Chapter 194: Ask Mr. Liu for help

The old man was surprised, took it and opened it.

I saw the money in the purse that everyone had just drank soy milk and tofu nao, and there were also two pieces of silver jewelry, a silver bracelet and a silver lock.

Looking at the granddaughter and grandson in front of him, the old man smiled. This was a meeting gift from His Highness to his granddaughter and grandson.

The old man gave the silver bracelet to his granddaughter and put the silver lock around his neck.

After walking around the market, it was already afternoon. Qin Shuhuang and Liu Renren did not go back immediately, but went to the construction site not far from the market.

The construction site is very busy.

In the plan given by Qin Shuhuang, the new houses built by the victims were all two-story brick houses.

Although there is no yard, there is a second floor, and the living area has not been reduced. Some families can use the first floor as a front for business if necessary.

Even if you are not doing business, you can rent out the first floor and keep the second floor for your own use.

The suburbs of Beijing are close to Hongshan Mountain. The subordinate staff organized the victims to go into the mountains to cut the wood. In order to build brick houses, a brick kiln was opened nearby. The bricks were baked by the victims themselves who knew how to bake bricks.

After the houses are built, most of them are occupied by the victims themselves. Everyone still doesn’t know which house their family will be assigned to, so they pay special attention when building each house.

The people who took care of the food were paid to build their own houses, and none of the victims were lazy. The progress was faster than Qin Shuhuang and Liu Renren expected.

Liu Renren stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Your Highness, it seems that within our original construction period, not only can we build the residential area, but also build a street shop."

Build one more shop, and when the market is developed, move it directly to this street shop, and the government will collect rent, which is national funds.

After these few months of experience, I am afraid that before the town is built, carpentry and brick kilns will be able to form an industrial chain, and then many people will find a way out.

When the spring planting is over next year, the people affected by the disaster in the four counties in the suburbs of Beijing will not only not be poor, but will also be richer than the people around them who have not been affected by the disaster, becoming the envy of the people in the suburbs of Beijing.

It was already evening when we reached the completion site.

Seeing that everything in the four counties on the outskirts of Beijing was going smoothly, Qin Shuhuang and Liu Renren were ready to return home.

There are not many things left to do about the flood this time. We can just arrange it step by step. Qin Shuhuang and Liu Renren don't need to intervene. They can be left to the officials and subordinates below.

Qin Shuhuang and Liu Renren walked to the carriage.

After a moment, Qin Shuhuang suddenly said seriously to Liu Ren: "Master Liu, I have something to ask Master Liu to consider."

Seeing that Qin Shuhuang's abilities were not inferior to most of the officials in Dawu, Liu Renren also respected Qin Shuhuang even more. Seeing that she actually had something to say to him at this time, he immediately said: "Your Highness, if you have something to do, don't be polite to me. "

Liu Renren became an official when he was young. He came from a poor family and did not have many relatives. His two sons have become talents and he does not need to take care of them.

Because he does not have to be coerced by his family members, and has been in the officialdom for decades, he has seen too many unknown operations in the officialdom. He is still an official just to seek truth and sincerity for the people. He has already become a third-rank official. He no longer cares about his official position or what he does in court.

As long as he can do good for the people and the great military, he will never be stingy with his abilities.

He was one of the few officials in the court whom Qin Shuhuang admired.

In his previous life, Liu Renren was rescued by Gu Hongchao, but he also suffered from the root cause of the disease. He passed away less than a year later. Mrs. Liu took care of Liu Renren's funeral and died by taking poison a month later.

Since everything has changed in this life.

Qin Shuhuang hoped that Liu Renren could do something that he really wanted to do and benefit Dawu and its people.

"I would like to invite Mr. Liu to go to Beidi as an envoy!"

After Qin Shuhuang finished speaking, Liu Renren looked at Qin Shuhuang in surprise. He never expected that what Qin Shuhuang asked him to do would be such a thing.Liu Renren was loyal to the emperor and the country, but he had no experience as a minister of Honglu Temple and was not good at diplomatic relations.

Qin Shuhuang asked him to do this, so he was a little too casual.

Since he was already familiar with Qin Shuhuang and trusted him, Liu Renren answered his questions politely.

"Your Highness, I have no experience in diplomatic relations, and I don't have a smooth tongue. Your Highness may have to reconsider the suitable candidate for such an important matter."

There was an ancient tree in front of them, and it was shaded under the tree. Qin Shuhuang asked Ruihe to bring a small table and seats from the carriage, and made a pot of tea.

She invited Liu Renren to sit under the tree to discuss.

Qin Shuhuang personally poured tea for Liu Renren, and Xuan Cang and his personal guards were watching next to him. Even Ruihe Ruimiao was not around and went to the carriage to clean up.

"I am aware of Mr. Liu's concerns, but this trip is related to the family, country and society. It is the most important thing. I need a minister who is absolutely loyal to Dawu. As for diplomatic relations and other matters, I will arrange for suitable people to travel together. . I will not force this matter, Master Liu can consider it for a few days. If you are willing, just ask the old servant to send a message to my family."

Liu Renren couldn't help frowning after hearing these words, "Your Highness suspects that someone in the court is colluding with Beidi?"

Otherwise Qin Shuhuang would not emphasize the need for an absolutely loyal person.

Qin Shuhuang didn't hide it from Liu Renren. She smiled miserably, "I do suspect it, but I don't have any evidence yet. I'm just waiting for this opportunity. That's why I asked Master Liu."

In recent years, Beidi's power has become more and more powerful. If Dawu does not grow stronger, it won't be long before Beidi will look at it with eager eyes. If there is Beidi's power in Dawu at this time, it will be a painful blow to Dawu. Otherwise, Dawu will decline as a result. , became the fish and meat of Beidi.

Liu Renren frowned tightly, "Your Highness, let me think about this for a few days."

Qin Shuhuang nodded without forcing him.

The two drank a cup of tea under the tree and talked about the scenery of Dawu.

Liu Renren discovered that Qin Shuhuang didn't know anything about the five mountains in the south and the four states in the north.

Not only do they know, but they also understand the local customs.

He was curious, "Has Your Highness been to these places?"

Qin Shuhuang shook his head, "I read it all from the book."

In her previous life, when she was first imprisoned, she was locked in a secret room in Gu Hongchao's study.

The only thing he could do every day was to look at the county records that Gu Hongchao kept in the secret room. They were from all over the country.

She has read it for three years. She has read every county chronicle more than once and has memorized it long ago.

If she had the chance in this life, she would like to visit all the places she had read in the county annals and see the great rivers and mountains of Dawu in person.

Liu Renren stroked his beard and nodded. Even so, it also shows that Her Royal Highness the Princess is well-read and has an amazing memory. This is not easy. Among many men, few can do this.

After drinking tea, Qin Shuhuang and his party returned to Beijing.

Qin Shuhuang first sent Mr. Liu back to his mansion, and then returned to the eldest princess's mansion.

As soon as he returned to the eldest princess's mansion, Lu Zhou urgently asked for a meeting.

In the study room of the eldest princess's residence, Lu Zhou held the envelope in both hands and presented it to Qin Shuhuang, "Your Highness, the Emperor has sent you a message. He specially told me that the message is urgent and your Highness should open it in person."
