had to wait patiently.

Just as Prince Rui was anxiously waiting for news from all over the place, Boss Ye and Boss Cheng and their group finally entered Shanhaiguan.

According to the original plan, Boss Ye intended to return to the capital before the twelfth lunar month.

However, the serious illness he suffered after falling into the water made it difficult for his body to continue staying in such a cold mountain.

Secondly, he and Boss Cheng were both concerned about the suspected gold mine discovered in Jiapiqiao, so they didn't want to delay any longer and turned back.

However, the two did not seem to be in a hurry on the way back. Outside Shanhaiguan, they would stop from time to time to collect some mountain products in the villages and towns along the way.

But once they passed Shanhaiguan, there was no need to delay too much on this front. Everyone focused on their journey and soon returned to the capital.

Boss Ye first followed everyone to unload all the mountain products harvested along the way into Boss Cheng's martial arts school warehouse.

Boss Ye watched everyone unloading the goods in the yard, while Boss Cheng was responsible for counting the goods and registering them at the warehouse door.

It took me two hours to finish this little bit of work.

Boss Ye had been anxious to go home to see his wife and daughter.

After all the goods were unloaded, he prepared to find Boss Cheng and say goodbye to go home.

Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Boss Cheng.

"Brother Ye, wait a moment." After Boss Cheng finished speaking, he asked someone to bring seals and sealed all the windows tightly. Finally, he locked the door with two locks and handed one of the keys to Boss Ye.

Boss Ye was speechless and said, "Brother Cheng, what is there between us brothers that we can't trust each other? Is it really necessary to be like this?"

"Even brothers should settle accounts!" Boss Cheng forcibly stuffed the key into Boss Ye's hand. "Besides, I'm not the only one here. There are so many other people coming in and out. It's safer this way."

Boss Ye thought about it and realized that this was true, so he took the key and said, "Okay, I'll leave first."

"Wait a minute, there's this too, don't forget to take it!" Boss Cheng said, picking up the small wooden box at his feet and handing it to Boss Ye.

"What?" Boss Ye opened the wooden box and saw several dried Ganoderma lucidum inside.

"Brother Cheng, what do you mean?" Boss Ye was stunned.

"You picked these flowers yourself. I've got them all memorized!" Boss Cheng said. "After drying them along the way, I packed them up separately for you. Aren't you going to make medicine for your child?"

Boss Ye quickly refused upon hearing this, "That won't do. We agreed that no matter what we get, we'll put it all together and split the profits 50-50!"

"Listen to me!" Boss Cheng's attitude was also very tough. "For the other things, we will still split the bill 50-50 as agreed. If you want other Ganoderma lucidum, then the money will be deducted from your account.

“But you picked these yourself, you’re not selling them for money, you’re using them to make medicine for your child.
