Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 768: Three years of tax exemption
With Lu Hao's current powerful internal and soul strength, it was almost easy to help Old General Cheng Meng to recuperate his body.

The Cheng family was deeply moved and grateful when they saw the emperor personally taking action.

Cheng Yujie knew that it was because of her face that the emperor condescended to come to the Cheng Mansion to take the initiative to treat his grandfather. This was a great gift.

Old General Cheng Meng felt that there were many small warm currents in the meridians all over his body, nourishing the withered muscles and bones.

In fact, these warm currents are the effect of thousand-year-old ginseng, and Lu Hao just fully stimulated the power of the medicine.

However, the effect of thousand-year-old ginseng is indeed miraculous. It can actually bring the dead back to life and make the old general glow with vitality again.

Everyone watched as General Cheng's pale face gradually turned rosy, and they couldn't contain their excitement.

After a moment, Lu Hao stopped and let out a long breath.

"Thank you the emperor!"

Old General Cheng Meng quickly thanked him.

"Old General, you're welcome. You are Yujie's grandfather, and that's my grandfather. You don't have to be polite as a family!"

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"My lord, thank you!"

Cheng Yujie pursed her lips and smiled.

"Okay, you are pregnant with the child, so you must take care of yourself. If you want to stay at home with your family, then stay a few more days."

Lu Hao explained softly.

"I understand, I will send you to the Emperor respectfully."

Cheng Yujie bowed gracefully.

……

After Lu Hao left the Cheng family, he went to Jintao Pavilion.

Xia Wei went back to her parents' home to visit her parents today, firstly to see her parents, and secondly to report the good news.

After all, now that she is pregnant with a dragon, her status and status are completely different.

Under Lu Hao's special care, Jintao Pavilion's business is now booming, and it has become one of the largest chambers of commerce in Yandi City.

Xia Peilin was very grateful to Lu Hao. When he heard that he was coming, he quickly brought his family out to greet him.

"Meet the emperor!"

The Xia family members all knelt down and saluted.

"No gifts! Sir, we are all a family, so don't be too polite!"

Lu Hao seemed very easy-going and stepped forward to help Xia Wei up.

"Your Majesty, why are you here? Aren't you very busy?"

Xia Wei asked casually.

"I'm busy, but I promised to come back with you to visit my parents, how can I break my promise?"

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love!"

Xia Wei pursed her lips and smiled.

"Master Zhang, how is the business of Jintao Pavilion during this period?"

Lu Hao turned to Xia Peilin and asked with a smile.

"Thanks to the Emperor Hongfu, Jintao Pavilion's business is very good! I really don't know how to thank the Emperor?"

Xia Peilin responded loudly.

"Why should a family be so polite!"

Lu Hao responded with a smile.

Everyone entered the hall together.

After Lu Hao sat down, Xia Bingbing couldn't wait to ask: "Brother-in-law of the emperor, I heard that you assigned Mr. Yi the task of building the university town?"

"Yeah, I'm giving him a chance to show off his talent, but I don't know if he's qualified? Did he stop harassing you after I gave him the task?"

Lu Hao laughed happily.

"My brother-in-law has his own ideas. He really didn't bother me anymore, but..."

Xia Bingbing hesitated to speak.

"But, don't you feel psychologically empty when no one bothers you?"

Lu Hao joked with a wicked smile.

"Not at all? Brother-in-law, please give him more work, and he will be exhausted!"

Xia Bingbing said angrily.

"You! I really don't know what to say about you. I'm not coming. You're worried about me. Come here, you're annoying me. It's really hard to serve a young lady like you!"

Lu Hao shook his head with a grimace, as if he also had a headache. "Brother-in-law, where can I find him? Sister, look at my brother-in-law..."

Xia Bingbing was extremely shy and held her sister's hand.

"Well, I know that you are the most assertive and make your own decisions. The emperor also wants to train Mr. Yi. What if he is a talent that can be made?"

Xia Wei said with a smile.

"Bingbing, I think Mr. Yi is quite talented, and his family background seems to be pretty good. Otherwise, will you just follow him? Hahaha..."

When Lu Hao said it at the end, he burst into laughter.

"Brother-in-law, I'm ignoring you!"

Xia Bingbing pouted angrily and tilted her head, acting like a little girl.

"Okay, brother-in-law won't make fun of you anymore, and brother-in-law won't interfere in emotional matters. However, if someone bullies you, tell brother-in-law that he will chop off his head. Is that okay?"

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"I know that my brother-in-law loves me the most."

Xia Bingbing smiled, feeling satisfied.

"Brother and sister-in-law, how are you these days?"

Lu Hao turned to look at Xia Wei's eldest brother and sister-in-law.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. We have been helping my father with his business. With His Majesty's care, our business is very good and we are ready to expand."

Xia Wei's brother Xia Zhe responded quickly.

"Expanding business is great! I wonder if you have any specific plans?"

Lu Hao asked casually.

"We want to expand our business to the south, especially Jinling City and Negese, because there will be heavy industry in the future, the economy will definitely be prosperous, and the business of restaurants and inns will definitely be very good..."

Xia Zhe expressed his opinion.

"Well, your idea is very good. I support you in going to the south. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me. If it doesn't work, you can just ask Weiwei to convey it to you."

Lu Hao is still very supportive of this uncle.

In fact, as long as Lu Hao's name was reported, the local officials did not dare to treat him lightly, let alone embarrass him.

However, his idea gave Lu Hao some new ideas.

"Jinling City and Negese will be the main industrial cities in the future. I think we can give you a three-year tax exemption policy so that you merchants can settle in."

Lu Hao suddenly said.

"What? Three years of tax exemption?"

Xia Zhe said in surprise.

"What you just said reminded me that if we want to develop two major industrial cities, only better tax policies can stimulate economic development..."

Lu Hao explained with a smile.

"So, the eldest brother gave the emperor ideas for economic development, but did he make a contribution?"

Xia Wei exclaimed.

"Of course it's a meritorious service."

Lu Hao nodded slightly.

"The emperor has always made clear rewards and punishments. Since he has made meritorious service, should he be rewarded?"

Xia Wei quickly took advantage of the situation.

"Okay, okay, tell me, what reward do you want?"

Lu Hao could only nod in agreement.

"Brother and sister-in-law, tell me quickly, what reward do you want?"

Xia Wei quickly urged.

"The emperor is my wife's younger brother. He wants to become an official in the court. I wonder if the emperor can..."

Xia Zhe hesitated to speak, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Okay! I agreed and asked him to report to the Ministry of Civil Affairs tomorrow. However, he has to start from a junior official. I will not reuse him until I see his talent."

Lu Hao readily agreed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The sister-in-law immediately stood up and bowed.

"Sister-in-law, you're welcome. Don't talk to each other as a family. Let your brother do his job well."

Lu Hao warned with a smile.
