The other courtyard was finally built, and Shen Hexi didn't have much money, so he didn't dare to build an extravagant courtyard, and the four courtyards were enough for him to live in.The front yard is where he handles official business. He lives in the third yard, and one of the rooms encloses the entire hot spring in it.This hot spring is much hotter than the one in the palace. In order to maintain its original appearance, he purposely built it with smooth stones.

He also kept an open-air hot spring in the backyard, and transplanted many wintersweet trees beside the hot spring. He thought that if it snowed in winter, it would be a wonderful day to soak in the hot spring and drink a pot of wine.

In order to save money, Shen Hexi's courtyard is mostly made of wood. The most indispensable thing in this mountain is wood. When the greenhouse was built, a lot of trees were cut down, most of which were used to build the courtyard.

Although the exterior of the other courtyard is somewhat simple, the interior decoration is very luxurious.Li Jiayou rewarded a lot at the beginning, except for the little money, there were many other things.Anyway, the things rewarded by the emperor cannot be sold, and all the things that are not needed by his palace will be transported to other courtyards.

The deafening firecrackers sounded, and Shen Hexi's other courtyard had a plaque "Shen Mansion".It is not a big deal for the prince to build another courtyard, but recently the officials in Dunliang City are very well-behaved, and they are afraid that they will not do well there and offend the young prince.Didn't they just hear that Shen Hexi's other courtyard was built, and congratulatory gifts were sent one after another.

Shen Hexi ordered him to accept everything as long as it was not too outrageous.

"Xiao Xi'er, come here, someone gave you a pot of tarantulas." Li Baihan sat cross-legged on the warm kang, a pot of plants was placed on the small tea table, with a dozen or so red fruits the size of walnuts adorned on it.

"Tarantula?" No matter how the name sounds like a poisonous plant, how could it be placed indoors as a bonsai.Yu Rong opened the beaded curtain in the inner room, while Shen Hexi took off the cloak on his body, while looking in the direction of the warm Kang.There was a small flowerpot in front of Li Bohan, the tomatoes in it were growing well, and there were many bright red fruits hidden under the green leaves.

"Is this a tarantula?" Shen Hexi climbed onto the heating bed and asked in disbelief.How can a tomato have such a strange name.

"Xiao Xi'er knows it. This tarantula is a rare item brought from overseas." This pot of tarantula was sent by Zeng. There is only one pot in the city, and there will never be another pot of tarantulas.

Li Bohan had seen a tarantula before when he was in the Prince's Mansion. This thing is good-looking, but it is not easy to feed. After the fruit is ripe, it will not take long for the whole fruit tree to die. Especially in winter, the tarantula basically cannot be kept alive. , I have been notified that this pot is in full fruit period, and I don't know how much effort he spent to raise it so well.

"I saw it when I was reading miscellaneous books." Shen Hexi touched his nose and said.He couldn't say that his favorite food in his previous life was small tomatoes.

"Oh." Shen Hexi gave him little surprises from time to time too many times, and Li Baihan was used to it. "Look at how this tarantula is doing. The fruit is ripe now, and it won't look so good in a few days." Li Bohan said regretfully.

"When the fruit is more ripe, you can pick it off and use it as a seed." Shen Hexi reached out and picked one off and threw it into his mouth. Well, it tastes good.

Seeing that Shen Hexi had picked a tarantula and ate it directly, Li Bohan was so frightened that he pulled him with his hands, but unfortunately his movements were still a bit slow, "Xi'er spit it out quickly, you can't eat this thing like this." Li Bohan stood up suddenly, Said eagerly.

"Could it be poisonous? It's okay if you taste it, but it's a little sour." Shen Hexi smacked his mouth and muttered, Aoki, who doesn't know tomatoes, has turned into a poisonous fruit, but the taste hasn't changed, it's still tomatoes taste.

Li Bohan stood there in surprise, he was still a little worried, and quickly put his hand on Shen Hexi's wrist, his pulse was stable and extremely strong.

"Why does Xi'er know that this tarantula is not poisonous? Could it be that she read it in a book?" Li Baihan asked suspiciously.

"Yes, the book says that this tarantula can be eaten raw or stir-fried, but I don't know if there are any larger ones. It would be a waste to stir-fry them so small." Shen Hexi said with a smile on his face. He regretted that he had just You're so cheap, why eat it in front of Li Baihan, now that it's all over, he still has to get over his panic.It's just that it's easy to lie, but it's very difficult to lie, not to mention that Li Baihan doesn't believe it at all.

But even if he didn't believe it, he didn't continue to ask. If Shen Hexi wanted to say it, he would have said it long ago. He didn't want to say it. Even if he asked, he couldn't get the answer he wanted.

"Do you know how this tarantula is grown?" Li Bohan continued to ask.

"Well, I know the general idea. I just saw an introduction in a miscellaneous book, saying that after the fruit is ripe, the seeds inside can be used to grow seedlings." Shen Hexi pinched himself hard, but he still ordered it secretly in his heart. One praise, he is so witty, as long as he relies on miscellaneous books, Li Bohan will definitely believe it. There are so many miscellaneous books in the world, and Li Bohan can't read all of them. If he asks him the title of the book, he will make up a nonsense one.

