At this time, she was staying alone in the inner room for the reason of needing to rest. When the maids all went out, she entered her companion space.
She specially found flowers and plants with strong fragrance, such as lavender, tulips, grape hyacinth, chamomile, lilac, mimosa, rosemary, thyme, roses, etc. These flowers and plants she had collected from various worlds before were all beautiful. And fragrant.
In addition to flowers and plants, Xu Shichu also plans to plant several kinds of trees. Trees with strong fragrances such as red nan, camphor, juniper, nard, patchouli, and cypress are commonly used for making spices. It is more convenient to plant them yourself.
Although the types of plants to be planted are a bit mixed, who made Xu Shichu poor now? He couldn't use the money in his space to buy a farm specifically for planting flowers, plants and trees, so he had to spend time in his own yard. Fortunately, the Prime Minister's Mansion is grand enough. The yard allotted to her was large enough.
Anyway, she was the only owner living in this yard, so she decided to demolish all the empty and unnecessary houses and keep the land for planting flowers and plants.
Xu Shichu worked hard to pull out flower seedlings and saplings in the space by herself. She was very tired, but she couldn't find anyone to help her. She could only rest for a while and then work again. It took her a long time to finally sort out all the flower seedlings she needed. , I plan to find a time to put it outside and pretend that I sent someone to retrieve it from other places, so as to avoid exposure.
It will take a long time for these flowers and plants to be grown until they are ready for use. Now Xu Shichu wants to make incense, so she can only buy the materials from outside. Some of the medicinal materials she bought in the drugstore before are used for incense. .
However, she can still secretly mix the materials grown in the space with the ones she bought and use them together. I believe she can survive the initial period of the spice shop.
Without further ado, Xu Shichu planned to dress up and go out in the afternoon so that these flower seedlings would appear legitimately.
After lunch, Xu Shichu drank the medicine and said to Zhichun: "I seem to be getting sleepier and sleepier. It seems that this body conditioning medicine is quite useful. I heard from the old doctor that people feel sleepy, which means that the body's self-recovery ability is awakening. The human body uses sleep to repair the internal organs."
After hearing this, Zhichun said happily: "That's great. Madam, if you are sleepy, then sleep well. You can't delay your physical training."
Xu Shichu nodded solemnly: "Then I'll go to sleep. Don't let anyone disturb me, otherwise I'll get angry."
After successfully deceiving the maid, Xu Shichu took the time to "makeover" himself, preparing to disguise himself as a lean and lean middle-aged man.
Her disguise skills are very good. There is no way she can do it. She has risked her life in various worlds to experience them. How can she not be superb?
Soon her eyebrows became thicker, her eyelids drooped, her complexion became rough and dark, and her facial contours became much rougher. She already looked like a middle-aged man who was working hard outside.
She also didn't forget to blacken the skin on her neck, hands and other exposed parts of her clothes, leaving no flaws at all.
Putting on the men's shorts made of coarse cloth left over from an unknown world in the space, Xu Shichu carefully turned out of the window, bypassed the crowded area, and prepared to climb over the wall.
Fortunately, the courtyard she was in was remote enough that the guards from the Prime Minister's Mansion rarely came to inspect, so she successfully found her way out of the mansion.
Xu Shichu walked along the flower and bird market that she had inquired about a long time ago. She was out here these days and wasted no time collecting this information, so there was no need to waste time now and she went straight to the destination.
Arriving at the remote and deserted back alley of the flower seedling market, Xu Shichu quickly took out all the flower seedlings prepared in his companion space and piled them in a pile.
Then she walked into the market and asked a kind-hearted old man who bought parrots: "Uncle, I bought too many flowers and plants. I can't take them back by myself. Is there any guy here who can help me deliver the things to my door?" Of course I'll pay you."
The old man raised his eyes, looked Xu Shichu up and down, and then said: "Where can I find any helpers? Those who buy less will take it back by themselves. Even if someone buys more, they will bring their own helpers. If you don't have anything like you, It’s rare to buy more just because you plan.”
Xu Shichu touched his head and smiled innocently: "I didn't plan to buy more, but didn't I happen to meet a florist selling rare varieties? My master likes strange flowers and plants, so I I bought them all, and now I don’t know how to move them back.”
The old man kindly told him: "Isn't there a dock just a street away? There are many coolies waiting to work there. If you find a few coolies, can't they help you move your things back?"
Then he kicked a seven or eight-year-old child to the side who was playing with a bird: "Tie Zhu, go to the dock and find some coolies to help your uncle!"
The child immediately responded and left.
After a while, a few tall and strong men came over. Xu Shichu took out a few coins and threw them to the children: "Take them to buy candies."
The child cheered and ran away, making the old man laugh and scold him.
Xu Shichu thanked the old man, then took a few men to the place where the flower seedlings were piled in the back alley, and said, "Just help me send these to Prime Minister Luo's Mansion in the inner city."
When several coolies heard about the Prime Minister's Mansion, they were immediately startled and waved their hands hurriedly: "No, no! Where can vulgar people like us go to the Prime Minister's Mansion? We don't dare to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion? My legs are weak !”
Xu Shichu didn't expect that they were so in awe of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Did she underestimate the common people's fear of high officials?
Although she had a headache, she had to comfort them: "What does the Prime Minister have to be afraid of? You are working, and you are not doing bad things for no reason. Can the Prime Minister still blame you? You just need to send them to the door. , tell the concierge that these are the flowers and plants that Madam wants, and the concierge will naturally tell the master, and you don’t have to face those noble people."
The coolie still shook his head, so Xu Shichu had to increase his chips: "Double the shipping fee!"
They were still a little hesitant, but Xu Shichu simply said: "Twice! Three times!"
"Do it! If you die, you will die!" The man who was as strong as a bear clapped his chest and agreed. When the others saw this, they also agreed.
Xu Shichu looked at them with a dark face as they just went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to deliver goods and it was as if they were on the battlefield. They looked like they were looking forward to death. It was really hard to laugh.
So Xu Shichu spent three times the price to send his flower seedlings back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After finishing this matter, she took a shortcut back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, planning to arrive at her home before these people delivered the goods, so as not to expose her secret. Although she told Zhichun not to disturb her, what if it happened?
Xu Shichu returned to his room unknowingly, quickly took off his makeup, put on his own clothes, and returned to his female appearance.
The room was still quiet, no one disturbed me.
