Chapter 232 Women's Business School
How could Su Shengsheng ask what Xie Xuan didn't want to say?
The auction just started on the day when the governor arrived.
"General, this time, in addition to the Jun family's actions, Feng Bao has also secretly contacted his former colleagues and has been obstructing Madam from laying the line."
Feng Bao used to be a transport envoy, so Xie Xuan was not surprised. He took action for Fan Wenchang and the divorced Feng.
Chu Zhao asked Xie Xuan, who hadn't spoken yet, "General, do you want your men to arrange for manpower?"
In the past, how could Xie Xuan allow others to be so arrogant?
But Su Shengsheng repeatedly told him not to interfere in her affairs...
Xie Xuan gripped the cup tightly. "That person has arrived. Is there any movement?"
Chu Zhao naturally knew that this was a question directed at the newly appointed council governor.
In the past, Nanling had never sent a deputy prime minister to take charge of mining affairs.
It was only because the people on the desolate mountain were not united and each acted on his own that the emperor sent a powerful official.
He quickly replied, "No movement at the moment. I think he just arrived and needs to familiarize himself with the situation."
Xie Xuan nodded slightly and turned his gaze to the window.
Merchants from all walks of life have gathered in the Tangquan Tea House.
The most amazing thing about the visit to Liuli is the telescope that can see objects thousands of meters away.
At this moment, the morning sun is just rising, but the moon is not yet visible.
Otherwise, they would be even more shocked.
The dazzling array of exhibits, after being explained one by one by the tour guide, still filled the merchants with curiosity.
I'm curious about what Princess Xuanming, who got Lu Ban's secret manual and has now become famous, can bring up for auction.
"Hey, have you heard? This wired telegraph has been laid across three states. At that speed, it can communicate across three states in the blink of an eye."
"Wouldn't that be a great profit?" someone exclaimed in amazement.
But others poured cold water on the idea, saying, "Wuzhou is just a barren land with a dwindling population. What's the profit to be made there? And as for Dongzhou and Cangzhou, they only allowed the line to pass through the defense zone out of respect for King Xuanming."
Although some people came here because of her reputation, they did not know the new princess.
Hearing that this person seemed to have inside information, he hurriedly asked, "Why don't you tell us more about this princess."
The man sneered, "It's still unknown what the higher-ups will say about this telegram. But this person is Princess Xuanming. They might not make things difficult for her, but what about others..."
He emphasized the words "Princess Xuanming" and pointed out that these two people had offended the higher-ups and were not on good terms with the emperor.
If the wired telegraph is suddenly taken away, wouldn’t all the efforts be in vain?
After saying this, he glanced at everyone's expressions and saw that they had changed slightly, then continued speaking with a hint of pride.
"Besides, this is the fiefdom of King Xuanming. With this person's ability, he can only rely on men..."
The pointed disparagement made Bai Shuo, who was sitting not far away, frown coldly.
"Let me ask you, if it were you, would you be able to control so many people to work for you?
The Su family has an imperial decree on their heads, and they are just trying to drag some people into this. Don't be fooled."
But before he could continue, he was interrupted by a clear voice.
"You can't even compete with a woman, so why are you making so many excuses? Could it be that the claim of 300,000 mu of harvest at Tianqian Pass during the winter is fake? Or that the claim of 800,000 mu of cultivated land by the Thirteen Pass Army is also fake?"
The one who spoke was Bai Shuo.
The expressions of the merchants who had been hesitant suddenly became clear.
yes!
Everything else can be faked and relied on men, but farming in winter cannot be faked at all.
After all, it is impossible for these hundreds of thousands of people to tell such a huge lie.
And they also saw on the way that they were farming again.
The man glanced at Bai Shuo and disdained to argue.
But he looked at Bai Shuo and said, "I heard that this princess was engaged to Mr. Bai before she married King Xuanming!"
It has to be said that prejudice against women is deeply rooted.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned their eyes to Bai Shuo.
I thought to myself, you guys are quite brave.
Princess Xuanming actually dared to flirt with her ex-fiancé right under the nose of King Xuanming.
Bai Shuo's expression remained unchanged. "Since this merchant knows so much, he must be disdainful of doing this business. Then why did he come here?"
The man didn't expect Bai Shuo to ask him this question, and was speechless for a moment.
When the others heard this, they couldn't help but wonder what it meant.
This person keeps spewing slanderous words here, his brows full of disdain, yet he appears here again...
The man took one look at the expressions of those around him, and his face darkened. "I'm just being kind and don't want anyone to get cheated, so I'm giving you a warning. If you don't believe me, feel free to ask around."
I also heard that the princess of the Su family had just gone to the Jun family for help because her business was in trouble not long ago.
Otherwise, why would she rush everyone here instead of earning her own money? "
"Sir, this is not true. As the saying goes, if you are poor, you can only take care of yourself; if you are rich, you can help the world."
A soft voice came from outside the door.
It was a woman's voice. I thought it was the Princess Xuanming who was only heard of but never seen.
Everyone turned their eyes towards the door.
When a woman in blue walked in, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
They hadn't expected her to be any extraordinary woman.
But this beautiful figure is the one who has bewitched the notorious Xuanming King?
To some extent, it made them a little unbelievable.
Moreover, although this woman was said to be so miraculous, at first glance, she was a little too mediocre.
But they only dared to say this in their hearts, not showing it on their faces. They bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings to Princess Xuanming?"
The woman who entered the room was startled. "The princess hasn't arrived yet."
No one has arrived?
Upon hearing this, the merchants stood up with embarrassed expressions.
Yes, that person is the princess.
How is it possible that there is not even a maid?
Thinking about this, he looked behind the woman.
But there was no one in sight.
The woman at the door saw what everyone was thinking and said, "Princess Xuanming will be here shortly."
No one came?
So, were the words just now said by this woman?
In the room, only two people did not salute.
One is Bai Shuo, and the other is the man who just spoke wildly.
Everyone was thinking that this princess was so arrogant.
I called them over, but then left them here, and even sent a maid over to make them misunderstand...
The merchant's expression was cold, "What do you mean, young lady?"
The woman didn't even look at him. "That's not what I said."
Didn't she say that?
When everyone saw that no one entered the room after her, their faces turned unfriendly.
It’s not her, it’s Gui?
Are you looking at them with your eyes and ears dizzy?
…
On the other side, Su Shengsheng was receiving reports from various places. When she heard this, she raised her eyebrows.
"Okay Qing Ning, I'll dress up again, that's it."
Su Shengsheng stopped her from flattering herself and stood up.
"How are they the same?" Qing Ning didn't let her go.
That bad woman Jun Yao actually dared to bully the young lady.
She was determined to make the young lady stunning and completely overwhelm Jun Yao.
This time, it is the battlefield where the young lady will kill everyone, and there is no room for carelessness.
Seeing that the young lady was not cooperating, Qing Ning asked the maid to help her carry the dressing box and put on makeup for her.
Finally, an extraordinarily luxurious purple jade guzheng waist ornament was placed on the slender waist that could be held in one hand, and the work was completed.
