Chapter 27-Conferring a Noble Rank, From Second Grade County Duke!
Ancient bronze mirrors were nothing compared to modern mirrors!
Be it clarity or brightness, they were incomparable.
Therefore, whether it was his wife or the other three madams, they all instantly fell in love with him.
Li Jiage looked at her beautiful self in the mirror, then at her handsome husband in the mirror. She giggled and said,""My husband and I are so compatible."
Zhou Ru smiled warmly when he heard his wife's words.
Seeing his wife's good friend's envious expression, he smiled and said,"You are all good friends of my wife. If you like it, I can also order someone to make a mirror for you.”
Madam Wei and the other two were extremely envious.
When they suddenly heard Zhou Ru's words, they were first stunned, then immediately overjoyed. Their eyes lit up as they looked at Zhou Ru and said,"Really?"
"But this…wouldn't it be a little inappropriate?”
They really wanted it.
However, they also felt that this thing was definitely not cheap. Moreover, it was personally made by the Fuma, so they were really embarrassed to take it.
The young wife glanced at her husband and asked,"Husband, is it difficult?"
She was afraid that her husband would be tired.
Zhou Ru smiled and shook his head." It's not difficult. A servant can do it."”
"Sisters, please don't decline."”
"I will never forget that you were always by my side during those difficult days.”
"Especially during the three years that I was sick, you guys were the only ones who came to visit me often and brought me good food and fun.”
"You treat me like a younger sister, so if my husband wants to give you a mirror, you should accept it. Otherwise, I won't dare to take anything from you anymore.”
Hearing Princess Xiang Cheng's words, Madam Wei and the other two nodded.
"Then I'll have to trouble Fuma and Princess.”
Their faces were filled with excitement. They were really happy to have such a good mirror.
Seeing this, Zhou Ru smiled and shook his head.
He didn't think that it would be so easy for a woman to be happy.
However, after thinking about it, he understood that this was an epoch-making breakthrough.
At the same time, he, who was naturally sensitive to business, also discovered business opportunities.
Even the women from wealthy families loved these mirrors so much.
What about the others?
It would definitely be the case.
This was a business opportunity!
Moreover, glass was easy to manufacture. If it was mass-produced, the cost could be reduced to an extremely low level.
If that was the case…
Zhou Ru's eyes flickered.
Although he did not want to experience the life of mutual deception in his previous life, it did not prevent him from earning a little money.
If he wanted to raise his little wife well, he would need some capital.
And now, his money came from the Prince Consort and the princess's allowance.
This was not a good thing for him, who was good at risk management.
He had to have his own financial channels to offset the unknown risks in the future.
Moreover, the system had rewarded him with ten shops yesterday, so he could make use of them.
With his business experience and brains, finding a confidant and giving him a few pointers was enough to earn some money.
Moreover, glass was something that did not exist in the Great Tang. It was something that only he could monopolize.
Everyone in business knew that monopolizing was the most profitable.
With these thoughts, a complete business plan was formed. With a wave of Zhou Ru's hand, a business empire built on glass would appear in the Great Tang.
Madam Wei and the other two looked at the husband and wife who were made in heaven. At this moment, they could not help but compare themselves to them.
There was really nothing wrong with the Fuma. He was really good enough to make people envious.
If she had to nitpick, she might not be able to compare to her husband in terms of status.
Her husband, because of his father's influence, had a title.
Although his title was not high, he was just an ordinary county boy or county child.
However, even the most ordinary noble title meant that he was no longer a commoner.
From now on, they were nobles.
Compared to commoners, it was a world of difference.
And there were many things that could only be done with a title.
Thinking of this, they felt a little comforted.
Although her husband's appearance could not compare to the Fuma.
In terms of temperament, he couldn't compare to the Fuma.
Love people above, can not compare with the emperor's son-in-law.
However, at least in terms of title, it was still better than the status of an ordinary commoner like the Fuma.
Sigh, when they thought of this, they felt a little sad.
He actually needed to find some comfort in the shade of the family that he usually disdained the most.
"Your Highness, Prince Consort."
At this moment, the butler suddenly walked over and said,"The imperial edict has arrived.”
"Imperial decree?"
Zhou Ru and Li Jiage were both surprised.
Madam Wei and the other two, who were comforting themselves with their titles, were also puzzled. Imperial decree? What imperial decree?
