Chapter 171 Visiting the Farm with My Mother
The Queen came out rarely and saw Xia Qingqing sitting leisurely.
"Don't you have land on a farm outside here? Why don't you show mother around?"
The Queen never treated Xia Qingqing as a child, but rather as a peer with whom she could talk anything.
Xia Qingqing is not like ordinary children. She grows up quickly and walks and talks much faster than others.
Xia Qingqing was happy to take her mother out for some fun. "Okay, then let's go and have a look together, mother?"
The queen followed Xia Qingqing out, passed by the crowded crowd at the milk tea shop, got on the carriage and headed out of the city.
"Is the scenery outside so beautiful?"
The last time I came out was during a drought.
There are quite a lot of changes outside. The trees here are blooming lushly, which makes me feel good.
"Mother, is it much better outside than inside the palace?"
The queen nodded, that was indeed the case.
"That's why I want to grow vegetables in the palace. Letting them grow vegetables can help them kill time and give them a sense of accomplishment. This way they won't feel bored and have nothing to do, and then start to have bad thoughts."
It was the first time that Xia Qingqing said these words. The Queen looked at her in shock. She didn't expect that she was more thoughtful than her.
All these were done just to make the harem more relaxed. Following her approach, the effect was indeed very good.
While the two were chatting, they had already arrived at the farm in the suburbs. Wu Zhi and the others were all inside and didn't know Xia Qingqing had come.
He took the queen across the room and looked at the fields at the back. This area was all cultivated land, and next to it were greenhouse vegetable sheds.
“Are these vegetables wrapped in oil paper greenhouse vegetables?”
Xia Qingqing nodded. "Yes, these are it. You can remove them when the weather gets hot. Otherwise, the vegetables inside will wilt."
Only then did the queen realize that this is what greenhouse vegetables look like.
It's really amazing that they could think of growing vegetables wrapped in oil paper. Anyway, she couldn't think of it.
Continue walking forward, there is a large area of her medicinal fields, Xia Qingqing said proudly.
"Mom, these are Nannan's medicinal fields. Look, they have all sprouted."
The queen squatted down and looked at the seeds. "I didn't expect they could grow medicinal herbs. It's amazing!"
Xia Qingqing chuckled, "No."
Then he took the queen to the area at the back where wheat and rice were planted. The queen had no idea that there were so many things planted there.
Xia Qingqing explained.
"Mom, I'm researching how to increase rice production. If successful, at least one acre can produce 500 kilograms, which can feed many people.
Food is very expensive nowadays, and rice is even more so. Ordinary people cannot eat good rice and have to eat old rice, which is not nutritious.
As long as the output is high, the price of grain will fall, and then the people will have enough food to eat.”
What Xia Qingqing didn't know was how dazzling she was in the eyes of the Queen when she talked about this matter.
It is a blessing for Longxia Kingdom that her daughter can care about the people.
"Okay, then mother will wait for this day. I believe that this day will not come too late."
"Yeah, definitely."
This hybridization cannot be accomplished in one go; it requires continuous experimentation.
It will take at most ten years, and within these ten years, you will definitely succeed.
After visiting the farm, I knew what Xia Qingqing was busy with. The other children were not as busy as her.
It's getting late, it's time to go back to the palace.
They returned to the palace together, and Xia Qingqing went to the amusement palace to supervise how they were studying.
"how's it going?"
"Princess, I think it's almost done. How about you come and take a look?"
Taohua took Xia Qingqing to look at their techniques and strength, as well as the order of skin care, and basically there were no problems with them.
"In that case, let's give it a try tomorrow."
They all nodded. They were paid for doing this kind of work, but these palace maids didn't know this when they came to do this.
Later, Xia Qingqing told them that they would be paid, and they were very happy to do it.
These wages can be saved so that I can live a good life outside the palace when I leave.
Even if you are not in the capital, you can live a good life somewhere else.
In order to get the wages, you have to work hard. This kind of thing is rare.
Soon all the concubines knew about this matter, and they came to watch the fun the next day.
They had been waiting for a long time when Xia Qingqing arrived. Seeing that she was still taking her time, they hurriedly spoke.
"Princess, please hurry up and tell us what this is."
Xia Qingqing found their anxious expressions a little funny and said.
“This is a beauty salon.”
"Beauty salon? What's that?"
"In simple terms, it's where we help you take care of your skin and make it better."
"But didn't we have those skin care products before?"
Xia Qingqing already knew they would say this, so she said calmly.
"These can't be compared with yours. These will only be effective if used with professional techniques."
"There will also be massages, a place for you to relax, and they will teach you yoga. In short, they will teach you how to stay in shape."
"Keep in shape? And get a massage? That sounds pretty good."
"Yes, it sounds good, but Princess, you said before that it would cost money, how much does it cost?"
Xia Qingqing held up two fingers and said, "For twenty taels of silver a month, you can experience all these projects."
They were stunned. Xia Qingqing thought the price was too high and was about to explain it.
I saw their eyes began to glow red.
"Only twenty taels of silver. I thought it was much more. Isn't this a little too cheap?"
When Xia Qingqing heard what they said, the corners of her mouth curled slightly. These were originally intended to be benefits for them.
The price is definitely a lot lower. It's embarrassing to use them for experiments, and it would be even more unreasonable if the price was higher.
"If you agree, then give me the money."
They paid the money happily. Anyone who didn't want it at such a low price would be a fool. Moreover, they trusted Xia Qingqing very much and thought her things were absolutely good.
After what happened before, they now completely trust her.
When you go in, you can see a wall in front, and no one can see what's behind it.
