"The Farmer's Fat Wife" - Fat Men Are All Potential Stocks (Chapter 27...)

This whole thing is pointless and a waste of time; we should focus on taking care of ourselves.

With such a large new plot of land at home to develop, I don't have time to bother others.

The land in the south thrives because of water, but it is also always troubled by water.

Towards the end of the dynasty, water conservancy projects were carried out with shoddy workmanship, resulting in numerous substandard projects that were simply tolerable.

Ye Xiqing, a local warlord, was obviously not someone to be trifled with. He instructed the water conservancy department to summon skilled water engineers from all over the country to resurvey the river channels, dredge silted-up sections, and reinforce damaged dikes.

While we're at it, let's also do a South-to-North Water Diversion Project and dredge the abandoned canals in the north to facilitate north-south transportation.

Before the advent of trains, water transport was the most convenient option. We must hurry and build it in the early days of the People's Republic of China, otherwise we cannot guarantee its quality later on.

If the river repairs were entirely funded by recruitment, the financial expenditure would be no less than that of a war. But the repairs still had to be done. The government issued national bonds to the people and used those bonds to carry out the repairs.

The interest from government bonds is used to attract deposits, the wages of river workers are paid to them, the expenses of river workers are then recycled back, and the money is used to repay government bonds. Those who buy government bonds earn interest, and after one cycle, a perpetual motion machine is formed.

I'll also open an insurance business. When I have money, I can spend a little to deal with possible unforeseen disasters and buy peace of mind.

This is why Ye Xiqing wanted to do everything she could in the early stages of starting her business. The fresh water could be circulated indefinitely, but in the later stages, there would definitely be more water being diverted.

The harm caused by damming a river far exceeds any action taken against it. In fact, when a team is streamlined and efficient, its operations become more flexible.

The official establishment of the Aoki Kingdom not only involves the implementation of various new policies, but also the promotion of new ideas and new understandings.

By opening new schools, encouraging natural sciences, and promoting positive ideas, the hope is that the next generation of Aoki Country will have a different understanding.

In an environment where moral education is emphasized and hard work leads to wealth, the people of Aoki have a very positive and optimistic attitude towards life.

Labor brings results, and after a hard day's work, one can leisurely enjoy a cup of tea. Who wouldn't be optimistic?

High expenditures are fine; don't always think about saving on labor costs.

In order to develop productivity, we have abandoned human survival. After addressing the question of who produces productivity, we should explore a new question: to whom should productivity be developed?

The people of the old dynasty couldn't survive because of insufficient productivity, underdeveloped farming techniques, laziness, and the fact that they wouldn't work unless whipped. Natural disasters were uncontrollable, and a single disaster could wipe out several years of hard work.

It's because the old dynasty stopped performing and openly took away 50% of the grain.

Will this magical, non-human-made productivity ever last until everything is foolproof and there are enough bags?

Therefore, the basic strategy of the Qingmu Kingdom is still to focus on population, using its large population to make up for the loss of individual productivity.

Upon closer examination, the strategies are actually no different from those of previous dynasties, and examples can be found for each.

The only difference is that the Kingdom of Aoki now recognizes the reproductive value of women, unlike before when it both needed and devalued them.

Everything produced has value, except for human beings. So how can human beings not be cheap goods?

Having children does not have a negative impact. Women of childbearing age in the countryside are still actively having children. It is not a problem to enter officialdom after having one child. The overall atmosphere in Qingmu Kingdom is relaxed, and there is no sense of urgency that having a child will ruin one's life.

As a new generation of children grows up and the old, outdated ideas die out, the world will definitely become a different place.

After each battle, Ye Xiqing would take several years to recuperate, and this time was no exception.

Although she caused a major incident with the Manichaeans, she did not immediately send troops to fight, nor did she have the idea of ​​dividing the power between the Yellow Earth King and the Yellow Earth King.

Although she stopped causing trouble, the seeds of suspicion had already been sown among the Yellow Soil King.

It has been more than ten years since Ye Xiqing raised his army, and the male lead and the female supporting character have a son and a daughter.

As the villainous female supporting character, Han Mu'e naturally fell in love with the male lead the moment she saw him.

But even marriages have a seven-year itch, and in the information age, it's hard for fans to like a celebrity who has carefully crafted their persona for more than two years.

It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that you could watch a male protagonist who's so chauvinistic and constantly exposes his flaws for ten years without getting tired of him.

If the female supporting character can do this, then what gives you the right to call her vicious? Who else can achieve this level of skill? Why criticize someone's moral character?

Although Han Mu'e in this world has unusually remained single for over ten years with the male lead, her patience with him has definitely decreased year by year.

Unlike when they first got married, she no longer looked at the husband with adoration and reverence, as if he were a god. Now, many mundane issues, like daily necessities, began to arise between them.

Han Mu'e was naturally unhappy about the incident caused by the male lead, not because of the incident itself, but because of the accumulation of old conflicts.

The male protagonist is not a considerate person who takes care of his wife's feelings. Many conflicts have accumulated over time, to the point that any trigger point can ignite his anger, and this time is no exception.

Han Mu'e was filled with anger. The male lead hadn't really liked her when he married her; he just happened to be there. Seeing Han Mu'e's expression made him feel annoyed, so his explanation was far from pleasant.

Fortunately, after so many years of trials and tribulations, Chen Erlang had become very considerate and immediately helped his brother explain.

Over the years, Han Mu'e has also realized that her husband has not been fully devoted to her, and her emotions have become increasingly irritable.

She wanted to turn her head to the male lead's, but he didn't want to talk to her, and she didn't want to communicate with him properly either.

