Su Jing's understanding of herself is still very accurate.

He is very confident when it comes to doing business.

When it comes to some scientific and technical knowledge, it is all truth, and Su Jing is extremely confident.

Only when it comes to governing the country and politics, Su Jing only considers herself to be at the level of a keyboard warrior.

Key government, key government, that is really only the level on the keyboard.

When it came to truly governing the country, Su Jing asked herself, she was definitely not as good as the emperor, and the vast majority of emperors.

Zhu Biao listened to Su Jing's words, but did not agree.

In his opinion, the many concepts he learned from Su Jing are of great benefit to governing the country.

In his heart, Su Jing is a capable minister in governing the world.

He still took Su Jing's words as his own.

However, Zhu Biao really couldn't understand the term "keyboard warrior" mentioned by Su Jing.

"Master Su, what does this keyboard warrior mean?"

If you don't understand, just ask. Zhu Biao is still very decisive.

Su Jing was stunned by the question. She spoke too quickly and didn't pay attention to her words.

"Well, let me think about it."

Su Jing thought for a moment and said, "It probably means talking on paper."

You can only talk about it, but it doesn't work when it comes to reality.

Su Jing believed that her explanation was quite correct.

But Zhu Biao said seriously: "Students think that only by talking about military affairs on paper can we have good strategies for governing the country."

"Master Su's keyboard warrior is quite correct."

Su Jing was immediately confused by this set of actions.

Are there any keyboard warriors out there?

Do you usually brainwash your apprentice Zhu Biao? I don’t seem to remember it!

Su Jing looked at Zhu Biao with a serious face and wanted to explain something, but she didn't know how to explain it.

Forget it, I'm tired, that's it.

Su Jing shook her head. Anyway, she was just talking nonsense with Zhu Biao, and she wasn't really running the country. Why should she care so much?

At this time, in the paper mill, the work of the assembly line was extremely stable.

After Su Jing's training and subsequent additions of manpower, the papermaking workshop can now produce high-quality paper stably.

It can be said that the effect of Su Jing's training is very good.

Although from today's perspective, the work here is quite tiring, in the early Ming Dynasty, countless people flocked to it.

Although I was tired, I had enough food to eat and a salary.

Such a place is no different from heaven.

At the end of a tiring day's work, two workers came to the line leader.

"Line leader, I received a letter from my family trustee. My old father passed away. My brother and I have to go home."

Sun Cheng said sincerely to the line leader, and his younger brother standing next to him also looked very sad.

The line leader looked at the two of them and said, "My father has passed away, so let me express my condolences. Although you have only been here a month, I can help you keep this position, but there is no salary. I will wait until the family affairs are settled, and then come here. Is it okay to watch?”

Hearing this, Sun Cheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect it to be like this.

He was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say.

The line leader looked at him and said: "Sun Cheng, birth, old age, illness and death are normal things. It's really sad that my father is gone, but people have to look forward. You don't have to worry about being home for too long. I have your name here. As long as you When you come back, you can continue working.”

"What our boss said is absolutely true. All the people in Lishui County know it, so don't worry."

This employee returned home due to a family funeral, so he did not leave temporarily because he was unable to work. Su Jing retained his position as appropriate.

On the one hand, this is because Su Jing cares about the livelihood of these people, and on the other hand, it is also because every employee who can come in is a good employee in all aspects.

Su Jing is not the kind of person who wants pork chop skin, which is understandable.

However, this matter seemed ordinary to Su Jing, but to Sun Cheng, it was strange.

In this world, can there be such a boss?

Sun Cheng couldn't believe it, but everything he saw in the papermaking workshop these days made him believe it.

So much so that he sometimes forgets his mission and becomes completely absorbed in it.

Unfortunately, he was destined to leave.

"Thank you for your kindness, line leader, but there are rules in the family and you have to observe mourning for one year, so I won't cause you any trouble."

Sun Cheng politely rejected the line leader's kindness.

"Okay then, you go with me to go through the formalities, and you can leave after you get your salary."

The line leader could only say helplessly.

One year is too long, and this is not something he can decide.

"Thank you, line leader."

Sun Cheng thanked him sincerely.

Then he completed the formalities, left the papermaking workshop, and then went all the way to the outside of Lishui County.

A carriage has been waiting for a long time.

As Sun Cheng and the two got on the carriage, the carriage sped towards Yingtian Mansion.

Yes, these two people were the "undercovers" arranged by Lao Zhu.

But they are real farmers, not just guards pretending to be farmers.

They didn't know where they were going or who they were going to see.

All operations are carried out by Gong Weilang in the middle.

Only in this way can these two people successfully join Su Jing's papermaking workshop.

On the other side, the news of the two resignations also reached Su Jing's ears.

Upon hearing the news, Su Jing just smiled.

After working for a month, he left. The reason was that his father had passed away.

It seems quite reasonable, but a bit too coincidental.

However, Su Jing is not worried about competitors coming to steal information, since they can't learn from it anyway.

They can't learn from the staff canteen alone.

In other words, I am unwilling to learn.

This is a real expense, and it costs a lot every month.

Based on the behavior of ancient businessmen, they were definitely not willing to make such "unnecessary" expenditures.

There are also many other safeguards taken by Su Jing, which are probably "unnecessary" in the eyes of these businessmen.

The most important point is that others will not have Su Jing's prestige in Lishui County.

Therefore, as long as the people who come don't cause damage, Su Jing doesn't care.

