“No, the Ministry of Revenue is like an iron bucket. The people I sent in couldn’t come into contact with anything substantial. I’m afraid it’ll take some time before there’s news.” Xiao Heng shook his head.

“You may leave.” The Emperor waved his hand in disappointment.

He was getting worried about the situation at the Ministry of Revenue. It seemed that he had to break this deadlock.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t even know if the national treasury had been emptied that day.

But who would be suitable? He flipped through the list of resumes of officials of the third rank and above.

Zhou Ying, on the other hand, had been watching the Emperor’s every move, curious about the Cui family’s future.

After receiving an answer from the Emperor, she immediately told Gu Chengrui, “The Emperor has sent people to capture Yang Shicheng. What should we do now? Should we send a message to Yang Wanning?”

“No need. This has nothing to do with her. The less she knows, the better.” Gu Chengrui shook his head and replied.

“Alright, but 1 don’t know when they will be able to sever their father-daughter relationship.”

“This is hard to say. Yang Shicheng won’t let go unless it’s necessary.

“If Yang Shicheng doesn’t say anything, Yang Wanning mustn’t take the initiative. Otherwise, her reputation would be ruined as an unfilial daughter.”

Zhou Ying nodded in agreement. Usually, if the parents were still around, it would be difficult for a person to separate from their family, let alone sever a father-daughter relationship.

She then asked, “By the way, how are the vegetables growing in the manor?”

“They’re fine. The spinach and rapeseed have already grown tender seedlings. As long as any extreme weather doesn’t appear, we might be able to plant another crop before the new year.”

“Do you want to try garlic?”

“It’s better not to. It’s not appropriate to take out the seeds now. Let’s put it off until next year. Oh, I’ve already asked Brother Zhou about the farm you asked me to investigate.

“It belongs to neither Prince Hui nor the Yang family, but someone called Wang Li. However, he did not recognize this person.”

“Could it be an alias?”

“It could be, or it could be someone under Prince Hui.”

“That’s true. There aren’t even any photos of the person right now. For someone with high status like Prince Hui, it’s too easy to fabricate a fake identity.”

“By the way, Brother Zhou said it’s impossible for us to buy a farm. We can only think of a way to build it ourselves.

“However, he did recommend a place to me. It’s at the foot of West Mountain, not far from the hot spring manor.

“It’s said that place is overgrown with thorns and weeds. It was about 2,000 acres, and there’s a river on the side. If the place is rebuilt, it will be enough to supply the restaurant.”

“Is there any flaw? Otherwise, such a large area wouldn’t have been left empty all this time, right?”

“First, it’s too remote. Second, the land is poor.

“When the Ming Dynasty was just established, an official took a fancy to that piece of land and planted many peach trees. However, the trees either fell ill or the peaches that bore were small and sour, so he gave up.

“Later, when it fell into the hands of his descendants, it remained empty until now.

“However, from his description, it was because the land was slightly acidic and unsuitable for growing northern plants. So, I want to take some time to go over and take a look. I want to bring some samples back for an experiment. If it’s suitable, I will buy it.”

“Sure, let’s go take a look at it. 1 remember that watermelons like acidic soil. We can plant watermelons and earn a lot of money from selling them. Why don’t we go together tomorrow? It’ll save you the trouble of running back and forth.” Zhou Ying said.

“It’s better not to. The capital will be changing rapidly over the next two days. We can’t treat it as if we were blind.

“Besides, you still have to enter the palace tomorrow to make hotpot..”
