New house?
When Old Zhu heard these three words, his heart trembled.
This bastard still hid the residence?
Old Zhu was rendered speechless by Zhu Xiong's actions. Why did this guy buy so many houses?
However, every time he exposed his residence, Old Zhu would be excited.
After all, this little bastard had hidden good things in every residence.'
In the first house, there was a Penicilin workshop. Penicilin was a divine medicine that could change the fate of a country. Noble Consort Sun and the Crown Prince had practically relied on it to pull them back from the gates of hell. Even in the recent military report on the northern expedition, Duke of Wei Xu Da was full of praise for Penicilin.
Not to mention, if this place gave birth to the 'Strange Insect Record,' it would very likely cause a storm of reform in the Ming Dynasty.
In the second house, the glass workshop produced glass crafts. In the past half a month, the Ming Dynasty's Craftsmen's Association had already produced a batch of glass crafts a few days ago. Long before the "Record of Strange Insects" exploded, the new glass products produced by the official kiln had already caused a stir in Ying Tian Manor.
A set of official glassware was sold for 300 taels of silver in the hands of Shen Wansan, a rich man from Jiangnan. He even ordered ten sets in one go.
This was a huge profit for the Ming Dynasty's treasury, which wasn't very rich.
A glass workshop was enough to make Old Zhu smile from ear to ear.
This was also one of the reasons why his father didn't beat him up for half a month.
The third residence was the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets. Although Old Zhu did not raid the house, the Imperial Physician Pavilion had three sets of microscopes that were known as the Saint's Eyes. In the past, even the emperor could not recruit famous doctors. Because of the three sets of microscopes from the Imperial Physician Pavilion, countless people came to the Ying Tian Palace.
The Thousand Li Mirror made by Zhu Rong was also frequently mentioned by Xu Da in the military reports. Xu Da suggested that Old Zhu copy the craftsmanship of the Thousand Mile Mirror. This was a divine weapon that could change the investigative system of the Ming Dynasty.
With so many achievements, Old Zhu was very interested in Zhu Rong's fourth house.
What good stuff was hidden inside?
"His Highness isn't very satisfied with the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in making the sewers, and he's been contacting a private kiln to make toilet bowls recently
.”
"But the place Your Highness is taking Miao Yun to should be related to the construction of the Wu Estate!”
"It has something to do with building a house!"
Old Zhu's interest in the new house instantly decreased.
He nodded and said,
"Girl, if you have anything to say, tell me again. Don't worry, I won't mistreat that unfilial son!"”
"That three hundred taels of silver, consider it as Zhen agreeing to accept it!”
"However, the income from the third edition of the 'Strange Insect Record' is for your own use. There is no need to hand it over!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xu Miaoyun bowed her head in gratitude and turned to leave.
After she left the Hall of Heroic War, she went straight to the construction site of the Prince Wu's mansion.
When she saw Zhu Xi wandering around the construction site,
Xu Miaoyun hurried over to greet him.
"
Your Highness, did you get rejected in Xu Manor again?" "
Xu Miaoyun couldn't help but laugh when she saw Zhu Rong.
"Xu Tong, if you continue to speak like this, you will lose your good master!”
Zhu Rong's face darkened as he looked at this servant who was getting more and more presumptuous."This guy is just bringing up a sore spot.
Since he came back from the Xu Mansion last time,
Zhu Rong has been rejected by his unmarried wife for half a month.
This woman is really stingy. Didn't she just kiss me?"
Did he need to bear a grudge for so long?
To think that he wanted to strike while the iron was hot and enjoy the nourishment of love. In the end, he was arranged by Xu Miaoyun.
Xu Miaoyun wasn't afraid of Zhu Rong's words. Instead, she laughed even louder
.
"Your Highness, I think the Princess Consort is a nice person. What did Your Highness do to make the Princess Consort angry?" she asked curiously.”
"Do you want this servant to help Your Highness inquire and let Your Highness know?”
