Quick Transmigration: After becoming beautiful, I am numb

Chapter 702

In the previous life, Gu Qing and Mu Xiu were absolutely like crouching dragons and phoenixes.

Both of them are "ugly monsters" in the eyes of the world.

Of course, Gu Qing is really ugly, but Mu Xiu was more accidentally injured by national prejudice.

He himself is beautiful, but it is a pity that his beauty does not fit into this era, let alone allow him to gain a foothold in the circles of the powerful.

In her previous life, Mu Xiu was also Gu Yi's student.

Only that time, Gu Qing did not choose to stay in the Southern Dynasty, but followed his parents to the Northern Dynasty.

As the beloved and guilty legitimate daughter of Gu Yi and his wife, she naturally had many contacts with Mu Xiu, their direct disciple.

Gu Qing did not regard Mu Xiu as "the same kind", let alone the resonance of "the same people who have fallen in the end of the world".

Because Gu Qing knew that she was different from Mu Xiu.

At best, Mu Xiu is just different from the people of the Celestial Dynasty, not really ugly.

Gu Qing paid more attention to Mu Xiu's talents.

As for Mu Xiu, it seemed that he could find some "comfort" in Gu Qing.

They are all ridiculed and disgusted by the world. Gu Qing is noble, smart and eager to learn.

His family background, status, talents, etc. all far surpassed Mu Xiu's.

When Mu Xiu and Gu Qing were in the same boat, he looked up to her again.

The friendship from the same family, the "similar" situation... too many reasons made Mu Xiu become Gu Qing's helper.

Later, Gu Qing married Yu Wenheng, and Mu Xiu became Yu Wenheng's right-hand man logically.

After the world was unified, Mu Xiu received the title he deserved based on his merits.

...Mu Xiu has always been a staunch Queen Party and Queen Mother Party.

Gu Qing and this senior brother have been "a monarch and his ministers get along" for decades.

After being reborn, Gu Qingcheng abandoned everything in his previous life, and Mu Xiu's fate also changed.

He abandoned everything in the Northern Dynasty, and followed Gu Yi to Lingnan.

The former partner is about to reappear. Gu Qingcheng, who has traveled through the mission world for thousands of years, can't remember his face for a while.

I just vaguely remember that he was very tall and very handsome.

According to later generations, that is a proper half-blood prince.

Of course, Gu Qingcheng, who has become beautiful, can say something like Versailles: looks are not important.

What she values ​​​​is always the core of a person.

Mu Xiu? !
Hmm, my chosen worker!
Gu Qingcheng thought of Mu Xiu's outstanding talent in the previous life, and the beautiful Danfeng's eyes were shining brightly.

She couldn't wait to see Mu Xiu.

With his joining, his great cause will be smoother.

Gu Heng: ...

Hey, there’s something wrong with my granddaughter’s eyes.

She seems to be very interested in Mu Xiu.

This is different from what he imagined!
"Forget it! Ah Qing has never been a superficial person."

"She should also know that Mu Xiu is not an ordinary student, even for Ah Yi's sake, she will treat Mu Xiu well."

That's enough!
……

After discussing with each other, the grandfather and grandson began to count the days to wait for the return of the Gu family.

Half a month later, the treasure ship finally arrived in Guangcheng.

Gu Qingcheng has built the third Gu Clan Wu Fort in Guangcheng.

Just outside Guangcheng, it stands like a new city.

Counting the time, the treasure ship arrived in the past few days, and Gu Qingcheng arrived at the beach early.

I found a small fishing village, repaired it a little, and settled down temporarily.

Although Gu Qingcheng came to the beach to meet her parents and family members, she did not relax her official duties.

Several prefectures and counties in the South of the Five Ridges have already been included in the territory of the Gu family. Even if one or two (such as Guangcheng) still belong to Chen Duan in name, the actual controller has long been Gu Qingcheng.

Gu Qingcheng should pay attention to the management, construction, and people's livelihood of these states and counties.

In addition, her sugar base in Lingnan is also steadily expanding.

From one sugarcane garden at the beginning, it has developed to several now.

In addition to sugarcane gardens, there are also salt fields and farms.

Champa rice, which has a short maturity cycle, has also been domesticated for three or four rounds, and its performance is now increasingly stable.

Gu Qingcheng promoted it in several states and counties under his jurisdiction.

Zhancheng rice can be harvested twice a year, but in the special climate environment of Lingnan, it is against the sky and it can be harvested three times a year.

Of course, too frequent planting will result in insufficient soil fertility.

Gu Qingcheng ordered people to start developing soil fertilizer.

With the improvement of her character value, she can remember more and more "common sense" of the mission world.

And in her vast knowledge base, there are records about soil fertilizers.

Two types of soil chemical fertilizers, soil ammonia and soil sulfuric acid, could be made in this ancient time without any industrialization.

Gu Qingcheng is not alone, there is the entire Gu family behind her.

Therefore, if she has any "creative ideas", she only needs to find a trustworthy person, explain the formula and order, and after a while, she can get the finished product.

Gu Qingcheng herself is an ancient native, and she never underestimated the wisdom of their ancients.

All inventions and creations in history were also developed by generations of ancient people.

Gu Qingcheng now only needs to provide an inspiration, point out a direction, and make a request, and her skilled craftsmen can create miracles.

Soil fertilizer is available.

