Lin Yi contemplates policies to address population shortages and the high cost of raising children. He plans to announce new measures, including state-provided rations for children, on his wedding day. Meanwhile, a new residential complex is being built, capable of housing fifty thousand people, with Lin Yi confident it will be fully occupied due to high demand and an influx of merchants.

Of course, Lin Yi definitely wouldn’t go into any mortgage business. Even if he did, he wouldn’t lend that money to ordinary people; he would definitely lend it to those merchants.

As for the rooms that people need, that’s naturally easy to handle. Lin Yi would specifically build resettlement communities for them.

That is to say, as long as there are people currently with housing, they will all have a place to live, and without having to spend extra money.

Even those without a place, as long as they have proof of living here for several years, they will be given corresponding rooms.

Would this then affect the value of commercial housing?

Lin Yi wasn’t worried about that point either. After all, since commercial housing is for sale, it must be different from resettlement housing.

Commercial housing will be equipped with more advanced facilities, more luxurious items.

As for whether it’s all just for show, that isn’t something Lin Yi should consider.

And now as for the first neighborhood where people live, Lin Yi plans to convert it into a commercial district.

Except for occupying a few villagers, all of whom will be planned into one small area, the rest of the rooms will all be for sale.

Moreover, the price of these rooms naturally won’t be very cheap. After all, the Capital City is a costly place where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold.

And following the sales of these homes, Lin Yi will directly shut down the current housing transactions within the Capital City, meaning, out-of-town merchants looking to buy property in the Capital won’t be allowed to for a short while.

At that point, if they want to live here, they can only buy this type of commercial housing. In this way, Lin Yi can maximize his interests.

After all, being a person from the 21st century, he naturally understands what industries are the most lucrative in society, and the real estate industry definitely has a significant place among them.

And now, the construction work is in full swing. With the involvement of cement and steel, the progress is truly changing every day.

And as time goes by, in the blink of an eye, it has come to the night before the grand wedding.

And this night is destined to be sleepless for many.

Among them, of course, is the excited Xiao Zihan.

At this moment, he was in his grand hall, accompanied by Empress Dowager Ye and Grandma Xiao beside him.

Which woman doesn’t want a grand wedding?

At first, because their ages weren’t particularly suitable, the wedding was delayed. Later, when the age was appropriate, and they successfully obtained a marriage certificate, there were so many things too busy that they couldn’t find time to hold the ceremony.

Originally, Xiao Zihan had thought that he might never have this wedding.

However, no matter what, he hadn’t expected that Lin Yi would place this wedding in the current society.

And this wedding had directly become a national celebration day, which, without exaggeration, is something every woman dreams of. No matter how aloof she is, no matter how unshaken by money, such an event that makes an entire country celebrate for you is something every woman desires in her heart.

At this moment, under the assistance of Empress Dowager Ye and Grandma Xiao, Xiao Zihan donned the bright red phoenix robe.

In an instant, his entire temperament underwent an earth-shattering change, and upon seeing this beauty, Grandma Xiao couldn’t help but shed tears.

She had waited too long for this moment, always hoping that her precious granddaughter could marry into a good family.

And this wish was very well realized, as she indeed married her precious granddaughter to the best suitable match.

Looking at everything Lin Yi accomplished, any single piece was something the younger generation could only dream of achieving.

Such a young man, even if you searched with a lantern, couldn’t be found. He never imagined that his precious granddaughter would encounter him.

Moreover, Lin Yi’s love for the precious granddaughter is evident to all; anyone can see he truly cares for Xiao Zihan.

And now, just tomorrow, his precious granddaughter will be married. How could Grandma Xiao not be excited?

Looking at her precious granddaughter in front of her, Grandma Xiao wore a happy smile on her lips, tears of joy in her eyes, and couldn’t help but murmur in her heart:

"Your husband surely must make your parents feel relieved...

After all, in this world, young people with such achievements as today, Xiao Yi is undoubtedly the only one."

Of course, what she thought in her heart wouldn’t be known to anyone, nor would she say it to anyone.

However, although he wouldn’t share this secret with anyone, he did take something out from his bosom and directly handed it to Xiao Zihan.

This naturally made Xiao Zihan freeze, looking at his grandma, and then at the item in her hand.

For a moment, Xiao Zihan didn’t understand what her grandma meant.

Just then, Grandma Xiao’s voice reached Xiao Zihan’s ears:

"Granddaughter, grandma has finally waited for this day. Finally, seeing you adorn a phoenix crown and gown.

This is something your parents left for you, the only thing they left you.

Be sure to keep it safe.

Additionally, do not blame your parents, don’t resent anything. They had their own troubles that forced them to leave."

At this moment, a tinge of sadness crossed Grandma Xiao’s gaze, and upon seeing this, Xiao Zihan’s eyes immediately welled up with tears.

Disregarding the small object in Grandma’s hand, instead, she threw herself into Grandma’s arms.

Tears fell as if they were worth nothing, drip-dropping down.

What Xiao Zihan didn’t notice was that her tears happened to fall onto the small, technologically sophisticated-looking rhomboid matte black metal piece in Grandma Xiao’s hand.

As the tear landed, the metal piece shimmered with a faint gleam.

However, at this moment, no one was paying attention to that small metal piece; hence, none of its peculiarities were noticed by anyone.

Feeling Xiao Zihan’s grievances, Grandma Xiao extended her hand, gently caressing Xiao Zihan’s head, softly comforting:

"Good child, don’t cry. Good child, don’t cry. Grandma will be with you, grandma will be with you."

At this emotional scene, Empress Dowager Ye also couldn’t help but feel her eyes turn slightly red.

As Empress Dowager Ye wiped tears along, Lin Yi on the other side appeared much busier.

First, he listened to a series of procedures from the Ministry of Rites, then voiced all of his own ideas. In doing so, time went straight into the dead of night.

And by doing this, there wasn’t a slot for resting at all, as the ceremony was set to officially start at three in the morning.

Now, it was already two in the morning, with only a one-hour slot, which obviously wasn’t enough time for much.

Especially in this one-hour slot, he still needed to groom, dress, and bathe in incense, as these were rules passed down by the ancestors.

Originally, Lin Yi wanted to push aside these rules, these cumbersome rituals, and directly replace them with the simple mode he desired.

But upon slight reflection, he dismissed this thought in his mind.

After all, the things passed down by the ancestors cannot just be omitted.

Like in the later generations, wearing bridal gowns and tuxedos, those were things done by Westerners, not a true Chinese wedding.

It was precisely because of this that he directly chose to follow the set of procedures from the ancestors.
