Chapter 702 Shepherd's Purse
On the other side of Zhenhai County, at the foot of Jinji Mountain, it has been nearly February, and the chill gradually faded. Looking around, the mountain is still vast, but there are already spots of green on the wilderness at the foot of the mountain.
The sound of horse hooves came from far away, and more than a hundred knights came towards the horse, all wearing soft armor, long swords, carrying bows and arrows and even firearms.
Qian Yuan, who was protected in the middle, looked at the county town on the other side of the Yongjiang River and breathed a sigh of relief. After half a month, he finally came back.
Since Lin Yan went north to Beijing for the exam, Qian Yuan threw the maritime affairs to Tang Shunzhi, and Sun Ying began to exercise his real responsibilities... The Censor of the Censorate inspected a province in Zhejiang.
Of course, this is a key point. First, the sea boat went to Jiaxing, inspected Huzhou and Jiaxing prefectures, and then went south, crossed Yanzhou prefecture to Hangzhou prefecture, and had a secret discussion with Tan Lun for several days before heading to Jinhua prefecture.
In Jinhua Prefecture, Qian Yuan bid farewell to Ding Bangyan under Qi Jiguang. Qi Jimei entered Fujian last year. In fact, except for two hundred soldiers under his command, they were all drawn from Yang Wen, Lu Bin, Hou Jigao and Zhang Yuanxun's troops. Ding Bangyan was actually the one who actually recruited troops in Yiwu. This time, he led the three thousand Yiwu soldiers trained into an army to move south into Fujian.
Later, Qian Yuan walked east along the waterway into Taizhou Prefecture, and joined the Zhejiang Governor Tan Lun to bid farewell to Ge Hao in Taiping County. The cabinet and the Ministry of War had issued official documents. Taizhou commander Ge Hao was promoted to the lieutenant general of Yan Jin's office, leading more than 100 warships and two thousand soldiers to go south to Fujian to attack the Japanese.
This is the first test of the breast tiger and the first eagle to fly. Qian Yuan expressed his high expectations for Ge Hao. Not only did he take out the new warship built with the gun, but he also snatched some people from Wang Zhi to help.
Afterwards, Tan Lun returned to Hangzhou and Qian Yuan went north to inspect Ninghai. After a month, Ninghai's trade became a sight. Although it was far less than Zhenhai, it was orderly and undisciplined. Song Yiwang and Zhao Dahe's ability were fine.
Of course, Ninghai Commercial Market is gradually taking shape. Although Qian Yuan had warned several months ago, he still cut three heads this time... Qian Yuan knew very well that Ninghai was the second trading port, and the transaction volume, tax and bank will directly affect the next third and fourth ones, and may also affect his future layout in the court.
After inspecting Ninghai, Qian Yuan went north to Ningbo Prefecture, inspecting Hou Jigao's troops stationed in Dinghai Housing, and finally returned to Zhenhai.
After this round, Qian Yuan inspected every point he paid attention to and every army he could influence.
Compared with what he saw from the south of Beijing three years ago, Zhejiang is now full of vitality, but in Qian Yuan's mind, this is the rising sun, this is the bud that has just emerged and needs care.
More than a hundred knights came from the east, with great momentum, gathered Wang Zhi's confidant. The family's family's drums had already sounded loudly in Zhaobao Village. Soon, dozens of riders came, Wang Zhi, Mao Haifeng, Xu Bixi, and Wang Yizhi were all among them.
"Duke Longquan, you're finally back. It's time to come back." Wang Zhi turned over and got off the horse and smiled.
Qian Yuan was stunned for a moment and it was time to come back...what does it mean?
"Why don't you go into the village to rest?"
Qian Yuan also got off the horse, rubbed his sore waist, and cursed with a smile: "Let's go back and see the big worm at home... Old ship owner, are you here to fight?"
Mao Haifeng smiled aside and his mouth was crooked. Last year, he sent the twin sisters of Japan to Qianzhai. Then... Then within three days, Qian Yuan's reputation spread throughout Ningbo.
"Are you back?" Qian Yuan looked at Mao Haifeng coldly, "How many have you got?"
After that incident, Qian Yuan forced Wang Zhi to send Mao Haifeng to Nanyang, and he spent many years on the boat.
"There are not many sweet potato vines, but the potatoes are loaded with most of the boat." Mao Haifeng coughed twice, "and sent it directly to Min County."
