The more His Majesty the Emperor thought about it, the more appropriate he felt. He couldn't help but smile at Concubine Rong: "This will not stop them from making money. After the reservoir is built, the fields given to them can also be turned into money. They will use it to make Zhuangzi."
It’s also very good..."
All in all, it’s all good.
Concubine Rong only said: "You should discuss this matter with Xiao'er yourself."
The emperor actually went to discuss with Qi Yunxiao. He didn't ask anyone to inform him when he went, so he saw Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao lazily eating fruit on the soft couch.
The fruit didn't come from this island at first glance. He thought the two of them had brought it from the mainland, so he didn't care and walked over with a long stride.
The two young men quickly stood up and saluted.
The emperor waved his hand: "Qingyu is sitting, Xiao'er, I want to discuss something with you."
Qi Yunxiao had no choice but to agree, but there was a hint of resentment in his tone: Is it really his father's fault for disturbing the time he spends with his wife? You'd better be in trouble!
The emperor explained his wishful thinking.
Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao glanced at each other subconsciously: It's not that the matter can't be done, and His Majesty also said that some land will be given as compensation afterwards.
But in fact, Your Majesty is a free-handed wolf.
If the reservoir is not repaired and there is no water source in those areas, what is the use of the fields? Nothing can be grown at all.
Only when the reservoir is repaired and water is available will the fields be valuable.
When he mentioned this, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly thought: "If you are interested, you can also build roads to various cities and towns."
The couple was stunned and looked at His Majesty the Emperor.
"If you are willing to build roads, I can give you land to build houses and shops on the roadside..."
Another white wolf with empty gloves.
You work for me and I give you land.
If it is just a muddy land, it is naturally worthless.
But if the road is built and more people are willing to do business, the land will be valuable.
So the overall idea of His Majesty the Emperor is: You make my land valuable, and then I will give it to you.
As expected of an emperor, his thinking is really clear and he can draw inferences from one example, so shameless.
Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao looked at each other, and there were some things that were difficult to say in front of His Majesty.
Fortunately, His Majesty is also a sensible person. He knew that such a big matter must be discussed by the couple, so he grabbed a huge apple and left.
Shen Qingyu sighed: "Well, it's not me who wants to go back, right? It's your father who wants you to go back and be a donkey, right?!"
Qi Yunxiao also sighed: "How about we just refuse?"
Shen Qingyu did not say any words of rejection.
Privately speaking, this kind of thing is naturally a lot of hard work, and it is not a big-money business, and the money does not come quickly.
For Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao, who can easily earn tens of thousands of taels of silver, this amount of money is nothing and is not worth traveling across the ocean.
But Shen Qingyu knows very clearly: This is a great thing that can benefit the national economy and people's livelihood!
If you want to be rich, build roads first.
The roads leading from major cities to the capital are maintained by government officials, which is a good thing and can be accessed by horse-drawn carriages at any time.
However, the roads leading from major towns to Fucheng are uneven.
Some prefectural cities have money and spend money to build roads and bridges.
The rest depends entirely on the common people...
In most places, the roads from villages and towns to prefectural cities are mostly mud roads, let alone the roads leading from villages to towns.
"It is feasible to build roads. You can ask His Majesty to give an order to count the population and road conditions in various prefectural cities and nearby towns, and let them report the roads that need to be built, and then decide which road to build, how much land to build, and how much land to build.
What kind of house is for sale?"
Definitely priority will be given to towns with large populations.
Putting people first is a must in every dynasty.
"Reservoirs can also be repaired, but they must be screened and selected first."
We must also prioritize population.
In a place where birds don't poop, there are only dozens or hundreds of people in total, so don't expect to build a reservoir...
All that's left is to send someone.
Dragon Guard is the most convenient.
Then there are Shen Zhongyi’s personal soldiers.
You also need some Hidden Dragon Guards, otherwise His Majesty will think that Qi Yunxiao holds the Hidden Dragon Guards in his hands and does not use them for business. He must have other ideas.
After finishing the calculation, Qi Yunxiao went to talk to His Majesty the Emperor on behalf of the couple's opinions.
Who would have thought that as soon as he left the house, he would run into His Majesty the Emperor, who was returning from there.
"Xiao'er, where do these apples come from? They taste great. Your mother likes them very much. Give me some more."
His Majesty the Emperor opened his mouth directly, and Qi Yunxiao naturally would not refuse. He turned back into the room and took out the plate of apples in front of Shen Qingyu.
There were only four big apples placed in total. His Majesty took one away and Qi Yunxiao gave him the remaining three.
"You eat first. If you still want to eat, just ask us for it."
The emperor nodded and asked as if he was remembering something: "Were these apples brought from Daqi? Where did they buy them? I asked the local people to pay some tribute to the palace. This way your mother can eat them often."
You are so greedy!
You even want someone to pay tribute for your daughter-in-law’s space!
Qi Yunxiao: "...not from Da Qi, but from overseas countries."
His Majesty the Emperor was disappointed and confused: "Is it from overseas?"
Could it be that some merchant ship that went to sea brought it back?
The father and son talked while walking. After Qi Yunxiao explained his and Shen Qingyu's thoughts, His Majesty the Emperor nodded: "This is feasible. I will write down the secret and ask people to take it back to work on it first."<
/p>
The matter was settled. As soon as the two of them walked to the door of the study, a soldier rushed over!
"Your Majesty, this is your letter."
His Majesty the Emperor took a look at the fire seal on the letter, his expression changed slightly, he stuffed the apple into Qi Yunxiao's arms, took the letter and opened it.
After a while, His Majesty was so angry that his chest felt like a bellows!
"What a good son I am!"
At this critical moment, Qi Yunxiao obediently remained silent and looked down at the apples, as if the apples he held in his hands were carved from the finest gemstones and were worthy of careful appreciation.
But His Majesty the Emperor had no intention of asking him to stay out of the matter. He threw the letter to Qi Yunxiao: "Look! Come up with a countermeasure quickly."
Before Qi Yunxiao could react, he snatched the apple from Qi Yunxiao's hand and entered the study like a whirlwind.
Qi Yunxiao opened the letter and read it, and was stunned!
The letter said that the result of the struggle between his cheap brother Heng Wang and Prince Gong who was supposed to be a monster in the capital has come out. At present, it seems that the usually more reserved Prince Gong has temporarily won, and he wants to kill Prince Heng in the name of rebellion.
.
King Heng was at a disadvantage and actually came to Jingluo Island. He is now on the boat and is expected to land today!
But King Heng never expected that his own father, who was said to be recuperating in a certain miracle doctor's hut, would also be here.