"I was arranged just because I kissed my wife. Can I tell anyone about this? Do I have any shame?"
Zhu Rong rolled his eyes at his little eunuch. He would never tell anyone about this embarrassing matter.
Moreover, you f * cking speak up for Xu Miaoyun all day long. It would be strange if I let you two interact more.
However, Xu Tong's words made Zhu Rong worried.
Xu Miaoyun wouldn't really be angry, right?
After all, women in this era paid attention to etiquette. Was his kiss a little too much?
Xu Miaoyun looked at Zhu Rong's worried face and felt inexplicably sweet.
He still had her in his heart.
Seeing this guy's expression, Miss Xu's heart ached again. She couldn't help but comfort him.
"Actually, Your Highness doesn't have to worry!"”
"Princess Consort is not really angry with you. This lowly one heard from the craftsman that Wang Fei sold eight thousand copies of the 'Strange Insect Record' and earned four hundred taels of silver!”
"In addition to giving out the rewards to the servants and Mister Xiao, the princess consort will give all this silver to the Ministry of Works!”
"He said that it was to compensate for the losses caused by Your Highness 'repeated renovation of the foundation of the Wu Estate!'
"D * mn, is that true?"
"This book can be sold for so much?”
When Zhu Xiong heard this, he was stunned.
Recently, he had been holed up in the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and focused on researching how to open up a market for his glass mirror.
He had not noticed the best-selling news of the Record of Strange Insects.
Eight thousand books. Even Zhu Xiong, who was a modern person, was shocked. Was his record of mutated insects that popular?
It must be known that before he transmigrated, he had also come into contact with some things in the publishing industry.
Even in the era when the illiterate rate was less than 1.1%,
a book that could sell 10,000 copies was barely considered a bestseller.
Xu Miaoyun had actually sold 8,000 copies of the Book of Strange Insects.
This was the Great Ming Dynasty.
Among the people in the world, there were less than one in a hundred who could read. Zhu Rong estimated that there were no more than 100,000 people who could be considered scholars.
Among them, there were scholars in Yingtian Prefecture. 30,000 should be enough for him to reach the apex.
In such a small market, the Strange Insect Record had sold 8,000 copies?
If this was converted to the era he lived in, it would definitely be a million-dollar hit.
Zhu Rong's shock was a great affirmation for Xu Miaoyun.
She added,"The next time, Princess Consort, prepare to print another 10,000 copies!"”
Zhu Rong was completely convinced by his unmarried wife. With such a good wife, why would he worry about the family business?
However, what shocked Zhu Rong even more was that Xu Miaoyun had handed over all her income to the Ministry of Works.
He had not realized it himself. He had repeatedly destroyed the foundation of Wu Manor, which was a waste of manpower and money for the Ministry of Works.
Not only did Xu Miaoyun see the impact, but she had also quietly used her private savings to make up for the deficit.
No wonder Xu Tong said that Xu Miaoyun was not really angry.
Even if she was angry, she would still remember to take the overall situation into account.
"No, I have to make my wife happy!”
While Zhu Xiong was silently making a decision in his heart, he thought about the foundation.
"Xu Tong, come with me to a place!”
Hearing this, Xu Miaoyun's spirits were lifted. She knew that Zhu Rong was going to take her to open a new house.
As for the new house, Xu Miaoyun was looking forward to it.
She wondered what kind of surprise Zhu Fan would give him this time.
"Alright, Your Highness. This servant will serve you at your beck and call!”
"I hope you can still smile after waiting for a while!”
Zhu Rong gave the young eunuch a sympathetic look and led him to the construction site of the Wu Estate.
The master and servant walked through the streets of the Ying Tian Prefecture skillfully. The place Zhu Rong brought Xu Miaoyun to was a little remote.
Just when Xu Miaoyun was wondering if he was short of money when he bought this house,
the two finally arrived at their destination.
