Gongsun MO and Lei Tong Tong did not have any management experience, so Su Binglan asked her parents to help. Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua were delighted to do so.

“Don’t worry, Binglan. We’ll help you get it done without a hitch.”

The older couple had been managing the tofu factory for a long time and had garnered much experience. Su Binglan was relieved that her parents could help with the toy factory.

She said, “I’ll send them a full-time manager soon.”

Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua did not ask about the specifics. They knew their daughter had her reasons for doing things. They just had to help her whenever she needed them.

Su Binglan felt a warmth in her heart because her parents supported her unconditionally.

Su Yi had already nurtured many management talents and Sacrificials. Su Binglan felt even more at ease letting her subordinates manage factories.

Afterward, Su Binglan got Su Xueye to dig a pond in a space beside the paper mill. Then, she set up a fence around the pond so it would be convenient to dry the paper.

Su Xueye was stunned when he realized Su Binglan was building a paper mill. Although he was usually talkative, he was shocked this time and could barely speak.

After a while, he asked, “Do you know how to make paper?”

“Yes, I do.” Su Binglan nodded.

“You’re amazing, Aunt Binglan.” Su Xueye believed Su Binglan’s claim. “Will your paper be expensive, or will it be cheaper than the ones on the market? Although I’m earning a lot now, paper is still pretty expensive, and I can’t bear to waste it.

“I went to a private school for some time. Some of my classmates couldn’t afford paper. Although they excelled in their studies, they later stopped attending school because they couldn’t afford writing materials.”

Su Xueye sighed.

Even if most lived in better conditions now, they still could not bear to send their children to school because the cost of education was too high. Of course, some were still willing to send their children to school. Still, they would spend a fortune on books and paper.

Su Binglan wanted to pat Su Xueye’s head, but she realized how much taller he had become. He was a head taller than Su Binglan, so she patted his shoulder instead, saying, “Don’t sigh like that. Paper is expensive because it’s made from costly materials.

“On the other hand, I’ll make paper with trees, rattan bark, and so on. Those raw materials are affordable, so the cost of my paper will be much lower.”

Su Xueye was excited when he heard that. “Many more people will be grateful to you now, Aunt Binglan.”

Su Binglan said smilingly, “I’m not doing it for recognition. I just want to make the paper more accessible, and then you can draw blueprints as you wish. You won’t have to worry about saving on paper anymore. Besides, I can still afford paper for you, Xueye.”

Su Xueye’s eyes reddened. He knew how good Su Binglan was to him. Although the two were the same age, Su Xueye admired Su Binglan for knowing a lot. He also aspired to be like her.

Su Binglan said, “Books will also be more accessible once I create a printing technique. Then, the villagers will no longer have to work so hard to make copies. I’ll also make books much more affordable.”

The more Su Xueye listened, the more excited he became. He could imagine how wonderful it would be.@@novelbin@@

‘Soon, everyone will have books to read and paper to use.’

Su Xueye’s hobby was to collect books, but they were too expensive. After hearing Su Binglan’s plans, he knew he could buy many more books to read.

Su Binglan pointed to the distance and said, “Look at that circular three- story building you built. I’ll be using it as a library.”

“Is it for books?” Su Xueye had gotten used to Su Binglan’s vocabulary and could make guesses about what her new words meant. If he did not understand, Su Binglan would patiently explain it to him.

She nodded, saying, “You’re right. I’ll buy and collect plenty of books and put them in the library. That way, those who like reading can get a library card that they can use to borrow the books.

“The card will be an annual one, and renewing it will be cheap. That way, everyone can read at their leisure. I’m hoping someone will be willing to donate books to the library, too.”

Su Xueye’s eyes lit up when he heard that. “Aunt Binglan, our village will become even more famous then. All the students in the world might come to borrow and read books from the library.”

He almost jumped when he imagined what it would look like. “I’ve collected many books already, Aunt Binglan. I can donate them to the library.”

Su Binglan said smilingly, “Okay, they will remain in the library. If you want to read them, you can always visit the library. Don’t worry—we’ll blacklist those who ruin the books or fail to return them on time.

“When people apply for the library card, we will record their information.

They can only borrow or read the books after going through verification.”

Su Xueye was full of admiration as he said, “That’s a perfect idea. Then, the books won’t be damaged or lost.”

“That’s correct. Also, one person can only borrow three books at a time. They must return those books within a month. It’ll also urge them to finish reading the books as soon as possible.”

Su Xueye thought it was an excellent idea. “Then, we can prevent people from keeping the books for too long. After all, others might want to read the same books, right?”

“Yes, you’re right.” Su Binglan had considered everything.

Su Xueye added, “It’s such a vast building. I thought you’d use it for something else. I didn’t expect you to use it as a library.”

The building was large enough to accommodate many people, especially with its three floors and circular shape.

Su Binglan said, “There will be a lecture hall at the theater. It’ll be open to the public whenever there are no plays. Everyone can sit inside and read books for free then. Students can also study inside.”

Su Xueye said emotionally, “l would have continued studying if such a building existed before.”

Although he had told his grandparents that he did not like studying, it was actually because the cost was too high. Furthermore, the learning atmosphere differed.

The learning atmosphere in the library would be much better, encouraging people to study more.

Su Binglan said, “Learning is an endless thing. If you have questions, you can always ask me. When I open the library, you can study at the desks inside or the open theater table..”

Su Xueye looked at Su Binglan with teary eyes. He knew his life had improved because of her.

Su Binglan looked at his childlike appearance and smiled, saying, “I believe you will become a magnificent architect.”

Su Xueye nodded vigorously. “I’ll make you proud, Aunt Binglan. I want to be as capable as you one day.”

After speaking to Su Xueye, Su Binglan visited the town to look for Lin Zheng. The latter was still managing the dessert shop. Although the shop retained its initial size, it served many more new desserts.

Su Binglan would make many new desserts and sell them there. Most townsfolk enjoyed eating food from the dessert shop.

Lin Zheng was not bored of managing the shop. He had learned much from Su Binglan and wanted to continue learning. Of course, Su Binglan had also taught him to make desserts.

Lin Zheng could even make them in the kitchen behind the dessert shop. Su Binglan was relieved to entrust the shop to him. They had also hired two waiters so Lin Zheng would not be too busy.

Everyone was busy since spring was approaching. Many wanted to buy snacks from the shop to keep at home. Whenever they got hungry, they would eat the snacks.

Although the shop’s desserts were exquisite, they were not expensive. The shot also sold shortbreads that were affordable, so most people bought and kept them at home.

Traveling merchants would also buy desserts from the shop to bring to their hometown as gifts. Therefore, Su Binglan prepared many dessert boxes for the shop.

“Shopkeeper Lin, I’d like to buy ten sets of these, please.”

Ads by Pubfuture “I got you,” Lin Zheng said smilingly, “I’ll get someone to pack them for you.

You look familiar, sir. Have you been here before?”

The customer answered, ‘You’re right. You have a good memory, Shopkeeper Lin. I didn’t expect you to remember me. I helped my family transfer goods to this town last winter.

“We were on the river when it happened to snow heavily. We stopped the boat here in Tenghe Town and had a hotpot around here. I didn’t expect this small town to have so many delicacies.

“l heard the desserts here were delicious, so I brought some back to my hometown. My family enjoyed what I bought them. Even though I bought plenty, my family wanted more. Even my wife praised me for having good taste. Hahaha.’

