After her husband died in battle, she relied on the villain cub to make a comeback.

……

Ye Zhizhi has been busy dealing with the restaurant and Zhou Qingli's affairs every day recently. She gave Tantai Che a casual diagnosis that day and then forgot about it.

But Tantai Che, who returned home, became suspicious.

Two months ago, he and Song Qingjun were searching for mineral veins and attracted many assassins. To save his life, he jumped into the river at the dock and swam for two or three hours before escaping the assassination attempt.

When we got ashore, it was quite cold when the night wind blew us ashore.

But he was in good health, and he didn't have a fever or cough. He just had a weak internal fire - which was exactly what the young woman said.

"Is it actually filled with cold evil?" Tantai Che hesitated a little.

He had great military achievements and was a general who was as famous as Yong and Yanhou. It would be ridiculous if his illness was delayed and problems occurred because of the diagnosis of quack doctors.

After enduring his nausea, he finished dealing with Sun Xiaoya and went to the Huichun Hall in Fucheng to find Dr. Feng.

Dr. Feng carefully checked his pulse, and then said with a serious face, "Sir, you are in good health, but you have heat evil in your body. Maybe it has something to do with your practice of Kung Fu. I will prescribe you some yin coolants." Medicine, you’ll be fine if you drink it.”

This diagnosis was exactly the same as that of the two imperial doctors in his mansion.

Tantai Che laughed.

He was really stunned. Instead of trusting the imperial doctor's diagnosis, he actually trusted the judgment of a young woman.

Maybe Hyun Bin said he was destined to have a disaster this year?So when the little woman, with bright eyes and a serious look on her face, said that he was possessed of cold evil, he subconsciously believed her words, was he afraid that his death at the hands of a quack would become a joke?

Shaking his head, with emotion, Zhou Shuhe opened the door and walked in with the drawings, saying, "I have already drawn the drawings for digging the ditch, but the manpower sent by His Majesty to us is not enough, so maybe we have to hire some people to help. .”

"Hire? How to hire?"

Tantai Che smiled, "The war at the border is tense, and the Marquis of Hell has asked for a lot of money and food to make repeated crossbows. The imperial court can't afford the money at all now!"

"But Your Majesty asked you and me to experiment in Qinghe County. If this can be done, other states can follow suit. Before I left, your Majesty's father-in-law Xi repeatedly told me -"

Zhou Shuhe lowered his voice and said, "People say that Your Majesty killed his father and brother in order to usurp the throne. This led to drought and miserable suffering in the southern states. His contribution to digging canals will last forever. Your Majesty needs this contribution to establish his status as a wise king!"

It's okay for Tantai Che to march and fight, but it's really not okay to make such a mess.

Simply call all the county magistrates and their lieutenants to have a small meeting.

Qinghe County has 42 villages under its jurisdiction, and the farthest one here is one hundred and eight thousand miles away from the dock! If Tantai Che brings a thousand people to excavate, I don't know how long it will take to dig until the year of the monkey and the horse and the moon!

Magistrate Chen said: "Why don't we call on the local wealthy gentry to donate money and use the money to hire people to dig canals?"

County Magistrate Sun sneered and said, "Qinghe County has been either suffering from drought or floods and locust plagues in recent years. Governments from all over the country have been putting pressure on wealthy businessmen to open warehouses to release grain and help the people. They have long been complaining about it!"

The head clerk looked solemn: "Digming ditches is not a small project. It requires tens of thousands of people to participate. If each person pays ten cents per day, it will cost 10 taels per day..."

"But if we don't dig canals and the situation continues like this, we will be hit by disasters year after year, tax revenue will not be collected, and the national treasury will be empty. The court is afraid that we will be held accountable..."

Several people sighed one after another, and Tantai Che felt his head hurt listening to these useless people talking.

Zhou Shuhe simply waved his hand and said, "Forget it, it's me who is sick. I am the number one scholar in the dynasty and even the Minister of Household Affairs can't do anything. How can I expect you to give me any good ideas? I might as well go find Miss Ye!" "

Yup!

Why doesn't he go find Ye Zhizhi!

This method was originally proposed by Ye Zhizhi. If it works, he can also help her ask the emperor for the title of county head!

Thinking that the two of them had not seen each other since they were separated last time.

His intuition told him that Miss Ye must have a way to solve the predicament he was facing.

Zhou Shuhe did what he said, and went to Tianshui Village to find Ye Zhizhi that day, and told the story bitterly and with hatred.

Ye Zhizhi said, "The court can't provide any money, but you can allow the participating people to reduce their taxes."

"Are you still exempt? The imperial treasury is extremely empty. This..."

"If it doesn't rain, the millet in the field won't have enough to eat, and it will naturally be small and flat. If water is diverted for irrigation, the millet will grow well and the yield will increase. The [-]% exemption you make is no different from the [-]% exemption before irrigation."

"But if you don't give money and make a bad check, what can they do?"

"Then you just hold a meeting, call all the village leaders and the famous clan elders in the village, people who have the right to speak, go to the town, and fool them into lameness and you'll be done!"

"Why are you fooling me? Can you help me fool you?"

Ye Zhizhi, "..."

Ye Zhizhi really wanted to slap him in the face with a big mouth.

But thinking that the Sun family can only be arrogant if they have a backer, this is a good opportunity to show their face. He suddenly said, "Okay. You can go back. We will gather people tomorrow and I will take my eldest son to talk."

It was said that he was taking Xiao Xingzhi, but in fact, he was giving this child an opportunity to get in touch with the upper class and the powerful, and to show his face in front of big shots.

Ye Zhizhi said earnestly, "You are the smartest child in our family. You have to think carefully about the distance from the dock to each village, how many people are needed, and how long one person will dig."

Sizhu was dissatisfied. He thought he was also a smart boy. Why didn't his mother need his help?

No, he must come up with these things before his eldest brother and make his mother’s eyes light up!

Mother and son were discussing in the house.

Xiao Xingzhi stood up, took one step forward and said, "My step is about one meter smaller. I walked from Tianshui Village to the town. It is roughly estimated to be five or six kilometers. To the county seat, it is fifty or sixty kilometers. If it is a A person digs a one-meter ditch..."

Ye Zhizhi asked, "How long will it take?"

"This..." Xiao Xingzhi was stumped and was about to say that he needed to use pen and paper to calculate.

The next moment, Erzhu's small mouth was heard saying, "One person is one meter, and sixty kilometers requires 6 people. Taking Tianshui Village as the standard, excluding young children and the elderly, there are about 270 people who can go out to help, and there are 42 villages. If one person digs for an hour, it will take five hours!"

Ye Zhizhi patted her thigh, "Exactly!"

Sanzhu also nodded, "I am considered to be this number."

"Impossible!" Xiao Xingzhi frowned, "I haven't calculated it yet."

Ye Zhizhi gave him a chance to figure it out.

In the end, it looked like he had gone to great lengths to calculate Baal and came up with the same result.

"Why are my second and third brothers better at counting than me?"

"That's because brother, you haven't learned addition, subtraction, multiplication and division," Sanzhu said expressionlessly, "When my mother taught me before, you didn't learn it and looked down on it. You sneered and said it was a crooked way."

Xiao Xingzhi, "..."

is it?

Ye Zhizhi smiled, "Isn't it?"

Xiao Xingzhi was shocked, "How could I be so rebellious?"

He sighed and said, "Then punish me to learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division today!"

Ye Zhizhi, "..."

You are really shameless.