This house was a little rundown compared to the previous three houses, but perhaps because of its location, it was bigger than the previous houses.
Xu Miaoyun followed Zhu Rong in and looked around.
This place looked like a special workshop. What was His Highness doing here?
Zhu Fong brought Xu Miaoyun to a very big house.
He opened the door, and
the uncomfortable dust filled the entire space.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
While the young eunuch was coughing, Zhu Rong had already skillfully found a strange cloth to cover his mouth and nose, and
then handed one to Xu Miaoyun.
"Your Highness, what is this?"
"Masks!"
"Put it on and work with me!”
After Zhu Shuo finished speaking, he walked into the inner room. There were many bags stacked inside.
He casually picked up two bags and
placed them on a small cart in the courtyard.
Xu Miaoyun followed suit and tried to pick up a bag.
However, the
bag pressed down on her, causing dust to fly everywhere.
"Hahaha, Xu Tong, a little eunuch like you dares to directly carry two bags of cement?”
"You're different from me!"
Zhu Rong pulled Xu Miaoyun up from the ground. Xu Miaoyun's face was flushed red.
This small bag was too heavy.
Xu Miaoyun's interest was piqued when she heard Zhu Rong call this cement.
However,
before asking questions, he had to finish his work first.
Even though Zhu Rong had taken up most of the labor,
Xu Miaoyun almost collapsed from exhaustion after carrying a cart of cement.
She finally understood why Zhu Rong was looking at her with sympathy.
Was this guy digging a hole just to get himself out of it?
She was just a girl, yet she had been brought here to carry a cart full of heavy objects.
Xu Miaoyun's heartache for Zhu Rong and joy at discovering the new house had
all turned into resentment.
This guy really treated his wife like a beast!
"Alright!"
Zhu Rong, who didn't realize that he had already registered with Xu Miaoyun, pushed the cart out after loading the cement
!
"Your Highness, this thing is called cement?”
"What is this thing?”
On the way, Xu Miaoyun kept asking Zhu Rong,
"You'll know when you get back!"
Just
as Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Xi were walking towards the construction site of the Wu Estate,
two people in the Duke of Wei Estate were given the cold shoulder.
"Please inform them again that Shen Wansan from Jiangnan is here! "
Sir, please go back!"
"My family's young miss is not in the Wei Manor!”
The servants of the Duke of Wei Residence politely rejected Shen Wansan's request for an audience.
"Then…I don't know where your young miss went, please tell me!”
"I really have something to discuss with your Miss!”
Shen Wansan quietly handed over a string of money, and the
servant immediately understood.
"Miss is either at the bookstore or at the construction site of Prince Wu's mansion. You can go and take a look!”
"Thank you so much!"
Shen Wansan thanked the servants of the Prince of Wei and left.
After he walked away, the person beside him was puzzled
.”
"Why do you have to beg Xu Miaoyun?”
"What do you know?" Shen Wansan turned around and looked at his son
.
"Our Shen family is in danger!” New house?
When Old Zhu heard these three words, his heart trembled.
This bastard still hid the residence?
Old Zhu was rendered speechless by Zhu Xiong's actions. Why did this guy buy so many houses?

placed them on a small cart in the courtyard.
Xu Miaoyun followed suit and tried to pick up a bag.
However, the
bag pressed down on her, causing dust to fly everywhere.
"Hahaha, Xu Tong, a little eunuch like you dares to directly carry two bags of cement?”
"You're different from me!"
Zhu Rong pulled Xu Miaoyun up from the ground. Xu Miaoyun's face was flushed red.
This small bag was too heavy.
Xu Miaoyun's interest was piqued when she heard Zhu Rong call this cement.
However,
before asking questions, he had to finish his work first.
Even though Zhu Rong had taken up most of the labor,
Xu Miaoyun almost collapsed from exhaustion after carrying a cart of cement.
She finally understood why Zhu Rong was looking at her with sympathy.
Was this guy digging a hole just to get himself out of it?
