I Don’t Want To Be the Emperor

Chapter 457 Hai Mao

 It was no longer necessary for him to care whether a woman like Guan Xiaoqi was in danger in the middle of the night.

Jiao Zhong is the commander of the palace guards. If he needs to answer even this small matter, he can just do it!

 How can people who don’t have any discernment get along in front of him in the future?

As he expected, as soon as he left the city gate, Jiao Zhong followed him and said with a smile, "Sir, I asked the brothers to protect her in secret, and I'm afraid that Miss Guan will encounter bad guys at night, so I've arranged another patrol in Ankang City. I also inspected the surrounding area, and I can rest assured that nothing will go wrong."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "That's good."

Jiao Zhong hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the carriage is coming, why don't you get on the carriage?"

Lin Yi shook his head and said, "It's better to walk around. If I don't exercise, my belly will get bigger and bigger. If nothing else, just having three highs will be troublesome."

 At that time, there will not even be any medicine to lower blood pressure, lower blood lipids, or lower blood sugar!

 Perhaps you may be fine in the morning, but if you lie down at night, you may have a cerebral infarction and be unable to wake up!

It's really a fluke that you woke up. How much will it affect your image if you are lame and have a crooked mouth?

 It’s better to just burp the fart!

 So, in ancient times when medical and health care was extremely poor, it was still very necessary to maintain good health!

 The most important thing is that his lower abdomen has been hurting these days and he suspects he has stones!

There is no machine in this world to shake stones or perform surgery on oneself. The only way is to drink more water and jump around more.

These days, he walks whenever he can and tries not to use transportation.

Mingyue and Zixia have been with Lin Yi for many years. Like Hu Shilu, they also know some modern scientific common sense and know what this "stone" is.

Furthermore, because Sanhe people like to eat seafood, it is an area with a high incidence of stone disease in Liangguo, and people often suffer from stomachaches.

 After joining Sanhe with Wang Ye, he actively promoted the "high jump" method to treat stones.

 They are not unfamiliar with stones at all.

However, sometimes Lin Yi dances too hard, and both of them want Hu Shilu to come over and treat him. Isn't he suffering from hysteria?

 What does it look like for the dignified regent to be jumping up and down in the courtyard regardless of his decorum?

 “The prince is wise.”

Jiao Zhong naturally understands what the three highs are.

 In the words of Prince He, that is a trouble only rich people have!

 Poor people can't even afford to eat, so how can they have the three highs? There is a high probability that they will not suffer from this disease of wealth!

This disease is very fair and only chooses high-ranking officials!

 Poor people don’t need to worry at all!

 Instead, I have to think about whether I will become malnourished and become skin and bones if I eat glutinous rice every day.

 “I still have some toothache recently,”

Lin Yi said very distressedly, "From now on, call Hu Shilu over and ask him to pull my tooth."

If it weren't for helplessness, he really couldn't bear to give up his decayed tooth!

 After pulling it out, there really will be no more land to make up for it!

Gold teeth?

 Forget it, dying from heavy metal poisoning doesn’t seem cost-effective!

Hey, as the most powerful man in the Liang Kingdom, he is helpless when it comes to tooth decay!

Looking at the dark sky, I thought of myself who was lying in a wheelchair and taking medicine every day in my previous life. Although technology has been so advanced, it still can't let him stand up!

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt calm.

No matter what, I have good arms and legs in this life, and I have not become a medicine pot.

 What does a few teeth mean?

 “Your Majesty,”

Jiao Zhonghu stood beside Lin Yi and said cautiously, "Doctor Hu has told Miss Mingyue a long time ago that Dr. Niu in the palace is the best at treating dental caries, and my subordinates will summon him tomorrow."

Lin Yi nodded and said, "That's okay."

As he walked, he looked at more and more lanterns coming from the left and right, waved his hands and said, "Are you afraid that I won't fall? Are they so bright?"

Jiao Zhong hurriedly said, "Hurry up and add lights!"

 “As commanded!”

　　Everybody said in unison.

 Then more and more figures emerged from the darkness holding a lantern on the snowy street.

“It’s easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it’s hard to go from luxury to frugality.”

Lin Yi suddenly sighed, "I'm used to using this whale oil, and I really don't want to use other oil. How can I do it when the road is so dark?"

 Even for making street lamps, he now likes whale oil!

 Sometimes, it is indeed a bit extravagant. After all, it is only a hundred and ten taels of silver a month.

 However, when you think about it, he is promoting the development of navigation!

 Where does whale oil come from?

 Of course it’s a whale!

 Where did the whale come from?

 Of course it’s the deep sea, the far sea!

 Since he promoted the use of whale oil, the high-ranking officials in the Liang Kingdom regarded the use of whales as their esteem.

 You don’t even have a whale to use at home, but you still have the nerve to say you are rich, how noble are you?

Lin Yi didn’t know about other places, but in Ankang City, one tael of whale oil now costs one tael of silver!

 That’s quite expensive!

Any businessman with some brains can make a fortune by selling whale oil and catching whales!

In Ankang City, some dignitaries did something beyond Lin Yi's expectations and actually established the first "whaling team" of Daliang Kingdom.

Lin Yi was very happy and actually wrote an inscription for them, "Take bigger steps"!

 The meaning is very clear, don't be afraid of pulling the strings, he, the regent, will take care of everything.

Now in Ankang City, as long as the goods are "imported" from overseas, Lin Yi will take the lead in using them.

Even those with “wonderful skills and tricks” will be given tax exemption!

 For a time, maritime trade in Liang Guo flourished.

As the Minister of Finance of Liang State, Gan Mao was worried and melancholy. Liang State was already short of money, and now it is a pity that so much money is flowing overseas!

He wanted to object, but he couldn't.

Because he told the prince that seclusion will never lead to a way out. He said more than once in public: "Insist on sea trade unwaveringly", "Whoever dares to oppose sea trade is my enemy", "The world is so big, please get out." have a look".

Even the so-called "people around" Prince He, including Wang Qingbang, He Jixiang, and Bian Jing, will feel ashamed in front of Prince He.

 He Wangye will not give anyone a chance to refute, nor will he give anyone face.

 The attitude is very determined!

He Jixiang and others have been trained by Prince He, so others will not feel uncomfortable!

 Don’t ask, asking means supporting the “open door” policy.

 “Your Majesty,”

Jiao Zhong looked at the street that was like daylight and said with a smile, "Look at it."

 Secretly, there are only so many people in total!

If He and Wang Ye continue to complain about the lack of brightness, he will really have no choice!

"okay,"

Lin Yi said as he walked, "Today's snow is probably going to be heavier. I still have to tell Ma Jie not to let down any slack. We can't let those beggars freeze to death easily. We give out porridge and cotton-padded clothes every day. We can't stop."

Jiao Zhong hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is merciful. This is the blessing of the people in the world."

Lin Yi laughed.
