Chapter 666 Future

Imperial study.

Xiao Jiuyue saw with her own eyes the framed letter and Wanmin's thank-you letter hanging in the most conspicuous place in the imperial study, and she was stunned.

"This, this may be unique, right?" Xiao Jiuyue thought. She had never seen a thank-you letter from the people to the queen hanging in the imperial study!

"In the entire South Vietnam, there is no other queen like you." Jun Lie praised Xiao Jiuyue and said, "If it weren't for the queen, where would I, Jun Lie, be when Jiashui City was in trouble?"

"Yes, indeed." Xiao Jiuyue thought of her pregnancy, which had been tiring. She said, "You were also a good emperor. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the weather was good!"

"Then, let's work together to make South Vietnam better and better." Jun Lie took her hand, walked to the door of the imperial study, and looked into the distance. "When little Xingxing grows up, we will go to see the beautiful mountains and rivers of South Vietnam, how about it?"

"Okay." Xiao Jiuyue nodded and said, "But, does that take more than ten or twenty years?"

"How could that be?" Jun Lie took her hand and said, "We can tour the south, the east, and the south of the Yangtze River. We can go on a secret tour, once a year, or twice in three years. How about that?"

"Great!" Xiao Jiuyue's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "After all, the salt well and Fengchunlou can both earn us money. Then we can take a good look at this beautiful land!"

"It's a deal?" Jun Lie raised his hand. Xiao Jiuyue extended her pinky finger and hooked it with his, saying, "It's a deal."

The hot summer passed slowly, and Little Star started to grow teeth, then learned to sit and play by himself. By August, Little Star could already crawl all over the ground!

In order to prevent Little Star from falling or crawling on the ground, Jun Lie ordered people to cover the entire house with soft carpets so that Little Star could crawl all over the floor.

Autumn, the season of harvest!

The thing that Jun Lie cares about most is the important event of autumn harvest. This matter has been discussed in the court. Every day when Xiao Jiuyue sees Jun Lie coming home from court with a smile on his face, he must have received good news from somewhere.

"Good news! Look, how much grain production has Hongdu produced this year?" Jun Lieren was already overjoyed before he even entered the house.

"How much?" Xiao Jiuyue asked curiously, "Double compared to last year?"

"Guess again." Jun Lie's smile reached his ears. After becoming the emperor, Jun Lie found that what he cared about now was food, whether the people could fill their stomachs and have clothes to wear!

"Double?" Xiao Jiuyue was shocked. "There were already quite a few in Hongdu last year. Could there be even more this year?"

"Of course." Jun Lie said affirmatively: "Rong Xun is indeed a talent!"

Since he ascended the throne last year, he promoted Rong Xun from the magistrate of Lancang County to the prefect of Hongdu!

"Rong Xun became the prefect of Hongdu. He made all the people in Hongdu farm according to your method."

Jun Lie's words of praise could hardly conceal his happiness. He said, "Those gentry, wealthy people, and landlords were all tough bones to chew. Now that Rong Xun has chewed them down, the grain production will be greatly increased."

"Also, the Xiangcheng that Big Brother Xiao Jialing went to this year has doubled compared to last year. With such achievements, Big Brother can stay for a few more years and then return to Shengjing!"

Jun Lie happily spoke of the bumper harvests in various places, saying, "As for the manufacturing of water wheels and threshers, they are getting better and better. Farmland irrigation is also more convenient than before."

"Yuer, this is all thanks to you." Jun Lie stepped forward, holding her tightly in his arms, and said, "Yuer, South Vietnam will get better and better."

"It's all our credit." Xiao Jiuyue rested her chin on his shoulder, feeling his joy. She was also in a good mood and said, "The girls' school in Shengjing has been very successful this year. Next year, can we try to run girls' schools in Hongdu, Xiangcheng, Jiashuicheng and other prefectures?"

"If it goes well, we can set up girls' schools in all the capital cities across the country next year, what do you think?" Xiao Jiuyue was still thinking about the girls from poor families. As long as she could help a small number of people, she believed that if the girls helped each other in the future, one day, the lives of women would get better and better!

"It doesn't have to be the year after next. Next year, we'll open girls' schools in every prefecture." Jun Lie looked down at her and said, "Don't worry about money. The treasury was empty before because of wars and constant disasters."

"Wars require food and fodder, disasters require relief and silver, and the treasury was short of money. Now it's different. The people have had a bumper harvest in the autumn, and everyone has food in their pockets!"

"We are now trading and intermarrying with Xijiang. A few days ago, General Mu Cheng of Xijiang said he would come to pay tribute at the end of this year. There is also constant good news from Jiashui City!"

"Glass bottles from Xijiang State have entered Nanyue on a large scale. Nanyue's leather, grain, and cloth have also been sold to Xijiang. From now on, the people of the two countries will become more and more stable."

"As for Yongzhao, Jinzhou is guarded by Qin Tao. The people of Yongzhao who were not convinced were frightened by Qin Tao in one battle. Now, there is peace!"

Jun Lie's words were filled with relief. He said, "The most important thing is Lingnan. Guess how Lingnan is doing now?"

"It should be much better than before!" Xiao Jiuyue said, "Dad and the others taught us how to farm since they came back from Lingnan. We have more food now than before. To fill their stomachs, the people will definitely reclaim wasteland. Now that a few years have passed, there will definitely be no shortage of food!"

"Yes." Jun Lie nodded affirmatively: "Not only will there be no shortage of food, I'm also planning to build roads."

Xiao Jiuyue was shocked and asked, "The roads in Lingnan are difficult to repair. There are only mountains there."

Although Xiao Jiuyue had never been there, he had a general idea of ​​it. There were high mountains everywhere, and one had to climb over one mountain after another to reach Lingnan!

"Didn't you say that to get rich, you must first build roads?"

Jun Lie smiled and said, "The longans, lychees, and mango branches from Lingnan are all delicious. Even the canned ones are so delicious. If they were fresh fruits, they would definitely be even better. I've already discussed this with the ministers. Although building a road is difficult, as long as it borders Yancheng, we can use water transportation!"

"And your Bada Escort Agency, I have already met He Changqing and Chu Ang." Jun Lie thought about how the two of them trembled when they saw him, as if he were a tiger.

"Their escort agency does a great job. There are branches in every state and county, with special post stations." Xiao Jiuyue was familiar with the escort agency. After all, when she planned it, she did it according to the express delivery methods of later generations!

Point to point, once the escort agency's network is rolled out, it will be convenient to deliver things in the future.

"Then, next year we can eat lychees and longans from Lingnan? Fresh ones?" Xiao Jiuyue's eyes were full of anticipation.

"Yes." Jun Lie patted his chest and promised: "Next year, I will definitely let you eat fresh lychees and longans, as well as the seafood you like."