She was just a girl, yet she had been brought here to carry a cart full of heavy objects.
Xu Miaoyun's heartache for Zhu Rong and joy at discovering the new house had
all turned into resentment.
This guy really treated his wife like a beast!
"Alright!"
Zhu Rong, who didn't realize that he had already registered with Xu Miaoyun, pushed the cart out after loading the cement
!
"Your Highness, this thing is called cement?”
"What is this thing?”
On the way, Xu Miaoyun kept asking Zhu Rong,
"You'll know when you get back!"
Just
as Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Xi were walking towards the construction site of the Wu Estate,
two people in the Duke of Wei Estate were given the cold shoulder.
"Please inform them again that Shen Wansan from Jiangnan is here! "
Sir, please go back!"
"My family's young miss is not in the Wei Manor!”
The servants of the Duke of Wei Residence politely rejected Shen Wansan's request for an audience.
"Then…I don't know where your young miss went, please tell me!”
"I really have something to discuss with your Miss!”
Shen Wansan quietly handed over a string of money, and the
servant immediately understood.
"Miss is either at the bookstore or at the construction site of Prince Wu's mansion. You can go and take a look!”
"Thank you so much!"
Shen Wansan thanked the servants of the Prince of Wei and left.
After he walked away, the person beside him was puzzled
.”
"Why do you have to beg Xu Miaoyun?”
"What do you know?" Shen Wansan turned around and looked at his son
.
"Our Shen family is in danger!” New house?
When Old Zhu heard these three words, his heart trembled.
This bastard still hid the residence?
Old Zhu was rendered speechless by Zhu Xiong's actions. Why did this guy buy so many houses?
However, every time he exposed his residence, Old Zhu would be excited.
After all, this little bastard had hidden good things in every residence.'
In the first house, there was a Penicilin workshop. Penicilin was a divine medicine that could change the fate of a country. Noble Consort Sun and the Crown Prince had practically relied on it to pull them back from the gates of hell. Even in the recent military report on the northern expedition, Duke of Wei Xu Da was full of praise for Penicilin.
Not to mention, if this place gave birth to the 'Strange Insect Record,' it would very likely cause a storm of reform in the Ming Dynasty.
In the second house, the glass workshop produced glass crafts. In the past half a month, the Ming Dynasty's Craftsmen's Association had already produced a batch of glass crafts a few days ago. Long before the "Record of Strange Insects" exploded, the new glass products produced by the official kiln had already caused a stir in Ying Tian Manor.
A set of official glassware was sold for 300 taels of silver in the hands of Shen Wansan, a rich man from Jiangnan. He even ordered ten sets in one go.
This was a huge profit for the Ming Dynasty's treasury, which wasn't very rich.
A glass workshop was enough to make Old Zhu smile from ear to ear.
This was also one of the reasons why his father didn't beat him up for half a month.
The third residence was the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets. Although Old Zhu did not raid the house, the Imperial Physician Pavilion had three sets of microscopes that were known as the Saint's Eyes. In the past, even the emperor could not recruit famous doctors. Because of the three sets of microscopes from the Imperial Physician Pavilion, countless people came to the Ying Tian Palace.
The Thousand Li Mirror made by Zhu Rong was also frequently mentioned by Xu Da in the military reports. Xu Da suggested that Old Zhu copy the craftsmanship of the Thousand Mile Mirror. This was a divine weapon that could change the investigative system of the Ming Dynasty.
With so many achievements, Old Zhu was very interested in Zhu Rong's fourth house.
What good stuff was hidden inside?
"His Highness isn't very satisfied with the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in making the sewers, and he's been contacting a private kiln to make toilet bowls recently
.”
"But the place Your Highness is taking Miao Yun to should be related to the construction of the Wu Estate!”
"It has something to do with building a house!"
Old Zhu's interest in the new house instantly decreased.