The customer could not help but laugh as he continued, “I want to bring more desserts home this time. The old madam wants to use them as gifts.”

Lin Zheng smiled, saying, “Our desserts are exquisite. You can’t get such quality elsewhere.”

“l agree. I’ve traveled all over the world to transport goods for many years, but I’ve never seen such desserts and snacks. You sell a vast variety that not only looks good but also tastes delicious. Adults and children alike enjoy your food. “Although the old madam isn’t fond of snacks, she only eats your desserts. I’ll also buy cured meats for my family this time. My daughter-in-law and her children love cured meats, especially the sausages. It’s even tastier when we eat them with steamed buns.’

The customer wanted to buy a little of everything from Tenghe Town. However, he had to transport many things this time and only had little space on his carriage.

The customer spoke with a bright smile. He had returned home with many things last time, and the old madam was satisfied with him. He was now a highly-regarded member of the family.

He was initially a disciple of the familys branch. He was inconspicuous among many of the family members. However, he stood out from the rest of the family because of Su Binglan’s delicacies.

Soon, the waiter finished packing the customer’s orders. “Here you go, sir.”

“Thank you for packing these for me. I’ll eat these with my family when I get home.’

The desserts in the gift boxes were for certain people, and those in bulk were for the customers family members. Lin Zheng knew most traveling customers ordered their desserts like that.

Ads by Pubfuture “Okay, I’ll pack more for you now. Which snacks do you want, sir?”

The customer looked at the various snacks and wished he could buy them all.

He said, “l don’t really know. Could you recommend some, and I’ll get those?”

The waiter smiled and said, “All these taste good, sir. I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with any of these.”

The customer blushed, saying, “I’m sorry I misspoke. Could you weigh these for me?”

“Oh, you can choose whichever snack you’d like. Then we’ll pack those you chose at the counter.’

Finally, the customer noticed other people using small baskets and a tong to pick their snacks and buns. It looked strange to him, but that was because he was in a rush the last time he visited the dessert shop. The customer did not notice it then.

However, other shops operated differently. They feared customers would touch the food, so the waiters usually helped them handle the food. Shopkeepers also feared people stealing their food.

The customer chose many snacks and buns. Then, Lin Zheng weighed them and calculated the price.

The customer asked, stunned, “Don’t you need an abacus to count these?”

The waiter at the side said, “Our manager doesn’t need it. He’s so smart that he calculates the costs in his mind. He’s amazing.”

Even when there were a lot of customers, Lin Zheng could calculate quickly so no one would have to wait in queue for too long. He had learned to calculate quickly because Su Binglan had taught him about Arabic numbers.

Of course, he still needed to know what the customers had bought. He could do everything after simply glancing at what the customers chose.

Although the dessert shop was not as big as the hotpot restaurants, the dessert shop received just as many customers.

Most of the time, the dessert shop would sell out of their food before the afternoon. Then, Lin Zheng would go to the kitchen behind the shop to make more. Afterward, he would start selling more desserts. Some customers would even wait for him to finish cooking.@@novelbin@@

Lin Zheng had not seen his master for a long time. He knew Su Binglan was busy and would only look for him if she needed something.

He still wanted to go on missions with her, but he had a recent problem. Someone had told him they had another identity, but he did not quite believe it. That person even produced evidence, and his parents even admitted it.

Lin Zheng was making more desserts while thinking about something when Su Binglan came to the shop..

Lin Zhengs eyes lit up when he saw Su Binglan. “Master, what are you doing here?”

He sounded childish and felt like he was about to cry.

Su Binglan’s lips twitched, but she looked at him, asking, “You haven’t slept well recently, have you? Are you tired from running the dessert shop?”

Lin Zheng hurriedly shook his head. “N-No, Master. I’m doing very well here. I can make desserts now, too.’

Making desserts was a valuable skill to him. With it, he could live a good life no matter where he was. Su Binglan had taught him to make her desserts, which meant she trusted him fully.

Lin Zheng did not know what he liked to do for a living last time. After learning to make desserts, he realized he enjoyed it. Moreover, he could enjoy the sweet fragrance and felt a sense of accomplishment whenever he saw the customers enjoying his desserts.

“Is there something on your mind?” Su Binglan asked.

Lin Zheng looked into his master’s eyes, realizing he could hide nothing from her. “You saw through me, Master.”

Because it was a secretive matter, he would not have told anyone else. However, he trusted his master most. Su Binglan asked, “What is it? Maybe I can help you.”

She knew Lin Zheng genuinely regarded her as his master, so she would do everything to protect her disciple.

Ads by Pubfuture Lin Zheng became teary eyes, saying, “You’re so good to me, Master.”

“All right, let’s discuss it.”

Lin Zheng quickly suppressed his emotions and said, “I seem to have another background.”

“What background?” Su Binglan calmly asked.

Lin Zheng asked back, “Don’t you think it’s strange, Master?”

“There’s nothing strange about it, but it’s obviously bothering you, right?”

Lin Zheng nodded. “Yes, I thought I was my family’s second son, but it turns out I’m not. Apparently, someone had entrusted me to my family, and that person has recently reappeared.

“He’s the real second son of the Lin family. He said that I’m the son of Bright

Moon City’s lord.”

‘The Bright Moon City?’

Su Binglan had come to this world and read many books about it, so she knew nearly everything about this continent. Bright Moon City was in the desert outside Chu State’s borders. It was a legendary city hidden in the desert.

There were many legends about the city, and most believed it was a mirror city. Some said it did not exist, while others believe there was a severe internal battle that destroyed it, leaving it in ruins.

People also told stories about Xuan Nation destroying Bright Moon City. Xuan Nation was a relatively mysterious country further northwest of Chu Country.

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan asked, “Do you want to go back?”

Lin Zheng shook his head. “I don’t want to. My second uncle said that my biological mother had no choice but to take me away from Bright Moon City to protect me.

“She died sending me here, so my biological father might not know about me.

Still, I don’t want to go back.”@@novelbin@@

Su Binglan gently said, “Don’t worry. You can do whatever you want to do. Don’t torture yourself for not wanting to get involved. It’s okay if you don’t want to go back.

“Besides, your current parents haven’t chased you away, right? Don’t they still treat you as their real son?”

After some thought, Lin Zheng agreed. “My heart feels lighter now that you’ve said that. I was just being hard on myself.”

Su Binglan said, “Since you no longer feel conflicted, I’ll arrange some tasks for you to do. You can expand the dessert shop’s brand elsewhere.”

Lin Zheng felt energized when he heard that. “Master, you’re finally preparing to expand! You have no idea how many traveling customers have asked if I’ll open a shop in their area.

“It’s so inconvenient for them to travel all this way just to buy our desserts. The customers say all our desserts are delicious and unique. They can’t get these anywhere else.”

Su Binglan smiled. “I’ll leave it up to you, okay? Here’s the starting capital. You can use it to expand.”

“M-Master, you’re leaving everything to me?!” Lin Zheng felt an overwhelming sense of trust.

“Of course. That’s because I believe in you.” Su Binglan smiled. “Besides, you can open shops in Bright Moon City if you someday decide to return. You have the experience to do it.

Ads by Pubfuture “You’ll have a right to influence in that city if you have some control over its economics. ”

Lin Zheng was delighted. He knew his master wanted to help him by entrusting him with the dessert shops. It was also to train his abilities further.

