It's not that Shangguan Ruoli cared much about Nanyun Youhan. Shangguan Tianxiao had begged her to spare Nanyun Youhan's life.

Shangguan Ruoli walked towards the study and saw Mo Xiang at the door, knowing that he was indeed here.

Mo Xiang announced inside, "The princess is here."

Dongming Ziyu's voice came from inside, "Please come in, Princess."

Shangguan Ruoli went in and saw Dongming Ziyu sitting in front of the table with his elbows on the table, reading a letter.

After reading it, he put the letter into the envelope, raised his eyes, and said with unclear emotion: "What does Li'er want from me?"

The front study is where he works, and Shangguan Ruoli rarely comes here.

This time I came here definitely because of that bastard Nanyun Youhan.

Sure enough, Dongming Ziyu knew Shangguan Ruoli well.

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Let me ask if Nanyun Youhan is dead?

Shangguan Tianxiao had begged to spare his life."

Dongming Ziyu's eyes were dark, and there was suppressed anger in his voice, and he snorted coldly: "He is partial to this adopted son. If I am weak, will Nanyun Youhan spare my life?"

Nanyun Youhan would only kill him and take away his wife! Shangguan Ruoli knew that he was angry and hurriedly responded, "This shows that Shangguan Tianxiao trusts you. He thinks you are the strongest and can protect him."

My daughter!"

Dongming Ziyu sneered, the anger in his eyes dissipated, and said proactively: "He wants to have a truce with Yuancheng and open a trade route, and I agree."

Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows, "You actually agreed?"

Dongming Ziyu said calmly: "There are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends."

Shangguan Ruoli frowned and said: "Nanyun Youhan and Nanyun Lengyue will definitely use the trade route to Yuancheng and Xuancheng to lay hidden stakes, or even break up the troops into pieces."

Yuancheng and Xuanzhou border Nanyun, and their docks have passenger ships directly connected to the coastal docks of Yizhou Island and Dongming.

Not only can dried seafood be sold to Nanyun, but it can also promote the prosperity of the wharf, thus driving the economy of Xuanzhou and Yuancheng.

Only by living and moving can the economy develop.

This is similar to reform and opening up.

But opening the window not only brings in the breeze and the fragrance of flowers, but also flies and mosquitoes.

Dongming Ziyu chuckled, "They can do it, and so can I. Moreover, Nanyun has a large territory, making it easier to hide and lurk."

Yuancheng and Xuanzhou are such big places. Every resident has a household registration, and every foreign merchant has a registration. It is easy to find a foreigner.

So, now we have to focus on management and defense.

My son is five years old and has to build his own army. As a father, he can't do nothing.

He has no ambitions. He will plot against anyone who offends him. At least he will pave the way for his son.

Shangguan Ruoli thought of many things in an instant and suggested: "Our household registration system is very complete, but there are still loopholes in the management of the migrant population."

Dongming Ziyu knew that she had another idea. He sat behind the desk, holding his chin, as if he was listening attentively.

Shangguan Ruoli chuckled, reached across the desk, pinched his face, and ate some tofu.

Dongming Ziyu took her hand, put it to his lips, kissed it, and said, "Tell me quickly."

Shangguan Ruoli took back his hand, took the opportunity to touch his chin again, and then said: "It's not enough if the merchants who come to do business locally have registered.

Those who rent a house must also register with the Yamen, and those who live in an inn must register their identity and have their identity certificate checked.

Locals must have road guides and household registration certificates, and foreign nationals must have customs clearance documents.”

Although this cannot completely restrict espionage activities, it will restrict the entry of a large number of people.

Modern anti-counterfeiting technology is so advanced, but there are still people who forge certificates, let alone here.

Dongming Ziyu nodded, "Okay, general guarding the pass, I am going to put Zhang Tiesheng in charge.

As for population management, I want to leave it to Bai Qingyan and Zhao Capt."

There is only one checkpoint open, as long as it is guarded and strictly inspected.

On the contrary, the workload of population management is heavy and requires more manpower.

Shangguan Ruoli would not interfere with Dongming Ziyu's employment issues, saying: "Relying on officers and soldiers alone has limited power after all. We also need to mobilize the power of the masses to report suspicious people to the official. If they are verified, they will be rewarded heavily.

In addition, every village and town organizes patrols for the elderly and children who are unable to work. The masses are very discerning and giving them some copper can save a lot of manpower for the government."

This was when she thought that during major festivals in modern times, there would be many old men and women wearing red sleeves in various communities and villages in the capital.

Last time Nanyun Lengyue and the Wang family invaded Yuancheng, the people spontaneously organized themselves to protect their homes. It can be seen that the concept of self-defense among the people here is still very strong.

Dongming Ziyu's eyes were bright and he said: "You still have more ideas. I will gather my staff and officials to formulate specific policies, assign responsibilities to people, and then implement them layer by layer."

"Okay, don't be too tired. I will cook myself in the evening and make some of your favorite dishes."

After saying that, Shangguan Ruoli stood up and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Dongming Ziyu pulled her from behind, gave her a passionate kiss across the table, and then said: "I am very lucky to be able to marry Lier."

Shangguan Ruoli bit his soft lips and smiled softly: "It's good to know."

Dongming Ziyu pinched her soft part with a narrow smile in his eyes, "I will treat you well tonight."

When Shangguan Ruoli saw that he was starting to lose his seriousness, he gave him a blushing look and turned around to leave.

Next, Dongming Ziyu is very busy, no matter whether the negotiation with Nanyun Youhan goes smoothly or not, he has to implement the population management system.

During this period, he negotiated with Nanyun Youhan and signed various bilateral agreements.

Ling Yao and Jing Yu's birthdays, because Jing Yu didn't come back, didn't make a big deal. A group of adults and children who usually have dinner together celebrated it.

Shangguan Ruoli missed Jing Yu especially that day. He always felt that his son was suffering externally, like a little Sanmao, miserable.

Dongming Ziyu knew Shangguan Ruoli well and knew what she was thinking. At night, he served Shangguan Ruoli comfortably.

Shangguan Ruoli was soaked with sweat, he arched his arms into Dongming Ziyu's arms, and sighed without any trace.

Dongming Ziyu sat up and said, "Let's go, I will take you to a place."

Shangguan Ruoli's eyes flashed with curiosity, "It's so late, where are you going?"

Dongming Ziyu kissed her earlobe and chuckled, "The place you have always longed for."

Shangguan Ruoli was even more puzzled, "The place you yearn for?

Where is it?"

"You'll know when we get there."

Dongming Ziyu pulled her up to wash and change clothes.

Shangguan Ruoli didn't know what kind of medicine Dongming Ziyu was selling in this gourd, so he didn't refuse at the moment.
