Steel Dynasty - Chapter 782

[Chapter 781 Candy]

In the early morning, Xiao Ming was woken up by Xiao Yi who was crying.

The little guy is now over a year old and can walk on his own. Although he cannot speak yet, he can still speak a few simple words.

“If you make a fuss, I hope you wake up your father.” Fei Yue’er had already gotten up and was scolding Xiao Yi with a hint of pampering.

After stretching, Xiao Ming got off the bed and walked up to Xiao Yi with a hint of a father’s smile on his face.

Although he is an emperor, he is also a human being and has his own emotions and desires, but he is just sometimes better at hiding them than ordinary people.

Whenever he is in the dormitory, Xiao Ming will put down his pretense and become a real father. Xiao Yi is his son. He will give him everything he can teach him so that he will not be fooled by this barbaric and ignorant man. around the era.

“What’s wrong? Come on, let Father hug you.”

Xiao Ming picked up Xiao Yi, who was sitting on the ground and crying. Only then did he notice that he was holding a piece of candy tightly in his hand.

Fei Yue’er looked particularly happy at this time. They were a family in this situation. She said: “It’s not green radish yet. When I came here yesterday, I brought a handful of candies. Xiao Yi fell in love with it after eating it. In the morning He wanted to eat sweets when he got up. “

Xiao Ming couldn’t help laughing when he heard this, and he said: “Let him eat less of this candy, otherwise he will cry out like a toothache twice in three days.”

“No, Your Majesty. I specifically told you that Lu Luo can’t help but don’t let Yi’er get hurt,” Fei Yue’er said with a smile.

Xiao Yi lay on Xiao Ming’s shoulder, picked up the candy on his hand and licked it while the two were talking.

Xiao Ming smirked and took the candy from Xiao Yi’s hand. The little guy was startled for a moment, and then started to cry.

Fei Yue’er shook her head helplessly. While she felt sorry for Xiao Yi, she also knew not to spoil Xiao Yi. She didn’t want to pamper Xiao Yi and become the next former prince.

The two of them had a good rapport, and after coaxing Xiao Yi for a while, the little guy fell asleep lying on Xiao Ming’s body after crying.

At this time, Xiao Ming put Xiao Yi on the bed, took the candy and Fei Yue’er and left the dormitory.

Playing with the round, light yellow and transparent candy in his hand, Xiao Ming suddenly remembered the hard candies that cost a penny when he was a child.

I never thought that Qingzhou would be able to produce this kind of candy in the blink of an eye.

“How are the sales of this kind of candy in Qingzhou now?” Xiao Ming asked. Although the method was passed down by him, he has never paid attention to the production of candy. After all, compared to the important matters of the family and the country, this is just a small matter.

“Luluo said that this kind of candy is very popular in Qingzhou. Eight sugar-making workshops have been built. Now this candy is not only sold in Qingzhou, but also sold to other states and counties, and even to the feudal kingdom of the King of Chu. It is really popular. These businessmen have made a lot of money.”

Xiao Ming nodded. The ultimate expression of industry is to enrich materials, and he is also using the technology and materials at hand to increase the amount of materials for Dayu as much as possible.

In this way, not only will the people’s food, clothing, housing and transportation become richer, but also some people who enter Qingzhou will get job opportunities because of the emergence of the candy workshop.

After chatting with Fei Yue’er for a while, Xiao Ming had breakfast and then left the camp and headed south of the city.

Unknowingly, the construction of the palace in the south of the city has taken almost two years. According to the current progress, it will be ready for move-in in one month.

Today he is going to see if the palace is ready?

After leaving the carriage house, Qian Dafu was already waiting outside the door. He got on the carriage and under the protection of the guards, he went all the way to the palace in Qingzhou.

In fact, for Xiao Ming, the ideal capital city is Youzhou, but considering the development of Qingzhou, he still built the palace here.

The reason is very simple. Many merchants from the Chongqing Kingdom come here because they are rushing to the capital. If he goes to Youzhou, the merchants will definitely migrate in large numbers, which will definitely cause a major blow to Qingzhou, which is still developing.

Therefore, he will not move the capital to Youzhou until Qingzhou has established a mature industrial and commercial system, unless Qingzhou’s industry and commerce are saturated.

At that time, he will build his own palace in Youzhou. At the same time, because of the capital effect, Youzhou’s industry and commerce will also develop.

Twenty minutes later, the carriage stopped in the south of the city. The first thing Xiao Ming saw when he came down was the red wall of the outer palace.

The city wall is five hundred meters long from east to west and one thousand meters long from north to south, enveloping the entire imperial city. At this time, symbolic artillery has been placed on the city wall.

Rubbing the surface of the city wall, Xiao Ming could feel the sand on the surface. The outer palace wall was made of red bricks, with a layer of cement on the outside, and finally red paint. The sand was exactly what cement was made of.

Entering the palace gate is the imperial city.

There is still a space between the outer palace and the palace. Many courtyards were built in this distance, at least more than a hundred from south to north and from west to east.

These courtyards are the official offices of officials in the capital. From now on, officials will all work under Xiao Ming’s nose.

After walking two hundred meters, they arrived at the palace. At this time, Xiao Ming saw a stone bridge in front of him. The top of each pillar on the stone bridge was shaped like a unicorn, and the surface was paved with bluestone slabs.

Across the stone bridge is a wide square. At the end of the square, a building with red tiles and yellow walls rises from the ground. It is the Zhengda Guangming Hall that will be used in the future.

At this time, Fiji was directing the eunuchs and maids to decorate the Zhengdaguangming Hall.

“Your Majesty, this palace will be ready in about ten days. Then the Emperor and Queen will not have to squeeze in the row.” Fiji said with a smile.

Xiao Ming glanced at the Zhengda Guangming Hall and nodded with satisfaction. Everything needed was now in place, and the dragon chair was high up.

“Mr. Fei Ge has taken all the trouble. The layout of this palace still needs to be arranged by Mr. Fei Ge himself.” Xiao Ming said with a smile. The layout of the Royal Palace of the Chongqing Kingdom has always been very particular.

Now in the DPRK, only Fiji is proficient, so he let Fiji take charge so as not to be criticized at any time. He does not need to be unconventional on some innocuous issues.

“This is the duty of the old minister.” Fiji bowed.

Xiao Ming showed a smile. As he and Fiji walked towards the inner palace, he asked: “By the way, have you conveyed the issue of the household registration system of the people of Chongqing to other states and counties?”

“Back to the emperor, it’s already It has been passed down. From now on, the people of Dayu Kingdom only need to hold their household registration and they can freely settle in the counties and prefectures of Dayu Kingdom.” Fiji

paused and said, “Since this decree was passed down, the people of Qingzhou Prefecture will be able to settle down freely.

There are many people from outside entering Qingzhou Prefecture, and now the workshop has no worries about recruiting people. “

“That’s what I’m doing. If everyone is destined to die in one place, the industry and commerce of Great Yu will be ruined. Law development.”
