Chapter 207 Arrival in Zhongzhou
"This time, the blind boxes sold for a total of 9000 taels. Excluding the 1000 taels of principal, the profit is 8000 taels. Everyone present can get 80 taels!" Pan Yingying said with a smile.

This time she made a net profit of more than 6000 taels, which immediately relieved her fatigue from the journey.

When he heard that he had earned 80 taels, Qing Yi was overjoyed and couldn't help but calculate how much money he could make if this business could be expanded to the capital.

Cheng Hai held his 80 taels in his hands and had already started choosing the color of the bicycle in his mind.

The black one or the red one?
After washing up, Yu Chaosheng walked into the tent. Pan Yingying was still busy under the small desk lamp, and Batian was drooling in his own oversized doghouse.

"What are you doing? Why aren't you sleeping yet? You're tired after a long day." He tiptoed over and got close to Pan Yingying to see what she was writing.

Pan Yingying kept writing without raising her head, "Write a development plan."

Yu Chaosheng was puzzled. “Hasn’t the five-year development plan for the Northwest been almost finalized?”

Pan Yingying said, "It's the development plan of the previous county. I think this county is suitable for a vegetable base."

The Northwest is not very suitable for growing vegetables, but the weather in Xuanzhou is suitable for growing them. Then we can supply the entire Northwest and boost the economies of both sides.

Yu Chaosheng was silent for a moment, so this woman was not forced into doing so, she really wanted to become an empress.

He had just proclaimed himself king and came out from the northwest, and he began to plan for the development of Xuanzhou.

He lay down on the bed and pulled the quilt over his head.

Why is it so difficult to be a male queen who just eats and waits for death?

"Hey, don't sleep anymore. Help me think about whether there are other ways out besides growing vegetables. How about growing fruits? How about medicinal herbs?" Pan Yingying pushed the silkworm cocoon on the bed.

Yu Chaosheng: “Huh…Huh…”

Pan Yingying slapped him in annoyance and said, forget it, let her worry about it more herself.

After all, she wanted to be the empress, and she has to bear the responsibility herself.

When Xuanzhou Prefecture is changed to Xuanzhou City, who should be the mayor?

……

……

When people woke up the next day, those who had just had a quick breakfast had already started stringing beads.

As business was booming yesterday, everyone is very motivated today. They wish they could grow eight hands so they can string ten or eight pieces at a time.

While stringing the beads on her hands, Long Er also took time to match them for the maids. Although she was busy, she felt that her life now was very fulfilling, which was much better than the life in the harem full of fear and intrigue.

Batian wore a string of colorful beads around his neck and one string on each of his four legs. He walked past the large group of beaded people with his head held high.

When Lu Yi saw it like this, he knew what it wanted to hear, so he said loudly, "Master Batian is so handsome!"

Seeing this, others also followed suit and praised.

"Oh, today's Young Master Tyrant is even more powerful than yesterday's Young Master Tyrant!"

"Master Batian is the best tiger in the entire Northwest!"

"..."

Batian raised his chin, flicked his tail, and swaggered to his mother.

Pan Yingying held back her laughter and deliberately asked, "Son, are you still drinking milk today?"

Batian tilted his head and thought, it was already so majestic and powerful, would people laugh at it if it still drank milk?

It turned around and refused with its actions. Now that it was a big tiger, it didn't want to drink milk in public. If it wanted to drink milk, it would wait until the evening when everyone else was asleep and it was time to have a snack with its parents.

Yu Chaosheng hugged its neck and rubbed it hard, "My dear, can you carry me for a walk later?"

Batian let out a roar. His father was as strong as a bull and could obviously walk by himself, but he refused.

It only carried its mother, Yu Batian, who was in poor health and had to take medicine every day!
"Hey! You kid, why are you so partial?" Yu Chaosheng complained, "After all, I raised you with all my heart, and you don't show any filial piety to me at all!"

Pan Yingying laughed loudly and touched Batian's head, "Good boy, smash it!"

However, as they walked forward, Batian still carried Yu Chaosheng for a while. Although it was only for a short ten minutes, it gave the old father some psychological comfort.

Long Sanqi was extremely envious, but she didn't dare to. Batian was not very friendly to the newcomers like them. He only allowed her to touch him once a day, not more than that, let alone climb onto his back.

She had seen with her own eyes that Batian broke five stacked bricks with just one slap.

Long Sanqi believes that his body is not as solid as five bricks.

The next county is larger and more prosperous, probably because it is adjacent to Xuanzhou Prefecture.

This time, I sold things for just one day and left without staying in the city.

Pan Yingying was worried that everyone couldn't afford it, so she specifically asked everyone if they could just not sell it for the time being and take a good rest for two days after arriving at the provincial capital. However, everyone firmly disagreed as everyone wanted to earn more.

Seeing how determined they were, Pan Yingying had no choice but to stop talking and just let them go.

After sleeping outdoors for two months, Yu Chaosheng finally couldn't stand it anymore.

He insisted on resting in the inn for two days. If everyone was still unwilling, they would go their separate ways.

Everyone finally calmed down.

At this time, they had just arrived in Zhongzhou.

Zhongzhou is more than 200 miles away from Wu County and is the hometown of the Yuan family. The Yuan family launched a mutiny from here. After that, the plague raged and this area was taken over by Chen Qinyu.

Originally, Zhongzhou was quite prosperous, but when Pan Yingying and her friends arrived, they saw only desolation.

The houses were dilapidated and the land was completely deserted.

At this time, the Northwest should have started spring plowing, but there is not even a farmer to be seen here.

Pan Yingying sat in the carriage, looking at the vast expanses of land outside through the drawn curtains, her face not looking very good.

As the sky gradually darkened, the team arrived at a village called "Lishuwan".

At the entrance of the village sat an old woman with completely white hair. Her cloth clothes were all patched, and there was no flesh on her cheeks. She was holding a piece of earthy brown food in her hand and chewing it slowly.

Shitou jumped off his horse and stepped forward. Before he could ask any questions, the woman knelt down and kowtowed in panic, "Please spare my life! There are really no males left in the village!"

Shitou was shocked and tried to help the man up. "Old man, please talk nicely. Don't kneel."

The woman refused to get up, and kept muttering, "There are really no male offspring left. There are really no male offspring left in the village."

Not only Pan Yingying, but everyone else in the team had a gloomy look on their faces.

Yu Qiuer and her two sisters looked at each other and trotted over quickly.

"Mother-in-law, we want to ask you for directions. We don't want to capture any men." Her voice was clear, as if it was naturally infectious.

The old woman looked up tremblingly, and saw a fair-skinned girl in a light red dress smiling sweetly at her, and tears immediately flowed down her face.

How long has it been since I last saw such a pretty baby? Not to mention a girl.
