Gu Duzhong is good at internal medicine and also has extensive research on health preservation.

The next day, Meixiang and Doctor Wang brought people to accompany him to visit the vicinity of Liu Mansion and the back mountain, and introduced the local situation of Liu Mansion, future plans and so on.

"Miss Xiang'er," Doctor Gu Du insisted on using honorifics for Meixiang, Chu Zeming and others. Since he couldn't persuade her, he didn't dwell on it any more and just let him do it.

"Well, if you have any questions please feel free to ask sir."

"I think your idea is good, but it is very difficult to implement under the current conditions. If it fails, will it affect the enthusiasm of the villagers?" Doctor Lonely said with concern.

Meixiang understood his thoughts and knew that the elder was speaking from the heart. But now she had no other choice but to lead everyone forward, right?

"I know what you are worried about, sir, but if we don't do this, is there any other way out for this well-known poor and remote area of ​​Liuzhou Prefecture?" Meixiang sighed and continued, "No, so we have to bite the bullet and fight our way out, even if it's a bloody road, we have to keep going. What if it works?"

Looking at the self-deprecating girl in front of him, Doctor Lonely sighed inwardly. Meixiang's mature and sophisticated style of doing things always makes people forget her actual age. She is just a child who has just turned ten. "Well, Miss Xiang'er, I will do my best."

"Sir, you are so righteous. I would like to thank you again on behalf of the people of Liuzhou Prefecture!" Meixiang said and then solemnly performed a standard salute to Gu Duzhong.

Gu Duzhong quickly turned sideways, and Doctor Wang, who had been standing beside him, quickly held him down and half-saluted.

"You, you..." Doctor Lonely's eyes turned red with anxiety.

"Hahaha, now that you've accepted the gift, you'll use your special skills as an old man." Doctor Wang looked at Gu Duzhong, who was about to jump up and down in anxiety, and laughed triumphantly.

Meixiang smiled secretly when she saw the two people playing around. More and more people were joining the team to build Liuzhou Prefecture. As long as everyone worked together and put their efforts into one place, they would definitely achieve something. That was great!

The lonely doctor got into the role quickly and that evening asked Meixiang when she would be free to take him to Luojia Village.

"There's no rush, sir. You've been traveling for several days. Take a few days' rest first and take it easy." Meixiang said with a smile, holding the tea bowl. Since the person has been kept, there is no rush for other things. After all, he is sixty years old and health is the most important thing.

"I'm fine. I'm in good health."

"That won't work either. You have to listen to me. How about this, let's wait for two days. It's a good time for Brother Chu Shi and the others to sort out their current tasks." Seeing Meixiang say this, Doctor Gu Du accepted Meixiang's kindness, and the matter was settled.

On the fourth day after the imperial edict arrived in Liuzhou Prefecture, when rumors spread that the wife of the lord of Suzhou City sent people to Liuzhou Prefecture to set fire to the mountain and was bitten by wild beasts in the mountains and was rescued by the people of Liuzhou Prefecture, a ransom of 200,000 taels of silver was also delivered to the government office.

It is said that this was the money that the city lord's wife's family scraped together overnight and sold some of their property at a low price. When the Suzhou city lord, who was suddenly dismissed from office and became a commoner, learned the truth, he was so angry that he demanded to divorce his wife, let alone help.

The city lord Wang, who was waiting for resettlement in the capital, was also feeling mixed emotions. He had never expected such a good thing to happen to him. He was happy that Suzhou Prefecture was twice as large as Liu Prefecture, and his official rank was also upgraded. This was a real promotion with real power. He had been grinning since he received the imperial edict.

Sadly, Suzhou Prefecture is located on the border, far from the capital, and its economy is also underdeveloped. This location is generally considered a popular place. City Lord Wang asked people everywhere to secretly inquire about what was going on. How could such a good thing fall into the hands of someone like him who did not have a deep foundation?

When the news of the "good deeds" done by the former lady of Suzhou Prefecture gradually spread, and some people who were good at scheming came up to him, he actually found out some of the tricks. There are people who take advantage of the situation everywhere, right?

Once again, I thank myself for being timid and conscientious in the past ten years in Liuzhou Prefecture. Apart from the joke caused by my own confusion at the end, I didn't make any big mistakes. I was also polite to the Liu Mansion in Liujia Village, which led to this good result.

This official transfer made those slick foxes in the officialdom shut their mouths and retract their temporarily extended claws. Although the current emperor has not yet given birth to a prince, it is not something that anyone can do as he pleases. Didn't you see that Wang Huang and the other three great families behind him did not stand up and say anything? Is it wise to rush to stand in line so early?

In recent days, many ancestors who have been enjoying their retirement and no longer care about worldly affairs have been dug out and held several family meetings in the study.

Some of the people who were preparing to send people to Liuzhou Prefecture to test the waters also temporarily stopped and waited and watched. This also gave Meixiang and the others a chance to catch their breath, without having to take away time and energy to deal with those claws.

At the same time, those old foxes in the capital also breathed a sigh of relief. Their goal was finally achieved. They were really afraid that someone would go to Liuzhou Prefecture without any sense of sight again. If they really pissed off those kids, they would really quit their business.

"I really hope they can live in peace for a while." In the imperial study, Wang Huang said to his son sitting opposite him. Although this was only a temporary solution and could not solve the fundamental problem, "How far have Xiang Yatou and the others come now?"

"From what I have seen, many things have already begun, including cloth, grain, medicinal herbs, and tea. Oh, and they seem to have discovered two new ingredients, and have begun to test-plant them."

"Better than potatoes?" Meixiang sent someone to deliver potato seeds to the capital. After trial planting by the Ministry of Revenue, the harvest shocked everyone. Trial planting has begun in villages around the capital.

"The details are not clear yet. This time the trial planting work was directly handed over to Xiaoliu Village. According to the express report we just received yesterday, Doctor Wang invited Gu Duzhong to Liujia Village, and it is said that other people are on the way." The emperor repeated the news he had received. There were people sent by him to Liuzhou Prefecture. On the one hand, they were to secretly protect everyone in the Liu Mansion, and on the other hand, they were to deliver some important news at any time to let him know the latest situation of his wife and children.

Wang Huang nodded after listening to this. The discovery of potatoes alone was enough to be recorded in the history of Haoyue, not to mention the other actions that would follow. He had a premonition that Meixiang would lead Haoyue into another glorious era.

Alas, it’s a pity that it’s a girl. It would have been great if she was a prince!
