Chapter 201 People's Livelihood

Yu Dan also visited Xiyuan City a few years ago. At that time, she felt that Xiyuan City was much worse than Lingyue Island. It was vast and sparsely populated, and the poor people lived in poverty. The streets were not lively at all, and many places were

There was no one farming. Those rich people had moved to other counties. Even the houses on the streets looked very old. At that time, Yu Dan was still very proud of his Lingyue Island. At that time, many people thought

Those who migrated to Lingyue Island were rejected by Lingyue Island.

But when I came to Xiyuan City again today, Yu Dan was a little surprised at the great changes in Xiyuan City. The streets were actually very lively, and the houses on both sides had been renovated. Because the Nineteenth Princess was getting married, many of the houses were

It has been renovated and renovated.

Look at the expressions on the faces of the people, they are all smiling. Many of them are shopping with their children, and even more are queuing up outside the tofu shops to buy freshly baked, hot and delicious fried stinky tofu.

Now this has become a very popular snack in Xiyuan City, and it is not expensive. People who queue up are mainly buying it for children, and of course the parents also eat a bunch of it.

Yu Dan clearly felt that the number of people in Xiyuan City had rebounded significantly, and the sale of grain and vegetables was actually not expensive. Due to the emergence of tofu, Xiyuan City's bean products also began to sell well. At the same time, the people's species

The enthusiasm of the local people has also increased, because the Nineteenth Princess has significantly reduced taxes, which has reduced the burden on the people a lot.

Anyway, the whole Xiyuan City seems to be prosperous. Yu Dan inquired for a long time and found out that these changes only started after the arrival of the 19th Princess, so the common people have great trust in the 19th Princess.

Very supportive too!

Yu Dan also followed the crowd and queued up to buy fried stinky tofu. Although the Nineteenth Princess invited her to dinner last time, she also had this snack, but it was too little, only four yuan, and she was not satisfied with it at all.

But fortunately, the subsequent dishes were served in an endless stream, which made her forget about this tempting snack. Now that she came to Xiyuan City alone, she could just eat to her heart's content. Yu Dan brought more than two thousand taels of silver with him.

The banknotes are enough for her to live comfortably in Xiyuan City for several years!

Although there were many people queuing up, Yu Dan was not in a hurry and just happened to chat with the uncle in front of him. The uncle was queuing up with his two daughters. It was obvious that he was an honest and kind farmer. His hands were covered with calluses.

, the skin is also dark and rough, but very energetic!

"Uncle, so much has changed in just six months? I don't believe it. Isn't it just that some taxes have been exempted, which makes you so happy?" Yu Dan was disguised as a man at this time, but the clothes on his body were still very luxurious.

He looks like the son of a wealthy family!

"Hehe! Of course not only the tax has been reduced, but the original forage task has also been cancelled. The forage that was supposed to be handed over to King Wen and Mingwang every year is also allocated to each household. This is also a big burden.

! And now the emergence of this kind of tofu has made our beans more popular, and the price has also increased. More importantly, the original beans can only be made into bean cakes, and no one wants to eat them. Now this kind of tofu

It can make a lot of dishes, which are very delicious, so the dishes on our dinner table have also become richer." The uncle said happily.

"Then you won't have enough money to come to Xiyuan City to eat, drink and have fun in such a short time, right?" Yu Dan still asked a little unbelievingly, after all, it has only been half a year, and it is already very good to improve your life.

If you have spare money to enjoy it, this seems a bit too exaggerated.

"Hehe! Of course not. But now my life is stable, and I still go to cut some grass when I have free time. Princess Nineteenth buys the grass that I harvest now. Although the price is not high, I can still earn some pocket money.

So I am taking my two children out to play, they just like to eat this kind of fried stinky tofu, even my wife likes it!" The uncle said a little proudly, and now he can make a bit of money by harvesting fodder.

So they make a little money when they have time, and they can occasionally improve their lives. This was simply impossible before!

"Oh!... This Nineteenth Princess is really good at governance?" Yu Dan really believed it at this time. The Nineteenth Princess really made Xiyuan City prosperous as rumored. Now it seems that Xiyuan City is prosperous.

The atmosphere of the city has surpassed Lingyue Island.

"Of course! Everyone is very grateful to the Nineteenth Princess. If the Nineteenth Princess had come a few years earlier, Xiyuan City would have become rich! Now many people have begun to buy land in Xiyuan City. Hey, little brother, I see you

He is also the son of a wealthy family. If you want to buy land, hurry up. I heard that the land prices in Xiyuan City are also rising now!" The uncle did not notice Yu Dan's expression, but became more and more enthusiastic as he talked.

"Oh! OK... OK..." Yu Dan came back to his senses and nodded repeatedly. At this time, it was the uncle's turn. He bought four skewers of fried stinky tofu. It could be seen that there was another skewer.

He brought it back to his wife.