He said, “Thank you, Master.”

Su Binglan looked at him encouragingly, saying, “Trust your gut. If you face any problems, you can ask for my help. However, I will be visiting the prefecture soon, so you must wait for me to return if you need help.” “I understand, Master. Don’t you need me to accompany you there?”

“No need. Just focus on your business and continue learning.”

Since Lin Zheng had discovered his new identity, Su Binglan wanted to make more preparations for him. It would be fine if he did not return to Bright Moon City. Even so, he would need to be capable if he changed his mind.

Expanding Binglan’s Desserts would allow him to understand business more. In the future, he could entrust other managers to tend to his shops.

After giving Lin Zheng some instructions, Su Binglan left and walked around Tenghe Town. Soon, she reached Blue Mountain Academy’s entrance. She saw a vast piece of land behind it.

She had many thoughts and ideas after seeing the land. Suddenly, she clapped, and Su Chun appeared from the shadows. Su Binglan said, “Go to the town’s administrator and buy this land for me.”

“Right away, Master.”

While Su Yi was busy with his tasks, Su Chun became his replacement. If Su Binglan needed something, she would call for Su Chun. If not, he would remain in the shadows, ready for her call.

Su Binglan rubbed her chin and muttered, “I can build houses here. They should be in high demand since it’s so close to the school. Still, I must leave part of it to Nir. Kong to use as a welfare room.

“With this spare land, Mr. Kong could poach some Confucians to teach at the school.’

After Su Chun completed the purchase of the land. Su Binglan quickly told Su Xueye to build houses there. After arranging many other things, Su Binglan brought Su Yi and Su Chun to the prefecture.

Dingzhou’s prefecture looked massive, but it was still desolate compared to the bustling capital. Even so, there was already a hotpot restaurant in the prefecture.

Su Binglan saw the restaurant as she traversed the streets. The plaque on it was the same as those in Tenghe Town—Su’ s Hotpot. The restaurant looked lively from afar. Many were in and outside the shop.

“Master, there’s a Su e s Hotpot here too. Everyone looks like they’re enjoying themselves.” Su Chun was delighted to see it. “However, this is the only place that’s bustling with activity.”

Su Binglan brought Su Chun along because he had a slightly more carefree attitude than the other Sacrificials. She said, “The prefecture will be even more lively with proper planning and construction..”

The carriage behind Su Binglan had sweet potato seeds in it. She had placed more seeds in her pocket dimension but used the carriage as a cover to hide her powers from others. Otherwise, the seeds from Su Teng Village would arouse suspicion.

Meanwhile, Lan Ruozhu received news that his sister and the two Sacrificials had entered the prefecture. He was ecstatic and wished to run to her. However, he remembered still needing to be in disguise.

The prefecture guards had already received his instructions. When Su Binglan arrived at the prefecture’s entrance, they quickly let her through. Soon after, Lan Ruozhu went to greet her, “Sister, you’re finally here.”

Lan Ruozhu had returned to the prefecture a few days after the Lantern Festival. He looked forward to his sister visiting the prefecture. He would only feel at ease when he saw Su Binglan was doing well.

“Brother, how are you? Are you tired or troubled by anything?” Su Binglan had visited the prefecture to help Lan Ruozhu settle some issues.

Lan Ruozhu felt her concern and felt warm, saying, “Don’t worry, Sister, it’s just a small issue. I’ m fine as long as you’re in good health.”

Lan Ruozhu was in good health now, and he could eat and sleep well. Besides handling government affairs, he also practiced martial arts. After finally finding his long-lost sister, Lan Ruozhu wanted to do everything he had planned to do before losing her.

He wanted to protect the people he cared about.

“Let me check your pulse.” Su Binglan said before noticing Lan Ruozhu’s excellent complexion. Still, she only felt at ease after checking his pulse.

Ads by Pubfuture Lan Ruozhu said, “You checked my pulse during the Lantern Festival. I was fine, right?”

Su Binglan countered, “That was then, but I need to check again.” Since she insisted, Lan Ruozhu could only look at her helplessly before stretching his wrist toward her.

“Brother, you’ve been seriously lacking sleep recently,” Su Binglan said after checking his wrist pulse.

Lan Ruozhu knew his sister was highly skilled in medicine. However, he did not expect her to know he had trouble sleeping just by taking his pulse. He cleared his throat and scratched his nose awkwardly.

Su Binglan noticed it and asked, “What are you worried about?”

Lan Ruozhu saw her severe expression and could only tell her, “It’s about the military funding and rations. Many soldiers had gotten severely injured in last year’s war, so we had no choice but to expand the army temporarily.

“We need a lot of money to pay the families of the injured and dead soldiers. We also need to expand the army again. We had enough time to prepare for the last war, but if we fight again soon, we’ll face even more ration problems.

“There were also snowstorms in several places in Dingzhou last winter. I had already tasked people to distribute food to the victims. Now, there’s not much food left here.’

Lan Ruozhu could not visit Su Teng Village in time for the New Year celebrations because he had to deal with these issues. He did not tell Su Binglan about it because he did not want her to worry.

After all, Lan Ruobing had sacrificed much for him. Now that she had reincarnated in Su Binglan and had a peaceful life, Lan Ruozhu did not want her to worry about such things.

Still, he knew he would risk facing his sister’s scolding if he avoided telling her about these issues. Since Su Binglan would find out about it sooner or later, he decided to tell her now.

Su Binglan frowned when she heard about it. She asked, “Did you increase the number of soldiers yet?”

Lan Ruozhu nodded, saying, “Yes, we have. We’ve also occupied all the areas from Dingzhou to the border. The border will be our territory, so you can do whatever you want there. I’ve already stationed troops there.”

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan was stunned. She had only mentioned occupying the border to her brother last year. She did not expect him to do it so quickly. Although it was barren and most kings did not like such areas, it could become a treasure if Su Binglan could develop it.

She sincerely praised Lan Ruozhu, “You’re amazing, Brother.”

Lan Ruozhu felt a sense of accomplishment. After some thought, he said, “Sister, the land from Dingzhou to the border is mainly saline-alkalized. It’s not suitable for crop growth. The nomads there often attack the border provinces. They will rob all the harvested grain there.

“Bandits and refugees occupy these places. It’ll take much effort to govern them. Since the kings and leaders dislike such places, they won’t waste resources and troops to fight for such territories.

“That’s why it was relatively easy for me to occupy that area. Still, 1 know how bright and intelligent you are. Since you said such places are beneficial, then surely you’ll make them beneficial.”

Su Binglan confidently said, “Don’t worry, Brother. I will make these lands some of the wealthiest out there. By then, we’ll have to build defensive walls at the perimeters. Anyone who wants to seize what we have will only be wasting their time.’

At that moment, she knew what her brother had used the silver for. Indeed, it was challenging to raise an army. The military funds were sufficient for a short period, not in the long run.

After some thought, Su Binglan said, “You don’t have to worry. Since there’s no war now, the idle soldiers can work the fields and plant crops. After all, spring is coming soon.

“There are so many wastelands and saline-alkalized lands from Dingzhou to Bianzhou. We can let the local officials register and distribute these lands. Each soldier will have an acre’s worth.

