Chapter 287
Now that the Zhou family's shop is bigger, she is also busier than usual.
When Zhou Ruiyuan came back at night, Du Bangchun took out the base map of Qingzhou Mansion.
She drew on the map the most suitable places for the construction of official waterways.
Zhou Ruiyuan looked at it and said happily
: "Bangchun, these are all painted by you?" Du Bangchun smiled: "Yes, you look here, there are no roads in several counties, if the roads here are all open, we can transport rice to them to sell."
Zhou Ruiyuan nodded lightly, and then said slowly: "These places do need to build roads, but..."
Zhou Ruiyuan slowly put down the map, "That's right.
Du Bangchun turned around and took out the account book from the room, "Although our family is not a rich party now, we still have the money to build the road." As
she spoke, she drew ten thousand taels of silver directly from the ledger.
Zhou Ruiyuan was stunned, "Are you willing to take out so much silver to build a road for Qingzhou Mansion?"
Du Bangchun said slowly: "Of course I am willing, if this road is repaired, the people's lives can be better, and when the people's lives are better, our shops will have a steady stream of business."
Although she said it was all for her own shop.
But Zhou Ruiyuan knew that she was for his official career.
Spending money to build roads by himself can not only win the hearts of the people, but also gain a good reputation among the officials of the DPRK and China, which is not harmful to him.
Seeing that he didn't reply, Du Bangchun thought that he was reluctant to give up the money, so he smiled and comforted: "Xianggong, don't worry, in the future, we will not only be able to earn back this ten thousand taels, but also thirty thousand taels and forty thousand taels."
Zhou Ruiyuan stretched out his hand and gently hugged her in his arms, "Thank you, Bang Chun."
Du Bangchun said with a smile: "If you really want to thank you, you also want to thank your mother, part of the silver here is incense made by your mother."
Zhou Ruiyuan buried his head in her neck and nodded slightly, "When you return to Beijing, you and your mother won't have to suffer these things anymore."
Du Bangchun replied: "It's not hard, it's good that our family is happy."
Zhou Ruiyuan's heart tightened when he heard this, and he hugged her tighter.
The lights in the two's house shone all night again.
The next day, Zhou Ruiyuan returned to the county office with the silver ticket she gave and began to continue to build roads.
Previously, several official roads were built in several nearby counties, and there were many more traders coming and going in Cheng'an County.
This time, if all the official roads drawn by Du Bangchun are repaired, there will definitely be more people here.
It takes time to build a road, from a short one year to three years and five years.
Zhou Ruiyuan was not in a hurry, and slowly arranged this matter.
Wei Xun listened to Zhou Ruiyuan's suggestion and returned to Beidi with the whip of the county lord, which took half a year.
Half a year has changed a lot.
Du Bangchun's rice shop opened two more in the two states adjacent to Qingzhou Prefecture.
The balm in the rouge shop sells as much as possible.
Recently, she and Mrs. Zhou have made an expensive anti-aging cream.
However, ordinary women in Cheng'an County couldn't afford it, so Du Bangchun sent someone to give this Zhuyan Cream to Miss Han who was far away in the capital.
Miss Han and Zhou Feng have been married for several months, and the relationship between the two is very good.
After Miss Han received the cream, she couldn't wait to send it to her girlfriend.
This back and forth has been passed to the hands of various nobles in the capital.
A few months later, the nobles who had used the anti-beauty cream had to ask Miss Han where they bought it, and Miss Han told them about Du Bangchun's rouge shop.
