Chapter 39 The Future

Bai Jiujiu patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I asked Uncle Jiu to do it a long time ago. I planned to take advantage of this cold wave to sell it to rich people. Since you need it now, you can use it first. I will give you the drawings."

Here you go, you can arrange craftsmen to make it according to the needs of various states and counties. You can also ask Uncle Jiu to order it, and I will definitely give you a preferential price." He took out the drawings generously.

Not everyone can make this thing. They will definitely ask Xuanyuan Fengyi. Then Uncle Jiu can discuss the commission with them, and she can get half of it. After all, she came up with it, hahaha——

"Where did the princess learn such a good method?" Nangong You asked curiously.

"The future? People in the future will keep warm like this, do you believe it?" Bai Jiujiu looked at him seriously and said.

The two looked at each other and smiled: "The princess is really good at joking."

"Hey, actually, I figured this out based on the records in wild history and combined with my own imagination. I didn't expect it to be possible, so people have to keep their minds spinning. You can have any wild and wild ideas. Maybe one day it will be realized.

It's here! Do you believe that there will be something that can carry people into the sky in the future? It can fly tens of thousands of miles a day.

And a car running on the ground can travel thousands of miles in an hour?

Two people are thousands of miles apart, but they can hear each other and see each other through a small thing." Bai Jiujiu casually said a few things commonly used by modern people.

Xuanyuan Jin and Nangong You thought she was just dreaming.

"Although the official agrees with what the concubine said, one's brain must be used frequently, but I'm afraid that these ideas of the concubine will never be realized." Nangong You did not believe that what she said would one day be realized.

Bai Jiujiu said confidently: "I believe that as long as you live long enough, you will definitely be able to see it." These things are too common in modern times.

"Nangong You, please arrange for craftsmen to build the shelter and install these things now." Xuanyuan Jin gave him the drawings.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to find too many craftsmen in a short period of time. If this shelter is not built within three days, the refugees may freeze to death. If the shelter is built, more refugees will come here, and there will still be trouble in the future.

." Nangong You expressed his worries.

Bai Jiujiu spoke again disapprovingly: "This is not simple. There must be craftsmen among these refugees who can build houses. The things you build are for them to live in. Let them sign up to participate in the construction. Not only will they take care of their food, but they will also give them money."

, they will definitely rush to work, and people will not feel too cold once they start working.

He also promised them that after the shelter is built, they will first arrange for their families to move in, and they will work hard.

In order to prevent a large number of refugees from flooding into the capital, all states and counties can build shelters and provide free accommodation. Their cold, food and clothing problems can be solved locally, and who will come all the way to the capital."

"This king also has this intention. If the shelter outside the capital can be built and put into use with good results, then a shelter can be built in various places to cope with this cold wave and to save for future emergencies.

After all, natural disasters and man-made disasters often occur. We must prevent not only this cold wave, but also summer rain disasters, heat, drought, etc." Xuanyuan Jin thought of something more long-term.

Bai Jiujiu gave him a thumbs up: "What the prince said is absolutely true, so the location of this shelter is very important. It can protect against cold, heat, lightning and fire, and it can also avoid floods and earthquakes. The Ministry of Husbandry and Qintian

Supervisors should cooperate in site selection."

"I'll go and do it now, my official." Nangong You took the drawings and left in a hurry.

After Nangong You left, Bai Jiujiu looked at Xuanyuan Jin and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, I have given you such a good idea. Can you do me a small favor?"

Xuanyuan Jin knew that she would not come over to offer advice for no reason: "Tell me!"

"I asked someone to buy a batch of duck down, goose down, and cotton from Western Xinjiang, but they were all blocked outside the capital. I have already collected the buyer's deposit. If the goods cannot be delivered on time, I will have to

If you pay three times the price as compensation, I will suffer heavy losses, so I would like to ask the prince to be accommodating. Can you let these concubine's things go into the city? I really can't afford to delay." Bai Jiujiu looked at him expectantly.

"The city gate will open in three days at most. The princess can't wait even three days?" Xuanyuan Jin asked, not because he didn't want to help her, but once this special case was made, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction with other merchants stranded outside the city. If

If all the merchants are allowed in, other people will be dissatisfied, so the whole body will be affected.

"We can't wait even a day. If these things are not made and sold as soon as possible, what use will they have after the cold wave is over?

I know that doing this will make things difficult for the prince, so I think of a good way for the prince. The prince can order that all goods purchased by merchants that are used to keep out the cold can be released. In this way, it will not be considered that the prince is bending the law for personal gain.

Things are also urgently needed by the people in the city." Bai Jiujiu had already thought of an excuse for him.

Although the store does not belong to her in the eyes of outsiders, it is managed by Xuanyuan Fengyi. If he lets her go, he will be accused of favoritism.

Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but admire how fast her little head turned: "As long as it concerns the interests of the princess, your brain turns very fast."

"Hey, don't you think this is a good idea, Your Majesty? It will not only allow my concubine's things to enter the city smoothly, but also prevent others from saying that you are bending the law for personal gain, and it will also convince others.

The key is that if you bring something to keep out the cold, it can also solve your problems.

You can achieve multiple things with one stone, why not do it." Bai Jiujiu stuck out his tongue playfully, feeling that there was no better way than this.

"Okay, just as the princess said." Xuanyuan Jin had to admit that her method was really good.

A special channel is opened for merchants of cold-warming products, and no one dares to say anything.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will retire." Bai Jiujiu ran away happily.

A smile appeared in Xuanyuan Jin's eyes.

The raw materials of Bai Jiujiu Department Store entered the capital smoothly and were immediately taken to the garment factory for processing. They must ensure that the goods are delivered to customers on time.

Xuanyuan Jin and Nangong You led people to choose a suitable location outside the city to build a shelter.

The refugees were very grateful when they learned that the imperial court had not ignored them, but had built shelters for them. They no longer crowded into the capital, but went to the place where the shelters were built.

When they heard that porridge and steamed buns were being distributed outside the shelter, they saw hope when they were hungry and cold, and immediately went outside the shelter under construction.

There are fewer refugees outside the city gate, and the city gate can finally be opened.

Nangong You listened to Bai Jiujiu's suggestion and recruited craftsmen from the refugees. As expected, there were many craftsmen. Some of them were willing to work even if they didn't know how to do it. Together with the craftsmen found by the government, dozens of shelters were completed in two days.

The facilities have also been installed, and the people who came to the capital to seek refuge have all moved in today, and finally no longer have to endure the cold.

The people praised the emperor as wise, Lord Nangong as a good official, and Prince Duan as a good prince.

The blizzard also arrived as promised. Although it had snowed a few days ago, it was not very heavy. This night, the heavy snow turned the inside and outside of the capital into a white world.

Fortunately, the shelter was built. Otherwise, with such heavy snow and no shelter or heating facilities, many people would definitely freeze to death.
