Over the years, Cheng Gong has put a lot of effort into helping Ye Nankun have offspring, placing various storybooks and picture albums on his bed.
Ye Nankun usually disdains to look at these things, but now that he is about to go to the battlefield, he has no experience and hurriedly took out a book from under his pillow.
I just realized that these things are treasures!
Like a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger, Ye Nankun was so excited that he stayed up all night until dawn when he was exhausted and fell asleep.
Yu Jinshu woke up at the beginning, so she just went with the flow. During the break, she bought some Qi and Blood Pills and Repair Pills from the system mall and took them. At this time, she was not tired, but just sleepy, so she let Ye Nankun hug her and fell asleep.
I slept until the afternoon.
When Ye Nankun woke up, he saw Yu Jinshu sitting on the couch with her knees hugged, her face covered in tears.
As soon as Yu Jinshu woke up, he bought a bottle of eye drops from the system mall and put a lot of them in his eyes.
After making a little more noise, Ye Nankun really woke up and saw her crying pitifully.
Ye Nankun quickly hugged Yu Jinshu in his arms: "Jinshu, it was all my fault last night. I offended you when you were not sober enough."
Yu Jinshu pouted and cried, "Now that it has happened, I can't blame you entirely. If I have to blame anyone, I can only blame myself for losing control and being greedy for your kindness. But what should I do next? I'm worried that I'll be thrown into a pig cage."
Ye Nankun held her tightly in his arms, his chin resting on the top of her head: "Don't worry, I will take you from the Wang family today and let you be the queen."
Although there are many women in the harem, they are all concubines in name only.
Some young ladies came from official families, and the only title they were given was the title of concubine.
Yu Jinshu picked up a handkerchief and wiped the eye drops off her face, sniffed her nose, and then told her plan.
"City Lord, I cannot leave the Wang family for the time being."
Ye Nankun looked surprised: "Why?"
Yu Jinshu said, "The Wang family was once the richest in Han'an City, but they began to decline a few years ago. Coincidentally, I, a commoner, have just taken over the family. I have some plans in mind to revitalize the Wang family."
Ye Nankun said, "The Wang family is just a merchant family. If you marry me, the entire Han'an City will be yours."
Yu Jinshu shook her head: "City Lord, you are mistaken. This woman is not doing this for herself, but for the entire Han'an City."
Ye Nankun let go of Yu Jinshu and asked her to sit opposite him.
Yu Jinshu's face was solemn. "City Lord, the people of Han'an City have suffered from drought and floods for several consecutive years. During this period, if the Wang family could contribute money and manpower to solve the people's livelihood, wouldn't it make Han'an City better and better?"
Ye Nankun looked at the woman in front of him whose eyes were as red as a little white rabbit's with tears in her eyes. She looked so weak and frail, as if she could not withstand the wind and frost. However, he did not expect that she had such a deep love for her country and family in her heart.
Yu Jinshu continued, "Take the Imperial Kiln Factory, for example! In the past, it employed thousands of people. But three years ago, the contract between the Imperial Kiln Factory and the City Palace was not renewed, and with the Wang family's decline, only a little over a hundred people remained. Some of the others who were fired found work nearby, but most had to leave their wives and children and seek work further afield. Some even starved to death."
When Ye Nankun heard these words, he felt as if his heart was hit by a hammer and was deeply shocked.
"It was my decision not to renew the contract with the Imperial Kiln Factory, but I never imagined that this would put thousands of people at risk of dying! I'm committing a sin!"
Yu Jinshu looked at Ye Nankun's regretful expression, raised his hand and pinched his face, then smiled and said, "City Lord, you don't have to blame yourself. You are good at fighting and maintaining the stability of Han'an City. You have never been involved in business, so naturally you don't know anything about it."
Ye Nankun squeezed her hand, feeling a heavy burden in his heart. "Thank you for your comfort, but I know that it was me, the lord of this city, who acted inappropriately."
He stared at the beautiful face in front of him and suddenly laughed, "I never thought that I would find such a treasure in that string of candied haws that day. If you can help me govern Han'an City in the future, the people of Han'an City will surely live and work in peace and contentment."
Yu Jinshu smiled calmly, "I can't think about that much. I just want to bring the Wang family back to life. If the Wang family can return to its former glory and repay the entire Han'an City, I believe that the people of Han'an City will live and work in peace and contentment in no time."
Ye Nankun was a little excited: "I will order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to stop importing Western porcelain. All porcelain will be supplied by the Imperial Kiln Factory."
He hugged Yu Jinshu in his arms again and choked up, "Jinshu, I am so lucky to have met you in this life."
Meeting Yu Jinshu not only made him realize that he was a man, but also made him understand the shortcomings of his governance of Han'an City.
With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for!
The two of them went to bed to wash and change clothes.
Before leaving the bedroom, Ye Nankun gathered everyone in the bedroom together and ordered them not to spread what happened last night.
The waiters all thought that the city lord was going to have an affair with someone else's wife!
When Ye Nankun and Yu Jinshu arrived at the front hall, their faces were still flushed.
The hall was bustling with activity.
All the problems that had occurred with the goods supplied by the Wang family to the city palace in recent years were sorted out after everyone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs worked all night to investigate.
Ye Nankun asked the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to hand over all these issues to Yu Jinshu.
He then asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to draft a contract to renew the contract between the City Palace and the Imperial Kiln Factory. He personally signed the renewal contract with Yu Jinshu and increased the supply volume compared to previous years.
"Arrange a carriage to take Madam Wang home."
When Ye Nankun said this, he felt extremely reluctant.
He wished Yu Jinshu could stay by his side all the time.
But it doesn't matter. Even though Yu Jinshu is still the young lady of the Wang family, he will let Yu Jinshu come to the city palace to meet him from time to time.
Yu Jinshu took the palace carriage and went to the Imperial Kiln Factory first.
When Wang Xing, the head of the Imperial Kiln Factory, saw the contract that Yu Jinshu took out, he burst into tears of joy.
Yu Jinshu glanced at the lifeless Imperial Kiln Factory and said, "Uncle Xing, quickly call everyone back!"
She pointed to a wooden box and said, "Here are five thousand taels of silver. It's the down payment the palace paid in advance. Use this money to renovate the Imperial Kiln, build a few more kilns, and improve the workers' living quarters. From now on, there must be meat for lunch and dinner. When you've spent the money, come back to me at the mansion to withdraw it."
Wang Xing wiped his tears and said, "Okay, okay, Madam, please be considerate of us. We will devote all our energy to making the Imperial Kiln Factory a success."
Yu Jinshu said, "Once you have renovated this place and hired the workers back, I will draw some patterns for you."
Wang Xing said: "The patterns painted by the young lady are exquisite. With the young lady's painting skills, the Imperial Kiln Factory is not afraid of not being able to start."
Yu Jinshu smiled and said, "The Imperial Kiln Factory will surely be prosperous in the future."
The carriage in the city palace started, and Yu Jinshu returned to the Wang family mansion.
But at this moment, there was a huge quarrel in the Wang family mansion, and Qin was so angry that she vomited blood.
