Chapter 706: Using Local Materials

After taking Xiao Ping's pulse, Xiao Yueyao frowned and said, "You fainted due to long-term labor and malnutrition. It's not a big problem. I'll prescribe two doses of medicine for you. You will feel better after taking them, but you must pay more attention to your diet."

"You have to eat enough, eat something nutritious, eat eggs, milk, and pasta. You can't go hungry and eat some unnutritious food."

"I know what the conditions are like here now. I will open a workshop here and hand it over to you to manage. With wages and bonuses, life will get better. You can eat full meals every day and don't have to save on food."

Xiao Yueyao knew that it was useless to just tell them to eat their fill.

There is not enough food, so even if they want to eat their fill, it’s useless.

So we must solve the problem of conditions here.

As long as we build workshops and repair roads, many things will no longer be a problem.

Including bonuses, each person gets at least one or two taels of silver every month.

If Xiao Ping were the manager, he would earn more money. If two or three people in the family worked together, they would earn two or three taels of silver a month. Prices here are low and things are very cheap. This money is enough for the whole family to have enough food.

It is enough to eat meat and pasta every meal.

After strolling around the town these past two days, Xiao Yueyao realized that not only were vegetables cheap here, but meat was also cheap.

So the cost of living in Nanye Town is very cheap.

Xiao Ping couldn't believe what Xiao Yueyao said.

Young master, do you want to open a workshop here?

Xiao Ping naturally knew what a workshop was.

She had stayed in the Xiao Mansion in the capital, so naturally she had seen a lot of things.

Naturally, I also know what a workshop is.

She also heard that there were wineries in the capital city here, and even if a workshop was small, it could make a lot of money.

I heard that people nearby make some money by brewing wine so they can have enough food to eat and wear warm clothes.

Xiao Ping was naturally excited when he heard this, but after a moment's thought, he said, "Young Master, you don't have to open a workshop here just for us. This place is really remote."

“Transportation is also inconvenient.”

Xiao Ping was really afraid of causing trouble for the young master.

Xiao Yueyao said: "Don't worry, the roads can be repaired, don't worry about anything else."

“I originally came here with the intention of opening a workshop here.”

These words are indeed true.

"But if you want to go back to the capital, I will arrange for you to go back and bring your family back with you."

Xiao Ping looked at the young master's serious expression and knew that the young master was serious.

She said, "Young Master, I have lived here for so many years and have become accustomed to the living environment here."

"Actually, compared to before, I feel it's simple and peaceful here, and I'm familiar with everything here, so I won't go back to the capital."

"Even if we return to the capital, Luo Wu and Chuan'er and He'er won't be used to it."

Xiao Ping felt that it was good to be here. If the young master opened a workshop, she could help him.

Besides, she felt at ease knowing that her masters were all alive and well.

Just be alive.

The capital is a vortex of power and also a place where rules are enforced.

Her son and daughter had never learned any etiquette since childhood, and she was afraid that they would not be able to adapt to the capital.

Besides, things in Beijing are very expensive.

It’s good to live a simple life here and have a happy family.

Xiao Yueyao nodded and said, "If you want to stay here, then stay here. This place will become prosperous as it develops."

"Once you have money, you can expand the house and add a few more rooms. Maybe it will become like an inn in the future."

Xiao Yueyao planned to open a chocolate workshop nearby so that she could pick cocoa beans directly on the spot and make chocolate with them because it was close to Hongluo Mountain behind her.

This makes it convenient to make chocolate using local materials.

When the time comes, we will transport cement over to build the road and a bridge across the river.

As long as you have money and cement, it is actually easy to build roads and bridges.

Moreover, along the way, she found that most of the land here was flat, but they were all dirt roads. They were bumpy after rain and could be repaired quickly with cement.

Xiao Yueyao had already planned all of this out in her mind.

There is no chocolate on the market in the entire Dayan Dynasty now.

And when she was in Hezhou, she gave chocolate to many people, and everyone said it was delicious and praised it highly.

Not to mention that in this era of scarcity of supplies and snacks, even in the age of technology, many people love to eat chocolate.

Therefore, Xiao Yueyao believed that once the chocolate workshop was built here and the chocolate market was opened, many merchants would come to buy it.

By then, there will not be enough accommodation in the town’s inn, so everyone will stay in the village.

Food and accommodation may be provided in the village.

Just like in Liuhe Village, many merchants from other places are now accustomed to living in the village for convenience.

Even if there are inns with nice rooms, people will stay at farmers' homes and pay for accommodation and food.

It also allows the villagers to earn some extra money.

If a chocolate workshop is built in Luojia Village, it is conceivable that it will also drive the economic development of the village.

She felt that there was a lot of vacant land in Luojia Village, and the villagers could actually develop farmhouses and provide food and accommodation.

Moreover, there are mountains and water here, and the scenery is quite good.

It’s just that people of this era don’t have the concept of traveling.

Many people go to Liuhe Village because they know that they can find many cheap treasures there and eat food that they can't find anywhere else.

