Chapter 381 Princess

Liu Zhong and others did not expect that the dozens of villages in Jiangdong that they had heard were impregnable were actually because of the woman in front of them. read

"We have heard before that Jiangdong Qishi Village is invulnerable to bandits and bandits for a long time and is as solid as a rock. We heard that the villages have gates and deep ditches, and they are as well defended as an iron barrel and have excellent swords and arrows. , everyone knows martial arts.”

"My sister-in-law led them to make it."

Liu Zhong and others looked at her with admiration.

As expected of a member of the military, he made the defense of the village so strong.

"I heard that the dozens of villages in Jiangdong are extremely rich. Now Renzhou is as prosperous as Chang'an City."

Su Qingyao smiled: "It's not that exaggerated. Because Renzhou was the first to be boosted by me and Mr. Pei, its economy is more prosperous than other places in Yue."

"But it is not the same as Chang'an City. This is an exaggeration. But in Renzhou City, the fields are now harvested twice a year, and a lot of grain can be harvested in a year. Everyone can have enough to eat. There is money in their pockets. , naturally the entire economy will be stimulated.”

Is she so famous?

Has the news reached Zhendong?

Liu Zhong looked at her with stern eyes: "We had heard about the Seventy Village in Jiangdong before, so we entered the mountain, thinking that we might be able to survive in the mountain with us. Later, we didn't find anything valuable, but Let us discover the silver mines in the mountains."

Speaking of silver mines, Su Qingyu thought about it.

Said: "I'm afraid the mineral deposit is not big, right?"

"Ah, Madam, you know all this? When did Madam go to see it?"

Su Qingyu smiled and shook her head: "I haven't seen it."

But she knew that under such precise survey conditions in later generations, no large-scale mineral deposits were found on the rooftop. There were some metal mines, but they were just small and medium-sized mines.

"How much training have you done?"

Gu Changqing glanced at Lu Bocheng and said, "About three hundred thousand taels."

Lu Bocheng didn't understand the concept of refining three hundred thousand taels. Look at Su Qingyu. He had better not speak, otherwise his wife would say that he was a scumbag again.

His wife is still awesome. He just listened quietly.

He looked at Su Qingyu with a doting look on his face.

Su Qingyu didn't know why he was like this, so she glared at him.

Looking at Xu Changqing: "Have you found someone to survey the area?"

"We've all surveyed, and only there is silver stone there. And after digging for nearly two months, it seems to be almost exhausted."

Su Qingyu nodded: "If you can't dig it out, don't bother digging anymore. This mountain produces a lot, and the tea and medicinal materials on the mountain can be sold for a lot of money in a year."

"Can it be sold for a lot of money?" Liu Zhong looked at her excitedly.

Su Qingyu nodded: "Quite a few."

Liu Zhong was a little pity, he would not have gone down the mountain to catch people if he had known about it.

However, a drink and a peck are all destiny. Otherwise, there is no chance of meeting General Lu.

After talking about things in the mountains, he also talked about the family members who were accompanying the army.

"They want to follow me to the North. If these family members are not well settled, they may not be at ease." Lu Bocheng said to Su Qingyu.

Su Qingyu looked at Gu Changqing: "What do you want?"

"It's impossible for them to follow us to the north. They are used to living in the south, and I'm afraid they won't be able to adapt to the north. Moreover, we are fighting outside and can't care about them. But we don't feel comfortable leaving them here."

The main purpose is to let the old people know that they are hiding here, for fear that it will be detrimental to them.

Su Qingyu thought for a while: "Then let them stay in Yue. Now you are not short of money. You can let them buy houses in the city and settle down in Raozhou or Renzhou, where the Yue Palace is located."

Liu Zhong and others looked at each other. They did have this idea before.

But now I heard that dozens of villages in Jiangdong are in the hands of the general's wife. There is no shortage of food in the mountains, and it may be safer than outside. Only when their families at the rear are safe can they rush forward without hesitation.

Gu Changqing and others looked at each other and said, "Can we let them follow Madam into the mountain?"

The general’s wife is also in the mountains. The general will not let his wife and children have any mishaps/

If hundreds of family members are placed in the mountains, even if something happens to them on the battlefield in the future, the wife will definitely take care of them. In the future, they will have someone to rely on and support when they grow old, and they will feel relieved.

"You want them to follow me into the mountains?" Su Qingnao was a little surprised.

"If it's not too much trouble."

"It's not troublesome. But...will they get used to it?"

"We have been living in the mountains for several months. We were not used to it at first, but now we are used to it. And most of us are poor people. Except for a few families who originally had servants, the rest are Ordinary people make a living by farming at home.”

"How many dependents are there?"

"There are five hundred and sixty-nine adults and children."

Su Qingyu and Lu Bocheng looked at each other, were silent, and then nodded: "Okay. Then come back to Renzhou with me."

Seeing that Su Qingyu and Lu Bocheng agreed, Gu Changqing, Liu Zhong and others heaved a long sigh of relief.

The next step is to pack up the things in the mountain. Hundreds of people have to leave, which is no small task.

Lu Bocheng couldn't wait any longer.

He didn't know what happened to his 10,000 troops in the north, and he felt a little anxious.

Although he was very reluctant to leave her and had only been with his wife for a few days, he couldn't let go of the north.

And these days, he has thought about something and wants to go to the north to cook. In the future, I can be with my wife and son forever.

Just when Lu Bocheng was about to prepare and leave with more than a thousand people, Ma Mingwen sent someone.

Give Lu Bocheng and Su Qing'an a letter.

The letter explained that the people in the mountains could stay or go as they pleased. Yuedi would not interfere with their actions.

As for the silver mine in the mountains, Ma Mingwen did not want it, and let Su Qing'an handle it with full authority and give it to Lu Bocheng as military expenses.

More than 10,000 people can't work for Lu Bocheng for nothing. They also have families to support, and they have to pay them. Yuedi will not confiscate the silver mine.

He also ordered officials in Tiantai and Yongjia to fully cooperate with Su Qing'an to revitalize the economies of the two places. Su Qing'an's orders are his orders.

"How did I become the princess of Yue?" Su Qing'an almost thought she had seen it wrong.

Or a princess named after the country.

Godfather... scared her.

"The King of Yue said that the princess is his daughter, so she should be called the princess. And all the feudal states wrote to the Liang Dynasty to request or to confer titles on their children. The King of Yue has only one princess, and he had already requested the title of the princess, but the imperial edict had not come down yet. The King of Yue did not say anything."

The messenger said to Lu Bocheng again: "The King of Yue said that Yue has only you as the princess now and in the future. Please respect yourself, General Lu. Don't let down the princess of my country."

Su Qing'an's heart was in turmoil.

Godfather must have heard that the King of Jin wanted to marry his daughter to Lu Bocheng, so he was worried.

He was afraid that Lu Bocheng would be threatened by his status, so he gave her an identity.

Lu Bocheng was grateful in his heart, and it would be more convenient for him to deal with things.

He clasped his fists to the messenger: "Bocheng will remember the words of the King of Yue. He will not wrong the princess."

"Greetings to the Princess of Yue."

He knelt on the ground all of a sudden. Su Qing'an was a little at a loss. He didn't react.

After a long time: "Everyone get up."

To Siyuan and his group: "Just do it the same as before." Don't yell, she's not used to it.

"Yes."

Lü Bocheng and Su Qingmei each wrote a letter back to Ma Mingwen and asked the messenger to take it away.

And the matter in the mountain was also settled.
