Chapter 298: I am very relieved
After throwing away the troublesome essence, Li Xiao went all the way back to the upper room.
It's quiet here, Zhao Wan is wearing a long aqua blue dress and sitting on the beauty leaning under the corridor, half-leaning over the account book.
Not far from the side is Li Zhen is writing, she is still a student of Lanxi Academy, because the academy is now crowded, and a women's class has been specially added, Li Zhen is not only the class leader but also the position of assistant teacher. She looked up and saw Li Xiao's figure and grinned.
"The third brother is back."
"Your sister-in-law is really leisurely these days." Li Xiao walked over and sat down in the corridor.
"Where is it leisurely, I'm busy, my sister-in-law checks the accounts every day, and I have endless homework every day."
"In fact, the account is handed over to the account room at home, and there is no need to check it every day. But you have to do your homework every day, after all, you're still a student. ”
Li Zhen pouted and said, "I think the third brother is still leisurely, walking here and there every day, I heard that now except for the Shuowang Dynasty, even Chang Shen is not needed, no one cares, how leisurely." ”
"I'm not much laid-back." Li Xiao said with a smile, "Recently, I have been in the printing office on the other side of the Zhongwei River every day, and I am very busy." How are you doing at home? ”
Zhao Wan'er put down the account book, stretched out her hand to help her husband tidy up his clothes, and said slowly, "Everything is fine at home, during this time, there are more displaced people here, according to your instructions, our family has also opened a porridge shop on Lanxi Street, and we give porridge every day." ”
After all, Lanxi is located on the Lanwu road leading from Chang'an to Shannan, and many people in Shannan have been affected in the summer of this year, although many people in Shannan go to Henan, Huainan and other places to eat, but many people in the Chang'an area still come here.
"Fortunately, this year, we in Lanxi Township have a disaster relief charter organized by San Lang, and no one in our township has fled this year."
Although the harvest in Lanxi Township this year was only kept by two percent, these two percent were two percent that almost everyone kept, and the imperial court also issued a rent-free policy in a timely manner, and even the two feudal monarchs of Lantian County, Yuse, and Li Xiao, the prince of Lantian County, were also exempted from the rent of the feudal households.
Jianzhi Township Yutang prepared in advance, issued bonds to buy grain, and established a righteous grain storehouse, and now the people still have the summer grain just laid in their hands, and the reserve grain in the righteous warehouse has not even been used.
Looking at the hungry people who fled from outside, the villagers of Lanxi are now more and more grateful for what Li Xiao did in the first place.
While others dragged their families and uprooted their hometowns, the villagers of Lanxi could guard their homes and take care of the autumn harvest crops planted.
On the banks of the Blue Creek River, there are farmers working in the fields.
At present, Lanxi Township grows the most millet, soybeans, rice, sorghum, sesame seeds, and also grows a lot of chili peppers and some corn.
As for the wheat, the spring wheat has just been harvested, and the winter wheat has not yet been planted.
"Sister-in-law reports good news but not bad news, our family is not so peaceful, that Cui Yingluo is a troublemaker, third brother, find someone to sell her." Looking for trouble at home all day long, I don't respect my sister-in-law at all! ”
"That's really a trouble, but let's not talk about the sale, our family doesn't have this habit." Li Xiao shook his head.
Zhao Wan's belly is getting bigger and bigger, but fortunately, she herself is half a doctor, so she has a good grasp of her physical condition, and everything is stable now.
Li Xiao helped Zhao Wan back to the house, put her head on her stomach and listened for a while, and could feel the strong heartbeat of the fetus.
"Oops, the little bunny kicked me!"
Feeling the fetal movement, Li Xiao said happily.
He always thought that this child was a boy, but Zhao Wan felt that it should be a girl.
"The belly is so pointed, and the navel is protruding, this must be a boy, listen to me!"
The couple leaned back on the bed and chatted.
Li Xiao likes this warm atmosphere very much, in fact, the relationship between husband and wife tends to be flat after a long time, and there will not be so much passion.
"How's the printing office doing now?" Zhao Wan asked, she knew that her husband had sent more than half of the people from his printing shop over there, but she didn't pay much attention to this. Although she reads the account books every day, she is not the kind of landlady who keeps money.
"It's good, everything is on the right track, although we haven't made a piece of paper or a piece of ink yet, we have printed 10,000 books, and the book cost is 1,700 yuan, which is enough to make a profit of 1,000 yuan."
"Husband is really amazing!" Zhao Wan leaned sideways on Li Xiao's chest and praised with a smile.
········
Chang'an, Taiji Palace, Ganlu Palace.
The emperor who had just returned from the inspection of the Daming Palace construction site was in a good mood, and the idea of cash-for-work was really good. Originally, a large number of hungry people who had gathered in Gyeonggi were a hidden danger, but now after a large number of young and strong victims are sent to repair the palace through work, they are drawn from the bottom of the kettle, and a group of old and weak women and children are left without worrying about accidents.
It's good to get the autumn harvest.
So many victims built the Daming Palace, and the palace was just enough to be repaired before the autumn harvest, and then the victims were allowed to go home to harvest the crops.
With a happy mood, Li Zhi picked up the music on the table.
On his royal shore, there is also a box, but the music in it is different from the ordinary music, but it is specially for the news of the Hundred Cavalry Division.
Li Zhi attaches great importance to the Hundred Cavalry Division, the intelligence supervision agency established by his father, and he trusts it. Especially now after driving the elders of the eldest grandson Wuji out of the court, he always suspected that they were restless, so he increasingly needed the Hundred Cavalry Division to monitor the elders for him, as well as the hundred officials, and even he wanted to monitor the entire Chang'an, and even more than a thousand states and counties in the world.
Li Zhi felt that Baiqisi was his eyes and ears, which could allow him to see more and hear more, so that he would not be blinded by everything.
"Li Xiao's printing bureau actually recruited tens of thousands of victims on the construction site?"
Li Zhi flipped through a copy and couldn't help but be surprised when he saw it. There are 10,000 people, boundless, and with so many victims, it is easy to have accidents.
But after a closer look, I couldn't help but marvel that this Li Xiao actually managed the tens of thousands of disaster victims in an orderly manner, even better than the cash-for-work plan of the imperial court's Daming Palace.
They recruited workers from the families of the victims, printed food stamps, and built large canteens. Even these victims are made like military camps, and there are joint defense teams, joint defense team patrols, and curfews, etc.
Interesting, this Li Xiao is quite interesting.
But what made him even more unbearable was that Li Xiao didn't wait or rely on it, and didn't use a penny pulled out by the imperial court, so he relied on the money borrowed from the corn supervisor in advance to pull up the stall, and then the people now not only made the construction site prosperous, but also made a large deal with Zongshengguan, completed the printing of 10,000 copies of the Tao Te Ching, and it is said that he earned 1,700 yuan.
How many days have it been, and 10,000 books have already been printed?
1,700 times, a lot.
This Li Xiao is really my auspiciousness, I can do things anywhere, if all the ministers in the world are as capable as Li Xiao, why should I worry?