It's a pity that Shen Hexi, who was lying, didn't know. Whether he was in the side courtyard before or returned to the main courtyard later, Li Baihan knew about the books sent to his room.He was afraid that Princess Huiyang would treat him harshly, so he asked Han Zi to pay attention to the books sent to his room.He was quite sure that there would never be any books about tarantulas in those books.

"Then is this pot okay?"

"Yes, I can use this wolf bead to breed several seedlings." Shen Hexi said frankly.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you. If this tarantula can be successfully planted, you can make a lot of money by relying on this tarantula." Li Baihan raised his eyebrows.

"How do you say that?" Shen Hexi was very curious. Could it be that Li Bohan asked him to plant tomatoes on a large scale to sell?

"This tarantula is a good tonic in Yong'an City, and it is dedicated to the palace. These years, the imperial court has sent people to the sea every year to buy tarantulas at a high price and return them to the emperor and the ladies in the palace. The imperial physician in the palace said Tarantulas can prolong life, and they are rare and high-quality medicinal materials. They are usually dried and used as medicine, and they will be thrown into the mouth just like you." Li Baihan said angrily, because the medicine is three-point poisonous. Shen Hexi ate the tarantula directly. He was terrified, and he had never heard of anyone who directly swallowed the tarantula.

Hearing Li Bohan's words, Shen Hexi's eyes lit up. These tomatoes are high in vitamins. As for prolonging life, he doesn't know. Could it be that this continent is different, tomatoes can be eaten as elixir.But no matter what, Shen Hexi decided to plant some tarantulas, not to mention whether they are delicious or not, but just transport them to Yong'an City for sale, and he will not be short of money from now on.

A life without money is called life.Shen Hexi laughed strangely, rubbed his hands together and said, "Brother Han, wait for me to breed a tarantula, and we will eat it every day in the future, scrambled eggs with tarantulas, and tarantula soup. I can always be by Brother Han's side."

The prodigy Shen Hexi turned into a second-hand guy in a second. Li Baihan touched Shen Hexi's soft long hair helplessly and said with a smile, "Okay, when Xier breeds a tarantula, we can eat it together."

The days slipped by without a sound. Shen Hexi's greenhouse and other courtyards were all built. He usually lives in the other courtyard. I want to complain to myself that he has become depraved.

Mr. Linghu sits in the palace over there, and basically he doesn't need to worry about the government affairs in Dunliang City. Every morning, Mr. Linghu will send someone to send a memorial to write down his latest movements and thoughts, and he doesn't use those official words. No matter everything is written straightforwardly, Shen Hexi is extremely easy to understand.

After his other courtyard was built, those miners had nothing to do back then. Shen Hexi asked Fang Ziyu to gather all the exiles. There were as many as 3000 people. They went out to the old, young, women, children, etc., and there were nearly [-] laborers. , so many people are sent to build roads, which is a bit wasteful.

Dunliang City has less farmland and more wasteland. With Shen Hexi's order, more than 1000 people were sent to open up wasteland outside the city.He bought a lot of wheat seeds. If the people were forced to plant them, he was afraid that they would complain, so he decided to open up wasteland by himself. When he came to Dunliang City, he saw a large wasteland outside the city. When the wasteland is reclaimed, not to mention thousands of acres, there are hundreds of acres.

On the first day of reclamation of the wasteland, Shen Hexi and Yan Nu came to see it together. This wasteland is full of rocks, low bushes, and sparse trees. In order to speed up, Fang Ziyu asked people to cut down the trees first. , and then divide this piece of wasteland into several pieces, first use the method of fire to burn the low bushes, and each piece of land has more than a dozen people watching, so there is no need to worry about the fire spreading uncontrollably.

Fang Ziyu looks like a big old man, but his mind is very delicate.After observing these days, Shen Hexi felt that he was a useful person, and he would take care of all the exiled people from now on.

Since these exiles are going to be used, Shen Hexi will not treat them harshly. Although they have all committed crimes, they are still human beings. Since they work for him, he will ensure that they are fed and clothed.

There is still a lot of money looted from Liu Zhifu. Shen Hexi asked people to build a relief center outside Dunliang City. The houses were simple and all built with wood by the exiles themselves. Those with more than six people can split into two rooms. The houses for more than 3000 people are enough to form a large village, but it took less than seven days to build such a large village.

Those exiles, in order to build houses, can be said to have never stopped 24 hours a day.Why the exiles are so desperate, we have to talk about Liu Zhifu.

People who were exiled in the past were directly thrown into the mines. As for the old, young and women who were unable to work, the prefect Liu gathered them all to live in a ruined temple in the south of the city.How big a temple can be, these exiles basically sleep next to each other, there is not even a tile on top of their heads, they are all in the open air.

Under such difficult living conditions, it is unknown how many people die every year.Liu Zhifu didn't care at all, as long as he didn't occupy his house, it didn't matter to him how much he loved to eat his food.

Later, Shen Hexi proposed to build a house for them. Although they did it themselves, it was enough. As long as they had a shelter, they were not afraid of hardship or tiredness.

Shen Hexi improved the treatment of the exiled people, allowing him to get the first batch of hearts and the most loyal to him.The icing on the cake no one will remember you, but giving charcoal in the timely manner can remember you for a lifetime.

These exiled people are not all treacherous and evil people, most of them are ordinary people. They have been exiled to Dunliang City for thousands of miles. Early death, early birth.The appearance of Shen Hexi gave their dark life a ray of light, and they rekindled hope for life, maybe they can survive in this poor Dunliang City.
