Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

When Deng Cunli walked out of the warehouse, he saw his apprentice Zhao Minfa waiting outside.

master!

Zhao Minfa went up to meet him with a smile on his face.

Deng Cunli asked him, Why did you come here when you weren't serving by Madam's side?

Zhao Minfa hurriedly explained: Madam sent me to invite you to Xiaozhu.

Deng Cunli nodded, Lead the way ahead.

Master, please.

Deng Cunli has been back to Beijing for some time and has been very busy.

He followed Zhao Minfa to Xiaozhu and met Gu Jiu.

Is madam feeling better?

If you are tired, worry about it. My health is much better. Sit down and talk.

Gu Jiu served tea and snacks in the flower hall, obviously planning to have a long talk with Deng Cunli.

Deng Cunli bowed slightly and sat down on the round stool with a well-behaved look.

Gu Jiu greeted him for tea, and then asked, Is everything ready?

Deng Cunli nodded, According to Madam's order, five million taels of goods have been prepared. Three million taels of goods have been transported away, and the remaining two million goods are stored in the warehouse. They will be shipped out one after another within ten days. The old slave will follow the last A shipment is headed northwest.

Gu Jiu said with satisfaction: You have done a good job. God has not opened his eyes in the past two years. It has been uneven from south to north, and the price of goods has also fluctuated greatly. This time I will let you deliver five million taels of goods to the northwest at one time. You Do you know why?

Madam please show me.

Gu Jiu lightly tapped on the table, thought for a while before saying: You can also see that the capital is not peaceful. For the next period of time, I can't be distracted and take care of the situation in the northwest. Because Shanhe Academy, there are women In the school, more and more people stared at me.

However, the situation in the northwest had to be kept secret. Let no one know that we are doing business with the Northwest Army. Because once His Majesty finds out, His Majesty's suspicious nature will definitely suspect that His Majesty is colluding with the Northwest Army.

Therefore, while everyone's eyes are on the grain and Jiangnan, we must try our best to transport the goods for the next two years to the northwest. In the next two years, there will not be a large amount of goods sent to the Northwest, and I can only guarantee that there will be a small amount of goods replenished. In the next two or three years, all the difficulties in the Northwest will be resolved by you. Is there a problem?

Thank you Madam for your trust in this old slave,

The old slave is fine. Deng Cunli nodded heavily.

Gu Jiu laughed, I knew it was right to hand over the stall in the northwest to you. I heard that because of the huge amount of purchases, Xinmin County has many more merchants coming and going, and it is more lively than usual. Did it attract the attention of the court? ?”

Deng Cunli nodded, The embroidered clothes guard came to ask twice, but was dismissed by the old slave. The old slave told them that he stocked up the goods in advance because he was afraid that the price of goods in the south would increase and the cost would increase. The embroidered clothes guard didn't ask too much. Presumably, I believed what the old slave said.

That's good! The goods in the warehouse will be shipped out of Beijing as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble. After I consider opening a second business route, if it succeeds, all goods sent to the northwest will no longer need to go through the capital.

Madam intends to start a new business? Deng Cunli was surprised.

Gu Jiu nodded, I have this idea, and I have sent people down to investigate along the way. If it is really feasible, I will find a way to facilitate this matter.

Deng Cunli was a little worried, Will it attract the attention of the court? After all, opening up business is not a trivial matter.

Gu Jiu laughed, You can rest assured about this matter. The most worrying thing for the imperial court now is how to resettle the disaster victims. It is impossible and powerless for the government to keep supporting those disaster victims.

At this time, if I propose to raise funds to build a cement road and build irrigation canals in the disaster area, and give priority to recruiting people affected by the disaster, the imperial court will definitely be very willing to cooperate. This solved their big problem, and the court could save a lot of food and grass.

Madam, do you want to replicate Xinmin County in the disaster area?

Gu Jiu shook his head, Xinmin County can't replicate it, not even me. But it can start several large projects at the same time to solve the problems of food and resettlement for the victims.

It's a lot of hard work and a lot of work. And there won't be any income in a short period of time, but a lot of money and food. The old slave doesn't understand why the lady wants to do such a thankless thing? Besides, the disaster area is far away from the capital. Thousands of miles away, those are not Madam's responsibility.

Deng Cunli couldn't understand it at all.

Gu Jiu nodded, It's really not my responsibility.

Is Madam trying to buy people's hearts for His Highness?

Of course not! As you said, the disaster area is thousands of miles away from the capital, and the people there can't affect the overall situation of the capital.

Then why does the lady do these things?

Gu Jiu clapped her hands, and the maid Ah Qing knew the trick, took out a map from Angri in the study, and unfolded it in front of Deng Cunli.

