The emperor ordered the eunuch chief to send the village chief and Li Laoer out. Finally, he sighed with the veterans, "If the people of Tianwu are like this, why worry about the mountains and rivers not being able to recover, and why worry about Tianwu not prospering!"
"Your Majesty, feel relieved! , this day must not be far away." All the veterans stood up and saluted.
Let's not talk about what's going on in the palace, just talk about Broken Gold Beach. Just as the village chief feared, melon buyers have blocked the intersection of the river beach.
People who had made reservations before were still arriving one after another for fear of being overtaken.
People who didn't make reservations were also shouting, wanting to buy a few at a high price.
At this time, the village chief, Li Laoer and others rushed back in time.
Everyone went crazy when they heard that the emperor personally rewarded the archway of the Feng Shui treasure land and praised the melons at Broken Gold Beach as the sweetest.
"I will give you ten taels of silver each and sell me ten jade melons."
"I will give you one hundred taels of silver and give me five jade melons."
"Golden fruit, I want gold fruit, one tael of silver each."
Everyone in the village My heart was beating wildly and I was very excited, but I still stopped the buyers and asked them to listen to the village's decision.
Li Laoer took out the book and asked people to move two tables to separate the guests with reservations and those without reservations.
Because the garden has just opened, the jade melons and golden fruits are not ripe enough, so each guest who made a reservation can only pay half.
Fortunately, in order to avoid reselling, it was stipulated that a scheduled customer could only buy ten jade melons and fifty golden fruits, which solved today's dilemma.
After the reserved guests were sent away, they began to entertain individual guests.
Li Laoer did not raise the price because he was an individual customer, but he only sold two jade melons and ten golden fruits per person.
In this way, it is basically guaranteed that guests who come from afar will not return empty-handed.
But in the melon fields, all the jasper melons and golden fruits that were over eighty ripe had also been picked.
Jiayin was afraid that the villagers would pick the melons because they were inexperienced, which would be a pity, so she took a bamboo hat and ran around in the fields for most of the day.
Finally, we managed to get all the guests away, and the villagers were so tired that their voices became hoarse.
Jiayin was even more sad to discover that although she avoided getting tanned this time, her arms and calves turned into black knots...
That night, the old lady took a bath for her granddaughter, and she almost couldn't stand upright with laughter.
"I regret that I made you wear shorts and shorts!"
Jiayin pouted her little mouth, feeling very frustrated, but as soon as she left the ear room, she immediately became happy again.
Because the three brothers were also severely sunburned, their arms and legs were black and white, and they even had a black face.
The old lady couldn't help but laugh when she saw her granddaughter rolling around on the mat.
Xu Shi was all envious of the good sales of the jade melons from Jintan, and Dahuaishu and Xiaowangzhuang also started selling melons.
Some customers who were frustrated at Suijintan thought that since the villages were so close together, the melons they could grow would be about the same, so they bought some and went back, only to be extremely disappointed.
It's not that the melons grown in these three villages are unpalatable. They have the same green skin and red flesh, and are juicy when cut into pieces.
But when I taste it, the melons from the three villages are not as sweet as those from Suijintan, and they lack a lot of "melon flavor".
After the villagers in the three villages heard about it, they still didn't want to believe it, so they took their own melons and ran to Broken Gold Beach to compare them.
Finally, Sanli Zheng was convinced.
"It's obviously the same melon vines so close to each other, but the melons produced are not the same sweet."
The village chief uncle laughed, extremely proud, "We are a geomantic treasure land here, and the emperor even rewarded us with memorial arches, so of course we can grow them ." Everything is delicious."
Sanli was helpless, so he went back to discuss and lowered the price to only one-third of the original price.
In this way, although the sales were not very popular, they went smoothly.
Other people who grew jade melons everywhere, of course, had to compare them, and in the end they also lowered their prices.
For a time, everyone inside and outside Xindu knew that Broken Gold Beach was a geomantic treasure land, and the melons and fruits grown there were the most delicious in the world.
Amid the commotion, half a month later, most of the melon garden in Suijintan was empty.
The village chief and his people were guarding the remaining one acre of land day and night, eagerly awaiting the return of the Marquis and others.
The Li family is also busy with Zhang Luo Jiayin's birthday party. One of the big fat pigs in the pig pen must be killed. There is no shortage of vegetables at this time of year. Buying two more sheep will be enough.
When the women in the village had nothing to do, they ran forward and helped the Li family with chores. They set up awnings and temporary stoves in front of the door and in the yard.
Even the Ye family and Cui family next door were cleaned by them.
The day before her birthday, Mrs. Cui came over in a carriage early, and she also brought Liu Zhiheng's wife and two sons with her. She planned to spend a day in the valley and orchard, and then directly attend the birthday banquet tomorrow.
Because there were many people at home, the old lady said a few words to Mrs. Liu in Cui's yard, and asked someone to bring two jade melons over, and then went to work.
Mrs. Cui is left to help take care of Jiayin, the birthday girl, and she must also entertain Mrs. Liu, mother and son.
The two boys from the Liu family were both eleven or twelve years old, and they were a little reserved at first, but they were pulled by Jia An Jiaxi, and they went running wildly in the orchard, fishing in the river, and bathing in the hot springs before it got dark. I became familiar with it and went crazy with joy.
Mrs. Cui took Mrs. Liu and Jiayin to enjoy the flowers and soak in hot springs in the valley. When they returned home, Li Laosan's family, Jiaren and Brother Li also came back.
Jiayin was so happy that she took turns hugging her third uncle and his mother, and then asked her brothers to carry her on their backs. She was as happy as a puppy, running around wagging her tail.
In the past few days, the college has been busy bathing, and Jiaren and Brother Li have both come back from leave.
Li Laoer was worried, so he asked: "Asking for leave will delay homework. Will your husband be annoyed?"
Jiaren smiled and replied: "Don't worry, Dad, your husband happily gave me three days of leave, and also told me Bring him some golden fruits when you go back."
Everyone laughed when they heard this, "Fortunately, we have left an acre of land at home for the Marquis and your fourth uncle to eat when they come back, otherwise you would have gone back empty-handed. Be careful of Mr. wearing small shoes for you!"
"That's not the case. Mr. is very sensible, but he is just a bit greedy. And my classmates and friends, after hearing what I said, they are all clamoring for jade melons. There are also some in Brother Li's class. There are a few children who are playing well, and my husband takes good care of them. When we go back this time, my family may have to bring us a few more jade melons to make up for the difference."
Jiaren smiled while talking, his face was bright, and it was obvious that he was in the college. Reading is very comfortable, like a fish in water.
Brother Li held Brother Cat's hand and nodded with a smile.
Seeing this, the family members were relieved, so why did they feel sorry for those fruits.
Old Mrs. Li said: "When I tell the village chief, you can take as much jade melon as you want. You can be happy in the college! In another month, the fruits on the mountains will be sweet. I will give you more by then." ."
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, everyone was getting ready to have dinner.
At this time, hundreds of fast horses suddenly ran on the road on one side of the river beach.
