In 1318, the Spring Festival was on February 2, and Lü Xiaoxuan rushed back on January 27, the day of the beginning of spring.

When she got off the boat, she saw a banner hanging in the harbor.

[There are no vegetable people mourning on this island]

This banner could only have been hung by Yingying for her mother, just seeing these seven words, it made Lu Xiaoxuan's guilt for the emperor's uncle fly away, and only her heart was full of emotion.

Although Ying Ying pitted the emperor's uncle and tore Qiongya Island into his mouth, but this kid bulldozed the vegetable shop, He fulfilled his promise to his mother, what does it have to do with Qiongya Island!

Lu Xiaoxuan happily carried a ragdoll dog to the island, but several people on the same boat with her were stunned and muttered to themselves.

Zhu Dawu: "How is it possible, even near Dajing, there is a trade in rice and meat, is there no Qiongya Island?" ”

Feng Zheng was also surprised: "My family is in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and when I was a child, some people in the village ate rice meat. ”

An old man coughed: "The world has been in turmoil for two hundred years since Meng entered the Central Plains, ten generations have passed, and the prosperous era of no vegetable mourning has never reappeared, and the level of the Lu family's governance of people's livelihood has reached such a high level?" ”

Zhu Dawu hugged an old man in a purple robe, and said with concern: "Lord Wen? ”

This year, the former Ministry of Industry Shangshu who was secretly awarded the responsibility of educating the crown prince by the emperor was supported by the little eunuch sent by the emperor, and he was in a trance for a while, and then immediately returned to his graceful appearance and opened his legs to follow Lu Xiaoxuan.

The group rushed to Lu's house and found that Lu Ying was not at home.

Lu Fang told his daughter expressionlessly: "Hai Feinu said that we want to maintain the route from Qiongya Island to Nanyang, so I went to the military camp in Wanzhou Port to investigate, and said that I would come back after staying for seven days, and today is the sixth day." ”

In other words, Lu Ying will not go home until at least the day after tomorrow.

Lu Xiaoxuan looked left and right: "What about the mother?" ”

What about her own mother, who traveled every day for 365 days and only came home on New Year's Day?

Lu Fang replied calmly: "I don't know." ”

Lu Xiaoxuan understood, her mother was still wandering outside.

My son goes to work, my father goes to work, my mother is traveling, and Lu Xiaoxuan, who went home for New Year's Leave, was a little empty, lonely and cold, and then she was also pulled to work by her father.

Lu Xiaoxuan was very helpless, but she was also curious about what Lu Ying had done, so she asked Wei's mother to draw a yard for Wen Yuyun to live in, and she followed her father's footsteps into the study, which is also the seat of the highest power on Qiongya Island today.

Lu Fang threw a bunch of documents in front of her: "Your son has found a bunch of things for me to do, you can also take a look." ”

Because of the efforts of spring ploughing, even if last year's typhoon season was particularly fierce, the people of Qiongya Island also saved some surplus grain during the autumn harvest this year, and the late rice was almost planted after the typhoon.

Of course, if there is more grain, the price of grain will be reduced, and if the price of grain is too low, it will hurt the peasants, so a considerable amount of grain was sent by Lu Ying to buy it at a unified price, part of the granary was used to expand the army, and some of it was stuffed with soy sauce, wine, and rice noodles, and all of it could be consumed anyway.

Fortunately, the Lu family was deeply influenced by Lu Xiaoxuan and Qiu Yu, and many of the data had been tabulated in the office, and Lu Xiaoxuan looked at these things concisely and clearly.

Among them, the annual per capita food possession, in addition to the Lu family itself, the farmers' food possession is calculated, and those who have four children or less in the family can reach more than 400 catties, but now there is no contraceptive measure, so many people will still have food problems next year.

Before hybrid rice was born, even Yingying couldn't solve this problem, and in the end, the villain only wrote a line on the form that recorded this line - the poorer the poorer, the poorer the poorer, the more educational, and the work was arranged, so that they were too busy to have more children.

P.S., ask the doctor how to use contraception without harming the body.

The corners of Lu Xiaoxuan's mouth twitched, Ying Ying is really seriously governing Qiongya Island, so the problems that many rulers will find when governing a place have all been bumped into by Ying Ying, such as life is good, in this era when there is no effective contraception and nightlife is not rich, the population will grow wildly.

