She transmigrated into a widow and farmed to raise vests.

The construction of official roads is a matter of great importance, but there are regulations governing their construction. Construction is not permitted in areas where the required number of people is insufficient. Originally, the purpose was to build official roads.

However, the villages on both sides were too scattered, and the number of people required to reach the town was required for access to the official road.

This is also why the official road has been delayed for so long.

If Young Master Qin has a solution, then he will certainly thank Young Master Qin properly.

"This is indeed a very troublesome matter. Please tell me if you have any solutions!"

Seeing Zhao Lin's attitude, Qin Yu knew that the matter could be discussed, so he continued.

“I have a way to combine several villages, merge them into a town, and then apply for the construction of an official road.”

"I know that Lord Zhao must have thought about merging the scattered village chiefs, but it is difficult to implement for a certain reason. I have a solution!"

"Tell me slowly!" Zhao Lin became increasingly nervous when he heard Qin Yu say he had a solution.

"We want them to leave, but they don't have the skills to survive, or rather, they don't have anything that will allow them to earn money and live a stable life, so it's impossible to get them to leave!"

Qin Yu came up with a solution; she knew that soybeans, tofu, and soy sauce were already available at this time.

But soybeans are not a staple food, so they don't grow many.

In addition, the land is not fertile, so if staple food is to be grown, soybeans will not be grown at all.

Therefore, not many people grow soybeans, so Qin Yu wants them to grow more soybeans.

“I am willing to cooperate with the imperial court to establish a workshop for producing soybean by-products, and settle young laborers in the workshop to solve their survival problems.”

"Firstly, it solved the problem of people's survival."

Secondly, the money earned can be used to replenish the national treasury.

The third reason was to prevent her from being framed by envious people if her business prospered, since she had the imperial court as her backer.

The people trust her, and no one bullies her; all of this is beneficial to her!

"this......"

Zhao Lin was somewhat puzzled as to why they should cooperate with the imperial court.

Given Young Master Qin's abilities, he must have a way to do it himself.

"Young Master Qin, I don't understand. As you said, you can certainly do it yourself. Isn't this just giving money away to the imperial court?"

Indeed, cooperating with the imperial court would mean Qin Yu would lose a lot of benefits.

But it was precisely because of her thinking that she considered the bigger picture.

The imperial court will surely know about what is produced.

Instead of waiting for reports to be submitted through all levels, it would be better to join forces with the imperial court, which would put the court at ease.

"Although I am just a commoner, I know the principle that a country must exist before a family can exist. Official roads need to be built and provisions need to be delivered. I am doing this for my own benefit. I have the support of the imperial court, and the court will naturally protect me. What reason do I have to be unwilling?"

Qin Yu's words, though seemingly righteous, actually had a hidden agenda, because what he was about to do required reporting to higher authorities.

"After merging villages and towns, the people will naturally need land and money to live and work in peace and contentment. In this way, the construction of the official road can also be put on the agenda. What do you think, Lord Zhao?"

Zhao Lin was stunned after hearing Qin Yu's words.

“I told you before that you have a heart full of love. With such a heart, why are you unwilling to meet the Emperor? Perhaps you could even become an official.”

Zhao Lin didn't understand.

All of the previous events show that Prince Qin is a very benevolent person, and the things he does are beneficial to the country and its people.

But is it true that he doesn't covet fame or fortune?

"Lord Zhao, I don't have that much ability. I just want to make some money or help some people. As for officialdom and fame, it's not for me."

She never considered becoming an official.

And she doesn't want to do it; she just wants to be a money-making expert, earn money to support her family, and retire to watch the sunset someday!

She has two young children at home who are officials; perhaps one day they will pass the imperial examinations and become officials themselves.

"Lord Zhao, can I trust you?"

Qin Yu suddenly asked a serious question.

Zhao Lin was stunned, somewhat confused as to what it meant.

When he saw Qin Gongzi's expression more closely, his heart skipped a beat.

"Young Master Qin, what you've done is for my future, so naturally I completely trust you. Rest assured, I won't divulge anything you say, as long as you give the order!"

Although Zhao Lin did not know the meaning of Young Master Qin's words, he would definitely do as Young Master Qin instructed, just as he said.

"Lord Zhao, this matter is neither trivial nor trivial. I would like to ask you to find a way to inform the Emperor about this matter, and to keep it a secret from others."

"Huh?" Zhao Lin clicked his tongue in surprise. This matter was bound to be heard from above.

"If it's reported up the chain of command, someone will definitely find out!"

"Therefore, Lord Zhao must find a way, and especially not let Lord Liu or any of the prime ministers know about it!"

"This is a bit difficult!" Zhao Lin was clearly somewhat troubled.

"Three days later, I will bring some things for you to send to the capital. I will have Zhuifeng deliver them directly to the Emperor. Because when I say 'the court,' I mean the Emperor!"

Qin Yu gave an explanation.

Actually, this matter is quite difficult; once it's reported, the higher-ups will find out.

So the real challenge was figuring out how to evade these eyes and get to the emperor.

She was unwilling, but there were many high-ranking officials in the court, and even more people would be involved, which would lead to disagreements.

Those high-ranking officials all want to be in charge, so it won't be up to her to decide in the end.

It's quite possible that she's doing the work for these high-ranking officials, rather than for the imperial court.

Therefore, this matter can only be discussed with the emperor, not with those powerful officials.

"Don't worry, Lord Zhao. As long as you find a way to send the items to the capital, your promotion is just around the corner. I won't harm you!"

Seeing how serious she was, Zhao Lin, though unsure why she was being so cautious, could tell there was a reason behind it.

"Young Master Qin, what are you saying? I'm not worried that you'll harm me. If you really wanted to harm me, you wouldn't have given me this advice!"

However, the fact that Liu Zheng was not told was somewhat unexpected to him.

Since he said so, I'll just do as he says!

After Qin Yu and Zhao Lin finished discussing the matter, it was already dark when they returned from the county government office.

"Zhuifeng, you heard it just now, I need you to go to the capital. What do you think?"

"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely do what you asked me to do!"

Without any hesitation, Zhui Feng was determined to do whatever Qin Yu said!

"Then you should take two people with you. When the time comes, you need to deliver the items and letters to the capital and see the Emperor!"

She had no intention of meeting the emperor, nor did she intend to become an official.

However, there are some things that can only be done by cooperating with the emperor!

Back home, Qin Yu began to do what he needed to do.

Based on the spatial imprints in her mind, she easily drew the things she needed.

They found people to start work the next day.

The location was set up in the courtyard of the grass, and she instructed them to arrange their belongings according to her instructions.

They asked Qin's father to drive a horse-drawn carriage to collect soybeans from nearby villages, which were then transported to the entrance of Jingcao Courtyard that evening.

The next morning, the girls rested while the boys went to help.

Inside the warehouse, a huge wooden stick hung from the roof beam.

Soybeans wrapped in burlap were hanging in the middle.

They would pound away, one stroke at a time, until they got tired, then switch to another person.

Until the clear, pale yellow soybean oil drips down.
