Qi Shan came to inquire about what he wanted the three Huangzhuangs for. He suspected that the emperor was short of money, so he asked Fan Zijin to realize the three Huangzhuangs.

Everyone knows that the national treasury is short of money, and now it is approaching the new year's spring plowing. It is time to use the money. Generally, Huangzhuang is not only given to the children of the royal family, but also handed over to the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Fan Zijin suddenly took the land deed away. , he couldn't help but be suspicious.

If the guess came true, he felt that he would stop him whatever he said. This Huangzhuang is the face of the royal family, how can it be used to realize it?

Fan Zijin heard Qi Shan's meaning, rolled his eyes, and said: "Shi Bo looks down on me, Fan Zijin too much, can I sell the emperor's Huangzhuang? If the treasury is short of money, my business will support it."

Qi Shan hesitated and said, "Then what are you doing with the land deed?"

"Of course there are other uses, so don't ask, this matter is approved by the emperor." Fan Zijin served tea to see off the guests.

Qi Shan hesitated for a while, but still didn't have the guts to ask Qi Xiuyuan. If you want to blame, you can blame Qi Feng for doing too much back then, and the Qi family has always turned a blind eye to the two brothers. With the children of the Qi clan, they didn't dare to enter the palace to ask for favors. Didn't they see that the emperor's two concubines kept shrinking their necks to live their lives and never got a job?

Qi Shan left hesitantly, and within two days, the emperor officially decreed to bestow a Huangzhuang in Jiangnan and Baoding to Mu Yangling, thanking her for her outstanding contribution to the royal family.

Only then did everyone know that the emperor took back the cattle farm and nursery in Beidi and put them under the royal family's management.

Whether it is a cattle farm or a nursery, from its establishment to the present, there have been shadows of the emperor and King Rong standing behind it, but the emperor did not take it back to the court, but to the royal family, which made everyone unacceptable.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs never gets involved in this kind of thing, and the court should be responsible for this kind of thing.

Regardless of whether it is a cattle farm or a nursery, the interests involved in the latter are not small, so many officials who are interested in this have offered discounts.

The officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were also shocked, and wanted to take the errand into their own hands.

Sitting at home, Fan Zijin sneered when he saw this. The emperor said that it was received by the royal family, not the Ministry of Internal Affairs, nor the imperial family. How many people are there in the royal family now?

Those people can't understand the meaning even after hearing an imperial decree.

The emperor obviously didn't expect that everyone couldn't even understand the imperial decree. He even found the imperial decree and read it carefully from top to bottom. The adjective is a little more subtle, and the others are clearly written, which can also distort the holy meaning!

If it's not your fault, it's someone else's fault.

Seeing his downcast face, the queen smiled and said, "It's inevitable. After all, there has never been a royal family in all dynasties that has deliberately classified certain things as royal management. It was either handed over to the court or the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

Qi Xiuyuan snorted coldly, "I think they didn't pay attention because they were driven by interests, right? Anyone can build a cattle farm, but only the royal family can run a nursery. If they want to run it, they can build one themselves. It worked out pretty well.”

Qi Xiuyuan didn't bother to watch them toss, and directly ordered them to read "Shuowen Jiezi" carefully.

He also formally ordered Mu Yangling to take charge of the two places, telling them clearly that anyone can build a cattle farm, but they are not allowed to enclose the land to harm the interests of the common people. It can only be built with the consent of the royal family.

The chaotic fight subsided immediately. Although the officials of the DPRK and China felt sorry, they had no objection, because this was Mu Yangling's dowry in the first place, and she could manage it.

On the side of the Qi clan, everyone's thoughts are a little subtle. Many old people and children in the clan approached the patriarch Qi Shan and asked, "Didn't you say that they were exchanged for two Dahuangzhuang? Then this thing belongs to our Qi clan." , how can you let someone with a foreign surname take care of it?"

"Yes, yes, the children of the clan don't study well, so it's fine if they can't pass the imperial examination to become an official. They can still manage the cattle farm and the nursery."

"You see, the children of our Qi family occupy only a few places in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there are a large group of children who are unemployed at home. We must find something for them to do."

Qi Shanneng still sat in the position of patriarch after Qi Xiuyuan ascended the throne, relying on Qi Xiuyuan's support, so he knew which thoughts he could have and which things he could never touch. At this moment, he yelled angrily at several people: "The foreign surname People? The person you are talking about has a foreign surname followed the emperor and King Rong all the way to conquer the country, and gave birth to the eldest son of King Rong, you stand in front of the emperor and see if he recognizes you or the Qi Mu family!"

"I said that these two belong to the royal family, not the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and not the clan!" Qi Shan stared at them and said, "Are you from the royal family? Are you? Why don't you just stay aside, let alone you," Qi Shan said. Pointing to the southwest, he snorted coldly: "Those two, as long as the emperor doesn't let go, they are not considered royal family, just go back and stay honestly, if you want a good position, go back and study for the imperial examination by yourself, if not, just be honest Squat down, whenever there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it will be on top!"

Qi Shan saw that some people were still not convinced, so he sneered and said: "If you are not convinced, you can pass your son to the palace to ask for an audience. Speaking of which, the emperor is still your brother."

Everyone lowered their heads timidly. The young people who were in their twenties bullied Qi Haoran when they were young, especially the young people who were about 30 years old. They beat the emperor together when they were young. Although they were young at that time, The emperor would not care about fighting with them, but at that time they were not just fighting. When bullying him, they could say whatever was unpleasant. They were not sure whether the emperor remembered this. Who would dare to go to the palace to find the emperor?

Mu Yangling's actions were also fast. Almost as soon as he received the imperial decree, he notified Mu Bowen and Niuchang, officially hung up the sign of the royal family, and then publicized it in the North, so that Mu Bowen and Jingzhao Prefecture of Xingzhou Prefecture He contacted the prefect to open two small kindergartens on a trial basis in the two places. Except for the brand change, the people and rules inside have not changed.

After two days of worrying, the children and employees were relieved to see that everything was as usual.

Because the spring plowing was about to begin, Mu Yangling first dispatched nearly 3,000 cattle to distribute to the various prefectures. Except for Jingzhao, Hanzhong and Xingzhou prefectures, the Tongchuan prefecture benefited the most.

Mu Yangling told Qi Xiuyuan that there are limited cattle in the cattle farm, and they can only be pushed slowly from north to south, and it is impossible to lead them to the south at once.

Qi Xiuyuan also understood this truth, suppressed his impatience and let Mu Yangling make up his own mind.

The cows in the cattle farm are not given to the local government for free. They have to exchange things or pay money, or they can lease them in the form of lease. Unlike the previous leases that were only available during busy farming seasons, this time the cattle farm directly contacted the local officials. , Lease cattle to them for a period ranging from two to five years. After the period expires, they can repay the rent with grain, money or calves. Calculated, they only need to pay two buckets of rice a year, which is ridiculously cheap.

However, in order to prevent local officials from using cattle for profit, they have strict regulations on the whereabouts of cattle. They must limit the use of cattle to poor farmers’ homes as much as possible. up.

It's not that Mu Yangling discriminated against them, but that Qi Xiuyuan's purpose of expanding the cattle farm was originally for the poor peasants. If the cattle were rented out to the landlords again, why did she work so hard?
