“Then will I be able to serve Prince Ruozhu if I study at Blue Mountain Academy? That’s the one in Tenghe Town.”

“l don’t know about that, but I know that Princess Ruobing established Blue Mountain Academy. It should be the same as Fiery Blue Academy. So, are the students who study there Prince Ruozhu’s disciples?”

“That should be…

“l heard of how prosperous Tenghe Town is now. The dessert shop and hotpot restaurants were first established there.’

“If that’s the case, I’d like to visit Tenghe Town.”

Su Binglan and Su Wenxiu heard the discussions around them as they strolled around the shop. The former smiled when she heard the customers’ conversations. She could feel the changes that had occurred in Yang County when she saw the commoners’ smiles.

Su Wenxiu liked all the books in the shop. He could not wait to return to Su Teng Village and visit the paper mill and printing factory to take a look inside. He wanted to see how they operated.

Su Wenxiu’s hand trembled slightly from excitement. Meanwhile, Su Binglan’s eyes lit up as she looked at the book she held. She was delighted that her family had made the paper so well and printed the books excellently. Su Wenxiu could not help but ask, “Sister, when will we go home?”

Su Binglan replied, “As soon as we settle everything here.”

She no longer had to worry about the factories since everyone already knew how to make ketchup and process medicinal herbs. However, the villa at the hot spring was still a work in progress, so it would take time to establish.

If she had the blueprints, she could hand it over to the locals to build the villa. She also had to hire a new county magistrate.

Su Wenxiu realized he would return to Su Teng Village soon. After the siblings left the shop, they prepared to return to Yang Village. However, they took a small path beside the main road instead.

Along the way, they saw a shop at the alley entrance. A few people were there removing goods from a carriage.

“Sir, do you have a delivery for me?”

“Have you delivered the things I sent you last time? Oh, I sent a letter to someone, too. I’ve already paid for it.”

“Wait, I can send and pick up goods from this place?”

Some were curious about the office. Even Su Wenxiu did not know what the office was for. He asked, “Sister, is this a place where we can send and collect goods? Didn’t you ask your workers to be couriers or something like that?”

Sy Binglan looked at the signboard above the office, which read, “Courier Office.’

It seemed this office was the delivery station her people had set up in various places. Su Binglan had told Lan Ruozhu about it when she visited him in the prefecture last time.

She did not expect her brother to build the courier offices so quickly. The courier office was not even here when the Su siblings arrived in Yang County. Instead, it looked like its construction would only finish in the next few days.

Since that was the case, Su Teng Village should also have a courier office, which was convenient for most.

“Is anyone here from Liuhe Village?” The worker asked as he sorted his bag.

“Yes, I’m from Liuhe Village,” a woman standing outside said.

The worker looked at the list and said, “l have two packages for that area. One is for a Liu Juhua, and the other is for a Liu Yang.”

The woman confirmed her name with the worker. The latter then asked her to help pass some flowers to Liu Yang. The woman nodded, thinking of how easy it was to send and pick up parcels.

Moreover, she had only found out that she had a parcel here because she had helped one of her neighbors deliver a letter. She guessed her third sister had sent her something. Liu Juhua had also sent her third sister some things.

At that time, she did not send too many parcels because she was worried the courier office would have delivery problems. Nonetheless, the fees only cost a few coppers.

Liu Juhua accepted the parcel and letter her sister had sent her and then gave the worker a letter. The letter was for her sister, letting her know that she had received everything.

Liu Juhua smiled and said, “This courier office is so convenient. I can quickly send and receive things from my relatives now.”

Sometimes, she had to travel far to deliver the food she had grown to her relatives. It was too troublesome, However, that was no longer the case,

“My mother says it’ll be quicker to send letters or packages through this courier office. They also help us read the letters if we can’t read.”

“The most important thing is that it’s cheap.”

Everyone smiled and chatted as they collected their parcels. When the workers finished unloading and delivering all the packages, they filled the carriage with things that they would send elsewhere.

The worker was pleased when he heard the villagers praising the courier system. He said, “Prince Ruozhu built this office for the people’s convenience.”

The villagers were touched when they heard that. One of them said, “Prince

Ruozhu thinks of everything.”

“Living under his jurisdiction is a blessing. Everyone can eat their fill as long as they’re diligent.”

“That’s right. Prince Ruozhu just reduced our taxes, so we can spend that extra money on food. Everything is much better now, especially since the princess has built a few factories here.’

“I just found out that there’s a paper shop in town. I heard Princess Binglan developed the paper they sell there, and it’s really cheap.”

“It seems our days will only improve as long as Prince Ruozhu is healthy and manages Dingzhou well.”

“My elder brother used to think Dingzhou was remote. When he read my letter, he decided to move here instead.’

“Most people are doing that. I’ve seen so many new faces here over the past month. Although it’s pretty rural here, at least we’re doing better than places outside of Dingzhou.”

“I heard bandits are rampant elsewhere, and wars are going on all the time. It’s not easy to survive in a prefecture that’s under other princes’ jurisdiction. There are just too many wars and killings elsewhere.”

Su Wenxiu looked at the courier office and said excitedly, “Prince Ruozhu is amazing. If he manages all of Chu Country, the commoners can live and work in peace.”

Naturally, he knew who the prince was.

Meanwhile, Su Binglan thought about how Lan Ruozhu was in charge of the areas from Dingzhou to the border province. Now that he had finished building the courier offices, he could focus on establishing deliveries via the lakes. By then, the royal siblings could occupy all of Chu Country silently.

Su Binglan said, “You don’t have to worry, Wenxiu. You only need to nurture as many medical students as you can.”

“I’m excellent at that.” Su Wenxiu knew what he was supposed to do. He then thought of something and asked, “By the way, where are we going now?”

“To where the next county magistrate lives,” Su Binglan replied mysteriously..
