"Okay, don't abuse your husband, do you still want to hear how to be a husband?" Zhu Youzhen finally thought of a solution.

Wang Meiyu stopped kneading the dough first, she didn't see Wan'er's glare, Horqin is her maiden family, she is naturally more attentive than others, Zhou Yufeng and Hu Xinxue also stopped their hands and listened very respectfully.

Zhu Youzhen first threw out his own thoughts: "Since Horqin has extra women, then send them to a place where there is a shortage of women." ”

"Your Majesty, where is there a lack of women?" Wang Meiyu was very nervous, don't send these sisters of hers to the hook bar.

"The barracks, there are 20,000 garrisons of the Ming Dynasty in the Horqin grassland, and many soldiers have not yet started a family, so you can ask your father to send a group of young women to the barracks and let the soldiers choose, more than 20,000 soldiers, I'm afraid that half of them are not married, right?" Zhu Youzhen thought that if he could marry a wife in the barracks without a bride price, many soldiers should be willing, and in the future, these soldiers may retire and choose to take root in the Horqin grassland.

The most important thing is that the marriage between Han and Mongolia can speed up the naturalization of the Horqin Department, which is Zhu Youzhen's small abacus.

"Oh, Your Majesty, why didn't the concubine think of it?" Wang Meiyu was pleasantly surprised, and Zhou Yufeng and the others all showed a pair of admiring eyes.

"Also, near Chita, there is also a garrison of the Ming Dynasty, which is still a gathering place for Mongolians, so if you pick it up like this, I'm afraid you will pick up 20,000 Horqin girls, right?" Zhu Youzhen struck while the iron was hot, "Heilong Province, Beihai Province, Liaoning Province, and the sixty or seventy thousand soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, these places are all outside the Guan, and the original lifestyle of the Horqin people is similar. ”

"Your Majesty, if you calculate it this way, you can solve 50,000 women." Wang Meiyu pinched her fingers and felt that it was almost over, although there were 150,000 more women than men in the Horqin Department, polygamy had been partially solved, and some elderly women, whether to marry or not was meaningless, plus a huge number of children, had not yet reached the age of marriage, and there was no need to marry for the time being.

"After these girls marry the soldiers, they don't have to work hard to graze, they can learn to grow vegetables, what they can't eat at home, they can also sell it to supplement the family, at least the army needs a lot of vegetables, and in the future, Daming will also open various factories outside the customs, these women can go to the factory to work, such as cutting fur or something, and they can also get paid."

The four girls couldn't help nodding, and their eyes of admiration for Zhu Youzhen became even stronger.

"For Yu'er's sake, I can also send some ways to make money to the Horqin Ministry," Zhu Youzhen touched the dumbfounded Wang Meiyu's face, seeing that she didn't react, obviously listening, "Training ploughing cattle, Liaoning Province will gradually increase the population, reclaim new fields, need a large number of ploughing cattle, Horqin can train sturdy cattle into ploughing cattle, and sell them to Liaoning Province, the price of ploughing cattle is much more expensive than beef cattle." ”

Wang Meiyu's eyes flashed with strange agility, but she was still a little uneasy, "Your Majesty, if this cow is sold, what will the herdsmen eat?" ”

"You are stupid, if you sell your cattle and get silver, you can buy grain, and Liaoning, Guannei, and even Horqin will produce grain in the future." began to knead the dough again, this time, it was Zhu Youzhen kneading on Wang Meiyu's body, until she fully understood Zhu Youzhen's words.

"Oku......"

"There is also mining, the imperial court not only found coal mines in the Horqin grassland, but also found iron ore in Aobao Mountain in the southwest of Xilin, which will be excavated soon, Horqin men are strong and can join the ranks of miners, and the remuneration of miners is much higher than grazing, they can not only buy enough food with the silver they earn, but also have some surplus, and they will not have to work hard to live in the future."

"But, Your Majesty, the herdsmen are not engaged in grazing, where will the food come from?" Wang Meiyu felt that Zhu Youzhen was like Changshengtian, but she didn't know if this visible Changshengtian was just coaxing her to be happy.

"Yu'er doesn't know the life of the Han people, the people farm the land, the grain can't be eaten at all, the surplus will be taken to the market to sell, and the people who are not engaged in farming can buy grain as long as they have silver." Zhu Youzhen continued: "In addition to having enough grain for their own families, the money earned from selling grain is the surplus of their families, and those engaged in other industries will also have some savings when they use their own remuneration to buy grain. ”

"Your Majesty, if the people who farm the land refuse to sell the excess grain in their hands, what will the court do?" Wang Meiyu did not understand the way of survival in an agrarian society at all.

"This doesn't need to be taken care of by the imperial court, the excess grain in the hands of the people, if it is not sold in the market, it will rot after a long time, and it is worthless, which people are as stupid as you?" Zhu Youzhen tapped Wang Meiyu's forehead.

"Your Majesty, the concubine understands."

"It's good to understand, as long as you follow Daming, ensure that your herdsmen in the Horqin Department live better than before, and ordinary people can also marry two wives in the future."

"Really, Your Majesty?" Wang Meiyu seems to be immersed in the illusory blueprint depicted by Zhu Youzhen.

"Of course, however, they can't marry two wives for the time being, and if they want to be really rich, they have to accumulate for a period of time, I'm afraid they will have to wait until after naturalizing the Ming Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, there are still some superfluous women in Horqin, the female baby will soon grow up, what should they do?"

"I don't have a back-beating person yet, if no one wants the women of Horqin, I don't mind getting them all into the palace and taking turns to beat the back for my husband......"

