Chapter XXXIV
Lan Youcheng said: "Yes, Lord Wang, if we are treated according to your formula, our food will not be enough." ”
Lan Youcheng's ability to settle accounts completely convinced Zhu Ao, so that her status in Zhu Ao's heart skyrocketed, and Zhu Ao was willing to ask Lan Youcheng's opinion and asked, "What can you do?" ”
Lan Youcheng instantly had a feeling of living with the prince, although it was very unreal, she was also very intoxicated, and said, "Enlighten the prince." The slaves and maids thought that they could reduce the treatment of the people when the farm was slack and make up for it after the harvest next year, so that they could save some food. ”
Zhu Ao nodded, this is also a way, although it seems that there are some words that are not believed, but in a hurry, you can't just watch everyone cut off two months' food, isn't that against the sky? What's more, this is only a temporary arrears, and it's not that he doesn't give it, even if someone complains, I believe it can be suppressed, after all, Lao Tzu is still a vassal king with heavy troops, as long as there is not a large-scale famine, the brothers can't survive, so they will make trouble with a few thorns, and I believe that it is okay to settle them.
Zhu Ao asked, "Then according to you, how much grain can we save at most?" ”
Lan Youcheng closed his eyes and did some mental calculations, and said: "The monthly ration of the sergeant can be reduced from six buckets to five buckets, so that four thousand four hundred and eighty stones can be saved in one month, and the military dependents and the guards, civil officials, and miscellaneous servants of the palace will be reduced by half each, and two thousand four hundred and fifteen stones can be saved in a month." If the idle time is calculated as three months, 20,685 stone can be saved. It's still a lot worse. Lan Youcheng shook his head in disappointment.
Zhu Ao said: "It seems that we have to find something else to eat." ”
Lan Youcheng's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "What the prince said is grazing?" Why didn't the slave think of it. ”
Zhu Ao smiled slightly, this little girl is quite good-minded, and said, "It's grazing." At first, the king wanted to put all his energy into agriculture and wanted to solve the problem of food first. But now it seems that farming alone is no longer enough. ”
He was still glad in his heart to have used Lan Youcheng's big account room, otherwise he wouldn't even know how long his food could last. Wei Yansheng didn't approve of doing this in the first place, and expecting him to fully cooperate was tantamount to a fool's dream.
What's more, how did Zhu Ao know that he Wei Yansheng didn't want to hug the thighs of the imperial grandson? In any case, the financial power must be in your own hands.
Lan Youcheng said: "The land west of the river is rich in water and grass, if it is grazing, the conditions are also unique, plus this is close to the Western Domain, the imperial court often exchanges tea and horses with them, we can use the tea transported from the mainland in exchange for their horses, cattle and sheep." I don't know why, Lan Youcheng feels that giving ideas to the prince is like giving ideas to himself. As long as the development of the prince's vassal kingdom is booming, her heart will be happy, and she has already regarded herself as the prince's person.
Zhu Ao touched her Peugeot's little face and said, "You little girl knows a lot." Yes, the king decided to put animal husbandry on the agenda, and also to plant some vegetables to make up for the lack of food and enrich the nutrition of the soldiers. ”
Lan Youcheng's face was red when she was touched, her heart beat faster, and a sense of happiness came to her heart, she lowered her head and said shyly: "The king, the prince is wise." ”
Zhu Ao smiled and said, "You're tired these days, let's do it here today, you don't have to go back at night, go to the king's palace to sleep." ”
Finally waited for this day, although Lan Youcheng had already been fully prepared, but when this moment came, her heart was still extremely excited, extremely happy, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you for the favor of the prince, the slave and maid are not enough to repay the prince's kindness. ”
Zhu Ao helped her up and said, "Why are you talking so tragic? This king is not letting you go to war. This king can see that you hope that this king is good in your heart, and you are doing your best to help this king during this time. Don't worry, this king has no other skills, only one, and he will definitely not disappoint those who treat him well. From now on, you will be a member of my royal family, and you will have your share in the future development of our domain. ”
The frenzy of Lan Youcheng's heart was about to shatter her chest and burst out of her body, what sweet words in this world can compare to such a real confession? The prince didn't dislike her at all that she was the daughter of a thief, and he didn't care that she was a slave at all, so he said what was in his heart to her.
Lan Youcheng felt that he was about to die happily, and he didn't care about the identity of the master and servant, so he took a step forward and threw himself into Zhu Ao's arms, crying: "Lord Wang." Thank you for the love of the prince, it is the greatest blessing for the slave to meet the prince in this life. ”
Zhu Ao stroked her hair and comforted: "Okay, okay, don't cry." If you don't know, you think this king is bullying you. Then he gently pushed her away, wiped her tears with his hand, and said, "Okay." It's not good to look at when you cry. This king doesn't want to be lucky with an ugly monster. ”
Lan Youcheng burst into tears and laughed, and said, "If the prince doesn't let the slave and maid cry, the slave and maid won't cry." The slave and maid help the prince to go back. ”
Zhu Ao grabbed her soft hair, stared at her delicate face by the beating light, slowly leaned his lips over, and said softly, but without refusing: "This king has changed his mind, and he won't go back first." Yes, there is. ”
Lan Youcheng was startled and said, "In, here?" This is the bookkeeper. ”
Zhu Ao said: "Doesn't this king know? Not to mention this small account room, even the entire Hexi is the territory of this king, and this king can be wherever he wants! With that, he leaned his lips forward again.
Lan Youcheng was frightened by Zhu Ao's domineering aura at the beginning, and his body instinctively shrank back, but then he reveled in it, isn't the man he fantasizes about like this? is very domineering to hold up a world for himself.
Lan Youcheng's heart was beating suddenly, his face was red, his head was lowered, and he muttered, "Wang, Wangye." ”
Zhu Ao blocked her lips, then pushed the ledgers on the table to the ground and hugged Lan Youcheng.
Of course, the account room is not a place to sleep, and after the two of them finished their work, they went to Zhu Ao's dormitory to rest.
The next morning, Zhu Ao and Lan Youcheng woke up almost at the same time. Lan Youcheng looked at the man beside him, his identity was noble, tall and mighty, and heroic, and an inexplicable sense of happiness came to his heart. She has been neglected since the day she was born, and later was promised by her father to a silly boy, at that moment she felt that her life was really desperate, her biological father was so unkind to her, and her future husband was a fool, what hope is there in this life?
