The two million tents that were taken out last time, a total of ten million tents, were all transported out of the villa by Xie Ruiyuan's men.
Li Mengyue was not worried that these tents would be embezzled because she believed that the people trained by Xie Ruiyuan would definitely carry out the orders.
Even if an official wanted to steal the tent or use it for other purposes, he would be found out by Xie Ruiyuan's people, and then it would not be as simple as losing his official hat.
You should know that the construction of water conservancy projects in Qingshan Prefecture had been going smoothly, and no one came out to cause any trouble. In addition to building reservoirs and digging rivers, which were beneficial to refugees and local people, they were also harmless to local officials.
After all, building irrigation projects not only helps to resettle refugees, but is also a political achievement for local officials.
In the past, even if someone wanted to do this, it would not be possible to actually carry it out. But with Xie Ruiyuan in charge, it was different. With Xie Ruiyuan's status and position, it was not difficult for him to mobilize hundreds of thousands of refugees to build water conservancy projects.
What's more, there is still an imperial edict there, so even if someone objects, it won't be a big deal.
Besides, no one believed that Xie Ruiyuan could really settle hundreds of thousands of refugees based on the faction's allocation of only 600,000 kilograms of grain. The people from the First and Second Princes' factions wanted to make fun of Xie Ruiyuan, but in the end they themselves became the laughing stock.
Originally, after Xie Ruiyuan settled the refugees in the two prefectures, he should have returned to the capital. However, the weather changed too quickly, it snowed heavily, and the snow on the ground was too thick, making it difficult to travel.
Moreover, the staff were reluctant to leave so early, and the university just happened to give him a reason to continue.
Originally, he was thinking about spending some time with Li Mengyue while the heavy snow stopped and the carriage could be on the road.
The key point is that even if there was no heavy snow, he didn't want to go back to Beijing and wanted to wait until his child was born.
Who would have thought that there are unexpected things everywhere in the world? Since the secret report from the northern border, not only can he not stay in Qingshan Mansion and have to leave for the northern border as soon as possible, but even Li Mengyue has to follow him.
However, Li Mengyue's going to the northern border with him made him feel relieved. He no longer had to worry about Li Mengyue encountering some danger. He also couldn't accompany Li Mengyue during childbirth and miss the birth of the child.
Three days later, Xie Ruiyuan finally settled the refugees who had suffered from the snowstorm and made other arrangements. Even if he did not go to Qingshan Mansion, nothing serious would go wrong.
Li Mengyue did not take Qingning or Canku with her, but asked them to guard the house and take care of their two younger brothers. Li An let them stay at the honeycomb coal factory.
That is to say, the snow fell too heavily, and the demand for honeycomb coal increased a lot, requiring non-stop production day and night, so Li An's honeycomb coal factory was keeping an eye on it.
Li An agreed readily. He also knew that the honeycomb coal factory was a very profitable business in his daughter's hands. He himself did not have much ability and could not give his daughter a better life. Now that his daughter was capable, he wanted to help her protect the industry and not let anyone covet her honeycomb coal factory.
As for his two younger brothers Mingyu and Minghao, Li Mengyue told them that his cooperation with the Qian family required him to personally check the accounts and that he would have to stay in the county town for a few days.
Although Mingyu and Minghao felt that their pregnant sister should not leave home after such a heavy snowfall, they both always listened to their sister and would not object to anything she said.
Even when Li Mengyue said it was the county town, Mingyu and Minghao did not have any doubts. Instead, their elder sister assured them that they would study hard and not act naughty after returning home.
Li Mengyue is quite relieved about her two younger brothers. Although Minghao is a little more naughty, he knows what to do and what not to do, and he is quite capable in doing things.
Just like Minghao didn't like studying and wanted to be a general, she told Minghao that if he wanted to be a general, he had to be literate and familiar with military books. Then she started studying in the academy and was not lazy at all. Although her grades were not among the best, they could be considered average.