Wang Zhi added: "It has been handed over to Duke Yaoshan."
Qian Yuan nodded, Li Mo's memorial was left behind, which was within his expectations. In fact, in the past half month, sweet potatoes and potatoes have never stopped losing to Fujian. They were all imported from Wang Zhi's fleet, Tang Shunzhi, Mei Shoude, and Song Yiwang also gathered more than a hundred experienced old farmers last year. This matter was directly connected with Wu Baipeng.
After chatting for a while, Qian Yuan was about to cross the river when he suddenly saw the green and maomao on the ground. After looking closely, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
On the 80th birthday of my grandmother in her previous life, the whole family returned to her hometown. My mother took her to wander around the countryside. On a whim, she pulled a lot of wild vegetables in the wild, but she still disliked her... As a result, that night, the wild vegetables were added with pork and made dumplings, and she ate more than 40 of them... It smells so good!
Of course, not all wild vegetables can make dumplings. Qian Yuan only realized for many years that it was wild shepherd's purse.
I remember that my grandmother passed away during the summer vacation the next year, Qian Yuan sighed softly... Suddenly, he was shocked, as if his mother Tan was about to have her birthday, just in early February.
There was no tradition of birthdays in ancient times, but the birthday after the sixty years of age was highly valued. Qian Yuan swallowed. No wonder he said that he didn't know when he would go back that day, and his mother's face was not very good-looking.
In a hurry to cross the river, Qian Yuan pointed to the ground and pointed at Mao Haifeng again, "That day I will frame me, you will be the only one. Pull out two baskets of wild shepherd's purse, wash it and send it."
"Hey, hey..." Mao Haifeng looked at Qian Yuan on the boat speechlessly, turned to look at Wang Zhi, "Entertainment Father..."
"Who asked you to do that day and wait!" Wang Zhi glared, "I deserve it!"
Xu Bixi also cursed: "Xu is the granddaughter of Mr. Xu. He has not given birth to a child yet. Do you send two women to you...what do you want to do?"
Even Wang Yizhi added quietly: "Xu is as famous as Wang..."
"It's not stopping!" Wang Zhi thought of a slap on Mao Haifeng's head, "The Xu family is called Thousand-Handed Guanyin. How many lives have saved? For this matter, many people are scolding Qian Longquan!"
Turning around and leaving, Wang Zhi cursed: "Let him do it alone!"
Mao Haifeng, who had only one arm, was crying without tears. He quietly grabbed a person's sleeve, and two baskets of wild vegetables, and had to be washed clean, so he couldn't do it!
Qian Hong, who was pulled on her sleeve, had no expression on his face and was angry.
Qian Yuan carefully entered the house and unexpectedly found out that, okay, he was not here, but the birthday was already ready, and he didn't recognize the person in charge.
"The eldest sister-in-law inside is in charge, and the outside is in charge of the Shen family and Zhang family in Yin County." The younger sister explained on the side: "Fortunately, my second brother remembers that my mother's birthday has come back, otherwise... my father said he would teach you a good lesson."
"Of course I remember!" Qian Yuan patted his chest and said, "I visited Zhejiang all over and rushed back quickly. By the way, I even asked someone to pick wild shepherd's purse. I ate shepherd's purse dumplings at noon, and my second brother made them myself!"
"Okay, okay." The little girl was very happy, but then she calmed down and leaned closer and whispered: "Listen to someone...Listen to someone..."
"Listen to you..."
"Uh, I heard that... Zhenhai sent grain and rice to Fujian, and countless people were living." The younger sister stammered: "I heard that my mother's birthday, how many families in Fujian were going to visit me."
Qian Yuan turned his head and glanced at him, and his ears were red. Needless to say, it must be the Lin family in Min County.
"By the way, where is your second sister-in-law?" Qian Yuan suddenly asked: "She likes to eat shepherd's vegetarian the most."
dumpling……"
The little girl stomped her feet in anger and muttered a few words.
"Um?"
"I've gone to Yang Wen's side and I'm taking someone to test the medicine again." The little girl snorted, "Now the famous goddess doctor in the Qian family is no younger than your second brother."
Qian Yuan smacked his lips. Could it be that he could really produce penicillin?
It’s impossible. At most, it’s a chance. Qian Yuan looked around and went back to the backyard with his younger sister. It happened that the wild shepherd’s purse had been delivered.