“We can also distribute seeds and arrange for people to teach everyone how to grow vegetables and food.”@@novelbin@@

Most thought crop growth on saline-alkalized land was simply impossible, but not Su Binglan. Her pocket dimension had vegetables and crop seeds that were especially suited for growing in saline-alkalized land.

“We can give the soldiers shifts for farming and guarding the border. That way, some can tend to the crops while the rest stand guard.”

Lan Ruozhu nodded and clapped, saying, “You’re brilliant, Sister. That’s a perfect idea. When we do that, the soldiers can defend the city while cultivating crops. They can be a self- sufficient army by eating the food they grow and selling the extra for funds.”

The soldiers under Lan Ruozhu’s care would not starve if they could harvest their own food. Then, the army would be prepared for any war.

Lan Ruozhu asked, “Sister, can we build a factory here and hire the locals to

work there? That way, everyone can live and work in peace while generating profits..”

Lan Ruozhu grew increasingly excited as he discussed things with Su Binglan. She had provided him with an idea, and he devised a solution.

Su Binglan noticed her brother’s excitement and smiled, saying, “You’re right. The climate and soil differ everywhere, so the things we produce differ, too, We can build factories to produce products based on the local conditions.

“l found a large area of hawthorn in the Black Mountain Forest at the border province. We can use them to make cakes, candy, and other snacks. We can also produce fresh milk and make cheese there.”

Su Binglan always had many food ideas. If she could implement them, the food culture of this era would continuously advance, and the commoners could eat various fresh foods.

“That’s perfect!” Lan Ruzhu clapped excitedly.

“Don’t get too excited, Brother. I still have plenty of arrangements to make,”

Su Binglan said helplessly.

“Yes, of course. I’ll help you with whatever I can, Sister.”

Lan Ruozhu had just eaten lunch, but he became hungry again after listening to his sister talk about food. He could imagine the place he governed to be the most prosperous of all with its delicacies.

Lan Ruozhu’s heart raced as he thought of it. He wanted to show off his skills immediately. Still, Su Binglan knew more about agriculture than him. She could not help but laugh when she saw her brother’s excitement.

Su Binglan was happy to see her brother become more proactive after he recovered. She said mysteriously, “Brother, maybe there’s silver and iron ore hidden in these places.”

Ads by Pubfuture Lan Ruozhu was stunned. “Did you notice any?”

“Not yet.” Su Binglan shook her head. “l might discover something if I have time to inspect these places.”

She had passed certain places along her journey to Dingzhou from the border. She felt some mountain ranges were somewhat peculiar and suspected there were mineral deposits inside.

However, she was in a hurry to reach her brother and did not stop to investigate those areas. Still, she had a hunch about the mineral deposits. If she used her spiritual energy to probe these areas, she should be able to see if her suspicions were correct.

Lan Ruozhu held Su Binglan’s hands in excitement and almost burst into tears. He was proud to have a sister like her. Now, the two could solve many problems in one go.

If there were indeed silver mines in these mountain ranges, the siblings would have a large amount of it. With food and silver, Lan Ruozhu could feel more troops, and it would be easier to become king.

“l believe you will find out soon enough, Sister, but don’t pressure yourself.

Remember that I’m here for you.”

“There’s no pressure at all, Brother.” Su Binglan also wanted to help her brother in return.

The siblings had a long, secret conversation in the study. When afternoon arrived, Lan Ruozhu arranged for his trusted general, Ji Xingye, and a few guards to stay by Su Binglan’s side.

They helped to inspect some of the rural land around the prefecture. There were large amounts of abandoned land in the towns and villages beside Dingzhou Prefecture City.

After two days of observation, Su Binglan made plans for Ji Xingye. The latter had a strange feeling when he saw Su Binglan. He felt as if he was looking at

Lan Ruobing instead.

The princess had raised him and many others to help her brother.

Ads by Pubfuture Furthermore, these people were loyal to the deceased royal’s mansion.

Lan Ruozhu had told Ji Xingye to listen to Su Binglan’s orders, but he felt slightly doubtful. Perhaps he even distrusted Su Binglan. After two days of working beside her, Ji Xingye’s opinion of Su Binglan changed.

The latter was highly knowledgeable, and Ji Xingye could not help but admire her. He also felt Su Binglan resembled Lan Ruobing whenever he spoke to her.

Su Binglan said, “Count the number of soldiers stationed in the prefecture and divide them into three groups. They will take turns resting or doing fieldwork.’

Ji Xingye was stunned to hear that. ‘Is she rotating them?’

The soldiers would train for a month and might be unable to rest even once. Most of the time, they would stay in the military camp. Even the patrolling soldiers would be on constant patrols.

Dingzhou was not the only place like this, but the armies of various places were, too. Ji Xingye wondered why Su Binglan would want to change their routine. Moreover, Lan Ruozhu trusted her and seemed to agree with her arrangements.

Su Binglan was unaware of Ji Xingye’s thoughts at that moment. She continued, “Every soldier and their family will receive five acres of land. 1 will distribute seeds and teach them how to plant and harvest them.

“Gather teams of five, twenty, and a hundred. You can also assign a leader for each team. Everyone will have a strict code. If anything happens, it’ll compromise the team.”

Su Binglan did that to prevent spies from sneaking into the teams. It was also to help them supervise each other.

“I will build a factory around here. Whichever soldier’s family performs well will receive priority to work in the factory with monthly salaries and bonuses. However, those who perform poorly will be fired immediately. Such interest binding will prevent people from rebelling.”

Ji Xingye grew increasingly astounded as he listened. Indeed, such a management method was stringent, and Ji Xingye would not have to worry about the soldiers misbehaving.

Of course, the families of the soldiers stationed in Dingzhou could only stay for the convenience of control.

Su Binglan continued, “I’ve taken a look around and found many fruit trees in the mountains of this village. I can use those fruits to make fruit juice. So, I can build a juice and fruit canning factory here.” @@novelbin@@

She also realized most of the villagers only stayed idle at home. They seemed to have no jobs and were malnourished. However, this place would prosper if she could revitalize its economy.

To do that, she had to help these people earn money first. She would create job opportunities for everyone, and they could buy daily necessities.

Ji Xingye had read many books as Lan Ruobig taught him prior to her death. He quickly understood what Su Binglan’s intentions and his eyes widened in excitement..

The soldiers would significantly benefit if they followed Su Binglan’s methods. Then, they might no longer need to rely on military pay to live. The soldiers could earn extra income, and their families would have jobs.

Many soldiers did not have much to eat even after receiving a retirement pension. There were also family members of soldiers who had sacrificed their lives. Those who were not capable could not eat their fill.

It was as Su Binglan said. Everyone could eat their fill and wear warm clothes if the village prospered.

They could work while they were young and robust to earn money. Then, they could use the money to help their families. They might even become wealthy.

Many soldiers only had one thought when they first joined the army, and it was to not starve to death. At least they had some food in the military camp. Everyone just wanted to survive.

Ji Xingye looked at Su Binglan excitedly. He said, “I thank you on the soldiers’ behalf, Miss Su.’

Ji Xingye knew Su Binglan was the prince’s adopted sister, making her resemble a princess. However, she wanted to keep a low profile and not announce it to the public.

He knew to be respectful to Su Binglan and felt she possessed a similar righteousness and compassion as Lan Ruobing.

Su Binglan said, “No need to thank me. I’ve also opened a factory in Su Teng Village and plan to hire a group of people from the family members of retired soldiers to work there.

