There are many things that outsiders know only a limited amount.
Only by being involved in it, or immersed in it for many years, can you become clear.
There is no doubt that young Eunuch Wu is this kind of person. He has the foresight to accept the tasks given by the prince, and he also obtains rewards from the Jiang family daughter. Before leaving, he did not forget to sell well and prove his ability.
It wasn't until the back disappeared from sight that Jiang Sheng realized the taste.
But before she could happily share it with her brothers, she heard Chang Yan talking to Xu Mo.
"This little eunuch is quite clever." Xu Mo said softly, "He just responds quickly, and he also knows how to reciprocate kindness."
"It's disrespectful to come and go without reciprocating. He's quite sensible. As long as he is not a chess piece planted by Zhu Changyu and the Ju family, he can be of great use." Chang Yan nodded slowly.
Jiang Sheng was stunned.
She was still immersed in the fact that little Eunuch Wu's identity needed to be cured, and she was proud of her cleverness in giving him the hairpin. The two brothers were already observing from another angle, observing whether little Eunuch Wu was worthy of use.
Sure enough, people with different identities see and gain completely different things.
"My sister is also very smart today." Xu Mo noticed that she was a little disappointed and immediately praised her, "I was even willing to give away the big gold hairpin."
The corners of Jiang Sheng's mouth trembled, thinking that it would be better not to praise him, but he also felt that he could afford the praise.
She put her arms on her hips, and no matter how luxurious her clothes were, she couldn't stop the teapot spirit from appearing, "Just know that my sister is great, and don't tell anyone about it, lest others steal her from you."
Now even Zhang Yan couldn't help it anymore, the corners of his mouth curved up, showing a completely different joy than before.
A person is in the main hall, and even the air is cold.
With my brother and sister here, my breath is burning.
"Ahem, cough, cough." Zheng Ruqian, who had been deep in thought, came back to his senses and walked up to Zhang Yan in a pretentious manner, "Xiao Wu is dressed really well today. He looks sharp and sharp, and the crown is really nice. This The collar is really smooth, and the hem of the dress is very chic.”
"Second brother, just say it directly if you have something to say." Chang Yan couldn't help laughing.
Zheng Ruqian coughed twice more and said mysteriously, "Since you let the second brother speak directly, the second brother will no longer hide it. Is your east palace going to be expanded?"
The East Palace is the residence of the prince. It was last occupied fourteen or five years ago. It is really unsightly without repairs.
Chang Yan is still in the palace in the West Sansuo and has not moved into the East Palace.
"The Ministry of Industry is indeed working on it, but the canonization of the crown prince is urgent and has not kept up with the progress." He answered honestly.
Zheng Ruqian rolled his eyes, pointed to the ground and asked, "Does the East Palace also use this kind of brick?"
Chang Yan had already guessed what the second brother wanted to do, and he nodded while suppressing a smile.
Zheng Ruqian rolled his eyes again, "Then if I deliver high-quality gold bricks, might the Ministry of Industry consider buying them?"
The manufacturing of gold bricks is complex. They are fired with clay from the Jiangnan River and undergo at least six treatments. They also need to be exposed to specific weather conditions. The damage rate is even more horrifying, with three out of five times being scrapped.
The value of the gold brick itself is made more and more precious by contrast.
It stands to reason that the imperial court has a Ministry of Industry that specializes in managing gold bricks, and it is impossible to buy them from private traders. However, the chance of scrapping gold bricks is too high, resulting in a financial shortage of this area, and thousands of taels of silver are wasted at every turn.
The Tian family has also cut back on the financial expenditure of gold bricks. Except for a few commonly used halls such as the Hall of Supreme Harmony, which still use gold bricks, all other palaces, including the harem, have switched to bluestone tiles.
But gold bricks are not magical materials. They will always rot and rot, and they will always need to be replaced.
The majestic Hall of Supreme Harmony, the place where the final examination of the imperial examination is held, cannot let literati students see the pits and pits.
So the gold bricks continued to be fired, but the number went from tens of thousands per year to thousands.
But looking at the financial report given by the Ministry of Industry, it is still necessary to consume at least a thousand taels of gold, and the probability of scrapping is getting higher and higher, which is ridiculously high.
It was rare for Zheng Ruqian to mention it. Chang Yan's eyes moved slightly and he promised, "If second brother can reduce the chance of scrapping and successfully bake three out of five bricks, I will find a way to get the Ministry of Industry to buy your bricks."
One saves money, the other makes money.
Click immediately.
Is this the joy of having connections? Zheng Ruqian grinned happily.
The long banquet also laughed, laughing that the rotten bugs in the Ministry of Industry were about to be eliminated, and the fiscal expenditure figures were reduced.
The entire hall was filled with harmony, until the sun was rising, and the personal guard reported outside, "Your Highness, everyone is ready, and the canonization ceremony can be held."
The crown prince canonization ceremony of the Dayu Dynasty is complex.
You need to salute in many directions, which makes people confused.
Fortunately, they had already been familiarized with each other yesterday. Chang Yan put away his smile, regained his dignity and coolness, and after nodding with his brothers and sisters, he took the lead to walk out of the hall.
He is obviously still so young, but a frail boy of fourteen years old has to support half of his family and country.
But he was so tall, and his body facing the rising sun was awe-inspiring and decisive, with unparalleled determination.
Zheng Ruqian put away his smile, Jiang Sheng put down his arms on his hips, and stared at Chang Yan's back with Wen Zhi and Rong Mo.
"Fifth brother is so pitiful. He will have to shoulder the entire Chongqing Dynasty from now on." Jiang Sheng murmured.
"He shouldn't have been trapped in the palace." Guilt flashed in Xu Mo's eyes.
"I'm not happy at all in the palace, it's so suffocating and depressing." Wen Zhiyun pursed his lips and finally revealed his feelings some time ago.
As a little medicine boy in Tai Hospital, if you are not happy, you can leave.
As the crown prince of the Dayu Dynasty, he can no longer leave.
"Be more open-minded, at least we are all here." Zheng Ruqian clenched his fists, "Xiao Wu will not be alone."
Yes, everyone is here.
I don’t know who took the first step, but others straightened their spines and moved forward seriously and bravely.
Right behind Chang Yan, not far away.
The road ahead is wide and undulating, with numerous obstacles scattered around, sharp instruments appearing at any time, and dirty things falling at any time.
A person may be lonely, but when he notices the looming figure behind him, he is as calm as Chang Yan and can't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
He walked forward dignifiedly and saw the fourth prince Zhu Changheng in blue robe at the next intersection.
"Fifth Emperor Brother, congratulations." The lame young man was a little stunned at first, but soon smiled and handed over his hands, "We will go to Fengtian Palace soon, and the Fourth Emperor Brother will accompany you."
Chang Yan was slightly startled, with a calm expression on his face, "Thank you, Brother Four Emperors."
The two of them took half a step apart and took over, but within two steps they saw Jiang Chengfeng waiting.
Then came Qi Huai, An Jun, Zhao Yuan, He Yunyao, Sun Xiaosheng, and most of the staff in the Prince's Mansion.
They followed him, sending him to the top of the mountain in a supportive gesture.
"With restraint, bow, the prince bows..."
