Song Jinxiu looked at her younger sister and said, "I may be busy for a while. Thank you for your hard work during this period. I heard that mother gave the sweater knitting factory to you. Can you handle it?"
Song Jinfang smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister, Sister Xiangcao is in charge of the sweater knitting factory. She may be busy now. Basically, I don't need to worry about it."
Song Jinxiu rubbed her head and asked with a smile: "Tell me, what birthday gift do you want?"
This kid is only six years old on the 16th day of the 1st lunar month, but now he has become old-fashioned after following her. Alas! It's her job as a sister.
Song Jinfang blinked and whispered, "I want a pet that's like a fur ball."
Hair ball? Junjun?
Junjun is a treasure-hunting mouse. In his words, "It exists in the sky but is hard to find on earth. There is only one of its kind."
"Well, anything similar is fine? Like a kitten? Or a puppy?"
"As long as it's as cute as a fur ball." Song Jinfang nodded.
"Okay." Song Jinxiu instructed Junjun: "This task is up to you. Find a suitable one and use your Persian cat brother."
Since the little fellow came to Ming Road, he has been strolling around the yard. He is also a greedy person. Whenever he sees someone with delicious food, he will bow and beg for food.
He even ran to his mother's home and saw her making clothes for the fetus in her belly. He pointed at the small clothes on his body and asked his mother for them. This caused my mother to make me feel uncomfortable all night.
Now that things are going well, the little girl must be thinking about you, right?
There was no time to slow down in poverty alleviation and people's livelihood protection. When Song Jinxiu saw the people Zhu Beichen brought, she stopped her horse and made arrangements.
Whenever there was a harvest season in a county, people were sent down to organize the poor to reclaim wasteland and cultivate the land.
Anyone who opens up wasteland can use food as wages, and women and children can participate.
She repeatedly stressed that poverty alleviation is the focus and land reclamation is only auxiliary, so everything should be based on the people's food and clothing.
An inspection team was also set up. All extremely poor households in the village would receive food subsidies, and those who had soldiers in their families would be given priority in subsidies.
As for the grain, some of it was bought by Song Jinxiu from grain merchants at a high price, and some of it was naturally obtained by Junjun.
Song Jinxiu set out behind more than a hundred people. Every time she arrived in a state, she would buy a courtyard as a place to store food.
The treasure-hunting Rat Junjun collected grain from grain merchants who maliciously hoarded grain everywhere, while Song Jinxiu distributed grain in various prefectures.
One was pulling and the other was releasing, and the two of them cooperated very well.
Zhu Beichen led the team to reclaim wasteland according to the grain distribution locations suggested by Song Jinxiu, using grain as wages while distributing relief grain to poor households.
In the state capital, there are also affordable grain stores, with a purchase limit of 10 kilograms per person to ensure that people from all walks of life have enough food to eat.
The common people have food to eat, food is unsalable, and food prices will naturally fall.
However, it is said that the treasure-hunting rat Junjun collected grain indiscriminately. After the warehouse of the black grain merchant was taken away, he left a string of evidence of the merchants' evil deeds on the wall, causing these black grain merchants to lose grain but dare not report to the police, and they also took the initiative to keep it secret and dare not let others know.
Within a few days, Song Jinxiu traveled to six states and eight prefectures in China, but did not go to Kunzhou.
Through Su Mo and the old patriarch's family letters, she learned that the people of Kunzhou are now short of food. Liu Nenggan, the prefect of Kunzhou, is a good official who can get things done.
Especially with the support of Songjia Village Oil Press, the people of Kunzhou can live and work in peace and contentment.
Because her mother's due date was in May, Song Jinxiu dared not stay here, and went back home after storing the food.
She said to Zhu Beichen, "Tell them to use the grain to open up wasteland. When the grain runs out, the work will be completed.
After the reclaimed land is sown, it can be handed over to the provincial government or county government for unified management.
Zhu Beichen was stunned: "Princess, do you want the reclaimed land? Are you going to give it all to the local government?"
Song Jinxiu nodded, then shook her head and said, "I'll give your majesty one million hectares of good land. These fields belong to your majesty. After three months, when the land is cultivated, the tax revenue can go into your majesty's private treasury."
Zhu Beichen frowned, "But Princess, you invested so much food, I'm afraid it will drain all your family assets, right? Do you want to keep half?"
Song Jinxiu shook her head: "No, don't say half, say one third, this number is too large. These fields can only belong to your majesty."
She blinked and said, "Even if I spend all my money, I can still make it back. With my ability, making money is a matter of minutes. Besides, will Your Majesty let me suffer a loss?"
Why! You can always say that she didn't spend much money on these foods, right? As for moving your legs and mouth, it is natural that we take from the people and use it for the people.
When there is an opportunity in the future, it would be better to distribute these fields to the people.
Zhu Beichen has been following Song Jinxiu for some time. Although this girl is young, she is full of surprises and miracles every day.
He was almost numb.
But today he was shocked again.
With so much food being asked to be brought out, and so many fields being asked for, even he had been envious and wanted to have a piece of the pie.
Zhu Beichen looked at the little girl's majestic and eccentric appearance, and bowed deeply to her in admiration, "Sir Song is righteous, and the court is blessed to have you."
This child is really loyal to His Majesty and has made great contributions to Cangwu. From now on, except for His Majesty, he, Zhu Beichen, will only follow the lead of Princess Kangle.
After explaining all the affairs, Song Jinxiu went back home, while Zhu Beichen went to the government offices of various prefectures to greet them personally. This was His Majesty's land, and the government offices would certainly do their best to serve him.
On the ninth day of the first lunar month, Prince Yin of Liangzhou submitted a memorial, saying that he had organized the people to fight the enemy and was injured. Because Liangzhou was poor and the climate was hot and humid, his wound had not healed well. He asked to return to the capital for treatment and hoped that Your Majesty would grant his approval.
Your Majesty is correct.
On the ninth day of the first lunar month, the spring examination that Zhang Han had been looking forward to was not affected by the war and started as scheduled.
The Spring Examination is divided into three sessions, each lasting three days, for a total of nine days.
Song Jinxiu happened to return to Beijing on this day. As the chief doctor of mathematics in the Imperial Academy, she was fortunate to see the true appearance of this ancient Gongyuan.
The walls of the Imperial Examination Hall were high, but the examination halls were very simple.
Each person's examination room is small. Here, this single room is five feet long, four feet wide, and eight feet high.
Candidates are searched before entering and each is given three candles. The door is immediately sealed after entering. Candidates answer questions inside and rest inside at night.
After watching the candidates enter the examination room and the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall closed, Song Jinxiu went home and fell asleep.
His Majesty granted her three days' leave.
The Royal Palace,
Liu Renxiu was delighted when he saw the latest memorials submitted by various prefectures.
Eunuch Hai was even more amazed, "This Princess Kangle has so many new ideas. In the past, we provided disaster relief and distributed grain from the national treasury to the people.
But Princess Kangle not only distributed food, but also exchanged it for large tracts of land.
Your Majesty, I have a good brain. I don't know how big this ten thousand hectares is. But think about it, when the flowers bloom and the spring comes, and the summer breeze blows, all you see is crops! very nice. ”
As he spoke, Eunuch Hai's eyes actually turned red.
His family was poor at first, so his parents sent him to the palace in exchange for three dou of grain.
If Princess Kangle was there, would he have had to enter the palace and live a normal life?
Liu Renxiu sighed: "Yes, it's great to see crops everywhere."