Wan'er couldn't straighten her waist with a smile, she simply squatted down and laughed enough, Zhou Yufeng pressed her waist with one hand, turned her face away, her body was twisted, and even Hu Xinxue couldn't hide her mouth and laughed out loud.

Wang Meiyu's tender hands directly pinched Zhu Youzhen's waist, as if she could knead Zhu Youzhen into dough with her strength.

"Yu'er, you haven't told me yet, what good news is there!" After a long time, when the four girls calmed down, Zhu Youzhen asked Wang Meiyu again.

"Don't sue you," Wang Meiyu seemed to be angry, she glanced at Zhu Youzhen, "Your Majesty has the ability, go ask the queen's sister yourself." ”

Zhu Youzhen's gaze moved to Zhou Yufeng, "Feng'er, it turns out that you have been hiding something from me?" ”

Zhou Yufeng was blushing and hanging her head, like a shy water lotus, her left hand supported her lower back, and her right hand gently stroked her lower abdomen, indescribably light and soft, I don't know where the strength of kneading the dough just now has gone.

"Your Majesty, Sister Queen has it." Wan'er was quick to speak, and couldn't help but report the good news to Zhu Youzhen.

"Got it? With what? "Zhu Youzhen is strange, Wan'er has always been sharp, why did she only say half a sentence today, which made people scratch their heads.

"Your Majesty, I don't understand this!" Wan'er's face was a little gloomy, but she still didn't forget to glance at Zhu Youzhen: "Your Majesty is going to be your father." ”

"Huh?" Zhu You's eyes widened suddenly, as if he was about to swallow Wan'er, but soon, his gaze moved to Zhou Yufeng: "Feng'er, is this true?" ”

"Hmm." Zhou Yufeng nodded lightly, her delicate face was full of the joy of being a mother, her bright eyes, and she secretly glanced at Zhu Youzhen.

"I'm going to have a baby!" Zhu Youzhen was excited, ready to pick up Zhou Yufeng, turned around twice, and stretched out his hands, but suddenly felt inappropriate, so he had to smile awkwardly and retract it.

"Poof!" Wang Meiyu, who hadn't spoken for a while, couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw Zhu Youzhen's happy appearance, which just gave Zhu Youzhen a chance.

"Wan'er, Xue'er, Yu'er, from today on, you have to accompany Feng'er more, don't let her be any buddy, talk to her, walk with her, and make her happy."

"Yes, slave and maid!" Wan'er naughtily stuck out her tongue, bent down, and respectfully saluted Zhu Youzhen, but Wang Meiyu covered her mouth and smiled.

"Your Majesty, it's only been two months, is this necessary?" Zhou Yufeng glanced at Zhu Youzhen with shame, but there was indescribable satisfaction on his face.

"It's only been two months, no wonder I don't know." Zhu Youzhen scratched his head and stroked Zhou Yufeng's belly again to hide his hindsight.

"What do you think? Will you call your father? "Wan'er dares to scream.

"Wan'er, from today onwards, you have to stay with Feng'er." Zhu Youzhen deliberately took it seriously, this Wan'er was going to die, and he dared to joke about himself.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the slave maid has been accompanying the queen's sister, even at night, so that Sister Xue'er and Sister Yu'er are accompanied...... 陛xià. Wan'er deliberately prolonged her voice, and also blessed Zhu Youzhen, turned around and covered her mouth and smiled, because the voice couldn't come out, and the shoulders on both sides couldn't help shaking.

Wang Meiyu stomped her feet, so angry that she wanted to pinch Wan'er's neck, but soon she smiled and bent over, obviously her anger was completely faked.

Hu Xinxue just smiled shallowly, and Zhou Yufeng covered her lower abdomen with both hands and coughed violently.

Zhu Youzhen's face turned red, he was so angry that he couldn't speak, he was worried about Zhou Yufeng, but he pulled Wan'er over, pressed it on her thigh, and rubbed her mulberries with his big hand: "Look at you dare to make trouble, and you can't do it!" ”

This night, Zhu Youzhen spent it in Kunning Palace, and he was dreaming about this year's senior happiness.

Zhou Yufeng was the first to get pregnant, which was a great joy for Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Youzhen has always been worried that there is something wrong with his body, or it does not match the ancient beauties, so he has seen it and can't find any symptoms, but the body of the fourth girl has not moved.

Today, Zhou Yufeng explained with facts that Zhu Youzhen should not be left behind.

Whether it is for Zhu Youzhen personally or for the country of Daming, this is an overwhelming happy event.

The second is that the imperial court has implemented compulsory education in the five northern provinces, and the central government and local governments have used a number of administrative measures, which have been comprehensively promoted. The enrollment rate of rural students has reached 65 percent, which is still some distance from the 80 percent that Zhu Youzhen hoped, but the enrollment rate of urban students has already exceeded 90 percent.

This is the first year, and Zhu Youzhen believes that as compulsory education gradually takes root in the hearts of the people, the enrollment rate of children will increase.

The third thing that Zhu Youzhen was happy about was that Mu Qiyuan and Zuo Liangyu quelled the riots in the southwest, allowing the Ming Dynasty to add Tibet and Yudu provinces out of thin air, and the provinces of the Ming Dynasty increased from the original 15 provinces to the current 22 provinces, an increase of half.

The fourth is Hong Chengchou, who is far away in Lingbei Province, and finally marched into the fishing sea, and the fishing sea became the Beihu Lake of the Ming Dynasty.
