Chapter 137 Accompanying
When it comes to how to manage these two properties, the nuns are very active.
The fields around Saga Bieye are easy to say. What was done when Chen Weng owned this place in the past? After the old King Zou took over, he made almost no changes. He just expanded the scope of the fields a lot and improved the water conservancy facilities. Before, in
When she lived in Bieye, Aunt Cui noticed that the property was running well, the management was very capable, the servants were honest, and the tenants below were very hardworking and capable. Now that the owner has changed, Xiao Gui and Cao are the only ones who need to follow him, not necessarily
Make major adjustments. Just consider that the original general manager of the villa is from Prince Zou's palace. If Li Shen has no special request, it is estimated that Li Lijun will have to choose someone else to replace him. Aunt Cui suggested that the property can be purchased temporarily from Chen's lifetime.
From other farms, send a capable person over to take over, and wait and see before talking.
The trouble is the small farm in Jingyang sent by Lin Guogong. They have never been to that place, and they don’t know what it is like. Looking at the deed, they roughly know how many fields there are, what crops are grown, as well as houses and ponds.
, mills, wharves and other ancillary buildings. But what are the tenants there like and what is the temperament and character of the stewards? They have no idea.
Mrs. Shao had some vague memories: "Look at the location of this village... When the old man was here, he came here once to escape the summer heat. It seemed that he had borrowed their dock and stayed in their village for a night. The old man once said that they
The Dukang wine sold by Zhuangzi was very good, and I took several jars with me when I left. I also sent people to buy more later. However, the old man was old and not in good health, so my wife did not allow him to drink so much wine anymore.
, "If you want to drink, you can only drink home-brewed fruit wine. The old lady has never bought wine from this village again." This was still a memory from her childhood. At that time, the Chen family had not yet married into the Sui Prince's palace, and she was just
The little girl who is responsible for ironing Mrs. Chen's clothes.
Mrs. Shao said this, and Grandma Cui and Lu also had some vague memories. Grandma Lu was a little unsure: "It seems that the owner of Zhuangzi at that time was named Liu, right? He was a rich man, and he married a pretty thin wife.
, the son he gave birth to was white and fat."
Li Lijun saw that they really couldn't remember much about this Zhuangzi, so she smiled and said: "Anyway, Jingyang is not far from Mount Saga. After we settle down, we can send someone to Zhuangzi to see what is going on and inquire about it by the way."
, how did this farm come into the hands of Duke Lin Guo. If we understand it, we can feel more at ease when we take care of the farm in the future." She looked at the description of the size of the field and the crops planted in the deed, "Planted
In addition to wheat, there is also rice, there are many vegetable fields, and there is even a pond with lotus flowers and fish. I think this is good. If the produce is good, we can keep some for ourselves, and the rest may be given away.
Either as a person or as a seller, it doesn't matter."
Zhao Chenji has a grocery business, and Chen Weng and the Chen family also had many farms in the past. The shopkeepers are all experienced in how to deal with the output. Aunt Lu immediately agreed and said that she could take people with her.
Go to Zhuangzi for a trip. Her husband was the head of the village during his lifetime. She has accumulated a lot of experience in managing Chen's farm, and she is very knowledgeable about this kind of thing.
Li Lijun gave general instructions on how to manage the two Zhuangzi, and how to implement it, the mothers could discuss it in detail. Li Lijun didn't want to take care of it too carefully, so she sent them away on the pretext of having lunch.
Lunch was very simple. It was just plain flour cakes brought from the Sui Palace and served with hot soup. The soup was also made before departure in the morning. It was heated in a small tea stove and served to the young master. Most of the people on the boat ate it.
It was still cold food. After all, we were sailing on the boat and no one dared to light a fire to make food on the boat.
After lunch, Li Lijun stayed alone in the cabin on the pretext of taking a rest. In fact, she was practicing several basic water spells with water vapor while people were walking on the river. Because in the previous mission world, she was a single-fire
Linggen's alchemy disciple is the most unfamiliar with water-based spells. Fortunately, during her stay in the Sui Palace, she used the small lake in the garden to practice, and now she can barely use it. In this life, she is a water-and-earth spirit.
Basically, water-based spells have a natural bonus effect. If you practice it a few times, you will gradually become proficient.
In the evening, the boatmen were still talking privately, saying that today's sailing seemed to be particularly smooth, especially in the afternoon, when the boat went faster and faster. Could this be the benefit of sailing smoothly?
When Erhong told Li Lijun this matter as an anecdote, Li Lijun just smiled and did not answer, hiding her merit and fame.
Before dark, the fleet arrived at Chenjiatan in Gaoling. This is the intersection of the Jingwei and Jinghe rivers. There is a relatively large pier, and there is a town inn not far away. Sima of the Sui Dynasty palace shouted to everyone at the pier.
After they landed, they ordered people to find a nearby restaurant, cook some vegetarian meals and bring them to the ship, and ordered breakfast for tomorrow. They didn't plan to go ashore for accommodation, so they just spent the night on the ship.
Get up early and continue on your way.
Li Shen came over to have dinner with Li Lijun, and then went back to his boat to rest. He was actually a little seasick and was not very adaptable to life on the boat. Li Lijun asked Grandma Cui to send some homemade anti-seasickness pills. Soon after,
Feedback from the servants of Prince Zou's Mansion came from the boat at the back, saying that Erlangjun felt much better.
Li Lijun sent someone to send a message to Li Shen, saying that there were many people around him to take care of him and that his health was fine, so he didn't have to worry. He was not feeling well, so it was better to rest more. If necessary, he could go ashore to find an inn to stay.
Next. Don't hold on, and run to Li Lijun from time to time to take care of her.
Li Shen had someone send a message saying that he had thanked his niece for her reminder and concern, but he was really fine and did not need to go ashore to stay in a hotel. Relying on the pills Li Lijun sent him, he managed to survive the night. He got up early the next day and felt in good spirits.
After a while, he still ran to Li Lijun to have breakfast with her.
Seeing Li Lijun running around at a young age, but still energetic and rosy, he couldn't help but sigh: "Although Li Niang is young, her health is really good! Less than a month ago, you suffered
You were injured, and you still looked sick. My mother-in-law was secretly worried that you wouldn't be able to hold on. I didn't expect how long it had been just now? You were still running around outside for many days, but you seemed to be fine. Uncle Shen
It’s really embarrassing in front of you!”
Li Lijun couldn't explain that she had just watched the beautiful sunrise on the river in the morning, practiced for a while, and it was natural that she was in good spirits. She could only say with a dry smile: "The wet nurse and the maids took good care of me. That's why I
"Uncle Shen, you don't have to worry about me. It's better to have a good rest and take care of yourself." She really felt that Li Shen didn't need to come over to accompany her from time to time. In this way, even if she wanted to do some small exercises in the cabin, she wouldn't have to.
Easy to use.
But Li Shen still insisted: "There are many snobbish people in the world, not to mention that many of the mourners are from your Sui Palace. When they see that your relatives only let you go to Mount Saga for burial, not even one
The elders have never accompanied you, and I am not sure why they underestimate you. What if they act arrogantly and bump into you? Even if they did not do anything about Sister Chen's funeral, they will make some slanders in the Sui Palace in the future and ask you to be there.
It is not impossible for Sagashan to be wronged. My dear Li Niang, you are a noble person, why should you be so angry? I will come to see you more, and at least let people know that you have the support of Prince Zou's Mansion behind you.
