Chapter 742: Going to the Feast

At noon, Xiao Shuyue let people start to eat, everyone thought they were eating some rice porridge or something, but they didn't expect Xiao Shuyue to prepare dry rice and rice porridge for them, they could choose, the dishes on the side actually had meat dishes, these people couldn't help but be a little surprised, these grains are actually not so expensive, just because in the west, they are held in the hands of several major families, so it is precious, but now is not a famine year, so these things can be eaten by ordinary families, but these people are tears to stay。

"It's been a long time...... I don't even know what meat tastes like. ”

One of them was wearing a black horse coat, his face was still a little dirty, and his hands were also swarthy, but the moment he ate the meat, he actually cried, Xiao Shuyue saw this scene, and her heart was a little heavy, but more than that, she was dissatisfied with several major families.

Now is not a period of war, there is no year of famine, under the governance of the emperor, the country is peaceful and the country is rich and strong, but in this case, there are people who cry because of eating a bite of meat, you can imagine how bitter these big families have restricted the people here over the years.

Xiao Shuyue actually didn't understand it at night, if she really wanted to leave, in fact, if you go out, it is the same to survive in other places, after all, the restrictions of several major families here are too serious, but then Xiao Shuyue knew that it was not that they were unwilling to go out, but that in the early years, there were bandits everywhere here, if they went out, it was still a question whether they could survive, and there were very few Liu Ke and bandits because of Xiao Shuyue over the years, but these people were already afraid of the outside world, so they didn't go out。

Hearing this, Xiao Shuyue couldn't help but sigh a little, in fact, in the final analysis, it is because of the lack of education here, the people here are almost still in the uncivilized stage, and they may have become accustomed to something outside, which is already very special here.

And after lunch, these people have a lot more strength to do things, this cave is also dug very fast, Xiao Shuyue has the intention to build this place into an official road, all these raw materials are Xiao Shuyue personally seen, plus the people brought by Xiao Shuyue to deal with it, so no one should want to hide from Xiao Shuyue.

These things are done by several major families watching Xiao Shuyue, just a few days, almost half of these projects have been done, the people of several major families are a little panicked, now they have a lot of food in their hands, and now Xiao Shuyue is selling cheap food every day, resulting in many people not buying from them at all, plus the people around Xiao Shuyue who go to work are almost all able to come out of the slums at the beginning, these people have Xiao Shuyue to supply food on weekdays, and they will not buy food at all, and seeing that this road is about to be built, after it is repaired, the country will inevitably let some merchants come in in the future, and there are also some people who know the price of the products outside, and when the time comes...... Whether or not their products can be sold is a question.

Only now did they start to worry that their products could not be sold now, and they finally lowered the price of their products, but now people are concentrating on starting to build roads, and they are not worried about these prices at all, and Xiao Shuyue only smiled after knowing that several major families had lowered prices, what if the price was reduced? Nowadays, the people are very resistant to these families, as long as they can not buy these families, they almost try to avoid them, so these families want to rely on these things to let the people buy their products again, and it is not intended to be a fool's dream.

And after Xiao Shuyue accelerated the process, the tunnel was dug faster and faster, and these mountains were also specially reinforced by Xiao Shuyue, which made people rely on the torches in the palace every day to avoid anyone not being able to see the road, of course, the money was directly taken from the government, and in the future, these torches could be let the government find a special person to guard them, and watch these to prevent the lights from suddenly running out.

Thinking about it, Xiao Shuyue still thinks that the lighting in the past is good, but Xiao Shuyue doesn't plan to do it, there are some things, just let it be, even if it's candlelight now, isn't it good?

One tunnel after another was dug out, and all the people were filled with this happy smile on their faces during this time, watching this road take shape little by little in their hands, which was also a spontaneous sense of glory for them, plus Xiao Shuyue gave them good food every day, these people not only did not lose weight under these high-intensity manual labor, but became stronger, and some even gained weight.

These made Xiao Shuyue nod with satisfaction.

And at this time, several major families wanted to see Xiao Shuyue again, but Xiao Shuyue was at the scene of road construction every day, and with these laborers, she didn't have time to hook up with these people.

Who is Xiao Shuyue?

In fact, what the Wang family said was right before, they were people from the capital, nobles who might not be seen in their lifetime on weekdays, it was their blessing to be able to appear here, and they actually thought that Xiao Shuyue could make some forbearance with them? They are just dreaming.

Thinking that Xiao Shuyue is a woman, she doesn't need to be taken seriously, if Xiao Shuyue has no ability, can she make the emperor override public opinion and protect Xiao Shuyue?

Man...... You can be short-sighted, but you can't be short-sighted

A woman who can make all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty fearful, how can ordinary people compare?

"Lord Xiao, several major families have a banquet tonight, and I want to invite you over. The prefect was beside Xiao Shuyue and said in a low voice.

Xiao Shuyue said lightly: "I don't have time, let them get it at will." ”

"Your Excellency...... Wouldn't that be a bit bad? ”

Xiao Shuyue looked at the prefect lightly, and said helplessly: "Prefect, do you know why you have not been able to deal with several major families all these years? ”

The prefect looked at Xiao Shuyue, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Xiao Shuyue said lightly: "Okay, don't be embarrassed, to put it bluntly, I'm very busy and don't have so much spare time." ”

Seeing that Xiao Shuyue didn't want to change her mind, the prefect had no choice but to leave.

After telling this passage to the people of several major families, the people of several major families were silent, is Xiao Shuyue arrogant? Very arrogant, has always been arrogant, but what can these people do? In fact, they can't do anything, Xiao Shuyue herself is more noble than them, what reason do they have...... Do you have to go to the banquet?
