"What does Your Majesty mean by this?" Song Qingci had a feeling, but still asked the question unwillingly.

“As you know, I, the emperor, am quite poor these days. The previous disaster relief efforts have already cost a great deal. Although the trade is doing well, the border also needs this money to improve conditions. The funds available are really limited. And now the situation in Jiangnan is urgent, so I had no choice but to come up with this solution. Don’t worry, everything written in this IOU is true, and I will absolutely not renege on my debt.” Li Jianguo was actually a little embarrassed.

In fact, he wasn't entirely confident. But he figured he had to give it a try. What if it worked?

He had never inquired about Grandma Song's space. He didn't know what kind of space it was, what was inside, or how much there was.

Judging from his vast knowledge of online novels from his previous life, there are many different types of spaces. Based on all the previous deductions, Aunt Song's space is definitely not some small karaomi.

Judging from the amount of supplies she took out during this flood, it seems that Aunt Song's storage space is quite well-stocked.

Right now, he just wants to borrow the supplies in the space temporarily to catch his breath. He will definitely return the borrowed supplies once Da Chen has caught his breath.

Everything else can wait, but human life cannot.

The sooner things return to normal, the fewer people will die.

"Take a closer look. I even wrote down the interest rate here. I am, after all, the ruler of a country. You should trust me to this extent."

The IOU he gave to Song Qingci stated that he intended to borrow supplies from Song Qingci, including but not limited to various kinds of grain, building materials, and so on.

He wrote down everything he could think of.

Now, many inexplicable things have emerged, and he no longer cares.

A simple statement about royal secrets would suffice.

As long as he doesn't pursue the matter, no one in Dachen will dare to object.

Moreover, if something is missing or insufficient in quantity, it's not too late to cross it out.

The IOU was stamped not only with the imperial seal, but also with his personal seal.

He doesn't mind risking his reputation if there's a shortcut to quickly solve the current predicament of ordinary people.

"Your Majesty, you've already slapped the abacus beads in my face." Although Song Qingci didn't say anything, it wasn't hard to infer from her tone and expression that the matter was basically settled.

"The capable should do more. Perhaps, this is the mission we have here." Li Jianguo said with a smile.

Although he lacked his usual imperial majesty at this moment, Song Qingci felt that he seemed rather handsome.

"I've accepted the IOU and paid for the items listed on it. The interest will be calculated as you said. However, the person managing these supplies must be one of our own."

"Okay. You decide who to choose." Having achieved his goal, Li Jianguo was in a good mood.

This time, the reconstruction is not just for a disaster-stricken area in Jiangnan.

That was just the beginning; things will continue to develop gradually.

The nickname "infrastructure maniac" is well-deserved.

People generally believe that the allure of uniforms in the eyes of men is a white shirt, a pencil skirt, and black stockings.

The real allure of the uniform lies in the dragon robe he's wearing right now.

Within a few days, the news spread throughout the court and the public that in order to better and faster restore the disaster-stricken areas in Jiangnan to normalcy.

The imperial court has established a new Infrastructure Construction Department, and the newly appointed head of the department is none other than Shan Xi.

A woman, without any prior setup, has now become the head of a department.

The official rank was equivalent to the third rank.

Not to mention what others might think, even Shan Xi herself was completely bewildered.
