Queen and Her Duke

Chapter 92

In the following six months, Wen Lin has been running around in Yinhe Village and the parish, gradually realizing her plans and ideas.

When Vicia is free, she will come out to look for her in disguise, and the two will go out to inspect the territory together and talk about the next situation and arrangements.

On both sides of the road are heavy golden-yellow wheat, and when the wind blows, the boundless golden waves of wheat are surging.

When she was on the road just now, Wen Lin estimated that the average plant-to-income ratio per acre of land could reach about 1:35, that is, if 1 catty of grain was planted, 35 catties of grain could be harvested back.

Compared with the modern crop yield in China, it is definitely still a bit worse, after all, it is limited by the local climate and the variety of crops.

However, compared with the original Golan's 1:6 or even lower crop to harvest ratio, this year's harvest is a miracle.

Of course, it's not just that the crops in Wen Lin's territory are growing so well. For all the nobles who have purchased agricultural tools, Wen Lin has sent a special person to guide the cultivation.

There are those who listen and those who don't, and the difference between them is now felt by the nobles.

Seeing that the harvests on other people's territories have doubled, all the nobles who didn't listen are regretful.

However, the obvious changes are far more than one point. The most dilapidated Fangtings slum in Wangcheng has been newly built into a commercial area.

The term commercial area is very new to the people of Golan, but its explanation is easy to understand, an area only used for business.

With the Queen's promulgation of a decree to encourage free people to do business, the most lively area in Wangcheng is now the Fangtings business district.

At first, the nobles were resolutely opposed, and they entered the palace many times to ask to see the queen.

Freemen in the territories began to wander and do business, affecting the taxes they collected on agriculture.

Vicia had avoided seeing it a few times before, but then she simply convened a parliament to formulate a unified business tax, and at the same time encouraged the nobles to participate in business.

Nobles will always be interested in profit. When they found that using the farm tools bought at Wen Lin could save people and time and harvest more crops, they all shut their mouths wisely.

At the same time, Wen Lin also signed a cooperation contract with several big nobles, and they provided first-class raw materials to Wen Lin, while Wen Lin upgraded the industry, processed it into finished products or semi-finished products and sold them.

This allows Wen Lin to allocate as much manpower and field resources as possible to new attempts.

Latimer and Brown rode a horse and followed behind them, and the waiters who served Vicia and Wen Lin were not surprised by the occasional intimacy of Vicia and Wen Lin.

It can only be regarded as the Queen's special favor for Her Excellency Wen Lin, who is also a woman. After all, Wen Lin's talents are currently unmatched by others.

The Queen's overt and secret preference, given as a matter of course, is beyond reproach.

Latimer looked the most excited. He grew a lot taller. Looking at the servants who were tending the wheat fields in the distance, he couldn't hide the excitement in his voice.

Latimer recognized them, they were originally poor people in the Fangtings slum area, he looked into the distance for a while, and then asked Wen Lin in high spirits.

"Teacher, this is what you mean by cash-for-work."

With a smile, Wen Lin didn't stingy with her praise, "Yes, Your Highness, this is cash-for-work."

After thinking about it for a while, Wen Lin continued, "Your Highness, you must be clear that for a monarch of a country, kindness and charity that do not solve the problem at the root are actually meaningless, a good and stable job is what what they really need."

Latimer is still young, and now he spends most of his time in Innhe Village, and what he most often hears is the kindness and generosity of the villagers.

As a child, his mind is not yet fully mature, and his view of things is relatively one-sided. Wen Lin has seen him give alms to beggars or refugees many times.

Wen Lin didn't interfere with his actions. It was very difficult for the royal children to be exposed to the lowest level of living conditions and maintain goodwill when they were young.

When he is older, perhaps this kindness will slowly fade away.

Wen Lin's remarks were severe, and she took on the usual teaching attitude.

Latimer, who was originally relaxed, sat upright in an instant, nodding uncontrollably, his eyes full of reverence for Wen Lin.

Brown stared at Vicia's smile on the side, secretly relieved, and couldn't help feeling that Her Majesty Vihia would only be so indulgent when facing Your Excellency Wen Lin.

And Your Excellency Wen Lin was extraordinarily indulgent in front of His Majesty, and even dared to discipline the children of the royal family in front of His Majesty. If other people dared to do this, they would be accused of being disrespectful to the royal family.

Brown has been serving by Wen Lin's side all this time, accompanying her to meet nobles and deal with matters big and small.

Brown felt strange. It was clear that when Her Excellency Wen Lin met with other nobles, she had a moderate advance and retreat, and she was just right.

Sighing quietly, Brown didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

How long can the monarch's trust last? Brown, who had already tied his life to Wen Lin, only hoped that His Majesty Vicia could trust Lord Wen Lin for a longer time.

Now the entire Golan already knows that the minister that Her Majesty Vihiya trusts and loves most is Wen Lin.

There were only a lot of invitations floating into No. 18 Tuva Road, and Wen Lin began to choose some banquets to attend.

Among them, there were many who gave their hugs at the banquet, and without exception, they were all rejected by Wen Lin mercilessly.

In just over half a year, the net worth accumulated by Wen Lin has already made many people salivate.

But due to the trust of the army in Wen Lin's hand and Vicia, no one dared to do anything for the time being.