He nodded and said,
"Girl, if you have anything to say, tell me again. Don't worry, I won't mistreat that unfilial son!"”
"That three hundred taels of silver, consider it as Zhen agreeing to accept it!”
"However, the income from the third edition of the 'Strange Insect Record' is for your own use. There is no need to hand it over!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xu Miaoyun bowed her head in gratitude and turned to leave.
After she left the Hall of Heroic War, she went straight to the construction site of the Prince Wu's mansion.
When she saw Zhu Xi wandering around the construction site,
Xu Miaoyun hurried over to greet him.
"
Your Highness, did you get rejected in Xu Manor again?" "
Xu Miaoyun couldn't help but laugh when she saw Zhu Rong.
"Xu Tong, if you continue to speak like this, you will lose your good master!”
Zhu Rong's face darkened as he looked at this servant who was getting more and more presumptuous."This guy is just bringing up a sore spot.
Since he came back from the Xu Mansion last time,
Zhu Rong has been rejected by his unmarried wife for half a month.
This woman is really stingy. Didn't she just kiss me?"
Did he need to bear a grudge for so long?
To think that he wanted to strike while the iron was hot and enjoy the nourishment of love. In the end, he was arranged by Xu Miaoyun.
Xu Miaoyun wasn't afraid of Zhu Rong's words. Instead, she laughed even louder
.
"Your Highness, I think the Princess Consort is a nice person. What did Your Highness do to make the Princess Consort angry?" she asked curiously.”
"Do you want this servant to help Your Highness inquire and let Your Highness know?”
"I was arranged just because I kissed my wife. Can I tell anyone about this? Do I have any shame?"
Zhu Rong rolled his eyes at his little eunuch. He would never tell anyone about this embarrassing matter.
Moreover, you f * cking speak up for Xu Miaoyun all day long. It would be strange if I let you two interact more.
However, Xu Tong's words made Zhu Rong worried.
Xu Miaoyun wouldn't really be angry, right?
After all, women in this era paid attention to etiquette. Was his kiss a little too much?
Xu Miaoyun looked at Zhu Rong's worried face and felt inexplicably sweet.
He still had her in his heart.
Seeing this guy's expression, Miss Xu's heart ached again. She couldn't help but comfort him.
"Actually, Your Highness doesn't have to worry!"”
"Princess Consort is not really angry with you. This lowly one heard from the craftsman that Wang Fei sold eight thousand copies of the 'Strange Insect Record' and earned four hundred taels of silver!”
"In addition to giving out the rewards to the servants and Mister Xiao, the princess consort will give all this silver to the Ministry of Works!”
"He said that it was to compensate for the losses caused by Your Highness 'repeated renovation of the foundation of the Wu Estate!'
"D * mn, is that true?"
"This book can be sold for so much?”
When Zhu Xiong heard this, he was stunned.
Recently, he had been holed up in the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and focused on researching how to open up a market for his glass mirror.
He had not noticed the best-selling news of the Record of Strange Insects.
Eight thousand books. Even Zhu Xiong, who was a modern person, was shocked. Was his record of mutated insects that popular?
It must be known that before he transmigrated, he had also come into contact with some things in the publishing industry.
Even in the era when the illiterate rate was less than 1.1%,
a book that could sell 10,000 copies was barely considered a bestseller.
Xu Miaoyun had actually sold 8,000 copies of the Book of Strange Insects.
This was the Great Ming Dynasty.
Among the people in the world, there were less than one in a hundred who could read. Zhu Rong estimated that there were no more than 100,000 people who could be considered scholars.
Among them, there were scholars in Yingtian Prefecture. 30,000 should be enough for him to reach the apex.
In such a small market, the Strange Insect Record had sold 8,000 copies?
If this was converted to the era he lived in, it would definitely be a million-dollar hit.
Zhu Rong's shock was a great affirmation for Xu Miaoyun.
She added,"The next time, Princess Consort, prepare to print another 10,000 copies!"”
