    Su Binn smiled brightly, saying, “Now that you’ve mentioned it, I can’t wait to get to the border province.”


    Luo Jin’an stroked his wife’s hair and said, “We don’t have to work as hard as we did when we first visited. We can even get the local officials to help now.”<div>


    Su Binn raised her brows. “You’re right. We can save a lot of time and energy, too. Everything will be much easier since we no longer have to do everything ourselves.


    “I found some good things in the ck Forest back then. We can use the hawthorns to make many delicacies.”


    The couple talked along their journey. They even saw many hotpot restaurants as they passed by several towns and viges. Su Binn said, “Hey, they have multi-grain pancakes and tbread in this town, too!”


    She would look around curiously along their journey and go to each food street to enjoy local delicacies. She also saw many stalls that provided ketchup. “Sir, where did you get this ketchup from?”


    The old woman felt Su Binn looked beautiful. The former smiled lovingly and said, “I bought it from a person who sells explicitly ketchup here. He said he got it from Yang County’s ketchup factory.


    “So many people like this sauce, so most of the stalls here serve it alongside their food and snacks. Some snacks taste better once you dip them in ketchup, youngdy. Here, I’ll put some for you to try.”


    “All right, that sounds good!” Su Binn bought two tbreads and ate them with Luo Jin’an. Indeed, they thought it tasted better with ketchup.


    “Ma’am, your tbread is so soft and fragrant.”


    The old woman smiled. “It’s my family’s recipe, youngdy. You know, I never nned on selling these for a living. A distant rtive of mine visited recently and told me that the people of Teng County typically sell their food as a business.


    “Sure enough, business is booming. Some people even sell pancakes and skewers. My son and daughter-inw have a stall, too. They make egg rolls with vegetables and serve them with ketchup.”


    The old woman could not stop smiling as she spoke.<div>


    “Aren’t your son and daughter-inw here, Ma’am?”


    “The government is building a private school in our vige, and they’re enrolling many children. My son and his wife have registered their two children, so I look after their stall whenever they’re not around.”


    The old woman thought Su Binn was a good talker and could not help but say a few more words. Her words reminded Su Binn of the free private schools that would be all around the country.


    After enrolling the students, the government would send a suitable number of teachers to each school.


    “I’m happy to hear that, Ma’am.”


    “Indeed, the vigers were overjoyed when they heard that their children could attend school for free. They were also happy that the government would hire the teachers who taught at these schools. It’s all thanks to the new emperor. Everyone loves him and only wishes him the best health and longevity.”


    Su Binn thought themoners were honest and easy to please. They loved the emperor because he only did things that benefited them. “Yeah, the new emperor has issued many beneficial decrees since ascending the throne.”


    The old woman said, “I’m not sure what government decrees are, but I know that the emperor is kind-hearted. He even lets us keep the wastnds we reim.


    “Some government workers came here to give us seeds recently, and we just finished nting them. Apparently, they were high-yield seeds.” The old woman’s smile grew wide as she spoke.


    Su Binn realized the old woman was referencing the potato and sweet potato seeds. It seemed Lan Ruozhu had already distributed them to themoners.


    Su Binn believed the country’s vegetable and grain production would increase several times soon. By then, most people in Chu Country could eat their fill and have warm clothes to wear during winter.<div>


    Su Binn continued conversing with the old woman, and thetter enjoyed talking to the youngdy. “We also have paper and bookstores in our town now. The paper they sell is very cheap.


    “I also heard that the government will now hold annual Imperial Exams to select talented individuals. Everyone was thrilled when they heard this news. Students who have studied hard can take the exams when autumn arrives.”


    Su Binn nodded. Indeed, the government needed to replenish its talents. After chatting with the old woman, Su Binn and Luo Jin’an left.


    The old woman watched Su Binn’s departing figure and suspected the youngdy was not an ordinary person. After all, Su Binn naturally exuded a unique temperament.


    During their journey to the border province, Su Binn inquired about the local market. She discovered that many ces were developing toward a brighter future.


    The governments in various ces also began to work earnestly for themoners. That was because they would need an assessment of how much they had contributed to the people before getting a promotion.


    Moreover, the government had sent supervisors to check on things. Government officials from all over the country worked with 120% attention.


    Soon, everyone heard about the traveling princess who liked to converse with themoners. The government officials knew the emperor would immediately find out if theymitted any misdeeds. Therefore, the government officials dared not ck off.


    Along the journey, Su Binn wrote letters to Lan Ruozhu about the situation in various ces.


    Lan Ruozhu was always happy to receive letters from his sister. After all, he could learn a lot about the people and their customs through Su Binn’s letters.


    Although he was mainly in the pce, he felt like he was with his sister during her journey. Lan Ruozhu felt a sense of aplishment when he read about how much themoners praised him.<div>


    After reading Su Binn’s letter, Lan Ruozhu felt reenergized and motivated. He took a piece of paper and wrote a reply. He also often mentioned the Imperial Court in his letters.


    Of course, Lan Ruozhu and Su Binn would deliver their letters through the spiritual eagle Su Binn had adopted. After all, Su Binn was constantly moving as she traveled toward the border province.


    Moreover, only the eagle could find her exact location.


    Although the Imperial Court was on the right track, it needed more talented individuals. However, they would finally select more talents after the Imperial Exams during autumn.
