Early in the morning, Edward was dressed up by his maid Lucy, wearing a bright red wool cloak, and slowly left the city of London in a low-key carriage with black gold trim under the escort of a group of guards.

In February 1550, although winter London quietly entered spring, the capricious weather in England still made people speechless.

A drizzle of rain in the morning, another hour of sun at noon, then a light rain, or cloudy.

Anyway, the weather in England can't be uniform in one day, and if you have to find one, it's only temperature.

In the spring, the temperature in England reached 18 degrees, which was slightly chilly, but the wet weather made it inappropriate to add a coat.

At this time, the cloak came into people's sight, and this kind of convenient and warm clothes soon became a popular spring dress.

Of course, this was only the trouble of the nobles and gentlemen, but the ordinary people of England were praying to God to celebrate the winter of hunger and cold.

And the so-called trouble of dressing never rose in their minds, whether it was winter or spring, thin linen clothes were still their only choice.

At present, only food is their constant worry and biggest need.

Especially in England, the population skyrocketed, coupled with the inflation in the later years of Henry VIII, the price of food rose repeatedly, and the life of the common people became more and more difficult.

Sitting in the royal family's low-key and luxurious carriage, Edward half-lifted the curtains on the carriage and saw passers-by walking slowly, most of them with thin faces, with the bitterness of life at the corners of their mouths, very quickly avoiding the moving carriage.

Although there was no royal insignia on the carriage, the dignified guards rode tall horses and guarded them cautiously, and there was no need to guess that the carriage was a dignitary.

The citizens of London have become accustomed to all this, and the only option they have is to walk and see the carriage, to move their steps and to avoid it carefully.

Edward was also accustomed to this, and he couldn't help but shake his head when he saw the civilians looking yellow and thin.

At present, prices in England are relatively stable, but the price of grain is rising all the way.

Moreover, the increase in newborns has increased the burden on each family a lot, and English families who could have been able to maintain themselves near the subsistence line have suddenly fallen into the precipice of hunger.

So, in the alleys of London, in the sewers, and even by the River Thames, abandoned babies can be seen every now and then.

In this regard, even though Edward introduced a new farming method in the crown territories, the price of food in England still rose as historically.

And what can give Edward some comfort is that the price is not as crazy as in history, saving a lot of people.

As for the abandoned baby, Edward could only send members of the royal family to continue the adoption.

Thanks to years of adoption, the popularity of the Tudor royal family rose dramatically in London and in the nearby counties, and King Edward's reputation as a caring king spread widely.

It can be said that at present, the influence of the Tudor royal family in London surpasses that of any previous royal family in England.

It could even be said that it was no match for the prestige of the City of London, but it was subservient to the Church.

After all, London is a city of many disasters, and for more than 100 years, under the premise that there is no guarantee of personal safety, either plague or fire, religion is the most important comfort for people.

And the adoption of orphans, which has lasted for many years, has also had great results.

For nearly six years, the orphans' camp at Windsor Castle could no longer accommodate it.

In this regard, Edward specially divided a manor with an area of 1,000 acres as a camp for orphans.

So far, the camp has adopted nearly 20,000 children, most of whom are under the age of 12.

Orphans who have reached the age of sixteen have walked out of nearly a thousand people, among whom outstanding talents, some have entered the Guards, some have entered the Blood Blade, and some have become guards.

The more mediocre people entered the Royal Bank, after all, at present, there are too few literate people, and the participation of orphans is a good supplement to the lack of manpower in the development of the bank.

All in all, the decision Edward made in the first place is now reinforcing his own foundation.

A few days ago, Edward also listened to Luna's report that the entire orphanage camp now has more than 5,000 people receiving education (brainwashing), and the food consumed every month has reached 50,000 pounds, and the cost figure has also reached 2,000 pounds, which is still the result of food self-sufficiency.

Those clothes, books, teachers, and all kinds of daily consumption are all borne by the royal family.

In view of the increasing expenses after that, it is difficult to continue to support it with the income of the royal family.

So, our King made reforms.

First, he had the Royal Bank open an account for each orphan, record their average expenses, and then pay them back at five percent interest when they left the orphans' camp.

On average, the Tudor royal family would have spent at least twenty pounds per orphan without counting food, which was more than the orphans could afford.

This is a long-term income, after hundreds of years, or even hundreds of years, it can be said that as long as it persists, even if there is no other income for the royal family in the future, the royal family can live leisurely just by virtue of the interest on the orphan's loan.

Edward's eyes radiated, and after thinking for a long time, his thoughts gradually drifted away, farther and farther away.

"Your Majesty!" Outside the door, the groom's respectful greeting sounded.

"What's wrong?"

"The destination has arrived!"

Feeling the stopped carriage, Edward fully realized that he had arrived.

Smiling in his heart, he got up and came to a closed camp, which can also be said to be a military camp, a military camp with a somewhat abandoned taste.

Talents recommended by all the 100 and 1000 districts of London undergo a month of training, suffering, and understanding their duties and tasks before they can be sent to the East of England as the head of the 100 districts.

Today, our Majesty the King needs to inspire these talents who are about to travel far away, after all, His Majesty's face is rare to see, especially His Majesty Edward, who does not like to be seen everywhere.

Moreover, let them know that the king is always watching for them, so that they can better motivate and spread the royal family's condolences.