It not only solves the problem of insufficient land, but also increases production.

And Gu Qingcheng's surprise didn't stop there——

When craftsmen used slaked lime to prepare soil fertilizers, they unexpectedly obtained calcium silicate.

Well, this is the prototype of cement.

Of course, Gu Qingcheng, who just came out of the last world, still has the "instinct" of a science student.

Her common sense told her that in ancient times, it was simply unrealistic to get real cement.

The raw materials can be found, and the process is not complicated, but only one item can negate everything - high temperature!
Cement needs to be calcined at high temperatures.

In ancient times, there were also high-temperature furnaces that could achieve small-scale calcination, but it was simply impossible to produce large quantities of finished products.

"...Well, in fact, this is the same principle as glass."

Gu Qingcheng once thought so.

In ancient times, it was possible to make flat and smooth large pieces of glass.

However, mass production cannot be done.

This requires a complete industrial base!

So is cement.

"What a pity! If cement can be calcined, everything can be done whether it is paving roads, repairing dams, or laying cross-sea bridges!"

Among other things, just paving roads and repairing dams can be related to the national economy and people's livelihood of the dynasty.

Gu Qingcheng has too much "common sense" that is beyond this era, but is restricted by reality and cannot realize it.

"It doesn't matter! I still have decades."

Everything, take your time!
Gu Qingcheng firmly believes that he can find a smooth path and change the whole world!

……

"Here we come! San Niang! The treasure ship is coming!"

On this day, Gu Qingcheng was handling official business at his temporary residence in the small fishing village.

Chen Duan is still "training" along the river, with an army of tens of thousands, the food and grass that needs to be consumed is absolutely huge.

Gu Qingcheng, as Chen Duan and his subordinates identified as Liang Wangxian's internal assistant, naturally had to do his best to support him.

Gu Qingcheng has to mobilize grain and grass from various farms every month, and transport it to the "front line" by sea.

Sea transportation is the sea transportation line opened by Gu Qingcheng. Although it is convenient, it is indeed expensive.

Moreover, there are great risks, as well as seasonality.

For example, in summer, when hurricanes frequently occur, the sea is even more dangerous.

Even if there is no hurricane, it is just an ordinary storm, which is enough to bump the ship by sea.

The safest and most economical way is land transportation.

But Wuling is like a huge moat, lying between Lingnan and the Central Plains.

If it can be directly drilled through, and the curve distance can be changed into a straight line distance, the distance between Lingnan and the Central Plains can be shortened!

And this is a huge project.

money!people!
Not only is it necessary, but as much as possible.

Gu Qingcheng's stall is too big. Although there are many members of the Gu clan to help, it is still not enough!
It is impossible for one person to accomplish great things.

Gu Qingcheng has already found herself a great general who can charge forward, and she still needs more "assistants".

Mu Xiu!

Just on the sea ship, about to arrive in Guangcheng!

When Gu Qingcheng handles trivial official duties, he always thinks of this capable minister who shined brilliantly in the court in his previous life.

Her anticipation for the treasure ship became more and more intense.

Of course, Gu Qingcheng still wants to see his parents, brothers and sisters-in-law, and even his nephews——

Gu Yi and others: ... Hehe, do you think we believe it or not?
Finally, the few members of the Gu family who were watching the movement of the sea all the time, squatting on the beach, finally saw a huge shadow slowly approaching from the other side of the sea.

They were so excited that they only filmed one person running to the small fishing village to report the news, while the others continued to stay at the beach.

"The treasure ship is coming?"

Hearing this, Gu Qingcheng put down the silk book in her hand and stood up quickly.

He walked quickly to the door, and put on the wooden clogs under the corridor, served by a maidservant.

Da da da, the wooden clogs stepped on the bluestone floor, making a slight sound.

The red skirt gently slid across the ground, rippling slightly.

The accessories around her waist were exquisite and gorgeous, swaying slightly with the hem of the skirt, but making no sound.

This is how a noble lady from aristocratic families behaves. Although she moves in a hurry, she can still keep her hairpins from moving and her accessories from making any noise.

Gu Qingcheng eagerly came to the beach and saw a huge shadow approaching from far away.

"Lang Jun, is that Ah Qing?"

"It's been nine years. We've been apart for so long. I don't know what A Qing looks like anymore!"

On the deck, Gu Yi and Xiao's couple stood leaning on the railing. They looked at the shore and saw a red slender figure.

Ah Qing!

That must be their daughter Aqing!
"Father said, Ah Qing seems to be more adapted to the environment in Lingnan—" His appearance has completely grown.

Gu Yi himself couldn't say the second half of the sentence.

Because according to his IQ and knowledge, he doesn't believe in the nonsense of "good Fengshui, long blooming".

But it happened that these words were said by his own father.

This is -

"Father, mother, it's Ah Qing! She's waving at us!"

Gu Yi's eldest son, second son, etc. were all standing on the deck, seeing the little figure on the shore, they couldn't help being excited.

As for the people in Gu Ji's room, except for Mr. Xie, everyone else was also very happy.

Mu Xiu hid in the crowd, observing carefully.

Then, as the treasure ship docked, he saw a stunning beauty...

　Ahem, when writing about Mu Xiu, I always automatically bring in Fei Xiang’s face.He was really handsome when he was young.Even now that I’m old, it still tastes great!
