Miao Jingjing was reluctant to have Li Baolu lose all her skills. It wasn't that she never thought of escaping, but the bamboo forests around Lingtianmen had hidden formations, and even if the effect wasn't as good as that of the missing forest, she wouldn't be able to escape.

   Besides, there are still Master, Bai Yitang and Li Baolu, these three are not easy to mess with, and it is impossible to escape from under their noses quietly.

  Miao Jingjing could only be aggrieved to be abolished. In the end, although she was not so angry that she vomited blood, she was so resentful that her eyes widened and she couldn't sleep for two days in a row.

   Dabao was frightened by his mother, and after crying for a while, he got closer to the Cao family.

  Ma Yihong and Miao Jingjing were both immersed in their own hatred, how could they think of their son, and the big treasure was handed over to the master to take them at ease.

  The two did not want to see Bai Yitang and Li Baolu, and often stayed in their own room in a daze. Bai Yitang was so satisfied that they pulled Qin Wenyin down the mountain to help Master and them choose a homestead.

   This area belongs to Lingtianmen, and the village below is composed of tenants of Lingtianmen. There is no so-called village chief, so he decides his land, and he wants whichever piece of land he wants.

   And Gu Jingyun tossed around a well, trying to make a device for shaking water.

  Li Baolu went to the study and found him a lot of books on the agency. Combined with some knowledge from her previous life, after three days and eight failures, she finally made a water shaker that can shake water from a well.

A diabolo was randomly inserted at the exit to let the water that was shaken fall from the diabolo. Gu Jingyun used a cowhide instead of the piston that should have been made of rubber. Coming up, it is much easier than using a reel to draw water. The most important thing is that you don't have to throw the barrel into the well and then take it up again.

   And because it is convenient to shake the water, even children aged three or four can do it.

  Gu Jingyun drew the blueprints, recorded all the required materials and production methods, and handed them over to Bai Yitang so that he could install them when digging wells.

   Bai Yitang was very happy, Bai Baishan and Cao Shi were even more happy, watching Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu kept praising their filial piety.

   For them to come up with this thing, is this not filial piety?

  It’s a pity that they couldn’t stay for a long time. They could only stay for another day before leaving because they had to rush to Qiongzhou.

   Mr. Cao was a little disappointed, but Bai Baishan was used to it. He stroked his beard and nodded, "Alright, just remember to come back to see the two old people in the future. If you have something to do now, go to work first. There is still your master here."

  Bai Yitang intends to stay here a little longer, at least to build the house and settle the master and mother.

Qin Wenyin has no opinion at all. In fact, she likes it very much. It is surrounded by green bamboo, the scenery is beautiful, and there are so many books to read. It can be seen that the former leaders of Lingtianmen are very elegant and interesting, and they have many hobbies. There is no shortage of musical instruments such as qin, flute and xiao.

   Qin Wenyin didn't want to leave.

   So when Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu left, Qin Wenyin accompanies Cao to talk, cook some meals for everyone, play with Dabao for a while, play the piano and read books in his spare time, and accompany Bai Yitang to the nearby mountains, waters and beauties.

   On the other hand, Bai Yitang took the tenants and villagers at the foot of the mountain to dig the foundation and bought bricks to build the house.

   In order not to let Master and the others go far when they were farming, they leveled the wasteland not far from their house to grow food for them, and even brought people to re-fertilize the land.

   In order to make it easier for them to travel, he had to hit a stone with someone to come back to repair the road, and directly repair the road to be in line with the official road.

   While he was busy with all this, Li Baolu and Gu Jingyun had all the way from the Yangtze River to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and then to Hangzhou, from Hangzhou to Qiongzhou by sea, a total of only ten days.

   It was just in the morning when they arrived in Qiongzhou, and there were many coolies on the dock waiting to move the goods.

  Li Baolu asked someone to help pull the carriage off the boat and pulled it directly to the bull market.

   The group of three did not stop at all, just bought three cages of steamed buns and drove to Sin Village.

  Li Baolu leaned against the wall of the car and looked at the lively crowd on the street through the car window, and said with a sense of loss: "Qiongzhou seems to be more and more prosperous."

  Gu Jingyun also looked at the people coming and going outside, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, he had always been in touch with Zhang Yiyan, and naturally knew the reason for this change.

  The cultivation of hemp has been expanded from Sin Village to the entire Qiongzhou, and because of the continuous improvement of the spinning machine, the manufacture of hemp is accelerated step by step, the cost is reduced, and the production efficiency is fast.

Now the linen in Qiongzhou has not only supplied Bora, but other companies have also begun to purchase goods in Qiongzhou. There are more merchants, more inns, restaurants and grocery stores, and less idle labor. Even farmers in remote areas, as long as they are willing to work hard to come to the county seat. Can find work to do, some income.

   The cultivation of tea is still in the experimental stage, but the results are not bad from the data obtained so far.

  Once tea can be planted, fried and sold, the people of Qiongzhou will have another source of life. For the two of them, Qiongzhou is the place where they grew up, and it is their second hometown, so they hope it will develop better.

  The carriages were fast, and they arrived at Wucun just after noon. Before entering the village, someone rushed back to report the letter, and then Li Jun brought someone to greet him.

