The prince is five and a half years old, and he is reclaiming land and becoming a group favorite.
Chapter 422 The reward has arrived!
Chapter 422 The reward has arrived!
Ever since he returned to Mobei, the string in Gu Yuzhi's mind has been tense.
Although Nanny Xu served her well every day with good food and drink, and her sleep time was guaranteed, His Highness still lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xie Changshi looked at his sunken face and felt very distressed: "Your Highness, why not take a two-day rest? When Magistrate Ke came to discuss the matter two days ago, didn't he say that the whole state was fully prepared?"
Quanzhou is the first hurdle for the Sang Dynasty, and Magistrate Ke must be more anxious than anyone else.
Gu Yuzhi thought about it and could only nod his head and said: "Okay, then I won't go now. I'll tell the emperor about the down vest and cotton-padded jacket first."
Although he feels that down jackets have a bit of a smell and are not as comfortable as silk, but if they can be promoted, many people in the capital will definitely be willing to buy down jackets.
When he thought about this, Gu Yuzhi couldn't help but smile secretly at Shopkeeper Wen.
Shopkeeper Wen said that if cotton was an important matter related to people's livelihood, it would definitely make a fortune if used to make money, but it would arouse the jealousy of the emperor's brother, so he wanted to make this matter public.
Not only does it let the emperor know that he will not hide anything from him, but it also lets those businessmen who want to make a fortune from these two things know that ordinary people can choose independently, and the prices will not be outrageous.
After handling various matters, Gu Yuzhi's focus was still on practicing martial arts and learning the art of war, and it was late October before he knew it.
The first snow in Mobei has not yet arrived, but the emperor's reward has arrived.
As for gold, silver, jewelry and other items, Gu Yuzhi was not in short supply now, so naturally he would not be as surprised as he was at the beginning. After asking Xie Changshi to count the items and store them in the warehouse, he happily entered the study room with the family letters from his mother-in-law and the royal sisters-in-law. He couldn't wait to looked up.
After Xie Changshi finished counting, he strode into the study and said with joy in his voice: "Your Highness."
Gu Yuzhi raised his head and glanced at him, with bright eyes and a big smile on his lips: "Xie Changshi, come and see!"
On the desk is an open portrait of the Queen holding a baby in her arms.
Xie Changshi only glanced at him and knelt down in a hurry: "Your Highness, is this the eldest prince?"
Gu Yuzhi nodded: "Yes! But this little guy is not only the eldest prince, but also the prince."
He shared the letter written by the Queen's sister-in-law to him: "The Queen's sister-in-law said that when the little guy was just born, he was made a prince by the emperor's brother, and then he said something about stopping the harem's decoction..."
Gu Yuzhi scratched his head, obviously a little confused as to what this sentence meant: "Why can the imperial brother stop the harem's decoction when he is granted the title of prince? What decoction is being stopped?"
Xie Changshi's expression changed and he thought to himself, Queen, have you forgotten that His Highness is only eight years old? Why are you telling him this?
He couldn't understand it, and Xie Changshi didn't explain it. Gu Yuzhi knew that it was difficult to explain. He would understand it when he grew up, and his attention instantly shifted to the portrait.
The little guy has a chubby face and big round eyes. He looks very similar to the emperor's wife, but he is too small. You can tell how small he is just from the portrait.
He pointed to the little guy's hat and shoes in the portrait and said: "Xie Changshi, look, this tiger head hat and tiger head shoes are both gifts from me!"
He raised his head with pride on his face: "The emperor's sister-in-law told me that the little guy likes the little tiger doll I gave him the most. He hugs it to sleep every night."
It was Teacher Shu's suggestion to give the little tiger doll, which happened to use last year's cotton. He drew the picture and asked the masters in the textile factory to follow his example. When Shopkeeper Wen saw the finished product, he wanted to open up the market and asked him to make more dolls to sell specifically to the children of wealthy families.
However, Gu Yuzhi refused. After all, cotton was in very short supply for him.
Gu Yuzhi rolled up the portrait and then looked at Xie Changshi: "Xie Changshi, do you have any good reasons for coming to me?"
Only then did Xie Changshi remember the purpose of coming in, and handed over one of the land deeds with a smile: "Your Highness, what is this?"
Gu Yuzhi took it and looked at it, his eyes filled with disbelief: "How could the emperor give me this?"
He scratched his head: "Teacher Shu, Shopkeeper Wen, look at this! Brother Huang actually gave me the land deed to two thousand acres of fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River!"
Shu Xiaohan and Wen Xiuzhu immediately came forward, and after confirming again and again, they both couldn't help laughing.
Especially Shu Xiaohan's voice was split: "What's this called? You can't find anything even if you break through iron shoes, and it takes no effort at all to get there!"
Shu Xiaohan was still very angry when she said that the young prince could not buy fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River. Who knew that in a twist of events, the young prince did not have to pay for it himself, and the emperor just sent it.
She giggled for a while: "The emperor has done something decent now."
Although the young prince said that he did nothing when he went to Jiangnan and was just a mascot, in Shu Xiaohan's view, the role of the young prince was too great!
Gu Yufan's fiefdom was in Jiangnan, and the late emperor was particularly favored before his death. He was allowed to control Jiangnan, the navy, private soldiers, and even most of the merchants in Jiangzhou were Gu Yufan's cronies.
When the young prince first entered Jiangzhou, he faced not only the difficulties that Princess Chu planned to kill him, but also many pursuits.
However, the young prince never complained about this. He appeared in front of the people of Jiangzhou every day to deal with the previous files. While calming the restless hearts of the people, he also told the people that he, the prince, and the prince Gu Yufan were not the same. the same.
That's why Shu Xiaohan felt that the emperor did a good job in sending the land deed to the young prince.
She smiled and rubbed Gu Yuzhi's head: "Keep it well when your imperial brother gives it to you. Let Prince Qi find a reliable person to look after you."
With Prince Qi here, who dares to covet the harvest of His Highness Mo’s fertile fields?
Shopkeeper Wen also had a smile on his face and gently shook his fan: "Fertile farmland is great. Having fertile farmland in Jiangnan means opening up the market in Jiangnan!"
Two thousand acres of fertile land is really not a lot, even if it is two harvests a year, it is obviously not cost-effective for Your Highness to collect these grains and send them to Mobei to sell them, so Shopkeeper Wen's opinion is to open Wen's Grain Store in Jiangnan.
Shopkeeper Wen smiled and said, "Your Highness, it's time for your Wen's Trading Company to leave Mobei."
He glanced at Shu Xiaohan without any trace, and he didn't know why, but he had a strong premonition in his heart.
When His Highness defeated the Beidi people, that's when he found the wheat seeds.
If they find it this year, Shu Xiaohan will guide His Highness to have a good harvest next year. This will be the last year they spend with His Highness.
Gu Yu didn't know how he knew the sourness in Shopkeeper Wen's heart. He put the land deed on the desk and said cheerfully: "If there are any other surprises, please tell me, Xie Changshi!"
