She only wants to do infrastructure construction

"To be honest, when I heard what the prince and the side princess said last night, the old slave didn't really feel it. Now that every household has cattle and sheep, the old slave can be regarded as a believer. Don't worry, the prince, your business The old slave took it."

Xiao Jiuxi was overjoyed: "Then thank Eunuch Qian for the villagers here first."

"My lord, you are welcome. If you want to thank you, please thank the saint. If he hadn't delegated the authority to let the old slave do business, the old slave could only be in a hurry."

Xiao Jiuxi laughed loudly: "Don't worry, my father loves me, I know it, and I will manage Taihe City well in the future to repay his old man."

Eunuch Qian was taken aback for a moment, and wanted to say that the prince's ambition could be even higher, but thinking of Xiao Jiuxi's usual style, he just doesn't like to make troubles, so he can't be scared all at once.

So Eunuch Qian just nodded.

The two of them entered the city directly from the northern suburbs. Eunuch Qian passed by the city in a hurry yesterday.

Looking at the scenes of the people living and working in peace and contentment, and recalling the tranquility of the animal husbandry village in the planting village, everything seems to be a paradise.

Eunuch Qian couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Scholars will treat each other with admiration for three days, and now this old slave has only been in Taihe City for a few months, and earth-shaking changes have taken place here, the prince has worked hard during this time."

Xiao Jiuxi smiled: "It's okay, it's all thanks to everyone."

"By the way, I heard that Ding Muyou, the prefect of Taihe Prefecture, may the new prefect have been sent here?"

Xiao Jiuxi shook his head: "It's strange to say that Cui Fuyin has been away for a while, and his documents have already been sent to the capital, but he hasn't received the Korean documents for a long time."

During these days, he kept an eye on the construction in the northern suburbs without touching the ground, and occasionally had to return to the Yamen as a puppet.

After all, Li Yewu is a woman. Even if she is a princess in the eyes of outsiders, there is no reason for a princess to intervene in government affairs. Therefore, even if the decree is issued by Li Yewu, Xiao Jiuxi still has to come back and pretend to be a marionette.

If the new governor takes office, he won't have to work so hard.

However, the new governor is also particular about it, it's better to be a good one, in case someone stands out, it's better to be vacant all the time.

Xiao Jiuxi didn't say that.

Eunuch Qian nodded: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will investigate for you when this old slave returns, and I will notify you as soon as there is any news."

"Then there will be a father-in-law."

The two of them strolled until noon before returning to the palace. Li Yewu had already had lunch prepared.

The meal at noon is completely different from last night. This time it is mostly light farm stir-fry.

"These are all vegetables grown by the villagers in our planting demonstration village. The taste is very sweet and fresh, and Eunuch Qian can't miss it."

Li Yewu said with a smile.

After more than 2 people from the planting village returned to the countryside, every household in their family grew vegetables and fruits. Whenever the fruits and vegetables were ready to eat, someone would pick them and send them to the palace.

During this period of time, Li Yewu never lacked fruits and vegetables.

Although she had declined many times, she couldn't hold back the enthusiasm of the working people. Every family said that there was too much food at home and they could not finish it. It was all thanks to Shang Wang's mansion that they could have today, so they had to share the happiness with the prince and concubine to feel at ease.

Li Yewu couldn't refuse, so he could only accept it.

Also because of this, the palace hardly has to worry about buying vegetables.

However, in Taihe Prefecture, this was nothing more than a gesture of gratitude by refugees, but in the eyes of Eunuch Qian, this has become another nature.

He has lived for so long and has never seen a prince who is so loved by the common people. The virtuous king is worthy of being a virtuous king. Such a person is the real true dragon emperor, right?
But I can think of this in my heart, but I can't say it.

Therefore, Eunuch Qian could only turn a thousand words into a laugh.

In this way, Eunuch Qian rested in Taihe City for a few days, and signed a cattle and sheep supply order with Xiao Jiuxi on the way, and then left.

As soon as Eunuch Qian left, Li Yewu and Xiao Jiuxi started to tidy up the pier.

The pier at this time was only a small pier. They had previously sealed off the private salt port in Meihuazhai. At this time, Li Yewu directly sent people to dismantle the pier there, and used the raw materials there to build the eastern pier.

It is much easier to build a pier with ready-made assets.

The common people did not expect that there are still many unknown factories in the northern suburbs that are under construction, and the small pier in the eastern suburbs will also be expanded in a blink of an eye.

However, regarding the expansion of the Eastern Suburb Wharf, the princess had told everyone before.

But what the princess said at the time was that the construction of the pier would be a matter of next year. Unexpectedly, it was put on the agenda after only three months.

Li Yewu could only smile helplessly when he heard everyone's doubts.

"The business is delivered to your door, you can't refuse it?"

With the wharf, cattle and sheep can be shipped out continuously, and not only cattle and sheep, but also their silk, special products, etc. can be shipped outside in the future.

Generally speaking, as long as the merchant ships run, they are not afraid of having no money.

However, when preparing for the construction of the pier, Xiao Jiuxi specifically mentioned the need to add watchtowers, sentry posts, and turrets.

Li Yewu paused while drawing the sketch, and looked at Xiao Jiuxi strangely.

Why did he think of strengthening coastal defense?
Is it...

Li Yewu's mind was spinning a thousand times, but Xiao Jiuxi quickly interrupted her wild thinking.

"Anyway, I was also enlightened in Taixue when I was three years old, among other things, I am familiar with wars.

And haven't you read Taihezhi?Because Taihe is on the coast and has a developed water system, they have been harassed by pirates from Eastern Zhao before. The reason why they are peaceful these years is because the Great Chu deterred their surroundings.

But the Haikou is a gang with lingering ghosts, including Dong Zhao behind the Haikou, who has always harbored evil intentions. Based on this point of view, our coastal defense in Taihe City is bound to be strengthened. "

Li Yewu didn't expect Xiao Jiuxi to have such a mind and strategy, so she couldn't help giving a thumbs up silently.

He is worthy of being a young God of War, but he is not useless, at least he can analyze the factors in the field well.

To be honest, Li Yewu is also thinking about strengthening patrols. After all, she has read the novel and knows the follow-up development.

Xiao Jiuxi's worries were not unfounded. In the end, Eastern Zhao Kingdom did set foot on the territory of Dachu, and it happened that they landed from Taihe Prefecture.

Now that Taihe Prefecture has returned to calm again, the gradually prosperous place will inevitably attract others' covetousness, and it is precisely because of this that she will form a militia group and an escort bureau. In addition to escorting her own merchant ships, why not guard Taihe Prefecture the meaning of.

However, the name of the militia and the bodyguard was not right, and if they were to be investigated, they would indeed be suspected of hoarding private soldiers, so Li Yewu took no further action for a long time.

At this time, Emperor Wuhou assigned a battalion of private soldiers to Xiao Jiuxi, which was just in time.

Now, the defense can be deployed in a logical manner.

Therefore, the couple coincided with each other on this point.
