Chapter 31: Are there any Taoists who make elixirs?
Zhao Shen was silent for a moment before he said, "Just find her something to do."
Although Ji Yunshu often said that she liked him, it seemed that she didn't really mean it when she said it too much.
So until now, he still hasn't figured out whether the other party really loved him and married him, or whether she chose him because of the situation and in order not to marry Zhao Heng.
Before figuring out these things, he didn't want to rashly become her husband and wife.
What's more, they have more important things to do.
Ji Yunshu was very open-minded. Zhao Shen was hiding something from her, but she was also hiding something from him. She thought this was fair.
So I slept carefree until the afternoon.
When she woke up, the sun was about to set and the weather was not so hot anymore.
While helping her put her hair back on, Lu Ru said helplessly, "Why did you sleep for so long in the broad daylight? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the people in the village?"
Ji Yunshu stretched lazily and said, "There's no one else here at the manor, so who cares how long I sleep?"
She combed the fallen strand of hair herself and said, "Just tuck it up casually. No need to bother. It will be dark soon anyway."
When it gets dark, it's time to go to bed again.
If it weren't for the worry about the tragic death of his entire family, Ji Yunshu would be living a life like a god.
Lu Ru also discovered that her master was very contradictory.
He is really diligent when he is working hard. Whether it is studying or practicing martial arts, he is much more diligent than before.
It had only been a few days since her marriage, but she had already sorted out her dowry and even checked the account books of the farms and shops.
The housekeepers appointed by the Empress Dowager were all sighing with emotion. They had not expected their master to be so powerful that she had no place to use her skills.
But when I get lazy, I am really lazy. My favorite thing to do every day is to sit in a recliner and stare blankly.
I don’t know what he is thinking.
When Ji Yunshu had finished combing her hair, Zhao Shen came over.
He smiled and said, "I thought it was time for you to get up."
Ji Yunshu glanced at him and said, "You're quite thoughtful. Could it be that you're sending someone to keep an eye on me?"
Don't think she didn't notice that the guards on this farm are just as strong as those on Qionghua Courtyard.
Zhao Shen really values his life.
Zhao Shen smiled and said, "I was worried you wouldn't be able to adjust to your new situation, so I asked someone to keep an eye on you. Who knew you could sleep for so long? Are you hungry? The people downstairs brought over some seasonal produce. I asked them to cook it and send it over shortly."
Ji Yunshu was indeed hungry. She glanced at the yard and saw that the walls were covered with climbing plants and flowers.
There is a small pavilion in the yard with a stone table in it.
There is no sun now, it looks quite cool.
She smiled and said, "This place is great. I have no problem adapting to it."
Zhao Shen saw that she was not angry about his living elsewhere, and didn't even take it to heart. He couldn't tell what he felt for a moment.
At one point, someone came outside to serve the meal. Ji Yunshu felt the room was stuffy, so he simply had the meal served under the eaves.
There was a breeze blowing, which was quite cool.
Today's dishes are also very refreshing.
A plate of green vegetables, a plate of cold seasonal vegetables, and a lotus root and pork ribs soup.
They didn't bring a cook with them, so the cook on the farm cooked the meals.
The cooking skills are very good, and the pork rib soup is light but delicious, not greasy at all.
Ji Yunshu drank two bowls of soup in one breath.
When they were almost done eating, Zhao Shen said, "I have some things to do these days, so I may not be able to spend more time with you. The farm has everything you need for food and drink. There are many books in the study, and there is a large martial arts field in the back. You can read or practice martial arts if you want."
Ji Yunshu heard his serious tone and did not ask him what was the matter.
Since he didn't say it, it must be inconvenient to say it.
Their relationship was close, but Ji Yunshu was self-aware and knew that they had not yet reached the level of close confiding.
So he nodded and said: "I understand. You go about your business and don't worry about me. I just happened to be strolling around Zhuangzi."
In a few years, there may be various natural and man-made disasters, and the people will be hungry, naked, and displaced. When they can no longer survive, they will rise up in rebellion.
Several countries to the north and west will also take the opportunity to invade.
There is no way. Natural disasters do not discriminate against places. Daxia is not having a good time, and other countries are not having a good time either. Everyone can only rob and fight.
In the end, things became a mess, and then the hero and heroine appeared out of nowhere to save the world and the people.
Ji Yunshu felt that she could do the work of the male and female protagonists.
Compared to the male and female protagonists who rely on luck and the halo of the protagonist, she has thousands of years more experience.
She couldn't help but wonder, if she could replace the roles of the male and female protagonists in the book, would it be easier to change her fate?
Of course, ideals are beautiful, but reality... we have to take it step by step.
If you want to keep the people safe, you must first ensure they have enough to eat.
She knew too little about this era and didn't even know what the main crops here were, so she didn't dare to act rashly.
Now I can take advantage of the opportunity on the farm to do something good.
Zhao Shen's farm is very large, and there are hundreds of acres of fertile land outside.
Although she is a loser who can't tell the difference between grains, she can at least try to find some agricultural talents to research some high-yield, cold-resistant and flood-resistant crop varieties.
She remembered that Yao Ruolan seemed to have saved a talented farmer, who later developed high-yield crops.
But what is this person's name?
She regretted very much why she only focused on the male and female protagonists when reading the book. Now it seems that these background characters are more important.
After finishing his meal, Ji Yunshu sat under the eaves in a daze.
By the way, I was thinking about how to steal the male and female protagonists' girls.
Zhao Shen saw that she didn't know what she was thinking, sometimes smiling, sometimes frowning, and couldn't help asking, "Is there something troubling you?"
Seeing that Zhao Shen hadn't left, Ji Yunshu happily turned around and asked, "Do you know a Taoist priest who... well, can make pills?"
Agriculture must develop, and military force must also develop.
Iron and steel smelting is a long development process, so let’s develop gunpowder first.
It can be a life-saving trump card at critical moments.
If there is really no other way, I will die together with the enemy.
It is said that this thing was originally created by Taoist priests who made elixirs.
These were the first chemists.
Oh, by the way, maybe we can develop chemical fertilizers, and then we can increase grain production.
What else?
Ji Yunshu felt that she now had money, power and time.
You can do whatever you want.
Zhao Shen looked at her strangely for a long while before he said earnestly, "If you feel unwell, you should see a doctor. Don't take pills carelessly."
Ji Yunshu glared at him and said, "I'm not feeling unwell, and I don't want to take pills. It would be helpful to find a Taoist who can make pills. Just tell me if you have any."
Zhao Shen thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what use a Taoist who makes elixirs could be. Could it be that he wanted to follow him and practice Taoism?
Under the eaves, the dim light of the lantern shone on Ji Yunshu's face. The little girl looked at him eagerly with bright eyes.
He doesn't look like he has seen through the world at all.
He was relieved. "There's a Taiqing Temple on Yuquan Mountain, about a dozen miles outside of Zhuangzi. Taoist Master Yichen there is famous for his alchemy skills. If you're interested, you can go and visit him."
Ji Yunshu nodded: "Then I'll go tomorrow, do you want to come with me?"