Yu Dan suddenly felt that this kind of family life was quite warm. Unlike the Lingyue tribe, they never had the concept of family, because after they gave birth, they only left behind baby girls. Because only baby girls can inherit the talents of the Lingyue tribe.

So they have always lived in a big family atmosphere. The baby boy was sent to the civilian area down the mountain, where there is a special adoption agency, or the child's biological father also stayed in Lingyue.

Life on the island has settled down, and there are many such situations.

Yu Dan also bought five skewers of fried stinky tofu. There were four stinky tofu pieces on each skewer, which was equivalent to 20 yuan. This time, he ate it very happily. He also ordered a bowl of bracken and tofu soup, which was really delicious.

Ah! Yu Dan actually burped again after eating, and then left with satisfaction! It only cost thirty-five coppers in total, which was really cheap!

Although Yu Dan is eating and playing, she is also thinking and weighing. After all, she is the princess of Lingyue Island, and she also wants to improve people's livelihood. The lives of the common people on Lingyue Island are not as good as those in Xiyuan City.

How did the Nineteenth Princess do it? Yu Dan analyzed that the biggest driving force was this kind of tofu, which made beans that were not popular suddenly become a best-seller, and the enthusiasm of farmers was greatly improved!

Yu Dan regretted a little. If he had known this, he should have added an additional condition last time, that is, to open a tofu shop on Lingyue Island. In this case, the living conditions of the civilians on Lingyue Island would also be greatly improved.

Because Lingyue Mountain on Lingyue Island is rich in iron and stone, it has no other advantages. The crops are mainly beans, and the common people eat bean cakes as their staple food. To be honest, those bean cakes are very unpalatable.

I ate Yu Dan once and it was hard to swallow. I never ate it again!

"Hmph! The tofu introduced by the Nineteenth Princess is simply Zhu Xiaobao's masterpiece! No, I still have to find this Zhu Xiaobao. After taking my golden arrow, there must be an explanation, right?" Yu Dan thought angrily.

On!

When we moved to the city lord's palace, it became even more lively. Today happened to be the arrival of goods from the store. The soaps and toilet paper were placed on the shelves, and the burning knives were also piled on the other shelf. The clerks in the store were filling the shelves.

I was sweating profusely to maintain order. There were too many people coming, and the queue reached all the way to the city lord's mansion.

And many of them are young ladies and wives from wealthy families, chatting and joking in line with their maids. Now no one dares to cause trouble anymore. Everyone knows that the Nineteenth Duke is very strict in charge, and even the servants of Prince Ming have been beaten back.

Now, how dare you make trouble while sleeping?

Yu Dan didn't need to rush to buy. Didn't the Nineteenth Princess give her a very exquisite gift? It had everything in it, and it was all the best! But seeing such a lively scene, Yu Dan was still very jealous.

This nineteenth princess is really very profitable! But after thinking about it, it turned to Zhu Xiaobao. Isn’t it all Zhu Xiaobao’s handiwork?

So, Yu Dan stopped staying and walked towards the Cave Heaven Paradise. Now the Cave Heaven Paradise is no longer a big secret. The goods and raw materials that come in and out every day have long been clearly inspected by the spies, but

No one can go up there. So Cave Heaven Paradise is now considered a very mysterious place.

When he arrived around Dongtian Paradise, Yu Dan found that the place was heavily guarded, and he was unable to sneak in. Fortunately, the soldiers saw that he was not old, so they gave him a warning and didn't pay much attention. Yu Dan could only stay from a distance.

Watching those huge hanging boxes transporting goods up and down, but how are such big hanging boxes hoisted up? Yu Dan is a little confused, is it pulled up by force? How many people would it cost?

The more Yu Dan looked at it, the more curious she became. But how could she get closer? Yu Dan thought for a while, and then came up with an idea. She took off her backpack and put on the water support. The people on Lingyue Island are very good at water, and this

The seed water is made of shark skin, which is very gentle to rub. And the water quality of Yu Dan is the best among all.

When it got dark, Yu Dan got into the water from an inconspicuous place and swam quietly towards the Cave Heaven Paradise.

But what surprised Yu Dan was that even if it was dark, the security here was still very tight, and there was even an extra group of patrolling soldiers than during the day. There were also a few small boats going back and forth on the water. It seemed that the guards here were

The work was done very solidly and Yu Dan was left with no opportunity to take advantage of him!

In desperation, Yu Dan had no choice but to swim to the west. There seemed to be fewer people there, but when she swam to a very inconspicuous place, there was a boat parked inside. She was so familiar with this boat, even at night.

, you can see clearly through the moonlight, isn’t it the colorful ship that sank the seventh princess’s warship?

Yu Dan was overjoyed and swam quietly to the side of the colorful boat. Seeing that there was no one around, she dexterously jumped onto the colorful boat. She was so interested in this boat!
