The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 430 I really want to get some money to spend

Academician Wei left after saying these words, causing the women in the room to panic.

It's not that they don't know what life is like in a Taoist temple, but now that the head of the family has spoken, they dare not disobey.

Wei Jun covered his face and looked at Wei Lin with both eyes: "I don't understand. We are both women, why do you want to help your father and force all women to lose their way of survival!"

Wei Jun was sent away. When she was about to reach the age of hairpin, she had no time to enjoy the blessings of the guests, so she was sent to Qingyue Nunnery in Mingxia Mountain in a small bullock cart.

"It is said that the nunnery owner once threw a nun into the lake and drowned because he accepted a piece of pie from a woodcutter when he went down the mountain to beg for alms."

When Cai Ling and Jin Li talked about this, they were full of regrets. She couldn't figure it out. They all said that tigers are poisonous and do not eat their seeds. How could Mr. Wei be so cruel and send his daughter to such a harsh place.

Jing Li was puzzled: "How could someone send their family members to such an inhumane place? They must strictly abide by the rules of women's ethics. How could they survive in the mountains?"

Caichun explained her doubts: "There are a few old-fashioned ladies in the city who have been sending sesame oil money to the mountains for many years. Therefore, the mountains are said to be poor. Those poor sisters-in-law, such as the nunnery owner and several elders, have to pay for their food and clothing. , but it’s no worse than a wealthy family!”

"Oh!" Jing Li understood, and she just said, in such poverty, the nunnery master can still live a very good life, it turns out that he doesn't hurt others but himself.

While the three of them were talking, Dezi hurriedly came over and said, "Your Majesty, the fourth round of interviews is over. There are 12 people left. The last round of interviews is conducted by your Majesty in person. I wonder when the arrangements will begin?"

Jing Li took a look at today's itinerary: "Let's arrange it the day after tomorrow. The interview location is still arranged at Hanmoxuan!"

Today she was going to check out the location of the inn at Sanchakou. Construction was about to begin there. The drawings were obtained from the two masters from Gaiwu Fort last year for reference.

The two masters had experience working with her, and many concepts could be understood at a glance. Moreover, the treatment given by the host was excellent, and the cooperation between the two parties was very pleasant.

Now that everything is ready, we are just waiting to choose an auspicious day to start construction.

Just after leaving the palace and before leaving the city, someone hurriedly came to report that the bandits from Diancuishan had descended from the mountain and caused harm to several surrounding villages. The county magistrate did not dare to neglect and hurriedly reported it.

"Diancuishan?" Jingli is not unfamiliar with this place at all. When Yang Shiyue, Yang Hao and others framed her, didn't they arrange it at Diancuishan?

"Didn't the prince wipe out all the bandits on the mountain? Where did the bandits come from now?"

Geng Qi immediately replied: "Last winter, Chen Yuzhang attacked us, but he didn't get any advantage. Instead, he fled to Longxi in panic."

"He had limited boats to cross the river at that time. Not only were the White Lotus believers who followed him abandoned, but the soldiers who were also unable to cross the river robbed these people, making it difficult for these people to make a living. They hid in Diancui Mountain and relied on robbery. I used to make a living by doing business!”

Jing Li was speechless when he heard this. What the hell, this was Chen Yuzhang's fault, but now he is here to bring trouble to the people of Chang'an. This is unbearable.

"So how effective are the gangsters on the mountain today?"

Geng Qi was disdainful: "It's just that they bullied the merchants by relying on the large number of people. Last year, there was chaos in the city. The prince wanted to put order in the city, so he couldn't free his hands to deal with them!"

Jingli thought for a moment: "What happened to the three thousand reserve troops I asked you to train?"

Geng Qi replied: "After training for more than two months, my combat effectiveness is not very good, but I can take him out to practice his courage and gain some knowledge!"

Jing Li also felt that this was feasible. He had been practicing like this for a long time. He couldn't do it without taking out real weapons and ammunition to practice. In this regard, the bandits in Cuishan were a bit too poor.

"What other bandit dens are there around here?" Geng Qi thought for a while and replied: "In the Black Tiger Mountain in Jinzhong, it is said that a group of bandits have been entrenched for many years and caused trouble in all directions. In the past, because that end was the fiefdom of the King of Wei , Your Majesty can’t interfere, so this matter has been delayed!”

Jing Li rubbed her little hands: "Then this bandit from Black Tiger Mountain must have accumulated a lot of wealth, right?"

Geng Qi was stunned, what did the princess mean?
He has heard that the prince gave the princess the key to the entire palace and the keys to the palace. Isn’t the combined treasure of these two places enough?
To put it bluntly, even in the small imperial court in central Sichuan, the emperor Wei Wang may not have a rich princess.

Jing Li secretly sighed in her heart, the development of a place all depends on money, not to mention that she has to support so many refugees now, so there is nothing she can do without spending money.

"Pull the new recruits out to suppress the bandits, and ask the responsible personnel to write down the route and combat plan for the suppression of the bandits in advance, and hand them over to Mr. Huan and others to review. Make sure there are no problems before going!"

She didn't believe it. She had surrounded several surrounding hills and still couldn't squeeze out money. Even if she didn't have money, at least she had to gain the combat experience of this reserve army.

If the bandits are all wiped out, can we go and kiss that "ex-husband"?I heard that his visiting son-in-law is living a good life!Jing Li touched her chin and thought secretly.

At the Sanchakou Station, two master craftsmen are using lime to draw the outline of the foundation.

Uncle Tiesheng brought Tianqiangzi over to greet Jingli: "Is our place a little too big?"

Uncle Tiesheng pointed to the open space opposite: "We can definitely build the restaurant there. If the large open space is not used, why build the house next to it?"

Jing Li smiled and said: "In the future, this area will definitely be the place where ancient silk is reconnected. If the trade routes are opened, people will definitely come here in an endless stream!"

"At that time, there was more than just an inn or restaurant here. Eating, drinking and having fun had always been the enjoyment of the rich. These businessmen in the past were not short of money, but what they needed was a place to relax!"

At that time, not only the fortresses in Shu and Bingzhou will pass through here, but also merchants traveling from the Western Regions will have to pass here, which shows the importance of this place.

Otherwise, the Wang family would not have made a lot of money by doing such harmful business in just one inn.

Uncle Tiesheng continued to ask: "Then why don't we build it all now, but wait until two years later?"

Jingli surveyed the terrain and replied: "The current situation is unclear, so building too many buildings is useless. Let's wait until there is peace in the future before adding or subtracting!"

Coming back from Sanchakou, Jingli passed by Mayi County. Since he was here, he might as well go and see Jing Dafu and others.

Not far after entering the city, I saw the little girl Xiangye, akimbo, lecturing: "Have you no ears or no brain? You're so hungry that you're about to fall down. You only have one mouthful to eat, and you have to give it to your mother and brother." Bring back!"

This little girl is only 11 years old this year. She is a smart, yet gentle and quiet little girl.

Jingli had never seen her so angry before, so she joked funnyly: "Hey, who made our little leaf angry?"

Xiangye angrily pointed at the little girl in front of her: "She's not her yet, she's just a few pancakes, and she won't listen to anything she says!"

The little girl opposite heard what Xiangye said, and became more and more embarrassed. She quietly raised her head and glanced up, and was caught by Jingli.

It turned out to be her!
