    Chapter 218

    The king of the South Court looked at Mu Wanqing with a smirk on his face, but he was ruthless and ruthless.

    Such an opponent is terrifying.

    Mu Wanqing was not afraid of what others thought, and acted according to her own will.

    Daqi officials did not dare to offend his king, for fear of irreparably affecting the relationship between the three kingdoms, they were very scruples.

    But Mu Wanqing dared to pierce the sky, and it's a big deal to make up for it.

    If she dared to make trouble under her nose, she naturally couldn't spare her, and severely suppressed the opponent's arrogance.

    "King of the South Court, money is precious, and freedom is more expensive. Only when people are alive can they have authority. Otherwise, everything will turn into dust and be meaningless."

    The king of the South Court looked extremely ugly, "I have learned the skills of the county head of Qingping."

    Mu Wanqing sighed softly, "You are in the first year of junior high school, and I will be in the fifteenth. Who makes me a woman who will take vengeance, please forgive me."

    Her purest expression and the most brazen words made the officials of the Three Kingdoms amazed.

    Be considerate of the fart, the expression of the king of the southern courtyard almost collapsed.

    However, the situation is stronger than people. This is Xiliang, the territory of Daqi, and the Du family army is eyeing the tiger and taking action at any time.

    Under the eaves of others, had to bow head.

    In the end, Hu Tu, as a close confidant of the King of Nanyuan, returned to China to find a way to raise money.

    The treasury is empty and the people are really poor, but the rich and powerful are not poor.

    There are countless properties under the name of the king of the Southern Academy, and his life is extravagant, so he can spend this amount of money no matter what.

    Hu Tu raised the money as quickly as possible. He was afraid that Ye Changmeng would have too many dreams, and that the King of the Southern Court had many opponents.

    Mu Wanqing also kept her promise, sending people outside the city of Ganzhou, paying for the money and delivering the goods.

    The king of the southern courtyard walked step by step towards the territory of Xiwu, and when he stepped in, he glanced back, and his eagle eyes were not angry and arrogant. "This account has been recorded by this king."

    Who was Mu Wanqing afraid of? She is not afraid of the sky and the earth, and she is full of fighting spirit, "Okay, I will accompany you to the end. I am looking forward to the next time to send money, please get ready early."

    Well, she has never lost.

    The king of the southern courtyard gave her a deep look, and walked away surrounded by everyone.

    Mu Wanqing happily counted the banknotes and hummed a song, "Money, money, it's so easy to come by, ah~ah~"

    This three sighs caused the corners of the people's mouths to twitch.

    The county magistrate of Qingping is good in everything, but he is too Versailles.

    Mu Wanqing was not in a hurry to spend the money, but was busy arranging for the people to pick cotton.

    After the cotton is dried, it is sold to cotton workshops in various towns. After some processing, the workshops are made into cotton cloth and cotton tires, which are directly sold locally to the common people.

    The price is uniform in the whole Xiliang area. You can buy cheap cotton cloth with household registration. If you exceed the share, the price will be different.

    She sent a group of officials to various places to be responsible for promoting this series of work, and whoever did it well was rewarded.

    In this way, a complete industrial chain has been formed, and both upstream and downstream are connected.

    As long as the people who work hard to grow cotton have warm cotton clothes to wear, they can also eat a few full meals.

    This is a rare good day for the poor people, and it is even more like a god to Mu Wanqing.

    After the cotton stalks are broken, the mushroom cultivation technique is taught to the people, so that the people can earn more pocket money and have more dishes on the table.

    As for the seed husks, it is not wasted. Let each guard station build workshops, specializing in alcohol and cotton balls, to improve the treatment of grassroots soldiers in the guard station, and to strictly control the outflow of this batch of military supplies.

    In this way, the lives of soldiers and civilians in Xiliang have been greatly improved.

    During the Chinese New Year, Mu Wanqing announced that the soldiers and the people of Xiliang would each distribute one piece of cloth and two catties of cotton.

    This made the people of Xiliang happy, rejoicing, and joy fell from the sky.

    Thank you Qingping County! This is a good official who does practical things, cares about the people, and works for the welfare of the people everywhere.

    She also announced that Renji Church would be built in various towns to take in orphans and orphans.

    At the same time, vigorously promote the three-year compulsory education, regardless of gender, children over the age of seven must receive compulsory education, which is included in the official assessment items.

    This part of the capital investment is huge, but this is an ironclad rule of Xiliang.

    There is no need for money for free, and there is an example like Mu Wanqing. Neither children nor parents reject such a policy.

