Mu Wanqing said calmly, "Qinzhou is considered a barren land in the eyes of the world. In fact, those are saline-alkali lands, which means that the salt content in the land exceeds the normal range, which makes it impossible to grow crops."
She has already asked someone to investigate and confirmed that it is a saline-alkali land.
Some lands have low content and some weeds can grow on them, while lands with high content are full of salt bags.
"I have an improved recipe. After the improvement, we can grow rice and raise fish and crabs. If it works, it will be an unprecedented achievement. No one will talk about your past anymore. They will just praise you highly."
First, wash the salt and remove the low-salinity salts, then plant some salt-tolerant plants and improve the fertilizer. Note (1)
Mu Jinyao's heart was burning with excitement. This was an unprecedented achievement. "Are you willing to share the credit with me?"
"I don't need this credit." Mu Wanqing said the ugly words first, "Besides, this credit is not easy to get. It is not something that can be achieved overnight. It is a long process and it is exhausting. Without firm belief and perseverance, nothing can be accomplished."
There is no such thing as casual success. Although she is very successful now, she has paid more than anyone else.
I work hard every day, trembling with fear and not daring to slack off for a moment.
Every policy order is carefully considered and studied over and over again, for fear that it may cause immeasurable consequences.
"So, you should seriously consider it."
If she had enthusiastically asked Mu Jinyao to go, Mu Jinyao would have thought more about it, but when she acted this way, Mu Jinyao was moved instead.
"If I go, what kind of help will you give?"
It won’t work without money and people. She is very realistic, but this is life.
Mu Wanqing hesitated for a moment, "A farm, 10,000 taels of silver, and ten experienced farmers."
Just treat it as an experimental field. This area concerns people's livelihood and is very important.
She is too busy, she can only pay attention to it, and we have to find someone to host this part.
Give Mu Jinyao a chance. If she succeeds, Mu Wanqing will not treat those who do practical things unfairly.
If she fails, she has nothing to lose.
Mu Jinyao was struggling internally. Should she really start a business with nothing? This road was not easy and very hard.
But she had no better way out.
Marry a high-ranking official? Once bitten, one will be afraid of ropes for ten years. What's more, there are not many people who dare to marry her.
Doing business? She had no experience and no capital.
She is not suitable for public display either.
After much thought, Mu Wanqing's suggestion is actually the best option.
"I want a female guard with strong martial arts skills, is that okay?"
She needed to ensure her own safety and also give Mu Wanqing the opportunity to plant spies.
Mu Wanqing took a look at her appearance and expressed her understanding, "Okay, send another male guard."
Mu Jinyao hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to ask, "If I grow rice, can I ask the court to pardon my family?"
After her family members were reported to be fugitives, they were all arrested and exiled to Qiongzhou. Their lives or deaths are now unknown.
Her father has become a disabled person, I'm afraid... he can't survive.
Although they did a lot of wrong things, they did not do anything wrong to her. As a daughter, there is nothing wrong with wanting to save her family.
"Sure." Mu Wanqing was very happy. At worst, she could let them all go farming and be self-reliant.
She never took the first wife seriously and didn't take her seriously at all.
Are you afraid of their revenge? You are overthinking. Just survive first.
Mu Jinyao took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll go."
Mu Wanqing arranged the personnel and Mu Jinyao set out for Qinzhou, bringing with him a thick guide to the saline-alkali land, which covered everything.
There is even a method for mixed farming of rice, shrimp and crabs, with very detailed information. With these, Mu Jinyao is full of confidence and ambition, and vows to make a career.
Miss Du was shocked. "You really took such a beautiful woman to farm? This is a waste of natural resources."
You can attract a lot of business just by relying on that face.
Mu Wanqing had no plans to keep Mu Jinyao by her side, nor did she want her to come into contact with members of the Mu family.
Everything else is fine, but the main thing is that the children of the eldest wife are in the stage of developing their world views, so we need to be on guard against them.
"She is a person who is unwilling to be mediocre. Rather than causing trouble for me in the future, it is better to find a way for her. Don't underestimate farming. There are top talents in every field. If she can grow high-yield crops and feed the people, what's wrong with praising her?"
Don't want to rely on your looks? Then rely on your talent. As for whether you have the ability, just wait and see.
Miss Du smiled slightly. Her ideas were always different from others, but always made sense. "You're right."
Prince Jin's Mansion
The Prince of Jin's face turned pale and blue, and his whole body was shaking, as if he had some serious illness.
"Say it again."
The tens of thousands of troops he had managed to build up were gone just like that? He couldn't accept it for the time being.
His trusted followers knelt on the ground, not daring to look up, "Your subordinates are incompetent."
He couldn't help but defend himself, "But no one would have thought that Du Shaoxuan would be in charge of Fufeng City instead of recuperating in Liangcheng."
Their information was wrong, so it can't be entirely blamed on him.
He was the chief commander of the Du family army, a new god of war who used military tactics like a genius and defeated Bei Chu and Xiwu in one fell swoop.
Who can beat him?
Besides, the so-called No. 8 Army actually only has 30,000 soldiers. What can they do if they encounter Du Shaoxuan?
If they knew in advance, who would go to attack Fufeng City?
The Prince of Jin felt very anxious. It seemed that something had happened to the spies in Xiliang and they had sent out false information.
Is God going to kill him?
