Chapter 517: Robots also have vanity
In the eyes of the people of Donglin Kingdom, Mu Qingqing is now a living Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering.
Many of the people who came to seek refuge were from poor families with many children and could not even get enough food to eat.
When they came to Shengjing City this time, they did not expect that the shopkeeper Fu who recruited them would even accept the woman who had always been looked down upon by the men in the family.
They were made to work as cooks or needlework maids, and were paid one tael of silver per month, working six days a week and having one day off.
They had never dared to imagine such treatment before.
Before, when I was in the village, I washed clothes and embroidered handkerchiefs and purses for the rich families in the town every day. I did all kinds of work, working from dawn to dusk all month long but not earning a single ounce of silver.
Now, Manager Fu not only assigns appropriate jobs to the people who have come to seek refuge, but also allocates housing to them according to each household.
If the people come with their families, Manager Fu will arrange separate houses for them to live in based on the number of people in the family.
These treatments were envied by not only the poor people from all directions but also the people living near Shengjing City.
Many people participated in the construction of roads and bridges.
I heard from Shopkeeper Fu that the Sixth Princess has already started building an academy to accept poor children from all over.
This child not only refers to boys, but also girls, who can all sign up to study unconditionally.
It is said that children who come to the college to study only need to pay a certain amount of fees for books, pens, etc.
This is great news for ordinary people like them who have lived in poverty all their lives and cannot afford the tuition for a child.
They would rather suffer a little themselves, hoping that their children can succeed in the future.
But this world is so cruel. The lives of poor people are hard to even have enough food and clothing all year round, so how can they have spare money for their children's education?
Now, the Sixth Princess not only provides them with jobs, but also provides a future for their children.
Many people who heard the news from other places asked people to go back to their hometowns and ask the idle people at home to come to Shengjing City to find work.
Emperor Tai'an now has a strong hand in governing his subordinates, and the Ministry of Works began to build a merit stele in the Danchi in front of the imperial palace on the fifth day of the first lunar month.
The third prince Ye Tianran was very careful and quick in this regard.
As soon as the first merit stele was built, Ye Tianran engraved the name of the latest donor and the amount of donation on it.
According to the different purposes of the funds, they are classified and engraved on the corresponding merit tablets.
After hearing the news, many wealthy people came and donated enthusiastically.
Ye Tianran received them personally one by one, carefully registered their donated materials, and left backup copies for them.
Through these backup materials, the direct descendants of these wealthy donors can enjoy corresponding treatment in the future.
For example, there are certain priorities when entering an academy or a court.
Mu Qingqing suggested to Emperor Tai'an that if the donation exceeds a certain amount, the donor would receive an imperial edict of commendation.
Rich people who donated more than one million taels of silver could enter the palace to meet the emperor and get a signature written by Emperor Tai'an himself.
Among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, the status of merchants is the lowest. To these wealthy people, money is nothing!
One million taels of silver in exchange for a signature written by the emperor himself, it’s worth it!
I am so proud of this that I can brag about it for the rest of my life when I return to my hometown.
For Emperor Tai'an, just a few words he wrote casually could be exchanged for one million taels of silver. It was worth it!
Emperor Tai'an was so excited that he was like a surging tide. He was secretly proud of himself: Which emperor's calligraphy in history is as valuable as mine? Hahaha!
Ever since my sixth brother and his wife were born, I am not far from becoming the greatest emperor of all time!
The capital of Donglin Kingdom is under construction in full swing. Emperor Tai'an has not yet announced the news of the demise of Beimo Kingdom.
I will make a decision only after discussing it with my sixth brother and his wife.
Mu Qingqing frowned at the giant pythons lying on the ground, "Brother, just looking at the skin of these two giant pythons, they don't look very delicious!"
Nangong Qi kicked the python's tail with his toes, and it was quite elastic. "Qingqing, such a thick snake is rare in a hundred years, and the meat must be delicious."
Mu Qingqing stared at the two pythons on the ground, thinking of the pregnant women in Yaowang Valley, her eyes flickered, "Brother, we can't finish eating two pythons. Let's skin one first and freeze the remaining one."
Mu Qingqing plans to throw one of the pythons into the medical station and let the robot Amu dissect it to study the genetic sequence of the python.
It would be great to understand why pythons can make human women pregnant.
Nangong Qi pointed at the python whose tail had been peeled off halfway, "Qingqing, let's eat this python first! Big brother took great pains to peel off this half of the snake's tail."
Mu Qingqing nodded immediately and threw the other python's corpse to the medical station without changing her expression.
Amu, you should study this python carefully, including every aspect of its body, inside and out, and don't miss a single detail.
Sequence its genes and find out what causes them to make humans pregnant.
The robot Amu spoke with a little excitement: Okay, master!
Mu Qingqing heard the excitement in the voice of the robot Amu and felt a little strange: Amu, you are a robot, what is there to be excited about?
Robot Amu: Master, we in the robot world also have high and low judgments. If Amu can crack this research, Amu will become famous in the robot world of other planets.
Mu Qingqing's face was filled with black lines when she heard this. She had a thousand MMPs in her mind but she didn't know whether she should say them or not!
It’s really unexpected that robots also have vanity and want to show off in front of other robots and demonstrate their high talents.
Mu Qingqing cut off the connection with the robot Amu, took out a solar-powered portable electric saw, and started sawing the python's body herself.
"Qingqing, this snake's scales are very thick and hard. I used 80% of my internal strength but could only break a tiny bit of its skin. How can your tiny thing help..."
Nangong Qi saw that the tools Mu Qingqing took out were very small and mini, so he greeted her in advance, fearing that she would lose face.
When he saw Mu Qingqing easily cut through the python's hard scales with a portable electric saw, his face turned red.
Hey! How could I have forgotten again? When Qingqing makes something, it must be a masterpiece!
"Master, this looks like a lot of fun. How about letting me try it too?"
Zuo Si saw Mu Qingqing sawing the snake into segments with ease and stepped forward to recommend himself.
Mu Qingqing took out the decoration drawings of the palace from her sleeve, pointed at the circled and dotted places on it, and took out a lot of security equipment.
"Si'er, you and San'er, install all the security equipment in the palace for me today."
Zuo Si took the decoration drawings with both hands, looked through them carefully, reviewed them in his mind, and patted his chest towards Mu Qingqing.
"Master, rest assured, I and Zuo San will be able to complete the task flawlessly today."
