As for transporting it to Beijing to sell it, forget it.

Watermelon, melon, idiot, or fool, by the time they get to Beijing, they've all turned into dried melons!

Xie Yuheng looked at Deputy General Liu and asked, "How about growing grapes and making dried fruits?"

The aunt next to her spoke stiffly.

"To be honest, sir, the grapes here are very sour and astringent, so they don't taste very good when made into dried fruits."

Xie Yuheng smiled soothingly, "That's fine. The Ministry of Revenue held a seed selection competition earlier, and there are many varieties with good taste."

"Yes, but they are still in the seed storage stage and have not been widely promoted."

"When I return to Beijing, I will ask the Ministry of Revenue for some personally and have someone send it to me."

"That's great, thank you, sir, thank you, sir!"

As she spoke, she knelt down in front of Xie Yuheng, and the people watching behind her did the same.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis, and thank you, General Liu!"

Xie Yuheng quickly stepped forward and helped her up. "Aunt, what are you doing? Please get up quickly."

"Besides, even if I don't go to the Ministry of Revenue to ask for it, Your Majesty will still promote it when there are more seeds in the future."

The aunt's eyes were filled with tears and her voice was choked with sobs. "That's true, but if we plant early, the family will have more money."

Another gust of wind blew, and it seemed like sand got into Xie Yuheng's eyes, making him feel uncomfortable.

In the Northwest, even ordinary farmers in later generations have a relatively low income.

Therefore, we still need to make our country strong!

When Daliang becomes strong, it will be easy to just give money to the poor people!

Seeing the expression on his master's face change from a little sad to determined in an instant.

Rong Shi and others: ???

Master, you must go to Yizhou to learn how to change faces!

Xie Yuheng stepped on the ground with the tip of his shoe and said, "Growing grapes and making dried fruits can supplement the family income, but grapes like water."

"While growing grapes, we also need to plant trees to prevent sand and reduce soil erosion."

"Otherwise, the younger generations may not even be able to grow grapes."

An uncle agreed, "Yes, my mother said that when she was a child, there wasn't so much dust everywhere."

Deputy General Liu was listening and nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, a soldier came on horseback and shouted when he saw Lieutenant General Liu: "General, there are many refugees outside the East City."

After hearing this, Lieutenant General Liu almost fell into the ground, but Xie Yuheng helped him up in time.

Could it be that Fusang invaded the Central Plains? Did the people flee westwards?

After he stood still, he asked hurriedly, "What refugees? Where did they come from?"

At this time, the soldiers had also come close. He wiped his sweat and said:

"Outside the East City, there are many people carrying pots and blankets. From a distance, we can see a large group of them. The boss asked me to talk to the general first."

Lieutenant General Liu took a deep breath.

It turned out that he had not yet confirmed whether he was a refugee or not, which almost scared him to death!

He gritted his teeth, suppressed his anger and asked, "Which team are you from?"

"Ah?" The soldier was puzzled, but still reported his leader's name.

......

When Xie Yuheng followed Lieutenant General Liu to East City, he saw a crowd of people outside the city gate.

There is war going on now and the only people are heading east to avoid the fighting. Who would come to Yumen at this time?

She was wearing a dazzling red dress. Before she dismounted from her horse, she heard someone excitedly shouting, "Master, Master!"

"Why are you here?"

Xie Yuheng walked to the city gate, his eyes passing through the dusty and dirty young faces.

Xie Tunan's eyes lit up in surprise. She raised her hand and said firmly, "It is everyone's responsibility to defend our country!"

However, after many years, Xie Yuheng seldom returned to Jiangling, and even when he did, he was always in a hurry.

She did not recognize that this was the little girl whom she had named herself when she was four years old.

"It is everyone's responsibility to defend our country!"

"It is everyone's responsibility to defend our country!"

The shouts of the younger generation echoed outside Yumen Pass.

Deputy General Liu, standing next to the captain of the city defense guard, stroked his beard and said with emotion: "There are talented people in every generation, and each generation is stronger than the last."

The captain nodded, "General, that makes sense."

Unexpectedly, Lieutenant General Liu suddenly laughed.

"You were the one who asked your men to tell me that there were refugees outside the city?"

The captain nodded again, "Yes, it's my humble position."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked by Lieutenant General Liu.

"What are refugees? Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand clearly. What if it causes unrest among the people in the city?!"

As it was already evening, the city would soon be closed for the night, and no one would be allowed to walk on the streets.

Xie Yuheng led them to book several inns in the city, which made the owners, whose business was in a slump, very happy.

"Come, come, come, sir, please come in, please come in."

"How about a cup of tea? It's free. It's a gift from the shop to you, sir!"

Xie Yuheng glanced at the shopkeeper who was talking and said with a smile: "Give me a pot of high-quality tea."

"As for silver and money, I am the Left Censor-in-Chief, so I cannot be short of it."

After she finished speaking, Mei Xingyun, who was following behind her, directly put an ingot of gold into the shopkeeper's palm.

"Just take it. If it's not enough, ask someone to look for me. I have money too."

When Xie Yuheng saw that hint of golden color, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

It's a miracle that this guy didn't get robbed all the way to Yumen...

Xu Yinqiu seemed to see what she was thinking, and said with a chuckle, "It's not like we haven't been targeted before, but luckily we reported it to the police in time."

"In the final analysis, it is still the court that selects officials reliably and does not collude with the thieves. Otherwise..."

Xu Yinqiu, looking at Mei Xingyun, clicked his tongue twice.

Mei Xingyun immediately jumped up and said, "Xu Yinqiu, what do you mean? Didn't we agree not to expose each other's shortcomings?"

Xu Yinqiu shrugged, "I don't have any flaws that can be exposed."

"It was the escort hired by someone who was just like him, not very smart, and took the wrong route, causing us to walk for more than a day in vain."

Mei Xingyun pointed at her angrily, "You, you are still exposing me... I am really pissed off. You are just relying on the fact that I never hit a woman!"

Listening to the quarrels between relatives and friends, I seemed to be back to the years before I went to Beijing for the imperial examination.

There is no intrigue, and you don’t have to constantly wonder what the other party is thinking or how to make your move.

Xie Yuheng's eyebrows curved slightly, and a genuine laugh escaped from the depths of his throat.

It was not a teasing smile, nor was it a polite smile.

That smile was clear and bright, like the bright full moon, making people unable to look away.

Xu Yinqiu was distracted without realizing it, and when he came to his senses, his heart skipped a beat.

She quickly withdrew her gaze, not daring to blaspheme the world-famous Marquis of Jiangling.

She knew that her status and that of Marquis Jiangling were so different that it was impossible.

Xie Yuheng took out a silver note from his purse and said, "Today is your first time in Yumen, so I will treat you to a meal to welcome you back."

She was about to hand it to the shopkeeper, but Mei Xingyun stopped her.

"No, we have students from the kitchen coming with us."

"The food in these restaurants is not good, why bother being the victim?"

"It's better to buy some vegetables and do it yourself."
