"Your Highness, you will stay here for the time being."
Jiang Wenwen pointed to the yard in front of him: "This yard is newly built and no one has lived in it yet. The furniture and bedding inside are all new."
This yard was originally built by a local fisherman who earned money transporting kelp for his own home. It was just completed a few days ago and he hasn't had time to move in yet.
Jiang Wenwen was notified just now, asking her to be responsible for protecting Princess Lu Jie and finding a yard to arrange accommodation for them. Jiang Wenwen was the first to think of this and hurriedly ran to the fisherman's family to discuss it.
When the fisherman's family heard that the Imperial Master was going to use their house to temporarily house a princess, they immediately said they could live there as long as they wanted. Jiang Wenwen asked for rent and was scolded by the fisherman's family.
This family of fishermen is a big family. They almost starved to death during the piracy incident. Later, Jin Feng established the Marine Management Department and openly recruited fishermen and fishing boats. Their family immediately signed up and took over their three fishing boats.
They all drove out.
Two small boats are responsible for picking kelp, and a slightly larger fishing boat joins the transport team. It also picks kelp on a regular basis. When the big boat is too busy, it will help transport kelp.
Jin Feng was very generous to the fishermen. In less than two months, their family was completely transformed. Not only did they solve the problem of food and clothing, but they also saved a lot of money.
This fisherman's family has seven sons, and each son is married. Together with his wife and children, there are more than thirty people in total.
Previously, the whole family of more than 30 people lived in a large courtyard, and all the children lived on a large bunk. Among the seven brothers, three couples did not have separate rooms and were crowded into one room, with only reed mats blocking the middle.
Now that he has saved money, the old fisherman decided to build two more yards in his field for his children to live in.
This set is the one that was built first.
For fishermen, this house is definitely a good house. It covers a large area, has many rooms, and is close to the pier.
But Princess Lu Jie's maid frowned slightly.
Although the Eastern Barbarians are nomadic people, Princess Lu Jie does not need to herd animals and lives in the palace in the royal city most of the time.
Even if you go out to graze, the tent you live in is very luxurious and stylish.
This courtyard is indeed a bit shabby for Princess Lu Jie.
Jiang Wenwen noticed the displeasure in the maid's eyes and explained: "Your Highness, I believe you have also seen that Donghai has been very busy recently. There are too many people recruited from all over the country, and the accommodation conditions are relatively tight. The courtyard where my husband lives has not yet been
This one is big, I hope you won’t dislike it!”
"I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it!" Princess Lu Jie is not a fool. Even if she dislikes it, she will not show it. Instead, she smiles and praises: "I have dreamed of living at the beach for a while since I was a child, but I have never been able to do so. This time my wish has come true.
!”
"As long as His Highness is satisfied," Jiang Wenwen nodded.
Accommodation conditions in the East China Sea are indeed very tight nowadays, and many refugees sleep on the beach at night.
Although it is no longer cold, there are too many mosquitoes on the beach. Many refugees bury their bodies in the sand at night and cover their faces with thatch before they can sleep. Otherwise, there are so many mosquitoes that they cannot sleep at all.
It would be great to find a yard for Princess Lu Jie. Regardless of whether she is satisfied or not, Jiang Wenwen cannot change her residence.
Of course, it would be better if Princess Lu Jie was satisfied, and everyone would be happy.
"I'm very satisfied," Princess Lu Jie nodded, and then asked, "By the way, this place is very big. Can I let my entourage stay with me?"
When she came to Dakang this time, she brought a fleet with her, and the total number of people accompanying her was nearly a hundred people.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble and to show her sincerity, Princess Lu Jie only brought two maids, Bing'er and Shuang'er, with her when she disembarked, while the others stayed on the ship.

In addition to her personal guards and the sailors responsible for sailing the ship, these entourage members also include some talents in various fields. Following Princess Lu Jie to Dakang is a kind of study tour.
Now that they have found a place to live, Princess Lu Jie wants them to come ashore to see if they can learn anything.
"I'm sorry, I don't have the right to make a decision on this matter, but I will ask someone for instructions. I will inform His Highness when the results are available," Jiang Wenwen replied.
"Then I'll trouble Platoon Commander Jiang."
Princess Lu Jie heard someone calling Jiang Wenwen Platoon Leader on the road, and she also called her that.
"It should be," Jiang Wenwen nodded and motioned for an escort to come over and ask for instructions.
Princess Lu Jie also walked into the courtyard with two maids.
The general layout of this courtyard is similar to that of a typical rural courtyard. They all face north and south, and among the three main rooms facing the gate, the middle room is the main room, the side room to the west is the room of the host and hostess, and the side room to the east is the son's room.
The east side of the yard is the kitchen, and the west side is the utility room.
But what is different from other rural courtyards is that most people only build one or two utility rooms, but there are seven rooms built on the west side of this courtyard, and even three rooms are built on the south side of the kitchen.
Princess Lu Jie also saw so many rooms that she came up with the idea of letting her entourage come and live together.
After Jiang Wenwen entered the courtyard, he pointed to the two rooms on the left and right sides of the door: "We will stay in these two rooms. Your Highness can arrange the other rooms."
"good!"
Princess Lu Jie nodded and walked towards the main room with Bing'er Shuang'er.
The furnishings in the main room are very simple. There is an Eight Immortals table facing the door. On the table are the ancestor tablets of this family. On both sides of the ancestor tablets are the longevity tablets of Jin Feng and Tang Xiaobei.
Princess Lu Jie knows Chinese characters, has also studied Han culture, and knows what it means to enshrine the longevity throne.
However, she was not sure whether the people of this family voluntarily worshiped it, or whether Jin Feng forced them to worship it.
Princess Lu Jie was going to go back and inquire.
Although the fisherman's family has not moved in yet, there are already ashes in the incense burner in front of the memorial tablet. It is obvious that the family has come here to worship their ancestors.
There is a square wooden table against the wall on the west side of the main room, with a chair on each side of the wooden table.
If guests come to the house, this is the living room. When the family usually eats, the square table will be pulled to the center of the main room.
There is a curtained doorway on the east and west walls of the main room, leading to the east and west side rooms.
There were beds and bedding in both rooms. The maid checked the inside and outside of the room. After confirming that there were no problems, she let Princess Lu Jie live in the west room, and the two of them lived in the east room, so that they could protect Princess Lu Jie personally.
of safety.
The two maids had just tidied up the house, and the female escort who had gone to ask for instructions came back.
Bing'er hurried to the door and asked, "What do you mean, can our people move here?"
"The battalion commander said that His Royal Highness's personal guards can come over, but other people on the ship cannot enter Yuxi Town and stay on the ship!" the female escort replied.
"Batalion Commander?" Bing'er frowned slightly when she heard this: "Aren't you going to ask Mr. Jin for instructions?"
