Zhao Jun didn't chat with Xuan Yang for long.
Soon Xuan Yang went home with his things.
The stock of fish and shrimp in front of the stall is getting smaller and smaller.
Zhao Jun estimated that it wouldn't be long before he could finish the work.
Suddenly, a familiar voice was heard from not far away.
Zhao Jun squinted and looked.
Oh, isn’t this the person I’m looking for? It’s effortless to get him.
"Hey Xiao He, don't be angry. It's not my fault. Who knew that the workshop would recruit people yesterday at noon?"
"It's just a coincidence that we're not here."
"If you ask me, you're right not to go. How can you possibly handle the work in this workshop? It's very tiring."
"Don't be angry, Xiao He. Look, there's a fish seller over there. I'll buy a few for you."
The annoying voice of Liu Bang could be heard by King Zhao from a distance.
"Don't mention the fish anymore. If you hadn't insisted on going to the Wei River to fish yesterday, maybe I would have participated in the workshop's recruitment."
"Oh, forget it, maybe I am not destined to have this fate."
Xiao He said dejectedly.
"Oh, that's enough. Don't worry. I'll buy you some fish."
Liu Ji looked at the stall and saw that there were still more than a dozen fish left and three people lined up in front of him.
He nodded with relief, knowing that it would definitely be no problem when it was his turn.
Xiao He looked at him helplessly, shook his head and stepped aside.
So she came face to face with Zhao Jun who was standing aside and staring at her.
Xiao He was stunned for a moment, while Zhao Jun smiled widely.
That’s right, when recruiting labor, you always have to act gentle.
"What a coincidence, we meet again."
Zhao Jun said with a smile.
Xiao He felt very strange. Why did it seem that although the man looked at him with gentle eyes, it was also full of weirdness?
This thought flashed through Xiao He's mind, but he didn't pay much attention to it and soon smiled as well.
"My Lord, it is indeed a coincidence."
"Your Excellency is here..."
Xiao He glanced at the fish stall opposite and already had the answer in his mind.
"Yes, this fish was caught by the Wei River yesterday. It's for sale today. Let me take a look."
Zhao Jun answered quickly.
Xiao He nodded, not knowing what to say for a moment. He just hoped that Liu Ji would finish shopping and leave quickly.
Of course, Zhao Jun would never let him go.
"Mr. Xiao He, I heard that you are quite interested in the papermaking technology in Xianyang. I wonder when you have time, I can take you to visit it."
Zhao Jun didn't say anything else, but just told Xiao He what he was most interested in at the moment.
Xiao He still had a smile on his face, but he became alert in his heart.
He had never met this lady before and had only met her once. Why did she invite him to visit the papermaking workshop? It was a very secret place and he wondered how many people wanted to get the papermaking recipe.
"You are joking, my Lord. How can a commoner like me casually enter such a secret place?"
Xiao He was still smiling, but he was extremely alert in his heart.
"Who said you are an ordinary citizen? So I will speak frankly."
"I've heard of your name by chance and I have great respect for you. You probably don't want to live a mediocre life as an ordinary citizen, do you?"
"You have great talent. I would like to invite you to be my retainer for a while. You can become an official of Qin State in a short time."
"You've seen Xianyang today, and you're well aware of Qin's strength. Staying in Qin and serving as an official will give you a bright future."
"How about it, are you interested in considering it?"
As she spoke, she stared at Xiao He.
It turned out that they wanted to recruit me. When did my name spread to Xianyang?
He lowered his head and smiled.
"Your Excellency's words are very good. I am indeed optimistic about the future of Qin. It makes no difference to me where I stay."
Xiao He paused.
"But, sir, do you have that much power? I have never heard of any female high-ranking officials in the Qin State. I am afraid there are some matters that you cannot decide."
Xiao He's tone was gentle but his words were very straightforward.
He didn't know anything about Zhao Jun, from what he thought.
At most, Zhao Jun was the daughter of a high-ranking official, perhaps holding a minor official position, managing the Wei River area.
But in terms of power, I'm afraid I can only take him for a walk around the workshop entrance.
It’s no wonder Xiao He had such thoughts. Zhao Jun’s gender at the beginning was destined to give him such an impression.
"So that's what you're worried about, sir. That's not a problem at all. You've only been in Xianyang for a short time, so it's normal that you don't know anything. I was the one who organized and built this papermaking workshop, and I'm fully familiar with the papermaking process. If you want to visit, I can take you in later."
"But the workers are on break these two days, so if you want to see the live production, you'll probably have to wait two days."
Zhao Jun looked confident, and Xiao He thought she was not lying.
Does she really understand the papermaking process?
Xiao He was lost in thought when a quarrel was heard from the other side.
"What? There's not a single one left!"
Liu Ji's surprised voice came.
Wang Ni, who was busy, recognized the person at a glance. Although she was dissatisfied, she still responded in a nice tone.
"Excuse me, the two people in front of you have already bought everything. They seem to be in charge of the restaurant, and they both bought a lot."
It wasn't that Wang Ni was deliberately trying to make things difficult for him, it was just that he was unlucky.
"What? Why is it that there is no one left when it's my turn? Are you deliberately making things difficult for me?" Liu Ji questioned.
"How is that possible? That means the people in front of us have bought all the goods. Look, there is really nothing left."
Wang Ni pointed to the empty bucket in front of her.
