Quick Wear: Another day of being criticized for falling in love at first sight

Chapter 777: The Hunter Lady is the Savior of the Powerful Official 38

Xiao Yunzhou pulled out the mulberry paper from the interlayer, on which was a picture of a waterwheel with interlaced gears.

“Thirty counties downstream are affected by the disaster and their livelihoods can be guaranteed by having them participate in dam construction and distributing half a bushel of millet every day.

And I have checked, the Gao family owns twenty quarries. They will definitely fight desperately for this opportunity to revive their family.

When the time comes, we will ask them to voluntarily undertake the supply of stones, and use the prince's great kindness to participate in the management of the river bank as an excuse to settle with the Gao family at 70% of the market price.

While it demonstrates the emperor's favor and seemingly gives up some of the reputation to the crown prince, it can also crush the Gao family's cash flow on this basis."

Zhao Jiayu suddenly understood.

"So, Yunzhou, you mean to make the Gao family lose money in the stone supply?"

"more than."

This was already the second time Xiao Yunzhou had said this. Zhao Jiayu felt a surge of excitement in his heart. He finally had the chance to suppress these bastards.

What his father said was wrong. He was afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind, which would eventually destroy the foundation of their Dachen. This would bring shame to their ancestors and make them feel ashamed of their Zhao family's ancestors.

"Diverting river water for irrigation requires digging ditches thousands of miles long. I've already calculated that the Gao family's last tenant fields are right along the canal route."

Xiao Yunzhou raised his eyes and saw his Miaomiao throwing a dead body into the fire outside the curtain. Her movements were neat and neat, and so adorable.

"We just need someone to persuade some of the Gao family members who are not in their right minds, or maybe even persuasion is not necessary.

After the canal is completed, the tenant fields will be promoted to good farmland in the eyes of many people. At that time, the tenants of the Gao family will surely feel resentful, which will shake their foundation.

Of course, there is still a lot of room for follow-up operations.

Isn't it more fun to cut meat with a dull knife?"

When Xiao Yunzhou thought of his family, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

The Gao family used to be a wealthy and powerful family. Even if the people in charge now no longer have the ability of the original Gao family members, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.

It’s a pity that the prince’s love is cheaper than grass. Just when something happened to the Gao family, the prince decided to cut off his arm to survive.

However, he didn't know that there was a heart between these arms. If the Gao family turned against him, it would be enough to cost the prince half his life.

“By the way, Brother Jiayu, these things are what you think, and have nothing to do with me.

I don’t want Miaomiao to know all my calculations, I just want her to cherish me…”

As Xiao Yunzhou was speaking, Miaomiao turned around and looked towards the carriage.

There was a curtain between them, and Xiao Yunzhou and Zhao Jiayu could only see the outlines of the outside. However, the sky outside was clear, but the inside of the carriage was a little dim. Miaomiao looked inside the curtain, but could not see clearly at all.

"Don't look at her twice. She's mine. She's mine only."

Xiao Yunzhou was not prepared to be unusually respectful just because Zhao Jiayu was the third prince or even the future emperor. There was no need for such affection between men.

If Zhao Jiayu is really a petty person, Xiao Yunzhou can also be prepared to cause some trouble and take the position himself.

"You have really changed. If Aunt Xiao were still here, she would definitely be very pleased. She was afraid that you wouldn't even be able to find a daughter-in-law for her in the future."

Zhao Jiayu thought of the beautiful woman at that time and laughed about his troubles with his mother, but he never thought that everything would change in just a few years.

On the contrary, his half-brother has transformed from an indifferent boy into a complete love-brained person, and the girl doesn't seem to like him at all.

"No, why don't you just say it? Do you have a quirk in calling each other brother and sister?"

Zhao Jiayu was indeed a playboy, and subconsciously had wrong thoughts.

This habit reminded him of things he shouldn't have thought of, like the two sons of a certain Shangshu family, where the elder married the younger's fiancée, and the younger married the elder's...

The most bizarre thing is that the relationship between the two parties seems to be very harmonious, so harmonious that it seems as if it was meant to be.

“Brother Jiayu, don’t compare me with those crazy people.

I'm just afraid that she will run away. If I didn't stay by her side as her younger brother, I'm afraid she would have disappeared without a trace long ago.

She is an orphan, and to her, I may just be a trouble.

When Brother Jiayu becomes emperor, he can help us issue an imperial decree to get married.

By then, with the marriage granted and our years of relationship as a foundation, she won't choose anyone else."

A hint of paranoia and greed flashed in Xiao Yunzhou's eyes, which made Zhao Jiayu subconsciously touch his goose bumps.

Sure enough, once a person experiences a little setback, he may go astray in a direction that others would never have thought of before.

After that, Xiao Yunzhou briefly told Zhao Jiayu about his life in the past few years, and also said that he had taken the Tongshi exam again in just one year.

"So you mean Enko?"

In the Kingdom of Dachen, if there was any earth-shattering happy event, such as the emperor's wedding, coronation to the throne, etc., or even any highlight moment in the strategy of governing the country, an imperial examination might be carried out in that year.

"Yes, that's Enke. At the normal pace, I still need at least seven or eight years. I can't afford to wait that long, and neither can you. So, we have to create opportunities for ourselves.

It's not just me, I also need to win over some people. When the time comes, I will tell you which talents are available. But the most important thing now is that you, the seriously injured prince, return to the palace as soon as possible.

Afterwards, Your Majesty will certainly be reluctant to punish the prince, and may even pretend to be ignorant even though he knows the truth. But it doesn't matter, you will also feel his guilt.

At that time, you will hand over this river management book to His Majesty, and then slowly move the Gao family into it. If you do as we say, His Majesty will only increase the weight on your scale.

Even if the prince gains a little bit of fame, in the eyes of Your Majesty, it is given by you, it is you.

If the plan goes well, there will be results next year. I am looking forward to taking the imperial examination next year and then slowly stepping into the public eye.

But before that, we have to do everything in secret..."

After that, the two men discussed for a few more words, and Xiao Yunzhou got off the carriage holding the railing.

"Come on, sister, let's go back. This is the reward Brother Jiayu gave us."

Xiao Yunzhou didn't say much, and Miaomiao didn't ask much either.

However, not long after their carriage left, a team representing the official seal hurried over from the other side. Everything was missed perfectly, as if it had been rehearsed many times.

Some people succeeded in going further because of their serious injuries and strategies for river management, becoming the opposite of the prince and gaining the guilt in His Majesty's heart.

Some people continue to stay in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to act and become the most indispensable assistants in this battle for the throne.

“Sister, today’s Brother Jiayu is actually the Third Prince of Dachen.

A kind-hearted weak scholar who has been weak since childhood and has no martial arts foundation.

There are no abdominal muscles on the belly, just a piece of fat."

When the carriage was halfway there, Xiao Yunzhou looked at Miaomiao, who was still happily counting money, and said something meaningful.

"Oh, that's pretty useless."

Miaomiao paused, gnawing at Xiao Yunzhou's dependent expression, and thought for a long time before commenting seriously...
