For these women, Liu He also took pity on them.

Many of these prisoners are famous all over the world; There are also many nobles who are ministers and live in temples. Seeing them fall from the clouds into the sludge, and their wives and daughters fell here, Liu He inevitably felt sad about the death of rabbits and foxes.

He couldn't help but think that if he made a mistake one day, or because the Yulei embankment had not been repaired for a long time, which angered the king, his family would end up so bleak.

Every time he thinks of this, Liu He hopes to make these women live a little better, and he doesn't want the rules he has set by himself, and one day, he may pit his loved ones. He would rather his daughters and granddaughters do hard labor day and night, rather than let them be so miserable.

But he had no choice.

That's right, weaving, dressmaking, and the like are mostly women's jobs. But among the 200,000 men in Minjun, few of them want clothes! They had to do hard work every day, building embankments and farming, without stopping for a day. If you wear clothes, won't the clothes be dirty in half a day, and you can't wear them in a month?

Cloth is money, except for the rich kings of the world, who else wastes money so much?

Even if it is a royal palace, is there no hard labor that can only work every day without clothes? It's just that the princess can't see it, so she thinks that these people don't exist, that's all.

It's the same thing with cooking.

Of course, the food presented to the nobles should be carefully cooked, the rice should be scooped and cooked. But food is not money? Firewood is not money?

The royal family is rich in the world, so they will cook for the temple people and palace people, because these people may be bumped into by the nobles.

But slaves in other places are not treated so well, give you a handful of grain every day, let you chew dry, people will not starve to death, the requirements are so high, who do you think you are? The money spent on a month's hot meal is enough to buy several slaves!

As for sweeping, it's even less necessary.

In addition to the palaces and mansions of the royal family and ministers who need to be cleaned from time to time to prevent the socks and skirts of the nobles from sticking to the dust, many ordinary people sleep directly on the ridges when they are tired, and sleep in the straw stacks when they come back, how can they care whether they are clean or not?

After listening to Liu He's narration, Yin Ji was immediately silent.

She really didn't expect that in her opinion, food, clothing, housing and transportation, which were the most basic, were not necessities for most people in Minjun.

This made Yin Ji a little embarrassed.

She originally thought that creating jobs suitable for women would not only save these poor women and allow them to support themselves with their hands, but also attract more women to come, but she was stuck in the first ring.

That's right, she can indeed use her identity and strength to force Liu He to release people, and then let these women spin and weave, do laundry and cook, but this is not a long-term solution!

Minjun is just a stop for her, not her end, she will one day be recalled to Lulong City by Yin Changying.

If she doesn't establish a perfect ecological cycle for Minjun before leaving, things may not return to their original state when she leaves.

The biggest problem in Minjun now is that there are few women, and without women, there is no family, let alone children. But women are scarce resources everywhere, Yin Changying can send 100,000 slave prisoners to Minjun at a time, but he wants to send 100,000 immediately, no, even if 10,000 women come over to try?

Even if people are released in the palace, they are all married to soldiers who have returned to the field, who will come to a barren place like Minjun?

Thinking of this, Yin Cheng had a new idea.

Although she hates slave traders, she has to admit that these days, if you want to fill a place quickly with a large number of women, you have to rely on these guys.

In order for them to bring women to Minjun, they must do two things: first, it is rich here; Second, women are profitable here.

Just like Zheng Guo, Kabuki's career is well-known all over the world, so businessmen from all over the world are pouring women over there, hoping that they can also produce a Song Empress Dowager in their hands.

Of course, Yin Ji would not do such a bad thing, she just suddenly thought that there were many mulberry trees on the road along the way, which showed that the climate of Minjun was quite suitable for sericulture. If you can make a high-end silk fabric, which is more expensive than a thousand gold, will the businessmen not rush to it?

The local women in Minjun have no silk weaving talents, it doesn't matter, Yin Ji immediately asked Biao Wanzi: "Among the entourage of Shaofu this time, can there be sericulture and textile masters?" ”

Biao Wanzi immediately replied: "Shaofu has allocated one hundred and twenty skilled hands from the weaving room to accompany him. ”

One hundred and twenty?

Do you need so many people to make clothes for her alone?

Seeing that Yin Ji didn't speak, Biao Wanzi was still unhappy with her.

When Biao Wanzi saw the people sent by Shaofu, he also felt that Yin Ji had been neglected. After all, one hundred and twenty people sounded like a lot, and they brought a lot of cloth and silk thread with them on this trip, but they also made clothes, dyed cloth, divided threads, embroidered...... and so on, people have to do it, that is, it will be enough, and they may have to work day and night.

Therefore, she couldn't help but say: "The king's filial piety period has just passed, and the Shaofu really can't allocate more manpower." ”

Yin Ji was first surprised, and then she couldn't cry or laugh.

She understood, although Shaofu was hindered by Yin Changying's order, he had to send someone to follow. But it is impossible for Yin Changying to stipulate in detail how many people must be produced in each department, and if the Shaofu is free to dispose of, he will act according to the charter, and it is good to give Yin Changying a full staff, but there will be no preferential treatment.

Moreover, the skills of the group of people who came with her are not expected to be particularly good.

After all, Yin Changying is filial piety, and he can accept concubines. Of course, Shaofu has to be busy currying favor with the king's pillow people, and the top embroidery girls are sent over there, what is an exiled sister?

"My clothes are not in a hurry." Yin Cheng thought for a moment and said, "I hope they can improve the existing looms, preferably two or three people to control them together, and weave finer fabrics and more beautiful patterns." ”

Seeing that Biao Wanzi seemed to disagree, Yin Cheng said again: "Annan County is full of mulberry trees, but no one picks mulberry and raises silkworms, which is not good." You lead people to fence off some of the best places of mulberry trees and build silkworm houses and weaving yards. Let General Rong send people to guard, and the soldiers in charge of guarding will have an extra meal every three days. ”

Then, she looked at Liu He again and asked for advice: "Liu Junshou, I want to recruit those women to raise silkworms, and their food will be provided by me, I don't know what you think?" ”

Although Liu He couldn't figure out whether Yin Ji wanted a better brocade, whether it was for his own pleasure or had other ideas. But the princess spoke, and it was such an innocuous little thing, so he naturally didn't say a word, and nodded directly.

After dealing with this matter, Yin Ji exchanged a few words with Liu He, and then motioned to Biao Wanzi to send off the guests.

Then, she sat alone in her seat, and after a long time, Fang sighed softly.

Although the Qiangshui Water God is far away and does not dare to come back for the time being, if this matter is not resolved, even if Minjun develops well in a few years, it will be destroyed by a flood.

She had to think of a way to get the Qiang Shui God done first, so that she could deal with the follow-up matters with peace of mind.

Yin Ji had already discovered that the Qiangshui Water God did rely on the Qiangshui to exist, so she couldn't help but wonder, can there be any way to "pump" the crocodile out and cut it with the Qiangshui?

Only in this way can it be completely resolved at this time.
