"You see, this book says that Shu is mostly covered with mountains and dangerous peaks, but you don't know that Sichuan and Chongqing have complex terrain and great differences in altitude. There are plains, mountains, and plateaus. The book only writes about mountains, but it's not true. Besides, Shu is more famous for its salt, in addition to Shu embroidery."

Jiang Manman listened with great interest. She knew that the salt nowadays was basically boiled from seawater. But there was no seawater in Shu, right?

He asked, "Master Fu, there is no sea in Shu, where does the salt come from?"

Seeing that the little girl was very interested, he became interested and explained, as if he had seen his own daughter when she was a child and pestered him about his business.

"In addition to sea salt, there are also well salt and rock salt. There are a lot of them. The salt produced in Shu is well salt. It is white, delicate and of very good quality. People in Shu like spicy food, people in the south like sweet food, and we people in the north have a strong taste and like salty food."

Jiang Manman became even more interested, and the two chatted like close friends.

Mr. Fu was surprised that such a young girl had such a wide range of interests and could talk to you about everything, whether it was business or literature.

It's a pity that I don't have a son. If I had a son, I would definitely ask him to bring someone home to be my daughter-in-law.

Jiang Manman was shocked by what Mr. Fu said about the outside world. It turned out that there were people in southern Xinjiang who could control snakes. They also had priests, which was the most important position in the entire country and their words were more effective than those of the emperor.

Women in Beimang were also allowed to ride horses on the streets, and there was even a very powerful female general.

Even the customs in different parts of the Great Zhou are very different. The price of common furs here can be dozens of times higher if sold in the south of the Yangtze River.

There is a lot of water in the south of the Yangtze River, so there are many small boats, and you can do small business on the boats. The lotus flowers on the West Lake are in full bloom, and they are very beautiful.

Jiang Manman seemed to imagine herself strolling in the water village of Jiangnan, her ears filled with the cries of vendors on small boats. She would occasionally stop, take out a few copper coins to buy a bunch of lotus flowers with the lotus pods to eat.

Let’s go to West Lake again and see how many lotus flowers there are.

It seemed that Jiang Manman had found something she liked. She wanted to revise the travelogue and travel out of the mountain village to see the world.

Before, when her aunt asked her if she had anything she liked, she always shook her head and said no. But now she has something she likes, she is very sure.

With someone to chat with, the afternoon passed quickly.

Zhou Rongrong finally completed the operation and took the patient out. Everything went smoothly, the patient's vital signs were stable, and there was nothing abnormal.

Seeing that no one was fine, Zhou Rongrong opened the door. With a creak, Mr. Fu heard it immediately, but remembering Boss Zhou's instructions, he did not step into the yard.

Like a giraffe, Zhou Rongrong nodded when she saw it.

Mr. Fu was in tears, and his tense heart suddenly relaxed, and his head felt dizzy. He was about to faint.

Liu Dazhuang quickly stepped forward and helped the man sit on a chair, and fed him some water before he recovered.

"Nothing, nothing."

Zhou Rongrong comforted him, "Master Fu, don't worry. Qingqing's operation was very successful, but she is still in a coma and can't move. You can go see her when she wakes up. By the way, Dazhuang, go pick up Dabao and the others."

At this time, Dabao and the others were about to finish their get out of class, but Zhou Rongrong's legs were sore after standing for so long.

Liu Dazhuang said, "Okay, Boss."

Jiang Manman squatted beside and rubbed Zhou Rongrong's legs. She was very well-behaved, but she was thinking about something in her mind.

An hour later, the children were brought back and Fu Qing woke up.

He was still speaking incoherently.

"Father, father, my daughter saw a fairy, wearing a face scarf, digging out my daughter's heart."

Zhou Rongrong: ....

"Daughter, daughter, it doesn't hurt at all."

Zhou Rongrong said, "The anesthetic hasn't worn off yet, so you won't feel any pain, but you will still feel pain after the anesthetic wears off. Master Fu, let Qingqing rest here with me for the next few days, and don't move her."

Master Fu wiped the tears from his face and said, "Of course, of course, thank you for troubling Madam Zhou."

"I, I, I don't know how to thank you."

Zhou Rongrong said: "The consultation fee is five hundred taels."

Master Fu: "Ah? No more?"

Zhou Rongrong asked curiously, "Do you think it's cheap?"

According to the purchasing power of the Great Zhou, five hundred taels is already a sky-high medical fee. It is really a lot. Before, Xie Wuyou only paid one hundred taels.

Mr. Fu laughed loudly: "Interesting, interesting, Boss Zhou, your niece is also very talented, your family has a bright future, and my son will definitely make you his friend."

Anyway, he is already half buried in the ground. As long as his daughter becomes close friends with the Zhou family, even if he is gone, Boss Zhou will give his daughter some help in the second half of her life for the sake of the friendship between the two families.

This is what Master Fu saw. Although the Zhou family appears cold and distant on the surface, they are actually very loyal and righteous people at heart.

Zhou Rongrong also likes Fu Qing very much, who is younger than her, soft and sweet, and who can hug your arm and call you sister coquettishly, which can make your heart melt. She didn't have any special feelings about Fu Qing's marriage, but now she wants to know.

You have to know that once you get married in the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is a lifelong commitment, and there is no way to divorce unless there is an unexpected situation.

Then he asked, "I wonder which family your husband belongs to in the capital? I know someone in the capital, I'll ask him about it."

Mr. Fu was naturally very happy when he heard this. Although he had also inquired about it and the information he got back was all good, it would still be more reliable if more people asked, right?

"He is from the Lu family of the Ministry of Rites. Luming means deer as in deer and Ming as in calling. He is the second son of the Lu family. I heard that he is a handsome man and is modest and polite."

Zhou Rongrong secretly made a note and asked Manman to cook.

During the dinner, Mr. Fu also had a very happy chat with several children, and the children all liked this knowledgeable Mr. Lu very much.

The next day.

Zhou Rongrong went to the town, turned a few corners, and entered an inconspicuous little shop. The shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he saw Zhou Rongrong. Even though he didn't say his own name, the waiter greeted her by calling her name.

"Madam Zhou, Madam Zhou, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Do you have a letter for me?"

This small shop was opened by Xie Wuyou and was run by retired soldiers. Their only job was to deliver Zhou Rongrong's letters to him.

But the person had been gone for a long time, and not a single letter from Madam Zhou had come. However, there were a lot of letters written by Xie Wuyou piled up here. If he had not been strictly forbidden to look for Zhou Rongrong, he would have wanted to deliver them personally.

Zhou Rongrong smiled and said, "Yes, please deliver the letter to your grandfather and tell him to investigate this matter carefully."

The shopkeeper received the letter and said quickly, "Okay, okay, Madam Zhou, don't worry, you can call me Sang Biao. I used to be the best servant under you, but now I have injured my leg and have to retire. I have nothing to do."

Zhou Rongrong saw that he did have a limp when he walked, but it was not a big deal. However, Zhou Rongrong was very interested in the scout branch of the army. Those who could serve as scouts in the army were not only good at leg skills, but also smart.

With this ability, he is a small shopkeeper here. Isn't this a waste of talent? Rubbing his hands together means he must get the Tao.

"Brother Sang Biao, are you willing to teach students?"
