Because of the content of Gao Zhiyuan's booklet, Li Qiao took the initiative to mix in the second question.

But after he finished studying the situation of the places where these docks belonged, he had no better means than to get some snacks.

The wharves of the Seven Princes and the Six Princes are all in Ai'an Province, and Le Qiao's idea is to plant chestnuts and lotus roots in these two places.

The Li family's snack shop buys these two kinds of food.

There are various ways to eat chestnuts, and lotus root is mainly used to make lotus root powder.

The nut lotus root flour sold by the Li family snack shop, the price of one pound is ten taels of silver, although the price is expensive, but the lotus root powder has its own audience and only has it in the Li family snack shop, so the sales are good.

Moreover, because these two places are far away from Shengjing, fresh lotus roots are not easy to transport, so the lotus roots from these two places are made locally into lotus root powder and then shipped to Shengjing.

In this way, it has stimulated local employment and provided a job for many people.

Coupled with the infrastructure construction carried out by these two princes, on the whole, the life of the local people is better than before.

Life is also much easier.

As for the eldest prince and the fourth prince, the wharves of these two princes are in Jibei Province, because they are close to Shengjing, so Li Qiao's advice is to breed livestock.

The Li family will send people to buy these livestock.

You don't make a lot of money from raising livestock, but it's a pretty stable income, and if you have 50 hens in a family, you can have 60 or 70 eggs a day at the peak of egg laying.

That's a pretty good income.

Eggs, ducks, eggs can be exchanged for money, chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep can also be exchanged for some money.

Coupled with the infrastructure construction carried out by the two princes, it is convenient for farmers to irrigate and travel, so overall, the life of the people is better than before.

The wharf of the second prince is in Peng County, and now several of the Li family's signature eaters have opened branches in Peng County.

Thanks to the early opening of the ancient canal in Peng County, people from Beppu came to taste the food of the Li family's shop.

This year, the Li family shop in Peng County has expanded its storefront, from a big store to a food street.

The number of employees employed has also expanded from more than 300 to 600.

Li Shu Li Shou and other Li guys are now only doing the process of seasoning, and all the rest of the work is handed over to the hired locals.

In addition to directly employing local people to work, most of the ingredients and seasonings needed by the Li family shop are purchased in Peng County.

In addition, Li Qiao also called on farmers in Peng County to plant yam taro, which is also an income.

Moreover, people from other provinces went to Peng County to taste the Li family's food, and if they couldn't go back that day, they would definitely have to stay in Peng County for one night.

If you haven't had a good day, you'll definitely have to stay a few more nights.

The arrival of tourists from other places has also created a lot of jobs.

Therefore, the economy of the five wharves has risen most obviously in Peng County.

Everything in Kepeng County is thanks to Li Qiao.

The six princes felt that eighty percent of the appreciation of the second question would still fall into the hands of Li Qiao.

As for the five princes, none of them came up with novel measures, so this game should be a draw.

If you add the results of the first question, then he is still in the lead for the time being.

But now he has a right arm, which is more than enough to offset his lead.

And the third question in progress, to be honest, this question was purely on the part of his father, so he decided on such a big topic.

Let them be responsible for irrigation, drought control, and other disaster relief work in a province, such a big topic, and no specific deadline has been given, in his opinion, this third topic will definitely not be solved in the end.

If that's the case, then he can't compete with his brother!

Li Qiao looked at the troubles of the six princes, but he was very sorry: "The Holy Lord has not mentioned this matter, and the lower officials don't know what decision the Holy Lord will make. ”

The sixth prince sighed lightly when he heard this, turned his gaze to the river, and after staying for a few seconds, he sighed: "You took the initiative to put Hu Ren in the face at that time, but you were unharmed, I was separated from Hu Ren by a mile, but I was shot in the right arm." ”

"Master Li, you want to kill Xihu quickly if you think about it, the more you think about it, the more annoying it becomes."

Li Qiao: "...... The Holy Lord decided to give Xihu a hard time this winter, and then sit down for peace talks. ”

"With Donghu in front, Xihu should not be able to resist the temptation."

"Then my arm is wasted."

The sixth prince couldn't help but sigh again, his back, which had always been very straight, was slightly bent, and the whole person was lonely.

Li Qian hesitated for a moment, but still said a few words of comfort.

But in the case of the loss of an arm, any words of comfort are light, and the mood of the six princes has always been very low, until he got off the boat, he straightened his clothes, straightened his back, put his hands behind his back, and slowly disembarked to meet Sheng Jun Shenghong and several other princes.

After the Sheng family father and son finished their tour, the merchant ship set off for the south.

This is a business that has been negotiated for a long time, just waiting for today's departure, thousands of sails are competing, thousands of miles away, carrying the mighty military ships of the sailor battalion, luxurious and beautiful painting boats, and cargo ships, these ships go down the river, the sails are like clouds, plus the endless stream of tourists on both sides of the strait, the bustle and prosperity of Dasheng are all here.

The father and son of the Sheng family stood on the dock and looked at the thriving scene, they were in a good mood, they had lunch in the Zhou family's restaurant, and then led a group of courtiers back to the city.

Li Qiao didn't go back with the army, Tao Zhu and the children were here.

However, it is a pity that Gao Zhiyuan is gone.

The three little ones looked at the various boats on the water, and shouted for Li Qiao to buy a boat too, they wanted to come and play often.

This small request, Li Qiao naturally agreed.