Many foods cannot be taken out and can only be eaten locally.

Xiao Ping naturally understood that the young master said this for her own good.

She also kept the young master's words in mind.

Having lived in the capital before, she had seen the world and naturally understood what it meant to open a workshop.

Just thinking about it made Xiao Ping feel excited.

In this way, both sons and daughters can live a good life.

The house could use some repairs.

Just listening to these words, Xiao Ping's eyes became red.

"Thank you, young master. Thank you, young master."

Perhaps Xiao Ping didn't even know what to say except thank you.

Xiao Yueyao said: "You don't have to thank me, you should thank yourself for always insisting on living a good life."

If everyone in the Xiao family had such perseverance and resilience, perhaps many people would still be alive.

If I go back and tell Dad, he will definitely be happy.

After all, he is an old man in the Xiao family.

Naturally, you also need to take care of it.

If Xiao Yueyao had not come to Luojia Village in Nanye Town, she might never have discovered Xiao Ping's existence.

Luo He, standing beside him, said cautiously and in disbelief, "Master, um, is my mother really okay?"

Xiao Yueyao said, "Don't worry, it's okay. As long as you take the medicine and eat well, you will be fine in about two weeks, and you won't be dizzy easily in the future."

Luo He's eyes were red with excitement, and he wanted to say thank you with a choked sob, and even wanted to kneel down.

But she knew that the distinguished guest did not like her kneeling.

She could only firmly think in her heart that she must repay this kindness in the future.

Xiao Ping looked at Luo He and said, "This is my mother's young master. How can you be so disrespectful and say such things?"

This is suspicion of the young master.

Xiao Ping said to Luo He seriously.

Xiao Yueyao quickly stopped him and said, "It's okay. I think Luo He is a good girl with a filial heart and a kind heart."

"She's worried about you."

"On the way, I heard they gave you several prescriptions. Not only were the medicines expensive, but the doctor also said they were very serious. He said you were seriously ill, which was why you had headaches and dizziness, and that you needed to take expensive medicine. Don't listen to what that doctor says."

Perhaps because of this, Luo Chuan went to the Du family as a long-term worker to earn money, just to get medicine for Xiao Ping.

Both Luo Chuan and Luo He are very filial.

Just for this point, Xiao Yueyao nodded in her heart.

Xiao Yueyao felt relieved to let these two people help manage the workshop in the future.

What Xiao Yueyao values ​​most when hiring people is their moral character.

Even if he is an old man from the Xiao family, Xiao Yueyao will not use him if his moral character is not up to standard.

But it was also a coincidence that I saved Luo Chuan and met Luo He in the town. I also knew their character in advance and didn't need to test them.

But it is true that Xiao Ping is weak.

Years of malnutrition have caused her to become like this. She gets easily tired after doing some work and becomes dizzy if she is even slightly tired.

Xiao Yueyao said, "That doctor's skill is very average, perhaps not even average."

"It will heal naturally in two weeks."

"But you can't overwork yourself for now. Take this medicine first. It will give you some relief."

"I'll give you some more acupuncture. You'll feel better in the next few days."

As she spoke, Xiao Yueyao asked Xiao Ping to lie down on the bed and then gave her acupuncture.

Of course, Xiao Ping took the medicine that Xiao Yueyao handed to him without hesitation.

She believed everything the young master said, and no matter what the young master gave her, she would eat it without asking any questions.

Xiao Yueyao took out silver needles and gave Xiao Ping acupuncture.

During the acupuncture process, Xiao Yueyao used her wood-related abilities.

Fortunately, this place is full of natural atmosphere.

She has sufficient wood-related abilities, and can mobilize the natural powers around her to repair Xiao Ping's body.

But Xiao Ping's health was severely damaged, and he couldn't rely solely on his wood-based abilities.

It can only temporarily repair and relieve the symptoms, and she needs to take medicine and eat more.'

The most important thing is to eat and get enough nutrition every day.

After Xiao Ping lay down, he felt very comfortable after a while.

The headache symptoms gradually disappeared.

She couldn't help but relax, as if a warm current was flowing through her body.

Xiao Ping felt an incomparable sense of relaxation throughout his body.

Gradually she fell asleep.

Because Xiao Ping's physical condition was more serious, Xiao Yueyao gave her acupuncture for a longer time.

During acupuncture, the wood element's special power exerts its healing power.

Xiao Ping's brows relaxed.

About half an hour later, or an hour later, Xiao Yueyao took back the silver needle.

Luo He watched in shock from the side, not daring to disturb them.

But she could clearly feel that her mother's complexion was much better. It was no longer pale and bloodless, and it seemed that there was some color in her face.

She really felt it was magical.

This is what it feels like to be a miracle doctor.

She could take her brother's pulse and tell him all the conditions, and she could also stop the bleeding immediately.

In the past, people in the nearby villages and even in the county only trusted the doctors in the county.

Because there is only a clinic and a doctor in the county.
