The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

After leaving Chang County, Gong Yu went to Jincheng.

The work here in Jincheng is particularly easy to do.

Magistrate Zhu of Jincheng had already been imprisoned by the men he had sent in advance.

Gong Yu then ordered his men to gather more evidence of Magistrate Zhu's crimes, and then had Magistrate Zhu escorted back to the capital.

However, he wasn't in a hurry to go back because he felt his future wife hadn't had enough fun yet.

Su Qianqian went to the outskirts of Jincheng.

Jincheng is different from Beijing; it has vast grasslands.

Many people raise cattle and sheep.

Seeing that Su Qianqian had been standing next to several cows for a long time, Gong Yu instructed Mo Xiaobei, "Go, buy all those cows. A few are not enough. Pick out more good cows and buy more."

I must buy you anything my future daughter-in-law likes.

Anyway, the Marquis's estate in the suburbs of Beijing is quite large, and he can still raise dozens of dairy cows.

Gong Yu held Su Qianqian's hand as they walked on the grass, and noticed that Su Qianqian was staring at the sheep again.

"Goat milk is easier to digest than cow milk."

Upon hearing this, Gong Yu knew that the girl was craving goat milk.

"Mo Xiaobei, go and pick out a few dozen sheep, the kind that can produce milk, and buy some rams too, so they can have lambs later."

Mo Xiaobei is very busy. Buying only dairy cows and sheep is definitely not enough. He also needs to buy dozens of trucks to transport these cows and sheep. Just thinking about it is spectacular.

Buying a car alone won't do; cows and sheep need to graze on the road.

Buy a few more truckloads of grass fodder to take with you.

Even that wasn't enough; we also needed to buy many more wooden buckets to collect cow's milk and goat's milk every day on the road.

Seeing that Su Qianqian really liked the grassland, Gong Yu suggested, "Let me take you to the grassland."

Mo Xiaobei was covered in cold sweat.

The young master truly dotes on Miss Su! He even wants to go to the grasslands.

Oh dear, so many cows and sheep, they must be so hard to take care of on the road.

We won't be able to finish all the milk produced each day, that would be terrible!

Su Qianqian shook her head. "Brother Gong, my father and mother are already on their way to the capital. We should go back now."

Moreover, they'll be investigating as they go, and it's likely they'll be bringing most of the local officials of the Great Qi Dynasty to the capital.

She has not yet encountered an honest official.

If we investigate further, the entire officialdom of the Great Qi Dynasty will be shaken up.

One should not be too radical in anything, otherwise it will backfire.

If there are too many changes in the officialdom of the Great Qi, it may allow the surrounding countries to take advantage of the situation.

Su Qianqian looked at the dozens of carts full of cattle and sheep.

Gong Yu would buy anything that she glanced at a few times. If they continued westward, she estimated that she would soon be able to buy enough goods to fill hundreds of carts.

Actually, Su Qianqian originally planned to secretly buy these cattle and sheep from farmers and store them in her spatial storage.

Now look what's happened, dozens of truckloads of cattle and sheep have been transported, it's really an eyesore.

Returning to the capital will definitely cause a sensation.

Those in the capital who dislike her will surely criticize the Crown Prince for not taking his duties to the court seriously and for only indulging in pleasure.

On the way back, they set up camp in Jinan, where all the guards learned how to milk cows and goats.

Soon, dozens of buckets of milk were placed in front of Su Qianqian.

Gong Yu finally praised Mo Xiaobei: "Xiaobei, you did a good job, knowing to buy so many wooden buckets in advance."

Mo Xiaobei is truly exhausted. For Your Highness's lifelong happiness, I have racked my brains.

He also had a book in his arms that taught people how to milk cows; the guards learned how to milk cows on the spot from his own experience.

Su Qianqian boiled the milk and shared it with the guards.

But they only drank one bucket; there are still dozens left.

She covered the bucket of milk with a clean cotton cloth, without adding anything, and let the milk ferment naturally.

Su Qianqian decided to stay where she was for two days, which would be a good time to arrange some matters related to the mining of coal in Quancheng.

A day and a half later, the milk in the bucket became thick.

Su Qianqian collected the milk skin from the bucket; this milk skin was a good ingredient for making butter and cream.

Pour the thick yogurt from under the milk skin into a pot and simmer over low heat, stirring constantly.

After a little over an incense stick's time, the milk in the pot coagulated into a tofu-like consistency.

Filter the cheese through a cloth, then press the curds obtained in the cloth into blocks, just like when making tofu. This is raw cheese.

Su Qianqian shared the raw cheese with everyone.

Everyone praised it highly.

This raw cheese is sweet and sour, refreshing, soft and bouncy, and has a rich milky flavor.

Su Qianqian put all the uneaten cheese into her spatial storage, which had a preservation function.

Before leaving the capital, Gong Yu had already informed His Majesty and recommended a new county magistrate for Quancheng, and His Majesty had agreed to it.

The new candidate was from the Zhang family of Qinghe County, and his name was Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi is the second son of the old patriarch of the Zhang family. He is over forty years old, has the title of Juren (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations), and is an upright person.

When Emperor Qi Jing raised funds last time, the Zhang family donated 80,000 taels of silver and obtained a civil official position of the eighth rank.

After discussion among the entire clan, the position of civil official was given to the second son of the old clan chief.

Unfortunately, Zhang Yi never got to fill a real position, which greatly troubled the old patriarch of the Zhang clan.

When you don't have an official position, you want one; once you have one, you have to spend money to use connections to get a substantive post.

Now the opportunity has finally arrived.

The patriarch of the Zhang family was overjoyed to learn that his son would be appointed as the magistrate of Quancheng.

He had previously donated silver to obtain this official position, but had been unemployed at home until now, when he finally had a real post.

Unexpectedly, even though Miss Su lost her military power, she was still very influential and accomplished great things quietly.

The old clan chief carefully instructed his son, "Son, remember this: never embezzle. Our Zhang clan is not short of money."

"Also, I heard that Miss Su sent a map with the location of the Black Stone Mine marked on it. When the mining of the Black Stone Mine is to be handled entirely by Miss Su's people, we will not ask for any share."

Zhang Yi agreed to all his father's instructions.

"Father, rest assured, this opportunity was given to me by Miss Su. I will do my best after I go there and will never let Miss Su down."

Murong Changyu and Murong Yan also found the Black Stone Mine in Maocheng, west of Jincheng.

Murong Yan felt quite regretful. If only she had returned from the Southern Yue Kingdom before Miss Su discovered the black coal.

"Brother, I told you long ago, if I had seen this black coal earlier, Miss Su wouldn't have had a chance."

This stuff is just coal from the world she lived in before she transmigrated; it's nothing special.

As a result, all the people who used black coal were extremely grateful to Miss Su.

Moreover, many people say that Miss Su was the first to discover black coal, and all black coal should be mined by Miss Su. What kind of logic is that?

Should the first person to discover gold possess all the gold in the world?

It feels like those people blindly worship the person surnamed Su.

Compared to Murong Yan's smugness, Murong Changyu did not seem very surprised.

He had inspected the site and found that the black stone mine was not as large as the one in Quancheng, and he also needed to discuss cooperation with the magistrate of Maocheng County.

The imperial court now stipulates that the black stone mines in each jurisdiction shall be mined by the local officials themselves, but they shall pay a certain amount of tax to the imperial court.

Therefore, if you cooperate with the county magistrate, he will definitely take a large cut of your profits.

In the end, you won't make much money.
