If another large granary is built in Weiqing County, not only will the business of Li's shop be better, but the lives of the local people will also be improved.
Li Qiao hopes that the big granary will be built next year.
He studied computers in his previous life, and his professional skills are completely useless in this world. He personally is unable to build a steam engine to promote the industrial revolution. What he can do is to plant more trees and make the world greener.
Build more roads in this world to make people's travel easier.
Dig more ditches and rivers to build waterwheels to make irrigation more convenient for farmers.
Build more workshops and open shops in various places to provide employment for local people and increase their income.
Build more schools and charity halls so that orphans of local people can be taken care of and the elderly can have someone to rely on.
As for the management of the Yellow River, this has been postponed for the time being.
He has to go to Jibei Province next year to have a look. The severe drought Gao Zhiyuan mentioned did not happen this year. Will it happen next year?
The weather was cold, and the ice on the Grand Canal was very thick, but it was not so cold that people were reluctant to go out. Therefore, the Grand Canal was still very lively, and many people went to skate on the river.
The three little guys, Li Xiaorui, Li Yunfan and Li Changfeng, also wanted to play, but Li Qiao still disagreed. If he didn't keep an eye on it personally, he would be worried.
The three little guys couldn't help but start thinking.
Li Yunfan, a child, has his mind set on the little grandson again. Well, if they go skating with the little grandson, then his father can't stop him, right?
Xiao Yunfan fully realized the mistake he made last time, so this time he, Li Changfeng and Li Xiaorui formally went to the eldest prince's mansion and expressed in a steady and somewhat reserved manner that they wanted to invite the little emperor's grandson to the eldest prince's mansion. Ice skating on the canal.
The Li family didn't have much contact with the eldest prince, but now the three little guys came to the door seriously and made an invitation with a serious look, which surprised the eldest prince.
Yes, it was the eldest prince himself who received the three of them.
However, seeing the three little guys looking calm but actually nervous, the eldest prince smiled softly and agreed on Sheng Shiyu's behalf.
Xiao Yunfan sat on the large Taishi chair. Because he was not tall, his feet could not touch the ground, but his small body sat upright, and his small hands rested on his thighs seemingly casually.
But within a few words, his little hands grabbed the cotton robe on the thigh and wrinkled it slightly.
The eldest prince noticed this small detail, which showed that Xiao Yunfan was not stupid and bold.
If you know in your heart that you are timid, it doesn't matter if you are more lively and showy on weekdays.
Come to think of it, how could a son taught by Li Qiao be so ignorant?
Since it was Xiao Yunfan who took the initiative to get involved, he was happy to see the results.
Although Li Qiao is young, his status in his father's heart has far surpassed that of several bachelors. His father not only does not suspect Li Qiao's good deeds that can gather people's hearts, but also supports them.
Coupled with his father's rescue behavior when Li Qiao was trapped in the border town last time, he can be sure that if he marries the Li family, he will be one step closer to the throne.
Besides, Xiao Yunfan and his Xiao Yu are quite close. When he was young, Xiao Yunfan "picked up" kites and rubber balls that Xiao Yu passed by.
The eldest prince agreed to this, and the three little guys returned home happily. Hey, let's see how their father/uncle objects!
When Li Qiao came home from get off work, he learned that the three little guys had given him such a big surprise. He immediately felt helpless like the last time when Xiao Yunfan hit the little emperor's grandson.
He was so brave that he dared to go directly to the eldest prince's mansion.
But now that the eldest prince had agreed, he could only pinch the faces of the three little guys and pull them lightly a few times, and then told them to be careful in their words and deeds in front of the eldest prince, and to be self-restrained and polite. Just do whatever you want at home.
Tao Zhu was a little surprised when he saw this. He thought Li Qiao would teach the three of them a lesson.
Li Qiao didn't stop the three of them from interacting with Sheng Shiyu?
After the two little guys fell asleep, he and Li Qiao went to the shower room to take a bath. He asked his doubts: "Aren't you afraid that Yun Fan and the little emperor's grandson will have an affair with their childhood sweethearts?"
Li Qiao shook his head as he untied his heavy cloak and said, "What are you afraid of? Yunfan is free. He didn't get into trouble anyway. He can do whatever he wants."
"If he really falls in love with the little emperor's grandson in the end, then with my identity, I will definitely be able to secure him the position of a true king."
A true king is equivalent to a woman’s queen.
"...The little emperor's grandson will definitely have many concubines and concubines at that time."
Tao Zhu couldn't help but stop unbuttoning his buttons, and his eyebrows wrinkled.
He didn't want his little Yunfan to compete with others for men.
Even if the other party is the emperor, he is not willing.
What's so good about being one of the emperor's harem?
He would rather Xiao Yunfan open his own harem and have a few more men.
"Yunfan is too young. Whatever we say now is in vain. Just let nature take its course. I don't believe Yunfan is used to our relationship and will be able to tolerate his husband taking concubines in the future."
"Let's brainwash him more from now on."
