Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Chapter 159
After leaving Zajia, Zhao Qingrui took Wang Xian to Zhuangzi again.

All the sweet potatoes planted in Zhuangzi were also harvested, and the warehouse was already full at the moment, and a few more were built, but it was still full.

All the fruit trees planted on Zhuangzi are now alive. The most gratifying thing is the strawberry planted, which is already blooming, and it should be ready to eat in a month or so.

"Your Highness likes this very much?" Seeing Zhao Qingrui staring at the land with bright eyes, Wang Xian asked curiously.

"Well, this is called strawberry, it's delicious, let's eat it when we can." Zhao Qingrui nodded.

"Your Highness says it's delicious, this strawberry is definitely not bad, I thank you Your Highness first." Wang Xian smiled lightly, making Zhao Qingrui say it was delicious, it must be good, and I was looking forward to it in my heart.

The chickens, ducks and geese raised in Zhuangzi are also growing well, and the lotus has bloomed a little. Everything is developing in a good direction.

After patrolling around, Zhao Qingrui was very satisfied, the granary was full, full of a sense of accomplishment.

Wang Xian followed Zhao Qingrui and observed the Zhuangzi. The fruit trees on the Zhuangzi were neatly planted on the hill, and a large number of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep were also raised.

There are also some pigs. After these pigs were castrated, they are now fat and white. It is not yet the end of the year, and these pigs can be killed.

By the time we got back to the palace, it was already evening.

During this period of time, more and more seafood were brought back from the seaside. Zhao Qingrui asked someone to select a few from the shops in Xianyang, specializing in selling seafood.

Especially kelp, which is very popular in Xianyang. Kelp is delicious when used in stewed soup, and it also has a salty taste. Many people like it.

Of course, the best-selling restaurant is still the restaurant. The dishes made of shrimp, crab and various sea fish are very delicious, and the sky is full of seats.

If those people hadn't known that this shop belonged to Zhao Qingrui, there would probably be people wanting to grab the cooking recipes.

Of course, there is no pepper, which is also a great pity for Zhao Qingrui.

Although there is mustard, she still prefers chili.

These things have created a large amount of income for Zhao Qingrui, but after the merchants found that these things such as kelp and sea fish were selling well, many of them went to the seaside.

She had anticipated these situations a long time ago, and the seaside has been completely controlled. As long as those merchants don't approach the saltworks casually to salvage sea fish and various sea vegetables, she doesn't care too much.

However, it is not without danger to go to sea to salvage things. Zhao Qingrui asked people to record the risks at sea and put them in the bookstore for sale.

Zhao Qingrui's side has made a lot of money, and those stimulated businessmen came to the seaside, and with the album provided by Zhao Qingrui, they gained a lot.

People's fear of the sea makes the sea rich in products. It's only the first time to come, but the harvest is extremely good.

Some people brought back things from the sea and made money, and more businessmen went to the sea.

Looking at the tax booklet sent up, Zhao Qingrui raised a smile on his face. He has received more taxes during this period, which is a good thing.

There are a lot of seafood on the market, and the price is not expensive. Daqin's economy is rapidly circulating.

"Your Highness, here are the memorials sent by Ju'an and Fenhe counties. It was His Highness who sent people to build workshops." Wang Xian sent over the memorials that had just been sent up.

Zhao Qingrui hastily put down the memorandum he had reviewed in his hand, and took it over.

The workshops for handmade soap and mosquito coils have been built, people have been recruited, and production has already begun. At that time, they can be shipped back to Xianyang for sale, or sold to various places in Daqin.

It is not difficult to make handmade soap and mosquito coils, and she has classified these two into the officialdom of Daqin.

Zhao Qingrui asked someone to bring information about the confiscated shops in Xianyang, and planned to nationalize these shops and not sell them.

These shops will be used to sell various state-owned things in the future, and it is time for these shops to take a break.

However, the red bricks fired for the construction of the Yanfang and Dibao mansions are not enough, and it is temporarily impossible to renovate those shops.

Zhao Qingrui felt even better after seeing all the matters in the memorial.

Fang Huan and the others are very efficient. Both places have recruited hundreds of people to work in the workshops. After a while, they will definitely be able to bring back the mosquito coils and handmade soap.

"That's really great, Wang Xian, you go to these shops and have them cleared up, and sell mosquito coils and handmade soap in a few days." Zhao Qingrui gave the brochure to Wang Xian, the shops that need to be used It has been marked by Zhao Qingrui.

"No." Wang Xian took a look, and found that the positions of these scores were very good. She remembered that there were merchants who wanted to buy these shops before, but the price they offered was not high, and no agreement was reached.

All these matters were handed over to Wang Xian, and Zhao Qingrui picked up the tax booklet and looked at it again. Seeing the increase of these figures, Zhao Qingrui couldn't help but feel joy in his heart.

These are all things she did during her tenure, which is an achievement.

During this period of time, there were not many things going on in the court, so those ministers were thinking about the five-year plan, and even discussing with each other, trying to write a memorial book that would be more eye-catching and win Zhao Qingrui's favor.

Now everyone can see that Zhao Qingrui's future is limitless, and there are many people who want to take refuge in her now, but Zhao Qingrui doesn't care about those people for the time being.

Compared with those officials, she is more optimistic about people from various schools of thought. These people have provided her with a lot of points.

A few days later, Zhao Qingrui received another letter from Jingshui Pavilion, saying that those people from the Mo family couldn't stay idle, and now they have already produced the blast furnace.

Although not as advanced as modern blast furnaces, it is enough for now.

This blast furnace, Zhao Qingrui has a headache again, and now there is no way to rebel, this matter should let the old man have a headache.

Thinking about it this way, Zhao Qingrui went directly to Shanglin Garden.

"If you don't want to do it, I will send someone to take it over. The army needs a lot of weapons, and it would be nice to have this stove." Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows.

Those people from the Mo family are quite capable, and they have to be rewarded properly in the future.

"Send someone over there." Zhao Qingrui nodded.

"By the way, how did you get people to find iron ore? If you want to build a large number of weapons, you can't do without ore. Now Daqin's existing iron ore reserves are not much." Zhao Qingrui asked more.

"I'm already looking for it, and I've found one, but I don't know what the reserves are." Speaking of this, Ying Zheng smiled even more. Having iron ore means having a lot of weapons.

"That's it, as long as you know what's in your heart." Zhao Qingrui nodded, and didn't care about it anymore. The people who do these things are in the army, and she doesn't want to get in touch with them.

"Well, the people of the Mo family have made great contributions this time. You go to the treasury and give them some rewards." Ying Zheng nodded.