    It's really worth it to learn the basic skills of writing and arithmetic in three years.

    Three years later, those with good qualifications pass the exam and enter a higher institution for further study, and those with average qualifications can easily find a job with considerable income.

    Interest comes first, who can refuse it?

    In this way, the patriarchal attitude is curbed, and girls can walk out of the house in an open and aboveboard way, and strive for a bright future for themselves.

    In the following decades, many outstanding women emerged in Xiliang, who appeared in all walks of life and became a beautiful landscape.

    During the Chinese New Year, officials at all levels will be rewarded according to their different performances. From snack coupons to 1,000 taels of silver, almost everyone has something to gain.

    The officials are also elated, and you can always trust the Qingping county owner to have meat to eat.

    It's nice to be able to live a good life without corruption, without taking risks.

    The county magistrate of Qingping also said that after the retirement of officials in Xiliang, they can receive a pension every month, and the officials live in the building to ensure that they can still be decent after retirement.

    As soon as the news came out, everyone was so excited that they couldn't wait for Mu Wanqing to be devastated.

    Du Shuaifu

    The glass room is warm like spring, the flowers and plants are lush and lush, the table is full of food, and the incense is curling, which is very elegant and delicious.

    Du Shuai leaned on the soft couch and looked at the dazzling woman in front of him, "Where does this money come from?"

    Mu Wanqing would visit regularly, not only to talk about business affairs, but also to talk about the problems she encountered.

    This time it's for a New Year's gift.

    "I have already thought about setting up an investment department to build a small commercial pedestrian street in the lively markets of various towns in Xiliang, integrating the current snack street and specialty street, which will not only drive the local economy, but also solve some of the problems. jobs."

    Liangcheng used to be very desolate, but now it is different. It is prosperous. Businessmen from all over the country came here to do business, and various measures came into being.

    There are more restaurants, tea houses, trade houses, inns, carriage shops, escort bureaus, etc.

    In a few years, this place will be more prosperous.

    Other towns can learn from this model for development.

    "And these pedestrian streets are included in the investment department, half are used for continued construction, and half are used as pension pools for public officials. As long as they are diligent and diligent, retired officials who benefit the common people can enjoy such treatment."

    Du Shuai never interfered with her decisions. Anyway, he didn't have as much experience in this area as Mu Wanqing.

    "The initial investment is huge."

    Although he doesn't go out very often, but every time he goes out, he will find that there is a change every time.

    Liangcheng is changing with each passing day, and the people are willing to eat and drink. They are no longer shabby and old clothes, but replaced by brand new thick cotton-padded clothes, and there are more smiles on their faces.

    This made Du Shuai extremely pleased.

    Mu Wanqing had planned it long ago, "So, we will do it in batches and promote it from point to point. In the future, the people's life will be better, and they will naturally be willing to eat and clothe. With higher pursuits, we can also be regarded as a relief for the people's worries. Well."

    She has said all the good and bad things, what else can others say?

    Du Shuai raised his eyebrows, "Have you spent ten million taels of silver?"

    At the beginning, Mu Wanqing brought five million silver to the door, but Du Shuai refused. The Du family did not lack this money.

    Mu Wanqing used it all for economic construction. The money was so useless that it was spent in half a year.

    "Well, after the flowers are over, it would be nice if there is another swindler."

    She is useless for a penny, and every money is spent on improving people's livelihood.

    Du Shuai: ...

    "Is your brother ready to end this county test?"

    Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, "We're already making preparations."

    Du Shuai has met the Mu brothers several times, and they are all good and down-to-earth boys. "With the guidance of a famous teacher, your brother will definitely be able to pass the test easily."

    "According to your auspicious words." Mu Wanqing's expectation for her eldest brother is to be in the imperial examinations, starting from a small official and gradually rising.

    A voice came from my ear, "Sister, let's play together, can you make garlands?"

    It was Mrs. Du, holding a bunch of bright flowers in her hand and sitting happily beside her.

    Mu Wanqing smiled and shook her head, "No, would you?"

    Mrs. Du was well taken care of, with a ruddy face and a happy expression, "I will, my uncle taught me, I will make a garland for you."

    Uncle? Mu Wanqing looked at Du Shuai's hands subconsciously. Are they so clever?

    "That's great, I want this color, and that one, it'll look great together."

    The two got together to discuss the color, and Mrs. Du picked up a small red flower in full bloom, "Will you not add this flower? This one is the best."