Forbidden City, outside Fengxian Hall.

Brothers Sun Cheng and Sun Li were completely dumbfounded.

They originally thought they were going to meet some boss when they got on the carriage.

Although they are just ordinary people, they probably know that what they are doing is undercover.

But what neither of them expected was that they would arrive at the palace in such a short time.

And what they are going to meet next is the current Emperor of Heaven, Zhu Yuanzhang.

On the one hand, there is fear, on the other hand, there is excitement.

Everyone in the entire Ming Dynasty knew the name Zhu Yuanzhang.

After all, the Ming Dynasty had just been established, and the prestige of this hero who had defeated all his opponents and won the world was at its peak.

How could the people not know about such an existence?

But there are not so many people who have seen Zhu Yuanzhang.

If you can face the saint, you will be able to brag about your awesomeness for the rest of your life.

Soon, a eunuch came out and said to Sun and Cheng:

"Okay, your Majesty will let you in. Remember, just say whatever your Majesty asks. Don't talk too much, but don't hide anything."

Sun Cheng nodded immediately and said: "I understand, father-in-law, ordinary people must answer truthfully."

The eunuch nodded and moved out of the way.

The two brothers, Sun Cheng and Sun Li, walked straight ahead, passed through the corridor, and arrived in the main hall.

There were no eunuchs or maids in the palace, only Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma.

"Sister, you'll see me soon."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile towards Queen Ma.

Empress Ma asked curiously: "Chongba, what on earth are you doing? You're so mysterious."

"The common people have met Your Majesty."

As soon as Sun Cheng saw Zhu Yuanzhang wearing a golden dragon robe, he immediately knelt down.

The younger brother Sun Li on the side also knelt down and said after his elder brother: "The common people have seen Your Majesty."

They were kneeling on the ground with their heads lowered, not daring to move at all.

Queen Ma was quite surprised when she saw the two common people who suddenly appeared.

"Get up."

Zhu Yuanzhang regained his majesty as the emperor and said to the two of them.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Sun Cheng shouted loudly and stood up tremblingly, while his younger brother Sun Li was still a little at a loss.

"Woke up."

Sun Cheng was a little panicked and could only urge in a low voice.

But Sun Li was still trembling a little and couldn't stand up at all.

This made Sun Cheng anxious and didn't know what to do?

Being watched by the emperor, ordinary people with flat heads may not be able to bear it.

"Don't be nervous. It's not a question of guilt. Just get up slowly."

Queen Ma comforted her softly.

With Sun Cheng's help, Sun Li finally stood up, but his body was still shaking a little.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked: "What are your names?"

Although Lao Zhu ordered this matter, he was not the one who carried it out, so I don’t know what the names of these two people were.

"Your Majesty, common man Sun Cheng, this is my younger brother Sun Li."

Sun Cheng answered cautiously.

Zhu Yuanzhang continued to ask: "Okay, Sun Cheng, tell me what you did, what you heard, and what you saw in the papermaking workshop this month."

"Whether it's something you think is important or something that's not important, tell me again."

After hearing this, Queen Ma finally knew what Zhu Yuanzhang had done.

This is for two undercover agents sent into Su Jing's papermaking workshop.

She really thought that the casual bet she made with Zhu Yuanzhang was actually remembered until now.

Queen Ma has already forgotten.

This Lao Zhu still has such a stubborn temper.

But now that I'm here, it's good to listen.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Sun Li responded and immediately described what he saw and heard in the papermaking workshop and his work content.

He said all this very clearly, because Gongwei Lang had already explained it when he was looking for them.

Sun Cheng didn't know what Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to hear, so he could only tell everything he knew, for fear of missing something.

From applying for the job, to receiving internal training, and then to formal work, review everything you have seen and heard at work.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened very carefully, because it was related to the outcome of his bet with Queen Ma.

Empress Ma also listened very carefully, because in Sun Cheng's description, Su Jing's papermaking workshop was simply a paradise on earth for the common people.

After talking for almost an hour, Sun Cheng finally finished.

Finally, he boldly added: "Your Majesty, I would like to say one more thing, is that okay?"

"explain."

After listening to Sun Cheng's narration, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression became solemn.

Sun Cheng immediately said: "Your Majesty, the common people don't understand the truth, but the common people know that something should not happen to a good man like Boss Su. I hope your majesty can understand clearly that everything the common people say is true."

Sun Cheng thought that Su Jing had committed some crime, so he was targeted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

This is looking for evidence of Su Jing's crime.

Originally he didn't want to say anything, but when he thought about leaving, the line leader could actually keep his position.

He felt that he should say more.

However, after saying this, he felt a little regretful and lowered his head tightly, not daring to look at Zhu Yuanzhang for fear of being implicated.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not speak. He was still thinking about what Sun Cheng said just now and the situation in the papermaking workshop.

This made Sun Cheng more and more frightened and regretful that he did not follow the instructions of the eunuch who entered the house at the beginning.

"Okay, don't worry, Boss Su will be fine. You can go out first and wait for arrangements."

It was Queen Ma who spoke and sent the two men out.

Only Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma were left in the Fengxian Hall.

Neither of them spoke, and there was some silence in Fengxian Hall.

It took about half a stick of incense until the past.

"Chongba, what are you thinking about?"

Queen Ma asked Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked and sighed: "Sister, tell me, this Su Jing, how come he can always do such unusual things?"