Zhu Rong was completely convinced by his unmarried wife. With such a good wife, why would he worry about the family business?
However, what shocked Zhu Rong even more was that Xu Miaoyun had handed over all her income to the Ministry of Works.
He had not realized it himself. He had repeatedly destroyed the foundation of Wu Manor, which was a waste of manpower and money for the Ministry of Works.
Not only did Xu Miaoyun see the impact, but she had also quietly used her private savings to make up for the deficit.
No wonder Xu Tong said that Xu Miaoyun was not really angry.
Even if she was angry, she would still remember to take the overall situation into account.
"No, I have to make my wife happy!”
While Zhu Xiong was silently making a decision in his heart, he thought about the foundation.
"Xu Tong, come with me to a place!”
Hearing this, Xu Miaoyun's spirits were lifted. She knew that Zhu Rong was going to take her to open a new house.
As for the new house, Xu Miaoyun was looking forward to it.
She wondered what kind of surprise Zhu Fan would give him this time.
"Alright, Your Highness. This servant will serve you at your beck and call!”
"I hope you can still smile after waiting for a while!”
Zhu Rong gave the young eunuch a sympathetic look and led him to the construction site of the Wu Estate.
The master and servant walked through the streets of the Ying Tian Prefecture skillfully. The place Zhu Rong brought Xu Miaoyun to was a little remote.
Just when Xu Miaoyun was wondering if he was short of money when he bought this house,
the two finally arrived at their destination.
This house was a little rundown compared to the previous three houses, but perhaps because of its location, it was bigger than the previous houses.
Xu Miaoyun followed Zhu Rong in and looked around.
This place looked like a special workshop. What was His Highness doing here?
Zhu Fong brought Xu Miaoyun to a very big house.
He opened the door, and
the uncomfortable dust filled the entire space.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
While the young eunuch was coughing, Zhu Rong had already skillfully found a strange cloth to cover his mouth and nose, and
then handed one to Xu Miaoyun.
"Your Highness, what is this?"
"Masks!"
"Put it on and work with me!”
After Zhu Shuo finished speaking, he walked into the inner room. There were many bags stacked inside.
He casually picked up two bags and
placed them on a small cart in the courtyard.
Xu Miaoyun followed suit and tried to pick up a bag.
However, the

In such a small market, the Strange Insect Record had sold 8,000 copies?
If this was converted to the era he lived in, it would definitely be a million-dollar hit.
Zhu Rong's shock was a great affirmation for Xu Miaoyun.
She added,"The next time, Princess Consort, prepare to print another 10,000 copies!"”
Zhu Rong was completely convinced by his unmarried wife. With such a good wife, why would he worry about the family business?
However, what shocked Zhu Rong even more was that Xu Miaoyun had handed over all her income to the Ministry of Works.
He had not realized it himself. He had repeatedly destroyed the foundation of Wu Manor, which was a waste of manpower and money for the Ministry of Works.
Not only did Xu Miaoyun see the impact, but she had also quietly used her private savings to make up for the deficit.
No wonder Xu Tong said that Xu Miaoyun was not really angry.
Even if she was angry, she would still remember to take the overall situation into account.
"No, I have to make my wife happy!”
While Zhu Xiong was silently making a decision in his heart, he thought about the foundation.
"Xu Tong, come with me to a place!”
Hearing this, Xu Miaoyun's spirits were lifted. She knew that Zhu Rong was going to take her to open a new house.
As for the new house, Xu Miaoyun was looking forward to it.
She wondered what kind of surprise Zhu Fan would give him this time.
"Alright, Your Highness. This servant will serve you at your beck and call!”
"I hope you can still smile after waiting for a while!”
Zhu Rong gave the young eunuch a sympathetic look and led him to the construction site of the Wu Estate.
The master and servant walked through the streets of the Ying Tian Prefecture skillfully. The place Zhu Rong brought Xu Miaoyun to was a little remote.