So Yingying had to figure out how to make poor families have reasonable contraception, improve the quality of life, and liberate women's productivity at a young age.

Even if her son reaches this year's dragon head, he will only turn eight years old! Now Lu Xiaoxuan just wants to

Give the sentence that was used to describe Qiu Yu to Yingying.

This is eight years old?!

Lu Xiaoxuan covered her face and thought: Absolutely.

Lu Xiaoxuan found that the brilliant achievements of increasing grain production were inseparable from the soil fertilizer recipe contributed by Qiu Yu and the gypsum mine that Liu Ziyan pulled from Huxiang, and Liu Ziyan also broke into the senior management of the Lu family in one fell swoop and became a role that could not be ignored.

In other words, although Liu Ziyan's father is still the governor of the Yu Dynasty, she herself has actually gained status in another set of ruling teams.

What makes Lu Xiaoxuan cry and laugh is that in fact, there are still many officials appointed by the imperial court standing in the county government of Qiongya Island, but they are either kneeling from their hearts, or they are idealists.

In short, even if Lu Ying looked at the emperor's face when he killed Qiongya Island, he deliberately spared the lives of the court officials in the county ya, and did not deliberately trouble them, but now, everyone has put aside the emperor and knelt to Lu Ying, and he knelt very standardly.

After Lu Ying went to Luzon Island and brought back the news that Lu Kong had actually controlled Luzon Island, the Lu family's development strategy for many years in the future must also be changed.

Nanyang has fertile, can be three crops a year, but also rich in minerals and spices, the climate there is also very convenient to grow sugarcane, if only to operate Qiongya Island, the existing power of the Lu family is enough, but if you add Nanyang, the Lu family is bound to expand the army.

No matter what time it is, if there is no military to endorse it, then no matter how much wealth is developed, it is also a wedding dress for others.

In order to recruit more high-quality soldiers without using the means of "catching strong men", the Lu family is bound to work the welfare of the army.

After reading this, Lu Xiaoxuan pulled Wen Yuyun over, and Feng Zheng and Zhu Dawu also came over and introduced her father.

"This is the former Ministry of Works, Lord Wen, this is Feng Zheng, Zhu Dawu, sent by the palace to serve Yingying."

Lu Fang frowned slightly, nodded with Wen Yuyun, and asked Lu Xiaoxuan, "What did the emperor send them for?" ”

The emperor can't be born, this is a thing that has been affirmed, last year Beimeng was not happy, but the Yu Dynasty court also had an earthquake, because after the death of the concubine and the king of Wei, the emperor summoned more than a dozen clan children into Beijing.

Emperor Cheng'an is also a bachelor in this regard, basically acquiescing to the fact that he was cuckolded by his younger brother, and also admits that he is infertile, when the whole world thinks that the heir to the throne will be selected from the dozen or so clans, Emperor Cheng'an silently sent Confucianism and eunuchs to serve Yingying, which means that it is subtle.

Lu Xiaoxuan confirmed his father's guess: "He wants to take our Yingying away." ”

Lu Fang: "I'm afraid it won't work, Qiongya Island and Nanyang will be Haifei slaves in the future, and the old Qin family has many children, so they can't compete with us for the only heir." ”

Wen Yuyun was amazed at the power of the Lu family in Nanyang, and felt that the greater the power of the Lu family, the greater the probability of Lu Ying inheriting the throne, after all, the Lu family is small, and there is no need to worry about the power of foreign relatives in the future, what forces are in Lu Ying's own hands, and after he succeeds to the throne, he will be the backbone of the imperial party directly, just look at this, he has a huge advantage.

Old Man Wen said: "Your Majesty was ordered by the Heavenly Plaque in the Yongchen Hall where the Great Dynasty was held, and he hid a secret decree, the prince of the Yu Dynasty is surnamed Qin, and his name is Zhan Ying, and he is the eldest son of King Liang. ”

Lu Fang said bluntly: "Yingying is not available, didn't King Liang give birth to another son?" If the emperor likes King Liang so much, he will directly hug the one who was born, and it is easier for a younger child to be raised. ”

If it weren't for Lu Xiaoxuan's knowledge that the quality of King Liang and Princess Cao's parenting was not good, the only one would be promising

's second son was brought by Yingying herself, and the third son and the children who followed it were not too much to say that men and women were prostitutes, and they were not smart, and they were played around by the civil official group, and she almost agreed with her father's statement.

