Shocked! After planting, a sickly and charming first assistant will grow up.

"The total income of the three families is 10 million taels of silver."

"Five hundred chests of gold."

"Jades, rare treasures, calligraphy and paintings...a few."

"There are fifty-seven farms, more than a hundred shops, and over a hundred houses and villas with land deeds."

"Twenty granaries, cloth, medicinal materials, mines, etc."

After reading the long list, all the ministers were a little dizzy. How could this be confiscating the property? Damn it, is this a robbery of the treasury?

Wait, wait, why is there still something about the mine? Did they hear that right?

Luo Xi held a stack of parchment scrolls in her sleeves and handed them to Laixi to present to the emperor, her eyes scanning the entire audience.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "The Minister of Household Affairs is very interested in the proceeds from my confiscated house? Is it possible that he also wants a piece of the pie?"

The little foot of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance that was about to move froze in mid-air, and he put it back angrily, "I don't dare to do it."

Luo Xi snorted coldly, looked at the emperor who had finished flipping through the sheepskin book, and smiled, "I copied it to the Taifu's house and accidentally discovered the coordinates of these mines."

"I have explicitly banned private mining. I think these mines can be most effective only if they are handed over to you."

"Your Majesty is kind to me. I cannot live up to your love and trust. This is the opportunity for me to fulfill my filial piety."

"Dayong just experienced natural disasters and wars last year, and the national treasury is tight. If the country wants to develop, money is essential."

"I am willing to dedicate the largest portion of the proceeds from the house confiscation to Your Majesty for development that benefits the country and the people."

The officials were stunned. Luo Xi, who wanted to pick up a handful of sheep as they passed by, had really changed her gender?

There was no time for joy, Luo Xi's next words were like a basin of cold water poured down her head.

"I would like to dedicate this mineral to His Majesty and put it into his private treasury. I believe that the mined gold and iron ore can only be used to its full potential in the hands of the Emperor."

"I also hope that this land will bloom with the most gorgeous flowers, the country will be rich and the people will be strong, and one day we will unify the nine states."

Luo Xi is very smart. Mining is not only time-consuming but also labor-intensive. She hid the coordinates of the mine, and the Taifu in the prison will most likely reveal the information.

When the time comes, she will become crazy with jealousy, and all the officials who are secretly poking at her and waiting to grab her pigtails will have reason to jointly impeach her.

Even if her uncle didn't doubt her intentions, it would be difficult for these idiots who wanted to cause trouble to take advantage of the emperor. She would not give anyone such an opportunity.

It would be better for the mine to be developed by her uncle to benefit the people of the country. She knew that the emperor had many ideas, but he could not implement them because there were always people who spoke against them.

This is a good emperor who has ideas and loves his people like a son. Only with money can he better display his ambitions, arm the country, and unite the people.

Zhan Aotian's eyes were filled with emotion, how could his little cotton-padded jacket be so considerate!

"Good, great good! Xi'er has a heart. If the civil and military officials in this dynasty were as caring and sensible as you, I would be able to wake up from my dreams with a smile."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Xiyun City will reduce taxes for the next ten years. Beiling will give you 100,000 cattle and sheep each as compensation for the post-war compensation. I will also grant you the mining rights for the mines located in the north."

The little cotton-padded jacket gave him such a big surprise. It happened that the plan that had been stalled due to the shortage of the treasury could be restarted. The niece was the blessing left to the world by the imperial sister!

Luo Xi's smile deepened. Sure enough, her uncle saw the coordinates of the Northland mine that she deliberately put together and understood what he meant by indulging her.

Such a relative is worth protecting with all her heart.

The ministers: "..."

Rolling your eyes to the sky, you uncles and nephews are just playing "you give me a candy and I'll give you a candy", right?

The left hand turns to the right hand, and all the benefits fall into one's own pocket.

Having said that, although Luo Xi's move was a bit suspicious of borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, they also admired her courage to share the treasure without changing her expression.

No one wants to raise a white-eyed wolf. No wonder the royal family loves and protects him. Who wouldn't like such a capable and conscientious child?

Come on, even though the money goes into the emperor's private treasury, His Majesty is not a fool. He will use it to create national strength!

The ministers have sore teeth and can barely survive!

After the court, Luo Xi left the palace and went to Luo Mansion outside the city.

Her group of brothers from Zhengdao Village were arranged to live here temporarily. Luo Xi already knew the news that Zhengdao Village was almost destroyed.

He found Gu Fei, who had just returned from the Ministry of Industry, and asked, "Brother Fei, I will leave for the fiefdom soon. Gu Yue has already agreed to leave with me. Do you want to take Gu Niang with you?"

Apart from their blood relatives, the Gu family had little affection for Luo Xi, and they used to raise her as half a son.

When Yu Gufei met again, Luo Xi sent him to the Ministry of Industry without saying a word. She didn't want him to become an official through the back door or anything, but sent him there to purely learn a craft.

Luo Xi did not hide her secrets in the manufacture of artillery and repeating crossbows. The old guy from the Ministry of Industry and the Mo family were very considerate of her, and they were considerate of Professor Gu Fei.

After Luo Xi finished speaking, she thought that Gu Fei would have to think about the pros and cons no matter what, but unexpectedly he agreed immediately, his smile as hearty as before.

"Okay! Our family will follow you. My family's ancestral home is also in the north, and we later fled to Zhengdao Village to take root."

"Brother, I learned a lot from the Ministry of Industry. I will definitely be able to help you when I go to Yingzhou."

After the matter was finalized, Tieniu and others in the room looked at each other. Luo Xi looked at it and thought:

"The houses in Zhengdao Village were burned down, and the villages need to be rebuilt. What about you? Are you interested in joining my fiefdom?"

Tieniu and others thought that when they arrived in Yingzhou, it would be Luo Xi's territory. Not to mention walking sideways, at least they would not experience the danger of almost wiping out the village again.

But this matter is too big for them to decide, and Luo Xi understands it.

He tapped on the table and said: "Let's do this. King Mobei is going to Nan'an Mansion recently and asked him to send a message back. If our village intends to move, it will be safe with King Mobei protecting us along the way."

My uncle had promised on the frontier that he would entertain the Nan'an family members who sent him food and grass during critical moments on the frontier.

A king must practice what he preaches.

Actually, Luo Xi felt that the key was that her uncle wanted to take Gu Yue to meet Gu Niang. The two of them had been fighting fiercely recently.

Brothers become aunts, Luo Xi gets toothache every time she sees her little girl!

Everyone was overjoyed, "Then I'll trouble King Mobei."

Luo Xi also had her own considerations in bringing Zhengdao Village to the fiefdom. She returned to Beijing from the border and saw few people.

Most of the people who fled originally settled in the south and west. Although it is said that fallen leaves return to their homeland and it is difficult to leave, migration in this dynasty was very difficult and dangerous.

I don’t know how many obstacles I will encounter along the way!

Even after the natural disaster has passed, there are still only a small number of indigenous people who have returned to their homeland.

Without anyone, no matter how great her ambition is, she can't realize it.

While he was talking, the manager of the Luo Mansion came to report, "My young prince, a man claiming to be your fourth grandfather has come outside. Please see me."

When he said this, the corners of Butler Xiang's eyes and eyebrows were twitching.

The guy outside looks like he's in his twenties. Is it really good for someone so young to be a grandfather?

If he hadn't noticed that the young man was not simple, he would have blasted him out with a big broom.

Thinking of the wild grandpa whom she had met once before on the border, Luo Xi thought thoughtfully and said, "Let people come in!"
