"This place is close to the Wei River. I have asked people to dig many wells. If the technical department hadn't allowed it, I would have built a large water plant." Zhao Qingrui sighed lightly. There were technical limitations. Even if she wanted the people of Daqin to develop faster, it was impossible.
Now every building has an ancient well, making drinking water a little more convenient.
"Water plant? What is that?" Ying Zheng asked curiously.
"It's about delivering water to thousands of households through pipes..." Zhao Qingrui said simply.
"Can it be like this?" Ying Zheng found it magical.
"Of course. When the conditions are met in the future, I will have someone install running water, and then charge water fees from every household." Zhao Qingrui thought about it.
"I still have to pay water bills?" Ying Zheng widened his eyes, thinking that his daughter's idea was incredible.
"Of course. The water has been delivered to their rooms. What's wrong with paying some water fees? We still have to charge them according to how much water they use." Zhao Qingrui curled her lips.
"Father, I am generating revenue for the national treasury."
"Yes, yes, you are worthy of being my daughter." Ying Zheng understood instantly and thought that his daughter's method was really good.
Zhao Gao listened silently behind the father and daughter. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was indeed very thoughtful.
After looking at the houses here, the father and daughter went to take a look at other buildings. The styles of these houses were similar, and some places were still undergoing finishing work.
After looking at the house, the father and daughter also went to see the various shops. The shops were also very spacious. Zhao Qingrui also divided the shops into categories, making the market here look more tidy.
After looking around at the houses, Ying Zheng felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
"I suddenly feel a little regretful. A building like this is not bad." Ying Zheng said seriously.
"It's okay. I will build a super beautiful manor for my father in the future." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
In Xianyang City, after cement and red bricks became popular, many houses in the city were demolished and rebuilt, but these houses were still built in the original style.
Buildings like the Dibao Office are almost impossible to find. Perhaps such buildings do not conform to the aesthetic tastes of those people.
"Then I'll wait." Ying Zheng was in a good mood. Which child was as filial as his? No one in the world could compare to his daughter.
Zhao Qingrui didn't know what his father was thinking. Sitting in the carriage on the way back, Zhao Qingrui was thinking about how to manage the affairs of those nobles.
There are a few houses over there that are built in the style of villas, which can accommodate some nobles with many slaves, but there are not many of them.
Scarcity makes things valuable. I'm afraid that distributing those houses will cause a lot of trouble.
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. Let Li Si and the others handle these things. Once a decision is made, I will make the final decision myself.
When they returned to the palace, it was already late. The father and daughter had a simple meal and went to rest.
The weather is getting cooler, and the people in the fields have big smiles on their faces. This year is another good harvest. With so much grain, even if the weather is bad in the next two years, nothing will happen.
Zhao Qingrui ate strawberries and leisurely reviewed memorials.
All counties and prefectures have reported the harvest situation in various places. Looking at these data, not only the people of Qian feel hopeful, but even she is full of motivation.
Next, taxes from all over the country should be collected. Granaries are already under construction, and there is still a lot of grain left in the national treasury from last year.
"Go and invite our father." Looking at Wang Xian beside him, Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
After a while, Ying Zheng came over, with a little kid beside him. This was Zhao Qingrui's younger brother, whose name seemed to be Lin. He was four years old this year.
Zhao Qingrui's eyes flickered slightly. Her father usually didn't take care of children, but today he actually brought a little kid here.
"Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Little Radish Head saluted respectfully.
"No need to be so polite, Wang Xian. Go get some snacks." Zhao Qingrui looked at Wang Xian and said.
"Sit down, don't be so reserved." Looking at the extremely nervous little guy, Zhao Qingrui smiled faintly. The little guy looked quite cute.
"Thank you, sister." Lin said obediently.
"What do you want from me?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui and asked.
"Your Majesty, there is a lot of grain left in the national treasury from last year. If it continues to be kept there, it may go bad. I would like to discuss with you what to do with this grain." Zhao Qingrui became serious. If it were not for the memorial from Su Ling, she would not have noticed this problem.
"What I mean is, send it to the prisoners to eat, and the soldiers should eat the newly delivered food." Ying Zheng said after a moment of hesitation. This is indeed a problem. Too much food is also a trouble, a happy trouble.
"It's feasible." Zhao Qingrui said immediately. She almost forgot about the prisoners. She had previously thought of sending these foods to Lingnan. There were many soldiers stationed in Lingnan, so it would be easy to eat up all the food.
I almost forgot about these prisoners. All the prisoners in the Qin Dynasty combined are almost as many as the current regular army.
"Then I will review it according to my father's wishes." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, have the military supplies sent from Shangjun been finalized?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui. He only wanted to take care of the war, and he planned to leave these logistical matters to his daughter.
"It's decided. Here it is. Please take a look, Father." Zhao Qingrui handed a booklet to his father.
Master Lin on the side was eating snacks obediently, without making a sound to disturb his father and sister.
Although I couldn't understand what they were saying, they seemed very impressive.
