Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 998 Today: I'm Too Difficult

Xue Baochai's sudden graduation caused a little shock among female students.

It was so sudden that it made her classmates feel unreal.

You know, the school girls have high hopes for Xue Baochai.

He went up to the master of the mountain, and went down to his classmates and school girls. He was very friendly to Xue Baochai and was very optimistic about her future.

It is true that Xue Baochai is not only amazingly knowledgeable, but also surprisingly popular.

At such a young age, he has slick communication skills, which is quite remarkable.

Lin Daiyu, who is also a top student in women's schools, may have better knowledge than Xue Baochai, but she is far behind in popularity.

There are not many female students who can talk to Lin Daiyu and have many exchanges. Lin Daiyu also makes friends based on her eyesight and character.

However, only the outstanding female students knew that Xue Baochai had suddenly graduated and seemed to have received an important task.

When Xue Baochai left, she implicitly hinted that they would have such an opportunity in the future.

Lin Daiyu, Sanchun and Shi Xiangyun reacted immediately, it should be what they guessed in their hearts.I was quite excited for a while.

Anyway, there may be opportunities to meet and even work together in the future, so naturally there will not be so many parting worries.

Soon, Xue Baochai disappeared from the social circle of female students.

Later, I seldom even heard of her existence, and I don't know where she went?

At this time, Xue Baochai had already boarded his own ship, and after a period of sea voyage, he successfully arrived at the big island not far from Goryeo.

Once there, she immediately took over the management of the big island port terminals.

I don't know if she is really this material, or if she is lucky enough to not be acclimatized when she arrives.

After starting the work, it went smoothly and there were almost no major mistakes.

With the continuous support of materials and personnel from the Central Plains, Xue Baochai presided over the construction of a simple port in just half a year, the kind that can moor ocean-going ships.

With the port, the speed of development and construction on the Big Island suddenly accelerated.

Of course, some unbearable things were unavoidable during the period, and about one-third of the people who migrated were not acclimatized, and there were hundreds of casualties.

However, Xue Baochai's performance is still impressive.

She was so ruthless, and at the same time, she was so low in stature, after a combination of kindness and force, her influence would definitely make the existence who just came to the island slap her tongue.

In his letter to Jia Rong, Xue Baochai boldly assured that as long as he was given another half a year, it would be enough for Da Dao to become partially self-sufficient.

If there is still spare energy to go out to sea to fish, they can reach the level of self-sufficiency within a year.

Jia Rong was naturally very satisfied with this and gave Xue Baochai enough trust.

He wasn't worried at all that Xue Baochai might occupy the magpie's nest, she wasn't that courageous, nor did she have that kind of strength.

Just kidding, ocean going is quite risky in modern times, let alone the current era.

It can be said that a sea ship is not a weak combat unit.

The crew on a ship at sea can become a warrior with strong combat effectiveness at any time.

In addition, the people who have gone to the island to maintain order are all subordinates of the Ning Mansion.
Not to mention how high his loyalty is, at least he won't easily follow Xue Baochai around.

Although the number of refugees on the island is increasing, it is not a small project just to resettle them, and it is not easy to organize them thoroughly.

Xue Baochai and his subordinates don't have any military capabilities.

Not to mention, all the communication between the big island and the outside world requires sea ships.

At the same time, sea ships are also needed to cut off the connection with Goryeo, so as to avoid attracting the attention and interference of Goryeo government forces.

In short, the situation on Xue Baochai's side is all good, even the route between Dagan and Dadao is calm.

As for the fleet from Dagan, with the foothold of Dashima, the trade between Korea and Korea has become more frequent.

Some honorable families even planned to build warehouses in the port area of ​​the big island as a trade transit.

As a result, the development of the Big Island can almost be described as changing with each passing day.

Moreover, with the big island springboard, it can even radiate the Japanese country, and some honorable bosses with long-term vision have their eyes red with envy.

Not to mention how Xue Baochai was in high spirits on the big island in the outer sea, Dagan has really entered the Little Ice Age here.

Even in summer, the temperature is much lower than before.

The abnormal climate naturally caused the crops to not grow so smoothly.

Even in a place without natural disasters, a reduction in grain production is an inevitable event.