The map that occupies a desktop clearly draws the world in it. One river and one river, mountains and rivers, towns and villages...

Deng Cunli had never seen such a high-definition map, and he was instantly shocked.

This this……

His agitation was uncontrollable.

What is a map?

In this era, maps are military weapons.

It is a treasure that must never be shown to others.

It is a top-secret document that only a few people are lucky enough to see.

A complete map means taking the lead in the war.

In the ancient society with vast land and sparse population, there was no map, and soldiers could be led into the ditch in minutes.

Especially in field battles, the map is a life-saving magic weapon to control the enemy first.

In history, I don't know how many people lost their way during the battle, thus delaying the fighter plane, and even rewriting the history of a family or a country.

The importance of the map can be seen.

Especially such a high-definition and accurate map.

This is a peerless treasure!

Without waiting for Deng Cunli to ask, Gu Jiu took the lead in explaining: This map took several years to draw, and it should be the most complete map in the world. This is all thanks to the teachers and students of the academy, who have been traveling around all year round to survey and map geography regardless of their hard work. Only mountains and rivers have this map.”

Deng Cunli was surprised, Ma'am, what do you mean, this map was drawn by the teachers and students of the academy? This, this, this... Isn't Madam worried that they will leak the news?

Gu Jiu shook her head, You misunderstood, the map was drawn by Mrs. Ben herself. The teachers and students of the academy are responsible for providing me with data from various places to ensure the accuracy of the map.

Madam drew it by herself?

Gu Jiu nodded, I can't entrust the people below to handle such a terrible event. I can only write it myself. In fact, I wanted to do this matter many years ago. At that time, I had no accurate data, so I only drew it. A rough map of the capital.

After the academy established the World Tour project, the teachers of the academy led a team to lead outstanding students to tour the world. I assigned homework to them, collected data on people's customs, geology and landforms, and surveyed and mapped mountains and rivers. Then it was aggregated to me, and only then did I have this map.

In order to keep it secret, Gu Jiu drew it by hand.

He asked the bookstore to send a set of printing tools, and Liu Zhao personally printed two sets of them in color.

One of them was taken to Jiangnan by Liu Zhao.

Gu Jiu said, You are the fifth person who knows the existence of this map. Remember to keep it secret.

Even if this old slave dies, he won't reveal a single word! It's just that this has nothing to do with Madam's plan.

Gu Jiu casually drew a circle on the map, This area is the hardest hit area this year. Next to it is the prosperous Jiangnan. Can you see it?

Deng Cunli frowned, Madam, do you want to manage Jiangnan?

Gu Jiu laughed and shook his head, I want to manage the grain-producing areas. The land of fish and rice has great potential. Now the annual grain production is less than one-twentieth of the potential.

If this area is fully developed, the waters will be opened up, water conservancy will be built, good fields will be reclaimed, and the poor in the northwest will be relocated there to reclaim wasteland and farm land. When the population is dense and the rice warehouses are full in the future, it will be a veritable land of fish and rice.

Deng Cunli frowned, Madam used to say that farming doesn't make much money. Why did you change your mind now?

Gu Jiu's hand slowly moved towards the north, and finally landed on Xinmin County, Xinmin County is my wife's foundation, but this foundation has a fatal weakness, he has no backup, no retreat.

Now God has sent an opportunity for Mrs. Ben to intervene in this large area of ​​land and population. As long as the management is correct, after a few years, this is our second foundation and our backup.

The population, food, students, and various resources here are all available to me. You only need to invest a little money and food to get all of this, and this lady has no reason to give up the opportunity to deliver it to your door.

What about the government? How does Madam plan to deal with the government? The imperial court will not sit back and watch Madam manage this place without asking.

Gu Jiu chuckled, So we need a supporting plan to attract the attention of everyone inside and outside the court. People will ignore this place.

Deng Cunli instantly understood Gu Jiu's plan.

Madam intends to use the academy and the bookstore to attract the court's attention?

Exactly! Don't forget that we still have Duke Sanyuan.

Once Sanyuan Gong came out, who cared about the people in the disaster area thousands of miles away.

Deng Cunli was very surprised, Could it be that Madam has already thought of today when she recruited San Yuan Gong?

Of course not. My wife is not a fortune teller. It is impossible to predict such a serious disaster in the Jiangling area a few years ago. My wife recruited Sanyuan Gong because he is famous and influential. Maybe When will it come in handy. Obviously, this is the right move. San Yuangong has lived up to my wife's kindness to him.

Gu Jiu's treatment for San Yuangong is definitely a high salary.

It is enough for Sanyuan Gong to feed a large family, and it is more than enough.

Sanyuan Gong, this lady has never let you down.

Don't let Mrs. Ben down either!
