Chapter 644 Preparing for Action
Pingzhou Changli, Qinfu
Zhou Yuanhua is taking Lu Songli's pulse.
Lu Songli didn't say anything, but the guess in his mind was almost correct.
Zhou Yuanhua was in a dilemma, his face wrinkled and his eyebrows were almost knotted. He seemed to be unwilling to believe it, and used his other hand to feel Lu Songli's pulse.
"Governor, you have a slippery pulse." How could this be? Zhou Yuanhua was puzzled. He was the one who prescribed the medicine the governor drank afterwards.
Lu Songli nodded, indicating that she understood.
At the time, she had Qin Sheng take her outside and even took medicine afterward, all to prevent pregnancy. Unexpectedly, despite taking all the precautions, she still got pregnant. It could only be called fate.
"Governor, Chunhong's secret medicine is too overbearing." Zhou Yuanhua thought about it and felt that the problem could only be with Chunhong's secret medicine from the previous dynasty.
"What should we do now?" Hongluo, who was serving on the side, asked anxiously.
Hong Luo knew something about the governor's contraception and agreed with it in her heart.
She had heard some old people talk about childbirth. They said that pregnancy and childbirth were like going through the gates of hell. The governor was still young and had more body to grow. It would be better for him to get pregnant again in a few years than now.
Zhou Yuanhua tactfully advised, "Governor, how about this? If you drink that kind of medicine again, who knows if something bad will happen." He knew too little about the secret medicine of the previous dynasty, and he had no samples to study.
Lu Songli understood his hidden meaning. If she forcibly aborted the baby, it might cause great harm to her body.
Lu Songli sighed. She didn't ask Zhou Yuanhua whether the medicine she drank afterwards had any effect on the fetus. Originally, this child was born after Qin Sheng took the secret medicine. It didn't make much sense to ask or not. Let's wait and see after the baby is born.
Yes, Lu Songli has already planned to give birth to the child.
"Doctor Zhou, I understand."
There was nothing else to do, so Lu Songli asked Hongluo to see the guest off on her behalf.
Then she felt a little sleepy, so she took a nap. After waking up, she lay down for a while. When she got up again, she felt much more energetic.
At this time, Lu Songli had adjusted her mentality.
The arrival of a child is also fate.
Life cannot be smooth sailing, there will always be some unexpected surprises.
Since the accident has happened, adjust yourself to accept it. Besides, it is not without benefits.
She was pregnant, and if the birth went smoothly, it would mean that Pingzhou's cause would have a successor. This successor was like an insurance policy for them.
She, Qin Sheng and the next generation are the core of Pingzhou.
Even if she had an accident, if she had the next generation, they could ensure that the business would not fall apart in a short period of time. Her legacy would benefit her descendants and buy them a certain amount of time to consolidate power.
The most important thing is that Lu Songli is confident that even if she is pregnant, it will not prevent her from bleeding Dali and then harvesting Dali!
Liaodong County, Pingguo Wharf
At the request of General Qin Sheng and Military Advisor Guo Chong, the Cao Gang docked their ship at Pingguo Wharf.
Guo Chong got off the boat first to make the corresponding arrangements.
The military district that Qin Zhao was in charge of was located between Pingguo and Yao County. When Guo Chong returned, Qin Zhao also brought a team of people to help.
There was a newcomer among Qin Zhao's personal soldiers. After moving the silver, when he moved the iron ore, he was confused, "Hey, why is it just a pile of broken stones?"
The sailors of the Cao Gang laughed at him when they heard this, "You are ignorant! This is silver ore! Ore that can be refined into silver!" What a broken stone! This kind of broken stone is very valuable.
"Why didn't the King of Jin just give all the money directly?"
"It's a good thing they didn't ask you to dig."
The navy who had been to Fuso could all understand the shortage of manpower there. After all, King Jin only brought more than 6,000 people with him when he went to Fuso.
"That's right, why don't you let someone chew the rice and feed it to you?"
"Ugh, you're so disgusting!"
"Who made you so lazy? I'm disgusted by you. You don't learn your lesson."
Qin Sheng, Qin Zhao and Guo Chong were on the deck, watching the soldiers bickering while working.
"Mr. Guo, Third Brother, I'll be back soon. I'll leave the rest to you."
They wanted to extract the iron ore on the ship. Qin Sheng planned to let Mr. Guo be in charge of this matter, and ask his third brother to assist him, so that he would have nothing to do.
Qin Zhao rolled his eyes in his heart. This guy was rushing back to stick with his sixth brother's wife again.
He waved his hands, like shooing away a fly, and said, "Go back."
Of course Guo Chong had no objection.
So Qin Sheng went home happily.
When Qin Sheng returned home and learned he was going to be a father, he was stunned. After coming to his senses, he asked about the impact of pregnancy on Lu Songli. After he finally felt relieved, he was overjoyed.
After Qin Sheng and Guo Chong returned from Fuso, it was almost the end of the year.
As the end of the year approaches, Pingzhou's merchants are preparing to return to Pingzhou.
Recently, Lu Songli has received a lot of negative feedback.
"There are all kinds of imitation products in Dali. The quality is not as good as ours, but the price is cheaper than ours."
"This has made it very difficult for us to sell our goods."
"A lot of their products are just for show."
"The most disgusting thing is that whatever we sell in this area, they sell the same thing right next to us, and their prices are lower than ours. It's really infuriating."
In response to these feedbacks, Lu Songli had only one instruction: "Since you are not making money, then come back."
Having experienced the afterlife, Lv Songli naturally knew that for the sinking market, low prices were an absolute advantage. Given the situation, it would be better to give up and return home for the New Year. Anyway, her goal had been achieved.
In the memory of the people of Dali, the winter of the fourth year of Tianhe was a rare winter without war.
For the Xianbei, this year was a year of good weather and good harvests. They had a good harvest, and they sold a batch of cattle and sheep furs at high prices. The money they earned bought a lot of good things from the Dali, and they could have a comfortable winter.
Besides, they have been fighting for three years in a row and need to rest.
Pingzhou, on the other hand, is working overtime, quietly accomplishing great things. Everything is in preparation for the coming year.
For Dali, it would be even better if there were no war! It would be great if there were no war. Everyone would live in harmony and make money, and everyone could live in peace. How wonderful!
Even the ordinary donkey-raising families in Zhuozhou had a harder time. After all, they had used all the crops from their fields to feed their donkeys, leaving them with no harvest. The food they ate now was either borrowed or emergency rations saved for war and famine.
But they are still quite optimistic. Family members and relatives encourage each other and think that it doesn’t matter if it’s difficult now. When the donkeys grow up, they can sell them and make money. Then they will have everything.
In the blink of an eye, it was March of the fifth year of Tianhe. When all the donkey farmers in Zhuozhou bought silage from other places and most civilians had to borrow food to survive, Lu Songli knew that the time to harvest Zhuozhou was almost ripe.
"Notify Ding Jun and prepare for action."