Lu Kong is currently recruiting troops locally on Luzon Island, preparing to take down the entire island first, and then slowly take down the other islands one by one through the form of economy and war, and in a few years it will be a state, but I am afraid that it will be possible, so Yingying really has no shortage of throne inheritance.

And Ying Ying is not in good health, and if she puts the burden of Yu Dynasty on that little shoulder, Lu Xiaoxuan is really afraid that her son will not be able to bear it.

But if you let your ex-husband's son take the throne...... Isn't that a pure scourge to the common people!

Lu Xiaoxuan didn't know how the children of the other clans were, but the children of her ex-husband's family definitely didn't have the combat strength and courage to kill the Northern Meng Dynasty and rebuild the Great Unification Dynasty.

But she can't be a prophet, Lu Xiaoxuan can only say to her father first: "I didn't agree to this either, so I discussed it with the emperor, if Yingying is fourteen years old, there are children of the clan who are well trained, and the will behind the plaque will be removed and the name will be changed." ”

As for Ying Ying after she is fourteen years old, if the Qin family clan can't find a reliable one, I'm afraid Ying Ying will really go to the top.

Lu Fang pondered for a moment and nodded: "Let's drag it like this first, it's really not good, I will send Yingying to Luzon Island, the sky is high and the sea is wide, and the emperor can't chase after him and snatch the child." ”

Wen Yuyun and the two eunuchs were almost speechless when they heard the conversation between the father and daughter, was the throne of their Yu Dynasty hot or what? Your old Lu family looks down on you like this?

After that, Wen Yuyun was sent to the courtyard to continue the vacation, and Zhu Dawu and Feng Zheng were treated the same, because Lu Ying was the main master, if he didn't come back, Wen Yuyun would have no disciples, and the two eunuchs would have no masters to serve.

When Lu Ying really came back, it was less than two days before the Spring Festival.

The villain came back with a black face, and when he saw Lu Xiaoxuan, he relaxed a little and said gently: "You wait for me, I'll deal with some things and then find you for dinner." ”

The elder Wen Yuyun didn't have time to say hello to Lu Ying, so he saw Lu Ying leave violently, and that night Qian Aquan and Wang Xiaoyi, the two county officials in charge of Ding'an and Wenchang, were called to Lu's house to listen to the boss's reprimand.

Lu Ying's soft voice was full of anger, and she almost crushed the two of them.

"As early as before the Chinese New Year, I reminded you that the people of Ding'an and Wenchang counties have extra money in hand this year, and they will be more willing to spend money when buying New Year's goods, so that you can report the estimated goods as soon as possible, and then send a fleet to Dongbin to purchase New Year's goods, what is going on with you! Why is there so much difference between the reported figures and the actual demand? ”

Qian Aquan trembled, because the island's materials are still limited, and it is inconvenient for the people to go to other places to buy New Year's goods, so he proposed to build an official shop, and the public will rent a ship at public expense, and buy goods back for everyone's use.

This is not only a question of shame or disgrace, but also a question of disappointing Lu Ying, Qian Aquan has the heart to die at this moment.

Wang Xiaoyi can barely argue: "My subordinate mother was born in a wealthy place in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and my subordinate asked Mrs. Hua where she stayed in Fuzhou Mansion, no matter how good it is, the common people will not buy it like this during the New Year, which is really unexpected." ”

Lu Xiaoxuan was originally curious about why her son called the county magistrates over, and wanted to introduce Wen Yuyun to Lu Ying after Lu Ying had finished dealing with it.

Wen Yuyun's heart was pounding, thinking that Qiongya Island was so rich? How long has it been since this place was taken over to the Lu family?

Lu Ying was still scolding: "The cloth has been penetrated, the meat has been penetrated, and even the sugar has almost been penetrated, and the people of Qiongya Island, which produces sugar, almost can't buy sugar during the New Year, which is a big joke in the world!" I asked you to prepare in advance, and you only asked those who came from the rich lands, but not the people, and I think your officials have gone to the belly of a dog! ”

The crisp sound of porcelain shattering sounded, and it seemed that Lu Ying not only got angry, but also smashed the teacup, this violent temper made Wen Yuyun feel a little back to the reign of Emperor Kailong in a trance, both afraid and kind.

