The grass in the factory should be plucked

Chapter 538 Gold Mine (Part )

The king and his ministers discussed for a while and listed the things they needed to do recently:

First, gold mining is the top priority.

Second, vigorously develop farming in the Western Regions, build commercial areas, and firmly control the Silk Road to the West in the hands of the Chu State.

Third, expand the navy and strengthen the cooperation between the Fujian Navy and the Tianjiying East China Sea Detachment to ensure the safety of sea transportation.

Fourthly, the East China Sea detachment of the Tianji Camp was ordered to set up outposts around Japan and surround it, and the Seabird Scout Team was ordered to monitor the situation on the island at all times.

In addition, the South-to-North Water Diversion Project and the "economic encroachment" policy on Mongolia and the Jurchens will continue to advance. Once manpower is freed up, this policy will be implemented in Junggar and Kazakhstan.

After the imperial meeting ended, Jiang Li and Xie Changan left the imperial study. They had to rush back to see their children.

"Sixteenth sister! Two princes! Wait for me!"

Mo Qillang hurriedly caught up.

Jiang Li thought he was going to settle the score with her, so she smiled and hid behind Xie Changan.

Unexpectedly, Mo Qilang rushed over like a gust of wind, with a smile on his face and a flattering look: "Sixteenth sister, can you show me your Tianji City?"

He worked hard and ran around, and finally completed the preliminary planning of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, and was then able to return to Beijing.

I heard that Jiang Li actually has an invisible and movable war castle. This castle is also alive and can control all kinds of weapons in the city at will!

Mo Qillang suddenly felt itchy, especially when he heard that Mo Sanlang had taken the lead and refused to leave the city, thus obtaining the right to renovate the city first. He beat his chest and stamped his feet, deeply regretting that he had missed the opportunity.

If any disciple of the Mohist school heard of such a magical city, who wouldn’t be yearning for it and want to see it for himself?

Tianji City also has city spirits. No matter how you want to transform it, you don’t have to do it yourself. Just provide weapons and design plans, and the city spirits will install them for you accordingly!

This Tianji City is simply a paradise for Mohist disciples!

Many fantastic ideas that cannot be put into practice under normal circumstances can come true in Tianji City!

Mo Sanlang, who got there first, immediately became a thorn in the side of the Mohist disciples.

Mo Qillang decided to exercise his privileges as a "big son" and the authority of the Minister of Works to replace his unsportsmanlike third brother!

He wants to do it himself!

Jiang Li heard his purpose and said with a smile: "Okay, no problem, I'll give you a token of the Tianji Camp, and you can enter the city."

"It's just..." she drawled.

"Just what?"

"Brother Mo Qi, don't forget that you just received the order from the emperor to mine that gold mine."

Tianji City is indeed important, but the gold mine is related to people's livelihood, and it is used to enrich the national treasury. It is easy to understand which is more important.

Mo Qillang couldn't help but feel discouraged.

"Brother Mo Qi, as a prominent figure in the Mo family and the Minister of Works, you should just be in charge of the overall situation. Why do you have to do everything yourself?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Brother Mo is honest and kind-hearted, and is also good at military engineering. He is indeed the best candidate to transform Tianji City."

"Besides, you have the token in your hand, so you can enter the city anytime you want. I'll have Xiao Ling pick you up at the edge of the desert."

"Ok."

Mo Qilang's eyes rolled as he proposed another condition. "That fellow Shen Muchun boasted about riding an eagle the moment he saw me. Sixteenth sister, can you talk to Brother Eagle and ask him to give me a ride sometime?"

"Okay!" Jiang Li agreed immediately.

"Now is the perfect opportunity. Before you start mining, Brother Chang'an and I will go with you to explore the gold mine."

That gold-type spiritual plant is in the Xiling Gold Mine on Sanshan Island.

Sanshan Island is in the Bohai Bay. Jiang Li and Xie Changan can go there directly through the Dragon Palace, and even bring the breastfeeding Xie Wuyou and Xie Wuchou with them.

