Chapter 174
After scattering the wedding cakes and money, Zhou Ming prepared a box of copper coins in advance and scattered them among the crowd. Everyone was receiving the money seriously, and the scene was filled with laughter.

Wu Yushuang and Fang Yao also followed the happy money. They welcomed the new life together with the villagers, and the smiles on their faces never stopped.

The next step is to draw lots. Zhou Ming puts the prepared bamboo sticks into a wooden box. A representative from each family will draw lots, and they will live wherever they are drawn.

Many people were gearing up, waiting for this moment. Zhou Ming moved in the direction of the table, and people passing by took the initiative to put their hands into the box to draw lots.

Everyone has finished drawing lots, and they are discussing with each other the addresses of their homes.

"Okay, everyone can eat in peace!" Zhou Ming said, and then returned to his seat.

Everyone started to use their chopsticks. During this period, some chatted with each other, toasted, and many people even shed tears, sighing about life.

The noon banquet lasted for nearly an hour. After the banquet, everyone went to find a house according to the number plate they had drawn, packed their things, and moved into their new home.

The tents outside were all dismantled, and each household walked into the new house with their cotton-padded clothes, quilts and daily necessities.

Even though they participated in the construction of these houses, I couldn't help but admire them when I entered the new house. This house is really great!

The upper and lower floors are designed so that the family has a large population and can live in it. There are warm walls and bathrooms. Once the stove is turned on, it can be used for cooking and the house is very warm.

Mr. Fang and Mr. Wu are also very satisfied with the house. They feel that living here is more comfortable than when they lived in the capital. There is no need to put a charcoal pot in the house, the fire wall is very warm, and there is a kang. Lying on the kang, they feel comfortable in their waist and legs. Quite a few.

With excitement, everyone moved into the new house.

The next morning, everyone continued to take action. Those who went up the mountain and those who opened shops went to the county town. Everyone was full of energy.

Princess An Ning's health has also improved. She arranged for people to send messages to all the ladies in the city, inviting them to attend a banquet held at Prince Jin's Mansion tomorrow.

Today she came to Haiping County with her maids and guards. She wanted to see April Spring Breeze's ready-made clothes shop and rouge shop in person.

The carriage stopped in front of the tailor shop, Xiaoyu got out of the carriage first, and then helped the princess off the carriage.

Princess Anning looked at the two shops next to each other and walked into the tailor shop first.

Wu Yushuang was introducing clothes to the ladies in the shop. When she looked up, she saw Princess An Ning.

"Princess Anning!" Wu Yushuang exclaimed.

Xia Xiuqing immediately looked towards her, "Do you know this princess?" How could she be recognized at a glance?

The ladies at the scene immediately fell silent, and there was silence in the shop.

Wu Yushuang stepped forward and saluted Xia Xiuqing, "See you, princess."

The ladies from the families behind immediately followed suit and saluted, "See you, Princess!"

"Excuse me!" Xia Xiuqing said, and then looked at Wu Yushuang. She always felt that this person looked familiar.

"You, raise your head." Xia Xiuqing pointed at Wu Yushuang and said.

Knowing that it was unavoidable, Wu Yushuang raised her head and spoke first: "Princess An Ning, long time no see."

After seeing the appearance of the person in front of her clearly, Princess An Ning was surprised, "Are you the daughter of Wu Shangshu's family?"

Wu Yushuang nodded, "Exactly, I didn't expect Princess Anning to remember Minnv."

"Minister girl? Why are you here?" Xia Xiuqing was puzzled. Why did the daughter of the Minister of Industry call herself a Minnv and still appear in this remote county?

"Back to the princess, my father has resigned, and now our family is in Haiping County." Wu Yushuang explained.

"Resign? Lord Wu actually resigned?" As a princess, Xia Xiuqing had never cared about government affairs, and she didn't know this information.

"Did you open this shop?" Xia Xiuqing asked. The daughter of the minister of the Ministry of Industry is actually opening a ready-made clothing shop!
Wu Yushuang shook her head, "I just help manage this shop. The shop is opened by the Fourth Young Master, the one who gave you the clothes a few days ago."

Xia Xiuqing understood. This Miss Wu originally knew Mr. Zhou and was here to help manage the shop. She must have a good relationship.

"The princess is here to see the clothes, so you can introduce them to me." Xia Xiuqing said.

"Yes, Princess, please come inside." Wu Yushuang responded and led Princess An Ning inside.

After some introductions, Princess Anning felt that every piece of clothing was beautiful, and wished to buy all the clothes in the store.

Since some clothes can only be ordered by special VIPs, Xia Xiuqing directly paid 1000 taels of silver, got the special VIP bracelets, and ordered more than a dozen clothes.

Satisfied, she walked out of the tailor shop and went to the rouge shop next door.

In a short while, Princess Anning spent nearly 5000 taels of silver, which made people in the shop lament her wealth.

Zhou Yue was in the village looking at the final project of the college. With the gate installed, the college was officially completed.

"Yueyue, the academy is finished!" Zhou Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and it was finally finished.

"Yes, from today on, everyone can study in the academy." Zhou Yue was very satisfied. With the academy, the children in the village can continue to study.

"Yueyue, the college has been built. Is there anything else that needs to be built?" Zhou Ming asked. If not, these wolf army people can go back to the mountain.

Zhou Yue thought for a while, looked around, and took out the map from her arms to study it carefully.

"Third brother, what do you think we should encircle this wasteland?" Zhou Yue pointed at the map and said.

"Wrapped up?"

Zhou Ming looked at the map and saw that Datong Village is located in a remote location. To the south is the Yasuo Mountains and to the north is a wasteland. The nearest village is more than ten miles away from here, and about fifteen miles to the east is the Cangming Sea.

"Yueyue, do you want to surround this wasteland?" Zhou Ming asked.

Zhou Yue nodded, "That's right, I plan to fence up this wasteland. After the spring begins, I will open up all the wasteland and plant sweet potatoes and potatoes."

These are rare things that cannot be discovered by others. They are safer after being fenced. Moreover, after being fenced, the village can prevent outsiders from entering and exiting, which is relatively convenient.

"Okay, then surround them all! I'll ask a group of people to go down the mountain and try to complete it before the end of the year!" Zhou Ming heard the little sister's plan and thought it was feasible. After all, the yield of sweet potatoes is extremely high and cannot be stolen by outsiders.

Zhou Yue nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, third brother!"

Zhou Ming laughed and said, "You and your third brother are still seeing each other!"

Zhou Yue also laughed, "I don't see you, it won't be too late when you marry a wife! Haha~"

"Hey! Are you still teasing me? The eldest brother and the second brother haven't married a wife yet, I'm still early!" Zhou Ming gave Zhou Yue a supercilious look.

"Yes, my eldest brother is 17 years old after the Chinese New Year. It's time to think about getting a wife."
