Chapter 340: Those who are capable must work harder
Ji Yunshu said, "That's what he said in the letter, so it should be true."
Lan Yin was a little excited: "Mr. Shen said that someone sent some to you, it should be here soon."
She didn't understand why Ji Yunshu could be so calm.
That's Liuli.
The young master of the Shen family made colored glaze at a lower cost. Doesn’t that mean they will soon become wealthy?
Although Ji Yunshu is not short of money.
But she had always been by Ji Yunshu's side and knew that many of Ji Yunshu's plans required large sums of money.
It's not that Ji Yunshu is not excited, but she has given the glass recipe to Shen Qingchuan. Although there is no specific ratio, he has many professional craftsmen on his side, and she believes that they can make it sooner or later.
Things that are expected are naturally not that exciting.
"Well, it should be these few days, so you should pay attention."
Glass is different from letters and is very difficult to transport, so the letters have been piled up here for several days, but the glass is still on the way.
Lan Yin quickly responded, "I know."
When Zhao Shen came in, he saw the master and servant talking happily, and couldn't help asking, "What good news happened?"
Ji Yunshu handed Shen Qingchuan's letter to him: "Didn't your cousin write to you? He made glass."
Zhao Shen took the letter and read it through before laughing: "This brat didn't even bother to tell me first."
Ji Yunshu poured him some tea and then said, "I gave him the recipe, so it's understandable that he told me after he made it."
Zhao Shen was helpless: "You are protecting him."
Ji Yunshu laughed and said, "He invented glass. With this technology in hand, he will be the God of Wealth in the future. Naturally, I have to protect him."
Zhao Shen said, "He has a temperament and is quick to react. The glass he makes may not be what you want."
Although he didn't know why Ji Yunshu insisted on calling Liuli "glass", he thought it was different, so he followed her and called it that.
Ji Yunshu said, "Didn't you read what he wrote? It should be pretty close. We'll know when we get it."
Zhao Shen was just giving her a heads-up, but he also knew that Shen Qingchuan would not joke about such things.
Since he wrote the letter and sent the things to the capital, it is most likely true.
"Well, don't make this public for now. Let's talk about it after we see the thing."
Ji Yun angrily said, "Need you to tell me? Even if I saw something, I wouldn't tell anyone. We're the only ones who can make this thing now. It represents a huge fortune. Shouldn't we tell the Emperor first?"
She was still somewhat worried about the emperor, and only with the emperor's endorsement did she dare to make money.
Zhao Shen understood her concerns and nodded, saying, "After I see the things, I will go and tell the emperor. However, it is best to put the blame on the Shen family directly. It is even possible that the prescription will be handed over to the court."
Ji Yunshu had anticipated this, and it would be safer to hand over the recipe.
With the imperial court behind them, no one dared to attack them.
"Even if we give it to the court, it still needs to be handed over to someone else to handle it. It would be better for us to cooperate with the court."
Ji Yunshu has been thinking about this for a long time.
It is impossible to hand them over completely. If she wants to make a profit from these things, she must find a way to go.
"How do we cooperate?"
Ji Yunshu said, "We will produce and sell it in the name of the imperial court. The court doesn't have to interfere with anything, but they can get half of the profits."
"This... don't you feel at a disadvantage?"
This is equivalent to giving half of the profits to the court for free.
Ji Yunshu shook his head. "It's not a loss. Having the imperial court as a backer can save us a lot of trouble. Besides, isn't the original reason we wanted to make money because the imperial court had no money?"
As long as the emperor can afford to support people and soldiers and develop technology, she doesn't need to think about making money.
Zhao Shen nodded: "The people in the court may not agree with this method, but the emperor will agree."
After all, those who stand in the court represent the interests of all parties, and the emperor is the one who wants to balance the interests of all parties and also wants the people to live a good life.
Because only in this way can there be peace in the world.
Ji Yunshu waved his hand: "Anyway, the thing is done, the rest is up to you, you can handle it as you see fit."
Zhao Shen: "I thought you cared about these things, why did you give up?"
Ji Yunshu laughed and said, "How can this be considered as giving up? This is clearly a case of those who are capable doing more work. I believe you will do a better job than me, so naturally I will entrust everything to you."
Zhao Shen: What do you mean by "the more capable, the more work"? It's obvious that you just want to be lazy.
Suddenly thinking of something, his eyes deepened slightly. Looking at the things Ji Yunshu had handled in the afternoon, he said, "You can do it well too. Why do you always want to slack off?"
Ji Yunshu knew what he was thinking at once and rolled his eyes at him. "Who wouldn't want to slack off if they could? You're worried about that mother and son, right? I heard they've been making a fuss lately. They're almost ruining the reputation of the Changxing Marquisate."
Housekeeper Yao is indeed a good hand, and ordinary news cannot be leaked outside the mansion.
But Wei Yuanmin was like a madman and didn't care.
Although Ji Yunshu also felt that her actions were hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting herself by eight hundred, she destroyed the enemy while also destroying herself.
But I have to say, it’s really cool.
At least now, Zhao Heng and Yao can't do anything to her.
I don’t know what Lord Zhao is thinking. Even at this time, he still doesn’t say a word.
Zhao Shen couldn't help but laugh and said, "When it comes to housekeeping, every daughter-in-law would be vying for it, but you're so good that you're so reluctant to get involved."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "You won't divorce me anyway. My position is stable enough. What good is it for a housekeeper to work so hard?"
Zhao Shen was helpless: "Forget it, it's not the right time anyway. If you don't want to care, then don't bother with it."
Ji Yunshu said, "I really didn't want to get involved at first, but my aunt said that after all the trouble the mother and son caused, I still had to clean up the mess. So I thought it would be better to get involved first rather than get involved with them, ruin my reputation, and affect our children's marriages in the future."
Zhao Shen: “…”
He was stunned for a moment before he said, "What did you say? Our children?"
Ji Yunshu: "Well, it's a little early to talk about this now, but the young ladies and gentlemen from the second and third rooms are all reaching marriageable age, so we have to consider them."
Although the two daughters of the second wife will go back to their hometown to observe mourning, it is only for three years, and it does not mean they will not get married.
And the children in the third room are almost of age.
Nowadays, marriage proposals are all about family background and reputation. If Wei Yuanmin continues to make trouble like this, the people in the Zhao family will probably be too embarrassed to go out.
Ji Yunshu was busy thinking about these things, but she didn't notice that Zhao Shen was looking at her with dark eyes, which were filled with attachment that he couldn't let go of even after struggling so hard.
He always felt that Ji Yunshu was unwilling to take over the household affairs of the Marquis' Mansion and was unwilling to have children. In addition to the reasons she gave herself, the more important thing was that she had never thought of staying here forever.
She didn't consider this place as her home, so she didn't care about the troubles caused by Yao's mother and son, nor did she care about the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion.
Just like before, she just wanted to leave and go directly to the north because she was upset with herself.
But now, I started to think about the housekeeper and their children...
