"Um!"
Zhu Di nodded slightly, then realized something and became furious, "But these Mongolians are dishonest and causing trouble in Wanping County?"
Guo Andao: "Your Highness, I have not heard of their bad deeds!"
Zhu Di asked: "What happened?"
Guo Andao: "Your Highness, those Mongolians turned the entire Qinghuanfang into a swarm of hogs, even worse than a swarm of hogs!"
"Um?"
Zhu Di's eyes widened immediately, "How is this possible?"
Guo An continued: "There are dozens of them now, and because of the foul smell in the house, they are all suffering from diseases, and the doctors can't diagnose and treat them even if they want to.
Before the diagnosis and treatment of the Mongolian in this house was completed, the Mongolian in the house next door fell ill again.
In this way, at least a dozen people will get sick every day..."
Zhu Di was a little unbelievable, "Are these Mongolians all pigs?"
Guo Andao: "Your Highness, the pig pens on the farm are cleaner than those Mongolian residences."
Zhu Di said with a solemn expression: "We must punish them severely and clean the house, otherwise the Mongolians will continue to be sick, and it may cause a major epidemic!"
"Your Highness is wise!"
Guo An nodded slightly, and then said with a serious face: "Your Highness, soldiers should be sent to supervise them.
At the same time, Wei Chen also discovered that there were not many huts on the streets of Beiping Prefecture.
Wei Chen wants to build two latrines for women and two latrines for men in the entire city of Beiping, especially in every workshop!
Moreover, these huts are free of charge..."
"No charge?"
Zhu Di looked at Guo An with some surprise, "Why did Guo Qing suddenly think of this and come here? We remember that there are latrines available in those workshops."
Guo An replied: "Your Highness, great epidemics have been caused since ancient times because of the foul smell from ditches and houses.
Although the ditches in Beiping Fucheng have been smoothed and repaired with cement, the streets in Beiping Fucheng are still often extremely dirty.
Especially those huts in the market are just digging a hole in the ground, building a straw shed, and surrounding it with a guardrail... Every time after the rain, you can often smell a strong and pungent fishy smell on the street...
Wei Chen is worried that if this situation continues, when the bad odor accumulates to a certain extent, it will cause a major epidemic.
Although it is possible that Wei Chen's worries are unfounded, Wei Chen feels that it is worth spending some money to clean up the environment in Beiping City.
in case……"
"Furthermore, Wei Chen feels that our Prince Yan's Mansion has built toilets for free in the city of Beiping Mansion. The excrement water from those toilets can be used by our Prince Yan's Mansion alone. These are good fertilizers. As long as they are used properly, they are also a good amount of money!
It is even possible to earn back the money spent on building toilets.
In addition, a royal order should also be issued to prohibit those people from dumping garbage at will. If they are caught, they will be slapped with a slap in the face or fined! "
Zhu Di nodded slightly: "In that case, then follow Guo Qing's wishes!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Guo An's face lit up and he tentatively asked again: "Can Your Highness order the people in the entire Beiping Mansion to take baths frequently and only drink boiled water?"
Zhu Di glanced at Guo An and said, "Guo Qing, the common people don't have enough money to eat. Where do they get the money to buy firewood and boil water? Or, buy water for bathing?"
"well……"
Guo An sighed slightly, "Your Highness, I'll go deal with the free public huts first!"
"Guo Qing, please don't."
Zhu Di suddenly called out to Guo An.
Guo An asked in surprise: "I wonder if your highness has anything else to do?"
Zhu Di said: "My father asked Ying Guogong Fu Youde to compile new sergeants and train them in Daning. Although it is to prevent the Northern Yuan Tatars from raiding the border, we always feel that my father will have to attack the Northern Army in the next two years." The Yuan court mobilizes troops!"
Guo An asked: "Your Highness wants to go and conquer Beiyuan?"
Zhu Di said: "As the King of Yan, it is our duty to conquer Beiyuan for the Ming Dynasty!"
Guo An thought for a while and then asked: "Your Highness, I heard that Duke Song has been confiscated by your Majesty as the general seal and ordered to live in Fengyang!"
"Um!"
Zhu Di nodded slightly without explaining much.
Guo An added: "Your Highness, I think your Majesty may send Marquis Yongchang as the main general during the next Northern Expedition!"
Zhu Di looked surprised, "Lanyu, how can he be the general?"
Guo Andao: "Your Highness, Lan Yu is brave and good at fighting. What's more important is that Lan Yu is close to His Highness the Prince!"
"..."
Zhu Di looked depressed.
Guo An said: "Your Highness, the Emperor of Beiyuan has run away for unknown distance, and as long as His Highness is not the general, no matter how much property, cattle and sheep are captured, he will not enter the warehouse of my Prince Yan...
Your Highness, Goryeo still owes me Prince Yan’s Mansion 210,000 taels of silver..."
Zhu Di waved his hands with an irritated look, "Okay, okay, we'll discuss this later!"
"Wei Chen resigns!"
Guo An leaves.
…
"Build a hut?"
After hearing what Guo An said, Jin Zhong looked surprised.
"Chang Shi, our majestic Prince Yan's Mansion actually built huts in the entire city of Beiping...Chang Shi, if this matter spreads out, the noble courtiers of the Ming Dynasty and even many vassals will laugh at His Highness Prince Yan...
Chang Shi, when that time comes, Your Highness will definitely be in trouble for you! "
Guo An waved his hand casually: "It's just a few huts built, why are they laughing at His Highness?