Just when Xu Miaoyun was wondering if he was short of money when he bought this house,
the two finally arrived at their destination.
This house was a little rundown compared to the previous three houses, but perhaps because of its location, it was bigger than the previous houses.
Xu Miaoyun followed Zhu Rong in and looked around.
This place looked like a special workshop. What was His Highness doing here?
Zhu Fong brought Xu Miaoyun to a very big house.
He opened the door, and
the uncomfortable dust filled the entire space.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
While the young eunuch was coughing, Zhu Rong had already skillfully found a strange cloth to cover his mouth and nose, and
then handed one to Xu Miaoyun.
"Your Highness, what is this?"
"Masks!"
"Put it on and work with me!”
After Zhu Shuo finished speaking, he walked into the inner room. There were many bags stacked inside.
He casually picked up two bags and
placed them on a small cart in the courtyard.
Xu Miaoyun followed suit and tried to pick up a bag.
However, the
bag pressed down on her, causing dust to fly everywhere.
"Hahaha, Xu Tong, a little eunuch like you dares to directly carry two bags of cement?”
"You're different from me!"
Zhu Rong pulled Xu Miaoyun up from the ground. Xu Miaoyun's face was flushed red.
This small bag was too heavy.
Xu Miaoyun's interest was piqued when she heard Zhu Rong call this cement.
However,
before asking questions, he had to finish his work first.
Even though Zhu Rong had taken up most of the labor,
Xu Miaoyun almost collapsed from exhaustion after carrying a cart of cement.
She finally understood why Zhu Rong was looking at her with sympathy.
Was this guy digging a hole just to get himself out of it?
She was just a girl, yet she had been brought here to carry a cart full of heavy objects.
Xu Miaoyun's heartache for Zhu Rong and joy at discovering the new house had
all turned into resentment.
This guy really treated his wife like a beast!
"Alright!"
Zhu Rong, who didn't realize that he had already registered with Xu Miaoyun, pushed the cart out after loading the cement
!
"Your Highness, this thing is called cement?”
"What is this thing?”
On the way, Xu Miaoyun kept asking Zhu Rong,
"You'll know when you get back!"
Just
as Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Xi were walking towards the construction site of the Wu Estate,
two people in the Duke of Wei Estate were given the cold shoulder.
"Please inform them again that Shen Wansan from Jiangnan is here! "
Sir, please go back!"
"My family's young miss is not in the Wei Manor!”
The servants of the Duke of Wei Residence politely rejected Shen Wansan's request for an audience.
"Then…I don't know where your young miss went, please tell me!”
"I really have something to discuss with your Miss!”
Shen Wansan quietly handed over a string of money, and the
servant immediately understood.
"Miss is either at the bookstore or at the construction site of Prince Wu's mansion. You can go and take a look!”
"Thank you so much!"
Shen Wansan thanked the servants of the Prince of Wei and left.
After he walked away, the person beside him was puzzled
.”
"Why do you have to beg Xu Miaoyun?”
"What do you know?" Shen Wansan turned around and looked at his son
.
"Our Shen family is in danger!” New house?
When Old Zhu heard these three words, his heart trembled.
This bastard still hid the residence?
Old Zhu was rendered speechless by Zhu Xiong's actions. Why did this guy buy so many houses?
However, every time he exposed his residence, Old Zhu would be excited.
After all, this little bastard had hidden good things in every residence.'
In the first house, there was a Penicilin workshop. Penicilin was a divine medicine that could change the fate of a country. Noble Consort Sun and the Crown Prince had practically relied on it to pull them back from the gates of hell. Even in the recent military report on the northern expedition, Duke of Wei Xu Da was full of praise for Penicilin.
Not to mention, if this place gave birth to the 'Strange Insect Record,' it would very likely cause a storm of reform in the Ming Dynasty.