In the summer, grain prices in the north have already risen steadily.

Even if the imperial court thought of many ways, the collusion between officials and businessmen was even more rampant, and it couldn't be stopped at all.

At this time, Jia Rong did something that was considered stupid by others.

In the name of Ningfu Women's School, a book on the rational planning of farmland and water conservancy construction compiled by the previous women's school students was directly published and distributed to the world.

For a while, it caused quite a stir.

No matter what the contents are, when Jia Rong did such a thing, she was judged by many dignitaries as having a brain problem.

However, those who have carefully read the contents of the booklet and have a certain understanding of farmland water conservancy, immediately feel like a treasure after reading the booklet.

Worried that there are omissions in the reason, I dare not try all of them on my own Zhuangzi, but I will also take out one or two Zhuangzi experiments.

Not to mention farms, even those landlords with a little more land, Lao Cai, can also improve their own land according to the contents of the booklet.

Although the cheap ones are mostly those with strength and a lot of land, Jia Rong doesn't care too much.

There is no way, unless Jia Rong spends a lot of effort and energy to actively toss, otherwise he can only wait for the farmland water conservancy technology to sink layer by layer.

Whether or not Jia Rong is an official, even if he is an official, the scope of his management is limited.

In this era, the influence of the royal family and the imperial court cannot be managed to the lowest level of the countryside.

The only thing he can manage is the farm in Ningfu.

Even the farm of the Rongfu of the same clan, there is no way to intervene.

However, his generous gesture has been praised by the present and the court.

Jia Rong naturally didn't care about this. He just hoped that during the Little Ice Age, through some trivial efforts of his own, he could reduce some losses, or reduce the casualties of some people.

It can only be said that some people are not worthy of being human at all.

At a time when there is a shortage of crops, and when grain production is significantly reduced, to keep driving up grain prices is to force people with little land and no land to die.

As a result, before the autumn harvest season, a new round of land annexation has already started in many places in the north, and Chiluoluo is also very bloody.

It's just that some of these situations are exposed, while others are completely hidden.

Outside the capital, refugees gradually gathered again, and as the weather got hotter, more and more refugees gathered.

Basically, they are all low-level people who are forced to flee from famine because of the increase in food prices.

The nobles, under today's call, set up porridge sheds at the root of the city wall to relieve the victims.

After a few times of tossing before, everyone has learned to behave now.

All the porridge sheds are almost all grain bran and wild vegetables that don't taste very good. At most, they add some cheeks and their own dried fish.

This alone is enough for the gradually gathered victims to survive.

It's just that such a scene is very unsatisfactory today.

In fact, at this time, it was time for Huangzhuang to make great achievements. Unfortunately, no one reminded the present, and it is estimated that Huangzhuang's management is not very clean.

Rising food prices will naturally affect coal mining. Has the cost increased?

Fortunately, after several discussions with Jia Rong, they finally reached an agreement with the Founding Xungui Group, which controls most of the coal mines in Jin Province.

Coal mine wages will not rise for the time being, and food expenses will remain the same.

It is actually a good thing for absenteeism that Ningfu provides a large amount of dried sea fish as a substitute after the rise in food prices.

After all, although the taste of dried sea fish is mediocre, it can provide a lot of salt for labor, as well as enough protein and some fat, which is enough.

It's just that food prices can't keep rising, otherwise the Founding Group, which feels that it's losing money, won't really lose money and make money.

During this period, the work of collecting refugees and transporting them to the big island outside the sea went quite smoothly, with almost no obstacles encountered.

The local government wished that there would be as few refugees as possible, and the imperial court didn't care about it at this time. As long as the refugees didn't make trouble, they could go wherever they wanted.

Today, however, he frowned slightly after seeing the report of the royal secret agent, but he didn't say much.

To be honest, it is actually a good thing for someone as capable as Ning Fu Jia Rong to put his mind and energy on the sea.

It was much better than him setting his eyes on the hinterland of Dagan.

In the current campaign, there are continuous natural disasters, and the court's foundation is rapidly depleted. Today, it is also a headache, and by the way, I am also a little nervous.

There has been bad news from the south. Locust plagues have appeared to varying degrees in various places. It is estimated that there will be major problems in the grain harvest this year.