Besides, which city in the Ming Dynasty didn’t have a hut for travelers to pay their respects? "
"Okay, go take care of this matter now.
Those huts in various houses, they are willing to sell them to me. Prince Yan's Mansion is the best. If not, then you can take people to buy houses or find open space where huts can be built. Each hut must have two huts, one for a woman only. A hut, a hut for men only, inside each hut...
After the huts are built, special people need to take care of them. The excrement under these huts can be sold to the big families who farm, or it can be transported to the farms...
In addition, every shop must have a garbage dumping pond or a cart to keep the streets clean.
Moreover, the garbage dumped by the people can be collected and used to make fertilizer..."
"Yes, Guo Changshi!"
Jin Zhong responded helplessly.
After thinking for a while, Guo An asked again: "Is there enough cement in the workshop?"
Jin Zhong quickly replied: "Go back to Guo Changshi, the cement in the workshop is probably enough!"
Guo An nodded slightly: "Also, after these huts are built, houses will be built in the open space around the academy.
If there is not enough cement, we can recruit craftsmen or hire ordinary people, so we don’t have to save money..."
Jin Zhong responded quickly: "I understand, villain!"
"Um!"
Guo An nodded with satisfaction and asked Jin Zhong to step back.
Soon, there was a reaction in Beiping Mansion.
First, word spread about the Mongolians' illness.
This caused panic among the people of the entire Beiping Mansion.
Both the Chief Envoy and the Inspectorate sent people to inquire.
After Guo An explained, the whole Beiping Mansion was temporarily stable.
In the following days, word spread that Prince Yan's Mansion was going to build huts in various buildings in Beiping City.
Meanwhile, some rumors were spreading.
"His Royal Highness King Yan feels that filthy smells can easily make people sick, so he wants to spend tens of thousands of taels of silver to vigorously clean the streets of Beiping Prefecture!"
"His Royal Highness King Yan feels that the city of Beiping is too filthy and filthy. Not only do we need to build huts, but we also need to build a pool specifically for dumping garbage. The people are not allowed to throw garbage and stolen goods on the streets wantonly..."
"His Royal Highness King Yan wants to clean up the city of Beiping. Anyone who dares to pollute the neighbors will be severely punished!"
"The Mongols in Qinghuanfang were slapped in the face by His Highness King Yan just because they didn't clean their houses properly!"
"Your Highness confiscated the Mongols' money!"
"Your Highness punished the Mongolians to take a bath together... Your Highness punished the Mongolians..."
…
In less than half a month, the news of Beiping Mansion also reached the ears of Lao Zhu, the capital master.
Lao Zhu looked at the memorial written by the imperial guards and the patrolling censor in his hands, his eyes filled with relief.
"Biao'er, the fourth child has finally become sensible! He no longer only cares about letting people in the family become merchants to make money, but also starts to pay attention to the small things in the daily lives of the people in his domain!"
Zhu Biao, who is getting fatter by the day, also has a smile on his face, "These are all due to dad's teachings!"
Lao Zhu smiled softly, then thought of something, and his eyes were filled with anger.
"Are those bastards Second and Third still so violent and tormenting the people?"
Zhu Biao said quickly: "Father, please calm down. After my father's instructions, the second, second and third sons also realized their mistakes and restrained themselves a lot."
Lao Zhu said angrily: "These bastards, we rose from the rebellion of a cowherd boy to the throne. Now, they are still imitating the violent behavior. If they don't restrain themselves, one day they will eat To the bitter end!”
Zhu Biao said: "Don't worry, father. After the children return, I will write another letter to the second and third children to teach them a lesson."
"Um!"
Lao Zhu nodded slightly.
"When will the envoy from Koryo come next time?"
Zhu Biao replied: "If I want to return to my father, I will count it according to days, and it will only last a few days."
Lao Zhu said: "When the Korean envoys come, scold them severely. They are so untrustworthy and dare to owe me, Prince Daming, money?"
When the time comes, remember to remind us that we will also give an order to the King of Korea and scold them severely, a bunch of wolf-hearted things...
If you don't obey, we will let Tang He drive all the Japanese pirates to their country of Korea...
Wreak havoc on them! "
"..."
Zhu Biao looked helpless.
His father was sometimes very patient with those small foreign vassal countries, but sometimes he was a little bit stingy.
I hope the Kingdom of Koryo will be wiser. Two hundred and one hundred thousand taels of silver, plus interest, will be at least two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver!
With so much money, you dare to act rogue in the first year?
Zhu Biao's calculation of some days was quite accurate. Sure enough, just after the tenth day, the envoys of the Koryo Kingdom came to the capital.
However, the envoy of Korea had changed his envoy at some point, and it was not the previous envoy.
However, during the interview, Lao Zhu still cursed dozens of times, which almost made the envoy cry, fearing that Lao Zhu would exile them to Qionghai.
After crying for a quarter of an hour and making some promises, Lao Zhu let them go.
After staying in Beiping Mansion for a few more days, the Korean envoy hurried to Beiping Mansion.
"Your Highness, the envoy from Korea is here?"
In Prince Yan's Mansion, after Guo An received the news, he looked for Zhu Di with curiosity.
"Um!"
Zhu Di nodded slightly.
Guo An asked again: "Your Highness, I wonder if the Korean envoy can bring money!"
Zhu Di's face turned cold, "We heard that the Goryeo envoy cried out in public at Fengtian Palace about how miserable Goryeo was. If he hadn't known that Goryeo still owed us so much money, my father would have been tempted to reward them with more money. !”
"..."