Ads by Pubfuture “You can count the number of soldiers who had to retire due to severe injuries. Also, tally the families of the soldiers who have perished. Jot down all the details of these families and give me a copy.”

“Yes, Miss Su!” Ji Xingye excitedly replied. He knew this would mean his soldiers’ safety.

Even if some of them had sacrificed themselves, someone was around to care for their families. Lan Ruozhu had done his best for these soldiers, but there were too many generals. He felt powerless, even if he wanted to help more. Nonetheless, everyone would benefit as long as they followed Su Binglan.

When Ji Xingye returned, he called his two subordinates and asked them to tabulate the statistics. “Miss Su is being considerate of everyone. She says we should split everyone into groups.”

” Right away, sir!”

The soldiers were shocked and in disbelief when they heard Ji Xingye’s words.

“Did I misshear?”

“General Xingye said it himself. How could you have misheard him?”

“Isn’t Princess Lan Ruobing already—”

“Hush! You cannot speak so haphazardly. Miss Su is Prince Ruozhu’s adopted sister. It’s good that she cares for us.”

“Miss Su is one of the commoners. She understands commoners better and is willing to help everyone. She’s an excellent princess.”

Most felt grateful when they heard the news.

Ads by Pubfuture “When we’re busy during the farming season, we’ll take turns resting and farming. I heard the yields of grain the higher-ups distribute will be very high.”

“Don’t forget about the factory. Our families will benefit if we remain loyal to Prince Ruobing. Those who work in the factory can earn about two hundred copper a month. The bonus is more than the salary, so we might earn one to two silver a month.

“l heard there’s a tofu factory in Su Teng Village. Those who work there received a ten silver bonus for the New Year’s celebrations.’

“Where did you hear that from?”

“One of my aunts who married a Su Teng villager told me that when she came home during the first lunar month. My mother felt tempted to move there, but she was worried about me and stayed here.” @@novelbin@@

“So it’s true.”

Everyone grew increasingly excited as they chatted.

“The prince also said the families of the soldiers will receive special care. The new factory will give priority to these people. It’s also a guarantee for everyone.”

Most became emotional as they chatted with each other. Some could not control their emotions, and tears fell. It was easy for soldiers to develop camaraderie because they had experienced life-threatening scenarios together.

They would never forget their comrades who had sacrificed their lives during the war. If possible, the soldiers wanted everyone to live with peace and prosperity.

The soldiers remembered Lin Erishi being only sixteen when he joined the military. He joined because his family did not have enough to eat. He was always talkative and would tell many exciting stories.

He saved his monthly salary and gave it to his mother, elder brother, sister-in-law, and nephew.

Ads by Pubfuture Lin Ershi’s elder brother had gotten severely injured on the battlefield but was lucky enough to survive. However, Lin Ershi could do nothing about it except join the army.

However, the other soldiers saw him getting shot down by an enemy’s arrow. Many more soldiers experienced such things. Those who were lucky to continue living felt their hearts ache for their fallen comrades.

Now that Su Binglan had started implementing her plans, it would help these soldiers live better lives. At that moment, the soldiers wanted to do their best to protect Dingzhou and be loyal to the prince.

Su Binglan knew nothing about their conversations as she was busy planning and arranging farming matters. Still, it was not yet time for spring farming. She looked at the climate and soil here, knowing she could plant crops in advance.

The seeds in her pocket dimension were also highly adaptable to the environment.

Su Binglan busied herself all night. During breakfast the following day, she gave a blueprint to her brother.

“What’s this, Sister?”

“That’s a blueprint for a farming tool. It can significantly reduce everyone’s labor when farming.”

In modern times, people used machines to sow seeds during farming. However, machines did not exist in the ancient era, and the people only used ancient weapons such as spears and arrows.

Su Binglan tried her best to design a convenient and labor-saving farming tool to make it easier for everyone to farm. She remembered her parents pulling ropes with all their might when plowing during the spring harvest.

The Su family did not have cows or bison at that time, either. Shen Qiuhua and Su Fengmao would be exhausted every night. She even remembered seeing strangulation wounds on her father’s shoulders. That was why Su Binglan knew how difficult it was for everyone.

“I’ll get someone to forge it immediately,” Lan Rouzhu said while looking at the blueprint.

Su Binglan asked, “Do you have a large weapon-forging factory?”

Immediately after, she thought of something and added, “It’s better to open one that specializes in producing farming tools. We can sell them at more affordable prices to villagers.”

Lan Ruozhu said, “l can see how much you love the people. I’m sincerely proud to have such a kindhearted and capable sister like you.”

Su Binglan smiled. “I can tell you care for them, too.”

She knew her brother had been working hard for his people and had done much for them. The commoners agreed that he was an excellent prince..

“That’s because I can accomplish more with you around,” Lan Ruozhu said with a gentle smile.

The siblings talked for a while more and discussed other things. After eating his fill, Lan Ruozhu said, “I’ll get someone to send this blueprint to the Weapon Refinement Department.”

“Brother, I think it’s better to hire the villagers to build the factory. Then, we can hire blacksmiths to forge the farming tools in the factory. They can take in apprentices and teach them how to forge, too.

“We can even forge weapons, but 1 should run the factory. If their skills improve, they can secretly forge weapons.”

Lan Ruozhu agreed with his sister, saying, “I’ll get Blue One to handle it.”

Blue one had been with Lan Ruozhu the whole time, and the latter had assigned Blue one a mission. Blue One had experience in management, so Lan Ruozhu trusted him to build the factory.

Su Binglan gave Blue One the factory’s blueprint. Next, he could hire the villagers to do the work.

Soon after, a guard reported that General Xingye had returned. Lan Ruozhu said smilingly, “Sister, he must be here for you.”

Su Binglan had brought Ji Xingye around these past two days, and he had learned a lot from her.

Ads by Pubfuture Lan Ruozhu added, “But he doesn’t know you’re Lan Ruobing.”

The princess had raised and taught Ji Xingye everything. Thus, he was also loyal to Lan Ruozhu.

Su Binglan shook her head and said, “Not many people know.”

Lan Ruozhu responded, “Only Blue One and I know.”

Su Binglan said, “He’s probably here about the task I had given him. Let him

”

Ji Xingye entered with dark circles under his eyes. Even so, he looked excited. “Greetings, Prince Ruozhu.”

“Stand, General Xingye,” Lan Ruozhu said, “Why are you here so early in the morning? I’ve never seen you so tired yet excited.”

Ji Xingye handed a stack of documents to Su Binglan, saying, “Here’s the information I sorted last night.”

Su Binglan looked at detailed documents containing information on the severely injured and soldiers who had died in battle. Her heart grew heavy as she read the words. She said, “Thank you for your hard work, General Xingye.”

“It was all for you, Princess. You’ve helped us a lot, so we should work hard for you in return. Those are the soldiers who have gotten severely injured and those who have sacrificed themselves in last year’s war.”

Su Binglan said, “I’ll visit a few families first to see the situation. I’ll get Su Yi and Su Chun to accompany me to a few houses.”

Ads by Pubfuture Ji Xingye volunteered, saying, “Princess, please allow me to come with you.”

Lan Ruozhu nodded and whispered to Su Binglan, “That’s good too. Binglan, not everyone knows your identity, so Xingye’s presence will give your words credibility.”