    Mu Wanqing thought the flowers were too gorgeous, "This one is the best for you, and it also matches your skin tone. These are more suitable for me."

    Mrs. Du didn't know what to do, and looked at Mu Wanqing moved, "Xiaoqing, you are so kind to me, I like you so much."

    Every time come, bring her delicious food and fun, happy.

    Du Shuai saw that they were making a mess in the conservatory, and his eyes were full of smiles.

    The county exam is coming as scheduled, and mu Zicheng is a little nervous when he goes to the exam room for the first time.

    Ji Cheng circled around him, checking the contents of the test basket, which made him even more nervous.

    Mu Wanqing, who was on the side, drank tons of milk tea, "Brother, take it easy. Uncle Fang said that your knowledge is good, and it will not be a problem to win the jinshi."

    Mu Zicheng was silent, "do you believe this?" He didn't believe it anyway.

    He studied with the family master Fang. Although he did not apprentice, he was a master and apprentice, and the family master Fang was very interested in him.

    Of course, it was more on Mu Wanqing's face.

    Mu Wanqing didn't even blink her eyes, "I believe it, why don't you believe it? My elder brother Mu Wanqing is so good, you have to believe in yourself."

    Being interrupted by her like this, mu Zicheng relaxed a little bit, not so nervous.

    Second Master Mu couldn't stay at the farm any longer, so he personally came to send his son to the examination room. There were also nine children of the Mu clan who entered the examination room together, and they all let them try it out.

    Second Master Mu watched them queuing up to pass the inspection, and his heart was hanging up and down in the air.

    Will it work? Can their Mu family have another jinshi master?

    Mu Zicheng's position in the test room is good or not. It's more in the middle. First, take out the things in the test basket and wipe the table clean with a rag.

    The Four Treasures of the Study were placed on the table, and then he slowly observed the surroundings.

    This examination room is newly built, the ground is concrete, and the surrounding walls are white and clean.

    The candidates ranged from teenage boy Lang to 60-year-old Pulsatilla, everyone.

    After the exam started, mu Zicheng quickly browsed it after getting the exam paper, and his heart completely fell to the ground.

    He wrote his name upright and began to write hard.

    For five games in a row, his family was in charge of picking up and dropping off, but they never asked him how he did in the test.

    After the five sessions were over, Mu Zicheng walked out of the examination room with relief, and Erye Mu helped him into the car, "Father, why don't you ask me?"

    "Your sister said, what else do you ask after you pass the exam? It can't cause you psychological pressure." Second Master Mu has always listened to his daughter's words the most. "She also said that it doesn't matter if you miss it, we will fight again next year."

    Mu Zicheng: ...not touched at all, okay?

    Second Master Mu kept chattering, "However, try to be aggressive, try to get into the exam earlier, and share the worries for your sister, she is too hard to support the family by herself."

    Mu Zicheng: ...what gave you such an illusion? Oh, the eccentric eye.

    "Father, you talk a lot when you're nervous."

    Second Master Mu's eyes widened, "You dare to laugh at your father, you want to get slapped, don't you?"

    On the day of the announcement, the Mu family got up early in the morning, and Mu Wanqing went to work as usual. Before leaving, Mrs. Mu took her hand, "Can't you tell me? At this time, the inside should know the result."

    Everyone looked over in unison.

    "No one dares to come and tell me that I really don't know the result. I want to avoid suspicion, and it is impossible for me to take the initiative to ask." Mu Wanqing felt that if she could not pass the county test, it would be better to wash it. Sleep, don't toss.

    Anyway, she will not help fraud.

    "Qing'er is right. The more it involves relatives and friends, the more you have to avoid suspicion. It's good for everyone." Second Master Mu thought more. Of course, it is a big happy event for Mu Zicheng to be admitted, but there is nothing comparable Mu Wanqing is important.

    Mu Wanqing was the cornerstone of the Mu family.

    As soon as she left, the clansmen came to the door, "Brother Zicheng, let's go, let's go to the list together."

    Many people took the test this time, and everyone could not sit still at home.

    Okay, let's go together, there are so many people.

    The gate of the government office was already surrounded by water, and it was full of candidates and their families.

    Seeing so many people, mu Zicheng couldn't help but hold his head big, pulling his clansmen to watch outside.

    After I don't know how long I waited, the noise sounded, "It's on the list, it's on the list."

    The official posted the list, and everyone gathered around, nervously looking for their name.

    Mu's children also became nervous. Mu Zicheng's heart came to his throat, and he struggled to get to the front of the list...
