On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Lin Zhen smiled evilly, and slid his big hands down to pinch Murong Yan's delicate buttocks.

Murong Yan was startled and quickly let go of Lin Zhen: "Stop it! I... am not able to do this these few days."

"what?"

Lin Zhen suddenly showed a bitter expression.

Although he had sex with Huanbi several times in Dai County, the little girl was too weak to handle the tossing and turning, and it was wartime, so Lin Zhen was always absent-minded and couldn't enjoy himself.

On the way back, he was thinking about spending some time with Murong Yan, but he didn't expect that she was not available!

It seems that this passion can only be vented on Sima Chunlei and Gu Zhen.

Murong Yan seemed to have a telepathic connection with Lin Zhen. She instantly saw through his thoughts and then revealed a flattering expression. She took his hand and said, "Alright, alright. I'll make it up to you in a few days!"

"Really?"

"Really!" Murong Yan stood on tiptoe and kissed Lin Zhen's lips gently, full of affection. Then she smiled and said, "Come on, accompany me to the back garden to take a look!"

......

Because the back garden has been renovated, it is very different from before.

Although it is autumn, the garden is full of flowers and fragrance. The gorgeous peonies stand proudly on the branches, with layers of petals, red like fire, pink like clouds, exuding a graceful and luxurious atmosphere.

Murong Yan sat down at the stone table, and Lin Zhen sat beside her.

"Mushuyue, haven't the two beloved concubines arrived yet?"

Murong Wushe is a male in appearance after all, so he consciously does security work in the surrounding area.

Musk Moon, the little girl who suddenly rose to power, has been standing behind Murong Yan.

"Your Majesty, I have already sent someone to invite her, but the Imperial Concubine said she needed to dress up a bit and will be here soon. Concubine Ning is with the Imperial Concubine."

"Yes." Murong Yan nodded, looked at Lin Zhen, and shook Lin Zhen's hand in front of the palace maids. "My husband, Gu Yunsong's rebellion is punishable by law, and his entire clan should be executed. I also think that his generals and soldiers should all be punished. What are your thoughts?"

Lin Zhen replied, "Silly boy, population is our country's greatest asset, and we must not kill them at will. It's true that Gu Yunsong rebelled, but he received the punishment he deserved. As for his family, they were demoted to commoners and given a few acres of land. I've already taken care of the soldiers, and I'll punish them by having them build bridges and roads from Dai County all the way to Taihang Mountain."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, my husband." Murong Yan personally raised her jade hand to pour tea for Lin Zhen. "Then how should we reward the meritorious soldiers? Especially the fat man. I heard that he played an indispensable role in this great event where 5,000 defeated 100,000."

"Him? Oh, don't reward him."

"Why? Aren't you two best brothers?"

"We are brothers, but the fat guy's personality is only good for fighting, not for major responsibilities. This time, 5,000 defeated 100,000. It was a feat, but it was actually an accident. If he hadn't disobeyed orders and led his soldiers to charge recklessly in the barracks, there wouldn't have been so many casualties."

"But there wasn't the big victory later, right?"

"That's right, so this is a blessing in disguise. But coincidences like this don't happen often, so I've already thought of a reward for the fat man. I'll give him a thousand taels of gold from my little treasury."

Murong Yan was stunned for a moment, then she thought of something and smiled: "Haha, that's indeed Fatty's personality. Rewarding him with gold is more appropriate than rewarding him with an official position."

Lin Zhen took a sip of tea and said, "Yan'er, after the war is over, I have decided to build roads across the country."

"Repair the road? Why? Can't the current road be used?"

"It's usable, but the road conditions are terrible. Many places have dirt roads, and when it rains, they become muddy, making transportation inconvenient. So I plan to have the Ministry of Works recruit able-bodied men to start building roads from the capital, stretching east, west, south, and north. At the very least, we need to ensure that every city has a usable, flat road leading to the capital."

Murong Yan couldn't help but stick out her pink tongue: "That should cost a lot of money, right?"

"Yan'er, money is meant to be spent. If you don't spend it, it'll just be a pile of junk. Besides, I don't plan to invest all this time. Instead, I'll use merchants and gentry."

"My dear, those people won't pay unless you put a knife to their necks and threaten them."

"Of course they won't pay if there's no benefit, but what if we charge a toll for the road we're building?"

"Ah!?" Murong Yan's jaw nearly dropped. "You're charging a toll on the road? Aren't you afraid the people will revolt?"

"Hahahaha." Lin Zhen scratched her nose lovingly. "Of course not. We can divide the road into sections and collect tolls by section. For example, the distance from Dai County to the capital is 260 miles. Whoever pays for the construction of this section of the road can collect tolls on this section. Of course, we can't collect tolls forever. It's for three years! If multiple people invest, we can share the profits according to a certain ratio. Just like the Hero Casino gives you dividends every month."

Murong Yan rolled her eyes. "Tsk, you still have the nerve to say that? Your casino has a monthly turnover of hundreds of thousands of taels, and you just gave me ten thousand!"

Talking about the past, Murong Yan suddenly felt like she was in a dream.

A few months ago, she and Lin Zhen were sworn enemies. However, after many things happened, sparks flew between the two, and now they are a couple that cannot be made public.

This change was neither sudden nor unpredictable, as if everything was planned.

Lin Zhen touched his nose and thought that he was indeed a bit stingy towards Murong Yan.

But as a man, you should never put money in the hands of a woman.

Because you have no idea what useless things she will spend her money on.

"If there's no problem, I'll ask the Ministry of Industry to issue a document."

"Since you have spoken, how dare I say no?" Murong Yan said and poured tea for Lin Zhen again.

"There's one more thing. Two rivers flow through the capital. I plan to widen them and build a canal. This will facilitate water transportation and greatly stimulate the economy. When the prince returns from the war, I'll build a canal southward, connecting various places."

"Okay, okay, my husband, do whatever you want. I'm handing over the country to you now, but there's one thing! You're not allowed to ask me for money! The Ministry of Revenue is in dire straits right now."

"Of course I won't use the country's money."

Lin Zhen has this confidence.

Today's merchants are still at the stage of buying and selling, so it is very easy to trick them into buying shares through bidding.

Moreover, Lin Zhen’s plan was not like that of later generations, where whoever won the bid would get the money directly. Instead, he would let them take advantage of it for three years and then take it back into state ownership. When the time was right, Lin Zhen would begin to implement the planned economy.