After some thought, Su Binglan agreed. If a general like Ji Xingye followed her, she would have had an easier time convincing people of her plans. Otherwise, the villagers would just think she was a liar.

“General Xingye, have you eaten breakfast?” Su Binglan asked.

Ji Xingye realized he was so excited that he had forgotten to have breakfast. He did not even rest much last night because he had been busy preparing the documents.

He wanted to complete the task the princess had given him as soon as possible. Ji Xingye was embarrassed to speak up, so he remained silent.

However, Su Binglan immediately understood his thoughts, saying, “Brother, could you get someone to get another bowl of wontons for General Xingye?”

Ji Xingye dared not eat at the deceased royal’s mansion, so he hurriedly waved and said, “N-No need, Princess. I’m not hungry.” Immediately after saying that, his stomach growled.

Croak!

Ji Xingye was so embarrassed that he wished to hide in a hole. Lan Ruozhu laughed and said, “It’s okay, General Xingye. You should feel at home here. Come, join us, and have something to eat. I remember eating together when we were young, don’t you?”

Ji Xingye was still a child back then and understood very little. He would only listen to whatever Lan Ruobing said.

The wontons Su Binglan brought were the frozen ones she had prepared before leaving for Dingzhou. She had placed them in her pocket dimension before bringing them over.

Ads by Pubfuture That morning, she simply fried them in a pot, which was convenient for her. Lan Ruozhu enjoyed his sister’s cooking so much that he could not stop smiling.

Ji Xingye thought the prince had an excellent smile. However, the latter rarely smiled when Su Binglan was not around. Hence, Ji Xingye knew how important Su Binglan was to the prince.@@novelbin@@

Still, Ji Xingye was puzzled because Lan Ruobing was just as important to the prince.

‘Since Princess Ruobing is no longer around, why would Prince Ruozhu adopt Miss Su as his younger sister?’

Ji Xingye’s mind was a mess, but he could not explain it. Soon after, one of the maids served a bowl of wontons to Ji Xingye. The food was still hot and emitted an enticing fragrance.

“Come and eat,” Lan Ruozhu said, “That’s an order, General Xingye.”

Since it was an order, Ji Xingye dared not disobey. He walked over and carefully sat down with Su Binglan and Lan Ruozhu. However, Ji Xingye only sat on half of the chair, not daring to disrespect the siblings.

Indeed, Ji Xingye was hungry. He was stunned when he scooped the soup and ate a wonton.

‘l never knew this would be so delicious! I don’t know what the filling is, but it tastes excellent.’

Ji Xingye seemed to forget his manners and hoovered the food. Although the second wonton he ate had a different filling, it was equally delicious.

‘Whoa! It’s too delicious!’ He screamed inwardly.

He was always strict with himself and was grateful as long as he could eat his fill. Since he was never good at cooking, he would eat crudely. He was also frugal and disliked going to restaurants to eat. As a result, he did not eat much tasty foods.

Of course, he had eaten well in the deceased royal’s mansion when he followed Lan Ruobing. Nonetheless, the wontons were so flavorful that a tear almost rolled down his cheek.

Lan Ruozhu saw him eating so quickly, saying, “Take your time, General. There’s still more in the pot.”

He was generous toward his trusted subordinates. Although his sister had prepared the wontons for him, he was happy to see his subordinate eating with excitement.

Lan Ruozhu asked, “Does it taste good?”

Ji Xingye nodded frantically, saying, “It’s too delicious, Your Highness! The soup is so tasty, and the wonton fillings are different. I’ve never had anything like this..

Ji Xingye sipped his soup and felt a comfortable warmth in his stomach. After finishing the entire bowl of wonton soup, he burped and sighed in satisfaction. He was so focused on the food that he forgot to be polite in front of the prince.

“That’s a dish my sister made,” Lan Ruozhu said with a smile, “l think it’s delicious, too.’

He was delighted that people thought Su Binglan’s food was delicious. One would be even happier when tasting food with others.

‘What? The princess cooked the meal?’

Ji Xingye was stunned and quickly stood up, saying, “l didn’t know Her

Majesty cooked this dish.”

Su Binglan saw him bowing nervously. She said, “Stand straight, General Xingye. There’s no reason to bow. I made these delicacies for everyone to eat. Besides, you’ve shown your appreciation by complimenting my cooking.

“I’ll get someone to bring you more wontons if you like it so much. You can cook them in a pot and eat them whenever you want.”

Ads by Pubfuture Su Binglan’s kindness touched Ji Xingye. He had a strong feeling that she was Lan Ruobing because she treated him just as well in the past. Still, the soup was so delicious that he did not know what else to say. “Thank you, Princess.” Lan Ruozhu added, “I’ll get someone to bring you some meat buns, too,

General Xingye. ”

“Th-thank you very much, Your Majesty!’

Lan Ruozhu then said, “It’s a delicacy my sister has been researching. You can reheat them in a pot whenever you’re hungry. It’ll be better than the food you usually eat.

He enjoyed his sister’s cooking and was willing to share it with his loyal subordinates.

Although Ji Xingye did not sleep much last night, he felt more energetic now. Thus, he followed Su Binglan to visit the soldiers’ relatives, even though he had dark circles under his eyes.

“East Hill Village is the closest one, so let’s go there and visit Lin Ershi’s house first.’

According to information Su Binglan received, Lin Ershi was only fifteen when he died in battle. If they were in the modern world, he would still be in high school.

Moreover, he had an older brother who was also a soldier. Unfortunately, he had gotten severely injured and had to retire. Su Binglan wondered how the family was doing. She sighed as she entered East Hill Village on the carriage.

It was not time for spring plowing, but the weather was getting warmer. Hence, many villagers gathered in twos and threes to chat. Although they had nothing much to do, it was not by choice.

Since most had no jobs, they liked sitting on stools and basking in the sun while chatting. Of course, they would sit on their warm, heated brick beds at home and chat if it rained or snowed. However, everyone in the village looked malnourished.

“l saw someone coming to the barren land in the north two days ago. I wonder why they came.”

Ads by Pubfuture “Yeah, the soil on those wastelands isn’t ideal. If they plan on planting crops there, it won’t end well. It’s a waste of effort.”

“We’re doing pretty good in Dingzhou. Prince Ruozhu has treated us well and even reduced our taxes. When it snowed heavily last year, he gave us food.”

“At least we didn’t starve or freeze to death. Still, I pity the Lin family since they’re having a harder time.”

The chatting commoners could not help but sigh when someone mentioned the Lins. The old lady raised her two sons with incredible difficulty. It was also almost time for one of her sons to get married.

The Lins did not have much savings when the eldest son decided to join the army. After all, he would get paid for joining. Afterward, he used the money to marry his wife, who was a capable woman.

When she had her child, her husband got severely injured during a battle. He had broken his leg on the battlefield, and the wounds on his body hurt even more whenever the weather became too cold.

Later, Lin Ershi joined the army to help finance his family. However, no one expected him to die in battle because he was so young. Old Madam Lin soon fell ill.

The family used their remaining silver to treat her illness and her eldest son’s leg, but it was pointless. The villagers wanted to help the family but could not.

Things would have been better if they could harvest more food.

Still, no one in the village had enough to share. During last year’s snow disaster, Lan Ruozhu arranged for his men to distribute food to the villagers to survive the winter.

