MTL - Rebirth Blessed Girl Takes Space To Flee-Chapter 299
Chapter 299
Li Yu solved a lot of practical difficulties for everyone. Some people want to go home and discuss it. Let the old lady come over and set up a stall. At least they can make some money. There are many people working here. You can still do small business with meals.
With the opportunity of field visits, many people were moved.
Family of the Noble also took the initiative to meet with Gu Lei, hoping to get a piece of the pie in the town, especially the pier.
Gu Lei quickly took the initiative, contacted several large chambers of commerce, paid him a deposit in advance, and built the town together, on the condition that the warehouse at the dock can be divided into two, and the store can be given a good location.
This is a transit town, there are docks, shops, and sales to other areas. It is inconvenient to not have such a place. If you detour from other places, you will have to pay more. Merchants will settle accounts and know whether it is good or bad.
Gu Lei got better and better as he worked harder, and Li Yu assisted him a little to remind him to avoid detours, and his work became better and better.
Several sons came to check several times, and they all returned satisfied.
His Royal Highness looked at Gu Lei's account book, and the account was very clear and careful. Seeing that the chamber of commerce has invested so much money, there will be money for the construction of towns and cities in the spring of next year.
Now the family and His Royal Highness know that Gu Lei and his wife are very capable, and Li Yu is also a capable person, but he is relatively low-key and unwilling to show it to others, respectful and understands the rules.
The wives of the powerful family got the instruction of the men at home, and offered an olive branch to Li Yu, hoping to have the opportunity to cooperate together, no one thinks too much money.
There are many descendants in a powerful family, and it is a consensus that the cultivation of descendants is inseparable from money.
Especially in the past few years in order to support His Highness the Night King, the elites have been plundered a lot, and they have no money in their pockets, and they just need money.
Li Yu is a money sledgehammer. No one else can compare with her in earning ability. Her brain turns too fast.
The Night King has breathed a sigh of relief in the past few years. He doesn't have to pay expensive annual offerings. In the past few years, there have been no major problems in the harvest. He has also repaired embankments, settled the people, and done a lot of practical things.
Several surrounding areas also openly supported the Night King and sought his protection. Now the army can move freely in the outskirts of Fandi.
These regions paid taxes to the Night King, but the Night King didn’t take the opportunity to blackmail him. Instead, he paid taxes according to the previous rules, and the taxes were not many, which were all at normal levels. These regions were very grateful, and instead sincerely voted for him.
Using this gentle annexation method, Ye Wang’s land has expanded into a large circle, and both sides of the river bank are his territory.
But the pressure also followed. There were many more refugees, and many people were still suffering.
And as his reputation slowly leaked out, many refugees who could not survive, and people who could do something, kept coming to join the Night King, and his pressure was increasing.
Being king and hegemony requires money, fighting wars also requires money, and raising soldiers requires money even more.
Now the Night King is all about making money, and he is about to be tortured insane.
The sons are going to do the shipping, and they are also making money for Lao Tzu, but this matter requires his son to be famous. In fact, he is preparing for the Night King to raise more money to raise soldiers and appease the people.
In case of war, we must prepare in advance.
This pier also has military considerations. It was chosen to build a town here after many investigations. Everyone decided to give it a go.
Several old generals strongly recommended Gu Lei to be this small town. Firstly, it is not conspicuous, and secondly, it can be said that we care about the younger generation of the Gu family and give them a chance.
Be good at explaining to the outside world, without making too much fanfare and making people overly nervous.
Generally, food and grass in wars are transported by boat, which is fast and relatively safe. There are bandits in the water, but there are not so many, far less than the number of bandits on land.
It is much more convenient to transport to and from the own wharf, so many considerations are chosen here.
Gu Lei hurried back to look for Li Yu at noon.
"Yu'er, change into your clothes and follow me. Your Highness and Princess want to see you alone."
"What happened?"
Grandpa Gu immediately stood up with a serious expression.
"Grandpa, don't be nervous. It's for shipping and workshops. I want Yu'er to help with it. Your Highness is too short of money. The treasury doesn't have enough money. You need to raise soldiers, take care of the people's tax exemption, and build land. money."
"His Royal Highness saw that Yu'er managed to make a few workshops and made a lot of money. He valued her ability, so he wanted her to do it together, and His Highness paid for it."
"What are you doing outside, push your wife out of the door, it's so easy to deal with open swords and dark arrows outside, you owe it."
Grandpa Gu stared, raised his hand and patted his grandson a few times.
"I didn't say it, His Highness specially asked my father-in-law and me to come back and discuss it with you."
"Let me ask you, if there is a storm outside that tries **** your wife, will you be able to protect her?"
Grandpa Gu asked with a serious face.
Of course he knew that the Gu family would turn over immediately after this matter was done, but this was the clan wife he had worked so hard to marry, and he would never agree to sacrifice Yu'er for others' benefit.
"Grandpa, you're thinking badly. It wasn't Yu'er who did it, but me. Yu'er was directing me from behind, and I will take my uncles to do it together."
Gu Lei quickly explained.
Grandpa Gu put down his hand.
"I'm going too, I don't trust you, let someone get you in."
Grandpa Gu is worried, if the two children are cheated, it doesn't matter if the grandson is a rough man, my granddaughter-in-law can't be wronged, and the hundreds of members of the Gu family will have to entrust Yu'er to rest assured.
"Okay, you changed your clothes and followed me. Your Highness is afraid that you won't want to go out, so he doesn't dare to disturb you. If you say you want to come, he will be happy before it's too late."
"Wait, I'm not for you, I'm for Yu'er, you are unreliable."
Grandpa Gu stared at his grandson and went into the house to change clothes.
Li Yu then spoke, "What did my father say, what conditions have been changed, I am not happy to do it for nothing."
"It can't be done in vain. It has given the Li family and the Gu family a lot of benefits. Your uncles have been promoted, and they can be considered to have a firm foothold in the army. The power of the Sun family is under the control of the father-in-law. This matter is settled, and the father-in-law will keep his promise in the world." , Half of the country in the army is decided by my old father-in-law."
Gu Lei explained the stakes to his daughter-in-law, this is also for the father-in-law and for the two families to move forward more steadily.
"Okay, I'm going to change clothes."
Li Yu went back to his room and changed into the clothes he had seen before. He combed his hair again and dressed up in a dignified and elegant way. He put on a headdress before helping his grandfather to go out together.
Grandpa Gu sat in the carriage and asked his grandson, "Didn't you miss this before?"
"Afraid that you would not agree, Your Highness will continue to observe, but I didn't expect Yu'er to do such a good job, it is really eye-catching, and I am worried that someone in the family will have bad intentions, so I took the initiative to talk to me and my father-in-law, and wanted me to come back to persuade you .”
Gu Lei finally explained.
This small town has already achieved preliminary results. Anyone with vision has seen the prospect and potential. It will rise in the beginning of spring, and it will be of great importance in less than three years. This wave of Gu Lei's credit has already been accumulated.
"Yu'er, if you don't want to do it, don't worry about it. Don't sacrifice your own interests for others. You must protect yourself before you can protect others. Always remember this."
Grandpa Gu specially told his granddaughter-in-law.
"yes."
Li Yu smiled happily.
