"It's a good idea, and sure enough, the master is in the people, and I didn't think of this idea before."

"Now that I'm seeing them getting better and better, I'm relieved."

"When the farmers' profits increase, industry and commerce can start to arrange."

The two adults didn't understand what Chen Mu was talking about industry and commerce, but after thinking about it carefully, they could understand what Chen Mu meant.

I think it is the development of textiles and cast iron, as well as the business of merchants.

After all, the two adults were still traditional families, although they did not take industries such as textiles and cast iron lightly.

But for those of them who are literate, they really don't look down on those who are in business.

After hearing Chen Mu say this, some adults immediately frowned, turned their heads and glanced at their companions.

After Chen Mu thought about this, his mind turned, and he immediately began to start the idea of setting up a Ministry of Commerce.

The Ministry of Agriculture has always had it, and the Ministry of Industry has always had it.

As for the Ministry of Commerce......

However, it can be dotted up, and the Ministry of Engineering can also be refined.

In ancient times, the Ministry of Industry was only responsible for the construction of water conservancy or royal facilities.

The branch of the industry he wanted to set up was related to the folk handicraft industry.

When I go back, I will see that the affairs of the Ministry of Agriculture have stabilized, and the two departments will have to make overall arrangements.

Thinking about it like this, Chen Mu nodded secretly, and at the same time remembered the matter of resources.

He now has oil resources, and he still lacks natural gas.

But fortunately, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce have not yet been established, and he is not in a hurry to explore for natural gas.

The use of oil resources at hand is enough to maintain the operation of these two sectors and the development of related industries.

With a sigh of relief, Chen Mu took a turn around the town.

Seeing that most of the townspeople in the town had good reviews of the decrees he had issued recently, Chen Mu also felt quite satisfied.

When he was about to return to the inn, passing by an alley, Chen Mu suddenly heard a cry coming from the alley.

The cry sounded very poignant and mournful from the woman's voice.

Chen Mu's footsteps stopped, and he immediately turned his head to look in the direction behind him.

He was followed by several guards.

When the guards saw Chen Mu's appearance, they didn't delay, and immediately rushed into the alley.

Moments later, there was another sound of fighting in the alley.

When the fighting was over, the guards dragged a man with a bruised nose and swollen face out of the alley.

And behind the man, there was a woman with the same blue nose and swollen face.

Not only did the woman look miserable when she was beaten, but she also had a few scratches on her arms, all of which had seen blood, and some marks on her body that had been whipped out, looking extremely pitiful.

The woman staggered, and as she walked out of the alley, she fell to the ground with a thud.

She looked in the direction of the guards with some trepidation, looking a little timid.

As soon as Chen Mu saw the woman's appearance, he frowned, what was going on?

He glanced up in the direction of the leader of the guards, and as the guards rushed into the alley, they had asked the man what had happened.

Now seeing Chen Mu raise his head and give them a look, the leader of the guards immediately stepped forward and said.

"Returning to the ...... Childe, that's right. ”

"This woman is the wife of this man, this man is a good gambler, and he has spent a lot of money in the family because he is gambling with others outside the past few days."

"I heard that there are only ten taels of silver left in the house now, but this man still wants to take the silver out to gamble."

"The woman was not happy and stopped the man, and the man beat the woman like this."

"I see that this woman still has some old wounds on her body, and the man is afraid that he often beats his wife."

After saying this, the guards looked at each other, and they all pouted,

They are very disdainful of this kind of bullying of the weak, after all, in their opinion, the real strong are against the strong.

Where is there bullying of women and children?

The man rolled his eyes when he heard a few of the guards say this.

"This woman is disobedient, what's wrong with me beating her?"

"I'm her man! Don't say it's beating him, even if I divorce him, his family will never dare to say anything! ”

When the woman heard the man say this, she immediately looked up in the direction of the man in fear, and her eyes were full of confusion.

Chen Mu's eyes turned around the woman's body, and saw that the woman was thinly dressed, and she did have some old wounds on her body.

Chen Mu immediately frowned, and a thought flashed in his mind.

Women have been allowed to become officials in the court, and the status of women is also steadily improving.

In such a situation, it was also time to establish a women's protection agency.

He could see that the woman was very afraid of her husband.

In a dynasty and society like this, it is really hard for this woman to go out to cultivate the land, raise her family and children, take care of the elderly, and earn money for her husband.

Chen Mu thought for a while, stepped forward, and said to the woman.

"Your husband said he was going to divorce you, what do you think?"

When the woman heard Chen Mu say this, she immediately frowned.

In her eyes, tears welled up again, and she looked quite sad and pitiful.

"Hughed? Hughed...... So how? If I am divorced, then who will want me in the future, and how will I live? ”

If she were to be divorced, she would have no fertile land in her hands, and no dwelling.

was kicked out of the house by her husband, so she could only sleep on the streets.

It is precisely because of this that even though she is often beaten by her husband, she does not dare to resist.

When Chen Mu saw this woman's appearance, he immediately frowned in embarrassment, and he said.

"But I see that you have old injuries on your body, and when you just came out, your feet were still a little thin, so you should have been beaten by your husband."

"Even so, do you want to stay with him? It's not that I don't persuade peace, it's just that ...... People like him ......"

The man looked like a shapeless man, and he only had ten taels of silver left at home, and he didn't plan how to spend it, and he thought about using the money to go out and squander.

Chen Mu pursed his lips, and the man jumped to his feet angrily after hearing Chen Mu say this.

He rushed in front of Chen Mu with a fierce son, raised his fist and hit in the direction of Chen Mu.

Where did this kid come from?

Although he is dressed quite luxuriously, but how about him and his wife, this is a family matter of their family, where does this stinky boy get the power?!

Chen Mu saw that the man pounced in front of him, he lifted his eyelids and glanced in the direction of the man, not dodging or dodging, not afraid of the big man's movements.

Seeing this, the big man gritted his teeth, and saw that his fist had been swung in front of Chen Mu.

The next moment, I saw a flash of silver light, and the big man screamed miserably.
