Chen Qing then said slowly: "Many officials think that it is a huge loss for me to use the old city to build official rental housing. If I sell it and make more money, the price per mu will be thousands of guan, or tens of thousands of guan per mu. Ordinary officials say that I can
I understand, but I don’t want the higher-ups to say the same thing. Our new dynasty has not yet been established. As a result, the people at the bottom of the capital have been forced to have no place to stand and have all left the capital. I am afraid that when we get up in the morning, we will have to empty the toilet by ourselves. The house is broken.
, we still have to climb up to the roof to repair it ourselves. Who wants to live such a life?
We can't control the businessmen who want to exploit the workers, and we can't do anything about the skyrocketing house prices. But as rulers, we have to protect the bottom class. I built the Changping store so that the bottom class people can afford to eat and wear clothes. I built it.
Official rental housing is also to allow the people at the lowest level to have a place to establish themselves in Jingzhao."
The three of them took a carriage back to Tai Chi Palace. On the carriage, Chen Qing suddenly remembered something and asked: "As for the arrangements for entering the memorial hall, the states in the south of the Yangtze River also need to enter the memorial hall. Is there any extra space?"
Zhou Kuan nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Highness, we have kept them all! Including the Jinzou Courtyard on Guangnan Road and Guangnan Road."
Jiang Yanxian also asked: "Your Highness, is there any news from Guangnan Road? Are they still loyal to that old witch in Lin'an?"
A trace of worry flashed in Chen Qing's eyes and he said: "There is no problem on Guangnan East Road. Officials from various states over there will soon send people to hand over letters of allegiance to us. I got the news when I was in Jiangnan, but there may be trouble on Guangnan West Road."
!”
"what happened?"
"Do you still remember Liu Guangshi?"
The two nodded, "Of course I remember. This man was exiled to Qiongzhou as a military officer. It is said that he died of illness a few years ago because he couldn't adapt to the climate?"
"It is a rumor that he died of illness. He did not die of illness, but changed his name to Liu Zhongjun."
Chen Qing couldn't help but said angrily: "I just found out that Zhao Gou didn't know what was wrong with his brain. He thought he had reformed by changing his name, and actually re-enlisted this person to suppress the Dongman rebellion in Yongzhou.
Liu Guangshi led the army to win several battles and quelled the barbarian rebellion there. Zhao Gou actually appointed him as the envoy of Yongzhou, commanding three thousand troops. Now that the Song Dynasty is gone, will Liu Guangshi let this opportunity pass?"
Zhou Kuan blurted out: "I'm afraid both roads in Guangnan will be in danger!"
"That's right! I have ordered Tang Qian to lead an army of 20,000 to guard Fujian Road, and ordered Liu Qiong to lead an army of 50,000 to Guangzhou. This can at least ensure the safety of Guangnan East Road. As for Guangnan West Road, we will not go there for the time being. We need to know first.
We’ll talk about the situation later, there are hundreds of thousands of mountains over there, it’s very complicated, we can’t march rashly!”
"Then when will His Highness plan to attack Lin'an City?" This question of Zhou Kuan is of great concern to everyone, and it is also related to everyone's interests.
Chen Qing smiled slightly and said: "Maybe this time next year!"
Fortunately, the two of them didn't ask why. Chen Qing could tell his wife the answer to this question, but he couldn't tell anyone else. There were some things that everyone knew very well, but just couldn't tell.
In fact, when they reached their level, they felt the same as Ming Jing. They also needed Empress Wei to come forward to destroy the Song Dynasty. It would be best to kill all those who were loyal to the Song Dynasty for them to save trouble in the future.
Since moving into Yongwang Palace, Chen Qing's wives and concubines have spent more time together. In the past, when they were tired, they would just go back to their own yard to rest. After resting, they would come back. Now it is not easy to go there, and you have to take a carriage.
, it is better to come here in the morning, have dinner in the afternoon and then go back to the palace.
