All Hail Cousin Brother

Chapter 862: Both kindness and power

The medicinal materials needed to prevent and treat epidemic diseases are also ordinary medicinal materials, and many of them grow on the mountain.

Lack of preparation, now there is still time to prepare fully.

Huang Wenwen understood it immediately: "With the Xie Mansion taking the lead in donating medicine, and the princess behind in collecting medicine for the refugees, if things get more troubled, the gentry in the north may not be able to sit still."

The resettlement of refugees is a matter of national policy, and the gentry cannot stand idly by.

Yu Youyao said calmly: "Let me spread the news again. On March 15th, I will go to Longfeng Temple to worship the Medicine Buddha and pray for blessings and cure diseases for the people in the north."

General Anyuan said: "Given the reputation of the princess in the north, once the news spreads, the epidemic will attract everyone's attention. I think not only the north, but also the imperial court and even wealthy businessmen from all over the country will come to help." .”

Now that the Queen Mother is in charge of the affairs of the DPRK, the royalist party is powerful, and the imperial court has moved the refugees to Liaodong, so it will not just sit back and ignore the epidemic.

Turn passivity into initiative in an instant.

After talking about the epidemic, Yu Youyao mentioned the locust plague again.

Huang Wenwen and General Anyuan immediately grimaced.

Yu Youyao said: "I have written down all the methods to prevent and control locust plagues. Among them, horse bones, silkworm dung, sheep dung, aconite, etc. are used to soak seeds. This method can be widely promoted, and the things used in the prescription are also simple and easy to use." Yes, it is also advisable to raise ducks and geese to kill locusts. Considering that there are not so many ducks in the north, you can send merchant ships to Guangdong to purchase ducks and geese to hatch eggs, and raise ducks and geese on the farm..."

They are all coastal cities, and shipping by sea is also convenient. If there is no method of soaking seeds to prevent and control the locust plague, once the ducks and geese come out, the locust plague will no longer be a threat.

The army needs a lot of meat every day, so no matter how much it is raised, it is not afraid.

Huang Wenwen and General Anyuan looked at each other, as if any problem could be easily resolved in front of the princess, so what on earth did the princess ask them to do? !

Yu Youyao said: "These two methods are the most effective ones after careful consideration. Of course, the more methods to prevent and control locust plagues, the better. Lushan Academy has a large collection of books. There must be other methods. Send people to search for them. One or two, spring plowing and production is coming soon, we must let the government publish the list as soon as possible, so that the people can prepare and take precautions as soon as possible, and we can’t miss the plowing."

General Anyuan said: "I will take care of the Lushan Academy."

Huang Wenwen also said: "I will go to the Yamen of the state government soon to see Mr. Ye and inform the matter so that the government can make arrangements as soon as possible."

Yu Youyao felt much relieved.

There are also differences between state capitals and state capitals.

There are people like Mr. Jia who govern Quanzhou, which is also the state capital, and there are people like Ye Cixiao who govern the three provinces of Liaodong and more than a dozen counties and districts.

Although they are both third-grade, Master Ye also holds several positions at the same time, but it is not something Yu Youyao can control. Interfering with Chao Gang is not a trivial matter, and it should not be talked about in the first place.

It would be most appropriate for Huang Wenwen to come forward.

Huang Wenwen and General Anyuan were sent away.

After a while, Xia Tao came over and reported: "Manager Jiang, Shopkeeper Wan, and Carpenter Zhao and his son, come here to kowtow to the eldest lady to express gratitude."

After the old lady passed away, Grandma Liu died and went with her.

Most of the other people in Anshou Hall stayed in the house and continued to serve.

The old lady gave her three wives to the eldest lady. They were also the first group to come to Xiangping and were responsible for repairing the house at first.

In the past few days, the eldest lady has been busy reorganizing the house and arranging formal work for them.

Carpenter Zhao's family is still doing some repair and renovation work as they did in Yu Mansion, which is leisurely and dignified.

The eldest lady didn't treat them badly for the other two people in the house. They were treated in the same way as before when they were treated by the old lady. When they came to the eldest lady, they were treated accordingly.

One filled the gap of the general manager, and the other filled the gap of the general manager in the shop.

In addition, the eldest lady also arranged corresponding supplements, cloth, silk, food, silver rewards, etc. from her own account every month to show her preferential treatment to them.

Yu Youyao smiled: "Please come in quickly."

Carpenter Zhao and his son both came over. Jiang and Wan lived in the house, but only the man in charge came.

The four people kowtowed to Yu Youyao in a polite manner.

Yu Youyao said quickly: "Hurry up and sit down. You used to be the most powerful people in front of grandma. Grandma trusted you, but she couldn't trust me, so she let you work in front of me. Now I have just come to the north, and I have a new name." I have purchased a lot of properties, and I still need you to take care of them."

They are both children of the same family, with the affection of serving for generations, and they are also old people. They are not lacking in ability and loyalty, and Yu Youyao can feel confident in using them.

There is no reason not to reuse it.

These words not only acknowledged their affection for serving the old lady in the past, but also expressed how much he valued them.

Manager Jiang was also in tears: "We have served the old lady for most of our lives. The old lady loved the eldest lady the most when she was alive. She also gave us ardent instructions before she died, asking us to take good care of the eldest lady in the future. The old lady treated us kindly. We should also do our best to fulfill our master-servant relationship with the old lady."

Manager Wan said excitedly: "The old lady arranged for us to serve the eldest lady. We are the slaves of the eldest lady. The eldest lady cares about our kindness in serving the old lady and treats us favorably. This is our blessing."

The eldest lady's arrangements for them were similar to those in the past. On the one hand, she entrusted them with important responsibilities and expressed the importance she attached to them.

On the other hand, why not beat them in a subtle way? Just like how they were in front of their grandmother in the past, when they are in front of her, they have to remain the same, abide by the rules of the house, work with all their heart, and not be too self-reliant in serving their grandmother.

Otherwise, if you break the rules of the house, it will be difficult to do it because of your grandmother's affection.

This is official business, with both kindness and authority.

The preferential treatment given to them was not from the public account, but was subsidized by the eldest lady herself. This also showed that the eldest lady cared about their affection because of her grandmother, and privately treated them differently.

I also care about friendship.

They have not only gained important positions, but also gained dignity, and also benefited from the eldest lady. Anyone with knowledge and understanding should know that their master has good intentions towards them.

After Jin'er took charge of the palace, they quickly came over and kowtowed to the eldest lady to express their loyalty.

The master and the servant chatted for a while and got closer.

When Butler Jiang and Shopkeeper Wan left, they saw a little maid leading Bai Shao into the yard.

Miss Bai Shao was wearing a dark green coat and skirt. She didn't plan to get married, so she combed her hair and became a housekeeper. Because she wanted to pay filial piety to the old lady, she didn't have any accessories on her body, but her style was even better than before, and she had a hint of the original. Grandma Liu’s style.

The eldest lady wants to do the fragrant medicine business. When she was in Quanzhou earlier, she arranged for Bai Shao and Qingxiu to go to Zhiyulou to learn how to do the fragrant medicine business.
