"La la la, la la la, I'm a newspaper seller..."

"Newspapers for sale! Newspapers for sale! One penny a newspaper, the textile factory is hiring..."

Accompanied by clear and resounding calls, a small figure was seen swiftly shuttling through the bustling streets and alleys. He looked only about ten years old, but he had already shouldered the heavy burden of life at an early age.

A slightly worn cloth bag slung across his small frame was filled with newspapers that smelled of ink. His right hand was raised high, and the newspapers in his hand fluttered in the wind, like a flag attracting people's attention.

The child, carrying a bag and holding a newspaper, quickly attracted everyone's attention. Soon, he was surrounded by a crowd of curious people.

People reached out their hands, vying to buy this newspaper that carried hope and opportunity. After receiving the newspaper, they quickly dispersed, some standing still, while others found a shady spot to sit on the ground, each one concentrating on reading the words above.

Among the group, a ragged woman was particularly eye-catching. She was thin and haggard, with the vicissitudes of life leaving deep and shallow marks on her face.

At that moment, she was craning her neck and listening attentively to someone reading out the job advertisements in the newspaper. When she heard the specific requirements and benefits for the textile factory's recruitment, a glimmer of surprise suddenly flashed in the woman's dull eyes.

She didn't even bother to go buy groceries. She packed up her things in a hurry, and then ran towards home with her little feet that were somewhat deformed from years of hard work.

The woman was very excited along the way. She had missed so many job opportunities before, and she had to seize this one no matter what.

Ever since one of the neighbors started working at the factory established by the Ministry of Industry, their lives have changed dramatically. Before, the family toiled year-round and could only afford to eat meat a few times a day, but now they can feast on delicious meat every now and then. How could such a life not be envied by those around them?

There are five laborers in their family. If they can successfully register and pass the screening this time, they may be able to live a wealthy life like their neighbors.

Thinking of this, the woman quickened her pace.

Atop a towering three-story building constructed of sturdy concrete, Qianlong gazed down with a smile at the bustling streets below. He had taken in every scene that had just unfolded. Witnessing the rapid changes in his country, his heart was filled with joy.

"Ziwei, look at it now. Large-scale factories have been established in many places, and the newly created jobs are countless! Because of this, the living standards of our people are also rising steadily!" Qianlong said enthusiastically.

"In recent years, every province has been actively building roads. Coupled with the continuous improvement and upgrading of transportation tools, transportation efficiency has increased significantly, and those merchants are very happy! As a result, more and more people are devoting themselves to business, and our country's annual tax revenue is also rising..."

Qianlong was as excited as a child, and talked incessantly about his feelings about the great changes in the country.

Since the implementation of industrialization, the country has undergone such a profound transformation. His decisive decision to end the policy of isolation and actively promote exchanges with the world was truly a wise move!

In this way, they were able to learn from many useful aspects of other countries, thereby promoting the prosperity of their country.

At this moment, Qianlong's heart was like a vast ocean, surging and full of emotion.

Just as he looked at Ziwei with full anticipation, he realized that her eyes were never on him, but were completely focused on playing with the adorable doll in her arms. This scene made him feel a sense of loss and frustration, and his original enthusiasm was like being poured with a basin of cold water, instantly extinguished.

He couldn't help but frown and asked angrily: "Why are you here to take care of Xuanxuan? Where are Fukangan and others?" There was obvious dissatisfaction and questioning in his voice.

Hearing this, Ziwei finally raised her head, glanced at him lightly, and replied slowly: "Father Emperor, have you forgotten? Wasn't Yaolin sent to expand the territory by you personally two days ago? How come you don't remember it so quickly? If you feel any discomfort in your body, you must tell your son." After that, she lowered her head and continued to gently coax the child in her arms.

However, Qianlong didn't seem to care at all about Fu Kang'an being sent away. He listened carefully to Ziwei's caring words. The anger on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a full smile, as if he had suddenly become several years younger.

He strode to Ziwei, took the delicate little girl from her arms, and teased her gently.

It has to be said that the daughter born to these two is simply a natural beauty, with delicate features like a fairy in a painting, which makes people love her. Moreover, this little girl is not only beautiful, but also has a very well-behaved and sensible personality, which makes people feel happy when they see her.

As expected of him, he has his own genes, he is the president!

Ziwei stood by the window, looking at the prosperity outside, a charming smile spreading across her lips. This land never disappoints, it truly produces so many talented people. Now it can be said that no country in the world can compare to the Qing Dynasty.

The humiliation that followed would never happen again.

"Father Emperor, I leave Xuanxuan to you. I'm going to help Yaolin expand its territory and strive to rule Asia as soon as possible~~~~~~~"

Especially the area where oil is flooded must be incorporated into the territory of the Qing Dynasty.

Before Qianlong could respond, Ziwei disappeared out the window.

Qianlong looked out the window and continued to tease the girl in his arms.

Throughout history, which emperor had such ability as him to govern the country into a true Celestial Empire?

All this is thanks to his good daughter——
