"What? Do you think this reward is too light or too heavy?" Xia Jiuyuan said in a somewhat cold voice.
"It's too heavy! My son, you are doing things for your father, not for rewards! You just want to share your father's worries!" Xia Xingbang said loudly while lying on the ground.
"Then if I don't reward you for my merits, what will the world say about me?" Xia Jiuyuan said in a stunned voice.
"It's not that my father doesn't appreciate it, but that my son thinks it's too heavy." Xia Xingbang said with sweat on his forehead.
"Li Shoufu, what do you think?" Xia Jiuyuan asked Li Xiaozheng, who had never spoken.
Li Xiaozheng already had an idea, he raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty's reward is very reasonable!"
Xia Jiuyuan couldn't help but frown slightly, before he could speak.
Li Xiaozheng continued, "However, since the Sixth Highness thinks it is too heavy! I think His Majesty can first make him the king, and the fief can be left temporarily. In the future, if the Sixth Highness has accomplished extraordinary achievements, he can also be rewarded."
"What Li Shoufu said is..." Xia Xingbang said quickly.
As long as you can still be in Kyoto without a fiefdom, that's even better.
He thought to himself that Li Xiaozheng was really old and confused. If he had the title of prince and could still be in Kyoto, wouldn't it be more carefree?
Seeing this, Xia Jiuyuan said, "Okay, then I will make you the King of Yan. As for the fiefdom, work hard from now on. I will grant you all the sixteen cities of Yanyun."
"Thank you, father." Xia Xingbang said, feeling very unhappy. What he wanted was not the prince.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty," a group of ministers knelt down and shouted.
"If you have nothing to do, please retreat."
...
Inside Jingyang Palace
"What's going on, Queen Mother? Didn't you blow the pillow wind into your father's mouth?" Xia Xingbang said with an ugly face.
Concubine Hua's face was extremely ugly and she said, "I thought...but, your father's soul has been taken away by the vixen in Liyang Palace these days."
Xia Xingbang was stunned for a moment, then said, "Concubine Li from Liyang Palace? How is that possible? Doesn't my father hate her so much?"
"It's not your good aunt who arranged the deal. In addition, that bitch Concubine Li also used some tricks to keep His Majesty in Liyang Palace every day." Concubine Hua said bitterly.
"He's just a rootless bastard who has subjugated his country. Mother and queen don't need to take it to heart. I guess my father is also interested in something new. Let's still focus on Jingren Palace. Xia Wenzhi's coward is not dead yet... and , in the court, according to my father’s wishes... he didn’t want to make me the crown prince." Xia Xingbang said bitterly.
"Does your father know?" Concubine Hua said in surprise.
Xia Xingbang nodded and said, "That's what my uncle guessed just now! He said that judging from the reaction of my father and Li Xiaozheng, they seemed to know something. They even knew that we intercepted and killed Xia Wenzhi. So he came here to scare me on purpose!" It can be considered as knocking on the Huo family."
"Then what should we do?"
"Save them alive first! Now, I have been granted the title of King of Yan, and I am still in the royal city. There are many opportunities for Xia Wenzhi to suffer!" Xia Xingbang said fiercely.

Niutoushan, Qingfeng Village
Lu Qian is commanding several craftsmen
Making a sewing machine according to the drawings.
Yesterday, Lu Qian walked around and found that the speed of manual work was too slow.
If a sewing machine could be made, I believe this efficiency could be improved a lot.
At this moment, I saw Xia Wenzhi walking over in a hurry.
"Your Highness, is there any good news?"
Xia Wenzhi nodded repeatedly and said, "Mr. Lu is really clever."
With that said, he handed a letter written by Li Xiaozheng to Lu Qian to read.
Lu Qian took a look, and it was exactly as he predicted.
"Your Highness, I wonder if you can leave tomorrow... I still have some things to explain here." Lu Qian asked, looking at Xia Wenzhi who was impatient to leave.
Xia Wenzhi didn't understand it at first, but after reading Li Xiaozheng's analysis, he admired Lu Qian
The five body parts fell to the ground.
"Mr. Lu, everything is up to you..."
By night, a sewing machine was made.
Lu Qian called everyone in Qingfeng Village.
Used it in public.
Everyone looked at the sewing machine. The sewing thread was fast and neat, not inferior to the skills of some female workers who had been proficient for decades.
"This is called a sewing machine. In the future, when we have this machine, you will also need to use the scientific production method of flowing mats! In the future, the speed of producing bras will be more than ten times faster..."
As he spoke, Lu Qian gave them another lesson on what assembly line operations are.
Guan Daofeng became more and more impressed as he listened.
She had no idea what Lu Qian's head was made of, yet he had so many strange thoughts every day.
Bras are selling like crazy in Kyoto these days, no matter how many they produce, they are all sold out.
In just these few days, it has brought them nearly 10,000 taels of silver income.
You must know that the annual income of a strong laborer in Daxia is about ten taels of silver.
This is much faster than them stealing money!
After Lu Qian finished speaking, he took out a few more patterns.
The styles of these sets are much more exciting.
Lu Qian asked them to make a batch and show it to him.
...
After returning to his room, Lu Qian began to draw many styles again.
After all, Qingfeng Village is still half a day's journey from Kyoto. After returning to the palace, it is always inconvenient to come out.
Until evening, Guan Daofeng came over with some finished products that Lu Qian had just painted.
Lu Qian looked at these samples and couldn't help but sigh!
What man can refuse this thing?
Lu Qian put these samples in his hands and looked at them.
"Mr. Lu, how little fabric there is? Are they comfortable to wear?" Guan Daofeng was a little confused.
"Master Guanzhai, you don't understand this... The bras I used to wear were designed for comfort and were for women. But this one is different!" Lu Qian said with an evil smile on his lips.
"Isn't this bra just for wearing? Does it have other uses?" Guan Daofeng asked with some confusion.
Lu Qian smiled and nodded and said, "Of course, this is purely designed for men to see!"
Guan Daofenglian blushed slightly, "How can you see people wearing this?"
Lu Qian pretended to be mysterious and said, "Master Guanzhai, you can only know this after you get married."
Seeing Guan Daofeng's shy look, Lu Qian suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart and said, "That's right! Master Guan, I designed this according to your previous size. Please try it on! Let me see." , is there any defect or improvement in this product?”
"Ah...this...is too revealing..." Guan Daofeng was obviously hesitant.
"Master Guan Village, I am just a father-in-law! Don't think of me as a man! I am also doing it for the good of our Qingfeng Village. This bra has no technical content. Once others imitate it, our profits will be reduced. So we must Make breakthroughs in products." Lu Qian persuaded with a smile.
