After all the materials were combined, the finished piece of glass, as it cooled, began to reveal its exquisite beauty.
After confirming it with his own eyes, Ning Ye praised him highly, saying, "Zifeng, you are a genius, a real genius. There are countless people in the world who will be surpassed by you, and countless people who can catch up with you."
The system's tools are indeed very useful, but they are only suitable for small-scale battles. In ancient times, however, the suicides of thousands or even tens of thousands of people were a small force that could hardly change the overall situation.
If Zhang Zifeng can truly learn everything taught in those books, it will bring about earth-shattering changes, after all, it is the culmination of knowledge from countless generations.
Any practical technology, if perfected and put into practice, will bring about revolutionary changes to the present.
Ning Ye suppressed his excitement and said, "Zifeng, from now on you need to start studying the things in that book at an accelerated pace. I will give you a test every month. As long as you pass, I can grant you one request."
Zhang Zifeng said excitedly, "Really? Brother Ning, this exam can't be that hard, otherwise you wouldn't have given me such a good reward."
Ning Ye nodded and said, "It will indeed be difficult, but I will definitely conduct the exam according to your learning progress. I will not make things difficult for you in the slightest. You just need to be prepared."
Zhang Zifeng clenched her little fist and said, "Since Brother Ning has already made a request to me, I would also like to make a request to Brother Ning. From now on, Xiao Wu can stay here with me. There are some things I need someone to do, and some places cost a lot of money."
Ning Ye waved his hand and said, "From now on, this guy will be your source of income. If he dares to disobey, just tell me and I'll deal with him. Also, you can receive a thousand taels of silver from me every month. I won't ask you how you'll use it, as long as you can pass the exam."
Zhang Zifeng's eyes were practically glued to the money. When had he ever heard of such a huge sum of money, and now he received it every month, and could spend it as he pleased?
This was undoubtedly a terrifying temptation for a little girl, but Zhang Zifeng was determined in her heart that she could resist such temptation and would never be easily defeated by it.
Since Ning Ye was willing to give her so much money, Zhang Zifeng knew it was all for her studies, and she absolutely could not spend it on anything else. Yes, absolutely not.
Ning Ye then chatted with Zhang Zifeng for a while, but he subtly steered the conversation toward steelmaking.
It's a pity that Zhang Zifeng only seems to learn things very quickly when she's interested in them. She seems to completely fail to understand things she's not interested in. I don't know if she's faking it or if it's really true.
Before leaving, Ning Ye repeatedly instructed Xiao Wu that Zhang Zifeng must not be allowed to have any problems. He told Xiao Wu to call for backup immediately if anything happened, and to protect Zhang Zifeng at all costs.
In high spirits, Ning Ye left and immediately went back to the mansion, where he ate a lavish breakfast.
If there are things to deal with today, it's not just Zhang Zifeng's matter; Chen Santong and various partners will also be here today. However, Ning Ye will only be a supporting character at most, since the real protagonist is Lin Qinshu.
A promise is a promise, and a real man would never go back on his word.
Having said that he would leave everything to Lin Qinshu, Ning Ye would certainly not interfere. Of course, if his beloved wife asked him for help, he would not stand idly by.
The restaurant was naturally set at Yingchunlou Restaurant, where Chen Santong and his other partners were already waiting in the best private room.
However, the group was now chatting animatedly. Since obtaining the production method, Chen Santong had begun to divide the clan into several parts.
Relying on his accumulated connections and substantial funds, Chen Santong had already laid the foundation for starting his own business in a short period of time. Now, he needed to gradually and completely separate himself from the Chen family, and only in this way could he truly prevent other things from affecting him.
The other partners were naturally very happy as well, since the soap business had indeed exceeded their expectations; some unused items could be turned into a lot of money in the blink of an eye.
Not to mention the soap business, which has yet to reach its true limit and may even have room for further growth. How could they not be happy about that?
When money blinds them, they are unaware of their own actions and may become deeply entangled in it. Moreover, their main motivation for coming here is to obtain the genuine production method.
After all, they had heard about Chen Santong's story. If they could really become as wealthy as Chen Santong, they wouldn't recommend shifting all their focus to the soap business.
With the arrival of today's true protagonist, Lin Qinshu's attire was quite impressive. Even in a place like this, Ning Ye carefully selected the best clothes for Lin Qinshu's daily wear. He even secretly obtained a batch of the Floating Light Brocade from the Sun family, and the Floating Light Brocade she was wearing today was precisely that.
As the saying goes, clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse. This outfit alone was enough to make these partners unable to take their eyes off it. After all, even with their wealth, they didn't have the ability to get their hands on the Radiant Brocade.
Ning Ye followed silently behind, like a loyal bodyguard, never trying to steal the limelight from Lin Qinshu.
Lin Qinshu spoke up, "You all seemed to be having a great time chatting just now. Why have you stopped talking as soon as I arrived? Have I perhaps disturbed your enjoyment?"
Chen Santong smiled and said, "How could that be? It's just that you are so beautiful, Madam, that you are like a celestial being. That's why I was momentarily stunned."
"Yes, yes, Miss Lin's beauty and Young Master Ning are truly a match made in heaven."
Ning Ye also laughed and said, "The people you're discussing business with today aren't me, so even if you flatter me, it won't work. You'd better think carefully about how to satisfy my wife."
As everyone took their seats, Lin Qinshu naturally took the seat of honor, and no one else complained. After all, they knew very well who the money was.
