Chapter 540 Come whenever you want
Suzhou.
After a period of rectification, the situation of Suzhou nobles illegally enclosing land has been basically brought under control.
After news came from Kyoto that the position of female officials would be abolished and the Queen Mother fainted, the Wei family fell into complete silence.
In addition to honestly paying the fine for illegally occupying government land, he also returned all the good farmland to Old Man Liu.
The wasteland in Eagle's Beak Bay naturally belongs to the Regent's fiefdom.
Wei Lichu learned about Yi Lanxin's death from a secret letter sent by the Yi family, and she cried bitterly for several times.
My eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Mrs. Wei couldn't bear to blame her any more. "After this incident, you should grow up. There are always people better than you. Not everything is under your control."
"They use their power to kill people, and I don't accept it." Wei Lichu cried.
"You also enjoy the power of the aristocratic family. Do others obey you?" asked Mrs. Wei.
"I..." Wei Lichu wanted to refute, but found that there was no reason to refute at all.
She was able to enjoy wealth and glory and study in Suzhou Academy because of her identity: she was the legitimate daughter of the Wei family.
Isn't it a kind of power?
"I will not forget my cousin's last wish. I will become a female official in the future." Wei Lichu made up her mind.
Mrs. Wei didn't want her to continue causing trouble and offend Shen Sui'an, so she sent her to Suzhou Academy and instructed her son.
"Have someone keep a close eye on her and don't let her come and go freely in the academy. It's enough for her to go home once a month."
"Don't let her get into trouble. She is young and inexperienced and doesn't understand the ways of the world."
Wei Huaizhang agreed, "Don't worry, mother. I will take good care of my sister."
"Go." Mrs. Wei believed in her son, who was more sober than Wei Shidong.
The Wei family will only last long in his hands in the future.
As for what she would do next, it was to find a way to get back on good terms with the Regent Princess.
Even if she cannot become the princess' helper like Madam Sun, she should at least make the princess let go of her prejudice against the Wei family.
At this time, Shen Sui'an had already forgotten about the Wei family. It was not worth her attention at all.
With the arrival of the shipworkers, construction at the shipyard has begun.
Eagle Bay is only one step away from completion, and its focus is on the construction of the commercial street.
It is not difficult to build a businessman, and it can be solved with money.
The biggest problem is how to get merchants to settle down here. Without goods, there will be no business.
She had to find a way to attract merchants to Suzhou.
"I think we can take care of the merchants of Yong Dynasty." Zhao Jiuling said.
"Why?" The Yong Dynasty has Tianhe City, and those merchants may not be willing to go to the Southern Dynasty.
Zhao Jiuling: "The Yong Dynasty is very strict with merchants, and taxes have increased by 30% this year. Merchants going out to sea can make money, but once the taxes are paid, not much can be left."
"..." Shen Sui'an really didn't expect that the new emperor of Yong Dynasty would do such a stupid thing.
The sea transport had only just begun, and Tianhe City had not yet recovered its former prosperity.
The mother and son, one robbed boats and the other increased taxes.
This is going to drive merchants to death.
"Yes, those who are willing to come to Suzhou to do business will be exempted from taxes for the first two years, and each shop can be sold at half price. We will give them land and let them settle down in Suzhou with peace of mind."
Zhao Jiuling asked: "This strategy can also be used against other merchants in the Southern Dynasty."
If it is only given to merchants from the Yong Dynasty, it is bound to cause dissatisfaction among local merchants in the Southern Dynasty.
Harmony brings wealth, which can lead to even more wealth.
"Of course." Shen Suian nodded.
Zhao Jiuling smiled and said, "Then I'll arrange it."
"By the way, several of my shopkeepers have all come to Suzhou. They want to kowtow to you and pay their respects to you." Zhao Jiuling said.
"They are all good traders. Sister can tell them anything in the future."
Shen Sui'an: "Okay, what Suzhou needs most now is talent."
She knew that in her previous life, Zhao Jiuling was surrounded by a group of business experts, and she hoped that Zhao Jiuling could still find them all.
Zhao Jiuling: "I will write the rules and then pass them down one by one."
"Jiuling, thank you for your hard work, but you..."
"Sister, I don't have the heart to talk about anything else now. Even if I get married, I can't be distracted." All his attention was on the commercial street and Eagle Bay.
Shen Sui'an felt distressed, "It will delay your lifelong event."
"How could that be? I'm still young." Zhao Jiuling said with a smile.
She was only worried that he was still obsessed with Ruan Zhaoxia.
Zhao Jiuling was afraid that he would be seen through more, so he stood up and said goodbye.
Shen Sui'an even had a lot more to say, and all he saw was his hurried back.
She turned to look at Shui Yanze.
"Young Master Zhao is not interested in women. I don't know how many women's hearts he has broken. When he went out yesterday, his carriage was almost filled with flowers and fruits." Shui Yanze said.
Shen Sui'an sighed softly, "If it weren't for..."
If he hadn't been interested in Ruan Zhaoxia, she would have suspected that Zhao Jiuling was a homosexual.
After all, he didn't get married in his previous life.
"Princess, there is a letter from the royal capital." Fuqiu came in with the letter.
Shui Yanze stood up and said goodbye and left.
Shen Suian quickly opened the beeswax.
Now everything in the royal capital makes her nervous.
I’m afraid that bad news will come one day.
Yesterday Fu Jinyuan told her what happened in the royal capital. When she heard Ruan Xinglin's request, she was deeply grateful to her uncle.
If it weren't for those female officials, nothing would have happened.
She couldn't bear to see Fu Jinyuan sad because of family ties.
Are you holding grudges against your biological mother and brother, whom you finally recognized, because of insignificant things?
Liao Yingying and Yi Lanxin both deserve to die.
It was a letter from Cheng Zhiyun to her.
She said Zhou Zhou had been going to the palace frequently recently, and every time he came back he had a frown on his face.
He repeatedly studied medical books on treating heart disease.
Since it was about the nobles in the palace, Zhou Zhou didn't say much to her.
Shen Sui'an held the letter, his hands shaking slightly.
She hurried to find Fu Jinyuan.
"Has Doctor Zhou written to you?" she asked.
Fu Jinyuan nodded, "Just received it."
"Is it the emperor's heart disease..." Shen Suian said shyly. When leaving the royal capital, Fu Jinyi obviously looked very healthy.
"He is caught in the middle, and he has the hardest time." Fu Jinyuan said in a hoarse voice.
The appearance of Tong Yao made Fu Jinyuan come to Suzhou, which was a very sad thing for Fu Jinyi.
Later, when Yi Lanxin appeared in Salt Lake City, he understood no matter how naive he was.
He wanted to protect Fu Jinyuan and wanted to kill Yi Lanxin with his own hands, but he couldn't bear to hurt the Queen Mother's feelings.
Once people become entangled, they tend to have wild thoughts.
"What should we do then? Do you want to go back to the royal capital?" Shen Suian asked.
Fu Jinyuan said calmly, "Fu Qian'an and Du Youchuan are here today."
"?" Shen Sui'an was stunned. What were they doing here?
"They were the ones who set up the trap to kill Liao Yingying and Yi Lanxin." Fu Jinyuan sighed, what a fool.
"They were almost killed by robbers along the way, and it was the secret guards who rescued them." As for where the robbers came from, it is unknown.
Fu Jinyuan picked up his pen and prepared to write a letter.
"What are your plans?" Shen Sui'an asked.
"Write a letter to Yier." Fu Jinyuan picked up the pen and wrote four words in a flamboyant style.
Shen Sui'an leaned over to take a look.
Come whenever you want.