The family did not return to the city until dark, and the next day, Sheng Hong publicly raised donations in the court, one for the earthquake in Yun Province, and the other to solve the expenses of Tuntian.

In the past few years, he has been fighting with the Hu people, and his expenses are too much, although he can still withstand it now, but this world is not his alone.

Baiguan enjoyed the high fortune and his rare self-control as an emperor, so he had to give some money to tide over the difficulties at this moment.

Li Qiao donated 50,000 taels, which is the largest donation.

Several scholars were 10,000 taels or 20,000 taels each, and several princes belonged to the eldest prince who donated the most, donating 50,000 taels, followed by the sixth prince, who donated 30,000 taels.

The remaining hundred officials, most donated a few thousand taels, and the few also had a hundred taels, and when Sheng Hong counted it in the next dynasty, a total of more than 600,000 taels were raised.

Sheng Hong also ordered people to post notices to collect donations from the people.

Of course, he doesn't force donations from the people, he can donate if he wants, and it's okay if he doesn't want to donate.

It took five days to raise more than 800,000 taels of silver from the people.

There are many donors, and the amount donated by ordinary people is not large, ranging from one penny to more than a dozen yuan, and the total amount is only a few hundred taels.

These more than 800,000 taels came from the big merchants in the city.

The eunuchs have all paid for the silver, and the rich businessmen naturally have to pay for the silver.

1.5 million taels of silver were raised, Sheng Hong was very happy, the people in the disaster area could rebuild their homes, and the expenditure of Tuntian in the next ten years was also solved.

Dasheng has achieved the wealth of the people.

Moreover, his policy of strange questions has also shown its effect.

If this kind of jinshi is all over Dasheng, then if he encounters disasters in the future, he doesn't need to worry about thousands of miles away, and these magistrates will arrange them properly.

His hard work was not in vain, and he was gratified.

In August, Zhuang Wu Li Bottle and Zheng Tuhu and his wife returned to their hometown by boat, and Li Qiao finally found an opportunity to put Gao Zhiyuan's sack.

Tongzhou Wharf has become a famous attraction in Shengjing, where ordinary people go to find work and small traders who set up stalls.

Gao Zhiyuan is forced to make a living, and he often goes out to the stall.

Tongzhou Wharf has a large passenger flow, and his previous bad things have not been exposed, so the business is so-so, at least his mother Chen Yinjian doesn't have to wash people's pulp anymore.

And after the Li family bought a painting boat, Li Xiaorui, Li Changfeng, and Li Yunfan did not realize the freedom of the cruise, because even with the protection of Li Man and others, Li Qian was not at ease, and he had to watch it himself.

But Li Qiao only has free time on his day off, so the three little guys can only go to the Grand Canal once a week.

Every time Gao Zhiyuan sets up a stall, he avoids the officials' rest days.

So Li Qiao failed to catch him once.

But the day before this break, the three little ones couldn't wait, so Tao Zhu took them over in advance, and Li Qiao rode over after work.

The family plans to spend the night on the pier and return to the city tomorrow.

Soon, the sun was setting, the night was covered, and Gao Zhiyuan put away his stall and went home.

Shangshui Town, where his home is located, is quite far away from the wharf, and it is unrealistic to go back and forth every day, and the inn at the Tongzhou wharf is too expensive, so the two of them rented a small yard in a nearby village.

After setting up a stall for a day today, there were no guests, Gao Zhiyuan walked on the country road, and couldn't help but scold while walking.

scolded the world for being unfair, scolded Li Qiao for cutting off his way to ascension, foul language, and scolded whatever words were dirty.

But scolding and scolding, his feet slipped, and his whole body fell the cement road.

Just as he grinned in pain, there was the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and the sound of horses' hooves quickly came to him, and then, a large black cloth directly covered him, enveloping his whole body.

After he was stunned, he couldn't care about the pain in his palms and knees, and he was about to struggle.

Mother, he shouldn't have met the robbers, right?

But he's poor!

Just as he was about to open his mouth to shout that he had no money on him, the black cloth suddenly tightened, and then a dense fist fell on him, and there was a violent scolding: "Bullshit Taoist, what kind of life is nonsense?" If you're not sure, don't come out and deceive people! ”

Gao Zhiyuan: "......"

The voice was a little rough and unfamiliar, like a strong man with a big waist and a round waist.

But when did he tell the fortune of such a strong man?

Before Gao Zhiyuan could think of a reason, a denser fist fell, accompanied by a kick, and he couldn't help rolling on the ground in pain.

Sure that it was not a robber, he hardened up, and while screaming in pain, he began to threaten, shouting who you are, and then calling the officer.

Li Qiao replied according to his words, without revealing a trace of flaws, and Tao Zhu didn't say a word, put his hands and feet together, and greeted him fiercely.

The husband and wife cooperated very tacitly, one disguised as a victim of bad fortune telling confused Gao Zhiyuan, and the other shot fiercely.

When Gao Zhiyuan began to beg for mercy, Tao Zhu kicked him more than a dozen times one after another before stopping.

The next thing was that Li Qiao knocked him unconscious, and then the husband and wife rode away in the night.

The reason why Li Qiao deliberately disguised it was because he was afraid that Gao Zhiyuan would guess that their husband did it and then roll up his luggage and slip away.

Since Gao Zhiyuan returned to Shengjing, Li Dao has not yet found a chance to steal the booklet, even so, of course, Gao Zhiyuan can't be scared away by their husband.
