Chapter 284 Extra: May everyone get what they want (1)
The ancient world and the modern world are in different spatial dimensions, and of course the speed of time flow is also different.
Take Shi Lidie herself for example——
Her modern body was lying on a hospital bed and she had only been in a coma for more than half a month, but in ancient times, she had already spent many years there, growing from a fifteen-year-old country girl to a princess in her twenties.
So, when the Ning family recognized their daughter and held a homecoming banquet in the modern world, Shi Lidie had already spent many years in ancient times. Now, she is a middle-aged woman in her thirties.
After the annexation of Nanyi, the emperor rewarded Shi Lidie and Shen Yanxi for their merits and granted them a marriage, and asked them to get married the following year, which Shi Lidie did.
In the second year after the marriage was granted, the palace prepared all the things needed for the wedding and sent them to Shi Lidie's fiefdom.
The emperor and the empress also went to their fiefdom with a small number of civil and military officials to attend Shi Lidie's wedding.
Although Shen Yanxi was marrying into the wife's family, the wedding scene was still very grand. The dowry that the royal family gave to Shi Lidie was even more than the ten-mile red makeup, and almost covered the entire Qingping County.
This was the second time the emperor and the empress sent Shi Lidie to get married.
The first time was when she was going to Ye State to marry a foreign princess. At that time, everyone was sad, and there was also a sense of heaviness that "the heavy responsibility of the country was placed on the shoulders of a weak woman."
The Queen would worry that Shi Lidie was not having a good life in Ye State and would often toss and turn in bed.
But now, it's different.
Now, this husband was the one chosen by Shi Lidie herself, and he was a son-in-law, so Shi Lidie did not need to marry far away. In her fiefdom, she was the master, and no one dared to bully her.
After getting married, Shi Lidie and Shen Yanxi became official husband and wife.
A princess and a prince consort.
After getting married, the two of them worked together with one mind and one heart to continue contributing to the development of the fiefdom.
It took another two years, and the fiefdom developed very prosperously. Not only did the common people live a happy life, but the facilities here were also very complete. The fiefdom had become the first choice for many dignitaries and wealthy businessmen to relax and vacation.
Many wealthy people bought houses in their fiefdoms, hoping to come and stay for a while when they have some free time during the year.
This also brought more business opportunities to the fiefdom.
Nowadays, the fiefdom has developed to the point where it can rival the capital.
When the fiefdom had developed to a certain extent, the two of them went to various parts of the country in accordance with the emperor's wishes to help guide various tasks. From then on, Shi Lidie became the emperor's imperial envoy.
Shi Lidie handed over all the affairs of the fiefdom to Chen Zhao, as well as Chen Shuting, Du Mingyue, Qin Mengyao, Gu Qinglan, Zhu Xinghe and others. With these people in charge, there would basically be no trouble in the fiefdom.
Shi Lidie and Shen Yanxi, holding the emperor's edict, took a carriage and began a national tour.
She adhered to the idea that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and popularized cement throughout the country.
Whenever she arrived at a place, she would hire the people to build roads, just like she had done in the beginning on her fiefdom. With her experience in fiefdom, Shi Lidie was able to handle subsequent matters with ease, and there were basically no problems just by following the routine.
After the road was repaired, people's lives became much more convenient.
Then, Shi Lidie brought out the model of agriculture, industry and commerce, and developed different characteristic industries based on the characteristics of different regions.
For example, some places are rich in tea, some places are rich in green oranges, some places are suitable for growing cotton, and some places are suitable for growing sugarcane... She adapted to local conditions based on the local terrain, climate and soil.
In areas like the newly conquered Nanyi, the climate is hot, the soil is fertile, and there is plenty of water. Crops can be grown three times a year, so these places can be designated as grain-growing areas.
……
It is not an easy task to develop the whole country.
Shi Lidie recalled that it took a long time for her modern country to completely get rid of poverty and become rich. She still clearly remembers the policies of that time.
For example, narrowing the urban-rural gap and allowing the rich to drive the poor; for example, the eastern region takes the lead in development, the central region rises, and the western region is developed; and there are also policies that benefit the whole country, such as the South-to-North Water Diversion Project and the West-to-East Gas Transmission Project.
Therefore, in ancient society, when technology was very underdeveloped, if she wanted to make all the people in the country live a good life, it would take her a longer time.
It has been more than ten years since Shi Lidie and Shen Yanxi left.
They stay in each place for one to two years, and even three years in places with complicated situations, until the local development is on the right track, and then they set off for the next place.
As they worked hard, time passed quickly.
When the system captured the situation in modern society and made a video to play for Shi Lidie, she had almost led the entire southeastern region of Dayin Dynasty on the road to prosperity.
She was very fortunate that the geographical location of the Dayin Dynasty was somewhat similar to that of her own country, so she could selectively refer to the policies formulated by her predecessors, and then modify them in light of the national conditions of the Dayin Dynasty to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Shi Lidie had just finished watching the video of the Ning family's return party and was feeling happy for the original owner when Ah Feng suddenly spoke up:
[Host, we have detected that your current merits and faith are enough to send Shen Yanxi back to the modern era.]
[Excuse me, do you want to send him back now? ]
Shi Lidie was slightly stunned and couldn't help but wonder:
"Is that enough?"
[It’s enough, and there’s even some surplus. ]
[Host, don't you think about how much merit you have?]
[In modern society, you often go to orphanages as a volunteer, helping the elderly and the weak for free, and even risking your life to fight robbers. Although these things are not big, they are all real merits.]
【After arriving in ancient society, you did a lot of things. 】
[You solved the problem of military rations and helped many soldiers. The soldiers defended their country and they have merits. You protected those who have merits, which is also a merit.]
[You took out potatoes and solved the famine in Fengping County. Later, you even promoted potatoes throughout the country, so that no one in the entire Dayin Dynasty starved to death. This merit can be called helping the world. ]
[You have contributed to the unification of the Central Plains, which has reduced the wars in the next hundred years to a certain extent, and has saved the people in the border areas from the threat of war. This is the merit of unifying the world.]
[You developed your fiefdom, did your best to make the people live a good life, promoted girls' schools, improved the status of women, and made the entire Dayin Dynasty exude vigorous vitality. This is a merit that will benefit future generations.]
[Host, if you count your merits, there are too many to mention. If you convert them into energy, you can still send Shen Yanxi back. You can even have some extra for your future use.]
Shi Lidie was stunned when she heard this.
It turned out that she had done so many things without realizing it. She once thought that accumulating merits to send Shen Yanxi back was a very unattainable thing, but now the goal is within reach.
"Let me ask him first." Shi Lidie said to the system.