“Lin Ershi joined the army without telling his family.”

“He was a kind and dutiful child.”

Ads by Pubfuture Soon, everyone realized the heft of the topic, so they changed it.

“l heard the Li family has already decided on a woman for their son, but the woman’s family suddenly went back on their word.”

“Although the Li family’s youngest son is handsome, the situation in this village is not ideal. That’s why the woman was hesitant.”

“Hmph, we won’t tolerate such people when our village prospers. Everyone will fight to be a part of our village then.”

While everyone chatted, someone suddenly said, “Look, a carriage.”

“But our village is in such a remote area. Why is there a carriage here?”

“That can’t be someone’s relative, right? We would know if anyone here has a wealthy relative.”

“Look beside the carriage. Isn’t that the Great General?”@@novelbin@@

“Why is General Xingye in East Hill Village?”

The commoners were still afraid of the officers and soldiers, especially a noble general like Ji Xingye. No one dared to continue their discussions and simply looked at him.

If it were not for the fact the carriage was carrying things, Su Binglan would have ridden inside it. The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Lins e house under the villagers’ watchful eyes.

Ji Xingye knocked on the door and asked, “Is Old Madam Lin Home?”

Su Binglan looked at the polite Ji Xingye and nodded. Although he had become a general, he did not think highly of himself. Su Binglan stood at the door and could smell the medicine wafting from the inside. It seemed someone inside was taking medicine.

Soon after, a seven-year-old boy came to the door and asked, “Hello, sir. Are you looking for my grandmother?”

The little boy was timid but tried his best to speak fluently. Su Binglan’s heart softened when she saw the boy before her. She squatted and asked, “We’re here to see your parents and grandmother. Are they home?”

She passed him a piece of hawthorn candy as she spoke, “Here, this is for you.”

The boy looked at the candy and felt a little envious. However, he shook his head and said, “No, thank you, miss. My grandmother and father are home, but my mother went to the mountain to gather firewood..”

The boy’s voice was crisp and clear. His almond-shaped eyes caused Su Binglan’s heart to soften. Moreover, the boy looked thin, and she could tell he was malnourished. Her heart ached for him.

Just then, someone came out with a walking stick. “Xiaoxi, who’s there?”

Lin Yishi struggled to come out. When Lin Xiaoxi saw his father, he threw down his ladle and said, “Be careful, Father. There’s a beautiful lady and a man at the door.’

Lin Xiaoxi was sensible, even though he was a child. He knew to support his father so that he would not fall. He was scooping water to wash the vegetables when Su Binglan arrived.

Although he was only seven, he knew how to do many things. He fed the chickens, washed the vegetables, and made a fire.

Lin Yishu patted his son’s head and said, “All right, I’ll greet them.”

He was stunned when he looked out the door and saw General Ji Xingye. The former thought he was hallucinating, stuttering, “G-General Xingye.” Since Lin Yishi was only a soldier in the military camp, he had no direct contact with Ji Xingye. However, he knew the general often watched them train at the military grounds.

Ji Xingye stepped forward and said, “You’re injured, soldier. Don’t force yourself to walk. Here, let me help you in.”

Lin Yishi observed Ji Xingye’s uniform and knew he was indeed the general. “Greetings, General Xingye.”

Ads by Pubfuture He excitedly motioned to bow. After all, the general held a high position in the military. Still, Lin Yishi wondered why such a person would visit him.

Ji Xingye said, “There’s no need to bow. I’m here with Her Highness to visit you.”

‘Her Highness?!’ Lin Yishi was shocked.

At that moment, Su Binglan entered the house and asked Su Yi and Su Chun to move the things down from the carriage. She said, “Young Master Yishi, these are the things Prince Ruozhu sent you. We’re here on his behalf.”

Su Binglan name-dropped her brother when doing these things. Lin Yishi felt touched when he heard her words.

Lan Ruozhu had always cared for the commoners and the soldiers. The people knew and loved the prince from the bottom of their hearts. However, Lin Yishi was in a daze as he looked at Su Binglan.

‘That girl looks like an angel. Wait, didn’t Princess Ruobing pass away? Is it possible that she didn’t die and has become Princess Binglan?’

A simple soldier like Lin Yishi had never met Lan Ruobing, so he did not know what she looked like. He was puzzled about certain things, but it was inconvenient for him to ask.

Lin Yishi could only stare at Su Binglan blankly while she brought in a few bags of rice and flour. He was so excited that his hands began to tremble. He knew he would have enough food for his family now that Su Binglan was here.

Although Lin Yishi cared little about himself, he wanted his mother, wife, and son to eat their fill. His eyes reddened as he said, “Thank you, Your Highness and General Xingye.”

“No need to be so polite,” Su Binglan said, “You’re a soldier who has served

and protected the country. You deserve all this.”

Ads by Pubfuture She always had more respect for those who served the country. She could see Lin Yishi’s gratefulness just by observing his expression. He had become more sensitive since getting injured. Hence, he felt the princess’s respect for him.

Lin Yishi almost failed to suppress his tears. He never expected people to remember his sacrifices, but the prince, princess, and general would never.

Ji Xingye sympathized with the soldiers. He gently patted Lin Yishi’s shoulder, and the former’s gesture was more effective than words.

At that moment, Old Madam Lin overheard the conversation. She coughed and asked, “Yishi, is someone here?”

“We have guests, Mother,” Lin Yishi responded and then told the other two, “My mother’s in the room. She’s unwell and can’t come to welcome you. I’m terribly sorry. Please, come in. I’ll get you some water.”

“Is your mother sick?” Su Binglan asked.

“Unfortunately, yes. My mother fell ill when she heard what happened to my brother last year. It was pretty terrible.” Lin Yishi’s eyes brimmed with sadness as he spoke.

However, Lin Yishi knew he should not cry, no matter how much pain he felt, because he was a man. He still had to work hard to support his family. His mother would be even sadder if he showed his emotions. Ji Xingye asked, “Have you visited a doctor?”

Lin Yishi sighed, saying, “Yes, we have, but he said…”@@novelbin@@

He could not continue and choked up instead. Su Binglan and Ji Xingye understood his frustration. Su Binglan said, “I know medicine. Let me take a look at your mother.”

Lin Yishi’s eyes lit up when he heard that. “Y-Your Highness… You…know medicine?”

He was so excited that his voice trembled. Meanwhile, Ji Xingye was in disbelief, thinking, ‘The princess knows medicine?! So she’s excellent at cooking and has medical skills. She’s amazing!’

Ads by Pubfuture Ji Xingye was fascinated because he heard that Su Binglan came from the countryside.

After hearing Su Binglan’s words, Lin Yishi returned to his senses and said, “I apologize, Your Highness. I didn’t mean to doubt you. I… I just…”

He felt he had misspoken and became afraid. However, Su Binglan waved it off and said, “Don’t worry. Yes, I do know medicine, so I can take a look at your mother if you’d like.”

Lin Yishi was stunned when he heard Su Binglan’s gentle voice. He was surprised that she had a good temperament and did not scold him for doubting her.

“Father, here’s some water.” Lin Xiaoxi placed a few cups on the table.

Lin Yishi hurriedly said, “Your Highness, General, please have some water.”

Su Binglan thought of her two nephews back home when she looked at Lin Xiaoxi. Her heart raced as she said, “Your name is Xiaoxi, right? You can go and play while we chat with your father, okay?”

