Chapter 742 As long as I see you, my mind can't hold anything else
While everyone was still looking for them, Chu Xingchen and Xiao Bingcube Zhou Buyan were shopping.
The streets are very local and very easy to stroll around. While shopping, you can also learn about the local situation and what everyone thinks.
Overall, not bad.
Although there had been some voices of resentment because of the Gu bug before, they had long since disappeared. People on the streets were talking about the Holy Gu of the Crown Princess.
That is to say, because my life was threatened before, otherwise joining Da Chu would have many benefits.
For example, cheap snow salt is back, cotton clothes and quilts are available, and you can go to school for free. This is something that many people never dare to dream of.
The cities that were merged into Dachu have developed well in the past two years. Their residents are treated the same as those in Dachu. After Dachu took over, they started infrastructure construction.
Roads are being built, toilets are being built, and if those big families who bullied you in the past don't behave, they will soon be taken over by the Chu, and the land that was previously annexed will be redistributed to the farmers.
"I heard that a salt factory is going to be built in the west, and there is a paper factory in the east. Have you decided which factory to apply for?"
Chu Xingchen was admiring the Wu embroidery unique to Wu. The colors of Wu embroidery are bright, the embroidery is three-dimensional and rich in variety. Every time he sees it, Chu Xingchen has to stop and admire it, and restrain the urge to buy.
As I was watching, I heard the people next to me discussing.
"I want to go, but the village is calling on villagers to plant bamboo, saying that the paper mill is responsible for harvesting it. My wife is good at embroidery, so she wants me to grow bamboo at home and embroider by myself."
"This way, we can keep an eye on our children and let them go to school well. Our school has been built and my children can go to school for free. My wife said that being able to go to school is a great blessing and must be cherished by the children."
"This is true. We never had such an opportunity before. They fell into a lucky trap."
"We have also fallen into a lucky trap. There were never so many opportunities to make money before."
"Children must go to this school. Literacy is given priority when recruiting workers. If you don't take the imperial examination in the future, it will be better to go to a factory."
"Yes, I think so too. This is Da Chu's welfare."
"The Queen of Dachu is really nice. She has so many benefits. I heard that the Dachu Library has opened next door. It is two stories high and is full of books at first glance."
Their voices were cheerful and full of hope.
When Xiao Bingcubi heard them praising Chu Xingchen, he kissed Chu Xingchen and hugged her neck. He felt silently proud.
Zhou Buyan straightened his back while listening, and glanced proudly at the two men who were talking: The person you are praising is our Majesty, it is because of your Majesty that you have such a life!
The two men looked at Zhou Buyan with a proud and smug look on his face. They didn't dare to show anything because of his impressive aura, but when they left, they couldn't help but curl their lips and mutter.
"I don't know what I'm proud of. Isn't it just that I married a beautiful wife and gave birth to a beautiful girl?"
"That's right, we will get married and have children in the future."
Zhou Buyan, who has very good ears: "..."
It turned out to be misunderstood, but what they said was true.
Zhou Buyan continued to be proud, and even stopped on purpose, wanting to hear a few more compliments from them.
They did praise the little ice cube's affection a few times, but as they continued to praise each other, their conversation suddenly changed.
"Although we can't find the Queen and the others, they probably haven't left yet. They might be around us. You think it would be great if our children were lucky enough to meet them and be chosen to follow them and take care of them."
The topic suddenly changed.
"You have also heard that I said no wonder the children I have seen these days are much cleaner than before. It turned out to be this idea."
"Who doesn't want to serve His Highness? It is said that several children were selected as playmates when we were in Tianshui City. Maybe ours can be used too."
"I also heard that in the future, Your Highness will also conduct a gentleman selection in Wudi. If you are selected, you will be lucky."
The more they talked, the more excited they became. Later, they all began to discuss whose child was pretty and pretty, imagining how honored they would be if the child was chosen.
Chu Xingchen accidentally heard Zhou Buyan: "..."
When did they say they would choose Wudi Junzi? When they lived in the Tianshui City Palace, there were indeed a few children playing with the little ice cube, but they were just simple playmates.
Little Ice Cube is just over three years old. People who don't know better think she is old enough to choose a prince.
Little Ice Cube is so smart that he doesn't understand what a gentleman's choice is, and his face is a little confused: "A gentleman's choice?"
Chu Xingchen said hurriedly: "You are still young, we don't want you for the time being."
After saying that, he and Zhou Buyan left.
When I passed by the local government office, I noticed that there were quite a few people waiting in line. After asking, I found out that I could buy cotton seeds. Everyone came to buy them.
Cotton seeds are not expensive, but they are not distributed for free, and those that are free are not cherished, so they are sold to everyone at low cost.
Many of the people waiting in line were farmers, and the quantity they planned to buy was not large.
"Just plant it in the open space behind the house. It will be enough for the whole family."
"My family is the same."
Everyone has never grown it before, and since they know it is a good thing, they are all planning to grow it themselves this time. Whether it is selling it or making clothes and quilts for their own homes, it is worth it.
Another person with a long-term perspective said: "My family should grow more varieties. I heard that a cotton factory is going to be opened, and they will definitely harvest it."
After Chu Xingchen and Zhou Buyan passed by, they could no longer hear their discussions, but that was enough.
The situation in Wudi is quite good.
The people of Wu also felt that although the country was destroyed, the problem of holy Gu was solved, but the destruction of the country gave them more hope and gave them more hope in life.
It would have been better if he hadn't thought about being Xiao Bingbing's husband so quickly.
When Chu Xingchen and Xiao Bingbian went to the next city.
Level to the ground.
Lingzhou was reading a new newspaper, and it was clear that Zhou Buyan was appointed as the emperor's husband.
"Although I had expected it before, I didn't expect it to happen so soon."
Seeing his sad and decadent look, Bao Jian hurriedly comforted him: "After all, General Zhou was in danger before, and he has made so many contributions, so Your Majesty will appoint General Zhou as the emperor's husband."
"No need to comfort me, I know."
More than two years have passed, and Ling Zhou's youthful aura slowly faded away, and his face became more determined.
He is decisive and decisive on the battlefield, and he has become more mature in peacetime.
However, some aspects remain unchanged, Lingzhou is still Lingzhou.
"His Majesty actually established Zhou as the imperial concubine without saying a word. I didn't receive any news. It's too much. Isn't it just a narrow escape from death? I escape from death every day."
Baojian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty must have contacted the young general, but the letter has not been delivered yet."
"Then please pay more attention to me and deliver it as soon as possible."
He wanted to see how His Majesty would explain.
When he comes back, he will definitely show His Majesty how powerful he is.
He said harsh words, but actually he felt really uncomfortable inside.
Just when Baojian was worried about how to comfort Lingzhou, Yan Jin came. Baojian's eyes lit up when he saw her and he immediately welcomed her in.
General Yan is the most powerful. Every time she comes, the young general's attention will be diverted. Whether it is talking about business or casual chatting, even if there is a quarrel, the young general can forget his worries.
