Five hundred and ninetieth eight chapters short of money
With the road guides eliminated, people from all over the place can travel freely.
As a result, a lot of people came to Xinghan City.
However, since the previous restrictions are no longer there, and Xinghan City will definitely become the imperial capital in the future, the housing prices in Xinghan City have also begun to rise.
People who came here early in the past can see the rising trend in housing prices.
Such a scene made them both surprised and happy.
If this hadn't come early, they wouldn't be able to afford a house.
However, as a result, their intangible assets began to increase.
Some great scholars began to buy houses and live in them while housing prices were still affordable.
Otherwise, in the future, the house here may not be suitable for them to live in.
You know, some great Confucians also lived in poverty and did not have that much money.
The officials previously sent out have all taken up their posts one by one, and the number of memorials submitted recently has also begun to increase.
Li Daifu from the Ministry of Finance has been busy recently, making some lists.
The larger the territory, the more manpower is needed.
There are obviously not enough officials in Xinghan City.
At present, there are some people in the Ministry of Industry and the Household Department, but the Department of Rites and the Department of Punishment are not yet complete.
He wanted to improve these departments, select candidates, and send them to Lu Chensheng for Lu Chensheng to take a look at.
This is necessary. You can't wait until the time when your Excellency is about to ascend the throne, and there will be no civil and military officials, right? Isn't this too shabby?
In addition, the great scholars, college students and others also agreed to Lu Chensheng's request and started compiling a dictionary.
One of the important reasons is that after this book was written by them, their names were registered in it.
This is a huge temptation. According to what the person who came to them said, hundreds of thousands of copies of this book will be printed in the future.
Such a quantity is enough for them to go down in history, and they have also seen the power of such classics.
It is definitely the dream of countless scholars to have their name recorded on it.
So the dictionary thing went quite smoothly.
There may be a lot of trouble in writing and it will take a lot of time, but there is nothing else to do.
.......
Winter is getting closer and closer. Lu Chensheng is in his study, reading memorials sent from various places.
At this moment, I frowned, the situation in various places is not optimistic.
In most places, Lu Chensheng still needed to allocate money to go there, which gave Lu Chensheng a headache.
After collecting these things, it felt like a mess that Lu Chensheng needed to deal with one by one.
The expansion of armaments requires money, the recruitment of soldiers requires money, the replenishment of granaries requires money, various officials require salaries, and various places require money.
Everywhere I looked, there were people asking for money.
The territory has expanded, and there is no reason to say that the military strength is still the same as before and needs to be expanded.
Lu Chensheng didn't have any objections to this point. According to the memorandum submitted by Bai Yi, it was necessary to expand the army by at least 100,000 soldiers.
This requires a lot of money.
These 100,000 soldiers also need armaments, which is another huge expense.
All in all, they all ask for money.
There is also the latest submission, which is to find a land with good Feng Shui and build a mausoleum for Lu Chensheng.
Well, it's the mausoleum.
Although he knew that mausoleums for emperors had been built very early in ancient times, looking at them now, Lu Chensheng still felt a little tired.
This memorial was directly rejected by Lu Chensheng. It was still too early to say, and there was indeed no money at the moment.
"Master Lu, are you so busy now?"
Outside the yard, Linyu sat aside, looking at Lu Chensheng who had not come out after entering, and asked Qiong Yue and the two girls.
"Yes, there have been more things recently. All kinds of memorials submitted need to be handled by my husband. There are also some arrangements for officials, which are also extremely troublesome."
Qiong Yue responded, still making clothes for Yue Yue in her hands.
Bai Yi now has some free time and is making clothes together.
Linyu looked at the two daughters in the cradle with envy in his eyes.
She also wanted to have a child, especially since these two daughters were so adorable.
"There are really a lot of things going on lately. My husband is busy late every day. I'm afraid I won't have time to talk to you."
Bai Yi also spoke.
Knowing that Linyu also wanted to stay with Lu Chensheng for a while.
They are already Lu Chensheng's wives, so they don't care about this matter.
"I'm fine, I just think Mr. Lu is a little too hard."
Linyu heard this and quickly waved his hands and said something.
As she spoke, her fair face was stained with red frost.
Bai Yi and Qiong Yue looked at each other and saw the smiles in each other's eyes.
"Since I feel that my husband is too tired, why don't you make some tea and bring it to your husband? We both have to make clothes, so we don't have time."
Qiong Yue spoke.
Bai Yi listened and nodded to express his approval.
Linyu was stunned when he heard this. He probably never thought that the two of them would do this.
While she was stunned, Qiong Yue and the other two waved their hands and signaled.
"Aren't you going? My husband will be thirsty at this time, and by the way, he will also be greedy. Check to see if there are any pastries in the kitchen and bring them in too."
Bai Yi was quite familiar with Lu Chensheng.
I know that when my husband-in-law is working, he likes to eat and read memorials.
Seeing the two urging him, Linyu quickly got up and got the tea set to make hot tea.
After a while, he entered the study room with tea and cakes.
In the study room, there was a strong fragrance of ink. Lu Chensheng was frowning at his desk, as if he had encountered some difficulty.
"Sir, let's drink some tea first."
Linyu walked aside holding the plate and said softly.
While speaking, her beautiful eyes were fixed on Lu Chensheng in front of her. She hadn't seen Lu Chensheng for a long time, but now that she saw her again, she still felt that Lu Chensheng's appearance had not changed at all.
When Lu Chensheng heard the sound, he felt that there was something wrong with the voice. It didn't sound like Xiaoyu's, and the scent was also there.
It doesn't seem to be Xiaoyu's. Although Xiaoyu has a slight fragrance, it's not like this.
Lu Chensheng raised his head and suddenly realized when he saw that it was the rain.
"It's you, why did I ask you to make tea?"
Lu Chensheng glanced at the hot tea in Linyu's hand and felt a little strange. Xiaoyu had done this before.
"It's okay. Didn't Linyu make tea for the young master before?"
Linyu heard the words and immediately said softly.
Lu Chensheng smiled when he heard this. He just felt that Linyu was here as a guest now, so it was really hard for him to do these things.
Today is different from the past.
