Uncle Sun took Ye Jintang to see the yard and talked about the general situation of the yard while walking.
The owner of the courtyard is Zhang Juren. He was just over 20, but both his parents died. He could not live in such a big courtyard alone, so he separated a small courtyard and rented it out.
"Zhang Juren is a well-known young student here. In the past two years for the Ninth Prince's birthday, the emperor's grace was so great that Enke was specially invited to attend. Counting it up, Zhang Juren has participated in the Spring Festival twice at a young age. If he comes again, he will definitely be able to go to high school."
Hearing Uncle Sun mention the Ninth Prince, Ye Jintang couldn't help but curl his lips.
In the original work, the Ninth Prince's biological mother, Imperial Concubine Dehui, was at the right time to be favored. When the Ninth Prince was born, the Emperor immediately broke the ancestral rules. Not only did he grant amnesty to the whole world, but he also imposed an encore, and even directly named the Ninth Prince Prince An.
The former prince Xiao Mo, who had made great contributions to the Beixu Kingdom, was seriously injured and was dethroned as the crown prince and named King of Qin. His fiefdom was Ningchuan Prefecture, the most desolate state in the entire Beixu Kingdom.
Sure enough, if the mother and concubine are favored, the son can also get more benefits. Without the mother and concubine, even if he is as strong as Xiao Mo, he cannot keep his position as the prince.
The original owner married the King of Qin on behalf of Ye Yanran and went to Ningchuan Prefecture with him. He died of illness within a year.
King Qin was seriously injured and never recovered. He went to live in Ningchuanzhou, where the environment was harsh, and he only lived half a year longer than the original owner.
Ye Jintang was thinking that if the original owner was stronger and could survive King Qin, her life in Ningchuan Prefecture would be pretty good.
At first, Ye Jintang was quite resistant to the idea of a substitute marriage, but now it seemed that marrying the King of Qin, who was about to die soon, was a good way out.
When the time comes, she casually adopts an ignorant child from King Qin's concubine to her knees.
She has status and status, and a huge amount of property. She has no mother-in-law to embarrass her, and no embarrassing concubines. She has the final say in the entire palace. Thinking about this day is exciting.
Back to the capital, even if Ye Yanran doesn't let her marry him, she will take the initiative to marry the short-lived King Qin.
"Girl, this is the courtyard."
Uncle Sun's words interrupted Ye Jintang's sweet dream.
He looked up at the courtyard in front of him. The courtyard wall was more than three meters high and the courtyard door was thick. It looked very safe.
After entering, there is a screen wall painted with auspicious patterns, and inside are four main rooms and two small side rooms.
The house is very clean, and there are even many flowers and plants planted in the yard, which looks a bit elegant.
"Uncle Sun, go and ask Zhang Juren to come over. I want to rent this yard."
"Okay, Zhang Ju lives next door. I'll bring him here right away."
After half a cup of tea, I saw a young man wearing a blue gown with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes walking over quickly following Uncle Sun.
Zhang Juren heard that Ye Jintang was only staying for a month, but he was not reluctant because of her short stay.
"I live next door. If you need anything, young master, just come to me."
"There is a reward for success."
Ye Jintang didn't expect that renting the small courtyard would go so smoothly. It only took two cups of tea to get out of the courtyard, and he had an extra key in his hand.
If someone else wanted to move, it would definitely take a lot of effort. After all, Magistrate Ye left a lot of property, and none of it could be moved in three to five days.
But Ye Jintang has the Shennong Immortal Mansion in his hands. Although the area is a bit small and the large furniture is placed all over the place, it doesn't look good at all. But for Ye Jintang, as long as everything in the yard can be emptied, everything else is secondary.
Ye Jintang only had Luzhu, a maid, by his side, so it was very inconvenient to do some things.
She just wanted to buy another servant to help her run errands.
Boys from wealthy families who can serve girls are usually born into the family and trained from an early age.
Ye Jintang felt a little uneasy. She wanted to buy one temporarily, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to buy the right one for a while.
Let's put this matter aside for the time being. When we move to the small courtyard tomorrow, it won't be too late to find Ren Yazi and buy a servant.
When riding the carriage back to the government office, Ye Jintang went into the fairy mansion to collect all the corn she had planted.
Sowing a handful of corn seeds into the ground again, she was not in a hurry to leave the fairy house, but observed the growth of the corn in the ground.
In a short time, the corn that had just been planted had sprouted and grown more than ten centimeters tall.
Looking at the green cornfield, Ye Jintang had an idea in his mind.
Will the plants in Shen Nong's Fairy Mansion be the same as those she used to play on Happy Farm?
Crops grow extremely fast, with one crop taking only ten minutes. Fruit trees and some low-grade medicinal materials will take a little longer. The maturity time of perennial plants will be determined based on the rarity of the plants.
As she harvests more and more, the Immortal Mansion will be upgraded and the available area will be expanded.
Maybe after reaching a certain level, other functions can be enabled.
The more Ye Jintang thought about it, the more excited she became. As long as the Immortal Palace was there, even if she was a little orphan with nothing, she could still live a good life in this ancient world where men were superior to women.
As a man of action, Ye Jintang does what he says.
She took out all the seeds she roughly knew from the wooden box and placed them on the ground.
Corn, peanuts, wheat, rice, these crops are put together.
Tomatoes, beans, peppers, cabbage and other vegetables are put together.
Potatoes, sweet potatoes and other root crops are also put together.
As for the fruit trees, Ye Jintang chose a bundle of peach branches and a bundle of apple branches. He didn't know how to grow fruit trees with only branches in the fairy mansion.
There are also various medicinal materials, but she knows relatively few about them. The most precious ones are personal ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum.
When Ye Jintang packed up the seeds, she looked up and saw that the corn she had just planted had grown as tall as a person. There were two huge corn cobs on each corn, which looked very gratifying.
Calculating the time, from the time she planted the corn to now, it was just a cup of tea.
A crop of corn can be harvested in just one cup of tea. This efficiency is simply incredible.
Then Ye Jintang quickly planted all the other seeds he had prepared.
Time passed by minute by second, and it turned out that it was exactly what she thought. Grain and vegetable crops could mature in less than a cup of tea.
The longer the rhizome is, the longer it takes to make a cup of tea.
Fruit trees take longer. Two cups of tea have passed and the fruit trees haven’t bloomed yet.
The food was easy to put away and easy to get rid of. Ye Jintang sat on the carriage and started to plant all kinds of food frantically.
When her carriage entered the alley where the county government was located, she saw the upgrade of Shennong's Immortal Mansion as she wished.
The farmland area in the fairy mansion has doubled, and the place where the wooden boxes were originally placed has become four bamboo houses.
The bamboo bed and bamboo chairs in the house look a bit crude.
Having a room like this is better than a wooden box, and you can put more things in it.
According to Ye Jintang's previous experience in playing games, Shennong Immortal Mansion should be upgraded quickly in the early stage, and it will become increasingly difficult in the later stages.
The bamboo house was filled with excitement. Ye Jintang waved his hand. Except for the bedroom, the other three rooms were all filled with large wooden boxes.
Even so, there are still a lot of miscellaneous things placed outside the house.
Ye Jintang decided not to do anything today but to grow food in the Immortal Mansion and quickly expand the area of the Immortal Mansion so that she could collect everything in the Immortal Mansion tonight.
