Li Wan'er still smiled and said nothing, she didn't even bother to explain to this person, because this person was not her target customer group.
Seeing Li Wan'er's mysterious appearance, a curious rich businessman came out: "Give me a piece, I want to see if your soap is really as magical as you said."
These big merchants have already earned enough money, and it is also a distressing thing to earn a lot of money and have nowhere to spend, so the big merchants like to tinker with some weird things.
In their view, although 500 taels is very expensive, it is completely within the acceptable range.
Going to a brothel for a night of chic, isn't it a waste of money?
Li Wan'er looked at the man a few times, and said with a smile: "Since it is used by the royal family of the Dahua Dynasty, it is naturally only sold to people with status."
Seeing that Li Wan'er actually looked down on him, the rich businessman was instantly furious.
But before he got angry, Li Wan'er said directly to a guard: "It's getting late, we should close."
In the next few days, Li Wan'er's shop was only open for half an hour, and every time it opened, it only showed soap, and did not sell a single piece of soap.
Enough mystery, so that more and more topics about shops and soaps are circulating in the market.
……
On this day, Li Wan'er received a letter from Li An's trustee.
After reading it, she burned the letter, and Li Wan'er took her to the largest dental shop in Anlin City.
"Guest officer, do you plan to buy real estate or buy some maids and slaves?" The tooth shop boy came over.
"I want to buy some fine horses." Li Wan'er chuckled.
"Guest officer, you came at a good time. We have just arrived at a few horses. Guest officer, please follow me."
The servant took Li Wan'er to the stable, where there were more than a dozen horses tied up, some of them were stronger, but they couldn't meet the requirements of the prince, and the others were extremely thin, so they could be used to carry goods.
"Don't you guys have stronger horses?" Li Wan'er looked at the boy.
The servant met Li Wan'er's gaze, and his eyes were full of helplessness: "Guest officer, our horses are already top-quality horses, and the stronger and stronger horses have been bought by the government to serve as war horses. Can't buy it."
As he said that, the servant looked at Li Wan'er vigilantly, "I don't know why the guest officer bought a horse?"
Li Wan'er smiled indifferently, and said casually: "I am a businessman, and I need a few horses to run the business."
Speaking of which, Li Wan'er pointed to a stronger horse: "How much money is this horse?"
"70 taels of silver."
Li Wan'er bought a horse and brought her back to the store, and immediately replied to Li An with a letter.
……
Qingshui County, Ping An Bank.
Li An looked at Li Wan'er's reply, and smiled helplessly: "Sure enough, such important strategic reserves as war horses are not so easy to get."
"Whether this king can get the war horse depends on Miss Wan'er's strength."
"Miss Wan'er is smart and quick-witted, she will definitely get a war horse for the prince." Liu Yiyi is very optimistic about Li Wan'er.
"I hope so. If you can't get it in those small countries, the king will have to go elsewhere."
"Why does the prince have to buy a war horse?"
Liu Yiyi looked at Li An curiously.
"Cavalry is the best choice for charging into battle, and the combat power of cavalry is far superior to other arms. We can't live without such a big killer!"
Ang Li did not neglect the military while developing the economy. He knew that if he did not have enough strength, he would not be able to keep it no matter how much money he made.
Since ancient times, it has always been the case that whoever has big and hard fists is right.
"But my lord, the terrain in southern Xinjiang is rugged and mountainous, so the cavalry shouldn't have much advantage, right?"
Liu Yiyi looked at Li An like a curious baby.
"Yiyi, do you still understand military affairs?" Li An was a little surprised, Liu Yiyi is so smart, learning things quickly and also understanding military affairs?
Could it be that I accidentally harvested a treasure secretary?
Liu Yiyi quickly shook her head: "My lord, I don't know much about military affairs, but I just heard Vice Commander Wang and the others talk about it before."
"So that's how it is." Li An nodded, and continued chattering: "As you said, the mountains in southern Xinjiang are so high and steep. Once a war broke out, the enemy would all go into the mountains and forests. The cavalry really lost their advantage."
"But what about going out to the plains from southern Xinjiang? Who can escape the cavalry's charge and pursuit?"
"My lord, are you going to... fight out?" Liu Yiyi's face was full of nervousness.
"What are you thinking?" Li An smiled indifferently, "Who wants to fight if we have a stable life? But if someone really wants to attack us, we can't just let others hit our door without any precautions."
"Oh." Liu Yiyi nodded desperately, no matter what the prince wants to do, she just needs to stay by his side.
"Yiyi, is it time for a massage?"
"Yeah." Liu Yiyi blushed.
Li An was a little puzzled, had he played too much recently?Why does the little girl blush when she mentions massage?
Hasn't it always been a serious massage?I don't have anything like that...
……
Qingshui County Government.
County magistrate Zhang rushed here with several county magistrates. Looking at the luxurious and majestic new county government, all the magistrates showed envious expressions.
It would be great if I had such an imposing county government office.
Why didn't His Majesty send the prince to their county?
All the benefits were taken by Tian Qi alone, he was so popular!
Tian Qi was busy with official business, the master hurried over, "Master County Magistrate, County Magistrate Zhang has brought other county magistrates to the lobby!"
Hearing this, Tian Qi put down the file in his hand, his face full of doubts: "Why are they here? I have followed the instructions of the prince, and I have finished copying the casino and paid them dividends!"
"My subordinates don't know, Mr. Tian should go out and have a look by himself."
As soon as Tian Qi came to the lobby, several county magistrates greeted him immediately: "Master Tian, you must help us find a way."
