How smart is Nan Yu?
"Don't worry, Sister-in-law Jiu, I know that the fiefdom also needs money for construction, so I won't have any ideas."
Everyone can say nice things, but He Zhiran doesn't believe that anyone can resist the temptation of high profits.
Anyway, she and Mo Jiuye have nothing to worry about. They have a lot of bombs in their hands. Nan Yu knew this when he defeated Nanjiang and the barbarians six years ago.
Nan Yu chose not to ask, which shows that he has a brain, because even if he did, Mo Jiuye and his wife would not hand over the method of making bombs, which would inevitably make people feel wary.
The group of people continued walking. Along the way, Nan Yu kept asking questions.
"Sister-in-law Jiu, is this where the snow-white paper you see on the market came from?"
"Yes, there are two paper mills in the northwest. The white paper you mentioned is used for writing. There is also a new paper mill set up in the front, which produces paper towels."
Speaking of this tissue, Nan Yu is no stranger to it either.
Because Tang Mingrui knew how to handle things, he immediately sent someone to deliver some of each kind to Nan Yu as soon as he got the agency rights for the tissues.
Tang Mingrui thinks this paper towel is so easy to use. It is so easy to use when going to the toilet...
"Tissues are indeed a good thing." Nan Yu couldn't help but praise.
Keep walking, keep asking.
"Is this a cannery?"
"Yes, there is a huge amount of self-produced fruit in the northwest mountains. In order to sell it to further places, I came up with this idea."
"So this is a sugar factory? A place that specializes in making that kind of soft white sugar?"
"Yes, I found that the cultivated land on the barbarian side is not suitable for growing crops, but the yield of sugar cane is extremely high, so I asked the people there to plant more sugar cane to make soft white sugar."
Nan Yu kept nodding as he heard this, and he knew in his heart that Mo Jiuye didn't have such a mind. These ideas must have been thought up by He Zhiran. What does a husband want from a wife like this?
Think about his harem again. Although the number of people in his harem is not large, those people only dress up and seduce him every day...
There is no other way, he also wants to spread the branches and leaves of the royal family, otherwise he would not care about those vulgar fans.
Nan Yu's thoughts changed quickly. He understood the principle of seeking political power in his position best. Now was not the time to think about that. When he came to the northwest, he felt that there was no one in the court who could talk to him freely, so he thought Although they didn't communicate much with Mo Jiuye, they always maintained an equal attitude.
In addition, he also heard a lot of rumors about the northwest. Some people said that the economy of the northwest has been countless times better than Dashun.
Someone else told him that all the goods sourced by Dashun Emperor Tang Mingrui's business now come from the northwest. He wanted to see how Mo Jiuye and his wife did this in just a few years.
The most important purpose is that he also wants to lead a better life for the people under his rule. Many things that he had not thought of may suddenly become clear to him when he arrives in the northwest.
This is indeed the case. He saw factories for making refined salt, garment factories, pickle factories, breweries, tea factories, etc. in the northwest.
Not only are these factories and workshops capable of creating unlimited profits, but in terms of the environment in the northwest, Dashun cannot compare.
Not only that, he couldn't see any idle land in the northwest, and even the surrounding mountains were all properly utilized.
The houses where ordinary people live are all made of bricks and tiles, and are even as grand as the wealthy areas of the capital.
Of course, this kind of style is just the style of the house. In terms of area, the residences of these common people cannot be compared with the homes of the powerful people in the capital.
This is enough. What does he want from the hard work he does every day as the emperor?
Don’t you just want the people of Dashun to live a good life?
Although he couldn't imitate all the money-making techniques used by Mo Jiuye and his wife, there were still many places worth learning.
After returning, he will encourage the people to reclaim more wasteland and turn those wastelands into treasures as soon as possible.
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran have never been stingy about these high-yielding grains. As long as they don't affect the crops in the northwest economy, they can give Nanyu a favor.
In fact, they have been doing this for a long time, and now these high-yielding grains are also grown in Dashun. In recent years, both people's homes and the national treasury have stored grain.
Even if there is an occasional famine, not only can the court allocate a large amount of food for disaster relief, but the people themselves can also help themselves.
Therefore, in the few years since Nanyu ascended the throne, people have never starved to death again.
Although Dashun did not develop as quickly as the northwest, the fact that the people did not starve to death shows that Nanyu's achievements were outstanding.
Also, there are grassland areas in Dashun. After returning, he will also follow Mo Jiuye's example and encourage people to raise horses, cattle and sheep in large numbers.
Because the number of horses, cattle and sheep raised in the northwest region, including the barbarian territory, is gradually increasing, Nanyu has broken the rule that no cattle are allowed to be slaughtered.
Mo Jiuye once said in Zhezi that the cattle they raise are beef cattle, which are for people to eat.
Moreover, he has also tasted the beef jerky sent from the northwest many times, and the taste is simply amazing, much more delicious than the pork he usually eats.
Nanyu can learn from each other's strengths and offset his weaknesses, and he will never let some unreasonable old rules affect his thinking.
He also planned to come to the northwest to discuss the matter of beef cattle breeding with Mo Jiuye. The purpose was to introduce some calves so that the people of Dashun could also engage in breeding.
In short, it can be said that Nan Yu benefited a lot after following Mo Jiuye and his wife around the northwest.
Although he was traveling incognito, he was still the most respected person in the country, so Mo Jiuye naturally had to treat him with the highest standards.
Although there are countless delicacies on the Northwest Commercial Street, everyone knows that there is still a big gap between these and the delicacies produced by the palace chefs.
Nanyu wants to live in the palace, so he will naturally have his meals there.
After walking for so long, they were indeed a little tired, so Mo Jiuye suggested going back to the palace to rest.
As soon as I walked into the palace and walked around several corridors, I heard a burst of children's cheers.
"Brother Zhu'er is mighty..."
"Brother Zhu'er is so awesome..."
I saw a little boy who looked six or seven years old standing on the martial arts stage in the middle of the huge open space.
Zhu'er stood upright, holding a long sword that matched his stature, and stared at the children of all sizes in the audience with a serious face.
"Who else is challenging?" Although the voice was childish, there was a solemn air unique to those in power.
The twenty-odd children in the audience all looked up at the stage, their eyes filled with admiration.
At this time, Yu'er came over here carrying a basket of fruits.
"Your Majesty, you have led all the young masters and ladies to practice all afternoon. Come and eat some fruit to quench your thirst."