   "It was two days earlier than expected, you must be exhausted on the road?"

  Li Baolu jumped out of the carriage, glanced at the people behind him, and nodded: "Fortunately, it's still relatively stable by boat."

  Li Jun followed her gaze and said hurriedly, "These are the elders in the village, you must not know them."

   These people are all "old people" in Wucun. I thought that the people here would live here forever, and even their descendants would die here. Who would have expected the Li family to be able to return home after reconciliation.

  It is impossible not to be excited, but they still have self-knowledge and know that the Li family is really wronged, so there is still a chance to rehabilitate, and they...

   I used to be jealous at most when I couldn't see it, but now I see it, and I realize that the difference is so big that I can't even feel jealous.

  Only Li Junshi, everyone may still say a few sour words. Now that everyone sees Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu, everyone put away their extra thoughts and only dare to show a respectful look.

  Because everyone knows that the business that is popular in Qiongzhou is now in the hands of the couple.

Although some people learned the technology of textile machinery and made imitation products, they were no longer subject to Zhang Yiyan, and some people began to learn from Zhang Yiyan to buy linen, but because Zhang Yiyan had expanded his business and gained prestige, and everyone always felt that it was imitation outside. The textile machines produced by Zhang Yiyan are not as good as those produced by one village in Sin Village, so everyone is more inclined to sign a contract with Zhang Yiyan.

   Of course, the main reason is that the price they gave was fair, and the people who intervened in the middle also thought about using high prices to squeeze the market, but because Zhang Yiyan had a lot of weavers, this strategy was useless to Zhang Yiyan. Instead, he ruined himself.

   After getting it, everyone learned to be good, and the price was not set too high, just a little more than Zhang Yiyan's, in order to get the fabric.

If the    is too high, they will not make any money, because they are small in scale and earn less than Zhang Yiyan, so it is difficult to expand the scale, and no one can surpass Zhang Yiyan under the cycle.

   And Zhang Yiyan is Gu Jingyun's spokesperson in Qiongzhou, which is known to all the people of Qiongzhou.

   So how dare they offend Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu? Seeing the tired faces of the two of them, they only dared to say hello and quickly left.

   Back at the village of sin, Li Baolu didn't care anymore, she directly reached out to support Gu Jingyun, and helped him back intimately.

   "Have you visited your grandfather's graves, how are the preparations?"

   "Everything is ready. I thought you would arrive on the first day of the first day of the new year. I invited someone to count the days after that. The tomb will be set up on the third day of the eighth lunar month. Since you arrived earlier, do you want to come earlier?"

  Li Baolu thought for a while and shook her head: "No, we have to meet some people too, so let's do it later."

  Li Jun expressed his understanding, and hurriedly asked the servants to boil water for the two of them and cook by the way.

  Li Baolu glanced at those people, and Li Jun explained: "These are servants of the world. It is a big event to raise a grave, and the journey is long, so Grandpa specially asked them to take care of me."

   Li Baolu glanced at them and saw that they were all young and strong. If they really came here to raise a grave, at least someone who was older would have to come with more knowledge, right?

   But she saw that Li Jun was not ignorant, so she left it alone. Anyway, Li Jun will also be in contact with Shunde in the future. Since he knew something in his heart, she would leave it alone.

   After washing and eating, Li Baolu also knew what happened after she left. Li Hong didn't know that Qian Quan had been spent by Li Jun until he returned to the capital, and he fainted from anger.

   At that time, Li Jun had already obtained the title deed and house deed and other things, and handed over the things belonging to the eldest sister and the younger sister to them for safekeeping.

   No one can take it unless he comes in person, or someone he appoints to take it.

   Mrs. Mei didn't know that only one-third of the property was in the box, she just thought that all the property was locked inside, so seeing Li Hong who woke up making a fuss, she told him about it without any burden.

  Li Hong fainted again when he learned that Li Jun's designated candidate was Li Baolu.

   He couldn't force Li Jun, and he couldn't force Li Baolu even stronger, which meant that he couldn't get the money, and he couldn't get the property that the money bought.

   All the plans came to nothing in an instant, and Li Hong almost suffered a stroke.

  No one knew that the three sisters and brothers Li Jun still had 30,000 taels of silver notes, 10,000 taels per person.

   In order to comfort Li Hong, Li Jun could only give him the remaining 4,000 taels of silver, telling him that there were only 4,000 taels left of all the money.

   And the house they just bought was empty. If they want to live in, they must buy some furniture and other things. Li Jun promised to give Li Hong the rest after buying the things.

  Li Hong almost spit out a mouthful of blood, so he might as well not give it.

  150,000 taels and only 4,000 taels left in the end. He still has to pay to buy furniture. Is there any justice in this world?

  Because Li Hong cried every day at home, he really cried, and everyone in Liuer Hutong knew that Li Jun's prodigal son had lost all his fortune.

   Together with Xintang, they sent people to ask questions. In the end, Li Xie and Li Sheng had to come forward to comfort Li Hong, and then separated Li Jun and asked him to bring his servants to Qiongzhou to bury the grave.

   When Li Jun left, he was not worried that the Shunde Li clan would go wrong, because Li He and Li Liu were there, and they were determined to be higher than him.