Tian Qi always felt that this scene was somewhat familiar.
"You are not here to ask for someone, are you?" Tian Qi looked vigilant.
"Master Tian, you are really witty, that's why we came here."
"Now that the water conservancy projects in our other counties have also been completed, the canal water has nourished the land, everything has recovered, and we can start farming again."
"That's a good thing." Tian Qi pretended to be stupid and looked at everyone in a daze.
"Isn't that a good thing, but although the land can be re-cultivated, the people in our county are all engaged in development and construction in your Qingshui County, and there are not many people to cultivate the land."
What they want to say is that because of Qingshui County's immigration policy, the people who come here to work are not willing to go back to farm.
After working in Qingshui County for a full year, they will receive housing and arable land, and they will also be farming when they return home. The economy of Qingshui County is better than that of their hometown. Anyone who is not stupid knows how to make a choice.
So even if they have issued a series of policies, they have had little effect.
They had no choice but to come to Tian Qi. You Tian Qi snatched him away. If you don't help the brothers find a way to solve the problem, the brothers will not leave!
Chapter 66
Tian Qi also saw through the minds of these people and rubbed his temples with a headache.
"Can't we have as many people as possible and do as many things as possible? First re-cultivate some land so that the common people can have food and clothing, and then slowly expand the population." Tian Qi didn't want to get involved in this muddy water either.
Now is the time for the prince to vigorously build Qingshui County. Workers are needed everywhere. If he sends these people back to cultivate the land, the prince will definitely beat himself up.
"That's what we thought at the beginning, but the lord has set a re-cultivation target for us. If we can't reach the re-cultivation target, the lord should take care of us." County magistrate Zhang cried miserably.
"That's right, and we still owe the prince a sum of money." Another county magistrate also had a miserable look on his face.
"Why do you still owe the prince money?" Tian Qi widened his eyes in surprise.
"Isn't it just a water conservancy project? The funds for the early stage of the water conservancy project were provided by the prince, but the funds for the later stage were loans from Ping An Bank.
Although the amount is not very large, we must hurry up and find a way to pay back the money owed to the lord. "
Tian Qi noticed that when the county magistrates said this, their faces were full of guilt.
These people have something to hide from themselves.
"Has the prince set a repayment date for you?"
Tian Qi asked.
"That's not true, it's just that I always feel a little awkward in my heart when I owe people money." A county magistrate was very sincere.
"In short, County Magistrate Tian, we are under a lot of pressure now. You must help us find a way. Only when the people resume farming can we return the money to the prince!"
Looking at the miserable people, Tian Qi showed a distressed expression on his face. Compared with them, the prince treated him much better.
At most, the prince just drank flowers and wine and recorded the account in his own name. If he had no money for construction, it was the prince's money, and he didn't let himself take a loan from Ping An Bank.
Take the academy as an example, after the money he earned from copying the casino was used up, the prince paid for it from his own pocket.
Compared with a few county magistrates, it's still a big deal for the prince to drink flowers and wine and keep it on his own account?
The prince is a good man.
The county magistrates were really miserable, and Tian Qi couldn't bear to ignore them anymore, so he nodded.
"I'll post a notice later to see if anyone is willing to return to their hometown to farm."
"Then I would like to thank Magistrate Tian."
The notice was sent out quickly, and several county magistrates stayed in the Qingshui county government office without leaving.
They have arranged for people to take care of the affairs of the county government. In short, they can't bring anyone back this time, so they plan to stay here.
Three days have passed since the notice was issued, and very few people are willing to return to their hometowns to resume farming.
After all, the people are not fools, and they all know where to get better development.
Looking at the county magistrates who gathered in front of him with hopeful faces, Tian Qi sighed: "Okay, I'll go find the prince right away."
If he can't find it for a few county magistrates, he can only go to the prince's side to try to see if he can lower the standard of re-cultivation a little.
……
Familiar places, familiar lines.
"Master Tian, you need to make an appointment to see the prince."
The difference from before was that the person in charge of receiving Tian Qi was not Li Wan'er, but another pure and lovely girl.
These are the girls who were rescued by Li An from the bandits last time. After training, they have officially started working.
"Okay, girl, please make an appointment for me."
After waiting for a while, the girl turned back and said, "Master Tian please."
In the courtyard, Li An was enjoying the sunbath, and Liu Yiyi stood on one side and gently fanned him.
"Old Tian, I guess you came to me for the population problem." Li An seemed to be a prophet.
Tian Qi was surprised, he didn't say anything yet, the prince knew it all?
The prince is worthy of being the reincarnation of Thunder God in the sky.
In fact, it was not as mysterious as Tian Qi thought. Liu Qing had already reported to Li An that several county magistrates Qiqi left the county government office and came to Qingshui County government office.
"You really can't get the population to go back to farming, so you plan to ask the king to lower the re-cultivation quota for them?"
"Your Majesty has a wonderful plan." Tian Qi was full of reverence.
"My lord, why don't we stop a few construction sites first, and then let the construction sites start after the people have finished farming?"
"Wow, Lao Tian, you evil capitalist, you actually treat the poor people like this, let them fall at both ends, and one person acts as a messenger for two? You want them to cultivate land and build them?
Don't our common people deserve to have time to rest and enjoy? "
Li An pretended to be surprised, and labeled Tian Qi a capitalist.
Tian Qi blushed when he was told that, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"Then, my lord, can you give the reduction index?"
"It's not good to lower the quota. These county magistrates are too lazy and have no passion for work. I want to put some pressure on them. If there is no pressure, there will be no motivation, and they will not know how to focus on development and construction."