"If you want to go to the countryside to investigate, I can go to live in the peasant hunter's house, and a few days ago I went to the barracks to follow the exercises, and eat a big pot of rice with the sergeants, why can't you? It's amazing, these two adults are even more delicate than me! ”

Wang Xiaoyi also began to tremble, he wanted to say that he had too much work on his hands, he was too busy, and he lacked skills, and his subordinates were the same, but Young Master Sun was right, as a member of the Lu family, Lu Ying also had a lot of things at hand, just to change the texts and write those few good articles, wouldn't it take time to grind? But he can still find time to go to the private sector for investigation, why can't he and Qian Aquan succeed?

The two county magistrates knelt down together.

Qian Aquan kowtowed first: "My subordinates are at fault, I'm sorry for Young Master Sun's expectations, and I also ask Young Master Sun to punish his subordinates heavily, and then let his subordinates make meritorious contributions." ”

Wang Xiaoyi followed closely and kowtowed.

Lu Ying sent a fire, and knew that just burning couldn't solve the problem, so she just sat back with a snort: "Get up!" Ding'an and Wenchang are the closest to Qiongshan Port

Under our painstaking management, it has become one of the richest counties on the island, and other counties are going to send people to you to learn the experience of governing people's livelihood, and you have done something wrong, not only your own face, but also my face! ”

"That's it, maybe Wang Xiaoyi is right, the people in other wealthy places still can't afford to buy meat during the New Year, where do you want to get less harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, plus soil fertilizer, salt mills, and embroidery workshops, the people can afford it at once?"

The climate of Qiongya Island is warm, and the people usually wear less, but no matter how little they want fabrics, so much bitterness haha from being born poor to now, it is not easy to have a good life for a year, so naturally they have to buy cloth and add a meat dish to the New Year's dinner, but it is just human nature.

Lu Ying calmed down: "The top priority is to let the people have rice, meat, cloth, and sugar to buy, especially the workers, they don't farm, there is no grain at home, and they have to buy rice, flour and oil, you take my strips to find a boat, go to Dongbin to find Qiu Yu, he has a pig farm, let him sell pigs to us, and go to Dongbin Port to buy a batch of cloth, and then go to the printing workshop to urgently print a batch of tickets, so that workers can buy items with tickets, go now, quickly!" ”

As the Chinese New Year approaches, peasants who have surplus grain at home must have clothes to wear, and workers who do not have a large amount of grain in their homes must also have food to eat.

Lu Xiaoxuan, who was listening outside, stumbled and planted directly into the house.

My son, why did you even get food stamps!

Lu Ying glanced at her inexplicably, went over to support her mother, asked her to sit down, and poured tea for her to drink.

Lu Xiaoxuan picked up a cup of tea, and the faint sweetness, medicinal flavor, and milk flavor penetrated into her lips and teeth, this is Qiu Yu's love version of Yingying's special milk tea.

Lu Ying patted her hand: "Not feeling well? ”

Lu Xiaoxuan: "No, I just accidentally tripped up." ”

Lu Ying: "Oh, then I still have something to do, mother, you are here to read a book and eat snacks, I will come when I go." ”

As he spoke, Lu Ying put on his cloak and sat on Lanxi's arm, saying that he was going to go to the barracks again to have a look, Lu Ying personally took people to prepare rice, flour, grain and oil before, and he was going to send it out tomorrow.

Wen Yuyun was ignored throughout the whole process, only stunned at this time, he looked at Lu Ying's back, and there was no idea in his heart to go to Lu Ying to show the identity of the emperor and teach Lu Ying to practice Confucianism, he was full of only one thing, that is, to see the current situation of Qiongya Island, and then write an excerpt and submit it to the emperor who was far away in Dajing.

Qiongya Island must have undergone a great change that makes this place different from other places.

Qian Aquan and Wang Xiaoyi helped each other to get up, smiling wryly, but also relieved.

Although they were scolded, Lu Ying would still send them to do errands, and it seemed that they had passed this level.

"It can't go wrong again." Qian Aquan said so.

Wang Xiaoyi nodded: "I took the strip to find the boat and personally crossed the sea to buy things." ”

Qian Aquan: "I'll go to print tickets, and then go back to inform all places about shopping with tickets, even if I stay up late, I have to come up with a proper charter as soon as possible." ”

The two punched each other and left in a hurry.