Originally, Jiang Li wanted Mo Qillang to enter the Dragon Palace and go with them, but since he wanted to ride the eagle, let him ride it by himself.

"Okay, okay, when do we leave?"

Mo Qilang was overjoyed, completely unaware that he had missed a great opportunity to show off to Shen Muchun!

Xie Changan pursed his lips and smiled: "Three days later."

It was not easy to bring the flock of sheep into the Dragon Palace, so he had to first customize the milk cakes for the two babies.

"Okay!" Mo Qilang was very excited.

He looked at the two people in front of him with jade-like skin, and was very envious. He asked again: "Is there any way to take care of the skin?"

"Your sister-in-law dislikes my tan and rough appearance, and says I look old and like her father!"

Mo Qillang had a sad face.

He is ten years older than Shangguan Ling'er, and has been exposed to the wind and sun every day in the past two years. His skin is now dark, and at first glance he looks like a farmer. Where is the handsomeness he had when he was a secret guard of the East Factory?

"Hahahaha..." Jiang Li laughed so hard that he fell over.

Even Xie Changan couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

They practiced the "Divine Movement Body Refining Technique", and their spiritual consciousness could isolate themselves from external objects, so naturally they did not need to take care of their skin.

"Stop laughing and think of a solution for me."

Jiang Li suppressed her laughter and said, "Go find Brother Shen and ask him to prescribe a medicinal bath recipe. Just soak your skin more often and it will be fine. My sister-in-law should know this kind of recipe, right?"

Shangguan Ling'er is also a disciple of Ghost Doctor Valley, how could she not know the recipes for skin care?

Mo Qillang suddenly understood.

Shangguan Ling'er had indeed made him a lot of sunscreen and skin care balms and creams, but he was too busy and careless. He thought, as a grown man, what would it look like to put these balms on his face all day long?

After all the hard work and traveling, I didn't know where the balsam and ointments were thrown away.

"Okay, thank you for the reminder, Sister Sixteen!"

After leaving the palace, Mo Qillang went straight to the Ruian Earl's Mansion to harass Shen Muchun.

Jiang Li and the other person returned to the mansion, changed their clothes first, and then went to see Xie Wuyou and Xie Wuchou, who had just turned one month old.

The two babies had just woken up, and Aunt Lian was instructing Fei'er and Cui'er to feed them goat milk.

"Let me do it."

Jiang Li gently hugged Xie Wuyou, and Xie Changan hugged Xie Wuchou.

The twins, a boy and a girl, recognized their parents' scent and gave them a toothless smile that melted their hearts.

"Mother's baby."

Jiang Li looked at the two mini versions of herself and kissed one and then the other with joy.

This pair of twins, a boy and a girl, are just like their older brother and sister. Although they look exactly the same, their personalities are completely different.

Xie Wuyou is very well-behaved and doesn't like to cry. After eating and sleeping enough every day, he lies quietly in his crib and plays with his fingers, enjoying himself.

Xie Wuchou is a real spoiled brat. Whenever he wakes up, he has to be held in someone's arms, and he starts crying as soon as he is put on the bed.

"It's all because of you who spoiled her!" Jiang Li glared at Xie Changan.

The little girl is Xie Changan's treasure and the apple of his eye. As long as he is at home, he will always hold her in his arms.

Xie Wuchou is used to being held, so doesn't he start crying as soon as he's put down?

Xie Changan kissed the little girl's cheek and said with a smile, "They say that a girl is the apple of your eye, so naturally you should hold her in your arms every day."

Jiang Li told Aunt Lian that they were going on a business trip again and wanted to take Xie Wuyou and Xie Wuchou with them.

Aunt Lian was already used to it, so she told Feicui to take a few maids to prepare the things that the twins would need.

Anyway, there are Xie Changan and Xiao Teng. Under her training, Xiao Teng is now able to help take care of the baby, which makes her feel more at ease than Xiao Li Nu.