What's going on here?
If I ask myself now, he hasn't done anything outrageous since he became emperor.

In the capital city, there are already rumors that the continuous natural disasters are pinned on today's head, which can be said to have ulterior motives.

Although he is very angry now, he doesn't want to make a big move, otherwise it will show that he has a guilty conscience soon?
Encountered all kinds of bad things, the joy of the harvest in the inner treasury has disappeared completely.

In summer, although the weather is not as hot as before, the construction of several provincial homes is in full swing.

The material supplier shop affiliated to the Ministry of Internal Affairs has recently made a lot of money.

Because of the urgency of the matter, several families who built the provincial house were competing with each other to build it faster and better. Naturally, they invested crazily at all costs.

During this process, the price of high-quality materials for the construction of the Provincial Hospital naturally rose again and again, and they doubled or tripled, which is quite exaggerated.

That is to say, Xue's shop had sufficient supplies of materials, so the construction of Rongfu Provincial Courtyard was not affected much, while the rest of them spent a lot of money.

Although it is not as exaggerated as in the story of the Red Mansion, the cost of building a family home in Rongfu is not so exaggerated, but it is indispensable for a family to exceed 50 taels and approaching a million taels.

Adding up several companies, the cost of materials alone exceeded 150 million taels, not to mention that the rest of the cost was not small.

In just half a year, the current internal warehouse revenue exceeds 200 million vehicles.

These silver can do a lot of things in previous years.

Even river governance, which is the most costly, costs only a few million taels of silver a year.

For things like dredging canals and renovating official roads, a few hundred thousand taels is enough, but some things can be done well.

But at the moment, all the food is replaced by food, which is not enough to support the refugees in the north.

Don't mention the depression in my heart, but the cracks in the house happened to rain all night.

According to the news from the northwest frontier, the foreign races in the grassland outside the Great Wall are acting abnormally, and they are afraid that they will enter the frontier border this fall.

According to the specific information of the frontier fortress, the climate of the grassland outside the fortress in the past two years has been more abnormal than that in the hinterland of Dagan.

Either strong winds or hail, or unusually cold weather, in short, all kinds of weather are enough to wipe out a tribe quietly.

The foreign race outside the Great Wall who couldn't survive could only go south for food.

Hearing such news, the depression in my heart is even worse now. I have nothing to say except to ask the frontier troops to prepare well and prevent war.

In short, the situation in the past two years has been quite bad, making it hard to breathe today, and I don't know what happened?
The atmosphere in the court hall was quite dull, and this atmosphere spread throughout the capital, making the capital also a little depressing.

Officials are the most sensitive, and they are also very well informed, so they naturally know that the recent mood is quite bad.

Even the cabinet boss will not add trouble to the present under such circumstances.

Everyone is honest and safe, even the brothel Chuguan, which was once popular, has been a little deserted recently.

This made Jia Baoyu, the phoenix egg, a bit baffled. I don't understand why, recently, there have been fewer invitations to go to the Fengyue place.

The group of so-called friends he knew were regulars there.

But this guy's mentality is quite good, since no one invited him to play in the Chu Pavilion in the brothel, he just stayed in the mansion and played with the maids for fun.

I forgot to mention that Jia Baoyu, who is 15 years old this year, has successfully graduated from ethnology.

Not only his own request, the old lady and Mrs. Wang also secretly contributed to the flames, allowing him to leave the family to learn a lot of free time and space.

Jia Baoyu was very happy, and didn't have much nostalgia for ethnology.

He also knew that although the newly opened miscellaneous studies class was quite eye-catching, the mainstream of ethnology was after all civil and military imperial examinations, and he, an outstanding student of the miscellaneous studies class, was not very popular.

Anyway, he didn't have many friends in the ethnology school, so he naturally didn't care about graduating early and leaving the ethnology school, wouldn't it be nice to get together with the beautiful maids in the mansion?

Rong Mansion has not been affected by the external environment, so what is inside is still what it is, and it looks splendid and prosperous, so it is lively.

In particular, the whole theater troupe bought from Jiangnan set up a stage to perform in the back house of Rong Mansion every now and then, attracting the attention of the whole mansion, so it was so noisy...
