The next day.

Early in the morning, after dinner at the Liu Residence, Lin Xiaoyue and the others brought Prince Anyang and Liang Yu to the Zhou Manor.

As soon as they arrived at the manor, they saw a large amount of resources.

It was the ones that Prince Anyang had arranged for his subordinates to buy yesterday.

Head Fang’s face was full of smiles. After Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao thanked Prince Anyang, he once again expressed his gratitude to Prince Anyang on behalf of the people in the manor.

Prince Anyang was very pleased to hear this.

After learning that the Nangong Army was opening up the mountains today, he became interested again and suggested going to the mountains to take a look. Lin Xiaoyue was also curious about the progress of the mountain reclamation, so she let Head Fang lead the way.

They set off from the manor and arrived not long after.

The mountain that he had seen before had already undergone a huge change.

Just as Lin Xiaoyue had planned, many terraced fields had been cultivated on the mountain.

These terraced fields were well-arranged, and a large number of people were still busy in the fields. It looked extremely lively.

Fan Ming was commanding everyone on the mountain when he learned that Lin Xiaoyue and Prince Anyang were there.

He hurried down the mountain.

“Greetings Your Highness, greetings Sir and Miss!” Fan Ming tidied his clothes from a distance before coming forward and greeting them.

Prince Anyang looked at Lin Xiaoyue.

“This is the head of the Zhou Manor,” Lin Xiaoyue explained.

“He’s leading the soldiers to reclaim the wasteland and build up the Zhou Manor. Head Fang had a lot of work to do, so Head Fan was in charge of the Zhou manor.”

Prince Anyang nodded, then turned to look at Fan Ming.

“Get up.” He said.

“Thank you, Your Highness!” Fan Ming hurriedly thanked him.

“These mountainous regions have been cultivated quite well. Bring me up the mountain to take a look.” Prince Anyang said again.

“Yes, sir!” Fan Ming hurriedly led the way.

Then, he led the group of people up the mountain and explained along the way.

Fan Ming also answered the questions that Prince Anyang raised from time to time.

“These are all Miss’ ideas. We worked according to Miss’ design and found that after the road was paved, it was indeed much more convenient.”

“Also, the newly dug water reservoir can be tested in a few days. If it doesn’t leak, we’re going to fill it with snow.” In this way, after spring, they would be able to store water.

When Prince Anyang heard that, he was also amazed at Lin Xiaoyue’s ingenious thinking.

He even ordered someone to bring a pen and paper to record what he saw and heard today. He was prepared to implement it in Anyang County.

Lin Xiaoyue did not pay any attention to him. She only accompanied him and checked the progress while she was at it. She also greeted the soldiers.

Most of the Nangong Army knew Lin Xiaoyue, but some of them had never met her.

These soldiers knew that Lin Xiaoyue and their general had come thousands of miles to save them.

All of them wanted to see their general’s wife.

When they heard that she looked like a fairy, they were all looking forward to it.

When they saw her in person, many people did not even care about the work in their hands.

They were either stunned or scrambling to talk to Lin Xiaoyue.

If it wasn’t for Li Xiao blocking them, Lin Xiaoyue probably wouldn’t be free.

Lin Xiaoyue was very enthusiastic from the beginning to the end. She told everyone to get off work early in the afternoon and not to work in the afternoon. They cheered for her.

They also learned that Prince Anyang had sent over wine and meat. Today, everyone could eat from noon to night and celebrate the new year. The Nangong Army expressed their gratitude to Prince Anyang again.

When Prince Anyang heard their grateful words, a surge of emotion rose in his heart.

When they came down from the mountain, they were still very excited.

When he returned to the manor, the kitchen was already busy.

Lin Xiaoyue smelled the fragrance of the vegetables before she even got close.

Looking at the manor decorated with lanterns and streamers, Lin Xiaoyue suddenly felt the atmosphere of the new year.

Remembering something, Lin Xiaoyue wanted to instruct Fan Teng to do something, but she didn’t see Fan Teng.

Not only Fan Teng, but Xiao Yang was also absent.

After asking around, she found out that Xiao Yang had actually brought Fan Teng and a few soldiers to the mountain beside the Zhou Manor.

He said that he wanted to hunt for the soldiers.

Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao looked at each other and didn’t say anything.

She hoped that the kid wouldn’t return empty-handed…

Time passed quickly. Before the tables were set up and the banquet was about to begin, Xiao Yang and the others finally returned.

There were a total of fifteen people, and they returned with three wild boars, a brown bear, a leopard, five deer, and a large number of small animals..
