Su Binglan discussed many things with Lan Ruozhu. She thought of many things after talking. Later, she continued to write her plans in the study.
“Brother, I have many more ideas to implement. I’ll write down detailed plans, and you can get people to do them.”
“All right,” Lan Ruozhu said with a smile.
Su Binglan wrote down many of her plans in detail so that anyone could understand them. Lan Ruozhu’s heart skipped a beat when he saw the proposals. “Sister, what’s a munitions factory?”
“It’s to produce weapons such as knives and spears for the soldiers. It’ll also produce equipment for attacking and defending city walls.”
Lan Ruozhu thought of something and said, “I remember the Gongsun family making such things in the past.”
Someone had annihilated the family. Fortunately, there was a survivor—Gongsun Mo. When Lan Ruozhu ascended the throne, he helped clear the family’s reputation and returned their mansion to Gongsun Mo.
However, Gongsun MO had yet to return to his family’s mansion and continued to live in Su Teng Village with his wife, Lei Tongtong. Since they lived well there, they did not want to go to the capital.
After Gongsun MO regained his identity, he began to investigate the Thundercloud Castle incident to avenge his father-in-law. Meanwhile, Su Binglan suspected that it had something to do with the Miaojiang tribe.
“I’ll talk to Gongsun MO about it. Some of the family’s branch side has some talented people. If they retain some of the family’s skills, they can make new weapons.”
“Perfect. When our country becomes strong, no one will dare invade. Our people can then continue living their peaceful lives.” Lan Ruozhu detested wars because it was always the commoners who suffered. Also, some soldiers would die and never return.
Lan Ruozhu only wanted to protect his country and the people. He did not want them to fear war or soldiers sacrificing themselves on the battlefield.
Su Binglan had also modified some melee weapons and drew them as blueprints. It was already late at night when she finished discussing things with her brother.
Su Binglan looked at the sky to calculate the time and realized Luo Jin’an should have returned to the manor by now. After bidding farewell to Lan Ruozhu, she returned to the manor.
During dinner, she told Luo Jin’an about her plans to return to Su Teng Village.
“You’ve decided to go back?”
Su Binglan nodded. “Yeah, I wrote construction plans for the capital and gave them to Brother. He can just task his men with carrying them out. We can return here in a few months, and it’ll be completely different.
“It’ll be livelier and more prosperous. By then, many will want to visit the capital to check it out. I might bring my family here, too.”
“Since you’re going back, I’ll come with you,” Luo Jin’an said gently, “To be honest, I want to check on the village, too.”
He had lived in Su Teng Village for quite a while and had developed profound feelings for it. He was excited when his wife mentioned it. He said, “Since the Wei Manor is massive, your parents can stay here when they visit.”
“That sounds lovely.” Su Binglan nodded. “The inn we’re building should be complete by then, too. I’ll keep one of the floors for my family to stay in whenever they visit. Then they can choose to live in the manor or at the inn.” The inn Su Binglan designed was a combination of ancient and modern. She wanted the atmosphere to be excellent, so she designed the interior perfectly. The contractors simply needed to follow her designs.
Su Binglan also arranged for her subordinates to be in charge of these matters in the capital. Everyone had received intensive training and knew what to do.
“Let’s build an ice cream factory in the village so everyone can have popsicles during the harvest. Mother fiff0te to me, saying Wenxian’s wife brought her some pearls from an island. Pearls are scarce. I plan to work with them and use the pearls to make jewelry.”
Although Su Binglan wanted to build a jewelry factory in the village, the surrounding land would probably be insufficient. Fortunately, there were many villages around.
She could build many factories if she could utilize the wastelands near the villages. While building the factory, she also prepared to build more staff dormitories. After all, there would be more factories and job opportunities. Su Binglan became spirited when she thought about it. She told Luo Jin’an about her plans after dinner. He said, “I want to help, but I’ll need to take a leave of absence from your brother first.”
Su Binglan smiled, saying, “I’ve already talked to him, and he said he’d give you a break. We can visit the village together.”
“Your brother dotes on you a lot, doesn’t he?” Luo Jin’an stroked his wife’s hair. He could tell how good Lan Ruozhu was to Su Binglan.
“That’s my brother for you.” Su Binglan felt warm inside when her husband mentioned Lan Ruozhu. Because of that, she wanted to help her brother as much as possible.
“Shall we set off tomorrow morning?” Su Binglan asked for Lan Ruozhu’s opinion.
“That sounds good.” Luo Jin’an nodded. “I’ll visit the military tonight and tell them about my leave.”
Su Binglan frowned. “Isn’t that a little rushed?”
“Not really. The earlier we go back, the earlier we can catch up with the harvest and help your family.”
Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua had planted plenty of wheat. Although they would hire people to help with their harvest, they had too much. The Su family also had potatoes and sweet potatoes.
Su Binglan knew her husband understood her. She said, “Then we can go home early and rest.”
The following morning, the couple would set off for Su Teng Village. Su Binglan hoped her husband would return early to sleep before they left. After all, he would need energy to travel tomorrow.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be quick.” Luo Jin’an had many generals guarding the capital.
Baili Jinghua had also found her parents, and they returned to General Baili’s residence in the capital.
General Baili and his wife lived there while Baili Jinghua brought Baili Hongrui to visit his father. It turned out there was a misunderstanding between Baili Jinghua and that person. It would be fine once they resolved it.
Su Binglan nodded. “Okay then.”
That night, Luo Jin’an visited the military and then returned to the manor in the middle of the night. After getting some sleep, the couple packed up and set off for Su Teng Village.
The two rode horses and traveled quickly, reaching Su Teng Village in just a few days. Su Binglan was full of anticipation when she arrived. She felt a sense of familiarity when she looked around..