Compared with the coveting of Golan, Visia and Wen Lin were obviously more worried about the Holy Court's investigation, but let them

They were all relieved that Tilia sent a letter, stating that the Holy Court would not have the energy to toss Sutherland again within two years.

The price was that Vicia had to secretly borrow soldiers and money to her, and at the same time, when she needed it, Wen Lin had to go to Madrid to give her a diagnosis and treatment.

In terms of money, Wen Lin is not short of money, but it happens that the navy lacks actual combat training. Without too much hesitation, the two agreed to discuss it.

As for Prince Philip and his messengers, they were all guarded and locked up in a courtyard outside the king's suburbs.

Everything is on the right track, now just dormant development, waiting for the time.

The relationship between Vicia and Wen Lin has become more and more tacit, and often they can understand what the other is thinking with just one look.

One of the most surprising changes came from the Holy See. Lucius’s preaching was no longer about teaching the theology of nothingness and supremacy. He began to discuss with the believers the real goodness and justice, and how to be a true devout believer.

At first he was denounced by stubborn priests as being lured by the devil, falling from the altar, and becoming a shameful heretic.

And after seeing the transformation in Sol parish with their own eyes, they shut their mouths.

The liberation of the mind brings the liberation of the labor force. Many people's lives are no longer confined to the land, their lives are improving, and they have more choices for themselves and their offspring.

Regarding the school opened by Wen Lin, it has received great praise.

Children who come out of school can find a good job with what they have learned in Wangcheng, especially in arithmetic. Their brains are more flexible and their thinking is more agile. Many of them are hired by the city as assistants to the housekeeper.

However, nothing is broken or established, and the concentration of royal power will inevitably affect the vested interests of the nobles.

During this time, the nobles of the old school and the new school have begun to meet and discuss privately.

Today, Wei Shiya came out of the royal court to accompany Wen Lin to solve this matter, but Wen Lin was unexpectedly stubborn, she did not want to let Wei Shiya get involved, so she took her to the outskirts of Yinhe Village on her own initiative, until the end of the day. Hei personally sent the person back to Wang Ting before turning around and rushing to the place agreed with the nobles.

This is a dark and narrow manor. It seems that it has not been repaired for a long time. However, in the hall of the manor, nearly 20 nobles are sitting and looking out of the door.

A fire was lit in the dilapidated fireplace, candles were lit on the table, and a letter from Wen Lin was placed on the table.

The letter only said to let them wait, but did not specify when it would come.

Seeing that it was already dark, Wen Lin didn't even have a trace, and several nobles who felt offended scolded rather angrily,

"It's just an alien, is it possible that she can still be so arrogant?"

Soon someone came out to refute, "Maybe she can do it? Otherwise, why would so many of us wait here willingly, or just let her fingers leak some good things out."

As soon as these words came out, the nobles sitting around the table fell into silence, they looked at each other, no one knew what to say for a while.

Her Majesty Vicia's attitude on government affairs has become more and more tough recently, and the role of the parliament is being drastically reduced. If it is left unchecked, the parliament will only become a complete display.

They can't let this situation go unchecked, and Wen Lin is obviously the only breakthrough.

His Majesty is short of money, Wen Lin has a way to make money, and His Majesty lacks an army that can actually fight, so she started training.

The muscles on the faces of the nobles twitched, and their headaches continued. There was only one way in front of them, and that was to win over Wen Lin and alienate her relationship with His Majesty Vicia.

When Wen Lin appeared, there was a moment of silence in the hall.

Immediately afterwards, the nobles had smiles on their faces and began to fight with Wen Linxu and Wei Snake.

Wen Lin, on the other hand, wanted to be more direct. She replied with a gentle smile, but what she said was not so polite, "Everyone, I will leave in three quarters of an hour. What you want to say needs to be said as soon as possible."

Several people's mouths opened and closed, and they were stunned for a while, and their faces slowly turned red. They were all noble nobles in the royal city.

"Your Excellency Wen Lin, we want to negotiate with you, not only on government cooperation, but also on our business cooperation."

Wen Lin sat down calmly, with a look of patient listening.

Similar to what she had guessed, these people saw that Wen Lin seemed to show signs of softening, and they made their requirements clear, and each lion opened their mouths. .

The most naive is to provoke the relationship between her and Vicia.

It is true that it is difficult for a monarch and a minister to accompany them consistently for decades, but between her and Vicia, it is not just a relationship between a monarch and a minister.

Wen Lin couldn't help laughing out loud, looking at their indignant persuasion, it was funny and funny at the same time,

"Everyone, forgive me, you are not qualified to negotiate with me, when it comes to power, army, wealth, who can compete with me, all the scum that stands in front of me will be crushed, I believe you are not selfish Dead scum."

Wen Lin was clearly laughing, but her unwavering and gloomy tone made everyone shudder.

The author has something to say: I warm: the words are not complete, it should be

"All the dregs standing in front of Your Majesty Vicia and me will be crushed!"

The last chapter came out alone, and I don't know if there will be a list next week, because it doesn't matter if it is locked or not, I will solve it slowly ~ strive to keep the most original scumbags.

Explain, Wen Lin is not floating, but attracting firepower! The contradiction between kingship and nobility is difficult to reconcile, and there must be someone to charge during the game!
