Chapter 112

The first three months of winter passed with the cooperation of everyone in the village, as well as those within the province who received help from Ji Jiu's style. But when entering the fourth month The problem of lack of food supplies for the villagers followed, as no one expected that the winter would not end. Ji Jiu, who had stored the food supplies, took them out and distributed them evenly to the people in her village. She only distributed enough food for them to eat within one month. If the winter continued on longer, she would distribute more. She had to prevent anyone from taking supplies outside the village. Therefore, stories like this must be handled.

 As for the people in the region, the royal court ordered the opening of granaries to distribute food supplies to the people in all the cities, especially in the border cities that had just captured the Hui Province. They received help from the merchants who had donated large amounts of food. Ji Jiu even offered them honorary positions in lieu of paying for supplies and preventing further demands. Prince Prince listened to her opinion and sent a message to his elder brother to help take care of the matter on his behalf.

 General Duan saw that his grandson and Ji Jiu were working together so well, he was very satisfied. He was no longer worried that in the future if the two of them were one family, there would be any conflicts. Since they both dedicated themselves to the people,

 The emperor received the message from his younger brother and did not delay. He sent his closest eunuch to read the royal edict to the border city. Now the horseshoe design and calculation method had been sent to the palace several months ago, making it possible for all fast horses to travel through the snow without difficulty. As well as orders to sweep. The snow in every city since the second month of winter made the roads nearly as easy to travel as during normal times. It was considered that the new nobles sent by the emperor to serve in the various cities did as well as he had hoped. hold

 The merchants in the border towns Enough to be honored by the Emperor of the Emperor They were even more delighted and gained more prestige than the other merchants who were stingy in refusing to donate supplies this time, even though they only received a title with no real power. But having such a rank makes them a group of people who have done quite a bit of good for this region. They also hope that in the future If the court wants more royal merchants Their names may very well be at the top of your consideration list.

 The story of the court's horseshoe making is Ji Jiu who taught the two masters and sent them to rent a furnace in the district after she recovered, until he was confident that they had enough skills. Ji Jiu also informed Prince Prince of this matter. He ordered all the technicians in the barracks to be punished and fired. He would find people who really wanted to work for the government instead. After this, Prince Prince also sent the two technicians to the palace for his elder brother instead, having them teach the methods to the royal technicians. He also asked his elder brother for the position of master technician for the two of them in order to facilitate their work. Otherwise, the old people in the court would have raised their objections and lost their jobs. Now the Zhao Domain could make horseshoes and other equipment for horses without any problems.

 And I don't know if it was the Zhao Domain's luck that a month later the winter that had lasted for more than four months had finally ended. The first sunshine made Ji Jiu smile a sweet smile that she didn't have to hold back from now on. But now in the house, plus now the female goat is starting to get pregnant. Soon Ji Jiu would have milk to drink and nourish her body. This made her quite surprised that two goats suddenly mated during the winter. But since it was good for her, she had Brother Zhao Gu take special care of them.

 Prince Prince, knowing that Ji Jiu wanted to drink milk, secretly sent word to the northern generals to bring him two pairs of milk cows a month ago. It is expected that he will arrive soon. He also wanted to see her become stronger. Since she was sick last time, he had always been careful with her. The longer he stayed with her, He didn't even want to be separated from her.

 No one dared to protest the matter of General Duan and his grandson staying at Ji Jiu's house, despite the fact that the village headman had whispered worriedly to Ji Jiu many times before. But Ji Jiu, the old soul, didn't see it as a big deal. So she could only comfort the elderly uncle who cared for her according to stories. Sometimes she even joked that soon she would marry him. Whether he stays here or not makes little difference. The village headman was speechless at Ji Jiu's thoughts. Aunt He could also see that Prince Jun was sincere with Ji Jiu. So she didn't protest like her husband. Instead, she told Ji Jiu to take good care of each other.

 Aunt He has wanted Ji Jiu to have someone to take good care of like this for a long time. Only, she still couldn't see that there was any man suitable for her young lady Ji Jiu. Seeing that Prince Jun was a man who had come to Ji Jiu with such sincerity, She therefore encouraged Ji Jiu to fall into the shaft with him. So that she and her husband would not have to worry about Ji Jiu again in the future. After all, she and her husband had seen Ji Jiu like a daughter for a long time. What was good? I want Ji Jiu to get some. After being in solitude for decades since I can remember.

 After one month of winter has passed. Ji Jiu asked Prince Jun and Grandpa when they would return to the border city. But she didn't get an answer. They said they wanted to stay here to rest for a few months. After all, they could work from here just like in the border towns. Ji Jiu didn't ask them again. She was too lazy to keep asking them. Just adding food supplies to a few dozen people. She was not difficult to care for. Even though she had spent quite a bit of money last winter, Ji Jiu still had tens of thousands left over.She had the elder brothers look at the restaurant that Aunt Qiao was preparing to open. As for her artifact shop, we'll have to wait. At this time, the various designs of Prince Jun had already been sent to the royal court. Because there was a reward from the governor sent to her at the house earlier. So she knew about this matter and did not think of selling those things again. Because her goal in wanting to sell is for the convenience of the villagers. Since the royal court had arranged for them Just this, she was very satisfied.