Li Qiao was not worried about this.
It is said that parents are their children's best teachers. Under the words and deeds of him and Tao Zhu, Xiao Yunfan would definitely not want to share a man with anyone else.
Now that Xiao Yunfan is only six and a half years old, he doesn't want to make rules and regulations for Xiao Yunfan all day long. He can't do this, and he can't do that.
As long as he doesn't cause any trouble, Xiao Yunfan will let his temperament come to him.
If he really falls in love in the future, then he and Tao Zhu can learn from Li Liang's mentality. If he chooses it, he will live with it.
But, as Xiao Yunfan's father, he must be responsible for Xiao Yunfan.
He stretched out his fingers and gently rubbed Tao Zhu's furrowed eyebrows, and then said with a smile: "We can't do nothing. We have to broaden Yunfan's horizons. If we meet more good men, then we won't be able to do anything in the future." It can be easily deceived."
As soon as these words came out, Tao Zhu was surprised at first, and then with bright eyes, he kissed him first, then put his arms around his neck and asked him: "What do you want to do?"
"I decided to hold more competitions in the future to let Yunfan know who he is among the best among his peers."
"In the future, let's take Yunfan out for more walks and see the world outside. He will definitely not want to stay in the back house in the future."
These two plans made Tao Zhu's eyes brighter, and he couldn't help but hold Li Qiao's cheek and kiss him several times.
Li Qiao has more options.
It does not suppress Xiao Yunfan's current temperament, but also prevents Xiao Yunfan from falling in love.
Li Qiao is so good at being a father!
Li Qiao accepted all of Tao Zhu's kisses. The temperature in the shower room was already high, and soon the temperature rose even higher.
When the two of them went out, Li Qiao was fully dressed, but Tao Zhu was wrapped in a quilt and carried back to the house.
The cold wind howled outside, and the couple had a good night's sleep.
Chapter 258: Building an Orphanage and Free Private School, full trivia, you can skip
The three little guys were very happy after successfully making an appointment with the little emperor's grandson. Although the eldest prince stipulated that the little emperor's grandson could go out with them once every seven days, but these seven days were staggered with Li Qiao's summer vacation, which is equivalent to saying The three of them can go to the Grand Canal twice in a week.
Cool!
It’s worth the brainstorming!
The eldest prince is so considerate~
Sheng Shiyu didn't expect that his father would allow him to go skating. After being happy, he couldn't help but think carefully about his father's intentions.
This is not like his father's style.
He wanted to participate in bicycle racing before, but his father was reluctant.
After he won the first place in the cycling competition, his father's requirements for him were stricter than before. He would study in the morning, practice martial arts in the afternoon, and only have one day off every half month.
But now he is allowed to go skating with Li's three younger brothers?
As a child of the royal family, even though he was only nine years old, he already knew a lot of things. He quickly guessed the reason.
But I couldn't believe it.
He quietly asked his mother, but his mother only told him to have fun and not think about the rare opportunity.
He couldn't get the answer he wanted, but he already had the answer in his mind.
It must be as he suspected.
this……
Thinking of Xiao Yunfan combing his buns and shaking his head, he couldn't help but clenched his fists and worked hard to keep the corners of his mouth from curling up in a happy arc.
Brother Yunfan is indeed super cute and lively~
The little face looks so easy to pinch!
He had never skated before, so he had to practice hard and not make a fool of himself in front of Yunfan's younger brother.
While the little ones were focusing on skating, Li Qiao seriously started the calligraphy competition.
His requirement for Xiao Yunfan is to master planting, medicine, hunting and other skills on the basis of both civil and military skills.
Therefore, the first thing he held was a calligraphy competition.
Although the art of calligraphy requires talent, it also requires hard work. If the calligraphy is good, it must be the sweat of others.
This kind of result that cannot be obtained by speculation can test a person's true level.
So after the bicycle race, the first competition he held was a calligraphy competition.
No matter what your status is, as long as you can write well, you can participate.
As for age, anyone can participate as long as they are between seven and fourteen years old.
Considering that social beasts like Xin Zhi were special cases of targeting junior high school students, he relaxed his age a lot. He didn't mind that Xiao Yunfan's husband was a few years older than Xiao Yunfan.
The prizes are not huge, but they are quite attractive. The first place is two hundred taels of silver + a one-year Lijia Shop 40% off membership card + the latest bicycle.
The second place is one hundred taels of silver + a one-year Lijia Shop membership card with a 39% discount + a latest bicycle.
The third place is fifty taels of silver + a one-year Lijia Shop membership card with a 25% discount + a latest bicycle.
Although bicycles have been around for more than two years, they are still as popular as ever. The ratio of horse-drawn carriages to bicycles on the streets is now almost five to one.
Compared with the slow horse-drawn carriage, the bicycle is not only fast, but also cool, which can satisfy some people's vanity.
So Li Qiao took out the latest bicycle as a prize, which was absolutely sincere.
As for the one-year membership card, it is actually very attractive.
