He held Fu Tian's hand all the way, but Chu Xiangtian had no intention of letting go. Fu Tian's mind was in a mess and even let him take him back to the room.

The slight warm light in the bedroom covered the whole room with a soft and ambiguous aura. Fu Tian pulled out his hand after realizing it, pursed his lips and asked Chu Xiangtian to go back to sleep quickly.

"Okay, you can clean up first." Chu Xiangtian turned around and went to the outside room with a smile.

There was warm water on the table outside, which was probably Dai Fu put in advance. Chu Xiangtian found a jar of honey, rinsed a cup of warm honey water, and brought it in for Fu Tian.

Fu Tian had just finished washing up and changed into a soft middle coat. The crown of her hair was also taken off. Her long black hair fell on her shoulders, which looked smaller and more like a person who wanted to hold it in her palm.

"Drink a cup of honey water before sleeping." Chu Xiangtian stuffed the cup into his hand.

Fu Tian said thank you, holding the cup, tilted his head and drank it clean.

His eyes fell on his Adam's apple that was sliding up and down. Chu Xiangtian's eyes darkened for a moment, but there was nothing unusual on his face. When Fu Tian finished drinking, he took the cup, rubbed his head, and said gently: "Good dream."

Fu Tian’s heart was as sweet as the honey water he just drank.

He stuck out his butt and got into the quilt. He didn't know if he drank honey water or for other reasons, he always felt sweet. He couldn't help but rolled in happily, and finally rolled to the inside of the bed, before burying his face in the soft quilt, and fell asleep with the sweet fragrance.

Of course, even dreams are sweet.

Fu Tian slept sweetly that night, and was full of energy when he woke up the next day. He put on a blue robe. Fu Tian went to the study to attend class with a good mood.

When he passed by the yard, he didn't see a familiar person doing boxing there. Fu Tian paused happily and then continued to walk towards the study.

Zhou Chuanqing used to pour him a cup of tea to wake him up. Fu Tian was drinking the tea, but he was thinking about the person who was not here.

Every morning he had to pass by the yard. Chu Xiangtian always punched the yard earlier than him. Although he passed by just a sound of early every day, it was just like the silent agreement between the two. Now Chu Xiangtian suddenly broke the agreement, and Fu Tian couldn't say anything in his heart. Anyway, he was not very excited.

Holding the teacup, Fu Tian couldn't help but stammer and asked, "Why is Chu Xiangtian not here today?"

Zhou Chuanqing raised his eyebrows in surprise, but he didn't expect Fu Tian to ask Chu Xiangtian.

The team sent by the imperial court to take over the gold mine arrived in the middle of the night yesterday.

The head of the Ministry of Works, with skilled craftsmen and tools needed to exploit them, finally arrived in Sifang Town.

Although Chu Xiangtian was about to be a manager, he always had to check the situation as soon as he arrived.

But this is definitely not something that can be said to Fu Tian. Zhou Chuanqing can only lie, "He has something to do and goes back to Xishantou."

Fu Tian said "Oh" and it turned out that something was wrong. He felt relieved and focused on listening to Zhou Chuanqing's lecture.

Chu Xiangtian is indeed as Zhou Chuanqing said, and he is busy.

Gold mining is not a matter of time. When those people secretly mined, in order not to cause big trouble, the cave was dug deep but did not take corresponding protective measures. If they wanted to mine, they had to ensure that the cave would not collapse.

In addition, Sifang Town lacks smelting equipment, and the mined ore has to be transported back to the capital for smelting and separation. The gold digging ship is too big, so it is too time-consuming and labor-intensive to transport it from the capital. In the short term, it can only be dealt with like this first.

"The Lord means that if the gold mine reserves are large enough, you can dig a canal."

The Sihu River is close to the Fengshui River, and the Fengshui River is the longest and widest river in the country of Great Chu. It extends to the northern border in the north and to the Nanming County in the south, and it almost crosses most of the country. If the Sihu River and the Fengshui River can be digging through, it will obviously be much more convenient for them to transport gold mines.

Chu Xiangtian also thought this was a good way. Now that the national treasury is empty, the gold mine I discovered by chance has solved their urgent needs. At least the military pay in the past two years can be more abundant.

"You send someone to explore the gold mine first and determine the storage amount."

"The gold mines that were mined before and had not had time to transport them away can be transported back first. As for the people stranded by Zhao Renhua and others, the identity will be found first, and after registration, the good people can be released. If anyone is willing to stay and mine, they will be paid according to the work. If they are a low-key person, the elderly, weak, women and children will be released, and the young and strong will stay and continue to mine, and the wages will be paid according to their performance..."

Chu Xiangtian arranged one by one and confirmed that there was no missing for the time being, so he prepared to leave.

The Minister of Works called him, "Will the prince stay in the county government?"

Chu Xiangtian frowned and stared at him seriously, "Don't call me a prince outside, and you can't even see me if you don't know me."

Minister of Works: "?????"

The confusing minister of the Ministry of Works, Chu Xiangtian strides away. In fact, he feels a little guilty. When the people from the capital come, someone must take charge of the overall situation. Either he or Zhou Chuanqing is frowning. He always feels that this matter is not easy to hide, and sooner or later he will cause trouble.

