However, news of what happened in Qiongzhou did not reach her, so Jiang Qinyu did not mention it.

Lu Qingsheng worked at the Weaving Bureau, mainly responsible for various tasks related to silkworms and cloth. At the same time, the Weaving Bureau also took orders from the Northwest Army to make military uniforms and other items for them.

"That's a real shame. I haven't even had a chance to meet Your Highness yet. I can only wait until Your Highness returns before I can pay my respects," Lu Qingsheng said regretfully.

Jiang Qinyu remained silent. Given the current situation, she didn't know when Lu Yanzheng would be able to return, and Lu Qingsheng would soon be busy as well. She would find out then.

After leaving Jiang Qinyu's place, Lu Qingsheng went to visit Village Chief Li's house.

This was Lu Wanqing's suggestion. Others might not know the village chief's status in the village, but how could she not? So, in order to prevent her father from accidentally offending someone, and also so that the village chief could look after him, Lu Wanqing suggested that Lu Qingsheng go and pay him a visit.

The more Lu Qingsheng walked around the village, the more shocked he became; in fact, he was utterly stunned.

On the way here, he had already seen how magnificent the main road connecting Dingshui Village to the official road was, capable of allowing six carriages to travel side by side at the same time, comparable to the main roads in the capital.

He never expected to see such a wide road in such a small place.

Thinking of his daughter's expression, he finally understood that the girl was doing it on purpose, deliberately not saying anything so that he could figure it out himself.

Now he truly understands. Dingshui Village is completely different from what he used to think of it. The village now can be described as a small town.

Because many officials have recently come to the village, and they don't have houses or anything in the village, they have to buy lunch from each other's homes or ask someone to cook for them.

This unexpected turn of events led to the establishment of the first restaurant in Dingshui Village, "Dingshui Restaurant," which was run by Meng Tianze's wife and a joint venture between the Meng family and Chen Shao's family.

With the emergence of restaurants, inns naturally followed, though they are still in the form of guesthouses. Families with large houses are preparing to convert their extra rooms into guest rooms for adults who can't go home after get off work too late, costing only ten coins per night.

By the way, I first heard the terms "going to get off work" and "getting off work" from Jiang Qinyu.
