Brother Rong walked around the palace and looked at the canals built by the palace. I was even more convinced that the craftsmen working in the palace were cutting corners and putting less cement ash.

Jia Rong said: "Your Majesty will go check on the people in charge."

The canal should have been constructed at the same time as the dam, and the concrete cracking conditions in both places were exactly the same. I couldn't help but smile bitterly. It turned out that even in the prince's residence, the people below were also bullying the subordinates and hiding the truth from the superiors.

When King Zhongshun saw Jia Rong's insistence, he also had doubts in his heart and asked someone to call the steward over.

"How can a villain dare to do such a thing? They are all used according to the methods provided by the Jia family, and they don't dare to change the ratio privately."

A group of people knelt on the ground and shouted: "Every process in the house has been checked by itself, and there is nothing unusual. The only thing that may go wrong is that the cement given by the Jia family is useless."

After hearing this, Jia Rong couldn't help but shook her head. After saying goodbye to King Zhongshun, he went outside to wait for someone.

When Jia Qiang and Zong Cheng arrived, Uncle Rong asked, "Have you heard about what happened here?"

Zong Cheng hurriedly knelt down and said, "I don't think a villain would dare to sell it to the palace as a good thing."

Jia Qiang also shouted anxiously: "Brother Rong, this..."

"I'm not asking you to come here to hold someone responsible. Have you seen the broken things in the river?" Brother Rong waved his hand and asked Zong Cheng to get up, saying: "I asked you to come here because I have a task for you. I'll go there later. We have obtained the license at the Wangfu Manor and will organize a team of craftsmen to come over tomorrow to build a small dam here."

Jia Qiang said: "What about the kiln?"

"Just set up a team of workers. It won't take long to build such a small dam. All the stones are readily available in the palace. You just need to organize the construction."

Jia Rong looked at the river water and chuckled: "I have been thinking about it for a long time. This matter is not a disaster. Outsiders cannot grasp the use of cement, but you are very proficient. If this place is repaired and its reputation spreads, we can also set up a special team in the future. The team that builds canals and dams. In the future, any company that wants to build dams or canals can also pay for our team to do it."

King Zhongshun who came over listened to Jia Rong's words and hummed: "You know how to make plans."

Jia Rong asked: "Did Thirteenth Master find anything in the trial?"

King Zhongshun's face changed slightly. Although he didn't say anything, he understood in his heart. How could those people hide it from him so easily? King Zhongshun was a little embarrassed at the moment and said: "Since you have taken over this place, you don't need to bother the craftsmen in your kiln anymore. You can just lead the craftsmen of the palace to do it."

What does this mean? Now that we have found out that it has nothing to do with cement, we still want the Jia family to build the dam?

King Zhongshun said: "Cement is made by your Jia family, and the ones who know how to use it best are also your Jia family. But the world is so big, there are many places where cement is needed. Why don't you Jia family send people to give guidance, and all departments and offices of the Ministry of Industry will send Officials come to learn.”

In fact, King Zhongshun even wanted to say that it would be better to ask the Jia family to hand over this recipe and let the Ministry of Industry build kilns in various places for production. It's just that the emperor showed him Jia Rong's letter last time, so he didn't have the nerve to mention it again.

"Of course we dare not disobey Master Chitose's orders." Jia Rong pouted, "It's just that we can't use the Jia family's wages to do things for Prince Zhongshun. Our Jia family will send people here, and the kiln will have to suffer. Influenced.”

King Zhongshun never expected that Jia Rong was actually concerned about this matter. He cursed in his heart and said, "I won't miss them. You will pay for all the losses in the kiln."

Jia Rong just laughed and said to Zong Cheng: "But after listening to the prince's words, I will organize a few veterans to come over tomorrow to give lessons to the men from the Ministry of Industry. This opportunity is rare, and not everyone has the opportunity to teach the men from the Ministry of Industry." As a teacher, if someone disrespects teachers, you can go to the palace to complain."

King Zhongshun's face turned dark, and he immediately remembered the good deeds Jia Rong had done a few days ago. He hummed: "You can rest assured about this."

Jia Rong said: "It's not that I don't believe in the prince, it's just that... this matter today makes me feel unsure. If the skilled craftsmen sent by the Jia family suffer a loss and get angry here, I will feel distressed, and it will even affect our Jia Rong." Production of domestic cement kilns.”

After the two parties settled everything, Jia Rong returned to Shenjing.

On the second day, Feng Ziying and others came to find him.

"I can't tell that Brother Rong is so thin and weak, but he has such abilities." Feng Ziying put her arms around Jia Rong's shoulders, looking particularly friendly.

Jia Rong himself was confused. "What's up?"

"You still don't know about this? When you came back from the palace yesterday, King Zhongshun became furious and chopped off the arms of several stewards." Wei Ruolan clapped and laughed, "Such a strange thing is rare to see. "

Feng Ziying said: "King Zhongshun is the most intolerant of sand. When the Beijing Palace owed money to the Ministry of Revenue, he actually directly ordered the Beijing Palace to sell off its properties to repay the debt, which made the Beijing Palace live in poverty for two years. Now. If there is a scum in Prince Zhongshun’s palace, he will definitely not be lenient.”

Jia Rong was not interested in the topic between the two of them, and King Zhongshun's anger had nothing to do with him.

He saw Xue Pan following him again, and he didn't know how the two of them got entangled with Xue Pan. But when it comes to money, among all the families, Xue Mansion is the richest. Xue Pan's father worked for the Ministry of Internal Affairs before he died, and his family's shops were spread all over the country.

Brother Rong asked, "Why are the uncles here today?"

Jia Rong felt depressed every time he was called, because he was too junior. No matter which family I met with people of the same age, they were all uncles.

Xue Pan said: "The two of them have been released from confinement today, so I wanted to invite them to have a drink at Wanhua Tower outside the city. Brother Feng Shi suddenly remembered you and said that you had been at home for many days, so he came over to invite you to have fun together. .”

Feng Ziying patted Brother Rong on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You can't escape today. Your uncle Wei Shi and I were banned, and it was all your fault. You have to offer these glasses of wine."

Jia Rong didn't understand, and asked: "The two uncles are banned, how come they have anything to do with me?"

Wei Ruolan hummed, "It wasn't because the people from Prince Zhongshun's Palace beat up Brother Qiang and the others that day. I thought about finding someone to vent my anger on you, but in the end I was imprisoned by my master. Later I heard that you sent Brother Qiang away. I begged for mercy in front of the palace and tried to come to you secretly, but I almost got a good beating."

Jia Rong's lips trembled. They were both loyal guys. He smiled bitterly and said, "Thank you, the two uncles are worried."

Feng Ziying said: "You don't know, that day when my husband went to court, he happened to hear some movement in front of the palace. It turned out that it was Brother Qiang and the others who were making trouble. Even he pretended to be sick at home for several days. Now I heard The two old thousand-year-olds got into trouble and heard that you went to the Wangfu Manor yesterday, so we were released from the ban."

Wei Ruolan also said: "Yes, otherwise I don't know how long I will be detained."

Jia Rong did not yearn for fireworks places like Wanhua Tower, knowing that they would not be as rich as the nightclubs in her previous life. However, the three of them refused to let him go, so they had no choice but to agree with a wry smile. They each rode their horses swaggering out of the inner city and headed straight for Wanhua Tower.