But it's not easy to tell the young master directly.

If you really say that, you might be kicked out again.

Chu Xiangtian tsk and returned to the Fu family with a familiarity. Forget it, let's take one step and another.

It was almost noon when I came back. Fu Tian finished reading the documents below and sent them to him. After annotating them one by one, he sealed the wax seal and sent someone to send them out.

During this period, all the managers were very enthusiastic. After returning from Sifang Town, they not only actively recommended candidates, but also tried to give Fu Tian a lot of useful suggestions.

Although these managers are good at managing rice shops for more than ten years and have rich experience. The suggestions they make are often more practical than those seen in Fu Tian’s own fantasy or in the book.

Therefore, Fu Tian was not stingy to give them some encouragement. At present, the staff of each shop have been gradually replenished, and what he has to do next is the business of the village.

However, most of the villages are around Sifang Town, so it is easier for Fu Tian to patrol. He stretched out his big laziness and Fu Tian was about to go out to exercise his muscles and bones, and then he just happened to run into Chu Xiangtian who came back.

"Where have you been?"

"The matter is done?"

Both of them were stunned, and then asked in unison.

Fu Tian laughed, his dark eyes were like crystal gems, with a moist light, "Well, it's done."

"Have you finished your business?" he asked again.

Chu Xiangtian nodded, "I went outside the city to deal with something."

Fu Tian was puzzled, "Didn't Brother Zhou say you have returned to Xishanzhai?"

Chu Xiangtian: "..." Why don't you say hello in advance when making up lies?

He calmly explained: "Well, I went back to Xishan Village first and went out of the city."

Fu Tian said "Oh" and didn't care too much, so he asked him if he had eaten.

Chu Xiangtian shook his head. He was discussing the gold mine with the people from the Ministry of Works in the middle of the night. After the finalization, he came back in a hurry, so he didn't have time to have dinner.

Fu Tian laughed, "I'll let the kitchen warm you up the food, eat some first?"

"good."

The two went back to the yard side by side. Dai Fu brought the warm food in the kitchen. Chu Xiangtian was indeed hungry, so he pinched the chopsticks and ate quickly. Fu Tian sat on the side with his cheeks and looked at him, smiling on his lips.

...

Two days later, the town posted an announcement that the new county magistrate had taken office, and the gold mine at the junction of Sifang Town and Lehe Town was about to start mining, and young men were to be recruited to mine, including food, and wages.

The people whispered in front of the announcement, whispering whether it was reliable or not.

The busy farming season has not started yet, and many people are idle. If it is true, it is also very cost-effective to earn some wages.

Before the announcement, there were officers and soldiers registering with booklets. At the beginning, there were only a few people. After two days, people who heard that there was indeed food and drink. After the wages were paid according to the amount of gold mines mined, more and more people signed up.

Gold mining is gradually getting on track, but this is not something Fu Tian is concerned about. What he is more concerned about is that the government has once again recruited young men and prepared to build a wharf in Sifang Town.

In fact, the Sihu River is wide and deep, with few rugged curves, which is very suitable for water transportation. It is just that the place is in a lie, and there is no ship coming from outside, and there is nothing to be transported inside. In addition, the former official was stunned, so this was not used.

Until the Ministry of Industry explored several times and determined that the existing gold mine reserves were rare, and after another semi-exposed gold deposit was found on another shallow not far away, the construction of the wharf was immediately put on the agenda. As for digging the canal, it also needed to write memorials and handed them over to wait for the capital to discuss.

When Fu Tian heard the news, he even took the people to the Sihu River for a walk. Zhou Chuanqing also said that it was possible to dig through the Sihu River and Fengshui. Whether it was true or false, this was undoubtedly good news for Fu Tian.

Chu Xiangtian didn't know why he was so happy. After hearing the news, Fu Tian looked like a pie fell from the sky, and he followed him and ran over.

The people from the Ministry of Works were surveying by the river and evaluating where the wharf was built was the most suitable. Fu Tian looked at the busy officers and soldiers and felt layer by layer of joy.

He has studied many methods to prevent and control droughts. Digging canals is undoubtedly the most effective. After the communication between the north and south water veins, the flood discharge and drought relief on both sides has been greatly improved, and water transportation is faster and safer than land transportation. After the canal is dug, even if the drought lasts for two years, they can still transport grain quickly through water.

The drought that lasted for two or three years in the previous life started from the south, but the situation in the north was not as severe as the Fengshui River. Fu Tian was thinking about it in his heart, and he was like a plant full of water, full of energy.

The Minister of Works and the Ministry of Works took people to survey the locations of the three wharfs, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and prepared to take people back first.

As soon as he climbed up the river bank, he saw Chu Xiangtian beside Fu Tian. He subconsciously wanted to come over to salute, but Chu Xiangtian's eyes were nailed to the spot.

He quickly retracted his hand, and the Minister of Works and the Minister turned his head and left quickly in another road.

Fu Tian was puzzled, "Did they just want to come here?"
