"Hmph, why are you here with the Ai family?"
Luo Qingshuang had a straight face and seemed unhappy.
Zhao An understood the reason as soon as his eyes rolled, and he took the initiative to say: "There is a situation on your Majesty's side. Your Majesty found a master craftsman from nowhere and made gunpowder. The explosives made into them are extremely powerful. It's so scary."
"Master Craftsman?"
Luo Qingshuang gritted her teeth.
The dog slave was too smart and blocked her mouth as soon as he came up.
"I don't know where this master craftsman came from, but don't worry, Queen Mother. Even if I risk my life, I will definitely help you find that guy and ask him to donate the explosives."
Zhao An expressed his loyalty solemnly, but Luo Qingshuang's smile looked even more ugly.
She really wanted to slap this shameless little thing to death. Wuji had just said that this kid would shirk and procrastinate, but he guessed right!
"Eunuch Zhao's loyalty is well known to the Ai family. It will be your job to investigate this matter. As long as you can find the explosive formula, the Ai family will definitely let you get what you want."
Luo Qingshuang finally suppressed her anger, picked up Zhao An's big paw and placed it on her thigh, the meaning was self-evident.
As long as there is an explosive formula, the dog slave can attack the master as much as he wants.
Not to mention, Zhao An barely suppressed the evil fire when he saw her rare slutty look, but then he thought about the empress's cute and perfect face, so he suppressed the churning evil fire and made a promise with a smile. .
The two parties exchanged controversies, and Luo Qingshuang said: "The Ai family wants to visit the new city. How about you making arrangements?"
"ah?"
Zhao An was caught off guard.
"Very embarrassed?" Luo Qingshuang raised her eyebrows, her pure face showing displeasure.
Zhao An said angrily: "I'm just afraid that the news will leak out and cause you trouble."
"Ms. Chen is so distracted by you now that she has no time to take care of the Ai family's business. You can make arrangements. The Ai family will go to the new city tomorrow to have a good look."
"Here..."
She put it on the shelf, even if Zhao An disagreed.
There was just one small request: she couldn't dress so richly, and she had to change her identity.
"what ever."
Luo Qingshuang waved her hand, indicating that she could retreat.
Zhao An touched his nose, and before leaving, he put his hand into her robe and touched her slippery thigh.
Luo Qingshuang shivered uncontrollably, and kicked her foot in anger.
But Zhao An took the opportunity to grease his feet and ran away.
"Damn slave, sooner or later Aijia will..."
Luo Qingshuang cursed angrily but did not continue.
She was very fond of Zhao An, because he was very capable in doing things, and even those high officials in the imperial court were not as good as him, but when it came to his daring actions, he was even more extraordinary.
I don’t know where this shameless temper comes from.
The next morning.
Luo Qingshuang changed into normal clothes, while Wu Tongue drove out of the palace with an old slave.
In the outer city, Zhao An changed into Zhou Huang's appearance, waited near Cuilan Garden, and shamelessly got into the carriage.
Today, Luo Qingshuang is dressed in an ordinary woman's attire, but she is full of poetry and calligraphy. In addition to her high position, she has a lingering sense of detachment. Just one look can give people a sense of oppression.
Zhao An asked curiously: "How many years has it been since the Queen Mother left the palace?"
Luo Qingshuang thought for a while, "It's been more than ten years. During festivals, I would stand on a high place and watch the fireworks from a distance."
"Your Majesty, won't you accompany you for a walk out of the palace?" Zhao An deliberately provoked, and Luo Qingshuang snorted, "Your Majesty is working hard on state affairs, how can the Ai family cause trouble for him? When you go out for a walk today, you should relax and take a look. Let’s see if your papermaking workshop has deceived the Ai family.”
Zhao An heard this and simply told her about the scenery along the way.
Luo Qingshuang's eyes became dazed.
It's so cold at high places, dancing to clear the shadows, it doesn't seem like you're in the human world.
She even forgot about her life as an ordinary person.
Leave the Imperial City and enter the official road to Dagu River, and then there is the cement road.
Luo Qingshuang was shocked when she saw such a road for the first time.
The carriage didn't feel bumpy at all when walking on it. No wonder Wuji praised the construction of the new city, and now she was looking forward to it.
After a short journey, we saw the new city in the distance.
Because of the pre-sale of land, people came and went, and the area was extremely prosperous. Even in the early stages of construction, there was a scene of peace and prosperity.
Moreover, there are no more refugees here. The people who fled originally have been properly resettled and even allocated houses by the Daxia Youth League.
There were smiles on their faces.
Luo Qingshuang was surprised: "Are these the original refugees?"
"Yes."
Zhao An also felt emotional that if the empress could take back her power, with her character, she would definitely get rid of the evildoers and return the world to a peaceful world. She might also be able to sprout the next generation and speed up the emergence of technology. At least she could become the foundation of technology. people.
Luo Qingshuang opened the car curtain and stared at the scene outside.
The roads in the new city extend in all directions, and the shops in the city are not like those in the capital. They have square towers, which are indescribably weird, but give people a sense of weight.
Some businesses are open for business and there are many people coming and going.
This is the investment strategy that Zhao An asked Qianyu to implement.
As more and more people discover the benefits of the new city, people on both sides of the Dagu River come to seek refuge. With their participation, the projects and shops in the new city can prosper, and trade with other cities can be increased. This is all money.
It is no exaggeration to say that once the construction of the industrial park is completed, just one new city will bulge the empress's wallet again, and the tax revenue will even exceed that of other states and cities combined, but this will involve the reform of tax laws.
Zhao An didn't have that ability, so he gave Luo Qingshuang the method of making salt and asked her to stand in front of the thunder. However, she had not agreed yet. She must be tricked again to make her the vanguard of the reform of commercial tax.
The carriage arrived at a villa.
This is the new residence arranged by Qian Yu for Zhao An. It is very beautifully decorated, with an Hui-style architectural style, and flowers and plants are planted in the yard. It is probably nothing more than a palace in the capital.
It is no exaggeration to say that this house is the best piece of land in the entire new town planning.
"You will enjoy it."
Luo Qingshuang looked at everything in the courtyard and saw some servants.
These people are the eunuchs and maids who were just sent out yesterday, and they are all from the black factory.
They are slaves on the surface, but in fact they are in the house, enough for Qianyu to take them for training.
In addition, there are people arranged by Qian Yu to protect and patrol the area, so you don't have to worry about anyone approaching to investigate.
Next, we need to take Luo Qingshuang on a tour of the new city to see what her plans are.
"Go to the sales hall first."
Luo Qingshuang is still thinking about the gold and silver in the new city.
Land is fundamental no matter what era it is placed in, but the sky-high price of land in Xincheng is inseparable from Zhao An's planning. It is also a success story that cannot be replicated by other states and counties.
Today is the first phase of the land pre-sale. The hall is overcrowded. Businessmen from nearby counties are red-eyed. Even if they have money, they can't spend it. There are too many people and they need to queue up.
