Chapter 18
To be honest, Zhu Xi really missed Xu Miaoyun a little bit.

He also hopes that there is someone around him to talk to.

It's not like now, where every day is just business in addition to official duties.

As a prince, I am as busy as an emperor.

It should be said that he may be busy with Zhu Yuanzhang.

Basically, I have no free time every day. Whenever I have time, I have to go to various places to inspect, especially now that the dam has begun to be built, and many open spaces in Panyu County have begun to set up sheds to engage in production, such as cement, lime, etc. There is steel.

The conditions are tough.

All I can say is, let’s work together for a better tomorrow.

This is Zhu Xiyou's construction system, and those technologies don't need to spend time on research and development.

As a result, a month later, Panyu County was already small.

Dams were built.

It was also when the power plant started operating.

Then, various workshops sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and a small part of them were built.

Of course, most of these workshops still rely on building sheds to operate.

The former village heads have also changed, and now they are all the bosses of major workshops. In addition, Zhu Fang selected two more people and asked them to go to sea and inquire about the situation of Huang Wanfu and Luo Hang.

In terms of points, Zhu Xi's system points have accumulated to [-] points.

But it's not enough.

Because, in order to achieve better development, Zhu Xi directly spent all his points to purchase two construction quick scrolls.

This thing is really expensive.

Eight thousand points per ticket.

After purchasing, Zhu Xiang had one thousand points left.

However, this thing is really useful.

Zhu Xi used the scrolls to build a large steelmaking plant and a large chemical plant.

It is precisely because of these two factories that the development speed of Panyu County has changed a little in five days and a big change in ten days.

In addition, Zhu Xi is also willing to spend money.

This is already the third month since he came to Lingnan.

In three months, Zhu Ping directly poured in 100 million taels of silver.

The 40 taels of cash traded with Shen Sen was also thrown in by Zhu Xi.

However, most of the money went into the pockets of the people.

Because of this, Zhu Ping has now ordered that the focus of construction be shifted to residential areas. Of course, roads still need to be built. Now cement roads have been built out of Panyu County and are under construction in the direction of Dongguan County and Xin'an County.

Under Zhu Fang's order, the Construction Bureau transferred half of the more than 1 road construction troops back to Panyu County to build residential communities.

In addition, many people also started farming in Panyu County.

Mr. Yuan’s rice was a great success.

The harvest is expected to be several times that of previous varieties of rice. This has also led to many women in the family to start farming while their men are busy. In addition, all the land has been taken over by Zhu Cang, so these people have started farming. Purchased from Zhu Xiang's hands.

However, Zhu Xi had a trick here. He found the county magistrate of Huaxian County. After some discussions, a large number of farmers went to Huaxian County to find local people to buy their fields. The poor people of Huaxian County were unprepared. , was stunned by the large amount of real money, and many people chose to sell their land, so Zhu Fengshun led the major villages in Jianghua County to receive the accounts without any blood.

Now Zhu Feng has gathered the strength of four counties and a population of more than 20 to build Huaxian County with all his strength.At the same time, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes were handed over to Mr. Yuan for cultivation, and the varieties were improved and began to be planted by farmers in Hua County.

At this time, Zhu Xi began to look at the entire Lingnan area.

Because the development speed of Panyu County was very impressive, completely exceeding his expectations, Zhu Ping naturally had to relax his vision. However, he did not rush forward, but took it step by step.

First of all, he directly ordered the bosses of major textile workshops to send merchants to various places except the four counties to purchase silkworm cocoons, and the price was twice as high as the previous cabbage price!
In this way, the enthusiasm of local people was greatly mobilized to plant mulberry and raise silkworms.

At the same time, it can also vigorously develop the textile industry that Zhu Ping is currently focusing on in Panyu County... No way, Shen Sen's business is really big. Starting from this month, he has already asked for 50 pieces of silk every month.

Zhu Fang estimated that he had monopolized the entire Ming Dynasty's silk business.

Otherwise, the cargo throughput would be too scary.

In fact, Zhu Xi really guessed it.

Shen Sen's silk is not only sold in Daming, he owns only a few caravans on the Silk Road, and Daming's silk is hard currency all over the world, which makes Shen Sen's demand for goods very huge.

And Zhu Xi could just meet his needs.

In addition, Dudat's side is also increasing orders.

Therefore, even if the entire Lingnan people are planting mulberry and raising silkworms, Zhu Xiang can still afford it.

What's more, where is this?

You know, the waterways in the South and West Oceans have not been completely opened yet!

The textile industry still has very bright prospects.

It is also a good thing that Zhu Ping is planning ahead now.

In autumn, many silkworm cocoons can be purchased from all over Lingnan.

Now, all the silkworm cocoons from each family have been purchased, and the excess grain has been collected at high prices, giving relief to the people who have been living in poverty for a long time.

At most, Zhu Xiang will suffer a little loss.

You can’t lose too much.

Because, under Zhu Ping's control, everyone bears the risks together, and those village heads who have become bosses, but are actually still at the mercy of Zhu Ping, have also reduced some of their benefits.

In addition, they still have to pay back the money they owe Zhu Ping every month.

The money was, of course, the construction fees Zhu Xi owed when he set up a workshop for them.

Everyone owes Zhu Xing 10,000+ taels, so that Zhu Xing can let the real money flow back and avoid his own collapse.

Just like that, time entered April.

On this day, in the palace in Jinling City, an old eunuch came to Queen Ma's palace with two letters in his hand. After handing in the letters, he left immediately. After a while, Queen Ma took Xu Miaoyun's hand and walked out. Li also said: "You kid, ever since that incident, you have been hiding everything in your heart, like a dull gourd. I can't even ask you questions, and I can't hear a word of your inner thoughts... What's going on?"

"Queen, this is Eunuch Liu. The letter just sent is from...Lingnan." The palace maid responded.

"Lingnan?"

Queen Ma immediately became energetic and said happily: "This brat finally remembered his mother?"

But after a moment, she immediately turned serious again.

After receiving the letter, Empress Ma glanced at Xu Miaoyun, who was still lowering her head, and deliberately cursed: "This unworthy person has the nerve to write back? Hey... Miaoyun, he even wrote to you."

The next moment, Xu Miaoyun looked up.

Looking at the letter handed over by Queen Ma, she hesitated for a moment.
