Back and forth: I brought supplies to help the impoverished prince

They did what they said. On the second day after Qiao Shinian dragged his suitcase back to school, the Jiang family finally gave out two-thirds of their property to quell the disaster as Wen Jiu had said. They had been investigating for so many days but had not produced any evidence, and many people were tortured to death by them.

At the same time, Wen Jiu cut the Gordian knot and killed several corrupt officials who had taken human lives and businessmen who had forced women of good families into prostitution and trafficked in human beings.

Qiao Shinian didn't need to think about where Wen Jiu's information came from. The biggest similarity between her and Wen Jiu was that they both had reliable human resources left for them by others.

In the next few days, Qiao Shinian sometimes stayed in the palace and sometimes stayed in the school. The government knew where Qiao Shinian's school was, and in order to please Wen Jiu, they specially arranged for five patrols to pass by every day.

Of course, Qiao Shinian also gave a suitable price for this arrangement, as some hard work fee for the patrolmen.

After all, there are so many children, and most of them are girls. It is inevitable that some people will think that the people here are easy to bully. With such deterrence, Qiao Shinian is more at ease about the children.

Wen Jiu's plan was also going smoothly. Many people saw the notice posted by Wen Jiu and were tempted to come. The entrance to the palace was already bustling with activity.

Soon, with the assistance of Wen Jiu, Qiao Shinian opened a shop in Yun County. This time there was no Cao family member present, and the shop was managed by Yuzhu and her subordinates.

There is a lot of work to be done and everything is just beginning.

In March, the spring is warm and spring planting begins.

The palace had 300 mu of arable land, 112 mu of arable land was purchased, 450 mu of land was compensated by the Jiang family, and 150 mu of arable land was confiscated from corrupt officials and merchants. Wen Jiu now had a total of 102 mu of arable land.

The current population of Yun County is 67,500. Wen Jiu employed 3,500 young and middle-aged male laborers, of whom 1,349 were engaged in farming, and the remaining 2,000 followed Wen Jiu to cut down a mountain. The mountain was then dug, and dozens of acres of land at the foot of the mountain were bought by Wen Jiu, which were then planned to form a large river.

Floods often occur during the rainy season after autumn. These two thousand men did not dare to stop or be lazy every day and kept digging hard.

After Qiao Shinian settled his own affairs, he had more free time.

"Sister! Why are you here!" Wen Jiu was naturally not idle. Although he was a prince, he was born with supernatural powers and thought he would not be slow at work. So he was either digging reservoirs and rivers, or working hard in the fields with a hoe.

Qiao Shinian looked at Wen Jiu, who was covered in mud, and frowned slightly: "Take care of yourself. You are still a teenager. Although you are strong, your body cannot automatically repair itself infinitely."

"Know it!"

Wen Jiu chuckled and looked at Ji Lanzhou, who was holding a sword and standing less than three meters away from him: "Look, that person has to pretend to be dead, stepping into mud every day and changing shoes every day."

"People are particular about their clothing taste." Qiao Shinian looked at Wen Jiu, who was wearing a linen shirt and had his trouser legs rolled up to his thighs like everyone else. If one didn't know his identity, one would have thought he was an ordinary farmer!

"Have you given instructions about the children in Yun County going to school?" Qiao Shinian stated the purpose of his visit.

"I did, but when I told them they have to pay one cent in tuition every month, many people were unwilling to do so! Alas, poor people always just want to find a job in the future." Wen Jiu shrugged helplessly.

Seeing that Qiao Shinian wanted to say something, Wen Jiu immediately put away his playful smile and said, "Don't worry, sister. I promise that I will let the children go to school after the autumn harvest. It's different here than yours. Their main concern now is to have enough food."

Qiao Shinian didn't say anything. She looked at the reservoir, which was only five meters deep, and asked, "When is the reservoir expected to be completed?"

"Probably in May." Wen Jiu sighed, "It's a pity that there is no cement, so we can only use stones to fix it. Fortunately, the soil can be mixed with plants and wood to make a mud house, or burned into bricks for building houses."

"Are you sure those children can go to school after the autumn harvest?" Qiao Shinian's eyes were full of doubt.

Wen Jiu nodded affirmatively.

Seeing this, Qiao Shinian told what he had seen and heard recently: "Do you know what those children are doing now?"

"They are probably farming with their parents, or fishing in the river and selling them in the pond, or plucking leaves from chopped down trees, drying them and filling pits with them as fertilizer." Wen Jiu was very clear about Qiao Shinian's question and knew what those people were doing without checking.

"So, you did it on purpose." Qiao Shinian strongly disagreed with Wen Jiu's approach.

Wen Jiu shrugged and turned to look at the people working hard below: "Sister, I told you that changing your mind takes time, don't be impatient. What's more, we are under construction now, and everything is based on construction. With your experience, I think mass production is a good word!"

Wen Jiu's tone was a little excited, he smiled and said: "After the reservoir is dug, I will build chicken and duck houses to raise chickens and ducks in batches, and also build a few pig farms.

The pig farm cannot be delayed, tomorrow we will assign a group of people to build a pig farm, and raise five or six hundred pigs first."

Wen Jiu said this and waved to the side.

Ji Lanzhou came over with a cold face: "What does Prince Yongle want?"

"Go, pass on my royal decree to the neighboring counties and the neighboring Yunzhou to buy up a large number of squeezed chickens, ducks, sows and piglets. I want to engage in breeding!"

Ji Lanzhou said coldly: "Your Majesty, I am ordered to protect your safety and cannot leave you even a step."

Wen Jiu scratched his ears after hearing this and said to Qiao Shinian, "See, this guy is so cold and unkind."

Qiao Shinian looked disdainful, then handed him his thermos cup: "Here, drink some water and continue working. I'll help you issue orders."

"Thank you, sister. I'll get on with it! I'll probably..." Wen Jiu hooked his finger at Ji Lanzhou, who respectfully took out a watch face. "I'll probably be back around five."

Qiao Shinian nodded, then walked to Yingzhu who was leading the horse, took the reins and climbed on the horse.

Seeing Qiao Shinian walking away, Wen Jiu put away his grin and turned to look at Ji Lanzhou: "Don't look at her anymore, she's gone! She won't like you, give up."

"Your Highness, please don't joke around." Ji Lanzhou clasped his fists and bowed his head and said solemnly.

"I'm not kidding. I'm just reminding you." Wen Jiu said as he slid down the slope, picked up his hoe and started digging hard.

"Miss, I think Prince Yongle will be very powerful this time. The Jiang family, who lost their fortune in his hands, will definitely not let it go." Yingzhu said, "We should go out less recently to avoid running into people who want to make trouble for you."

"It's okay, just keep me safe, Wen Jiu will handle the rest himself." Qiao Shinian said nonchalantly. Walking in the fields, looking at the groups of people sowing in the fields, she suddenly thought of something.

But I had just left Wen Jiu and it was not convenient for me to go back, so I had to wait until Wen Jiu came back in the evening.
