Chapter 198 Fighting for Incense
Xu Xinshu smiled gently and shook her head.
"Don't you care about the people in the border areas?"
"Although the food can be transported, it will inevitably be much more expensive."
"Texas is close to Pingzhou, so the weather is not much different."
"For research on agriculture, we can consider the precedent of Pingzhou."
“If we change the route, we will have to pick it up again when we go to Texas in the future.”
"I still want to make a concerted effort so that more people in Dai Viet can fill their stomachs."
This reason was very strong and Bei Jingchu was convinced.
"That's right."
Bei Jingchu remembered something.
"Xu Shaoqing, I got some seeds on the way here."
Bei Jingchu reached out and asked Changyan for her small purse.
Pretend to take seeds out of your purse.
"This is cotton. Now we are using kapok. This cotton is much better than kapok. If Xu Shaoqing could bring people to grow it, fewer people would freeze to death."
"This is a piece of sweet potato. Just cut a piece and bury it in the soil and it will grow."
"If it were in the Jianghuai area, a yield of 6,000 kilograms per mu would be acceptable."
Xu Xinshu immediately changed the way she held the sweet potato to holding it in her cups.
"Oh, and potatoes, the yield per mu is not that high, only 2,000 kilograms."
Xu Xinshu: ...You call this only?
Bei Jingchu picked out the important things that could be exchanged.
I feel a little regretful. I should have brought a bigger purse. I can’t use this small purse anymore, otherwise it’s obviously not enough to hold everything.
Yan Chao on the side watched her take out the seeds, and a hint of doubt appeared on his expressionless face.
When did you get it?
She had been staring at the princess, how come she didn't see it?
Could it be that all of them were obtained when Yan Zhong was guarding it?
After Bei Jingchu took out the seeds, she thought of another person.
She asked, "Xu Shaoqing, since you are going to Texas, can you help me find someone while you are there?"
"Your Highness, please speak."
"I heard that when I was young, I had a mother who was banished from the palace because she got sick."
“Her hometown is in Texas.”
"Since Xu Shaoqing is going to Texas, could you help me find out if she is doing well?"
"I only heard that her name was Ah Yu."
"If she's having a hard time, help her if you can."
"I will reimburse you for all expenses after returning to Beijing."
Xu Xinshu responded: "It's simple."
"If that Yu Mama knew that His Highness missed her, she would definitely feel honored."
After walking for a long time, the students were tired.
Although it took some time to hone my will at Botang.
But they used horse-drawn carriages for long distances within the city.
No matter how much he is tempered, he can't change his nature as a rich boy.
Each of these young men looked like a scholar whose energy had been sucked dry by a goblin.
Guo Yang couldn't help but turn around to look at the little princess who was so young that she shouldn't be allowed to enter Botang.
She is so young, just a child.
Even these teenagers are tired, so a little girl like her definitely can't do it...
"Cousin, hold on for a moment."
The little princess and Lei Nian'er over there were holding Bei Hua, who was about to step down, with one hand each. They looked full of energy and much more energetic than them.
She was still shouting, "Chao Chao, come and carry my cousin. She can't walk."
Yan Chao refused: "Your Highness, I have to put your safety first. I can't resist the threat to you as quickly as possible if I carry someone on my back."
"oh."
Make the call immobile.
"Cousin, how about I carry you on my back?"
Bei Hua forced herself to regain her composure and waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, this is against the rules. My cousin is a princess."
Bei Jingchu stamped her feet: "But you are so tired, and the princess can't ask you to walk faster."
"Do you want the guard to carry you?"
"It's not impossible, but try not to do it."
It's frustrating to say that boys and girls are not allowed to sit at the same table after they turn seven, and Bei Hua is exactly seven years old.
Seeing this situation, Lei Nian'er took the initiative to say, "Let me carry Huanhuan."
Bei Jingchu looked at her with a suspicious look: "You are so small, can you do it?"
Lei Nian'er:......
This time she didn't bear it. It shouldn't matter if she was disrespectful once in a while: "Your Highness, no matter how small I am, I am not as small as you."
Bei Jingchu: “Oh.”
[Sorry, I forgot I’m a child again~]
After solving the problem of Bei Huan being unable to walk, Bei Jingchu realized that many people were looking at her.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Guo Yang asked suspiciously, "Your Highness, aren't you tired?"
Huh? Bei Jingchu didn't understand.
"Why are you tired? We have only just started."
"Aren't you tired?"
They all shook their heads.
Bei Jingchu felt that she had become smart again.
"I told you, you can't be noobs, keep going~"
Students: It’s so scary!
The teachers were laughing in front.
As a teacher, of course you understand your students.
Master You shouted, "Hold on, there is a Buddhist temple ahead, you can take a rest."
The Buddhist temple is not very big and is far inferior to the magnificent and sacred temples in the capital.
However, the incense is not deserted. On the contrary, there is a constant flow of people coming to burn incense and fulfill their vows.
The extremely tired students were finally able to sit down and rest. The simple vegetarian meal served in the temple became the most delicious food in the world at this time.
However, the silence did not last long, as there was a commotion outside.
"Smash all the Buddha statues here!"
"How dare a foreign Buddha compete with our Taoist temple for incense money?"
The monks and some believers in the temple went to stop them.
When Bei Jingchu went out to take a look, an old believer who was interpreting the divination sticks came over unsteadily, leaning on a bamboo pole.
"Master, please tell me the truth."
"The temple is effective, so people are willing to come and burn incense."
"You are so disrespectful to Buddha, aren't you afraid of being punished by God?"
Bei Jingchu nodded quietly: [Wow, I've never seen such a reckless person. He really has no sense of awe at all.]
Although the leader was wearing a Taoist robe, he did not have the slightest intention of being a conscientious person.
Looking at his sallow face and weak kidneys, he looked like a fake Taoist who indulged in alcohol and sex.
He waved away the old lady who was walking past. If someone hadn't supported her, the old lady would have fallen to the ground.
For an old man of this age, a fall could be fatal.
After he finished waving his whisk, he pointed at the old man and said, "You old fool, stop interfering with me, or I'll beat you to death."
"My aunt's niece's husband's brother is the steward of the First-Rank Cavalry General's Mansion in the capital."
"Which cavalry general?"
"Do you know Jiang Zhixian?"
"That's the chief eunuch who serves the emperor."
"Huh, you're shocked."
Bei Jingchu was stunned. He turned around and asked Bei Qin who had come up behind her: "Eunuch Jiang, or the general?"
"The title of General of the Cavalry is an honorary one. After all, Eunuch Jiang is the emperor's personal attendant, so he should be treated with more honor and favor."
