A military camp on the outskirts.

As soon as he entered the camp, Feng Tu greeted him, "Princess, fifth master."

Seeing Feng Tu covering her mouth, Xia Jing smiled and asked, "What's wrong with your mouth? Are you angry?"

Feng Tu chuckled, and explained with his tongue out, "I'm hurt."

As he spoke, he pointed to the pile of firewood not far away, "Eating sugar cane, my tongue is rotten."

Xia Jing glanced at the distance, shook her head lightly, "Don't tell me, I really didn't notice it, I thought it was a pile of firewood."

When I saw the sugarcane, I remembered that the sugarcane is also in the harvest season.

Li Chengmu, who was beside him, explained patiently, "These sugar canes are the supplies our team seized from Annan. In fact, there is still a month or so before the real harvest, but time waits for no one, so we can only chop them up." , shipped back."

In fact, they feel that the sweetness is about the same, which makes them cheaper.

Xia Jing looked at the huge pile in front of her in surprise, "You brought this piece back from Annan?"

"More than that." Li Chengmu smiled and pointed to the location of the kitchen in the camp, "There are still a lot of sugarcane in the back. At first, the soldiers liked to chew on it, but gradually some people had problems with their mouths, so these sugarcanes were left. down."

If eating sugarcane does not cause oral problems, then walking and chewing all the way, there should not be much left when returning to Fucheng.

After all, tens of thousands of people eat sugar cane, and the amount consumed is still considerable.

After hearing what her son said, Xia Jing became interested, "Come on, let's go and see what this sugarcane looks like?"

I don't know the difference between the length, length and thickness of sugarcane that has not been improved in ancient times and that of later generations?
Li Chengmu quickly took a few steps to catch up with Xia Jing, and said enthusiastically: "Mother, I will let my son cut a piece for you later, so you can taste the sweetness of sugarcane."

Xia Jing waved her hand, showing respect and gratitude for gnawing on sugar cane, "My mouth really can't stand the thick fiber of sugar cane, I just need to gnaw a small piece, and my tongue will almost hurt."

Li Chengmu heard this, and asked with a smile: "Mother, have you ever eaten sugar cane before?"

"I've tasted it." Xia Jing didn't say much.

Xia Jing has seen sugar cane, and she looks slender, which may be the reason for the lack of fertilizers in ancient times.

"Transport these sugar canes to the northern workshop. There is a workshop next to the iron workshop, which is just used as a temporary sugar processing factory."

It was the first time Li Chengmu heard that sugarcane can be made into sugar, and asked in surprise: "Mother, you mean that these sugarcane can be made into sugar?"

"Yes, why haven't you heard of it?" Xia Jing also looked at her precious son in amazement.

Then think about the backwardness of transportation and information in ancient times, and Li Chengmu's education since he was a child made it impossible for him to understand craftsmen, and he understood.

Li Chengmu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's the first time I've heard, mother concubine, what should I do to make grain from sugarcane?"

Xia Jing suddenly found it funny, "As a mother, I don't know how to make sucrose, but there are many sugar-making masters here in Lingnan, so we can hire someone with a high salary to help us make sugar."

Li Chengmu nodded in agreement: "My concubine is right, we don't know how, as long as we have money, I'm afraid we won't be able to hire experienced masters!"

Xia Jing just smiled. In her notebook, she learned about sugar making in the end of the world class. There should be notes in the space, and she will look for it when she goes back.

Later, she wrote a letter to Ding Daqiang, asking him to help find the sugar maker and clean up the factory.

I came here today to prepare to go to sea again. The pirates who surrendered last time should be able to be pulled out to see the world after so many days of training.

It's just that the sugar cane in the camp was flooded, so I had to change the itinerary and deal with the sugar cane first.

However, without her going to sea, she can let the soldiers under her command go for a trip. After her sugar workshop is built and officially started, the fleet going to sea will almost return.

Then she will go to sea with them again.

It's a pity that I can't travel this time. Li Chengmu wanted to go out with the fleet, but Xia Jing refused his request.

Fighting by sea and land are completely different things, the sea is deep and unpredictable, Xia Jing is really worried if she doesn't follow.

This time, apart from the few sea-going ships rented from the Lan family, there are also four ships prepared by Xia Jing herself, which can carry more than 3000 people to sea, more than enough to deal with an overseas colony.

According to the information she collected, there were probably hundreds of Xiyi people gathered in Dongfan.

Although the Xiyi people controlled the local aborigines, Xia Jing sent troops, which was enough to deal with the Xiyi people from the east.

When Dongfan is snatched back, she can turn Dongfan into a food base, and even a transit point in the southeast sea.

After making arrangements to go to sea, Xia Jing left the medicinal materials and returned to Fucheng in a carriage.

Let's talk about the palace.

Ma'am, you get busy early in the morning.

The stewards took turns to report the situation of each place and receive the right cards, while the eldest lady responded calmly, as if the uncle's illness did not affect her much.

The managers everywhere saw that she was not angry and arrogant, and she was full of grandeur, and she didn't even dare to breathe when reporting the situation.

When things were almost settled, her personal servant girl hurried in from the outside.

The eldest lady looked at her, "What happened?"

The personal servant girl went to the lady's side and whispered: "The uncle is losing his temper again. He refused to eat breakfast after waking up, so he asked Madam to feed him."

The eldest lady heard the anger rising, and saw that there were still a lot of stewards in the room, so she could only hold back the anger forcefully, and waved the stewards to step back and do business first.

She leaned on the chair slumped, as if all the strength in her body had been exhausted. It was really frustrating to face a childish man all day long!

"Ma'am?" the servant girl called out worriedly.

The eldest lady supported her forehead, waved her hand lightly, and signaled the servant girl not to say more.

After a while, she raised her head, and her expression regained the arrogance of an arrogant lady, as if the decadent person just now was not her.

"Go, go back!"

The eldest lady stood up and walked out first.

The personal maid hurriedly followed.

Walking outside the courtyard, you can feel the scene of chickens and dogs jumping in the courtyard.

As soon as Da Furen stepped into the yard, she saw a tall humanoid creature rushing towards her.

The servant girl who was following behind was startled and made a defensive move, for fear that the eldest lady would be knocked down by him.

"Sister, why did you come here? They bullied me while you were away." Li Chengshang rubbed his arms around the eldest lady, and took the opportunity to sue.

The eldest lady took a few steps back from the collision before she stabilized her body. The smile on her face was a little stiff, and she patted him on the back: "Hey, why would they bully you? They just want you to eat, you tell sister. Sister, did you eat obediently?"

Li Chengshang pouted, and said aggrievedly: "The food they feed is not good, I want my sister to feed it."

The eldest lady took the opportunity to push him away, and after hearing what he said, she really wanted to rub her forehead, "Okay, sister come and hello!"

When Li Chengshang heard it, a big smile appeared on his face, "Oh! My sister is feeding me!"

After all, without waiting for others, he himself rushed into the room like a gust of wind.

The eldest lady then walked into the room, and Li Chengshang had obediently sat down at the table first, waiting for her to feed him.

The eldest lady fed the meal resignedly with a bowl, and looked at the obedient man, she sighed, "You always make me worry when you are normal, but now you are sick, you still make me worry, you said I was Didn't I owe you?"

Li Chengshang didn't seem to understand what she said, pointing to the meat on the table and shouting anxiously: "Meat, meat, I want to eat meat!"
