In Lizhou, Zhulan wrote a reply, but she was not in a hurry to find a quick horse to send it back, and prepared some food and food to send it back together.

In the past month, my family has been buying a lot of things. Lizhou City is close to the border. Although there have just been a big battle, there are a lot of foreign merchants on the border, but there are also some. Cough, Lizhou City is too poor and no foreign merchants are willing to come.

Zhulan bought a lot of dried fruits, dates, etc. in Sichuan Province, and she bought a lot of them. The fur this month was not good, so she didn't sell it.

Zhulan asked Liu Ya to call Mr. Ding and handed the letter to Mr. Ding, "You can pack up some dried fruits, dates and other foods to the wardrobe to send them away."

Butler Ding borrowed a letter, "Does the mistress have anything else to explain?"

Zhulan took the written list, and his heart was so painful, a large sum of money, "It's true, you bring two servants, Winter Solstice and Xiaohan to Sichuan to buy tea sets, dishes and some flowers. This is the list, you buy it according to the written one."

Butler Ding took it and took a look and bought a lot of things, "I sent the letter and took the Winter Solstice and Xiaohan to leave."

"Um."

Butler Ding left the yard with a letter in his arms. Although he did more things than before, he didn't feel tired at all. Who would have thought that he would jump from the juren's house to the magistrate's house. When he was resold, he was desperate and thought he would be sold to the merchant's house. In the future, he could only be a grandson. Unexpectedly, there was another village in the dark.

I used to scold him, but now I don’t even say anything when I see him, Mr. Ding, and I still make a claim.

It’s a pity that it’s useless to please him. Thinking of the scene where Yaxing’s boss came to him personally, it’s time to let them have a bad idea. However, the master really cares about his mistress, and he quickly realized that the mistress’s words were better than the master!

In the capital, Zhou Shuren's memorial was also in the hands of the emperor. The emperor not only had Zhou Shuren's memorial, but also had a more detailed report from the spy.

The emperor lay outside on the small kang and read the first chapter of Zhou Shuren.

Zhou Shuren's memorial was not a word of nonsense. He began by explaining how much money he spent on the road, how much grain and seeds he bought, and what he did after arriving in Lizhou. From dividing the first batch of grain to building roads and digging ponds, writing about farming, dividing chickens and pigs, etc., he wrote about how to divide apple trees at most, and talked about the plan to build an apple land.

After reading the memorial, the emperor picked up the memorial report from the spy, filtered the previous few sentences and looked at the key points. The memorial report was more detailed. Not only did Zhou Shuren do what he did, but he also included the account book, and Zhou Shuren's itinerary. It was very detailed wherever he went and everyone he met.

The thick folds are all Zhou Shuren’s message.

The emperor compared the two notes and threw them to the prince, "Look, our Lord Zhou not only stabilized Lizhou City, but also wanted to build Lizhou into a wealthy state!"

He is really looking forward to it. Well, he can look forward to the future tax revenue in Lizhou City. He is happy that he has a good vision. Look, with so many people, he is optimistic about Zhou Shuren.

After the prince finished browsing, he saw the point, "Father, the fruit tree planted by Lord Zhou's wife?"

The emperor smiled and said, "Don't underestimate women. Our Lord Zhou's wife is a good master in catching money. The three houses in Pinggang were bought by Mr. Zhou's wife, who has increased by 1,800 taels. Now it has increased by more than four times. My son, my father tells you, don't underestimate any woman. I'm afraid that your mother will take ruthless actions."

When the emperor thought that the house was his now, he felt very happy. This was the first time that he could reward the house with money!

Prince, "..."

What he talked about is the same person with the queen he knew? His queen is obviously virtuous and kind, gentle and kind!

The emperor looks like you don’t understand your son. When your mother was furious, I walked away from the wall, "Okay, please change Lord Zhou’s memorials, you know how to change them!"

The prince nodded. He knew that the father hated the nonsense of the memorials. He said several times that he asked to write the key points, but the nonsense became more nonsense. The father was so angry that he was itchy. Naturally, he also hoped that the ministers would feel it. Every time he wanted to read the local memorials, the father would add a lot of nonsense. According to the father's wishes, the ministers would not listen to each other, and they would hurt each other. Anyway, the father was sitting and the ministers stood listening!

The prince thought to himself that he was standing and listening, remembering a note from the minister in his heart, and thinking of Lord Zhou’s memorials. It was so pleasant to see. Not to mention that the emperor likes Lord Zhou, he also likes it very much.

In Lizhou City, Zhou Shuren went home at dawn for the first time and the supper was not ready.

Zhulan waited for Zhou Shuren to change into regular clothes and said the contents of the letter. Zhou Shuren said he knew and then disappeared.

Zhulan knew that this would happen. Seeing Zhou Shuren frowned, "Have you encountered a difficult situation?"

Zhou Shuren pulled Zhulan down, "It's not difficult. I heard you mention Mingyun and Rongchuan. I remembered the academy. There are still scholars in Lizhou City. But now the people have difficulty eating. There are no money to study. It will take a few years for some people to recover from farming and study, and the students will be delayed."

If only a few people take the exam for scholars or juren next year, Lizhou will become famous again.

Zhulan, “So you want to run a college?”

Zhou Shuren shook his head, "No, there are official schools in Zhoucheng, but there are only a few people in Lizhoucheng at present. I thought that the yamen would pay for the pen and money, and recruit some good words and students who did not pass the scholarship to copy books."

Zhulan looked at Zhou Shuren not only for the sake of the students, "The books you want to copy are among the rare books on the market!"

Zhou Shuren smiled, and Zhulan knew him best, "Yes, I tell you, our Tongzhi, Mr. Chen, has a lot of books at home. Look, the less books are, the more expensive they are. Once they are copied, they can buy them to the bookstores in Gezhoucheng to sell them. The exchanged silver will be used for students to study, such as subsidies for pens, inks, papers and labor costs. Yes, there are also food, accommodation and transportation costs when taking exams, which can kill multiple birds and tear!"

Zhulan thought to herself, Zhou Shuren didn't know how long he had been thinking about him, "It's really hard for you to take your time to remember Mr. Chen's collection of books."

Zhou Shuren, "Who asked him to show off what he had read if he had something to do or not? You said you would show off when you showed off. You also like to ask me if I had read it. It seemed that he could feel better when he was reading. I kept smiling for many days and finally got the opportunity to cheat him. What do you think about me?"