In the second house, the glass workshop produced glass crafts. In the past half a month, the Ming Dynasty's Craftsmen's Association had already produced a batch of glass crafts a few days ago. Long before the "Record of Strange Insects" exploded, the new glass products produced by the official kiln had already caused a stir in Ying Tian Manor.
A set of official glassware was sold for 300 taels of silver in the hands of Shen Wansan, a rich man from Jiangnan. He even ordered ten sets in one go.
This was a huge profit for the Ming Dynasty's treasury, which wasn't very rich.
A glass workshop was enough to make Old Zhu smile from ear to ear.
This was also one of the reasons why his father didn't beat him up for half a month.
The third residence was the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets. Although Old Zhu did not raid the house, the Imperial Physician Pavilion had three sets of microscopes that were known as the Saint's Eyes. In the past, even the emperor could not recruit famous doctors. Because of the three sets of microscopes from the Imperial Physician Pavilion, countless people came to the Ying Tian Palace.
The Thousand Li Mirror made by Zhu Rong was also frequently mentioned by Xu Da in the military reports. Xu Da suggested that Old Zhu copy the craftsmanship of the Thousand Mile Mirror. This was a divine weapon that could change the investigative system of the Ming Dynasty.
With so many achievements, Old Zhu was very interested in Zhu Rong's fourth house.
What good stuff was hidden inside?
"His Highness isn't very satisfied with the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in making the sewers, and he's been contacting a private kiln to make toilet bowls recently
.”
"But the place Your Highness is taking Miao Yun to should be related to the construction of the Wu Estate!”
"It has something to do with building a house!"
Old Zhu's interest in the new house instantly decreased.
He nodded and said,
"Girl, if you have anything to say, tell me again. Don't worry, I won't mistreat that unfilial son!"”
"That three hundred taels of silver, consider it as Zhen agreeing to accept it!”
"However, the income from the third edition of the 'Strange Insect Record' is for your own use. There is no need to hand it over!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xu Miaoyun bowed her head in gratitude and turned to leave.
After she left the Hall of Heroic War, she went straight to the construction site of the Prince Wu's mansion.
When she saw Zhu Xi wandering around the construction site,
Xu Miaoyun hurried over to greet him.
"
Your Highness, did you get rejected in Xu Manor again?" "
Xu Miaoyun couldn't help but laugh when she saw Zhu Rong.
"Xu Tong, if you continue to speak like this, you will lose your good master!”
Zhu Rong's face darkened as he looked at this servant who was getting more and more presumptuous."This guy is just bringing up a sore spot.
Since he came back from the Xu Mansion last time,
Zhu Rong has been rejected by his unmarried wife for half a month.
This woman is really stingy. Didn't she just kiss me?"
Did he need to bear a grudge for so long?
To think that he wanted to strike while the iron was hot and enjoy the nourishment of love. In the end, he was arranged by Xu Miaoyun.
Xu Miaoyun wasn't afraid of Zhu Rong's words. Instead, she laughed even louder
.
"Your Highness, I think the Princess Consort is a nice person. What did Your Highness do to make the Princess Consort angry?" she asked curiously.”
"Do you want this servant to help Your Highness inquire and let Your Highness know?”
"I was arranged just because I kissed my wife. Can I tell anyone about this? Do I have any shame?"
Zhu Rong rolled his eyes at his little eunuch. He would never tell anyone about this embarrassing matter.
Moreover, you f * cking speak up for Xu Miaoyun all day long. It would be strange if I let you two interact more.
However, Xu Tong's words made Zhu Rong worried.
Xu Miaoyun wouldn't really be angry, right?
After all, women in this era paid attention to etiquette. Was his kiss a little too much?
Xu Miaoyun looked at Zhu Rong's worried face and felt inexplicably sweet.
He still had her in his heart.
Seeing this guy's expression, Miss Xu's heart ached again. She couldn't help but comfort him.
"Actually, Your Highness doesn't have to worry!"”
"Princess Consort is not really angry with you. This lowly one heard from the craftsman that Wang Fei sold
