Lan Shenxing sent Madam Chang and Zhu Xiongying back to the Eastern Palace and asked for the keys to the residence.
Then, he wrapped the film and potatoes in cloth and carried them out.
He called over four Brocade Guards and ordered them to get some plant ash.
Plant ash was also known as all-purpose ash. It was the residue left behind by the burning of herbs and trees.
It basically contained all the mineral elements contained in plants.
When applied to the soil, it could be used as a base fertilizer, seed fertilizer, and topdressing. It could also be used as a seed cover fertilizer for raising seedlings.
At the same time, it was also used by the poor to wash their hair.
To put it more bluntly, this thing was like fertilizer in ancient times, but the former had a wider range of uses.
While the Embroidered Uniform Guards went to get the plant ash, Lan Shenxing started to build a small farm shed.
There were abandoned wooden sticks in the courtyard. Although there were not many of them, they were enough.
After all…
He only had a piece of potato that weighed one catty, so it didn't take up much space.
Lan Shenxing buried the wooden sticks into the soil and supported them with each other. At a glance, they looked like a small farm shed.
Now, all he needed to do was cover the shed and bury it in the soil.
At this moment.
A few Brocade Guards returned with a large sack of plant ash.
"Thank you for your hard work. Everyone, please return."
Lan Shenxing took the sack and closed the door.
He took out the film and began to operate it after roughly measuring it.
An hour later, the small farm shed was completed.
For convenience, he had left an entrance. However, the shed was a little small, and the entrance was a little pocket-sized.
With his physique, he had to crawl in.
In order to better keep warm, Lan Shenxing went out to find a tattered cotton coat as the door curtain at the entrance of the shed.
After doing all this, he put away the film that was less than one-tenth used and hid it.
And then…
He took out the potatoes.
Looking at the sprouted potatoes, Lan Shenxing felt for the first time that the system had some conscience.
He took off the Embroidered Spring Knife at his waist.
After the blade was unsheathed, it was cut into eight pieces.
There was a saying.
" Cut a catty of potatoes into eight pieces. After two to three months, they will grow up to 20 catties.'
These words were not exaggerated at all.
Lan Shenxing brought some plant ash and cut potatoes into the shed. Each potato was planted 30 centimeters apart.
Before burying him in the ground, he didn't forget to soak it in the plant ash.
Because this way, the potatoes could grow better.
Next.
Lan Shenxing began to 'fertilize'. He sprinkled a small pot of plant ash evenly in the shed.
After doing all this, he retreated and carefully closed the door curtain.
It was no exaggeration to say that this was the most serious time Lan Shenxing had ever been since he transmigrated.
He looked at the shed as if he was looking at his own child.
……
At the same time, in the palace.
Mao Xiang walked in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and reported Lan Shenxing's abnormal behavior.
"Get the Embroidered Uniform Guards to get him plant ash?”
Zhu Yuanzhang was amused when he heard that.
Mao Xiang was speechless.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards, which were feared by everyone, actually did such a thing in Lan Shenxing's hands.
"Why is he doing this?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a smile.
"According to the reports of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Lan Shenxing is working in the vegetable field in the house that the Crown Prince bought for him.”
Mao Xiang reported truthfully.
"This kid knows how to work?"
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and smiled." Let him be. Winter is coming soon. What is he doing?" Alright, in the future, don't report anything about him to me.”
He had the Embroidered Uniform Guards keep an eye on the 'chess pieces' he had deployed.
As a chess piece, Lan Shenxing was no exception.
However, there was definitely no problem in directly ordering the Embroidered Uniform Guards to do something like this.
After all, Lan Shenxing was not stupid enough to…
Knowing that the Jinyiwei were Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, he still let the Jinyiwei do shameful things.
……
After Lan Shenxing finished his work, he stood in the courtyard with a conflicted expression.
He wanted to return to the Eastern Palace, but he did not dare to leave.
He was afraid…
If a thief came in at night and destroyed his work, he would lose more than he gained.
Thinking of this…
Lan Shenxing even felt that he was suffering from paranoia.
But he had no choice.
It was too dangerous at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. It was always right to be cautious.
Hence…
Lan Shenxing walked out of the house, locked the door, and called the Embroidered Uniform Guards over again.
"My lord…"
The Embroidered Uniform Guards looked at Lan Shenxing helplessly.
"From today onwards, you only need to do one thing.”
Lan Shenxing glanced at the six of them and pointed at the three of them.""The three of you, guard the front of the house during the day. Other than me, don't let anyone else in!”
Then, he looked at the other three and said,""The three of you will be in charge of the night! As for when it will end, I will inform you in advance.”
“……”
The six Embroidered Uniform Guards wanted to cry.
After making these arrangements, Lan Shenxing returned to the Eastern Palace and rested in peace.
News of the six Embroidered Uniform Guards taking turns guarding the door reached Mao Xiang.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang had said it first.
At this moment…
Mao Xiang could not say anything, much less report on his own accord.
