Let many concubines invite and compete for favor in front of them, and speak ill of each other in order to win their support for the princess, but His Majesty the Emperor seems to turn a blind eye and never expresses his position positively, and even avoids talking about whether he wants to marry the royal princess and himself, what kind of idea is this old fox fighting? Qin Duan fell into deep thought.

If you really want to marry any princess in the middle to yourself, this is really a headache for yourself, it is like arranging a deep thorn around you, although it is not obvious, if you don't deal with it seriously, maybe there will be chaos at a critical moment. can

But he can't refuse yet, I haven't heard that the princess has refused to marry, and it is quite a lot to divorce his wife and marry the princess, thinking of this, Qin Duan also felt tired.

……

Lu Man, who got the news from Tokugawa County, was happy and hated, happy that the imperial funds would be in place soon, so the planned urban municipal construction and infrastructure construction such as road transportation, farmland, and water conservancy could finally start, and the hateful Liang Qiming only allocated 4.5 million silver for the construction of Shuangdui Mansion, which also required the construction of a medium-sized fortress with high standards in Bauhinia Pass, how could this not make him grit his teeth with hatred.

He carefully considered how to use the funds, well, the city's municipal planning has come out, so the construction of several major streets must be fully launched immediately, this is the first task, and this project must be listed as the first place in the face of the crazy soaring land prices that will soar once the streets are built; The construction of the city's defense system can be slowed down, there is no city wall for the time being, anyway, the security situation here is not bad now, at most Liu Wu and them have to work hard, but they have to face the roar of Liu Wu, the king of the mountain, and the soft grinding and hard entanglement of the kid Linghu Yi, it is really a headache.

The road to Vito City must be completed as soon as possible, otherwise the merchants will be nagging every day. This is both a golden road and a lifeline, commercial needs are important, but there is a lack of good road traffic, and if anything happens, then the reinforcements have a good road system. That speed is a life-saving guarantee, and Lu Man, who served as the director of the War Readiness Administration, knows this very well.

By the way, the prospecting cannot be delayed. After learning that there might be an iron ore belt in the hilly area not far from the Wusun Kingdom in the north of Shuangdui, Lu Man was so excited that he almost didn't sleep all night, you know, there is no place in the area controlled by the adults that produces this important material related to the national economy and people's livelihood - iron, although Tokugawa has several large iron-smelting workshops, but the ore is purchased from outside the west, so the source of this ore can never be guaranteed. Moreover, the iron and iron tools produced in the Tokugawa alone were far from sufficient to meet the needs of the region, and even the government and the military had to spend a lot of money to import them from the Central Plains.

If the information is accurate, then this situation can be greatly improved in the near future, and the economy of Shuangdui Province may also take off as a result. However, prospecting not only takes time, but also requires experienced professionals and funds, especially the hiring of a large number of professionals requires a large amount of funds, and once the situation is implemented in the later stage, the funds for mining mines are a large amount. This qiē made Lu Man anxious, and now the funds are finally in place. It must be implemented immediately.

Alas, and the fortress, can you slow down? After thinking about it, he had already given up the plan to build the city's defenses immediately, and if this plan was put on hold for the time being, I was afraid that Liu Wu and Ling Huyi would really have to fight with themselves. What's more, Lord Zhuge also emphasized the importance of this fortress in his letter, so he had to include this in the first batch of construction plans, fortunately, the completion of the fortress is also conducive to caravan exchanges, and it can also increase a lot of tariffs, which is better than nothing.

Just when Lu Man was racking his brains for the use of the funds of the Twin Pile Province. Hundreds of miles away in Vito City, Mu Haoran had already ambitiously announced to his subordinates the development and construction plan that was about to start.

The road construction project to Tokugawa was listed as the No. 1 project, and Mu Haoran even asked the people of the Construction Department to make a military order, requiring them to complete this task within half a year, but fortunately, the road in the Tokugawa section has already been completed, so only the Vito section is left, although the workload is large, but it is not impossible to complete, Mu Haoran even designated a deputy director of the Construction Department to be responsible for this project.

According to the plan, the east and south walls of Vito City will be demolished, and the entire city will be greatly expanded to the east and south, so that the area in Vito City will be more than twice as large as the area to adapt to the upcoming rapid development period of economic construction. The steady stream of people who came to inquire, pay deposits, and go through formalities quickly formed a trend, which greatly relieved the financial pressure on the local government of Vito Province.

Several Gaoshan settlements located at the end of the Hengduan Mountains have also been planned as market town locations according to the actual situation, and the construction of market towns in these places has been listed as a priority project.

Mu Haoran naturally knew the mystery of this, and of course he didn't dare to deter and delay, several market towns have entered the final planning stage, and the construction has started soon, making the local Gaoshan people happy as if they were celebrating the New Year every day. Many influential people among the Gaoshan people have even taken the initiative to undertake propaganda work, calling on the vast number of Gaoshan people to voluntarily devote themselves to the construction and strive to build their homes well at an early date.

Just when the westernmost part of the empire was about to embark on a vigorous construction campaign, a huge conspiracy was taking shape in the heart of the empire, before anyone even knew it. In the dark, it seems that the heavens have long been destined to usher in an unprecedented catastrophe for the people of the empire, who have enjoyed hundreds of years of stability and peace.

"Senior Master, the Grandmaster has sent a letter. Also, the envoy of the Kamanites has come again, and he has asked to see you again. The man in black respectfully presented a fiery letter.

"Well, let him go to the reception room and wait for a while, and I'll come with me." Whispering to the man in black like this, the man who was respectfully called the eldest young master took the letter, opened the envelope, and read it carefully. (To be continued......)