No, it's impossible. He is the emperor destined by heaven. He was reborn. God gave him a second chance. He is the chosen one.
He looked at General Ye who was kneeling on the ground. General Ye in his previous life was his general, who was good at fighting and helped him accomplish his goals along the way.
In this life, he recruited people under his command in advance and made them work for him.
But this time he was disappointed.
"I'll fine you one year's salary. Do you accept this?"
This punishment is not painful. No one expects this salary. He raises it high and then puts it down easily. There is no other way. Who can help it? There is no one around him who is better at fighting than General Ye.
General Ye nodded repeatedly, "I accept. Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."
"Go down." The Prince of Jin just wanted to be alone.
General Ye stepped back, but before he reached the door, an attendant reported, "Sir, the delegation is back."
General Ye stopped suddenly. Is he back?
The Prince of Jin stood up and walked out in a hurry. General Ye hesitated for a moment and followed him.
"You all are finally back. I have been worried about you day and night..." The Prince of Jin stopped talking abruptly and looked at the group of people in surprise.
The members of the delegation looked very disheveled, their faces covered in dust, their complexions pale, and they looked as if their bodies had been hollowed out.
Everyone knelt down, "Sir, we have failed to live up to your high expectations."
The Prince of Jin was in a state of confusion, "What's going on?"
In fact, he knew that the delegation was in trouble after the defeat. Mu Wanqing was so petty that she would definitely take revenge.
I don’t know if it will be detained by Xiliang and used to blackmail him.
Should he accept it or not? This is a dilemma.
Now there is no need to make a choice, everyone has returned safely.
As the real leader of the delegation, Mr. Jin described the whole process in detail. Of course, some details were deleted and embellished.
On the way, everyone had discussed what to say and tried to make themselves appear as innocent as possible.
When he was moved, he burst into tears. "The Princess of Qingping County is a bandit. She would rob any good thing she saw. She is so unreasonable. There is no way to talk to her. Not only was 500,000 yuan of campaign funds robbed, but nothing valuable was left of us."
Prince of Jin: ...
He gritted his teeth secretly, suppressed his anger, and forced out a gentle smile, "It's good that you came back alive. I don't blame you. It's the Princess of Qingping who is too treacherous."
Let someone check the situation first, and if it doesn’t match, then settle the matter afterwards.
Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Did they pass this test?
General Ye did not see the familiar figure in the crowd, and could not help but ask in a cold voice, "Why don't you see Concubine Mu?"
The Prince of Jin then realized that one person was missing. Where was Mu Jinyao?
Lord Jin hesitated to speak, "She...she..."
"Speak." General Ye was very anxious.
Lord Jin was stunned. How could he be more anxious than the Prince of Jin? This was not right.
"Princess Qingping left her behind."
As for other words, I dare not say a single word.
What do you mean? The prince left her to Mu Wanqing to vent his anger? He still wanted to keep his head to eat.
The Prince of Jin was completely confused. What was Mu Wanqing up to? Taking hostages to threaten him?
The woman's vision is too narrow. Those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters. How could they ruin their great cause for the sake of love?
He didn't say anything. Seeing this, the members of the delegation believed Mu Wanqing's words even more.
There is no way he can escape from being heartless and ungrateful.
"What? Stay?" General Ye's reaction was much bigger. He was furious. "Mu Wanqing is so bold. She is so arrogant. I will lead my troops to attack Xucheng now."
He rushed outside, cursing. The Prince of Jin shouted, "Stop."
General Ye paused, turned around and saluted, "Your Highness, Mu Wanqing is slapping you in the face, and everyone in the Jin Palace. If we don't fight back, anyone can come and take a bite. Please grant me permission, Your Highness. I will definitely win this battle and bring honor to the Jin Palace..."
The Prince of Jin was also very angry. Mu Wanqing had ruined his plans and caused him trouble time and time again. He wished he could chop her into eighteen pieces.
However, he had to hold back and reminded him coldly, "Don't forget, Du Shaoxuan is in Fufeng City, and it's only a day's journey to Xucheng."
Zao Shaoxuan is here specifically to protect Xu Cheng. With him around, who dares to mess around?
General Ye refused to give up. "Then let's launch a surprise attack and capture Xucheng within a day. Once Mu Wanqing falls into our hands, we can threaten Du Shaoxuan. Then we can do whatever we want. It is said that these two have a close relationship."
Lord Li quickly stopped him, "Impossible, Mu Wanqing is so smart that she is almost a demon, you are no match for her."
He was still frightened. Mu Wanqing was too scary. She looked like a harmless girl who ate and drank all day long. She did so many things in secret and ruined them.
"You were actually frightened by a mere woman?" General Ye sneered without any hesitation, "Haha, I didn't expect you to be so useless and claim to be the strongest think tank."
This caused a huge uproar. The civil and military officials usually did not get along well with each other, and this time, the civil officials were completely offended.
They have already returned in failure and are afraid of being punished. How can they be forgiven by you blatantly slapping them in the face and trampling them into the mud?
Lord Jin's eyes flickered slightly, "May I ask, General Ye is so anxious, is it really just to fight back?"
General Ye's eyes flashed with discomfort, "Of course, I won't allow anyone to bully my master."
Lord Jin saw this and sneered, "Why do I feel like this is for Concubine Mu? What is your relationship?"
Everyone: ...Oh no, it seems like we know some great secret.
