Chapter 159 You are all heroes of Zhaoguo
The ministers in the court were having a great time talking about this matter.
Especially for military generals, the imperial court used to give some pensions to soldiers who died, but there was no arrangement for those soldiers who retired due to injuries.
Now the plan proposed by the Empress Xianfei will really benefit those veterans.
And from what the emperor said, one such medicinal herb plantation will be opened in every city, which means that all the veterans of Zhao State who retired due to injuries will have someone to rely on in their old age.
This is undoubtedly the best arrangement for those soldiers.
You have to know that before this, those veterans did not live a happy life, and some were even excluded and abandoned by their families. Now that the court has made such an arrangement, it is really great.
Chu Junze felt very happy as he looked at the excited faces of the generals.
Speaking of the medicinal herb plantation that is under construction, he received a secret letter from the secret guard last night, saying that they had found several precious medicinal herbs suitable for growing in Zhao State, and they had begun trying to cultivate them.
Chu Junze was overjoyed. If he could successfully cultivate these medicinal herbs, it would not only solve the shortage of medicinal herbs, but also bring a considerable income to Zhao State.
So after the court was dismissed, he immediately summoned the imperial doctors and pharmacists to discuss how to better use these medicinal materials.
Many people offered suggestions, some suggested making it into pills, and others suggested developing a medicinal diet recipe.
Shen Zhuo stood aside, listening to their words, feeling quite relieved.
It really paid off that he had trained these old guys. At least now the strategies they came up with were feasible and very useful.
After listening to their words, Chu Junze kept Shen Zhuo and had a secret talk with him.
Chu Junze decided to go to the plantation in person to check the progress, and told the imperial doctors and pharmacists to go all out to ensure the quality and efficacy of the medicinal materials.
After all, these medicinal herbs will be planted on a large scale in the future, and they are of great importance to the health of the people.
In the afternoon, Chu Junze brought Su Qianqian and the three little ones to the plantation.
At this time, the park was bustling with workers working hard.
Workers at the foot of the mountain are building houses according to the design drawings, while retired veterans in the fields are turning the soil and digging canals.
Looking at those wounded and disabled veterans, Su Qianqian felt sad, but fortunately her plan could help them.
Chu Junze looked at them and felt sad. They fought on the battlefield and were covered with wounds for the peace of Zhao State.
Now that they are here, the court will make proper arrangements for them.
The two little darlings couldn't wait to come down. It was a rare opportunity for them to leave the palace, and when they saw these new things, their eyes could hardly take it all in.
"Let's play!" Erbao said anxiously. He had already set his eyes on the bricklayer's mud.
Hearing this, Sanbao also became anxious: "Father Fang (Father Emperor), Mother Hui (Mother Concubine), come down (come down)!"
Only Dabao continued to be quietly held by Zhishu. His big eyes were watching the masters laying bricks attentively.
Su Qianqian looked at Chu Junze gently, and finally he agreed to let Zhishu, Zhihua and Zhiqi take the three of them out to play.
He took Su Qianqian to see the disabled veterans.
Seeing that they were working hard but had light in their eyes, he swallowed the words he was about to say.
What Qianqian said was right. As long as they were given a chance to continue to shine for Zhaoguo, they would be willing to work here because of their sincere patriotism.
Feeling his excitement, Su Qianqian coughed lightly.
As for the veterans in the fields, they all knew that apart from supplying these medicinal materials to the clinic, the rest would be sent to the military camps on the border, so they were all very motivated.
Chu Junze took a deep breath, calmed down, turned to Su Qianqian and said, "Qianqian, thank you for your plan, you did a great job.
These veterans are the heroes of Zhaoguo, and we must take good care of them."
Su Qianqian smiled and nodded, "I know, so we still have to keep working hard."
Chu Junze agreed and said, "Well, let's all continue to work hard together!"
Suddenly he thought of the free private schools funded by the imperial court. There are already children studying there. He hopes that in the future those children can not only learn knowledge, but also understand the efforts and sacrifices of their ancestors. "
In this way, the two walked and discussed future plans.
At this time, an old soldier came over with a cane in the distance and saluted respectfully.
"Your Majesty, thank you for giving us veterans a chance to shine again for the Kingdom of Zhao. We will work hard and live up to your expectations!"
Chu Junze and Su Qianqian looked at him with emotion, their hearts filled with relief.
"No need to be polite. I also want to thank you for coming here. You are all heroes of Zhao State. If you need anything, please come to me."
Then, accompanied by the pharmacist, Chu Junze visited the medicinal seedlings they cultivated.
He carefully observed the growth of each medicinal herb and asked the person in charge questions about planting techniques and management methods.
During the inspection, Chu Junze discovered some problems, such as the growing environment of some medicinal materials was not ideal and there were defects in the irrigation system.
He immediately instructed the pharmacist to record it and make improvements as soon as possible.
After leaving the plantation, Chu Junze was very satisfied with the inspection.
He knows very well that if these medicinal materials are to truly benefit the people, it requires everyone's joint efforts.
At the same time, he also decided to increase support for the plantation after returning to the palace, and urged the imperial doctors and pharmacists to further study the medicinal value in order to achieve greater results as soon as possible.
Although time was a bit tight, fortunately the builders were very efficient and the houses for the workers on the plantation had already been built.
The residences designed by Su Qianqian at the beginning were all one-household-one-yard type, in order to give them enough space so that they could bring their families with them if necessary.
But the prerequisite is that their family members must have good character.
Just as they were about to go see the progress at the pharmacy, as they got closer, they saw three little babies.
Upon closer inspection, only the eldest child was still clean, while the second and third children were so ugly that it was unbearable to look at them.
They looked like they had fallen into a mud pit and were fished out, with their clothes all dirty.
Chu Junze and Su Qianqian looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
They walked forward quickly, Su Qianqian squatted down, and asked gently: "What's wrong with you two? Why are you so dirty?"
