Admiral's Mansion.
back yard.
Li Chenan took a bath, put on a white gown, and came to the pavilion in the back garden.
Sitting in the pavilion were Zhongli Ruoshui and four other girls.
The atmosphere was slightly solemn, and they did not discuss the topic they liked in the past.
To rebuild Linshui Port, it became inevitable to advance money.
As Zhongli Ruoshui, who controls the wealth of Guiyuan, she needs to talk to her sisters about this matter.
That is not her personal wealth!
It is the wealth of everyone in this family!
Everyone should have the right to know.
It's just that this is Li Chenan's decision, and they don't have the right to veto it.
Even if there were, no one would veto it.
After all, he is his own man.
No matter what, you can't refute your man's face.
"Chen An said that the start-up capital is roughly 30 million taels... He said that this money will be returned from the national treasury in the future."
Zhongli Ruoshui looked at the three of them and suddenly laughed:
"I don't know if you believe it or not."
"I don't believe it anyway."
Xia Hua didn't understand these things and asked curiously: "Why doesn't sister believe it?"
"Sister, you don't know how poor our country of Ning is!"
Zhongli Ruoshui stretched out a hand and started counting with his fingers:
"The first is agriculture... Everyone has seen along the way that he is extremely concerned about the countryside and farmers."
"He said that Ning State has a population of more than 30 million, of which more than 20 million are farmers!"
"If we want these farmers to have enough to eat and have a few taels of money left in their pockets at the end of the year, the government must make substantial investments in agriculture."
"Although I don't know what he wants to invest, it is obviously inseparable from money!"
"Today, the tax on agriculture has been halved, which means that the revenue of the Ministry of Household Affairs in this area has been halved... but it still has to invest in agriculture. For each input and output, money must be obtained from other places to make up for it. .”
Zhongli Ruoshui clapped another finger, "Second, education!"
"He said that there are nearly 30 million illiterate people in Ningguo!"
"If this person is really blind because he doesn't know how to read, has no etiquette, and doesn't understand right and wrong, his thinking and movement will be limited..."
"I don't know what farmers need to think about. Isn't it enough to just plant good crops?"
"But he said that even growing crops requires education... How many farmers' children do we have in Ningguo?"
"How many volunteer schools do we need to build? How many teachers do we need to hire?"
"This is another amount of money that is hard to estimate!"
"Thirdly...he said that Ningguo's infrastructure is too poor, that is, roads."
"He said that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads...but he abolished corvee service, which means you need to hire people to build roads!"
"How many roads are there in Ningguo?"
"How much money does it cost to build this road?"
Zhongli Ruoshui didn't clasp her fingers anymore. She shrugged and sighed:
"I still think it would be better for him to return to Guangling City and become the owner of the tavern!"
When Xiao Baozi heard this, he nodded without hesitation:
"Sister Ruoshui is right!"
"This money is enough for our family. What you said makes my head hurt. How much energy will it cost him to realize it?"
Xiao Baozi curled his lips and muttered again:
"It's too late to plow the fields, but I still care about the people of the world... It's better not to get exhausted!"
Xia Hua was very worried at this time.
Because if Li Chenan really wants to do what Zhongli Ruoshui just said, it will definitely require a lot of energy and a lot of time.
The three of them have already achieved the fruit of cultivation and have tasted the fruit, but they...
Touching Xiao on her waist, Xia Hua lowered her head slightly.
Not to mention the first love in bed, all the way, even if I wanted to show him off, I couldn't achieve it.
When he arrived in Kyoto, he concentrated on government affairs. This flute... I'm afraid he will never have the chance to play it again.
Ning Chuchu felt uneasy.
Today, as a woman who has just become him, the fortune she asked for from the Temple of the Emerald Buddha has finally come true. It is not easy.
And the taste left her with endless aftertaste, and her mind is still full of spring.
She naturally hopes that Li Chenan can spend more time with them and cultivate these few acres of fertile fields so that they can bear fruit as soon as possible.
But based on her understanding of Li Chenan, such an idea may be just an extravagant hope.
"It's better to rob... If he is too busy to take care of us after returning to the palace, I will take Ning Xiuzu to rob again!"
"I can help him rob some money and bring it back, which can be considered as sharing some of his worries."
Xiao Baozi's eyes lit up, "What a great idea!"
"I will go back to Wanxi Zhai and take my disciples to rob the people in the rivers and lakes!"
Li Chenan happened to come over and heard it, which startled him.
"Ahem..."
In the sight of the four girls, he walked into the pavilion and sat in front of the stone table.
"What are you doing? Afraid that the world will not be in chaos? Afraid that the world will not be in chaos?"
Ning Chuchu glanced at him and pouted, "It's not just to make you feel more relaxed!"
"For money?"
"if not?"
Li Chenan suddenly laughed.
What a lovely group of women!
"Don't rush!"
Xia Hua looked at Li Chenan with great resentment and muttered: "Don't be impatient... If you don't impatient, the day lily will be cold!"
Zhongli Ruoshui was more rational. She also looked at Li Chenan and asked softly but seriously:
"What if I don't become the emperor?"
"We are not vain women, and we are not reluctant to return to the garden with wealth."
"We just hope that you can write poems, make wine, walk in the snow to find plum blossoms, and go boating on Huaping Lake like you did in Guangling City..."
"Even if, as Sister Xiao said, we go to Wanxi Zhai to live in a cottage and live a simple life... I think even Princess Qin will be happier."
Li Chenan pondered for three breaths, looked at Zhongli Ruoshui and the other four, and sighed slightly:
"You know me well. I have never been a diligent person, and I have never taken the throne seriously."
"But this trip to Wu State and a trip to the border of Dahuang State made me firm in my mind to become the emperor of Ning State."
"A poor person will be bullied by others, and a poor country will be beaten by the country!"
"We can indeed live a good life, but such a life is based on the stability of Ningguo!"
"Think about it, if there is another nationwide invasion by the Xiye Kingdom, or if the Great Wilderness Kingdom's cavalry goes south, how can the Ning Kingdom resist it now?"
"Yu Wenfeng is a great hero!"
"Our Ningguo's Nine Yin City is still in Yuwenfeng's hands. I asked Su Mu to return to Yanyunguan as soon as possible because I am worried that the Great Wilderness Kingdom will knock on the pass at any time!"
"The Imperial City Division once reported that Xiye Kingdom has fifty thousand soldiers in Xiliang City, and it seems that they are also waiting for the opportunity to invade Ning Kingdom again."
"I have no choice but to form an alliance with Wu State because Ning State, with all the strength of the whole country, can only contend with Dahuang State for a while... and may not be able to stop it."
"If the country dies, how can our little family be safe?"
When Xiao Baozi heard this, his slender eyebrows raised slightly: "Isn't it really because of Princess Qin's beauty?"
Li Chenan choked, "Of course not!"
"What about Yue Kingdom?"
"Aren't you worried that the country of Yue will also invade the border?"
Zhongli Ruoshui glanced at Li Chenan resentfully and muttered:
"Yueguo?"
"There is a sheep named Duoduo in the Yue Kingdom, and she is also a princess... When will we go to the Yue Kingdom to marry Princess Duoduo back?"
woman!
State affairs are not important to them at all!
Jealousy is much stronger than the matter of subjugating the country!
Li Chenan was dumbfounded, and then he remembered Princess Hanyue of Yue Kingdom!
Her name is Zhao Hanyue, her nickname is Duoer, and her pseudonym is Yang Duoduo.
By the way, she has a pen in her hand.
The situation in Yue country is complicated now, is she still okay?
