Since she started learning to paint, apart from eating and sleeping, Qiao Zhizhi can only spare one hour a day for leisure and play, but she is happy to do it and do what she is interested in. After all, her mindset is different.
It is now the height of summer. In the Qingfeng Plain, the rice seedlings have long been transplanted. Three months later, they have already produced ears of grain. Each plant is plump and strong, with full ears that are heavy and tightly packed together, with almost no empty husks.
The use of fertilizers and pesticides, as well as routine maintenance, are all strictly carried out in accordance with Qiao Lian'er's requirements.
The villagers saw this and were delighted. If this momentum could be maintained, the yield per mu would be at least three times what it used to be, and that was a conservative estimate.
The mountains and fields surrounding the military camp are covered with medicinal herbs. They were already quite mature when they were planted, and now they are being harvested one after another.
It's time to sell medicinal herbs.
Qiao Lian'er's caravan drove into the fiefdom, carrying away cartloads of medicinal herbs.
Purple Ganoderma, Red Ganoderma, Dendrobium officinale, Ginseng, Saffron, Gastrodia elata, Polygonum multiflorum—it has everything.
Of course, transporting these medicinal herbs was just for show; it accounted for less than one percent of the amount Qiao Lian'er sold.
Because of the lesson learned from the durian incident, Qiao Lian'er first selected the best batch and sent it to the Imperial Hospital.
Furthermore, the Emperor now eats Wuchang rice, which she presents every day. In addition to Wuchang rice, she also presents various other types of rice, such as Yuzhenxiang rice, Simiao rice, and crab field rice.
As for those noble families, they all came to ask her about the Wuchang rice they ate at the palace banquet.
Qiao Lian'er only said that the land was being planted, and that the harvested rice would be sold to everyone later.
Her meaning was clear: it was impossible to sell seeds, because many wealthy families owned estates and hired people to grow crops and orchards as a way to generate income.
They not only want to eat this delicious rice, but also want to sell it.
Those from powerful families inevitably harbored resentment, feeling that her fierce protection was somewhat selfish, but they didn't want to openly confront her.
Because they wanted to continue eating durian and nuts, since Qiao Lian'er was a favorite of the emperor and would occasionally bestow upon him a chest full of jewels.
If Qiao Lian'er achieves another great feat, being granted the title of Princess will be just around the corner.
Forget it, if we don't want to make this money, then we don't have to.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that the Princess of Dingxiang County presented several large cartloads of top-quality medicinal herbs to the Imperial Hospital. These are all top-grade goods that are almost impossible to buy on the market, and she said they were for Your Majesty and the Empresses' benefit," Eunuch Qi reported to the Emperor.
"Lian'er is a good person, he remembers everything I do." The Emperor looked at the sky, his eyes welling up with tears.
He's even more considerate than all his princesses; how wonderful it would be if Lian'er were his daughter.
"Let's take another box of jewelry."
Not long after the medicines were delivered to the Imperial Hospital, the emperor's gifts arrived again. Qiao Lian'er gave Qiao Zhizhi a handful, and another handful to Lady Lü. Teacher Tan also received a jade bracelet with excellent luster.
Teacher Tan accepted it without hesitation. She wouldn't take the benefits for nothing; she would offer more painting tips in return.
As for the men, they didn't want any of the jewelry; at most, they would only accept a jade pendant or something similar, and they would ask Qiao Lian'er to put the rest away.
Another month passed, and the space butler, who had been silent for several months, spoke up: "Master, the object teleportation function has been activated and is also applicable to living beings."
