Chapter 271 Xiao Mei Who Doesn't Know What to Do
In late summer and early autumn, Xianyang was still extremely hot. In order to escape the heat, Ying Yu and his family lived in a newly built villa by the Weishui River.
In the gazebo of the villa, Ying Yu, Jiang Shu, Hong Xiu, Zang Ta, Wang Ying, the sisters of the Lu family, etc. were chatting and laughing.
Only there was no smile on Xiao Mei's face.
Ying Yu didn't bother to talk to her about it.
Although the two had already passed the bedsheets, Xiao Mei's status in Ying Yu's heart had not yet risen to the point where she could influence his thoughts.
In order to better control the Da Yuezhi cavalry, Bo Cai had to die.
Bo Cai didn't need to die so early, I can only blame him for being too greedy.
Looking at Xiao Mei with red eyes, Wang Ying blinked, hesitated a little and said:
"Brother Yu, the Royal Academy is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more children are enrolled. Ying'er plans to ask sister Xiao to help. Do you think it's okay?"
Ying Yu was a little dazed when he heard this.
He didn't expect Wang Ying to make such a request.
But Ying Yu figured it out soon.
With Xiao Mei staying by her side now, it can be said that she is a ticking time bomb.
His father Bo Cai's death was obviously due to serious injuries.
But anyone with a brain can figure out the truth of this matter.
Xiao Mei is naturally not a stupid person.
Although the two of them already have the reality of husband and wife, don't forget that the two of them had no relationship at first.
Under such circumstances, no one can guarantee what Xiao Mei will do.
The reason why Wang Ying asked Xiao Mei to go to the academy was obviously because she was afraid that she would be bad for her.
"It's good to go to the academy to relax, so you don't have to stay at home and think about it all day long!"
Although he knew that Xiao Mei would not harm him, Ying Yu agreed to Wang Ying's request.
Xiao Mei, who was at the side, obviously also heard the conversation between the two, and looked at Ying Yu in a daze.
Home?
Does he really think of me as family?
If he really regarded me as a family member, how could his father die?
At this time, Xiao Mei's mood was extremely complicated.
After getting along for nearly a year, she has fallen deeply in love with this charming man in front of her.
But it was also because of him, his father's death.
Although this father is not good to him, but that is his father after all.
Until Xiao Mei followed Wang Ying and left Weishui Villa, she was still in a state of confusion.
She didn't know what to do with herself at this moment.
It was as if nothing was the same, and continued to live by Ying Yu's side.
Or should he leave Daqin and return to Da Yueshi?
"Sister Xiao, the academy is here."
Xiao Mei nodded slightly and followed Wang Ying out of the carriage.
After entering the academy, he soon saw a group of children playing.
Most of the children in the preschool academy that Wang Ying is in charge of are under the age of six. To put it bluntly, it is a kindergarten for future generations.
"Hello, Mr. Wang!"
Seeing Wang Ying coming back, a group of children ran over immediately.
"Well, everything is good! The teacher is not here today, have you been mischievous?"
A group of children shook their heads like rattles, provoking a group of people with smiles on their faces.
Looking at these lively and active children in front of them, their eyes are full of innocence.
Xiao Mei felt much better.
Seeing these children secretly looking at her, Xiao Mei reluctantly smiled at them.
"Teacher, you look so pretty when you smile!"
A little girl wearing a light yellow dress with a smile on her face came to Xiao Mei.
Looks good when you smile?
Xiao Mei stared blankly at the little girl in front of her.
In this little girl, she seemed to see her former self.
When she was a child, she was also like this girl, she loved to laugh very much, and she always had a smile on her face.
But as she got older, the smile on her face became less and less.
Xiao Mei bent down, picked up the little girl, and asked softly, "What's your name?"
"Back to teacher, my name is Wang Yue!"
"Wang Yue, that's a nice name."
Xiao Mei pinched the little girl's face and said with a smile.
Seeing this scene, Wang Ying on the side also showed a smile on the corner of her mouth.
......
After the barbecue dinner was over, Ying Yu started to get busy again.
Tianzhu County was newly built, and he wanted to submit the plan to Brother Zheng as soon as possible.
First of all, except for a small number of aborigines who are willing to cooperate with Daqin unconditionally, the rest of the people of the Maurya Dynasty must undergo labor reform.
Anyway, Daqin now has more and more projects, and the demand for labor is also increasing.
The people of the Maurya Dynasty are the best labor.
Of course, Ying Yu will not make the mistakes of some countries in later generations.
These people from the Peacock Dynasty can only be laborers, and Ying Yu will not give them the opportunity to marry and reproduce.
You just need to control this well, even if these laborers can survive in various difficult and dangerous environments, they will die of old age after a few decades.
In many cases, soft knives are more ruthless than directly wielding butcher knives.
As for what the people of the Peacock Dynasty would think, it was not within Ying Yu's consideration.
It's better to be a coolie for Daqin than to die under the butcher's knife of Sarishuka, right?
At least there is food to eat.
Moreover, according to the wonderful religious philosophy of the Maurya Dynasty, the harder this life is, the more chances they will be reborn in a higher caste in the next life. Ying Yu is also helping them.
It's just another matter whether there is a Maurya Dynasty after decades.
And the small number of obedient citizens who stayed in Tianzhu County, without the advantage of numbers, naturally did not pose a threat to Daqin.
Mergers and devours between countries have always been ruthless.
After getting rid of the biggest threat of population, Daqin can start to gradually immigrate and develop Tianzhu County.
This is a real gem.
The land is fertile, the climate is suitable, and the degree of cultivation is not as good as that of Daqin, so you can get something if you just sprinkle some seeds.
It also produces spices and various fruits, which are important economic resources.
Once developed, it will not only bring huge profits, but also enrich the dining tables of the people of Daqin.
As a big foodie empire, how can you not eat well?
Of course, as far as industry is concerned, there is no need to think about such local heavy industries, and only some light industries can be developed.
Heavy industry and high technology must stay in Daqin.
Because only in this way can Daqin always stay ahead and firmly control overseas territories, and it is more in line with the core essence of centralization.
As for the current problem of not being able to enter the Mediterranean Sea, it may be difficult for others, but for Ying Yu, it is not a problem at all.
Didn't Ptolemy Egypt have subdued and intended to hand over military command to Daqin?
Then let Meng Tian lead the expeditionary force to reorganize the Macedonian and Ptolemy Egyptian armies, and conduct some inspections in Ptolemy Egypt by the way.
As a traverser, Ying Yu clearly remembered that in future generations, there is an important canal that runs through the entire Mediterranean Sea and connects the three continents of Asia, Europe, and Africa.
In fact, the development of the Suez Canal had already had some plans before Ptolemy Egypt, but due to the limitation of national strength, it was not finally completed.
