It is really inappropriate to evaluate a prince like this.

Although the Seventh Prince is old, he is not confused.

He had never been so open-mouthed.

And if he is strictly investigated, he will lose his head......

The guards didn't dare to say anything more.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxuan strode forward.

"Seventh Grandpa, why did you stay? You don't want to go to Nanguan with me, do you? ”

The Seventh Prince turned around.

"This king just wants to go to Nanguan with you, this king wants to see how you can change the status quo there."

Zhu Gaoxuan frowned slightly.

He didn't want the Seventh Prince to accompany him to suffer.

But the other party seemed to have made up his mind, so he didn't say much.

Nanguan is located in the middle of nowhere.

The main reason why it has not been able to develop here is because of the underdeveloped transportation.

Nanguan is surrounded by mountains, and if you want to enter it, you must climb the mountain.

So, it's basically self-sufficient.

However, because of the poor geographical environment, there is either drought or flooding, and the people are miserable.

Zhu Gaoxuan stood at the bottom of the mountain and looked up in the direction of the top of the mountain.

"It's really hard to open a passage through such a big mountain."

The Seventh Prince was stunned for a moment.

"Fourth, you're not kidding, are you? You're going to make a passage through this mountain? ”

Zhu Gaoxuan nodded.

"Now we have no other choice, either let the people inside move out, or open a way so that they can communicate with the outside world, and life will naturally be better."

"But a lot of the elderly are very pedantic, and they don't want to leave home for the rest of their lives."

"So I think it's our only option."

Opening up mountains and roads is easier said than done, laboring people and money, and it is very time-consuming.

The Seventh Prince didn't object to his idea, but he just felt that it was too difficult.

"And how long do you think it will take at least?"

Zhu Gaoxuan thought about it.

"I think that as long as we can afford the money, we will naturally be able to hire migrant workers, and if we continue to work, we should be able to do the construction even in winter. So I'm going to bring all the money from my house, and I'm going to get this road repaired in a year's time!" ”

It is no longer realistic to want to transfer money from the treasury.

So he had to pay out of his own pocket.

The Seventh Prince was stunned for a moment.

"Fourth, Grandpa Seventh really despised you in the past. Your pattern is really big, if you can become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the future, how good it would be......"

Zhu Gaoxuan did have a large sum of silver in his hand.

But it can only be used for a short time.

Therefore, he must organize people to open up mountains and land on the one hand, and think about making money on the other.

He gave an account to his men.

"Now you are at the bottom of the mountain, build a simple house, prepare daily necessities, and have enough food and water."

"Then send people to the nearby villages and towns to recruit people, five days for a penny, for young and strong young men."

"In addition, I will prepare a shovel and a carriage ......."

The subordinates nodded yes, and they planned to set off with the people.

Zhu Gaoxuan suddenly remembered something again.

"Invite two more Lang Zhong to come over, one or two pieces of silver a month, but they must be stationed here for a long time."

After his subordinates received the order and left, the Seventh Prince couldn't help but ask.

"Fourth, what are you looking for two Lang Zhong?"

Zhu Gaoxuan smiled.

"Grandpa Seventh and I will go up the mountain for a spin, and we'll talk while walking."

After a long journey, the Seventh Prince was already very tired, and he was really in no mood to go to the mountains, but he still nodded.

The two men talked as they walked up the mountain.

Zhu Gaoxuan pinched a grass in his hand.

"Did the prince see this? It is an herb that is so scarce that it is available in major pharmacies. If there is a lot of growth in the mountains, I can hire some women to come and pick herbs. ”

At this time, it is already late autumn, and this hay is very picky.

And there don't seem to be too many wild beasts on this mountain, as long as you send a few people to protect it.

Because herbs are expensive, there will still be a surplus after removing the cost of hiring people.

The Seventh Prince smiled and nodded.

"This is a good method, but in less than two months, it is estimated that the mountains will be closed by heavy snow, and then this way of making money will be cut off. What other ways do you make money? ”

Zhu Gaoxuan had a plan.

"Benwang plans to open hot pot restaurants and barbecue restaurants in nearby villages and towns, and he should be able to make some money."

The nearby villages and towns are all places where businesses must pass.

It's not very prosperous, but it's a great place to do business.

The Seventh Prince laughed.

"It makes sense, it makes sense, I'll take care of these things with Seventh Grandpa. After all, I can't help with anything else. ”

Zhu Gaoxuan originally planned to do so.

After all, the Seventh Prince is old, and he can't do heavy physical work.

And if it really breaks down his body, he can't afford to take responsibility.

He nodded repeatedly.

"Then this matter will be handed over to you Seventh Grandpa."

When the two of them climbed halfway up the mountain, they found many kinds of herbs, and they took some specimens of each of them and took them down the mountain.

It wasn't dark yet, but the sun was already setting.

The Seventh Prince's stomach began to growl.

Zhu Gaoxuan also felt that his legs were weak.

He looked in the direction of the bottom of the mountain, estimating that it would be at least an hour before he got to the bottom of the mountain.

Let's eat something and pad my stomach first.

So he directly caught two rabbits with a silver needle, and after cleaning them up, the two of them made a fire on the spot and began to roast the rabbits.

The night was dark, and there was silence all around.

There is only the sizzling sound of the rabbit meat being grilled.

Suddenly, there was a faint sound in the forest behind them, like the footsteps of a human, but not very much like a human, because the human sound should be heavier than that.

Both of them were practitioners, and they noticed that something was wrong at the first time, but they didn't react immediately, they only exchanged glances tacitly, and then continued to barbecue and eat meat.

Grandpa Qiwang ate with relish, and while eating, he did not forget to praise it.

"Your barbecue is amazing, I really can't get tired of eating it."

Zhu Gaoxuan smiled.

"I've already asked someone to go to Kyoto and transport the barbecue materials stored there, and then Seventh Grandpa, you can stay in the store and eat barbecue every day."

The Seventh Prince nodded.

"Haha, isn't it, your seventh grandfather and I are very blessed, all because of your light."

The footsteps were still approaching, only a few dozen meters away from them.

The Seventh Prince only looked up at this time, but saw a figure flashing back behind the tree, and after meeting his gaze, he fled.

The Seventh Prince was stunned for a moment.

Because he had just seen clearly, it was a woman's face, but the hair was scattered and the light was dim, and he couldn't see the other person's face clearly.