Although they were puzzled, they had to go and welcome the imperial edict.
Everyone walked out of the side hall and saw Prime Minister Fang Xuanling and Minister of War Li Jing standing outside.
It was these two big shots who had come to deliver the imperial edict!
Madam Wei and the other two were shocked.
Fang Xuanling!
Li Jing!
This was a big shot of the current dynasty that even the elders of their husband's family could not compare to.
They actually came here personally to deliver the imperial edict!
This…
What kind of imperial edict was it that required these two existences to come together?!
Usually, wasn't it enough for a eunuch to pass down an imperial edict?
Now, these two gods were actually directly dispatched. This was really unprecedented!
Zhou Ru was also a little surprised, but he was shrewd and did not show it.
Fang Xuanling and Li Jing's eyes never left Zhou Ru after he appeared.
Recalling the content that they heard in the Purple Mansion Hall yesterday that shocked them several times, and then looking at the graceful and extraordinary Zhou Ru, the two of them really found him pleasing to the eye no matter how they looked at him.
Especially Li Jing. He wished he could just walk over and punch Zhou Ru in the heart a few times and call him a good brother!
After all, once Zhou Ru's Godly Zhuge Crossbow was equipped in the army, it would be like adding wings to a tiger!
It would directly increase the combat strength of the Ministry of War by a lot!
This was truly a hero of the Ministry of War!
Therefore, Li Jing had a good impression of Zhou Ru.
Fang Xuanling and Li Jing looked at each other and nodded in satisfaction.
The first impression Zhou Ru gave them was extremely good.
"Fuma Zhou Ru, listen to the decree!"
Fang Xuanling opened the imperial edict.
Zhou Ru bowed.
Fang Xuanling said in a clear voice," Disciple: Princess Xiangcheng's son-in-law, Zhou Ru. He is gentle, intelligent, and perceptive. He first solved the famine problem for the Tang Empire. Then, he noticed the rebellion and created the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow. He has made great contributions…"
A string of compliments.
Just the words of praise for Zhou Ru alone were already five hundred words long.
Fang Xuanling felt his mouth go dry.
Madam Wei and the other two were already dumbfounded.
They didn't know that His Majesty was actually so brave when praising people!
What shocked them even more was the great merit that the Fuma had rendered!
What solution to the Great Tang's famine problem?
What detecting rebellion?
The matter of funding the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of War to develop the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow…
Even if they didn't understand these things, just by listening, they knew that this was definitely not a small matter.
There was no need for a five-hundred-word compliment for such a small matter!
But didn't the Fuma just get married two days ago?
It had only been a day or two, and the Prince Consort had already made so many great contributions while pampering the Princess?
This…
They were really stunned.
He felt that today was an especially magical day.
He felt like he was dreaming.
"…Above, the Fuma's contribution cannot be ignored.”
Fang Xuanling heaved a sigh of relief. He was about to suffocate. Was His Majesty praising him?
Why did it feel like a rainbow fart?
Zhou Ru, who heard his inner thoughts, was speechless.
Fang Xuanling complained in his heart, but his face was still serious."Therefore, from today onwards, the title of Prince Consort Zhou Ru will be conferred. He will be the county duke, with 1,500 households of food and a second-grade salary!”
"However, because the Fuma is not willing to be an official for the time being, I think that the Fuma is still young and has just gotten married, so I will temporarily record the Fuma's contribution in the Ministry of Personnel. When the Fuma is willing to enter the court in the future, I will reward him together.”
Fang Xuanling said.
However, everyone present, especially Madam Wei and the other two, was completely dumbfounded.
If the praise from before had surprised them…
This reward made them feel like they were dreaming!
This kind of contribution was enough to directly enter the central government and become a high official that countless people dreamed of!
However, Zhou Ru had actually refused!
And His Majesty had allowed it!
What kind of divine grace was this!
More importantly, just now…they were still comforting themselves, saying that their husbands could still surpass the Fuma in terms of nobility.
But now, this comfort was completely shattered!
County Duke!
The Fuma was directly conferred the title of county duke!
Compared to a county duke He County a county boy, the difference was huge!
This was basically a title that her husband would never be able to catch up to in his lifetime!
However, this was the starting point for a Fuma.
At this moment, they were all in a daze.
The prince consort was not a human, but a god, right?
…………
P.S. Phew, I finally made it!