"You don't need to lead the troops tomorrow; I'll lead them myself."

The male protagonist suddenly looked up: "What?"

Han Mu'e was not acting on impulse. The next day, she rode to the army camp and made the troops led by the male protagonist obey her command from then on.

The male protagonist has his own team under the Yellow Soil Heavenly King, half of whom are his fellow villagers who rose up with him, and the other half are people who gathered after arriving under the Yellow Soil Heavenly King.

No matter how they arrived, everyone recognized the commander's wife. They looked at each other, puzzled, not knowing what was going on.

The male protagonist rode up on his horse and grabbed her reins: "What's wrong with you!"

Han Mu'e ignored him and whipped his hand away: "Who said I'm crazy? What, if Qingmu Tianwang can do it, why can't I?"

Male lead: ...

This is probably the benefit of openly proclaiming the return of women's lives. No matter who it is, once a precedent is set, regardless of whether they are women from the Green Wood Kingdom or not, they will say why women from the Green Wood Kingdom can do it, but they cannot.

Poor women say this to poor families, and rich women say this to rich families.

King Huangrang was quite surprised by Han Mu'e's actions. He certainly couldn't agree with Qingmu Kingdom's approach, but she was, after all, his own daughter and should have more freedom.

Han Mu'e insisted on taking back the male lead's military power, which Huang Rang Tianwang naturally could not agree to. So Han Mu'e recruited another group of female soldiers, and while the male lead trained there, she trained there as well.

The two of them stayed at home, each with a squad of guards, treating each other with cold indifference. Han Mu'e's mother couldn't help but advise her, "You both have two children, why are you still making such a fuss?"

Han Mu'e didn't know what she was doing, she just felt frustrated. Going out to fight Chen Dalang made her feel much better than before.

Han's mother couldn't help but sigh. Her daughter was truly spoiled. "Then what will happen to the child if you leave?"

Hearing this, Han Mu'e said indifferently, "I gave it to his brother."

After Chen Erlang stayed, he naturally lived in their mansion.

Before being castrated in Qingmu Kingdom, Chen Erlang offered his children several times, but no one knows where they went. Since he had no children of his own, he doted on his elder brother's children and took meticulous care of them.

Looking at the gentle and considerate Chen Erlang and the silent Chen Dalang, Han Mu'e couldn't help but have a thought: the women of Qingmu Kingdom are quite good at taking care of men.

However, as she thought about it, she quickly remembered how awful Chen Dalang was, and this time she would definitely not bow down to him!

Ye Xiqing received the reports that kept coming from the spies and couldn't help but burst into laughter again.

She did write that letter to drive a wedge between the female supporting character and the male lead, and she did have the male lead's brother deliver the letter to avoid unnecessary trouble, but why does it feel like this development is getting more and more wrong?

The male lead is having a cold war with the female supporting character outside, while his younger brother is helping her take care of her child at home.

Why does she feel that the female supporting character and the male lead's younger brother are more like a couple?

Upon discovering this, Ye Xiqing immediately got excited and recruited an entertainment team to write a new play for her.

It tells the story of a man who is very smart and good at business, but because of his strong personality, he neglects his wife and his younger brother takes advantage of the situation.

If the story is told to be more romantic and poignant, it will not only be performed in Aoki Province, but also printed and distributed in other places.

Aoki Kingdom improved printing techniques, and the south was very suitable for producing bamboo and wood, which could be used to produce bamboo paper. The government promoted copyright protection laws and intellectual property protection laws, and the publishing industry was very developed, with books being a lucrative industry.

Intense competition breeds innovation, and Aoki Country's storybooks sell very well abroad, leading to the emergence of booksellers who specialize in selling books.

This book doesn't need any help from publishers; the government is giving it a huge push, so it's bound to be a bestseller!

The unique customs of the Kingdom of Aoki are still considered highly rebellious in the land of old laws, but the land of old laws cannot even ban its currency, let alone its books.

This love triangle drama quickly became a bestseller among the Yellow Soil Kings.

Nobles in various places must have been bored out of their minds every day. When they were bored, they would look for entertainment. Even if it was a forbidden book, someone would still secretly read it and then find that the story looked so familiar.

Everyone looked at Han Mu'e's strange family, not daring to tell the person involved, but the person involved could definitely feel the eerie atmosphere.

Later, everyone couldn't take it anymore and asked the people around them, "What's wrong with you guys?!"

Under repeated questioning, the people around them showed them the script, and the three of them immediately threw the book down and started spouting nonsense!

My brother would never betray me / I would never betray my older brother / I would never betray my husband!

The three of them unanimously loathed this storybook, but some things written down can sometimes serve as criticism, and sometimes as a reminder.

Originally, there was nothing to think about, but after this sudden reminder, why did the atmosphere suddenly become a little strange when Han Mu'e and Chen Erlang met in private again?

Ye Xiqing received the reply and laughed for three days straight, while the system was driven crazy: Host! Do you even have the energy?! Do you even have the energy?!

That was really exciting. When the team was smaller, Ye Xiqing sometimes had to do everything herself.

As the territory of the Green Wood Kingdom grew larger and its population increased, talented people flocked to it like a converging river, and there were capable people in charge of all aspects, so she didn't have to worry about anything herself.

That's alright, she'll find some fun for herself.

Ye Xiqing was busy having fun and didn't care about other people's business, so the world was much more peaceful.

However, things didn't stay that peaceful forever. Five years later, the national debt was paid off, and the granaries were full again.

It's easy to guess what will happen next.
