Traveling through ancient times: living a different life

When he saw the second memorial, he had never heard of issuing lottery tickets. He read it carefully and thought that this business was very interesting. Although a small ticket was only sold for two cents, the quantity was large.

If the lottery is fully developed in Changping, every county or town will have it, which is not a small amount of money. The income here is divided into three parts:

One part is for the national treasury revenue, one part is for the local government revenue, and the other part is for the military fund. This way of distribution does not require money from the national treasury or local governments, and at the same time, these disabled soldiers can be resettled. It is a good idea that kills three birds with one stone.

After reading it, he laughed and said to Biyue,

"Princess Rong An's idea is quite good. I agree. Rong An will set up the lottery and the military fund. I will fully support you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for promising these two things. Rong An will do his best to accomplish these two things."

"Draft an imperial decree immediately. Princess Rong'an will be in charge of supervising this matter. No one can interfere. Officials from all over the country must actively cooperate and collect all the soldiers who have been on the battlefield. Princess Rong'an will have the first-hand information."

Next, it is the process of rewarding. Although Bi Yue did not go to the front line in this war, she rescued many wounded soldiers and provided food and fodder to the army. She provided the magic trident and 3000 soybean generals, and made unprecedented contributions. Without her assistance and help, the Ulan Kingdom would not have surrendered so quickly.

The imperial edict was taken out, and Eunuch Liu read it aloud, "In this battle to recover the Wulan Kingdom, Princess Rong'an has made new contributions, and was promoted to the Duke of Zhenguo, the first goddess of Changping Kingdom, and a thousand acres of second-rate farmland, two mansions, five shops in the capital, and the eight coastal counties of Qinghe County are all Princess Rong'an's fiefdoms.

The Marquis of Changxing was promoted to Duke of Changxing, Han Tingsong was promoted to Crown Prince, and they were rewarded with 100 taels of gold, 100 pieces of brocade, 100 pieces of cotton cloth, and pieces of silk.

Chen Tingwei was promoted to the rank of General Hu Ben, a fourth-rank general, and given a house, two thousand taels of gold, ten thousand taels of silver, five boxes of jewels, five boxes of silk and satin, and ten boxes of cotton cloth.

After reading the Chen family's reward, he handed the three imperial edicts to Biyue, Chen Qingyun, and Chen Tingwei. The three of them held the imperial edicts in their hands. Chen Qingyun was still a little confused. How did he get promoted again? Alas, it was all the good fortune brought to me by my daughter. I am an ordinary farmer who grows crops in the countryside. I raised a good daughter. Now I am so noble. The ancestors of the Chen family have shown their spirits.

The next people to be rewarded were Chen Chen and Luo Chen. This time, the two of them made new achievements, defeated the enemy, and enabled our army to capture the Ulan Kingdom more quickly. They made huge contributions and were promoted to a higher rank.

The two men kowtowed to express their gratitude, and Eunuch Liu handed the imperial edict to each of them. Each of them held a copy and stood on the side of the general.

Next came General Wang, General Wei, General Tian, ​​General Ding, East, South, West, North, Summer, Autumn, Winter and so on. All 200 generals who returned were on the list.

After giving out so much gold and silver, the emperor felt a little pain. Fortunately, Princess Rong'an gave him some money-making recipes.

The glass has now been produced and is selling very well in the capital. The Fifth Prince has also sent people to open branches in surrounding cities. The sales reported over the past month have been increasing day by day. It won't be long before the business is open to the whole country, and then making a fortune will not be a dream.

Cement was produced and business was booming. To make his case more convincing, the Fifth Prince sent 1000 men to build a road next to the capital.

Cement mortar was built section by section. Seeing such a smooth and clean road, all built with cement, those businessmen who saw the business opportunity flocked to the cement factory to order this magical building material?

The cement factory is now very busy, but the number of workers is obviously insufficient, so a recruitment notice has been posted, looking for some strong young people in the surrounding area to work in the cement factory.

According to the plan given to him by Bi Yue, the Fifth Prince had several levels of wages for the workers. The wages of the technical staff were higher than those of ordinary workers, and everything was arranged according to the terms originally formulated.

The papermaking industry was also in full swing. Although the quality of the paper produced was not as good as that of Bi Yue's previous life, it was already quite good in this feudal dynasty.

Printing technology also played a great role in promoting the development of the economy. Nowadays, the prices of books in bookstores have obviously dropped a lot. When Bi Yue donated these books, she clearly stated that all the children in Changping Kingdom would be able to go to school, read books, and buy paper and pens.

The emperor sat at the top and took a deep look at Bi Yue below. He felt that it was a blessing for the country and for Jiang Yuchuan that this girl could be reborn into his Changping Kingdom. With her, the plan of the two countries to annex would be overturned, and Jingguo and Wulan Kingdom would destroy themselves.

If she was from the other two countries, you can imagine what would happen, but you dare not think about it. It is too terrible. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down. Such a powerful woman should be rewarded and awarded a lot. This time, he did not hesitate to appoint a woman as the Duke of Zhenguo, and there was no objection in the court.

What's more, she was not greedy. She came up with so many ideas to make money for herself and also came up with such a good plan for the injured soldiers of Changping State.

He remembered that night when the prince told him that Princess Rong'an would only stay in Changping Kingdom for 100 years. After protecting this country for a hundred years, she would go to another world of cultivating immortals and never come back.

The emperor knew that these immortal cultivators were not greedy for wealth and glory in the mortal world. The reason they stayed so long was because they had relatives in this country whom they missed. Therefore, as long as the princess proposed anything that would be beneficial to the development and construction of the country, he would support it with both hands and feet without reservation.

After the rewards were conferred, it was almost noon, and the Emperor asked Eunuch Liu to adjourn the court to all the civil and military officials, as they could not wait to go back.

I got up early in the morning and stood in the temple for several hours, feeling tired and hungry.

Biyue also felt tired all over, mainly because she didn't sleep well and had been standing for the whole morning. After leaving the hall, everyone got on the carriage and returned to the princess's mansion. As soon as they entered, Chen Qingyun told the housekeeper to set the table.

Ting Wei, Chen Chen, Dongnanxibei and others went to the dining hall. After sitting down, they started to eat with relish without caring about etiquette.

Biyue didn't feel hungry. While in the carriage, she drank a glass of soy milk and had some fruit. Seeing that they all went to eat, she returned to her boudoir. Xiaomai helped her take off her clothes. The heavy princess costume made her feel hot and irritated. She went to the bathroom to wash up, returned to her bedroom, and lay on the bed to catch up on her sleep.
