He was almost dying of laughter!
After hundreds of years of exploration and countless failures and setbacks, the Gu family finally cultivated an elite surveying team. This technology was coveted even by the royal family.
Normally, the royal family did not allow the private sale of ironware, but the royal family did not have excellent surveying technology, so they had to cooperate with the Gu family.
Mining is easy, but surveying is difficult.
If the measurement is not correct, the mountain will be dug in vain and the losses caused will be huge.
His Gu family makes a living from this technology, but Qin Ye just said, "We collect it ourselves." What an ignorant woman! She doesn't even think before she speaks.
The emperor smiled awkwardly:
"Seventh Old Wife, digging a mountain requires too much manpower, material resources, financial resources and time. Not every mountain can be dug casually."
The Dongling Kingdom is so vast with so many mountains. The annual income of the national treasury is needed to support the army, court officials, and allocate funds for disaster relief and help the people. There is simply not enough money to support the team to go mining.
Master Gu joked:
"Princess Chen, you don't think that as long as there is a mountain, there will be iron ore if you dig it randomly, right?"
A woman is a woman.
Long hair, short knowledge.
Qin Ye received the sarcastic look from Master Gu Er, sat there calmly, and said calmly:
"Father, what I mean is that we survey it ourselves."
emperor:"?"
If he could survey on his own, would he still be forced to cooperate with the Gu family?
I haven't seen you for a few days. What nonsense is the seventh brother's wife talking about?
Master Gu almost died of laughter. "Who? Who can survey it?"
His Gu family has trained a survey team for hundreds of years. Who can compare to it?
Qin Ye raised his eyelids, glanced at him coldly, and said one word: "I."
The emperor was stunned: "You?"
Master Gu: "You??"
Defu and a group of young eunuchs dropped their jaws and looked at Princess Chen as if they had seen a ghost.
"You said it was you?" Master Gu looked her up and down, laughing until tears came out, "Princess Chen, did I hear you right? You just said it was you? You can survey? Am I deaf?"
The emperor thought that it might be because he was getting old and had heard it wrong.
Qin Ye was a woman who didn't even understand what mining was, let alone surveying.
Everyone looked at Qin Ye with strange eyes.
No one believed it, and many even made fun of it.
Master Gu slapped his hands on the table and laughed, "That old man is right. Pregnancy will make people stupid. Now it seems that it is true. Princess Chen is carrying the emperor's grandson in her belly. Does she really think she can fly to the sky? Hahaha!"
Just because of her?
Even ten Qin Ye are not enough to compare with the Gu family's survey team.
Where did she get the courage to speak so boldly?
"Princess Chen, you said such things in front of so many people. You are not afraid of making a fool of yourself. No wonder you want to marry your maid to the young marquis. It turns out that your maid is just like you, with long hair and little knowledge. You don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is. Hahaha!"
Master Gu spoke out without reservation, mocking Qin Ye directly.
When the emperor heard this, he looked quite displeased.
Isn't it the same as slandering him if the Gu family slanders Qin Ye in front of him? What's more annoying is that he needs the Gu family's help, so even if he is unhappy, he can't just get angry.
Qin Ye remained calm, "What if I can survey the mine?"
"Hahaha!" Master Gu died of laughter. "I'm not saying anything, Princess Chen, why are you so against my Gu family? Not only do you want to snatch my daughter's position as the wife of the young marquis, but you also want to compete with me in mining. Do you like to steal other people's things so much?"
"Then do you know that before you rob something, you should first weigh your own strength? Do you think that just because you rely on King Chen, King Chen is omnipotent?"
Do you think you can do whatever you want just by relying on King Chen?
Master Gu waved his hand and said condescendingly:
"Even the emperor doesn't know how to survey, let alone Prince Chen? I advise you not to make a fool of yourself. Just go home and have the baby in peace. Otherwise, everyone will laugh at you. It will be hard for you to think about it. What if you want to hang yourself or something? There will be two deaths, and I, Master Gu, will not be held responsible. Hahaha!"