Lin Xiaoxi liked the young lady before him, especially when she smiled at him. He thought she was polite and gentle.

Su Binglan passed him some sweets, saying, “Here, you can eat these.”

Lin Xiaoxi looked at the candies and wanted to accept them. However, he first looked up at his father before doing so. Lin Yishi became emotional as he said, “Go ahead.’

Lin Xiaoxi took the candies and said sweetly, “Thank you, Pretty Sister.”

“You’re too cute, Xiaoxi,” Su Binglan responded.

Lin Xiaoxi blushed after receiving her compliment.

Soon after, Su Binglan entered the inner room to check on Old Madam Lin. The older woman had fallen asleep again. After checking Old Madam Lin’s pulse, Su Binglan frowned and gathered her silver needles for acupuncture.

Su Binglan told Lin Yishi, “I need to remove your mother’s coat so that I can do the diagnosis.”

“What kind of treatment is it, Your Highness?”

“It’s acupuncture. Don’t worry, okay? I’m confident I can cure your mother.” Su Binglan knew Lin Yishi was suspicious about her medical skills. Still, she was a princess, and he could not disobey her.

Thus, Su Binglan offered him some reassurance. Lin Yishi was so excited that he motioned to kneel before her, but Ji Xingye hurriedly stopped him..

After removing Old Madam Lin’s coat, Su Binglan began to perform acupuncture. She even used her spirit qi acupuncture method so that the older woman would quickly recover.

Su Binglan discreetly took a bottle of medicine from her pocket dimension after the acupuncture. Then, she said, “Your mother will be asleep for a while. Ensure she takes this medicine three times a day. She’ll be better in no time. “However, you must allow her to recuperate after she recovers. You must also reassure her and rejuvenate her spirit. We don’t want her to be depressed. Tell your son to spend more time with her and tell her that you need her.”

Lin Yishi listened to Su Binglan’s instructions carefully. He said, “Thank you, Your Highness.”@@novelbin@@

He would have knelt if Ji Xingye did not stop him again.

When the trio returned to the living room, Su Binglan and Ji Xingye drank some water before Su Binglan asked, “Yishi, your wife is at the mountain gathering firewood, correct?”

Lin Yishi sighed and said, ‘Yes, Your Highness. She has to do these things all because of my injury.”

He blamed himself and felt sad that his wife had to work so hard. Still, he could do nothing much to help. Lin Yishi could only help feed the chickens and cook.

Fortunately, his wife was virtuous and never complained, while his son was obedient.

Su Binglan said, “You sacrificed much for the people, Yishi. They will always remember what you did for them.”

Suddenly, she thought of giving him a medal of honor. She wanted those who had greatly contributed to the country to have this medal, which signified one’s sacrifices.

She would also build a memorial hall for the commoners to visit and learn about the soldiers’ dedication to the country. However, Su Binglan had other things to do for now and would plan a memorial hall later.

Ads by Pubfuture She went straight to the point, saying, “I’m building a paper mill and printing factory in Su Teng Village. I want to hire family members of the soldiers who have sacrificed their lives on the battlefield.

“My employees will have a free staff dormitory to live in and a cafeteria to eat from. I will also subsidize the food, so it’ll cost less. You will receive a monthly salary of a hundred and eighty copper and a commission bonus.

“Our paper sales will be excellent, so your bonus should be substantial. I give the employees in my other shops one to two silver a month as bonuses. Your working hours will be five days, and then you will have two rest days. You’ll work for three and a half hours daily.

“l visited you today to ask for your opinions on this matter. Don’t worry. You can speak your mind if you have doubts.”

Su Binglan’s words resembled a thunderclap to Lin Yishi. He was so shocked and excited that his hands trembled as he looked at Su Binglan.

‘Did I mishear Her Highness?! It’s too good to be true. The salary is so high, yet I only need to work for three and a half hours for five days?’

Lin Yishi would not have believed it if someone else were to tell him this. He knew people would fight to have such an excellent job opportunity.

Lin Yishi pinched himself. He could not help but stutter, “I-Is…that true, Your Highness?”

‘If we had two silver a month, it would be more than what we typically harvest in a year. My family can eat their fill by relying on my basic salary, and I can save my bonuses for them.’

Su Binglan also said that the employees could eat in a cafeteria at subsidized prices.

Su Binglan added, “Children can also attend Blue Mountain Academy for free.” Although Lan Ruobing had established the renowned school, Su Binglan and her brother ran it. Every student could attend Blue Mountain Academy for free if Lan Ruozhu deemed it so.

Lin Yishi became teary-eyed as a tear rolled down his cheek. He never expected such treatment just because he was once a soldier. Indeed, Lan Ruozhu had never forgotten about his soldiers.

Su Binglan’s generosity even moved Ji Xingye. He knew the princess possessed a benevolent and righteous heart.

If news of this spread, many more would want to join the army, even if Lan Ruozhu did not recruit more men. After all, those who served the country would receive such generous treatment, and their families would ultimately have better lives.

“If you have any thoughts, don’t hesitate to mention them to me. Your family can follow you, too. I’ll arrange a large dormitory for you and them to make it more convenient.”

Su Binglan had asked Su Xueye to build a few more residences for her employees. Therefore, she had enough accommodations for the soldiers to live in.

“You can choose to live in Su Teng Village or stay here. I’ll also be building a beverage factory and ironware factory, after all. Any other factories I build later will depend on the local conditions.”

If Su Binglan reclaimed the wastelands here, the soldiers could start planting crops for food. When there was more grain here, she could build a flour mill. The soldiers could put some into the granary and sell the rest.

Lin Yishi was so excited that he immediately wanted to agree. Still, he muttered, “I’ll wait for my wife to return and discuss it with her first.”

Su Binglan smiled, saying, “It’s only right for you to do that.”

Lin Yishi was surprised that she was so good-tempered, gentle, and easy to talk to.

Su Binglan realized he respected women and soon asked about his family’s situation. Lin Yishi told her that they only ate two meals a day. However, it was inconsistent because of the low yield of the land.

Moreover, his injury hindered the family’s well-being. After all, his wife could not do everything alone. Also, Old Madam Lin was sick, and he had to spend some money on her medical bills.

Su Binglan sighed. “We have consultation places in Su Teng Village, and the medicine there is much more affordable. It’s also convenient to buy daily necessities there.’

She told Lin Yishi about Su Teng Village’s development. The more he listened, the more excited he became. He wanted to visit the village immediately.

People from less fortunate families dared not get sick Even those with headaches and fever would refuse to visit doctors because medicine was too costly.

Lin Yishi did not expect Su Teng Village to offer free medical consultations. Even Ji Xingye was stunned and in disbelief.

‘Is Su Teng Village that advanced? I want to visit and take a look. If I weren’t a general, I’d want to live there for a while. Her Highness’s description of her village makes it sound like a beautiful place.

‘That’s right! Prince Ruozhu has visited Su Teng Village previously. No wonder he was hesitant to come back here. It seems Su Teng Village is as Her Highness says.’

It was already noon before the group realized it. Lin Yishi looked at the sky outside and said, “Your Highness, General Xingye, you can eat here if you don’t mind.’

Since it was already noon, he would feel bad if he did not offer lunch to Su Binglan and Ji Xingye. Even so, the family did not have much to cook with at home, so Lin Yishi felt embarrassed..