Lu Xiu is a lady, a princess, and soon a queen. Her place has naturally become a gathering place for everyone. Several women sit together, chat about real estate investment, talk about news in newspapers, and take care of their children.
Bring it and let the children play together, and have endless fun every day.
There was plenty of sunlight in the living room, and the windows were all covered with glass to block the cold winter wind. Under the winter sunshine, several housewives were sitting in large wicker chairs drinking tea and chatting. Yu Ying put down the newspaper and asked: "Sister, Southwest
The land price in the district has risen to 3,000 guan per mu, which is six times higher than our purchase price. Should we sell it through a dental store?"
Lu Xiu shook his head, "We will sell it when the price per mu reaches 5,000 guan, and we don't care whether it will increase in the future."
Yu Lian asked: "After we sell it, where will we buy the land? Do you have any goals?"
Lu Xiu still shook his head, "This is our last land purchase and sale. The officials will not allow us to do it again, but we can do other things."
"What to do?" all the girls asked in unison.
Lu Xiu smiled slightly and said: "Do overseas trade!"
"Is it profitable to do overseas trade?" Zhao Qiaoyun asked next to him.
"It is said that a trip can bring a huge profit of ten times. Excluding taxes and transportation expenses, it will be at least seven or eight times. It is no different from buying and selling a house. The Zheng family, which is as rich as the country, got its fortune from overseas trade."
"Do the officials support it?" Zhao Yingluo asked.
Lu Xiu nodded, "This is his suggestion!"
"Then let's plan what goods we will buy and sell."
At this time, Lu Xiu suddenly frowned, "Amei, what's the matter with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Yao Mei, who was sitting at the very edge, covered her mouth and said, "I don't know why, but recently I always feel stuffy in my chest, nauseous, and want to vomit!"
The five women looked at her together. Lu Xiu stood up and asked, "When did the vomiting start?"
"Just these two days!"
Lu Xiu hurriedly ordered the maid, "Go and fetch Dr. Liu quickly!"
Yao Mei was a little uneasy and said: "Madam, am I sick?"
Lu Xiu smiled and said, "If nothing else happens, you are pregnant."
"Ah!" Yao Mei was surprised and happy, "I'm going to have a baby too?"
"This is a good thing! Do you know when you were conceived?"
Yao Mei blushed and nodded slightly, "It should have been in Xiangyang or Hanyang for a few days."
Yu Ying smiled and said: "If it were Xiaolang, the officials would name him Chen Jing or Chen Xiang."
Not long after, their female family doctor hurried over, Dr. Liu, who had been with their family for many years. Although her medical skills were not necessarily the best, everyone trusted her the most, and she also knew the Yong Wang family very well, and everyone's
She is very aware of the situation. If someone is sick and sick, she knows where the cause of the illness is. This is very important.
For example, she knew that when it snowed heavily in winter, King Yong could not walk in the snow that was as deep as his calves, otherwise it would be very easy to catch a fever. Another example was that she knew that Chen Xueer would have headaches on rainy days, which was a minor ailment caused by the fetus, and any medicine would help.
It can't be cured, but drinking a bowl of thick ginger soup will cure it.
Because of this, she became the chief medical officer of the Imperial Medical Office.
Dr. Liu checked Yao Mei's pulse for a moment, nodded and said with a smile: "Judging from the pulse, it should be the happy pulse. The pulse is very stable, so she should be very healthy. Congratulations on the birth of another child."
"Then what should I do?" Yao Mei asked nervously.
"Ask the princess! There are other sisters, they are all experienced, but one thing you have to remember is that from now on, no more sexual intercourse is allowed."
Yao Mei blushed and nodded quickly, "I remember."
"In fact, there are still many dietary taboos, which must be strictly enforced in order to give birth to a healthy child. By the way, don't touch small animals anymore."
Doctor Liu also knew that Yao Mei often went to feed the deer with Chen Xueer and Chen Binger. He knew that she liked small animals.
After Dr. Liu left, Lu Xiu said: "Amei, please move to my place temporarily! It's too deserted for you to be alone there."
