My whole family was in exile, and I relied on my space to buy half of my country.

Chapter 373 Bribery
But compared to the grand ceremony, Jiang Tangtang still focused on infrastructure construction and agriculture.As for the comprehensive universal education she wants to implement, now is not the time.Just after the disaster, most people were still struggling to make ends meet.

When people cannot even afford food and clothing, it is unrealistic to talk to them about education, human rights, and equality and monogamy between men and women.

If the economy does not reach a certain level, even if the law stipulates that humans cannot be bought and sold, people will still sell their sons and daughters in order to survive.Only when people are wealthy to a certain level can they pursue higher-level things.

The plan for now is to keep the people fed and clothed.

Of course, in addition to vigorously developing agriculture, we must also build roads and canals to shorten the distance between various places and promote commerce.

In recent years, many roads have been built in Lingnan. However, although these roads have been widened and paved with stones, sand and other methods, such roads are not strong.

The manpower and material resources required to maintain the smoothness of the road are not small.

After the Great Zhou Dynasty was hit by war, natural disasters and epidemics, the population has dropped sharply.Jiang Tangtang does not want to waste manpower on road maintenance.

She thought of modern smooth and solid roads, and she was eager to tinker with the cement.

Moreover, after cement is tinkered with, it will not only be able to build roads, but will also be of great benefit to the water conservancy construction industry.

There are too many things she wants to do, and she has to take her time one by one.

The first thing to do now is to ensure the implementation of public ownership of land.

The common people are naturally happy with Jiang Tangtang's newly announced land distribution system, but this has affected the interests of the wealthy families.

These people are bound to make trouble.

Even if he doesn't dare to make trouble publicly, he still makes small moves in private.

Jiang Tangtang guessed well.

Many aristocratic families are discussing countermeasures in order to protect their own homes.After the previous attempts to send women to Lu Shiyan to prevent the implementation of the new policy failed, these aristocratic families came up with many new ideas.

In addition to creating obstacles for the newly appointed officials to prevent the implementation of the New Deal, some people also gave the newly appointed officials property and women in an attempt to bribe the local magistrates and make the officials obey the rules.

At this moment, Mr. Hu is giving gifts to the newly appointed county officials in southern Xinjiang.

The county magistrate sent to Lin'an County in southern Xinjiang this time was Qu Siyuan.

Qu Siyuan was unwilling to leave officialdom, hoping to make some achievements in Lin'an County and return to the center of power. He would not accept the gift from Mr. Hu.

But Ling Yanli, who came with her, didn't think so.

She believes that everything she encounters now is Jiang Tangtang's revenge.If Jiang Tangtang wanted to take revenge on her, how could he give her husband a good future?

Anyway, the future is hopeless, so it is better to get more money and become a wealthy and idle person.

Moreover, even if the emperor and the emperor were far away from each other, even if some land was allocated to the untouchables, Jiang Tangtang would not know about it.

So, when Mr. Hu approached her after being rejected by Qu Siyuan, she accepted the benefits from Mr. Hu without hesitation.

In order to impress Ling Yanli, Mr. Hu also spent a lot of money this time.Not only did he promise Ling Yanli, he would also honor her with [-]% of the profits of the Hu family's workshop in the future, and also gave her several sets of priceless jewelry and several large boxes of silk and satin.

Ling Yanli couldn't remember how long it had been since she bought new clothes.

At the beginning, when they saw the Xirong army approaching the capital, everyone was panicked and not in the mood to buy clothes.

But after a series of disasters, it became difficult to survive, and she could not afford to buy clothes.

It wasn't until she went to Lingnan at the beginning of this year that she slowly calmed down.At this time, due to the drought of the past two years, the textile industry was almost at a standstill.Most of the cloth clothes sold in the shop are old goods from the past.

She doesn't like the ones with poor styles, but the ones with good styles are so expensive that she can't bear to part with them.

Seeing several large boxes of good materials, she happily started gesturing with them.

When Qu Siyuan came back and looked at the room full of boxes and cages, his expression suddenly changed, "Are you crazy? Do you want to kill the Qu family?"

Ling Yanli put down the cloth and said calmly: "I'm not asking you to give the land to those untouchables without giving any. I'm just asking you to do some tricks when it's time to allocate the land to those untouchables. How could it happen? Harmed the Qu family?"

Qu Siyuan looked at the woman in front of him, feeling more and more strange as he looked at her, "Have you never thought about the consequences of doing this?"

"Do you know how far Linyuan County is from the capital and from Lingnan?" Ling Yanli said: "Can an imperial envoy come to this inhospitable place to inspect?"

Little did she know that at this moment Jiang Tangtang was planning to visit various places.

Traveling for emperors in past dynasties was a very difficult task.In addition to the emperor's safety issues, there is also the fact that transportation in ancient times was too backward, and it could only take ten days and a half.

But these problems did not exist for Yu Jiangtangtang.

She has the Tiger Protection Team, so she doesn't have to go to all the trouble of mobilizing troops.As for transportation, she has Gugu.It’s faster than modern airplanes, so getting anywhere is a trivial matter.

The only drawback was that the vehicle was too small to be accompanied by accompanying officials, so she had to do many things herself.

But this was not a problem. Jiang Tangtang decided to treat the inspection tours as a trip.

It's just that there are a lot of things in Lingnan now. She also has to worry about design competitions and oil workshops. Even with Gugu, she can't have time to inspect every place.

So Jiang Tangtang decided to pick two places for a walk for the time being.

When Lu Shiyan came back, he happened to see Jiang Tangtang holding a pen, looking at the map on the table and thinking deeply.

Lu Shiyan walked over, hugged her from behind and said, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm wondering where I want to go." In Jiang Tangtang's heart, there were too many important places and she wanted to go to them all.It was precisely because of this that I couldn't make up my mind for a while.

Because I was thinking about something, I answered a little absent-mindedly.

Her words were meaningless, and of course Lu Shiyan didn't understand what she meant. He leaned over and said, "Where do you want to go?"

Jiang Tangtang had already circled several places on the map. When he asked about it, he simply told him what he was thinking, "Please help me think about where to go?"

Lu Shiyan looked at the map and thought for a while and said: "Southern Xinjiang is too far away. Officials may arrive at this time. I think you might as well leave the far places behind. For the time being, go to the closer places."

Jiang Tangtang held her forehead, "Look, I'm so confused. I didn't think of this." She was really confused.

"You were busy with too many things, so you didn't think about it at the moment." Lu Shiyan raised his hand to rub her temples.

Jiang Tangtang closed her eyes and enjoyed his service, and couldn't help but examine herself in her mind.

To be honest, before traveling through time, she was just an ordinary person.

She never thought about becoming an empress.
