There were even wampees and j.a.panese raisin trees among the a.s.sortment.

Yuezheng Xiao’s men demonstrated great professionalism.

Not only were the trees planted on the mountainside, but Qiao Xuan’s s.p.a.ce was also utilized.

Due to the limited time, they hired numerous workers to a.s.sist with planting the fruit saplings this time. Their goal was to complete the planting within three days.

Observing that the dragon fruits and papayas were ripe, Qiao Xuan harvested some and shared them with the Xie Family, the magistrate, and First Madame.

They tasted the fruits in a nonchalant manner, appreciating their flavors with casual indifference.

The flesh of the fire dragon fruit was thick, sweet, and juicy. The papaya flesh was vibrant, plump, soft, and sweet. These were rare and precious fruits, ensuring that they could be sold at a good price without any concerns.

Moreover, these two fruits were excellent ingredients for fruit tea and dessert beverages. Their combinations allowed for innovative creations.

Qiao Xuan visited a few stores to experiment with different recipes, which invigorated and enlightened her. She came up with a few new variations.

Yuezheng Xiao helped Qiao Xuan find several managers and a.s.sistants. This time, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan took the opportunity to meet and interview the candidates, ensuring they made the right choices.

After a thorough selection process, they settled on Steward Zhou and Steward Bai as the stewards, along with a total of 23 servants among the three waiters.

Following that, they planned to construct a farmhouse on the flat ground at the foot of the orchard, providing accommodation for the staff. This would establish a proper industry.

With Yuezheng Xiao and First Madame’s support, Qiao Xuan felt rea.s.sured.

Time was limited, so they stayed in the provincial city for four days before preparing to depart.

If all went smoothly, they would reach the capital in early August.

When they arrived in the capital, they would officially embark on Shao Yunduan’s career as an official. They approached the future with a calm mindset, taking it one step at a time.

Shao Yunduan wasn’t overly fixated on becoming an official. While it would be ideal if he succeeded, he was also prepared to accept a different path if necessary.

Throughout the journey, they mostly admired the scenery along the way, occasionally discussing their plans. During their overnight stays, they found time to explore and savor the local delicacies.

Their journey back to the capital was remarkably smooth.

They arrived in the bustling city on the second day of August.

The streets were filled with people, and a festive atmosphere permeated the air. The shops showcased revolving doors, hanging musical chairs, and colorful decorations, creating a vibrant and beautiful scene.

Mooncakes were in abundance, and shop a.s.sistants loudly called out to attract customers.

Before entering the city, Qiao Xuan distributed red packets to the honor guards, who expressed heartfelt grat.i.tude and bid them farewell courteously.

Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan, Songs.h.i.+, Lixia, and Liqiu returned to their mansion.

As they opened the door and stepped inside, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan exchanged smiles. They were back, and they couldn’t help but wonder how they would feel when they had to leave the capital again.

Regardless, they still looked forward to the future.

Since everything had been organized before they left, the furniture was covered with dust covers. Although they were a bit late, they opened the windows to let fresh air in, removed the dust covers, and retrieved the bedrolls from the cabinet, laying them out…

The few of them swiftly tidied up the house.

Tomorrow, they would take their time to thoroughly clean and organize their home.
